Trump is just gonna try to lie his way through it: "You're getting lower prices, bigger paychecks. Inflation -- we're crushing it. And you're getting much higher wages. The only thing that's really going up big is the stock market and your 401ks."

Allred: I have some empathy for folks who, in the last election, thought, “Maybe this guy really will make my costs go down.” The problem is they were lied to. Working folks across Texas know they’re working harder for less while these openly corrupt jackasses are out there doing all kinds of stuff

A timely reminder that Liz Truss crashed the economy.
No one does hypocrisy like far right wing “defenders of free speech”👇🏼😂

Jan 2025 Truss threatens Starmer with legal action with a cease & desist letter, demanding he stop claiming she "crashed the economy"

Then claims there’s 'censorship' & 'suppression' in UK, speaking freely on toilet TV GB News🙄

I admire Stella Creasy. She has stood up for the pro-European principles she believes in. But let's be honest. This is a pretty tame piece. What is needed is a political leader from the mainstream who stands up and says: The UK's place is in the EU. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

When Britain was toying with Putin’s pet project Brexit from 2013, Putin was also planning to annex Ukraine, starting with Crimea in 2014.

We need to rejoin as a full member, return at the heart of the European Union.

We are not special.

But we can be responsible.

And Cameron was an idiot.

the plan, insofar as one exists, is to just loudly state Prices Are Down into the nearest available camera for the next three years

have fun with the midterms, guys
Q: How quickly will this affect prices at the grocery store?

TRUMP: I think the prices are gonna be, ah, going down already. I mean, the prices are way down. We brought prices way down from what it was. We inherited high prices.

It sure looks like Russian intelligence attempted to use military drones to assassinate the President of Ukraine inside an EU country.

Looking forward to more thoughts from Belgium on why freezing Russian assets is an escalatory move that might compromise the peace process.

On a purely factual point, Trevor Phillips’s column in the Times misrepresents our reporting in casting doubts on claims that there were more boys called Patel than Smith at Dulwich in 1980 (we did not report 1976 as the year it occurred). 1980 roll shows 13 Patels and 12 Smiths.
