Starting a nuclear arms race and possible war, all because he doesn't want anyone to see his name in the Epstein files
One deranged decree, and 30 years of global restraint go up in radioactive smoke.
He doesn’t even know which department controls nuclear testing. (It’s the DOE, not the DOD.) These people are so dangerously ignorant, they could end the world by accident.
When will Republicans say enough?!

Can we all just openly agree that "culturally coherent" means "white"?
Seems silly to dress up racism with nonsense word salad. Lam should be proud of her bigotry, it's all she's got

People who have come to the United Kingdom legally, played by the rules and made it their home do not need to “go home”. This is their home.

Comer: The evidence we gathered does not implicate President Trump in any way. Public reporting, survivor testimony, and official documents show that Bill Clinton had far closer ties to Epstein

How on earth can Starmer miss every open goal?
All they had to do was say "frankly the Conservatives are now openly racist"
But instead they went for "those Tories have some great ideas, but we can do them a bit better"
