Friends, I have an incredible update. I met a friend from Jersey the other day who was visiting and she almost got fined on the Luas with no ticket because *drumroll please* she thought it was free!
I had to explain to her why I was absolutely dying when she told me this.

On Today before 7 a former Trump official claimed without challenge that US spending on Ukraine far outweighs that of Europe (at least contestable) and that Europe was now irrelevant to the peace talks. 30 mins later Steve Rosenberg made clear that Europe’s irrelevance was a Kremlin talking point

Times have been tough in this Afghani town ever since the woke mob shut down the old poppy seed factory. So when Vladimir Putin promised to pay everyone to create MAGA Twitter accounts, they finally had something to cheer about again. Then Twitter turned on its new public location feature.

My three-year-old was reading MAGA Twitter when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why do the people in Pakistan love the nice orange man so much?" And when I told her "Because he's the only American president who never started any new wars," she started crying.

The Pakistanis producing pro-Trump content on social media may hail from a different part of the world than American Trump supporters, but they are motivated by the same underlying emotion: economic anxiety.
