Jarell Quansah has his red card ban extended to two matches. FIFA will consider an appeal, if the England defender can prove he’s either American or Argentinian or a brown envelope stuffed with cash

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

“Last year, Microsoft made $101 billion in profits, got a $12.5 billion tax break from Trump & paid its CEO $96 million. This year, it’s raising the price of an Xbox by $150 & eliminating 3,200 jobs. Please don’t tell me corporate tax breaks create jobs. It never trickles down.” - Bernie Sanders

Never before has a politician announced their intention to run for re-election on an explicitly pro-sleaze, anti-transparency ticket. Never before has a politician gloried in having enriched themselves by breaking the rules, and then demanded a mandate to continue doing so indefinitely

Nigel Farage’s 'Pro-Sleaze' By-Election Is A Sign Of Terminal Weakness
The Reform leader's desperate decision to call a back-me-or-sack-me by-election is a sign of a politician who knows he is finally being exposed for the man he really is, argues Adam Bienkov

The allegations against Farage are mounting. So he resigns to avoid being sanctioned by parliament. This by-election is all about him, not the people of Clacton or the country. @zackpolanski.bsky.social was right: "he will do anything...if it personally benefits him."

Badenough gets worse. The Tories slashed military personnel numbers and hit the lowest %of GDP for defence during their 14 year reign of error - and their Brexit deprives the Treasury of £65bn+ every year. But it's Labour not doing enough... As for welfare, the current %GDP is nothing remarkable.
