A new book, 'The Chain', will chart 126 years of the office of Lord Mayor in Cork from 1900. It will also track the current Mayoral term from June 2026 to June 2027.

This is who the President of the United States calls an ape. His brain is pure rot. Repost this image of our classy former First Lady, Michelle Obama. Every single Republican member of Congress should be denouncing this. Not just a select few. They are all complicit.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

She wasn’t my preferred candidate but she is now my President. She is the first citizen of the country and as such I respect her position and wish her the very best of luck in her role. President elect Connolly has spoken about representing all and I hope that she is successful at that.

More than 200 journalists have now been killed by the IDF in Gaza. And so many journalists here haven’t expressed a single sliver of solidarity or outrage about it.

Wall to wall hacks sharing solemn “press freedom” posts whenever Donald Trump calls Chuck Blastoise of WBYN News a silly name - but multiple targeted strikes on the only ones documenting Gaza and it’s crickets. Shameful.

If you call yourself Irish in America, now’s the time to mean it. Ireland’s being targeted by the GOP for opposing genocide. We know what suffering looks like — many of your families fled it. So if you love the land, sing the songs, drink the pints — stand up for Ireland now.

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to? HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

“Youssef!… I pray for you.” The Pope held regular calls with the parish in Gaza - even during his lengthy period of illness. (This video from January)

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Pope Francis. A man of compassion, humility, and unwavering faith, he dedicated his life to serving others and challenging us all to care more for the poor, the planet, and each other. May he rest in peace, and may his legacy of mercy and justice live on.

92 years ago today: The Reichstag passes the Enabling Act ("Law to Remedy the Distress of People and Reich"), giving the Chancellor, Adolf Hitler, power to make and enforce laws. The Center Party provides decisive support. With the Communist Party banned, Social Democrats are alone in opposition.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

And there it is. Putin’s lifelong dream. After years of relentless Russian propaganda, now fully embraced by the American president and the world’s richest oligarch, millions of Americans are convinced that this is a good plan because Europe is an enemy and Putin is our friend.
