Ossoff: "The president, surrounded by enablers in the West Wing, is playing golf, trading stock, & decorating his ballroom. It is a disgrace. All while American families in Georgia and across the country pay more for just about everything as a direct result of his failed economic and foreign policy"

The Prime Minister’s plan to offer rapid routes to settlement for those earning six-figure salaries whilst punishing and making lower-paid workers wait up to 15 years appears to be based on the notion that care workers are “low-skilled” because they are low-paid - its an absolute disgrace.

WATCH — @senpeterwelch walks through a no-bid $143,000,000 contract that went to @KristiNoem’s spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin’s husband’s company that had just been formed. She should be impeached for this outrageous scandal alone. Yet it’s barely a blip in this corrupt regime.

Faced with the deranged threats and wild madness of Trump’s presidency, our Brexit ‘sovereignty’ couldn’t be more costly… and yet worthless. Farage and Badenoch would rather bend the knee to the US monster than admit that our future is with Europe. The deceit is pathological. Sociopathic. Ruinous.

Screenshot of an X post by Ron Filipkowski criticizing a statement about China and Taiwan. The post quotes Acyn, who paraphrases Stephen Miller saying Denmark is a tiny country with a tiny economy and military, cannot defend Greenland, and that to control a territory you must be able to defend it. Below is a TV still of Stephen Miller speaking on Fox News, with a chyron about Trump and Greenland and a “BREAKING NEWS” banner.
