Another Durham Reform councillor with an eye for detail... Reform UK Councillor Christine Blatchford, Durham put on her Register of Interests for the council that she's a member of 'Free Speech Nation'. Would that be the GBNews talk show? Surely that's a Freudian slip of Free Speech Union.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Why did Eric Schmitt fuck up his gotcha moment so badly? No one involved considered the possibility that Jack Smith attended a women’s basketball game. A MAGAt undone by misogyny. Not at all surprising.

Beyond the fact that it’s incredibly illegal and corrupt to use taxpayer dollars to run political ads on television, there’s another problem with re-running old ads like this: the messaging only reminds everyone what a fraud you are.

Black-and-white image of Donald Trump standing in a hallway from a recent ad he ran on TV with taxpayer funds. White subtitle text on a black bar at the bottom displays what Trump’s voiceover says in the ad: “we will expel the warmongers from our government.”

I think some people in the UK still may not realize how slavishly reform mimics Trump, whose explicit message was “only I can fix America” and whose “plan” consisted of nothing but slogans (and, often, the denial of plans they actually had) — all tailored to resentful people looking for a scapegoat.

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.

Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
