Here are 22 times Katie Zacharia blatantly lied about being a lawyer. She’s perfect for the Trump administration. She’s pathological.

At 16, Corion Evans jumped into the Pascagoula River after a car carrying three teenage girls plunged into the water. He rescued all three, then swam back out to save a police officer who was also struggling. In one night, he helped save four lives.

A grocery store in Pforzheim, Germany, published a job vacancy on Facebook. A reply reads: "It would be better if you hire Germans w/o migration background, otherwise my family won't shop with you anymore." The store's reply is something to behold. I append a translation. [Post & reply verified]
Wäre besser ihr stellt Deutsche ohne Migrationshintergrund ein ansonsten kauft meine Familie nicht mehr bei euch ein.edekaberger Sehr geehrter Herr Kritter,

vielen Dank für Ihren aufschlussreichen Kommentar unter unserer Stellenanzeige. Offenbar ist uns bei unserer Personalpolitik ein schwerwiegender Fehler unterlaufen.

Wir müssen nämlich gestehen: Bei uns arbeiten tatsächlich Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund! Und jetzt halten Sie sich fest: Wir haben sie sogar ganz bewusst eingestellt!

Ohne Stammbaumprüfung, ohne Herkunftsnachweis und ohne zu kontrollieren, ob die Großeltern auch wirklich deutsch genug waren.

Wie konnten wir nur?!

Stattdessen haben wir auf völlig nebensächliche Dinge wie Qualifikation, Freundlichkeit, Zuverlässigkeit und Engagement geachtet.

Und es kommt noch schlimmer, Herr Kritter!

Unsere Mitarbeiter unterschiedlichster Nationalitäten arbeiten nicht nur miteinander, sie lachen, unterstützen sich gegenseitig und feiern sogar zusammen. Bei unserem letzten Mitarbeiterfest wurde neben bayerischer Musik auch zu Bollywood getanzt. Unfassbar, oder?

Nun kündigen Sie an, dass Ihre Familie deshalb nicht mehr bei uns einkaufen möchte.

Das trifft uns natürlich hart.

Wissen Sie aber, was uns tatsächlich hart treffen würde?

Wenn all unsere Mitarbeiter mit Migrationshintergrund plötzlich nicht mehr da wären. Dann könnten wir unsere Märkte nämlich gleich schließen!

Denn diese Menschen sind keine austauschbaren Arbeitskräfte, sondern ein unverzichtbarer Teil unseres Teams. Sie leisten jeden Tag großartige Arbeit und verdienen dafür Respekt statt Vorurteile!

Deshalb sagen wir Ihnen ganz deutlich:

Unsere Mitarbeiter sind keine Verhandlungsmasse. Menschenwürde ist keine Frage des Umsatzes. Und Rassismus hat bei uns keinen Platz!

Wir sind stolz auf unser internationales Team und werden ganz sicher niemanden wegen seiner Herkunft ausgrenzen, nur um einen Kunden zu halten.

Lieber verzichten wir auf Ihren Einkauf als auf unsere Werte.

Herzliche Grüße von einem Arbeitgeber, der auch weiterhin Menschen nach ihrem Können und Charakter beurteilt. Nicht nach ihrem Stammb…

"An investigation uncovered more than 130 official suppliers in the UK willing to sell cloned number plates" This is such a clear example of where the UK is good at creating laws, and often terrible at enforcing them. Laws are pointless if they're not implemented and *seen* to be implemented.

Chris Mason doesn’t voice outrage & disgust felt re Reforms rank racism exposed on ITV He amplifies it’s defence FFS Reform "had improved and prioritised its vetting procedures, but from time to time..” Farage ‘wants to get rid of those he has called "bad apples”’ Making it sound like bad luck 🤬

I have never seen coverage of a live trial, one involving allegations of multiple sex attacks on multiple women, framed in a more distasteful way. It's not 'Fame under fire' it's a rape trial. And it involves actual women. And this from the *checks notes* BBC
BBC screengrab from within their Russell Brand trial coverage.  Image of Brand in 70s-style aviator glasses, with earpods in, blank expression. Long dark wavy hair, black and grey beard, dark unbuttoned shirt. All on a fire red/orange and black background
BBC logo top and centre, underneath a subdeck reading: Fame Under Fire. Then the headline 'Russell Brand On Trial'. 
The words 'fire'and 'trial' are coloured to look like they are glowing orange at the bottom

Interference is easy to prove or disprove if, unlike Boris Johnson, you can be bothered to investigate, influence almost impossible. The average Brexit voter would not be able to tell you which lies - or liars - they found most persuasive. Many of them still claim they didn't fall for any of them.
