“It is a dread many of us will be feeling lately: that there is an ugliness infecting our politics - and an increasing chasm between the country we want to be, the country we actually are, and the politicians we elect.” My col. on Reform and what’s next. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Look at how Reform speaks about minorities. Why would Labour want to mimic this nasty party? | Frances Ryan

The British public is more liberal and tolerant than you would believe from our politicians. Time for Keir Starmer to appeal to Britain’s best side, says Guardian columnist Frances Ryan

More than 200 flights from and into Newark Airport had been delayed as of Monday morning. Disruptions have prompted United Airlines to cut nearly three dozen round-trip flights per day at the New Jersey airport. We explain what's going on. nyti.ms/42L2aKE

Instead of simply focusing on lowering prices "on Day One", Trump's asinine tariff policy, erratic behavior, and mass firings of patriotic public servants have crushed families and produced uncertainty in the markets, as he destroys at lightning speed the economy Biden rebuilt. #DonTheCon

Al Gore didn’t hold back: The Trump admin is “attacking the heart of truth,” twisting facts like the Nazis did in the 1930s. From climate denial to rewriting the Ukraine war, it’s all about power—not reality. Gore warned the U.S. is under siege—and every former leader should speak out like he did.

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.
