'How Is She Serious?': Critics Mock 'Delusional' Melania Trump After Bonkers Speech The first lady had a lot to say about herself at a White House event this week.

OMFG๐Ÿคข๐Ÿคฎ

โ€œIn solitude, my creative mind dances, filling my imagination with originality,โ€ she said, then listed all of her roles: โ€œmother, humanitarian, philanthropist, and entrepreneur.โ€

Why isnโ€™t Melania being made to testify about Epstein. She hung out with him. Hillary didnโ€™t even know him.

To avoid tariffs, the UK also promised that the NHS would buy more drugs from US pharma companies.

๐Ÿšจ This deal could cost the NHS millions - but the government hasn't published its own impact assessment.

Nobody Is Talking About What This War Is Doing to the Water Acid rain on Tehran. 68 oil tankers trapped at Hormuz. Desalination plants hit. 300+ environmental incidents in 11 days. The Gulf is being poisoned.

Not in Iran alone โ€“ across Iran, Iraq, Israel, Kuwait, Jordan, Cyprus, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Oman. Three hundred incidents in eleven days.

It will enrage but not surprise you to learn that the guy whose job it was to check targets to make sure theyโ€™re not schools before we bomb them got fired during the transition to the Trump administration

Palantir CEO Makes Shocking Confession on Disrupting Democratic Power Theyโ€™re saying the quiet part out loud now.

"Palantir CEO Alex Karp thinks his AI technology will lessen the power of 'highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat' while increasing the power of working-class men."

Remind me again why Labour is shoving vast public contracts down its throat?

He always says it will remain free at point of use. What he isn't saying is the insurance premiums that you may to get there. Oh, and it will go up like car insurance if you make a claim. The turkeys vote for Christmas..

My second List in 24 hours. Marking major reform as the Hereditary Bill has finally passed. A new Civil Society Council is formed and the majority of water bill increases have been stopped. Good news for UK startups and those producing wind turbines. Labour is rebuilding Britain

When Robert Jenrick was Housing Minister, he rolled out a โ€œGreen Housing Revolutionโ€:

It includes Heat Pumps, reducing fossil fuels, solar, preventing climate change etc.

Heโ€™s now pretending heโ€™s Mr Reform anti-Net Zero.

Yeah, not enough time to fact check either, by that time the news cycle has moved on to the latest ridiculous statement. I think this is what Adam Curtis was aiming at with Hypernormalisation. We become numb to atrocities. Shameful.

This man doesnโ€™t belong anywhere near our White House. If it wasnโ€™t clear to people who voted for him because they believed โ€œheโ€™s good business man,โ€ this is an example of how he has managed to bankrupt 3 casinos.

Itโ€™s time to put PawPaw somewhere & tell him itโ€™s the special room to โ€œmake deals.โ€
