Trump gets angry at Fox News' Peter Doocy for asking about Russia helping Iran to kill Americans during his roundtable on college sports.
Trump: "What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else."
Priorities for the US Commander in Chief.
Another chaotic week in Trumpworld: Kristi Noem is suddenly out at DHS after contentious hearings, the DOJ releases Epstein documents tied to a survivor accusing Trump of assault when she was a teen, and the administration struggles to explain its expanding war with Iran.

Trump wants this guy in charge of Homeland Security.

Even if they donβt surrender, we will call that an unconditional surrender and declare victory. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Sharpton: "The problem is not Trump. The problem is us. What happened to us?"
Sharpton: "We're still here! We've come this far by faith. It was against the law to read and write! It was against the law to marry, but we've come this far by faith. I don't care what they do in Washington, I care what we do in the community. We've beat people bigger than Trump!"
Trump: "We just concluded a very good meeting with the largest U.S. Defense Manufacturing Companies where we discussed Production and Production Schedules. They have agreed to quadruple Production of the 'Exquisite Class' Weaponry in that we want to reach, as rapidly as possible, the highest levels of quantity. Expansion began three months prior to the meeting, and Plants and Production of many of these Weapons are already under way. We have a virtually unlimited supply of Medium and Upper Medium Grade Munitions, which we are using, as an example, in Iran, and recently used in Venezuela. Regardless, however, we have also increased Orders at these levels. The Companies represented were the CEOs of BAE Systems, Boeing, Honeywell Aerospace, L3Harris Missile Solutions, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Raytheon. The meeting concluded with another meeting scheduled in two months. States all over the Country are bidding for these new Plants. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

JD does not understand courtesy.
You donβt have to be an expert to know that βUNCONDITIONAL SURRENDERβ means boots on the ground.
Trump is broadcasting a plan for the escalation of his war.
He is deluded and drunk on power and the adoration of many simpletons whilst cronies all benefitting financially.
Anyone who wants Britain to join the war in Iran needs their head examined open.substack.com/pub/iandunt/...
I remember when βBrexit Means Brexitβ became a way for silly people to insist that they supported something they could neither justify nor explain. Obviously the context is very different, but something similar is already happening with the βwarβ in Iran. And itβs mostly the same people doing it.
Fantastic council by-election result.
Labour gain from Reform, with increased vote share for Labour.
This is an area where Reform have been in charge for 10 months and it's seeing votes switching from Reform to Labour.
Exactly as we said would happen when people experienced Reform!
