Oh, look at that. Turns out the ballroom is being funded by taxpayer dollars after all. Welcome to Donald Trumpโ€™s America.ย Where families and people living on the edge have lost healthcare, canโ€™t afford groceries, are losing their homes, and barely getting byโ€”and the President is using your taxpayer dollars to build a guilded ballroom and host cage fights on the White House lawn. That $600 million that could have helped support seniors or feed kidsโ€”but this is where their priorities lay. We wonโ€™t forget. washingtonpost.com/investigaโ€ฆ

80-year-old Donald Trump just wondered off from a G7 photo with world leaders as they all shout to him โ€œother side!โ€ Man, what a freaken embarrassment.

He sent 13 service members to their deaths over โ€œnot very valuable stuffโ€? 168 Iranian school girls. Thousands of civilians killed. Our bases badly damaged. Stockpiles depleted. $80 billion price tag. $6 gas. For โ€œnot very valuable stuffโ€?
Trump is backing away from getting Iran's enriched material: "You could make the case, why even bother? It's not very valuable stuff."

Now the Court case is over there needs to be a Parliamentary investigation in to this and any other 'Russian' incidents in the last 2 years. Farage has many questions to answer - he alleged an address was firebombed - he alleges hs phone was hacked by the Russians which led to public disclosure of his hidden ยฃ5million. - he has previous with Russia - never forget Nathan Gill Farage should no longer be able to hide behind the attention seeking games he is playing - these are now clear incidents of national security Wider figures should be looked at too - Robinson was in Moscow this week, he actively promoted the 'attacks' and the conspiracy story about 'rent boys'

Trump: "Qatar is the closest to Iran, physically. With other countries, I noticed they had to travel about 45 minutes to get there. With you, you could walk right across the border." There's no land border between Iran and Qatar. They're separated by the Persian Gulf.

BREAKING: JD Vance just accidentally confirmed the DIRTY SECRET about Trump's Iran deal. JD Vance went on CBS News and tried to spin Donald Trump's Iran deal. Instead, he CONFIRMED exactly how badly Trump got fleeced. CBS correspondent Ed O'Keefe asked Vance point-blank whether Iran would have access to a $300 BILLION reconstruction fund. Vance's answer? Essentially yes โ€” "funded by the Gulf Coast coalition so long as they honor their end of the obligation." So let's do the math that the Trump administration desperately doesn't want you to do. Let's compare Trump's Iran deal to the one Republicans spent a DECADE calling the worst deal in American history โ€” Barack Obama's. OBAMA'S IRAN DEAL: โ€ข $1.7 billion in unfrozen Iranian assets โ€ข In exchange for a 98% reduction in Iran's uranium stockpile โ€ข And strict limits capping enrichment at 3.7% TRUMP'S IRAN DEAL: โ€ข $24 BILLION in unfrozen assets and cash โ€ข A $300 BILLION reconstruction fund โ€ข Lifted sanctions โ€ข In exchange for an "opened Strait" under Iran and Oman's control Read those numbers again. Trump is handing Iran roughly FOURTEEN TIMES the unfrozen cash Obama did โ€” plus a $300 billion reconstruction windfall โ€” after starting a war that nobody wanted, spiking gas prices, and killing the existing ceasefire because he found negotiations "boring." AND the deal just kicks what happens with Iran's uranium stockpile to future negotiations! Republicans screamed for YEARS that Obama "gave Iran billions" and "appeased the mullahs." They called his deal treasonous. They tore it up. And now their guy is giving Iran an order of magnitude MORE money for a far weaker arrangement. But here's the part Vance accidentally revealed. He warned that Iranian hardliners would "over-emphasize the benefits that Iran gets while under-emphasizing all the things they have to concede." That's PROJECTION. Because it's the TRUMP administration that's been over-emphasizing the "wins" while burying the $24 billion, the $300 billion fund, the lifted sanctions, and the fact that the strategic Strait would fall under Iranian and Omani control. Vance is accusing Iran of doing EXACTLY what his own administration is doing โ€” hiding the real terms of the deal from the public. The man who promised to be tougher than Obama on Iran just handed Tehran the biggest payday in its history โ€” after dragging America into a war first. $1.7 billion versus $324 billion. That's the difference between Obama's "terrible" deal and Trump's "great" one. Someone should mention that. Please like and share!

Iโ€™d blame people like the former Minister for Immigration or Secretary of State for Housing. Oh wait, thatโ€™s you.
Britain is broken. Does anyone really think Andy Burnham is going to fix it? Vote @RobKenyonReform on Thursday!

MISSING COMPLETELY from the Court of Appeal judgment was that 1. Palestine Action was seeking to end a genocide 2. The weapons they destroyed at Elbit were intended for use in that genocide The Court of Appeal judges will be damned by history for siding with the genocidaires
The Court of Appeal has just described Elbit as โ€œa company pursuing a lawful businessโ€

In the USA they had Sandy Hook which showed the Government would never do anything about Gun Crime. In the UK we had Grenfell to show it doesn't matter how many poor people the rich kill, nothing will ever happen to them.

Recently, I had the opportunity to bring together a group of young men representing the next generation of leaders in our city to discuss issues facing young Black men in NYC, as well as opportunities for mentorship, leadership, public service and community organizing.ย  As we continue working to address the affordability crisis that has pushed 200,000 Black New Yorkers to leave our city over the last 20 years, it is critical that we bring the struggles ofย every New Yorker to the heart and solutions of our politics.
