BREAKING: George W. Bush's brother Neil just dropped a BOMB on MAGA by proudly announcing that he voted for James Talarico in the Texas Senate race. This just gave Republicans a flashing green light to vote blue... "I have never posted a political message on Facebook not wanting to offend friends whose views may be very different than mine. I'm breaking that tradition because I voted early today, and I voted for James Talarico for the United States Senate," Bush, the child of the late President George H.W. Bush wrote on Facebook. "My vote was motivated by two things: deep concern about Ken Paxton's record and genuine admiration for the character and principles I see in James Talarico," he continued. "I have been deeply troubled by Paxton's conduct as Texas Attorney General, particularly his decision to challenge the results of the 2020 presidential election in other states in an effort to help Donald Trump remain in power. I believe that effort was an affront to our democratic institutions and the peaceful transfer of power. My concerns about his judgment and conduct are hardly mine alone. He was impeached by the Republican-controlled Texas House, although subsequently acquitted by the Texas Senate." "More broadly, I believe Donald Trump and those who have enabled him have done enormous damage to the Republican Party. I worry about a political culture in which loyalty to an individual takes precedence over loyalty to principle, and where those who hold power begin to believe they are no longer accountable." "But my vote today was about much more than opposition to Ken Paxton." "I've never met James Talarico, but I have been enormously impressed by the way he approaches complicated and controversial issues. He speaks with respect, seeks common ground, and seems genuinely interested in bringing people together rather than driving them apart. His faith appears to be a deeply rooted source of humility, compassion, and conviction rather than a political weapon." I see in him the qualities I admire most in public servants: integrity, civility, humility, and a willingness to listen to those with whom he disagrees. My impression is that he is a principled, pragmatic leader who understands that public office is a responsibility to serve, not an entitlement to power." "I have been a Republican for most of my life, and I still believe deeply in many traditional Republican principles. But character matters more than party affiliation. Our democracy depends on leaders who respect our institutions, tell the truth, accept accountability, and seek to unite rather than divide." "Today, I voted against a style of politics that I believe has damaged our country. More importantly, I voted for the kind of character and leadership I hope will help heal it," he concluded. Bravo, Mr. Bush! We commend you for speaking out boldly during these crucial midterm elections. Ken Paxton is a stone-cold crook who was impeached for bribery by his own party as state attorney general. He has zero interest in serving the people of Texas if he wins and will instead work to line his own pockets, accumulate personal power, and rubber-stamp Trump's destructive agenda. Meanwhile, James Talarico is a devout Christian who is committed to fighting for better healthcare, an end to pointless wars, livable wages, more housing construction to restore the American Dream, and banning Congressional stock trading. The Bush family still wields a great deal of influence in Texas, so this announcement is sure to cause political shockwaves. If you're a Republican who genuinely loves this country, it's time to cross the aisle and vote for James Talarico. Please ❤️ and share to thank Neil Bush!

Not sure who you’re aiming at here. Proper people don’t need the obvious idiocy explaining, and idiots can’t be educated away from idiocy, especially the 2 people you reference. You’re right of course, but what’s the point ?

BREAKING: GET HIM! Reporter Andrew Feinberg publicly humiliates Trump after he SNAPPED at him in the Oval Office and claimed to not know who he is. The dementia is undeniable now... "I had told him exactly who I was not five minutes before this exchange," Feinberg, a journalist for The Independent, wrote on X in response to a viral clip of Trump attacking him earlier today. "No, no, listen to you!" a dull-faced, visibly confused Trump says in the video, pointing at the reporter. "Hey! I'm not playing. You better— You better— I don't know who the hell you are but you better be careful." The inexplicable outburst had all of the hallmarks of a dementia patient lashing out in befuddlement. People suffering from this kind of cognitive decline often forget names and faces and end up angry, scared, and mean. You don't even have to do anything upsetting to set them off. Their own uncontrollable emotions do that. Tellingly, it wasn't the only bizarre moment during the Oval Office press conference today. Trump also went after Feinberg for asking a different harmless question and growled at him in a strange voice, calling him a "sick person." This President is clearly in free fall and the continued silence of the Republican Party is a damning indictment of their entire movement. These cowards are so addicted to power that they are going to let this man run the country into the ground as his brain melts out of his ears. Please ❤️ and share if you support invoking the 25th Amendment!

Why have you been claiming £25k-39k a year for a London flat? The commute from your owned property is easy. You could stay at a Premier Inn on odd nights when you can't get back. You don't need a fecking 3k a month London flat. Parasite.
Look at this chart 👇 Many if not most of the children on DLA will go onto PIP. Around half of children who get DLA become NEETs. There’s a clear path from child DLA to PIP to a lifetime on benefits. We must change this.

The NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles almost killed Jalen Hurts for a Week 5 international showcase. ​The full details of what happened behind closed doors in London just surfaced, and the negligence is staggering. ​Before kickoff in London, Hurts was in a hospital bed until 4:00 AM undergoing emergency vascular testing. Medical staff instructed him not to sleep because sleep was considered an active health risk. ​Instead of shutting down their $255 million franchise quarterback, the team cleared him to play 60 minutes of brutal, high-impact collision football on zero sleep. ​Then, they loaded him onto a pressurized, 8-hour transatlantic flight back to Philadelphia. ​Every doctor on the planet knows that long-haul flights and cabin pressure are the exact triggers that cause lower-extremity blood clots to break free. The Eagles spent days assuring the public it was just a "minor, superficial calf clot". ​Now the truth comes out: the clot dislodged, shot through his bloodstream, and caused multiple pulmonary emboli in his lungs. ​Hurts is officially out for the season, placed on blood thinners where taking a single routine tackle could cause a fatal internal hemorrhage. ​He isn't just lucky to play football again, he is lucky to be alive. ​When the NFL preaches "player safety," remember this moment. They ran a human being into the ground for television ratings in the UK, almost lost him to a preventable medical catastrophe, and cratered their entire season in the process. ​Who inside that building signed off on letting him play and board that flight?

Watched 45 minutes of #bbcbreakfast and still no mention of ITV documentary about Reform. What a surprise, would normally have a 10 minute speech by Mason if this was about Labour.

Donald Trump canceled his scheduled Oct. 16 deposition in his lawsuit against the BBC because of "matters of national importance." The BBC alerts the judge that those matters were: a rally in Dalton, Ga. and a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago.

The Reform documentary wasn’t just about ‘hurty words’. One or more Reform Cllrs seemed to be saying they declined planning permissions based on the ethnicity of applicants. Should be a police matter.

The shocking thing about the @ITV Reform exposé is that I wasn't shocked at all, it showed the root & branch Reform members to be exactly as I thought them to be, vile, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic bigots. The actual shocking thing will be that people will still support them

An important thing to remember regarding the ITV exposé: What we’ve seen, though horrific, probably isn’t even the worst. They won’t release the money shot before it’s aired. It is very likely that they have worse. Though I like the drip feed approach, very damaging.
