Nigel Farage regrets running 'bankrupt' Worcestershire Council
The Reform UK leader says he wishes the party
“Farage has said he wishes the party "hadn't bothered" to take minority control of Worcestershire County Council, because of its financial problems”
V much summing up his approach to power.
Grifting and gobshiting - yes please.
Hard work and responsibility - god no.

Could it be that Trump started this war mostly to help Putin, knowing that the Straight of Hormuz would eventually close, which would make Putin's oil much more valuable, allowing him to defeat Ukraine?

“So damaged is the department’s reputation for truth-telling at this point, one judge noted despairingly, that ‘the court is left with little confidence’ that government lawyers ‘can be trusted to tell the truth about anything.’ ”

If Congress wasn’t consulted to get us into this war- how is Congress going to get us out of it? That’s a real question.

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

We are a nation of 349M, yet one man decided to launch our nation into a reckless, illegal war without congressional authorization or counsel or the support of the American people. He didn’t think he had any duty to sell it or serve the people’s interests. This is why despotic rule is so dangerous.

It is wild that Trump and Hegseth saw Russia march face first into an endless quagmire in Ukraine that is wrecking Russia and economically devastating the country and said "yes let's do that, but Iran"

Think they realize that Piggy requiring "unconditional surrender" at the same time that Hegsbreath declares "No quarter for enemies" means if they surrender they will be executed? Because it does.
That will for sure motivate the Iranians to lay down their weapons. 🙄

Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.

looking past the humanitarian, economic, and multitude of other impacts this idiotic US/Israeli attack on Iran, the ecological disaster in the strait is itself just horrifying- the persian gulf is not just home to oil tankers but also a shitload of marine life and commercial fishing

Angus King: “There is a clear winner in this war, Vladimir Putin & Russia — estimates released a few hours ago are that Russia has reaped $6 billion — about $400 million a day from the increase in oil prices & the easing of sanctions — I think the record should show the real winner so far is Putin”

How many troops?
IIRC Iran fielded some 500k men against Sadam Hussein in the '70s

That seems like a really small number of troops to affect the outcome of this … situation long-term, but a really large number to put in harms way with no discernible goal or plan.
