*30%* ffs. I wonder what that figure would be by now if our media weren’t still almost exclusively populated by intellectually indolent wankers too pompous to admit that they never had the first idea what they were encouraging everyone else to vote for. (With a side of plums who deployed ‘balance’.)
Posts from me will be sporadic today because I’m traveling, which I fully expect means it will be a crazy news day
It’s a morning for the WH to hide the ketchup bottles:
Bad GDP numbers.
Not great inflation numbers.
Tariffs overturned by SCOTUS.
Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."

Today at school dismissal, I followed a suspicious pickup around for a bit, keeping an eye on them, trying to figure out if they were ICE. Then I realized they were keeping an eye on me also. Then I realized they were, in fact, other parents. Life in Minnesota, January 2026.
Jeffrey Epstein emailing Peter Thiel: Finding things on their way to collapse was much easier than finding the next bargain. ... Return to tribalism. Counter to globalization. Amazing new alliances.
Definitely seems like they destroyed the country on purpose.
The Peter Thiel connections to Epstein, Ehud Barak, Palantir and...of course....JD Vance should get more scrutiny.
Thiel created Vance and essentially hand delivered him to the White House.
Thiel is a white nationalist billionaire, part of the "Pay Pal" mafia. Buddy David Sacks is Trump's AI Czar
Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible
Insane
I'm not prone to exaggeration but this is probably the biggest scoop I've ever been involved in
Mandelson's partner took £10,000 from Epstein to pay for his osteopath course while Mandelson was de facto UK deputy prime minister, according to new files

You all may know this, but I'm just now reading that Alex Pretti had his rib broken by ICE agents one week before they shot him. They knew who he was. And must have known he was a licensed gun owner.

It's crucial to know these ICE officers knew Pretti. They broke his rib when they arrested him a week earlier. So they knew he carried a gun & had a concealed carry permit. They knew if they shot him he'd probably have a gun. And it appears they track folks—and hold grudges.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Closed Bonners stand in Covered Market.
As of Wednesday, and without warning, it seems Bonners, one of the last remaining fresh produce suppliers in Oxford's Covered Market has closed. This is very sad. Market needs diversity.
Bonners were absolute stars during Covid lockdown.

it’s v easy, 1st half of the tune, all face into middle of the circle, bourée steps in and out, then B part of the tune, you do the spinning/crossing by yourself but slightly diagonally aligned to the right, progressing anti-clockwise around the circle. No caller/partners, very wholesome dance 💃 🕺
Now that’s an English folk song I can get behind … love the musical references too!
