RIP Brigitte Bardot (1934-2025). Images from Le Mepris 1963. Casa Malaparte Capri. Sensational. 🙏🏻🇫🇷

Brigitte Bardot, French screen legend, dies aged 91

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Fun fact, Kenwood Ladies' Pond and its actual members voted to allow trans women to use that space Sex Matters, who don't use that space, took issue with that. Nothing says feminism by telling women you know what they want more than they do

A reminder that this is the same man who has just spent the past week calling all the Jewish victims of his own horrific anti-semitic abuse liars

There hasn’t been enough appreciation for how thoroughly BENNIE THOMPSON humiliated FBI official GLASHEEN after he tried to sell the lie that ANTIFA is the top domestic terror threat. The claim collapsed because it’s a cover. Check my latest… open.substack.com/pub/cwebbstu...

Make Congress take action and unmask ICE!

Fact-check: true

BIG NEWS: A federal grand jury has AGAIN refused to indict NY AG Letitia James in the Eastern District of Virginia — this time in Alexandria. This is just a week after the DOJ tried and failed to secure a grand jury indictment in Norfolk.

Help me out. So the US is worried that Europe is suppressing free speech on social media, but at the same time want to access and review five years worth of SM speech before access to the USA? Can someone please make this new upside down 🙃 dystopian USA make sense! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Shamina Begum must be held accountable for her actions when she was 15. Whereas I should not, because I was a mere child.

We need a national inquiry into Russian interference in our democracy now. What is this govt waiting for?

The orange felon insults yet another female reporter by calling CNN’s Kaitlan Collins “stupid and nasty” after she inquired about the price of his trashy dictator ballroom after it increased by another $100M. This is what happens when you normalize a criminal for a decade.

Interesting threat. Let’s hope Musk bans from x all @ec.europa.eu members, and @consilium.europa.eu and @europarl.europa.eu , and indeed everyone in Europe. Actually they should all leave anyway and join🦋

The Trump National Security Strategy is bonkers in many ways but this objective stood out: "Cultivating resistance to Europe’s current trajectory within European nations" Making their strategy of supporting radical right and extremist parties explicit.

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

71 million views. Another brilliant PR move by the outstanding WH comms team. They owned the libs again by attacking and demeaning Sabrina just because she asked them not to steal her music for one of their sick deportation videos. Thanks for the new voters.

These are the numbers we need to remember 🚨 "Three quarters of children in poverty are in working families." "The two-child benefit cap dragged hundreds of thousands of children into poverty." No child should grow up in poverty.

"This explains why the administration refuses to declassify the memo...If the public saw how flimsy the legal footing is, they’d see the president is using wartime powers he does not have to kill civilians he cannot legally target..." open.substack.com/pub/defiance...

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels. Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on. And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking. Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy. It's a power grab.

This should have been a good PMQs for Kemi Badenoch but I'm not sure it was. A bit unfocused, and felt like it was fighting the battle of a few days ago, given Reeves' position isn't really under any threat. Keir Starmer sounded quite strong on child poverty.

Trump's cabinet responds to his racist diatribe with applause and then Trump abruptly wraps up the meeting

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

He's making it a talking point. A sensible place to begin.

Oh look! ⬇️ But for some reason this isn't the top headline on the BBC after three days of them headlining the opposite. I guess the right wing press aren't running with this latest twist. That must be the reason why. 🤔 #Reeves #Budget #obr

If Admiral Bradley didn’t realize before that these cowards were setting him up to take the fall, he knows it now. Time to hire a good lawyer.

Sadly relevant today.

Tories desperate to keep this going and getting more hysterical by the minute. If ppl actually decided to leave the country between 4/11 and budget day because of a fear of higher taxes, that's their prob. Put one on the news at 1 and lets hear the thought process 😂🤣#Badenoch #BudgetHysteria #Cope

If you would like to know the actual problems with the budget I set it all out in detail here. As Stephen says the problem is the headroom isn't really there. Not that Reeves had loads of spare cash... samf.substack.com/p/survival-f...

Have the Tories lost their minds? Am I the only one who isn't seeing this? The UK Treasury preparing a budget and being accused of market manipulation? The Tories daily seeming more unhinged and hysterical. #Badenoch #Reeves #Budget2025 #ToryHysteria

Go Chuck!

Fairly certain Kemi Badenoch is hoping that nobody has noticed this. Pretty brazen...

You know, apropos of nothing in particular, and although I haven't researched it yet, I strongly suspect that a president starting a foreign war to distract from his extensive ties with child sex traffickers is probably a high crime or misdemeanor under the Constitution's impeachment clauses.

Says the guy who auto-penned nearly 1600 pardons for January 6

On Truss & Kwarteng in ‘22. Allister Heath, Telegraph: “the best budget I have ever heard a British chancellor deliver". Alex Brummer, Mail: “a genuine Tory package elbowing to one side the Treasury's fiscal conservatism". These men will now be paid actual money for their analysis of today’s budget.
