Detaining and refusing entry to the country because of a meme, but, yes, do continue to lecture us (UK and Europe) about our terrible approach to free speech.

Meanwhile in New York, it appears insane Islamist Marxist Leftist Anti-Semite Zohran Mamdani has defeated Sensible Centrist Andrew Cuomo in the New York Mayoral race for the Democratic candidate.

Thoughts and prayers to the usual social media ragebaiters who are screaming about how New York is about to be come Afghanistan.

Stephen Miller has also admitted they aren't tracking the kidnap victims to any great extent, amd the DOJ don't seem to know how many people have been bundled into vans by masked gunmen.

He’s also promised to arrest Netanyahu should he visit, as ‘it’s time we met our international obligations’.

It’s finally happened, the Democrats have crossed the line. Zohran Mamdani, a 100% Communist Lunatic, has just won the Dem Primary, and is on his way to becoming Mayor. We’ve had Radical Lefties before, but this is getting a little ridiculous. He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he’s not very smart, he’s got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin’ Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him. Yes, this is a big moment in the History of our Country!

Trump having the audacity to go in on anyone's appearance is always baffling.

Anyway good for Mamdani. Despite the efforts of the corpo-Dems and billionaire owned media, a genuinely progressive platform has him as frontrunner for one of the biggest Mayor jobs in the world.

Trump really has a problem with AOC. I wonder why?

Silly thing is he gives her more plausibility than she really deserves by doing so. I mean I like her but she has nothing like the gravitas of Coon or some of the other senior Dems. Mind you she’s a pleasant change from snooze Schumer.

I find her voice really grating but she's a sharp, quick witted operator with the ability to home in and nail issues. In comparison to most of the others you see in action, she's a pretty effective operator and she seems to be working her base for genuine support over the sheer hype so many US politicians go for.

The Big Beautiful Bill rumbles ever onwards, now with a little over 40% support (which in itself would be bad) and that among the white, male, non college educated demographic (which for Trump is jaw droopingly bad)

The only way the Big Beautiful Bill doesn't kill them in the mid-terms is that a lot of the cuts are booked in years down the line, essentially Trump is causing a problem for someone(s) else down the line and hoping he/his party don't get tagged for it now. But this will remove a lot of practical health services used by a lot of Americans, many of whom vote Team Orange Moron, they're not going to love seeing health care removed to help fund a tax cut for the top 1%, and any Republicans left in the GOP aren't going to like Trump once more exploding the deficit, he's like a toddler being put in charge of the economy adding a line item for the purchase of ice-cream in vast quantities

Most GOP leaders have gone quiet on the subject, but not Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch is being very public he couldn't give a shit about the deficit, it's all about the tax cuts for billionaires for him, and he's having some fun

The senior Democrats are half the reason America is where it is right now.

Kennedy Jnr is going to be responsible for the greatest number of avoidable deaths in the history of US healthcare and around the world and it's not even making the headlines! He is a seriously deranged and dangerous individual.

He's a eugenics freak ex drug addict with worms in his brain from a family that lobotomised his aunt because he behaviour might be a hindrance to political ambitions.
