After Jesse Watters brings on Scott Baio to gripe about George Clooney, Hannity kicks off his show with the Joe Biden autopen conspiracy in Fox’s alternate universe they created to make the faithful feel safe in their happy place owning the libs.

Yeah. Two magnificent stags, antlers locked, in a battle to the death... by typing mean public messages to each other, like two teenage cheerleaders, who fell out over a boyfriend.

"The two Labour Party groups to keep together are not Left and Right, but intellectual progressives and blue collar trade unionists. Both groups contain people from the Left and Right." I found this, from Alan Johnson, really thought provoking.

Senior US Senator questions the Education Secretary's budget. Their figures are off by nine-hundred-and-eighty-five BILLION dollars. That's 98.5%. And @forbes.com - THE BUSINESS MAGAZINE, FORBES - puts it out as bona fide. In fact, another senator tries to correct the comedy maths and is cut off. 😬

I see we are already at the "lively debate" stage of Pochin's Reform UK career, one month in. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I would describe this as "word salad", but the elements are not crisp or distinct enough. This is "word soup". No - "cream of word soup".

As we were walking out of the studio, Alan said: "What a great chat that was! We had a real conversation." It's the best review.

“The media’s orientation towards the Labour government is that nothing it can possibly do will be enough and anything it suggests will be too expensive.”  🎧👇

Finally caught up with this and it's another superb episode. Made me realise that Kamala Harris should probably be called "Cassandra" Harris because, as the memes say - she tried to warn us!

Finally got round to donating so that we can have Series 2 of Podyssey by @alexpodyssey.bsky.social. It is a really beautifully rendered re-telling of the Greek myths, helped by his humour + actor voice, + with great music too. Here is the first one on Narcissus podcasts.apple.com/cy/podcast/a...

"MY HELL" by Susan. My favourite bit of this is that she complains there was just too much rice on the buffet and that for that sort of money she could have gone to the Caribbean. That famously rice-free part of the world.

By far my favorite part of South Korean elections: election night graphics. SBS television station kills it EVERY. TIME. They play these clips all night and they get more and more unhinged and creative as the night goes on.
