Is it safe to assume that Russia itself now has access to computers inside the US Treasury, IRS, FAA, FBI, CIA, etc.?

Mexico has a Nobel Prize winning President. USA has a convicted felon as a President.

Oh.

How the Observer marks International Women's Day 👇🏻.

All of the women who have raced in the FIM motorcycling world championship. Ana Carrasco became the first woman to win a world championship in the WorldSSP300 class in 2018. Beryl Swain was a real badass. She raced competitively against men, so the FIM revoked her licence and banned her

The true form always comes to light.

Poor Alexander Armstrong he only has £3.9m and he is 'extremely poor' and unable to pay his kids Private School fees.

Historically, the “king” would have a taster to ward off assassination. Poison would not be necessary in this case. Just encouragement to eat all his favorite foods as much as possible. Extra buttery. Extra cheese. Low quality meat. Desserts. Great ones, offered more often and in greater quantity.

Apparently Tesla isn't selling any cars which also means it's not selling carbon credits. It made 2.7 billion in carbon credits last year. Carbon credits is largely what has kept the company afloat

Push ups

Public opinion of Putin and Trump I'm Spain, France, UK and Italy. For some peculiar reason the graphs look better on their side.

No shortage of selective outrage

Terribly convenient, isn't it, for a generation in power which has ruthlessly screwed young people - house prices, tuition fees and grants, environmental breakdown, hostility to their speech and identity - to blame smart phones for their poor mental health.

My friend sent me this. One cafe has had enough. 🤣😆

What happened when they swabbed my bollock at airport security and stone clearing wins a BIG award (and my sex appeal has not dampened with age) Today's substack richardherring.substack.com/p/swabbing-m...
