Fecking hell !

I largely expected the Supreme Court's ruling on meaning of "woman" under the Equality Act tbh. Puts onus on legislators to be explicit. But some unintended consequences occur to me straight away. Will cynical litigants now demand any woman taking action under the EA prove she was born a woman? 1/2

NEWS: Hong Kong has suspended postal service for all goods being sent to the United States, saying the U.S is "unreasonable, bullying, and imposing tariffs abusively."

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Absolutely. Without the BBC Farage would have remained a nobody.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Need this every time

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

Yes Liz. Do it. This'll be the comedy event of the summer.

I’ve always been perplexed by people who need to leave the planet in order to realise how precious and beautiful it is.

China just halted orders of all Boeing planes. This is a major strategic failure for Trump.

We are now at the point where the AP can write this as if its a simple background fact and it sparks no outrage: "Trump has made no secret of his plans to use the power of the federal government to target domestic political adversaries."

Good piece on the "decadent cynics of the new right" who played with fire and are surprised to find themselves, like America, in flames www.nytimes.com/2025/04/14/o...

This is great news. A good babystep.

"First, Trump is perfectly willing to destroy the economy as he awaits political favors. After all, it’s not him suffering the consequences of a cratering economy. Second, while Tim Cook can afford to pay him off, it’s the mom & pop shops that can’t petition the king for carveouts being sacrificed."

Wow. But also, good!

Today we mourn the loss of Mrs. Edna Pemberton—a fierce advocate, a fearless voice, and a true community leader. She didn’t just believe in change—she was the change. North Texas and the world are better because of the work she did and the lives she touched. May she rest in power.
