Charlie Kirk oversells tickets for Trump event, 100's queueing for hours refused entry

Including one woman in this clip who spent $1000 on air tickets from New York. They are not happy campers. Especially having to stand for 4 hours in 115-degree heat. What a shame.

Fifty to be indicted in Georgia in the next three weeks?

Been following this guy for a while and he seems pretty reliable.

Walt Nauta never received a single "Thank You" from Trump...

...while he performed his duties at the White House (and presumably at Mar-A-Lago since), according to a report on Lawrence's show last night. Now he's spotted dining with Trump and his lawyers as the orange oaf has to keep him onside. Trump obviously treats him as little more than a lackey. I saw a photo of the pair of them on the golf course and Nauta was straightening Trump's collar for him. Obviously the lazy lump of lard likes the idea of not having to lift a finger for himself. I hope Nauta sees sense and flips.

TFG does not look a well man

Clip where he is being asked if he will debate DeSantis. Sounds weary and looks like his face is melting. Those 3.a.m 'Truth' posting sessions are really coming home to roost.

'Keith Arsewank' is currently trending in the UK

After this delightful individual posted on Twitter that teachers should be armed after the horrendous mass shooting in Nashville, Brits, with their love of juvenile humour, have made much sport with his rather unfortunate name.

Hillary Clinton visited my home town yesterday !

Invited by David Miliband, former Labour MP for South Shields in the North East of England, Hillary Clinton was invited to deliver the annual South Shields lecture. (Wish I could have attended, but the tickets were oversubscribed by 3,000 !) She also sampled some famous local cuisine and revealed her great-grandfather had local roots (a County Durham miner). She looks well and was in great form with the locals !

Kensington resident tells radio host "I'll move out if Grenfell survivors move in"

A Kensington resident told a shocked radio presenter she would move out if Grenfell Tower families were rehoused in her private block.

The woman, called Donna, complained to LBC host Shelagh Fogarty that if people made homeless in the blaze moved into her luxury building for free, it would be unfair.

It comes after it was revealed 68 social housing flats in the £2 billion Kensington Row development have been acquired to house families hit by the blaze.

Given the area of London, and current house prices, these flats won't be palaces. Surely it's the very least that can be done for these poor souls. It seems like heartlessness is a growing trend.
