Senate Republicans just blocked a bill that would bar ICE from making arrests at school bus stops.

🤣 FFS Article 29 of Vienna Convention - diplomats can’t even be arrested and charged. Took me 2 mins to search that info. She’s a failed journo and an even worse dog whistler.

This is where supporting the fascist reform party gets the UK , a lad sitting down being bullied by self appointed vigilantes. These two are disgusting, but this is where Farage has dragged the UK.
Imagine sitting on a bench in a park in Blackpool, England, just minding your own business. Two men walk up to you and demand you move along. They claim 'women & kids are scared of immigrants'. The young man who at first doesn't understand what they're saying, is shocked to think they mean him.

"The Bank of England was set up by Tony Blair"
It's easy to forget that Tony Blair had been in power since 1694 when the Bank of England was founded. Good job Brain of Britain Liz Truss is here to remind us.

I don't think it's a coincidence that Trump is banning news outlets the week before a court's deadline for Todd Blanche to release interview notes with underage girls Trump is alleged to have raped and threatened.
He'd rather we talk about his censorship than his pedophilia.
