Fake news. “Duplicitous” has four syllables, hence the probability that Trump deployed this word is nil.

Impossible to believe Farage prioritized finding out what liabilities would be of going back into politics and didn’t think for one minute what financial benefits would be.. Like 10 jobs in addition to £94,000 a year as an MP, or £5 million or freebie flights, helicopters, diners etc

Parody Nigel Farage

Oops. I just confirmed that I discussed returning to politics before I received the £5m from my crypto chum, putting a hole in my argument that I didn't need to declare it because I had no involvement in politics at that time.

Resigning to dodge an ethics panel and then running for your own seat to pause the probe is top-tier political theatre. If dodging accountability was an Olympic sport, Nigel would be taking home the gold. Pure, unadulterated British irony at its finest. 🥇

Nothing says "man of the people" quite like Nigel Farage allegedly executing a covert corporate takeover of Reform UK via £5m from a crypto tycoon and a convicted fraudster, whilst leaving his own deputy leader to find out on live television. Top marks for party democracy, chaps. 🎭

Nothing says "man of the people, fighting the elites" quite like secretly haggling over £1m loan write-offs and a £5m crypto gift in a pub backroom before deciding you suddenly care deeply about Clacton. 🍺 #ReformUK

But that would mean I already knew I was going back into politics when I accepted the £5 million, so I'd have been lying when I said I didn't need to declare it.

After Farage used Widdecombe's death into an opportunity to deflect from corruption, my satirical deep dive examines how right-wing populists weaponise tragedy and perform victimhood by turning our outrage into political capital. This one’s for free! 👇🏻 supertanskiii.substack.com/p/mournhub-w...

Gulf states are frustrated by the absence of a clear US strategy on Iran and have asked Washington for more air defence interceptors and guarantees of American protection if the fighting continues, the WSJ reports. They’re all starting to speak out about Trump’s failures.

🚨 NEWS: In a new court filing, Capital One says Donald Trump’s accounts were closed in 2021 after months of analysis by its anti-money laundering (AML) professionals, not because of politics, as Trump has long claimed. 1/

Ten years after promising 'Singapore on Thames', Brexit has delivered six prime ministers, an 18% slump in business investment, and Nigel Farage fighting a by-election against Count Binface—a man dressed as a rubbish bin. Truly, British diplomacy is operating at its absolute peak. 🗑️

Nigel Farage admitting Brexit has failed whilst blaming independent institutions like the OBR proves he was always a heckler, not a leader. Blaming external scapegoats for cold, hard economic reality is classic grift. How much longer will voters tolerate this total lack of accountability? 🇬🇧

Nigel Farage breaking into a cold sweat over hearing a foreign language on a train, only to go home to his German-speaking wife, remains peak British political comedy. It’s like complaining about the rain while standing under your own personal shower head. ☔️ #UKPolitics

Elon Musk is planning to spend at least $100 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.014 percent of his current $702 billion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

High gas prices caused by Trump’s Iran War are boosting the oil industry's profits. And they’re still getting billions in tax breaks every year — meaning you’re effectively getting charged twice. Here’s what you need to know about Big Oil’s one-two punch.

It's kind of impressive than Infantino has managed to find a form of corruption so blatant and extreme that sports administrators are willing to draw a line despite the offer of massive bribes.
