Again I agree #DoAGoughAlbo!

People are talking about his Pope trolling and Alcatraz, rather than the billion dollar corruption scheme.

The BBC has “repeatedly held back” a documentary about the horrors faced by Gaza’s doctors, even though the documentary has been carefully vetted by the BBC and given the green light. thetimes.com/uk/media/artic…

Trump’s tariffs are about to kill thousands of small businesses like the one owned by this 10-year US Army veteran. "Because this was a product that never existed before, no U.S. manufacturer was willing to take the risk on making it. They need to make hundreds of thousands of
