Candace Owens’ tearful reveal that she spent the past year writing to Charlie Kirk in a journal reads like acting to me. The entries are about dreams and betrayal, with digs at Ben Shapiro. It looks assembled to pull on her audience’s heartstrings, one more attempt to make everything about her. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.

Trump took 9/11 reimbursement money for 40 Wall Street after telling a reporter the building wasn’t hit. He then publicly pledged $10,000 to the Twin Towers Fund, and the city comptroller found no record of that donation in the year after the attacks. First in line when the government was writing checks. Nowhere to be found when it was his turn. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author’s and are not independently verified.

It must be the Albo-rhythms! Our weak PM keeps misleading us. It’s the hard right. It’s the algorithms. It’s the last government. Anyone but himself and his failing government. Tick tock, Albo. ⏰

Harry and Meghan are upset at not being publicly acknowledged as members of the Royal family. But our late Queen did acknowledge them, in writing, as much loved members of her family, and it changed nothing: they still accused her family of racism, of ignoring Meghan's pleas for help and of denying Archie a title, and sold those claims to Oprah and Netflix. Demanding respect for a Royal title while showing none to the Queen who gave it is the whole problem. Actions have consequences. Sometimes they take six years. Tone rewrite only.

Susan Rice said the quiet part out loud: she is warning big business and big tech that Democrats will not forget who sided with Trump and walked away from DEI. That is a threat, and it should be taken seriously. If Democrats win the midterms, they will use that power. We have until November to keep them out, pass the SAVE Act and make the elections too big to rig. And the evidence we already hold against very guilty people should finally go to a grand jury. They put innocent people away; we have not arrested one of them. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

This woman cannot stand being fact-checked and corrected by an actual Palestinian. She's a grifter. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

France is on the verge of tearing up the one in one out migrant deal, and Andy Burnham is left pleading with Macron to save it. The scheme returned four percent of small boat arrivals while Britain took the same number of asylum seekers in exchange. Over 32,000 migrants crossed the Channel under it, and we paid France hundreds of millions to police its own beaches. Now Paris says the policy does not work, and our Prime Minister is begging for a failed deal. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

This is the end of the PlayStation era. The PlayStation post announcing the end of physical discs passed 185 million views, and every video or post on the subject blows up. Nobody can call that a small minority. The GTA VI trailer's 200 million views were not "a few people who care" either. Some will buy a PlayStation no matter what, but they will be the minority. A company is setting itself on fire in front of us. #NoDiscNoBuy Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

I'm watching Trump's convention speech and it is going badly. He looks tired, he is off script, and he is rambling. This is going to backfire on MAGA.

John Fetterman has moved to a position identical to many centrist Democrats on here, but he is an awkward messenger, so they all have to act like he is still a Bernie-style left populist.

You have this wrong. That was me responding to a pro-Israel hardliner on your side who had also told me to leave the US, so I replied in kind. So this one does not hold up. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Sony rugpulling Kojima is nefarious. What reason could you possibly have for this besides arrogance?

After all the price increases, the end of physical media, and not a single game to look forward to, you still broke a Kojima partnership? What do you have, PlayStation? What do you do? Are you going to greenlight another seven Marvel and God of War games? Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Zelensky said his plane was "almost hit" by a drone. And now all the European news is flooded with this story. You can't possibly be this credulous. What is wrong with you? Read the comments from Ukrainians under these news stories. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Televising the "black national anthem" before the national anthem, and only that, is a disgrace, and the NFL should be ashamed of itself. Especially in our 250th anniversary year. Shame on the NFL and the Seahawks. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Every Premier League team has won their game. Trust Man United to let us down again tomorrow.

"RIGHT AFTER THE ELECTION oil prices are going to be tumbling downward" This is nonsense. It's not even clever nonsense. It lacks any effort. It signals: my voters are so gullible I can tell them it will happen AFTER they vote and they will accept it.

Actors Brad Garrett and Noah Wyle donated to James Talarico, a socialist who believes there are six genders. Shame on you, Brad and Noah. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

The problem with society is ignorance. That's literally it. Without wilful ignorance we'd be fine.

I used to call for Trump to resign because I thought he was incompetent and dishonest. Now he is just embarrassing. The longer he stays president, the worse our whole country looks to the rest of the world. Trump promising to hand out $5,000 to every American if the GOP wins the midterms is the most desperate ploy I have seen in American politics. (It is also a solid reason to buy gold and silver, since it suggests he intends to debase the currency further.) If the GOP really wanted to win the midterms, they would impeach Trump and earn some vindication for it. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Victoria, a state in disgrace: moral bankruptcy, corruption and indecency. This government must be swept out completely at the next election. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

I don't buy Talarico's shift. You don't go from the far left of LGBTQ politics to "moderate" in three months. Fool me once…

How could the villain of the week be anyone other than Ed Miliband? The shameless politician who thinks he can save his own skin by pandering to Islamists. This week on #TheQuad on @JNS_org Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

Two weeks ago DHH called Nix people clowns, goblins and a cancer, and in the same breath called Nix amazing technology. Now he is building his distribution on NixOS. Criticize NixOS all you like. But packaging, security, infrastructure and review are the work, and his project is a configuration layer on top of it. He depends on the people he mocked. Welcome to NixOS, David. Understand what you are standing on.

I stand with Israel, loudly and unapologetically. Jews have a continuous presence there going back thousands of years, and the state was established by the UN in 1947; the Arab side refused partition and lost the war it started. It is the only democracy in the region, with Arab citizens in parliament and on the Supreme Court. It left Gaza in 2005 and got October 7 in return. Critics demand nothing of Hamas or Iran and obsess over the one Jewish state. Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.

You only need the first paragraph to see how full of himself Harry is. Does he ever not complain? Does he ever not leak? Does he ever not clap back? Is he ever not insufferable? Tone rewrite only. Claims remain the author's and are not independently verified.
