It's one thing that our Main Media is attacking #fuelprotest protesters when opinion polling says the protests were supported 60-40, but it just adds insult to injury when you see the emasculation and purchase of Main Media by politicians. It's crept up on us in the past six years - the record and blatant engagement of journalists as special advisers (which makes many journalists think about their futures), the €40m/year VAT cut on (profitable) newspapers, the €725m RTE bailout and Coimisiun na Mean handing out €10m's.

I’ve read four opinion pieces from Irish newspapers this morning - scathing, mocking, or ‘furious’ about the fuel protests. The recurring theme is that the protestors were men… how dare the men… and Irish, therefore ‘far-right’ or ‘Paddy-MAGA lads’ as one fella called them. 🤔

"I wrote this letter a year ago, last April [2025]. I didn’t know the extent of the crime." Senator Eileen Flynn now claims that when she wrote a character reference for her cousin who was arrested in USA in March 2025, she didn't know the extent of the crime. But this is what was published by US authorities on 4 April 2025 (referencing a court filing on 2 April 2025). ice.gov/news/releases/… It's clear that it's an alleged fraud of "more than $1,000,000" and there's detail on nearly 10 victims including householders in their 80's and 90's, scammed or forced into unnecessary "repairs" The cousin has now been jailed for five years in USA, and will be deported back to Ireland when he's released.

CSO stamp duty data released today shows it plain. For six straight years funds and institutions bought more of Ireland’s new homes than first time buyers. That is the housing policy. Not words. Not spin. That is the reality. People have every right to be furious. It is obscene.

I'll make a longform YouTube video on this. It will be a good opportunity to go through everything and show people how state-funded media frames a story. Luckily this is about me, I have everything recorded and I have the platform to show people exactly how this works.

At the height of last week's fuel price protests, a GoFundMe page was set up to by food and hot drinks for those who had brought parts of the country to a standstill. A week later the page has raised €150,000 - but what's going to happen to the money? jrnl.ie/7013354t

Our government is being very coy over how much Neale Richmond handed over or pledged to Sudan yesterday, but 3% of the EU pledge of nearly €850m would make our share around €25m. Strange though that Government doesn't want to disclose the specifics. Still smarting from the blowback to the €40m given to Ukraine a fortnight ago?
Neale Richmond@nealerichmond

Tough week in politics, but that is nothing compared to the pressure on workers, families & businesses. But government must continue our work. I am in Berlin today addressing Sudan’s shocking humanitarian crisis. Global events have big impacts on us at home.

Remember that time certain politicians were outraged at the suggestion that those entering emergency accommodation didn't have a legal right to social housing?

BUCHANAN: Dublin Time Machine
Think Michael Healy-Rae the wealthiest TD in the Dáil, is a man of the people? Lets have a gander at this cutest-of-hoors staggering finances and property portfolio.... He declared 14 houses for letting in Kerry, three guest houses, one rented commercial unit, a vacant premises, an apartment for letting, an unspecified number of apartments in a separate development, an unspecified number of rooms for letting, and student accommodation in Limerick. That's before you get to the rest. Based on CSO median property price data for December 2025, his residential and guest house portfolio is estimated to be worth around €5.6 million. Twelve properties in the Killarney, Kilgarvan, Kenmare and Barraduff area, where the median house price sits at €332,500, give a rough valuation of €3.99 million. Then his six properties in the Tralee and Castleisland area, with a median of €270,000, add another €1.62 million on top. The actual figure could be higher or lower. The register isn't that specific. On the rental income side, 14 Kerry two-bedroom houses at current market rents would generate €18,340 per month, or €220,080 per year. Daft.ie figures show listed monthly rents on two-bedroom houses in Kerry rose 7.3 per cent last year to €1,310, with four-bedroom houses up 8.8 per cent to €1,879. Then there's the land. He owns 100 acres of farmland and forestry in Kilgarvan, another 42 acres of forestry, and a further 4 acres of farmland elsewhere in the area. Based on the most recent Sherry FitzGerald assessment of €14,125 per acre for southwest farmland, the 100-acre holding alone could be worth around €1.46 million. The Institute of Professional Auctioneers and Valuers values Munster forestry at €6,960 per acre, putting the 40-acre forestry plot at approximately €278,000. His company Roughty Properties received €470,000 from the Department of Children in 2024 for Ukrainian accommodation, paid out month by month, €49,640 in March, €52,080 in April, and so on. He also draws income from Kerry County Council's rental accommodation and housing assistance payment schemes. He has been a landlord since he was 18. When he first entered the Dáil in 2011 he already owned 14 properties! The register shows 16 properties in 2016, 19 in 2018, 21 in 2020, 24 in 2022, and 28 for 2025, including his family home. Public records show none of the four companies he directs, Roughty Properties, Black Cap & Co, ML Healy-Rae Properties and Roughty Plant Hire, ever drew down a mortgage. The family plant hire business, now primarily run by his nephew Johnny Healy-Rae, recorded net assets of €4.6 million at the end of 2024. It received €501,000 for Kerry County Council work in 2025 and €384,000 in 2024. Cork County Council paid a further €334,135 across the same two years. Ah but sure begorrah, he doesn't care about money. He's a lovely wee hat and sure he only cares about de poor folk like you and me...

Ireland should buy their oil from the USA and join all the tankers heading here, I’ll bet they can even get a big discount because the Irish are great people , but ONLY if their government cuts the fuel tax by 50%

@exileddata @JackPosobiec They used to be key exporters of oil,but sanctions and aging infrastructure made them basically redundant for oil exports,then Trump decided that he needs the oil and under the guise of small boats with drugs, he stole the oil,Trump won't stop unless he has Iran's oil as well
