She is not now, and will never be Irish. She represents nothing about Ireland or Irishness ☘️ 🇮🇪 Her win represents the foreign NGO push to destroy Ireland, its people, culture and traditions. Irish people have been lured by relentless propaganda by RTE, the Irish Times and the Far Left media in general, into self hatred and demonising everything Irish, so much so that some eejits are now cheering for the Rose of Mogadishu.

Isn't it wonderful that the 2026 Rose Tralee festival will represent the progressive diversity and inclusivity in our society? Dublin Rose Suad Mooge, was born a culchie, is now a jackeen, and is probably more representative of pan-Irishism than most, if not all the other Roses

@baum_p The kind of nonsense and lies that you're peddling has been so thoroughly discredited for so long long that it's now just utterly boring

FACTS Just a few of the wanted Nazis given safe haven by Ireland- the only country in the world to send condolences on the death of Hitler Albert Folens Pieter Menton Andrei Artukovic ( The Butcher of the Balkans) Oskar Skorzeny There were numerous others . Unfortunately Ireland did not afford the same hospitality to a few Jewish children when the French Resistance pleaded with the Irish government to take in the children . Ireland told the FR to fuck off and the kids died in the camps. Ireland also told Churchill to fuck off when he asked them for use of their ports in WW2 . Naturally Ireland still publicly display numerous memorials to Nazi collaborators. Don’t mistake Ireland’s current pro Palestinian leadership for being anything other than their historical rabid Jew hatred #BROIGAS Boycott Republic Of Ireland Goods And Services Shabbat Shalom

@MarnellRoi53898 @irishrepublic22 @rbr07 The South of Ireland is Cork and Kerry

@kittywoodoshea @irishrepublic22 @rbr07 I have the BBC I up North the South of Ireland don't.

Is it true that down South Ireland can't get the BBC Iplayer?

@PaulNiland Ii seems that a lot of this started when Irish people's and government opposition to the genocide in Gaza became more vocal, combined with many of our right wing morons linking to their ideological soulmates and grifters in the USA

As an Irish man, I've been wondering the same thing. Why is our country suddenly the focus of this bollox from the US right?

@Rick_G_Warrior @Microinteracti1 Don't be so absurd

@Microinteracti1 Wait, Europeans can't even defend their own women on the streets, being harassed & raped by illegal immigrants. Now, they want to pretend they are strong enough to defend Europe? 😆 You can't make this stuff up...

I am not sure the American military establishment has fully grasped what Trump has actually done here. So let me spell it out in language even a Pentagon procurement officer can understand. Europe has been buying American weapons at a staggering rate. In 2024 alone, US foreign military sales notifications to European countries hit $76 billion. Four times the European average since 2008.  F-35s, missile systems, air defence, ammunition. All of it American. All of it coming with decades of service contracts, maintenance agreements, spare parts, software updates and training programmes worth hundreds of billions more over their operational lifetimes. Between 2020 and 2024, the United States supplied 64 percent of all European weapons imports.  That is now over. Europe has an $860 billion defence plan, and American contractors are being frozen out. The goal is 80 percent of all military purchases from European factories by 2030.  Airbus. Rheinmetall. KNDS. Saab. Leonardo. BAE Systems. They are about to receive the largest order book in the history of European defence industry. Because Trump made it politically impossible for any European government to keep writing cheques to Washington. Some European governments have discussed worries that the Pentagon could remotely disable American F-35 fighters or impose restrictions on how US weapons can be used.  When your supplier is also threatening to annex your allies, that is not paranoia. That is basic procurement logic. Trump set out to make America great again. He has succeeded magnificently. For Rheinmetall. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@ratlpolicy The UN never passed resolutions calling for genocide or ethnic cleansing

Israel is actually enforcing UN resolutions that neither Lebanon or the UN have properly enforced in decades. That's how it should be reported.

@Cathal1798 @RobLooseCannon @jjdeluxe69 You clearly didn't listen to or read the full comment he made about churchill

@RobLooseCannon @jjdeluxe69 Winston Churchill, isn't that the guy our Taoiseach admires.

Today in 1920, the first English recruits to the Royal Irish Constabulary stepped off a boat at North Wall dock in Dublin. Because of a shortage of RIC uniforms, the men wore a mixture of dark green trousers and khaki tunics. The mismatched colours reminded people of the Scarteen Hunt's famous hound pack "The Black and Tans". The infamous name stuck, long after the rabid murderers were issued proper uniforms. The British government had begun advertising for recruits in January 1920, looking for men willing to "face a rough and dangerous task." Most were unemployed veterans of the First World War, men trained in the logic of lethal trenches, not the demands of policing civilian populations. They received just three months of hurried training. Then they were shipped west and paid ten shillings a day. The guerrilla war launched by the IRA in January 1919 was grinding on, and Ireland was becoming ungovernable. Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson wrote in his diary that "The state of Ireland is terrible. No one's life is safe, spies and murderers everywhere, the Cabinet absolutely apathetic." Wilson wanted the police doubled. What London sent instead was these bastards. About 100 men were recruited per month through the first half of 1920. By November 1921, roughly 9,500 had enlisted. They were deployed mostly to the south and west, where the fighting was heaviest. In County Tipperary alone, by 1921, the Black and Tans made up almost half the entire local RIC strength. Historian D.M. Leeson documented that around one fifth of the Black and Tans were Irish-born themselves. What followed were a catalogue of Tan atrocities. The sack of Balbriggan in September 1920. The burning of Cork in December 1920, when K Company set the city centre alight and then shot at the firefighters trying to put it out. The abduction and murder of Father Michael Griffin in Galway. The shooting of pregnant Ellen Quinn, 24 years old, sitting outside her house with a 9-month-old baby, who bled to death the same night. Thomas Hodgett, postmaster of Navan, a Loyalist and a Protestant, dragged from his house before dawn, shot through the chest, and thrown into the Boyne. His body was found five weeks later. And the list goes on and on. These outrageous crimes didn't go unanswered. Between July 1920 and July 1921, 890 policemen were killed or wounded. Of those attacked by the IRA, only a third escaped unharmed. Forty-two per cent were injured. Twenty-four per cent died. Winston Churchill, who as Secretary of State for War was the political architect of the whole enterprise, would later write that it had become customary to lavish abuse on the Black and Tans, and that in fact they had been selected on account of their intelligence, their characters and their records. What he did not dwell on was the 1921 report from the British Labour Commission, which concluded that in forming the Black and Tans, the government had "liberated forces which it is not at present able to dominate." They were disbanded along with the rest of the RIC in 1922. About 3,000 were in need of financial assistance afterward. Some seven hundred went on to serve in the Palestine Police Force. A few hundred joined the new Royal Ulster Constabulary. More than a third had already quit before disbandment. Buy the Dublin Time Machine a pint and support the DTM Book ko-fi.com/buchanandublin…

@Juleswynnes @aoifeh1916 Remind me, where and when did Jesus talk/preach or even mention chocolate eggs for Easter ? I must have missed that bit when I was in a Christian Brothers school

@aoifeh1916 Neither of them say Easter, yet both been sold in a Christian country, trying to capitalise on a religious holiday period. A bit like presents at Christmas, without Christmas???, so fock them both. I'm out thanks.

I picked these up in Dunnes Stores today. The one on the left is a decent sized egg from a chococlatier in County Cavan. Priced at €12. The Butlers bunny was €10.50. I'm trying to support Irish where I can. Both these Easter eggs contain milk. No palm oil. This is not an ad BTW. Buy what you like. #supportirish #notoplamoil

@Microinteracti1 This isn't Roosevelt that USA is dealing with

🇬🇧 Donald Trump said about Britain: “This isn’t Winston Churchill we’re dealing with.” Britain remembers very well what Churchill meant. The country declared war on Nazi Germany in 1939 and stood against Hitler for nearly two years before the United States entered the conflict. The war left Britain devastated and financially exhausted, yet it still repaid the massive loans it took from the U.S. and Canada, with the final payment made as late as 2006. The point being made is simple: Churchill’s legacy is not about following another country into war. It is about understanding the cost of war and the responsibility that comes with it.

@philipnolan1 Give them one of the bungalows in Castlereagh

We should build a prison solely for the Burkes at this stage. 🤣

@williamcrawley No matter what description...just bear in mind that under no circumstances is Ireland a 'British isle'

Someone is criticizing my use of the phrase “these islands” in reference to the UK and Ireland. They think I should say “British Isles”. Others think I should say “Britain and Ireland”. I’m open to “Atlantic Archipelago — poetic, but I doubt it would work on-air. Thoughts?

@OJoelsen A silly question, but even if they did send a hospital ship, and it was allowed to dock in Greenland, would any medics on board be certified/registered to practice medicine in Greenland/Kingdom of Denmark ?

New details shed light on how the U.S. president may have come up with the idea of sending a hospital ship to Greenland. Prior to the announcement, Trump’s special envoy to Greenland, Jeff Landry, had received visits from two Greenlanders. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Landry says it was conversations with them that prompted him to discuss Greenland’s healthcare system with Donald Trump. According to the special envoy, it is “the rule rather than the exception” that the United States’ two hospital ships are deployed on humanitarian missions. “The exception is to say no to assistance from the ships, as Greenland and Denmark have done,” he says. According to Landry, a ship will be dispatched. Whether Denmark and Greenland want it or not. Jeff Landry confirms that he discussed the issue of Greenland with Jørgen Boassen during the Mardi Gras festival, to which his office had invited the two Greenlandic guests. “The thing that stood out was the healthcare system,” Landry tells The Wall Street Journal. Confronted with the fact that the majority of Greenlanders in a recent opinion poll expressed a negative or strongly negative view of the American welfare system, the special envoy responds that he disagrees. “That’s not what I’m hearing from Greenlanders. They think the universal healthcare system over there is terrible,” he says. Landry further explains that he discussed the matter with Donald Trump during a dinner at the White House on Saturday. The president asked him whether Greenlanders really needed a ship, the special envoy says: “I said they absolutely need it. He said, ‘Well then let’s get it.’” Later that same day — early Sunday Danish time — Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social that he, together with “the fantastic governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry,” would send a hospital ship. A hospital ship will be sent and will reach Greenland, even if it takes until summer before one of the vessels completes its maintenance work, Landry tells The Wall Street Journal. He also says that he does not intend to consult Nuuk or Copenhagen. “I will just coordinate with the military,” he says. — Berlingske

@baum_p You talk such complete utter defamatory nonsense

FACTS 57 years of Irish apartheid …. The Irish are very vociferous ( as a result of their nationalist and republican Jew hatred ) about the Palestinian cause ( the founding Palestinian charters command Jew extermination) accusing Jews of apartheid. The Irish themselves still practice apartheid and have for decades been segregated by apartheid walls euphemistically called Peace Walls ….. #BROIGAS Boycott Republic Of Ireland Goods And Services Ireland’s “segregation walls” are most commonly known as Peace Walls (or Peace Lines). They are barriers built to separate predominantly Catholic/nationalist and Protestant/unionist communities, mainly in Belfast. Why were they built? •Constructed starting in 1969, during a period of violent conflict known as The Troubles. •Intended as temporary measures to reduce sectarian violence. •Separate neighborhoods that supported either remaining part of the UK (unionists) or joining the Republic of Ireland (nationalists). Where are they? •Mostly in Belfast, but also in other towns like: •Derry (also called Londonderry) •Portadown •Lurgan There are over 100 barriers, ranging from short fences to walls more than 8 meters (26 ft) high. What do they look like? •Concrete and steel fences •Often covered in political murals and messages of peace •Some have gates that are locked at night Are they still there? Yes. Even after the Good Friday Agreement in 1998 largely ended the violence, many walls remain. Surveys show mixed opinions—some residents feel safer with them in place. The Northern Ireland government once aimed to remove all Peace Walls, but progress has been slow

@MichaelPodwill Absolute nonsense

Also, admitting 100 Jewish children who survived the Holocaust might have clashed with Ireland's infamous, notorious, repulsive mourning for the passing of their hero, Adolf Hitler.

@hmsgough @MrPitbull07 Nonsense ,our culture is going from strength to strength, also, we don't elect paedophile protectors , our children can go to school and not come home in a coffin, and we don't shoot protestors

@MrPitbull07 Cute story… but you aren’t good at preserving culture. Your culture is disappearing…

People called him a fool. A disgrace to his heritage. Even a “waster.” But Randal Plunkett—death metal fan, vegan, and the 21st Baron of Dunsany—didn’t care. Seven years ago, the Irish nobleman made a radical decision: to let 300 hectares of his 650-hectare estate return to nature. No more livestock. No mowing, planting, or weeding. Just wild, unmanaged land. And while critics scoffed, nature roared back to life. Where there were once only three types of grass, there are now 23. Birds carried seeds, trees regenerated on their own—oak, ash, beech, black poplar. Insects swarmed in, followed by barn owls, sparrowhawks, even rare corncrakes. “I didn’t plant them,” says Plunkett. “The birds did.” He’s seen stoats, heard reports of red squirrels, and drawn botanists from Trinity College to study the revival. Dunsany is now Ireland’s first private rewilding site to join the European Rewilding Network. But it hasn’t been easy. Poachers. Hunters. Online threats. People outraged that a castle-owning baron would “let it all go to weeds.” “We’re great at preserving culture in Ireland,” Plunkett says. “But terrible at protecting nature.” Once a bodybuilding, steak-eating aristocrat, he’s now a fierce defender of the wild—running off hunters, braving backlash, and standing firm. And he’s not doing it for money. The estate survives through tillage farming and film production. The wild makes no profit. It simply lives. As the climate crisis accelerates and species vanish, Plunkett’s stand is more than rebellion. It’s a reminder: sometimes the bravest thing you can do is nothing at all. Let the land breathe. Let it remember what it once was. And maybe, let it teach us who we could be again.

@hmsgough @MrPitbull07 'I can hear the call to prayer from here'... absurd comment, you're in the USA, I'm in Ireland..never heard it once

@MrPitbull07 I can hear the call to prayer from here. To be fair though, the Irish seem to be fighting back more than any other European country.

@muffmasterh @Bridanne @Dogbowl31Medb @TigerYardley @Bbmorg Éire used for yrs,still is on occasions,by British establishment including BBC and some newspapers almost in a pejorative manner as to use the word 'Ireland' might be seen as reference to an all-island entity.The Guardian, for some reason still use the term 'the Irish Republic'

@Bridanne @Dogbowl31Medb @TigerYardley @CH_IRL @Bbmorg É tricky but finally got it worked out, so Éire is not a proper name for lreland then ?

My wife’s new passport! It is more useful than mine but ‘we’ fought hard for that!!

@muffmasterh @Bbmorg Ita always been Éire in the Irish language, Ireland in english

@Bbmorg So it is still Eirè then !!!

@xaxiwo6562457 @ChiuauaTeardrop Laughably silly comment, read some history, get educated

I love how the axis powers in World War II, which is the reason anyone at all had to fight, have been reconstituted as a lesser evil than Ireland, a small impoverished brand new country which had just escaped colonialism. Hungary goooood, Ireland baaaad

@BearlyHereAtAll What nonsense, learn some real history

This is why I'm glad I'm Irish: my ancestors aren't even capable of fighting, let alone of being Nazis. (Note: if they'd lived in Ireland during WW2, like many other Irish, they'd have probably supported Hitler - thankfully, they were well established in South Dakota by then.)
