NEW NEWS!!!! RT to win a @newheightshow hat signed by @tkelce and to help him win the #WPMOYChallenge

Petition: Apply for the UK to join the European Union as a full member as soon as possible petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7000…

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians. I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor. My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California. That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people. Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime. It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand. I want to tune out. But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious. And I will always be an American before I am a Republican. That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious. For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing. The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better. It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed! But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems. It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful. We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger. That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz. Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us. And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. vote.org

The hearing into Man City's 115 charges will begin next month. The verdict is expected in early 2025, with Everton to be docked 10 points.

Gotta love New York. Here, after the guilty verdict, a NY deli is offering this new sandwich

It is a problem for the Premier League that there is apathy towards their repeat champions independent.co.uk/sport/football…

During an era of shockingly predictable title wins, Klopp has done more than anyone to make leagues exciting. Without him: City would have won 5 on the bounce 18-22 with no-one within a dozen points & Bayern’s run of 11 would stretch back even further. ⬇️ theathletic.com/5237702/2024/0…

Fans at a hockey game cheered every time this 4 year old kid came on the screen and booed when it went onto someone else

Brexiters promised ... Cheaper food❌ Cheaper energy❌ Less red tape❌ Controll of our borders❌ Better for farmers❌ Better for fishermen❌ A free trade deal with the USA❌ A better deal with the EU❌ No border in the Irish Sea❌ £350 million a week to the NHS❌ #BrexitHasFailed

Chelsea under Todd Boehly have more signings (24) than Premier League wins (11) 👀

"It's not that I don't want the Bibby Stockholm in my back yard, I don't want it in ANYBODY'S back yard." "To behave so cruelly, I have no words." Mayor of Portland Carralyn Parkes on why she's taking legal action against Suella Braverman over the Bibby Stockholm asylum barge.

"How would you feel if something suddenly happened here and we had to flee somewhere?" "We should be embarrassed. It's an atrocity." This woman takes less than a minute to completely destroy the Tory government's archaic anti-refugee policies.

Imagine the shock for GB News & the Daily Mail when they find out we had a returns agreement with the EU before Brexit & the huge rise in dangerous small boat crossings is in large part a direct consequence of the Brexit deal championed by the Prime Minister himself!

Oh.

MPs vote by 354 to 7 that Boris Johnson is an intentional and serial liar. No former prime minister has ever suffered quite such an indignity

A six-minute report on BBC news about Man City's charges the day they win their fifth Premier League title in six years. The notion that journalists are actively ignoring the charges when reporting on City is completely wrong.

THREAD: EXAMPLES OF VOTER SUPPRESSION Here are just a handful of examples of people being denied their vote today because of Tory voter suppression. There are already more examples within this short thread than the total number of cases of voter fraud over the last few years.

@BrexitBuster @BurgessMiller8 The second is from a pub in Kidderminster (since closed) called the Grand Turk… some locals with a good sense of humour intervened 😃

@BurgessMiller8 Not mine, but they are delicious. 😝

Well dear Twitter folk, it looks like collectively we have scored a direct hit on the White Hart Inn, Grays, Essex… the racist ‘gollies’ pub (although that is only the tip of an iceberg of hate). People power matters and can bring positive change. Well done everyone who helped!

'I'm so sorry to everybody, I bitterly, bitterly regret it.' A distraught Brexit voter, Tony, is comforted by @mrjamesob, who tells him not to blame himself because of the 'sheer weight of influence and bogus information' inflicted on him that contributed to his decision.
