At today's press briefing, Karoline Leavitt said the numbers of tourists visiting America were up, and it was a lovely place to visit

I had a look to see if any news articles agreed with her. I read about 20. None do. This below from NBC News is fairly representational.

Is Karoline deluded or lying?

Quite something when the richest nation on Earth accusses its previous leading medical director, Faucci, of spreading falsehoods about #Covid19 and publishing that BS from their official government website Covid.gov

And now you know why #cardboardboy could never bring himself to be critical of the United States ...

Woot Woot

Va te faire foutre !

#TransDayofVisibility falls on Monday, 31 March, and the #LGBTQ+ community takes this day to celebrate and honour #trans and non-binary communities around the world.

It is a day of joy, and it is a day of celebration. Each one of us knows at least one trans person who has done something remarkable.

I'll start.

Wendy Carlos, a pioneering electronic music composer, was also a transgender woman and a Grammy winner, known for her groundbreaking work with the Moog synthesizer

PASS IT ON xx

It shouldn't be understated, but Steve #Witkoff was a participant in '#SignalGate'

The #Trump administration made a racist change to its rules for businesses that get federal contracts..

“the federal government no longer explicitly prohibits contractors from having segregated restaurants, waiting rooms and drinking fountains"

#Corbyn asks " Can she say with her hand on her heart that no #disabled person will be worse off after this statement, or will that £5bill be taken from those who live the most difficult lives already in our society?"

She replies, " The predecation of the change is to stop people being written off, denied hope, denied a future, & it's about making the social security system sustainable for the future and when we have a 1,000 new people every day claming pip we have to look at this challenge

The politicians in the HofC continuously describe PIP as a benefit to help with unemployment

#Pip is not an in work benefit. Whether you are employed or not is irrelevant

Sian Berry #Green MP asks Liz Kendall, "Why is impoverishing disabled people a higher priority than wealth tax?"

How can the strategy of the #Labour Party, which raised NI for employers and therefore have made it more expensive to employ people, be reconciled with their crusade of "the moral duty of getting people back to work"

We want people to work, but we are going to make it harder for employers to create vacancies

It doesn't make sense
