RFK Jr. hits back after Trump’s ‘barely coherent’ rant

Published by skeptic

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hit back at former President Trump following his “barely coherent” rant on TruthSocial Friday night targeting the Independent presidential candidate. “When frightened men take to social media they risk descending into vitriol, which makes them sound unhinged,” Kennedy said Saturday in a social media post on X. “President Trump’s rant against me is a barely coherent barrage of wild and inaccurate claims that should best be resolved in the American tradition of presidential debate.”  Kennedy’s rebuttal comes as Trump went after the independent White House candidate in a series of TruthSocial posts published on Friday. The former president argued the independent candidate has been inserted in the field to help President Biden and that his running mate, Nichole Shanahan, is not a serious vice presidential pick.  Kennedy praised Trump as a debater, but said he does not have to be “panicked” to exchange ideas on the podium.   “President Trump, who has proven himself the most adept debater in modern American political history, should not be panicked to meet me on that …

Blinken’s Dire Warning To Bibi: “You Need A Coherent Plan” Or Face Disaster In Gaza

Published by skeptic

Did Secretary Blinken just deliver Biden’s promised ‘come to Jesus’ message to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu? Blinken on Friday warned the Israeli leader and his war cabinet in a meeting that “Israel’s security and its place in the world are in peril” — according to a description of the remarks in Axios. Blinken emphasized to Israel’s leadership that “you might not realize it until it’s too late.” Blinken warned further that on Israel’s current trajectory and with plans for the ‘day after Hamas’ still up in the air, the Gaza crisis is headed toward an indefinite troop occupation scenario with an insurgency Israel can’t handled. He ultimately conveyed that Israel faces further isolation on the world stage. AFP/Getty Images “You need a coherent plan, or either you’re going to be stuck in Gaza,” the US top diplomat said per a source that spoke to Axios. According to more from the closed door remarks, “The Secretary of State said that on the current path, Hamas will stay in control in Gaza or there will be anarchy, which will just create …

UK has lacked coherent economic strategy for years, thinktank finds | Economic policy

Published by Sam

For years the British government from the prime minister down has lacked a coherent economic strategy, according to a thinktank’s health check of UK prospects. “We are not on course towards setting any such strategy – indeed, we are not serious about the task,” says the report, titled “Ending Stagnation – a new economic strategy for Britain”. Funded by the independent Nuffield Foundation and pieced together from original research by the Resolution Foundation thinktank and the Centre for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics, the report is forgiving of politicians who have faced a succession of global shocks, from Covid to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. However, the authors document a series of failures that have left the UK as a laggard among G7 economies and ill-prepared for the task of providing a decent standard of living for most people in the years ahead. The economy Rather than creating an economy where the number of high-skilled jobs is on the rise, the report says workers will be £470 worse off by the end …

Starmer brushes off the glitter to make coherent case for a Labour government | Labour conference 2023

Published by Sam

Keir Starmer would not have wanted a rogue protester to cover him in glitter as he stood up to give his crucial conference speech. But the overall image of a Labour leader sparkling from the stage for an hour ended up doing him no harm. Jacket off and sleeves rolled up, Starmer recovered immediately and made the incident into a virtue, with huge applause from the hall. “This is why we changed our party. Power, not protests,” he quipped. It was not a showy, glittering speech in tone, but over the course of the hour Starmer built up a coherent, overarching case for why Labour should be in government. Although there were no major new announcements, he set out core policies where there is clear difference with the Conservatives. Labour would build 1.5m new houses and overhaul the planning system, “speed ahead” with green projects, and bring in a package of improvements to workers’ rights. It was the strongest statement from Starmer so far on scrapping zero-hours contracts and banning fire and rehire – after …
