The problem is that the joke would seem to be repeating a largely English trope, of the "thick Paddies". It's not wildly popular among Irish people in general, for some reason we find it unfunny, to say nothing of inaccurate. It's different if it's someone Irish, like with Father Ted...

Thank you. Every day is a school day. Though, in the case of the US Supreme Court today it feels as if someone is roaming the halls of the Constitution and legal tradition with a bump stock equipped assault rifle...

Would using the CIA in the US not make it unofficial, for it to be an official act would he not have to get the FBI, or other Federal agency involved? Not that I know, because I'm Irish.

I really don't think that the word "mitigating" in the report is accurate, because I'm not convinced that the barrister's statement mitigates the crime.

This is brilliant, and I wouldn't have the intelligence to put something like this together. But, for "E", I'd replace the first "you" with "if". Though that might be a bit too bleak.

Shocked by the language, yet strangely peckish... As an aside, I'm convinced there were Greeks on the Portuguese voyages to the East Indies, how else could we come up with the Straits of Malacca? I'll get my coat.

To say nothing of also having a potential plausible deniability argument should anyone suggest that there was some form of plot to do away with companions on the trek. It would clearly just have been a terrible, unforeseeable, accident...

Sunak may be losing control, but you can at least make a case that he has a clue. Johnson has that Liz Truss "deer caught in the headlights" look about him, & like the late, unlamented Prime Minister you get the feeling that if you looked deeply into his eyes all you would see would be tumbleweed.

I have more of a "Kimberly was regretting sharing that bowl of nuts as, while watching her mentally impaired companion lift the microphone to his mouth, she saw the evidence that he hadn't washed his hands on visiting his private washroom" kind of vibe from that picture....

Is it worth mentioning that his post-War magnanimity didn't do him any favours either?

Can I be bewildered at how they manage to think quote tweeting that tweet by A Tate is a good thing, considering the charges he's facing in Romania??? But, I suppose when engaging in casual racism, critical thinking isn't likely to come to the fore...

I'm sort of doubting the likelihood of his five sons being able to stay friends... Because of the use of the word "stay".

But at least it's an image of a Tucker Carlson demonstrating certain "attributes" that are as fake as his attempts to represent himself as an ordinary everyday decent American everyman, or even as a journr.

I'm just going to mention that it's barely 21:05 now, so forty minutes of political '"consciousness" sounds about right.
