giving the nobel to the venezuelan opposition leader may have been the one worse thing than giving it to trump himself since there’s a nonzero chance they’ll cite it in favor of regime change

It’s funny how you can be a far right loony who caused riots that burned down community health clinics and other institutions of the people, ask for the US to invade your country and despite the false rhetoric oppose the democratic will of your people and win a Nobel peace prize.
Nobel Peace Prize goes to: Venezuela’s opposition leader Maria Corina Machado — for her defense of democracy in the face of a repressive, authoritarian regime. Amongst those who nominated her: Marco Rubio, the current US Secretary of State (letter sent in Aug 2024).

As social protection minister Humphreys spoke in the Dáil about the “importance of applicants notifying (her department) of any change in circumstances” so that “no overpayments occur”. One set of rules for the Party of Law and Order, another for everyone else.
Fine Gael’s Heather Humphreys has avoided a property tax on her old constituency office after failing to declare she’s no longer entitled to an exemption. For failing to make this declaration Humphreys could face criminal prosecution. https://t.co/A7IfL9Qe9b

@EXECUTIVESTEVE If Catherine Connolly kicked a dog on video, it would end up in the back of the net

If Catherine Connolly kicked a dog on video she'd probably secure Heather Humphreys' vote.
If Catherine Connolly kicked a dog on video today all her supporters on the left would be out to tell you that the dog was asking for it, dogs don't have feelings, it was the dog owners fault and also what about the Jews? #Aras25

It's incredible that professional bodies for lawyers now have to repeatedly issue reminders to politicians about basic rule of law principles, last week it was the importance of judicial review, this week a basic principle of the role of lawyers

Micheál Martin ran a celebrity candidate because he didn't think anyone actually standing on their record in his party could win. If his leadership isn't challenged after showing such contempt for his own people, there isn't a spine left in Fianna Fáil.

If you went to a funeral every day, for each child Israel has killed in Gaza over the last two years, it would take you over 50 years. That doesn’t include the 1000s of men and women killed. But Palestinians are so dehumanized that Western leaders won’t even memorialize them.

If only he'd paid back the money sixteen years ago there'd have been no story at all.
@EXECUTIVESTEVE @MichealLehane A small bit but i woudn't be given them a full 100% sympathy. It was clearly a hatchet job. They could have came out with the story months ago

It will be interesting to see whether a similar condemnation is missed on behalf of Connolly as was issued on O'Callaghan's behalf. It's dangerous rhetoric though, beneath what you'd expect from the party of law and order.
Humphreys campaign now in freefall with resort to purity tests Fine Gael surely claim to abhor. The Bar Council were compelled to issue public clarification when FG tried to pull similar against Jim O'Callaghan's work as a barrister in 2020. So much for the party of law & order

Fair play to @fallon_donal I've been to a lot of book launches over the years but never one with cans of its own special beer.
