It all starts with #misogyny ('Women's brains are too small to do maths'). From there, 'my pal #JeffreyEpstein' and his horror island of trafficked minors, forced into sex with old farts. Finally, someone goes to jail. Always spot the #misogyny. #larrysummers

Anyone who thought #MGB had a rat's ass chance in #BiharElection2025 is clueless at how angry Biharis remain at #JungleRaj. They saw a poor but able #Bihar turn endemically criminal, economically catastrophic, nationally mocked. The #NDA win was inevitable.

Impressed by @ICICIBank. My debit card was recently stolen in @kriticreations, #KhanMarket. I rang ICICI & Santosh was so efficient, blocking it & ordering a new card which has reached bang on time. (Btw, the store CCTV wasn't on, as per @DelhiPolice FIR).
