From Snouts in the Trough, should Prime Minister Keir Starmer be disbarred by the U.K.'s Solicitors Regulation Authority and/or by its Bar Standards Board?  (Since the U.K. has two types of lawyers, as in barristers and solicitors, it seems appropriate that it also has two authorities that can disbar someone.)

From The American Conservative, Trump has a realist strategy for dealing with China.

From The Western Journal, the man known as "Polling Nostradamus", who predicted that Vice President Harris would be elected president, gets to enjoy his serving of crow.  (I wonder if this guy is tired of the saying "eat crow" and its variants.)
