Erol Bulut is staying at Cardiff City. Indeed it was lurking in the wings even before the final ball was kicked nearly a month ago. Now, we finally have a resolution, with the Turkish coach now putting pen to paper on a new two-year contract in the captiall. Sign up to our Cardiff City newsletter here. Bulut had guided City 12th last term, a marked improvement on previous campaigns, and he has now been afforded the opportunity to build on the foundations laid last term.

Perhaps some do, but that can’t be said of Services Australia executives giving evidence to the Community Affairs Legislation Committee on Monday (3 June). Liberal senators Linda Reynolds and Maria Kovacic were unforgiving as they fired question after question at Ms Smith over the appointment of a speechwriter. And here’s the rub: the speechwriter was contracted to Government Services Minister Bill Shorten and works primarily from his office. Before the lunch break, Ms Smith admitted under scrutiny that the agency had sufficient capacity to fill the role internally. She writes for Services Australia as well, and she is mentoring and training internal communications officers.

By BlackMansStreet.Today | Trice Edney Wire(TriceEdneyWire.com/BlackMansStreet.Today) – In the four years since George Floyd’s killing sparked mass protests, U.S. cities have settled over 130 lawsuits related to police misconduct, paying out nearly $150 million to protesters, journalists, families, legal observers, and bystanders, according to a report published earlier this week. The settlements, some of the largest ever for protest-related police actions, have forced numerous reforms on departments, including restrictions on using “less lethal” weapons, reported the Guardian. “Change is needed,” Philonise Floyd, George Floyd’s brother, said at a news conference Thursday where Democratic lawmakers announced their latest effort to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act. The legislation passed in the then-Democratically controlled House in June 2020. But it stalled in the Senate.

Fast forward to Friday night, though, and Greenwood was watching from the bench as England suffered a damaging defeat to France at St James' Park. In the build-up to the 2022 European Championships, Greenwood had been partnering Bright while Williamson played in midfield. I love watching football. I love watching the game back and I enjoy watching the opposition and seeing where their weaknesses are. With England desperately needing a victory to revive their faltering qualifying campaign, leaving the City defender on the bench could prove a very costly error.

What we are witnessing today is the first live-streamed genocide via TikTok, the first AI (artificial intelligence) powered genocide, and the first genocide that lays bare the Democratic Party’s spinelessness. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.” www.thenation.com/article/society/aaron-bushnell-gaza-self-immolation/25-year-old Bushnell was not the first self-immolation protest against the genocide. Google has refused to comment on how this policy applies to the Israeli military. In the 1970s, the American Jewish Committee was the first national organization to endorse the push by Japanese Americans for reparations for their incarceration during World War II. The movement to stop the genocide in Palestine is a movement for saving the American people from the dictates of the 0.1% who have hijacked American democracy.

If he is not a conservative by the time he is 40, he has no brain." Based on the so-called mega-poll published earlier today, it showed the entire island of Great Britain without a single Conservative MP. For one thing, it showed that young people across Britain are perhaps not as different as many Scottish nationalists would have you believe. "If only they had something like a mandatory national service plan to save them....." quipped Wishart, who is certainly no Winston Churchill. He'd better hope the trend is reversed on July 4 or he and many of his SNP colleagues will be out of a job.

Kilauea, one of the most active volcanoes in the world, has begun erupting in a remote area that last saw an eruption half-century ago, the US Geological Survey’s Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said. The eruption is about 1.6 km (1 mile) south of the Kilauea caldera, in an area within Hawaii Volcanoes national park that last erupted in December 1974. The area surrounding the caldera has been closed to the public since 2008 because of other hazards, including ground cracking, instability in the crater wall and rockfalls.

During an interview on “Fox and Friends” on Sunday, 2 June, former president Donald Trump falsely claimed he never said Hillary Clinton should be in jail. “Lock her up” was famously one of Trump’s rallying cries during his presidential campaign against Clinton. Last Thursday, Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of felony business fraud by a jury in Manhattan. Trump has called on the Supreme Court to annul his guilty verdict in the hush money case. He still remains the GOP frontrunner in the 2024 presidential election.

[snip] There have only been two times in Trump’s political career where that dynamic of Republican unanimity has broken, where Trump was near political death. Along the way there’s the lady he assaulted in the Bergdorf Goodman dressing room and the porn star he fucked who, he said, reminded him of his oldest daughter. Trump paid $400,000 to cover up fucking a porn star; he grossed it up to make sure it he’d kill the story in time. It’s not just that Republicans are enforcing totalitarian unanimity in supporting Trump for fucking a porn star and covering it up. Trump paid $400,000 to cover up fucking a porn star.
