Abel Alexander Carvajal, secretary of Miami-Dade county's Republican party and a student at FIU's College of Law, reportedly started the chat after the killing of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, in September 2025. But on Wednesday, the Miami Herald published leaked WhatsApp conversations in which the college Republicans made racist, sexist, antisemitic and homophobic comments, including variations of the N-word used more than 400 times.
I want to apologise for my past association with Sean Morton. His offences were vile and I completely condemn the actions for which he was rightly convicted. My thoughts are with the victims and a
Wes Streeting predicted he would be toast at the next general election, according to private WhatsApp messages with Peter Mandelson published by the health secretary in an effort to draw a line under his relationship with the disgraced peer. The exchanges, in which Streeting said the government had no growth strategy and questioned No 10's communications operation, appeared to be part of a plan to ready himself for a potential leadership contest.
The Epstein files reveal not just a catastrophic breach of trust, but the final act in a long political psychodrama. Donald Macintyre reveals how a man so adept at managing risk came to take one that could destroy a government not to mention his own career and says the answers lie deep in a life shaped by a fatal attraction to wealth and influence
She told Sky News: "I think the Prime Minister has a lot of questions to answer, and not just him, but his chief of staff, and all the people in No 10 who pushed this appointment. "I think it is a national embarrassment. There are many people who should have been given that job, or who should have been interviewed for that job, and they didn't get a chance."
Wegner, from the conservative Christian Democratic Union party of the chancellor, Friedrich Merz, had told reporters on Sunday that he had been working round the clock to mitigate the impact of the blackout and get the power back on. I was neither bored nor putting my feet up, but was on the phone all day trying to coordinate and get as much information as possible, he said,and had literally locked myself in my office at home.
The guest list, as Santos teased online, would be particularly strict, a standard enforced by a bouncer who happened to be a former aide, Vish Burra, known for his own online bravado. Related: Donald Trump commutes fraudster George Santos's prison sentence Santos posted a video on X (formerly Twitter) earlier in the day in which he said, "If I don't see you, that means you didn't work hard enough."
Future chronicles of the utter debasement of American political journalism will have to devote an entire chapter to the blowjob. The oral sex act was central to the 1998 Monica Lewinsky scandal, and figured prominently in President Bill Clinton's deposition advancing the argument that it didn't actually fall under the rubric of active "sexual relations." An avalanche of forensic scrutiny in the press ensued.
On his website, Telos News, Lizza published a piece titled, Part 1: How I Found Out. Surprisingly, the post contains no mention of Kennedy. Instead, Lizza claims he found out that Nuzzi slept with Sanford, now 65, who in 2009 resigned as governor after it was revealed he had cheated on his wife at the time. Sanford later went on to serve in Congress from 2013 to 2019 before launching an ill-fated 2020 presidential run, which Nuzzi covered.
Cheryl Hines' memoir, Unscripted, hasn't raced up any best-seller lists, so it's up to Olivia Nuzzi, her husband Robert F. Kennedy's reported digital lover, to deliver the hit tome that may give Americans insight into the controversial anti-vaccine campaigner who broke with his famous political family to ally himself with President Donald Trump and to put his own stamp on America's health care system.
The single sheet of paper was pushed across the table for me to read as we sat drinking coffee in the lobby of a Dublin hotel. The people on the other side reckoned that it would explain things better than they could. The page contained less than 500 words of a transcript from a taped conversation between two individuals I'd never heard of.
The Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner has absorbed enough oppo research to kill half a dozen healthy candidacies. Among the stream of revelations, Platner has called himself a Communist, hinted at political violence, labeled all cops bastards, broadly described rural white people as racist and stupid, downplayed sexual assault, and mocked gay people. He recently covered and apologized for a skull-and-crossbones tattoo associated with the Nazi SS, claiming he hadn't been aware of its political connotations.
Friday is Presidential Election Day in Ireland. What was a ho-hum electoral season got overheated when the campaign of Jim Gavin, a Gaelic football legend turned political neanderfuck and one of only three candidates on the ballot, imploded at the 11th hour over news that he'd screwed a former tenant out of overpaid rent 16 years ago. Irish campaigns are a whole lot shorter than we're used to stateside: The presidential ballot wasn't finalized until late September.
For years, Republican Rep. Cory Mills of Florida has claimed to defend women from the alleged dangers of "the left's gender agenda." "We must stand to protect women from biological males competing unfairly," Mills wrote on X, then called Twitter, in 2022. "We must stop the left's attack on women." This week, a Florida judge ruled that the real danger was Mills himself.
State Rep. Josh Schriver, R-Oxford, who has called porn a scourge and compared it to heroin, introduced legislation in September to ban online pornography statewide. But data reviewed by Metro Times show that an account linked to his personal AOL email address appeared in a data breach from Fling.com, a pornographic dating site that features live web cams and promised users they could find sex and get laid tonight.
Everything seemed to be in order. Mexico's Attorney General's Office (FGR) had seized a ton of cocaine in the state of Guerrero. As required by law, the drugs were to be incinerated. However, a group of officials sneakily replaced the cocaine with powdered milk and that's what went up in flames. The scheme was uncovered, prompting the dismissal of a dozen officials, including the agency's comptroller, Arturo Serrano Meneses, the one ultimately in charge of giving the go-ahead for this type of operation.
"We have decided to prosecute Oliver Steadman with blackmail and five communications offences in relation to a total of five victims working within politics and Westminster. "This follows an investigation by the Metropolitan Police Service which looked into messages that included alleged unsolicited indecent images sent to a number of people within parliamentary political circles between October 2023 and April 2024 using Whatsapp.
The Conservative Party has written to Sir Keir Starmer demanding answers over the extent of Downing Street's knowledge of Lord Mandelson's links to paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The Tories also called for the prime minister to release documents relating to Mandelson's appointment, including evidence that shows how No 10 reacted when they learned of his ties to Epstein. On Sunday, the BBC reported that Starmer explicitly asked Mandelson about his links to the paedophile before deciding to appoint him as ambassador to the US.
