BREAKING: In a not stunning moment, Donald Trump, who is 78 years old, is clearly failing to pronounce words and repeatedly is stuttering. This is becoming embarrassing for Trump. Retweet so everyone sees Donald Trump is becoming senile.

BREAKING: In a horrifying moment, Donald Trump congratulates Vladimir Putin. Trump has long sided with Russia and Putin, but congratulating him at a campaign rally is as anti-American and repulsive as it gets. Retweet so all Americans see this.

Fascinating to listen to Caitlin Moran discuss “What about men?” at Fringe by the Sea today. Fringe by the Sea is such a brilliant initiative not only because it brings writers & performers to East Lothian during Festival time but because it also strengthens our local economy.

BREAKING: Republican Mayor of Mesa, John Giles, just announced his support for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. This is catastrophic for Trump as Mesa is the 3rd largest city in Arizona. Retweet so all Americans hear Giles’ critical message.

BREAKING: The media is finally acknowledging Donald Trump’s cognitive capabilities are severely diminished in his old age. Last night, Donald Trump spent hours rambling and slurring his words in his interview. Retweet so all Americans know Trump is senile.

I can promise you that you won't be able to count how many promises of new investment in Scottish culture have been made, or how many strategies or reviews have been announced, over the last year. But, as of today, there is no money committed for anything beyond March. Nothing.

Funny how the Scottish Government can commit the country to hosting the Commonwealth Games in 2026 but can't commit any funding for folk trying to put on home-grown cultural festivals, shows & events after April 2025. If only they'd spent as much time on the latter as they have the former.
