Frank McCormick, a former teacher and constitutional conservative, posted on X early Thursday asking if people enjoy Christmas aesthetics like lights, music, and decorations. Over 50 Jewish respondents largely expressed delight in the holiday's vibe and mood-boosting elements amid winter, noting cultural participation such as eating Chinese food on Christmas or decorating neighbors' trees. Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks. While a minority opts out, the thread with over 4,000 views reflects American pluralism and shared seasonal goodwill transcending faith.

IRS data through February 13 shows average refunds at $2,476, up 14.2% from $2,169 last year, with total payouts topping $32 billion—an 8.3% increase. These gains stem from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, signed July 4, 2025, which exempts tips and overtime pay up to $12,500 from federal taxes, boosts child credits, and enhances deductions for seniors on Social Security. House Speaker Mike Johnson highlighted about $10,000 more in annual take-home pay for average households, while nonpartisan estimates peg 2026 cuts at $3,752 per taxpayer; Democrats counter that tariffs add $700 to $1,300 in household costs.

On the New Statesman podcast, Dominic Sandbrook argued that 1950s and 1960s politicians like Harold Macmillan gained empathy from evening reads of 19th-century fiction, such as Trollope, unlike today's screen-filled nights. He suggested this 'hinterland' produced better leaders amid a shrill political landscape, a view echoed by Aaron Bastani and Michael Gove. Critics pointed to era flaws like the Suez Crisis and Soviet spies, questioning if reading alone ensured strong governance. The clip revives calls for leaders with depth beyond briefs.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Imagine prime ministers unwinding with Anthony Trollope novels instead of policy briefs or social media. Historian Dominic Sandbrook misses that era's reflective leaders.

Robinson endorsed Lowe, the independent MP for Great Yarmouth who launched Restore Britain around February 13, 2026, after leaving Reform UK last year. The new party, now with over 90,000 members, pushes mass deportations and remigration, drawing support from figures like Elon Musk and far-right activists. Reform fired back with Zia Yusuf's hardline speech on February 23, pledging a UK Deportation Command for illegal migrants amid ongoing small boat arrivals, though polls show Reform leading at 25% to Restore's 7%. The rift highlights tensions over immigration strategy and risks splitting the right-wing vote.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

Tommy Robinson didn't hold back on a US podcast, calling Rupert Lowe the only leader who can save Britain while slamming Nigel Farage for selling out on immigration.
