British PM Theresa May is set to confirm to the Queen that she has struck a deal with Northern Ireland's DUP party, following the sad news Satan pulled his support for the Conservatives after having 'second thoughts', WWN can confirm.

It is believed May, driven by a strong and stable desire to cling to power in an act of naked self-preservation, no matter the consequences for the British public, struck a deal with a party known for its misogynist and bigoted views.

"Don't forget they hate science and seem happy enough not to condemn terror groups like the UDA/UVF," Satan explained to WWN, speaking exclusively from the fiery pits of hell.

"Look, we all have to draw the line somewhere, I was looking forward to helping Theresa carve out the worst possible vision for Britain with policies that would punish the most vulnerable in society, but f*ck me, have you seen the DUP? That was my call to exit stage left," added the fallen angel.

British Coalition of Chaos: Tories leap into the unpopularity abyss

The official Conservative party spokesman, Laura Kuenssberg, has just announced that Theresa May will remain as Prime Minister, supported by the Democratic Unionist Party in Northern Ireland. Now, the DUP are probably the most unpleasant bunch of individuals in organised politics in the UK. The "No Surrender" arch protestant bigot party founded by Ian Paisley.

It is fascinating that, after an election in which the Tories and their mainstream media acolytes attacked Jeremy Corbyn at every opportunity for his alleged sympathies with the IRA, the Tories have come to an arrangement with a party that was from its inception, and still is, the political wing of the loyalist terrorism. The mainstream media never even mentioned the existence of Loyalist terrorism during its sustained attack on Jeremy Corbyn.

The loyalist terrorists murdered 1,016 people in the period 1969-2001. They shot someone dead in a supermarket car park in an internecine dispute actually during the election campaign. In all the media attacks on Corbyn about the IRA, there was no acknowledgement that Loyalist terrorism even existed. I think we can be pretty certain that the media are not going to start digging into the terrorist links of the Tories' allies now. But social media is going to discredit them.

The DUP are corrupt, homophobic, racist and above all religious bigots of the worst kind. The nastiest people in politics. The utterly discredited Theresa May refuses to resign and intends to continue to rule over us with the support of this ugly faction. Popular support for the Tory government is going to plunge to unprecedented levels. This gruesome malformation of a bigots' alliance between Brexiteers is not going to last long as a government, and the popular retribution will be massive.

Best of the Web: Meet the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), Britain's loyal fundamentalists in Ireland

The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) holds the key to Theresa May remaining in Downing Street but what do we know about this Protestant party drawn from the pro-union side of Northern Ireland's deeply sectarian political spectrum?

As Britons scramble to learn about the party that will prop up May's mandate to execute Brexit, a swathe of the online conversation has focused on the party's past comments on homophobia, Islam and creationism.

The DUP was at the center of a bloody sectarian divide during Northern Ireland's Troubles - a conflict involving rival paramilitary groups and the British Army which claimed more than 3,000 lives over 30 years.

Comment: This alliance - and possibly the Union itself with it - has nowhere to go but down.

The media tried to smear Corbyn by calling him an "IRA terrorism supporter". It didn't work, and now the Tories are planning on forming a government with Loyalist terrorism supporters. Here's the former leader of the 'democratic' unionist party:

James Comey and Robert Mueller: Russiagate's mythical heroes

Mainstream commentators display amnesia when they describe former FBI Directors Robert Mueller and James Comey as stellar and credible law enforcement figures. Perhaps if they included J. Edgar Hoover, such fulsome praise could be put into proper perspective.

Although these Hoover successors, now occupying center stage in the investigation of President Trump, have been hailed for their impeccable character by much of Official Washington, the truth is, as top law enforcement officials of the George W. Bush Administration (Mueller as FBI Director and James Comey as Deputy Attorney General), both presided over post-9/11 cover-ups and secret abuses of the Constitution, enabled Bush-Cheney fabrications used to launch wrongful wars, and exhibited plain vanilla incompetence.

Best of the Web: The 'Humanitarian' Destruction of Libya: Gaddafi, NATO, and the War on Africa

Red plane dropping hearts cartoon
This article is part of a three-part series called "The 'humanitarian' destruction of Libya" that analyses the 2011 war in Libya and the motives behind it. The first article contrasts the invented war crime allegations against the Libyan government to the very real underreported war crimes by the insurgents; the second exposes a history of deceptive terrorist attacks on European soil wrongly attributed to Gaddafi and the role of NATO in the war; and the third discusses Gaddafi's plan at creating a pan-African currency as one of the central motives lurking behind the mainstream explanation of the intervention as a just one that sought to "protect civilians" from a ruthless dictator.

Part 1: Real and invented war crimes

On 21 February 2011, a week into the Libyan uprising, the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and the Libyan League for Human Rights (LLHR), two main sources for the claim that Gaddafi was killing his own people, called for the immediate suspension of Libya from the UN Human Rights Council and urged the UN Security Council to "review the situation and consider its referral to the ICC [International Criminal Court]." According to the two NGOs, "the crackdown has killed at least 300 to 400 people since February 15" and "the Libyan regime is apparently using mercenaries from Chad, Niger [and] Zimbabwe."[1] Later that day, UN Watch, a pro-Israel NGO, initiated a letter signed by 70 other NGOs in collaboration with the LLHR and the National Endowment for Democracy, infamous for its involvement in manipulating elections and instigating "color revolutions" around the world, in which it too echoed the need to suspend Libya from the Human Rights Council, in addition to urging the Security Council to invoke the "responsibility to protect" principle to protect the Libyan people.[2] On 25 February, the Human Rights Council followed the recommendation, thereby preventing the Libyan government from countering the undocumented allegations, let alone demanding that proof be submitted. Three weeks later, the Security Council adopted resolutions 1970 and 1973, authorizing a no-fly zone on Libyan military aviation. Although article 2 of resolution 1973 stressed the need to use diplomacy to find a peaceful solution,[3] the bombing began two days later.

Europe and the one hydra's head that no one wants to cut

In the last 3 years, we witnessed several terror attacks across Europe. Munich. Paris. Berlin. London. Nice. Manchester. Stockholm, etc., ... the list goes on.

What do they all have in common? They were executed within a relatively short time frame, are the work of ISIS and took place in the EU member states, particular the ones who, up to this day, provide their extensive support for terrorist activities of the so-called "moderates".

Ever since its inception by the powers of Atlanticist block back in 1949, life in EU has never been so threatening for ordinary citizens. Things that were unimaginable some 20 years ago, have now become everyday reality.

Over the past two decades, and especially after 9/11, EU leaders became increasingly involved in oversea wars, led by United States government and the globalist establishment. This led to some drastic changes, previously not known to EU citizens.

Comment: Libya's Ghadaffi foresaw the problem a decade ago.

Federal prison population anticipated to grow under 'law and order' president

The federal prison population is anticipated to grow by over 4,000 to a total 191,492 inmates, according to details included in a Justice Department budget proposal. As government-run prisons are overcrowded, private prisons could see growth.

The budget proposal doesn't include the estimated costs of prison growth, but it would reverse the Obama-era plan to phase out contracts with for-profit prison operations.

The phase out happened after the then Justice Department found private prisons more dangerous than government run-facilities.

An allegation private prison owners dispute, and now federal officials say they've improved oversight of contract facilities.

Oops: Mayor of Kiev failed to declare property in Hamburg and Los Angeles

Vitali Klichko

Detectives of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine have started criminal proceedings against the mayor of Kiev Vitali Klichko, under Article 366-1 of the Criminal Code (declaration of false information).

Criminal proceedings involve undeclared estates in Hamburg and Los Angeles, which the Klitschko family uses.

The court case came out of a TV program called "Scheme", which aired in December 2016. Reporters found that Vitaliy Klichko did not declare information about the property he allegedly owns in Hamburg and Los Angeles, where his family resides. Politicians are required by law to declare their property and investments in the public's interest.

Comment: Klitschko has been heavily involved in the Maidan uprising and anti-Russian. Is he being set up as a fall guy to show the West that Kiev is trying to clean up its act? Dommage, Monsieur Poroshenko! 'Macron doesn't care about Ukraine!'

May's new friends: Tories to form coalition with 'bigoted,' 'anti-Corbyn' Democratic Unionist Party

DUP Peter Robinson

The Tories may hang onto office with the support of the bigots of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) in Northern Ireland.

But who are the DUP?

Arch reactionary Ian Paisley set up the DUP in 1971 because the Official Ulster Unionist Party didn't hate Catholics enough for him. It now has ten of Northern Ireland's 18 MPs.

The Tories made a great deal of noise about Jeremy Corbyn's supposed links to terrorists during the election campaign. Now they want to go into coalition with people with a rotten history of backing terrorism.

Comment: The Guardian reports more on talks between the DUP and Theresa May:
The Democratic Unionist leader and most recent first minister of Northern Ireland, Arlene Foster, says she wants to "bring stability to our nation" by backing Theresa May and the Conservatives to continue in power.

Foster said in Belfast on Friday afternoon that she was entering discussions with May over the details of any arrangement that would prop up a minority government.

Foster said the election in Northern Ireland, which saw 10 DUP MPs, including two new ones, elected to the Commons, was a "great result" for the union.

She confirmed that May had been in contact with her on Friday morning about gaining DUP support for a Tory administration.

"I make no apology for wanting the best for Northern Ireland and all of the union," Foster said at the Stormont hotel in Belfast just across the road from the main entrance to the Stormont parliament, which remains shut down while talks begin next week to restore devolution.

The DUP leader said her party's triumph and the result in Scotland, where the Scottish National party suffered losses, had "sent a clear and resounding message" to those who wished to tear the UK apart.

DUP figures insist their relationship with May's team has been close since she became prime minister 11 months ago, and that late-night talks had been driven by their dismay at the possibility of Jeremy Corbyn becoming prime minister.

Fake News: Eviscerating the New York Times' 'Sarin Gas' Propaganda

An MIT national security scientist says the New York Times pushed a "fraudulent" analysis of last April's "sarin" incident in Syria, part of a troubling pattern of "groupthink" and "confirmation bias," writes Robert Parry.

For U.S. mainstream journalists and government analysts, their erroneous "groupthinks" often have a shady accomplice called "confirmation bias," that is, the expectation that some "enemy" must be guilty and thus the tendency to twist any fact in that direction.

We have seen this pair contribute to fallacious reasoning more and more in recent years as the mainstream U.S. media and the U.S. government approach international conflicts as if the "pro-U.S. side" is surely innocent and the "anti-U.S. side" is presumed guilty.
