George Santos is demanding $20,000 from Jimmy Kimmel for Cameos

Jimmy Kimmel announced a new segment on his show last Friday, titled, “Will George Santos Say It?,” in which he "pranked" the former congressman by paying for Cameo videos under anonymous names, requesting that Santos read out absurd messages. The first video in the series, “Jimmy Kimmel Pranks George Santos on Cameo,” brought in 1.4 million views in just three days on YouTube; but Santos may have the final laugh. Having been booted from Congress on December 1, the self-described “People's Princess” has continued to serve the public through Cameo, a site where fans can pay celebrities for short, personalized messages.

Nigel Farage is destroying his own legacy

From our UK edition

How's this for a terrible confession? There has always been a small part of me that admires Nigel Farage. As a Remainer liberal, it's hard to admit. I disagree with Farage on many things. And my (partial) admiration doesn't mean I forgive him for some of the low points of his political career, not least the disgraceful ‘Breaking Point’ poster unveiled in the lead-up to the EU referendum, nor his earlier comments about migrants with HIV. Yet I have a soft spot for outsiders, particularly ones like Farage who beat the odds.  What Farage achieved, all from outside a two-party system pitted against him, is unprecedented in the history of British politics.
