The reviews for “Melania” are going to be far more entertaining than the movie. What a fabulous headline:

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️

We finally got gun-control.
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

From “healthcare hero” to target of state violence.
They want this story buried.
The city just put it on a screen the whole world can’t ignore.

If Maduro has barely been mentioned lately, think what else hasn't been reported.
In this video, I run through various things that have happened in the last 2 weeks in the US that really matter even if they aren't making the front pages.

After one day of unity over Trump the Mail, the Telegraph, Times and Badenoch have decided the Chagos are more important than the destruction of the western alliance and backed the insane ramblings of a rogue president who was fine with the deal last year. We see you #collaborators
Choosing sides between a rogue president bent on destroying the Western alliance and UK and EU governments finally standing up to him shouldn’t be difficult for mainstream political parties or news organisations. So come on Telegraph, Times, Badenoch and yes you Farage if you want to be PM…

Davos is looking a bit of a disaster for Trump and the MAGA crowd. After Trump was forced to TACO on Greenland, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was tonight heckled during a speech at a dinner. Christine Lagard, European Central Bank President, walked out mid-speech.

There are literally only two ways forward: the American people deal with a clearly unwell president using the constitutional means at their disposal; the rest of the world deals with it by putting the strongest mitigation measures available. And you hope the US military won’t follow a nuclear order.
