With the FIFA peace prize already in the bag, he’s done the double now. But can he push on for the fabled treble by winning the Proud Boys Racist of the Year?

Confirmation from Trump that he uses tariffs as punishments based on his personal view of who is brown nosing him. It’s all a power trip. National security? My arse.
And, that he doesn’t even know who he’s talking to.
Trump: "So I put on a 30% tariff, which is very low. I got an emergency call from I believe the prime minister of Switzerland. She was very aggressive ... I didn't really like the way she talked to us, so instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%."

Reform UK approached Bangor University to ask whether Sarah Pochin (Reform MP) could come to debate. They said no, and this is the response they get

Reform would behave exactly as Donald Trump. Don't agree with them, and they will penalise, threaten, defund, and cancel you. They are proto fascists.

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

JD Vance invited Giorgia Meloni to ‘say a few things’ but it was presumably not what he was expecting and it’s just glorious

If Bad Bunny had performed the Macarena or Despacito, would MAGA still have been annoyed that he sings in a foreign language?

Trump is such a POS.

The content is so undeniably racist. There are no accidents that caused it, no humour behind it, no explanations that remotely cut it. It’s on him, and he hasn’t even got it in him to own it.

USA, hang your heads in shame
Donald Trump declined to apologize for sharing a video depicting former President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama as apes, telling reporters "I didn't make a mistake."
'I didn't make a mistake' Trump says of post depicting Obamas as apes
"I look at a lot of, thousands, of things," Trump said of the video. "And I looked at the beginning of it, it was fine."

The UK is socialist? Jeeeez, nobody told me.
I have been focussing too much on the grasping billionaires running shit into the ground for their own gain, and encouraging a growing sense of ugly nationalism and racism to create division.

Couldn’t agree more, this makes me rage 🤬

Or should I say, it makes myself rage.

Combine this with people who can’t use apostrophes plus an inability to get your/you’re and their/there/they’re right, and I’m ready to give up on humanity.

“Have some fun?”

She was asking about sex trafficking allegations you idiot.

But you want to demean reporters to try to make them afraid to be serious with you all. You want everything trivialised.

Btw, would any of you tell Stephen Miller to smile more and have some fun? Didn’t think so.
Vance: There was a moment in the Oval Office, I wasn't even in there, but Trump was talking to Kaitlan Collins. Trump says, 'Why don't you ever smile?' And it's actually, like, so perceptive. Have some fun.
