Credit to the Boston Globe for this headline. I would personally explicitly call out the racism, but this is what the press needs to do. It needs to be clear that Donald Trump did not give a normal press conference.

This documentary has just been broadcast in France, and I burst out laughing during this scene.

Trump's first reaction when he learns that a proposed ceasefire in Ukraine is accepted by Zelensky, last May, is to think that he will receive a Nobel Prize......................................... lol
Newly released footage by France, from May 10, 2025 shows Trump’s reaction after President Macron informed him President Zelensky accepted his proposed 30-day ceasefire.

Macron: “Zelensky accepted your proposal for a 30-day ceasefire.”
Trump: “Oh, good. Nobel Prize please!”

This is how it’s done! @abigailspanberger.com’s first act as Governor of Virginia is to repeal Glenn Youngkin’s executive order that mandated state and local law enforcement cooperate with ICE.

Perhaps he could start singing at some point. After all, Maduro's predecessor did this at press conferences.

It's interesting to see this opinion. I started playing it several days ago, and so far it's one of the worst Assassin's Creed games I've played. It's kind of on a par with Assassin's Creed III. For the first two hours, it was mostly a movie with "press X to win".

Really good speech from Carney at the World Economic Forum today.

Genuinely gives the impression he understands the gravity of the moment, which is why I'm struggling to square it with his actual actions and policy re: the United States.

The Carney speech is v good.
More generally, I think it’s important that the UK & EU recognise that this is a new world. And waiting for the mid-terms or 2028 and things to get back to ‘normal’ isn’t good enough.
Need to build the capacity & resilience to be less reliant on the US for security.
