Everything Trump touches is transactional.
We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

The War in Ukraine started in 2014. It lasted through Trump’s first presidency. He was impeached for his “perfect” phone call with Zelenskyy. The full invasion started on February 22, 2022. Trump promised an end in 24 hours. It’s now 11 months into his second term and no peace.

On an election debate stage in 2016 we were warned by Hillary Clinton about Russia’s intervention in media and political manipulation. We’ve seen those warnings become real, before our eyes, just as we saw January 6, 2021 #PutinsPuppet #DefendTheConstitution🇺🇸#ProtectDemocracy🇺🇸

Over at the Daily Telegraph, they're scratching their heads as to why the former mining and steel producinv city of Gliwice in Poland is now 45% more prosperous than Darlington... and why it has new shiny infrastructure... without mentioning EU funds for urban and regional development...

As James O’Brien explained, these people aren’t bothered about a small thing the BBC got wrong, they’re bothered about all the things the BBC gets right.

What you’re witnessing is a populist assault on the BBC.

This is not an institutional scandal in any meaningful sense of the word. It is an attack on public service broadcasting.

I've always felt that Johnson and Farage put self-interest over the national interest - hence their dallying with Putin and his oligarchs. But directly colluding with a foreign government to take down the BBC feels like an act of supreme treachery

Watch this.

Open your eyes to this brutality.

ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.

Now share this.

Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.

You have power.

Even sharing this video exerts that power.

The Trump administration is REALLY allowing Qatar to build an air base in the US after they did a $5.5 billion golf resort deal with Trump and gave him a jet.

MAGA can take their ‘America First’ flags and wipe their asses with them. He is Trump First, and you are suckers.

This is the judgment on the PPE/Medpro claim.

A cracking £122m win for the Government Legal Service

And is wonderful to see the government bringing a claim in contract against a shoddy supplier.

This does not happen often, and it should happen far more.

Trump has been the worst president ever for farmers.

Twice.

But they voted for him three times.

Now they want the rest of America to give them welfare.

When they did it to themselves.

But they don’t like socialism.
