I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.
NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

These new images of the total obliteration of whole areas in Gaza are beyond words. You can see why Israel has prevented international journalists entering Gaza to report on these indefensible scenes.

The fact that deaths resulting from the shuttering of USAID will likely number in the millions should be a much bigger story than it is. It’s one of the most malevolent actions by a government since the end of World War II and should be treated as such.

A journey through the front lines of global poverty shows that when the world’s richest men slash aid for the world’s poorest children, the result is sickness, starvation and death.

One way for news outlets to respond would be an immediate TV ban on airtime for all administration officials.
The message is clear. Given that the White House has already kicked one news organization out of the pool because of coverage it does not like, it is making certain everyone else knows that the rest of us can be barred too if the president does not like our questions or stories.
Having served as a Moscow correspondent in the early days of Putin's reign, this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given access.
