Panorama should just re-edit the programme.

Removing the edit Trump complains about.

Replacing it with the last 1 minute 16 seconds of his speech, unedited.

In which he repeats exactly what Panorama put in the edit.

What the run-up to the budget should be proving conclusively is that there are an awful lot of vested interests demanding that their perks remain exactly as they are being crucial to growth etc.

A fire after a drone attack on Saratov oil refinery.

The local governor even confirmed that drones, not debris have damaged the infrastructure object.

The oil refinery has been attacked several times before, most recently about a week earlier.

I’m no journalist- but if only there had been a voice over to say ‘Trump later went on to say ….’ The words were spoken by him, they didn’t employ Rory Bremner to speak the words!!!! Trump encouraged the insurrection and did Fk all for hours to stop it. I pity America daily and fear for UK 🤦‍♀️

What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.

This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.

When Trump wants to pardon a drug trafficker, befriend a terrorist, or praise a dictator because they did something to benefit him personally, when confronted with their past crimes he always either minimizes them or claims that they were treated unfairly. While Republicans just go along with it.

Another sign of a pathetic human being.
Trump says he didn't really need to demolish the East Wing to build his fancy ballroom, but he just didn't like it and wanted it gone.

He also claimed he's built many many ballrooms and "This will be one of the greatest ballrooms in the world.”
