Close analysis of video footage shows Renee Nicole Good attempting to drive away from ICE agents before one of them shoots her. But that doesn’t fit Trump, Kristi Noem, and JD Vance’s narrative.

The level of quixoticism at this point is like Kemi Badenoch spending all day trying to win over Your Party voters. What part of ‘no’ does Blue Labour not understand?
1% of Reform UK voters have a favourable opinion of the Labour Party, compared to 98% seeing it unfavourably, including 89% who view the party *very* unfavourably.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
