Has Vladimir Putin's illegal invasion of Ukraine inspired or influenced Donald Trump? Take a listen to our latest episode with Dr. Julie Norman who says the US President's latest actions over Ukraine would suggest that that's the reality 👉 linktr.ee/ohgodwhatnow...

How can Republicans see this happening and still have belief in the people in and around the running of government? Steve Bannon isn't a nobody – and this should be taken just as seriously as the Nazi salute Musk was accused of making.

Donald Trump is wading ever further into Ukrainian affairs. Is he betraying Ukraine, and can we now describe him simply as pro-Russian? Dr. Julie Norman gives @dorianlynskey.bsky.social, @rafaelbehr.bsky.social, and @rmcunliffe.bsky.social the lowdown! 👂: linktr.ee/ohgodwhatnow...

Trump's bromance with Putin isn't really a bromance at all. But no matter how you look at it, it is very dangerous, @irgarner.bsky.social tells me. Listen to the latest episode of The Bunker for the latest on the relationship between the two and who needs who the most.

Does Trump really care about healing social divides across America? I asked Reverend Professor Keith Magee about Trump's claim to make Martin Luther King Jr's dream come true. Is it all just grift?

In his inauguration speech, Trump said that he would bring Martin Luther King Jr's dream to life. It didn't feel true or heartfelt. I asked Reverend Prof Keith Magee what he thought and whether there's any true desire to fix US divisions. Take a listen to what he said 👇 youtu.be/V76ELXdzHAg

Trump’s allies think he should just ignore the courts that try to stop him. Can he? Plus, while MAGA destroys everything, it’s hard to stay hopeful. Dr. Keith Magee joins us to discuss how to bridge political divisions and stay, somewhat, positive in the new Trump era ➡️ linktr.ee/americanfriction

It seems like the US and China have been edging towards war for quite some time. Will things change now that Trump's back in the White House? Watch my full interview with Isaac Stone Fish of Strategy Risks, where he says Elon Musk could have a big part to play in this!

Trump has been pretty brutal with his foreign policy so far – just ask literally everyone. Is this an act that will bring a positive outcome or will it all end in tears? And what about China, could Musk act as a middleman between the two with his heavy business links in China? Take a listen! 👇

I covered the LCFC helicopter crash in 2018 - a terrible and tragic accident and a jury only just this week decided the incident was an accident. Yesterday, Trump, less than 24 hours after the incident in DC, held a press conference where he politicised what happened and imparted blame. Shameful.
