People keep asking what Russia has on Trump. Maybe there's something, but there's an easier explanation: Trump loves strongmen, but more, he HATES losers: losers literally disgust him. He was disgusted by John McCain because he crashed. Because he was taken prisoner. Because he was tortured. 1/3

"You have honored every patriot in this country, every patriot grave" said Steve Bannon to the CPAC crowd, moments after they'd cheered his Nazi salute to them.

All we need is to get in front of Trump a deepfake video of Putin laughing at him. Or, you know, just a video of Putin laughing at him.

If Lavrov and Rubio signed a secret protocol at their non-aggression pact lunch in Saudi this week, what would it be? Split the Arctic?

It's been some time since an actually good Bond film anyway (despite actors' performances and excellent stunt work) #bbcpm

You want to jump off this fast-moving train? The whole time you were shovelling coal, you knew where it was heading.

The Russian Ambassador to the UK repeatedly uses the word 'cypher' to mean number. I think Victoria and the rest of him understand him, but that's quite the oversight at the KGB language centre. #Newsnight

If the weather had been different in September 1620, who knows America might be a completely normal country and there'd be one deeply weird evangelical church in Plymouth, Devon.

So Elon's cut out the middleman and started bombing Poland himself? #bbcpm

STOP pretending any of us believe that Trump's playing 5-d chess. It's nonsense. Interpersonally, he's cunning. Politically, he's a simpleton. We know this. #bbcpm

Sorry, what's hair colour got to do with your report of the dead boys? #wato

Trump loves Scotland because of his mother and "all those lynx"? Finally a clue. #wato

The US seems rather less interested in appeasement than in building an Axis #wato

I'm confused by Nasa's attitude to epistemic probability. As reported, they say there's a 3% chance this asteroid will hit earth, but that 'this is likely to drop to zero when they know more'.

How do you be Marco Rubio? Honestly.

NB - this isn't appeasement, this is an Axis. #wato
