So let's get this straight: Trump wants Ukrainian minerals cheap. #Zelenskyy says no. Trump undermines Zelenskyy's authority and legitimacy although the dictator is his mate #Putin. Is that about right?

When I was at school, I learnt that one of the major pillar of the US constitution was its checks and balances to stop the executive from amassing too much power. Was this 🐂💩? #TrumpTariffs #TradeWars

#Portugal is possibly one of the most anti-railway countries in the world. Situated at the arse-end of Europe there is no connection between its capital and the Spanish capital, Madrid. EU funds continue to be spent on roads. #Progress
