If you’d asked AI to write a piece of Russian propaganda in the style of Donald Trump, this is what you’d get. Well done America, you’ve elected a Russian asset as your President.

Good letters in The Times: one scorning Vance’s weapons-grade hypocrisy and wildly unreflective sanctimony, the other repeating the wish of so many of us, to ally with Europe and not the USA when the USA is run by tyrants.

Victoria Derbyshire replaced Laura Kuenssberg on her own show and she was 1000x... infinitely better. RT if it is time to replace the Laura Kuenssberg show with the Victoria Derbyshire show.

So America’s Secretary of State is meeting with Russia, a country that invaded a democracy, kidnapped its children, murders its critics and shoots down passenger jets in a country that murdered a WSJ reporter on American soil without Ukraine being present.

Trump stands there glowing orange, talking dangerously ignorant, incoherent shite through his puckered little mouth with his ketamine-soaked puppet master dancing around him and Putin and Netanyahu smiling and nodding… Grotesque. Intolerable. And so very damaging for America and the world.

Just endured every excruciating minute of this. With Trump sitting there, the kid wandering around, Musk gives a crash course in his theory of democracy that would embarrass a semi-literate stoner. These are fools in charge. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAuT...

The people who voted for Trump because they thought he’d pull the U.S. back from foreign entanglements and overseas adventurism are really among the prime suckers of our era.

Dumbshit Treasury brain stuff this: India and Denmark etc just said 'we would like to electrify our rail network, we will set up an arm of government to steadily do it all'. Their teams finish one project then go straight to next. In the UK we do it piecemeal with no future work guarantee, costs ££.
