If Trump wants to see elections in Ukraine, all he has to do is use the power he keeps talking about to get the Russian invaders off Ukrainian soil. Then martial law in Ukraine ends, and elections will follow.

Thank you for scolding me that if I get upset at Trump doing X I am playing into his hands by being distracted from his doing Y. However: 1. I am perfectly capable of being upset by more than one thing at a time. 2. He doesn’t care if I’m upset. 3. He only cares about being able to do what he wants.

Since Britons increasingly see Brexit as a mistake and do not approve of Trump, what is driving the Reform polling? Is it purely immigration?

A lot of misinformation going around about this 'Gazan's using the Ukraine Scheme' court case. This is an unreported case from the Upper Tribunal available here: tribunalsdecisions.service.gov.uk/utiac/ui-202... 🧵

So I've lived to see a US President condemn a country for not surrendering immediately to an invading Russian army.
