In case you're wondering how slow justice moves: after the Trump administration investigated my podcast and removed me from my job at the VA in 2019, I filed a complaint.
We still don't have a trial date set. We're waiting on a summary judgment ruling after a hearing last August.
"Easy for us.." meaning 'easy for him' - he just goes on playing golf surrounded by luxury, he's not going to be the one suffering the consequences
Very few clever, capable intelligent people with good reputations are likely to want to work for Trump. Firstly it'd destroy their reputations, secondly they'd probably be asked to carry out illegality & thus risk their freedom afterwards. Trump can only get idiots to work for him
True, but at least we can get our own back using social media, that's not the case in dictatorships like Putin's where he can decide what margin he wants to win by, whatever his actual vote might be
Excellent piece
Trump has raked in at least $30 million…from his own cabinet.
20 members have funneled millions right into Trump’s pockets through political donations, visits to his properties, stock holdings in his companies, and other donations.
The grift never ends.
Only 600k people needed to have their minds changed from remain to leave to affect the result. It was one vote where there were probably more "undecided" than any other election. Constant social media influence could easily push that number to leave, believing they'd be better off
Same problem Iraq had - how do you prove a negative - it was impossible for them to prove they didn't have WMD, so no one believed them & they were attacked.
Trump says he's obliterated Iran's nuclear program (like he did before), but no one can prove that, so future attacks are just as likely
Same one that visited Maxwell?
So if he says lots of nice things about Trump, he'll demand Bolsonaro gets a prison upgrade?
I get the feeling Hannan is on LSD most of the time. Totally divorced from reality
A fiasco.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the worst Defense Secretary in US history?
Let’s see what Donald Trump and pro-war republicans like Lindsey Graham have to say about this. I’d also be interested in John Fetterman’s thoughts. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/11/u...
If this isn't abuse and fraud, I don't know what is.
We have no government right now.
This is what happens when you don't have a government.
(you get abused)
Bush Jnr was incompetent & left policy to others, but he wasn't a psychopath & at least had the intelligence to know what he didn't know & then leave it to experts. Trump is so stupid he thinks he's a genius who doesn't need experts
The biggest TACO anyone has ever seen. An absolutely yuge TACO. The Florsheim of TACOs.
Yep, replace an old authoritarian religious dictator with a young authoritarian religious dictator, only the young one, having just had his family killed, is even more likely to target USA interests with religious fervour
Brilliant
When things go wrong then authoritarians become even more authoritarian
His main ability was buying into upcoming industries. Having bought & profited from other people's expertise, he then proceeded to push the idea that he's some great inventor/sage. However everything he's promised since has failed to come true. It's always jam tomorrow.
NEW: The Iranian drone strike that killed 6 U.S. troops in Kuwait at the start of the war was far more devastating than previously disclosed.
Dozens suffered traumatic brain injuries, burns, and shrapnel wounds. At least one required an amputation. More than 30 remain hospitalized. (CBS News)
This is the guy who likes to downplay non-fatal injuries suffered by US service members in combat.
A tax barrister sued me personally for £8m for libel after we linked him to a tax avoidance scheme.
Today the High Court struck out the claim, granted summary judgment, and ruled it was a SLAPP. The judgment is highly critical.
Also servants on the islands & houses, no way would Epstein or Maxwell shopped, prepared food, washed & cleaned etc. There must be an army of those people who would have seen lots. I've not seen any mention of them
Let's hope nothing 'untoward' happens to them
He could have said "get the f*ck out of Ukraine"
Not great when the only people in the free world who believe and trust Vladimir Putin’s word on critical things despite all evidence to the contrary are currently running the government of the United States.
It’s amazing how activated the 1% class becomes when a modest, one-time billionaire tax is even being discussed. It makes me think we really need to tax those guys.

Putin has instructed Trump not to trust anything loyal Americans tell him, especially U.S. intelligence services and the Pentagon.
The russian dictator exercises reflexive control over Trump by using handlers – the russian agents Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner and Pete Hegseth.
Nigel Farage aide George Cottrell is betting $41,000 that the US war with Iran will last for another four months, despite Reform UK calling for an end to the conflict.
