Why...did CNN do this
Not much evidence of a rally-round-the-flag yet...
So, not over
Donald Trump is the reason your bills are going to rise.
Repeated appearances suggest a conscious editorial decision at GB News that talking about migration + demographic change as 'genocide' + positing that it will inevitably lead to violence against the white group is a legitimate part of the mainstream political discourse
GB News is platforming an extremist narrative that is central to the socialisation of violence, including to the terrorist rampages in Europe and New Zealand & the USA

"There's a genocide happening in this island because it is being taken over by dffiferent people that are not indigenous to this land"
"I would love to know where you are planning to go when they really turn on us. Because it has happened before + will happen again"
Thomas Corbett-Dillon, GB News
on May 01, 2003, George W Bush gave a "Mission Accomplished" speech on an aircraft carrier:
"Major combat operations in Iraq have ended. In the battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed"
the actual Iraq war ended in 2011
Shouldn't have joked - they got stuck on the runway for two hours while the military suspended all flights!
Also fears of massive military conflict, but ymmv
An hour apart. Perhaps we should stop treating the mindless weathervane spinning in the breeze as if it has a clear strategic direction we can ascertain.
All we have left are memes
The truth is these are not very bright guys and things got outta hand.
Reading this article did not fill me with any hope.
Why not both?
The Trump administration is currently trapped between the specter of a global economic recession and a naval catastrophe. And it’s all Trump’s fault.
See, no problem!
The radicalised Elon Musk is now much more likely to retweet than to suspend the most racist voices who want to deport every migrants & all minorities.
Musk says the choice is "you either fight back or you die"
His active choices - not just his inaction re his legal duties - fit the definition
I consider it a tribute to @tomhamilton.bsky.social may his social media presence be a blessing
it's no big deal 🫣, you can still get connecting flights via Dubai (my parents are travelling back from Australia via there today! 🙏).
Yes.
Trump to world: Buckle Up
Oil prices surge past $100 per barrel as Iran war closes world's biggest energy terminals
People in Britain need to be really clear that the reason they are about to be worse off is Donald Trump and his enablers.
Which leading economies will pay the biggest price for the Iran war? Not the US, it turns out
Great to end my first week on the @financialtimes.com economics desk working on this story with Sam and Myles

Yes
New Quinnipiac poll shows Trump continuing to crater:
37-57 overall approval
39-58 on economy
38-57 on handling of Iran
The kicker: 55% say Iran did NOT pose an imminent threat to the US, while only 39% say it did
He's really settling in at that 38% number on many fronts, isn't he
Some of us go a little further back...
Corbett-Dillon, not very indigenous I'm afraid. Better send him back to Normandy...
