The idea that one can avoid a dispute with Trump, whose existence requires everyone to go along with his lies, is ridiculous. Bully him ten times as hard as he gives out - until he squeals like the bitch he is. Admittedly, he seems to get off on that as well...

With Christmas coming this could be your chance to have-a-set of all this merch.

Will the BBC be showing a documentary giving a blow by blow investigation of the Epstein email releases?

They always hide in plain sight. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024...

The USA is founded on the basis of "no taxation without representation". It's time it treated its billionaires to the ultimatum "No Representation without Taxation".

At last I agree with Ben Habib.

This is perfect. If Clinton can get impeached for denying he had a BJ, then I am here for DJT getting impeached for denying he gave one to Clinton. And you know what, I was right all along:-

Once we believed the sun revolved around the Earth, then we found out that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Now many people believe that the Earth revolves around billionaires. We need to get rid of this lie too.

Trump's Presidential library will be the first inside a prison.

People have no memory of poor air quality, indoors and out, toxic waterways, blackened buildings, racism, sexism, combustible materials in sofas, unhealthy food, poor medicine, having to turn records over? If they don't believe their own lived experience, what hope is there?

just opening up the new Epstein docs at random:

The White House says the Epstein emails are fake and then goes on to name the victim who Donald Trump didn't spend hours with at Epstein's house. Strong hostage vid vibes from Karoline Leavitt there.

Uschi Glas is 81 years old. Her dad Christian died in 1992 and in all that time she never twigged that her dad had joined the Nazi party in 1931, 2 years before Hitler came to power. When your German dad says "you don't understand" about the war, it's really not a sign he is Jewish.

Protesters lay outside the #COP30 climate summit in Brazil covered in white sheets, to call attention to the deaths of activists and journalists killed while "defending land, territories and natural resources."

Trump does understand there are any number of documentaries on US politics that quote him saying his minions have to "fight like hell" just before they went off to fight like hell? If he is sueing the BBC for saying he is being misrepresented he could reflect on this.

If I were DG of the BBC:- - Question Time would only feature astronomers - Noone would mention money on Antiques Roadshow - Top of the Pops would come back - Trump / Farage / Robinson statements would be fact checked and he would only appear if the truth.

Nowhere in the hysterical pile-on against the BBC in the British press has anyone mentioned that BBC News now has 77 million viewers & listeners in the US and has established itself as the second most trusted news source there.

Christoffer Gulbrandsen's excellent film "A Storm Foretold" is available on iplayer and has Trump's exhortation "you have to fight like hell" in the Jan 6 insurrection. Disturbing insights to violent people, who hate each other even more than they do us. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

Trump pardoning his co-accused is his way of legally saying that he is as guilty as them.

I will be buying my US relatives BBC merch for Christmas.

Looking forwards to Trump sueing the BBC, so we can replay to the public how close the USA came to a successful violent insurrection.

For balance the BBC should now have a pro-communism week.

White people afraid of recognition.

Astonishing that the BBC is taking the rap from "peaceful" DJT who pardoned violent insurrectionists who clearly believed that DJT had sent them to change the election result by force. The guy is no better than bin Laden, who like him tried to inflict violence on The Capitol.

A London lawyer bought hundreds of Sheffield freeholds. Then the ‘very aggressive’ letters arrived. Scares people into paying extortionate price for freehold, 6000% profit. Previously arrested, charged with stalking offences. Govt must investigate these vampires.

London's latest Blue Plaque is a brilliant one. (It was put up at the Tesla dealership in Tottenham by campaigners)

Trump achieves Net Zero aviation emissions by 2025!!! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Super calipers expert says AI is atrocious.

Lest we forget, the man who did the Nazi salute and who wants race war in the UK, is now being empowered and is been given the target of raising an army. Sound familiar? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

A man gets given $1 trillion for a company making expensive electric cars and blowing up spaceships. His companies' liabilities are multiple and unquantified. On the subject of tax, this AI googling comes with the usual warning of inaccuracies:-

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now. 100% serious here.

This is the bit at the start of Dr Who when you realise it will need David Tennant, Matt Smith AND Ncuti Gatwa to stop the universe tearing itself to bits.

They are so good at this.

Jose Angelides is calling Maccabi Tel Aviv fan violence "politics". Strange how deflection of the issue is at the same time revealing. www.bbc.com/sport/footba...

Linkedin has subtle ways of telling you to sort your life out.

Good to remind ourselves that Andrew's misdemeanours are not the worst thing the Royal Family has inflicted on this country, since the WW1 opposition was led by another part of their family.

I am not a lawyer, just a historian, but one fundamental problem with the political debate about the EU, especially in English publications is that the whole principle of the acquis communnitaire is not understood or taken seriously. The EU is a framework of rules, not an alliance.

This implies people are nice if evil people don't incessantly whisper in their ears.

Another horrifying @unep.org emissions gap report; another brilliant cover image ❤️

We all know who is behind this

Lying in state is also what he does when he's alive.

Waiting for Farage to praise him.

Dick Cheney was my boss for about 7 months in 1999. Then it got worse.

This is good, by the great team at @nature.com

Maybe he wasn't acting
