The DOJ was required to release all Epstein files, with limited exceptions, by December 19.

According to a court filing last night, the DOJ has released only 12,285 documents.

More than 2 MILLION documents remain unreleased.

I'm very pleased to see that the new pedestrian crossing of the A2 at Blackheath Hill in Greenwich has been finished.

This has been much needed for far too long and will help people safely cross these busy roads.

Big thanks to the @tfl team.

With 30,000 people killed or seriously injured every year on this country's roads, I can't believe we haven't had a Road Safety Strategy since 2011.

This week the government will be publishing a new one. Well done @liliangreenwood.bsky.social & team.

Looking forward to seeing the details.

Yes another example of just how lethal Range Rovers and other massive SUVs are to pedestrians, cyclists and other road users. Time for proper regulation to reduce the huge increases in vehicle and bonnet size @londoncycling.bsky.social

Genuinely wonder how European and Irish leaders do respond to this.

How are Denmark, Greenland or indeed the people of Ukraine and Taiwan feeling too?

We are well past time that people across Europe, including the UK, should be actively avoiding buying from US businesses. Not always easy but there are alternatives to Amazon, Tesla, US food products and US technology. And obviously many better holiday destinations than Florida.

"literally like I was watching a television show"

Trump thinks this is all a tv show. That it's all entertainment. He's insane.

A defining moment for Europe. If it endorses/fails to condemn this flagrant breach of international law, it will have surrendered its core justification for opposing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
JUST IN: Trump says the U.S. has captured Maduro and his wife and flown them out of the country.

Europe now has authoritarian regimes on both fronts.

The only winners from this are arms companies. Every nation will now feel threatened. Will squeeze spending everywhere as people race back to cold war levels of spending.

Days like this are a stark reminder that the UK undertook Brexit at historically the worst possible moment. Bloc politics is here to stay and fiddlearsing about with 2mm advances towards smoother customs arrangements with the EU is not the leadership Britain needs.

Venezuela now, because he wants the oil.

He wants the oil under Greenland too. And under Canada. He's openly called for them to be part of the USA.

How long before he decides to bomb a couple of NATO members to get his own way?

The USA is a rogue nation.

A US president uses his for-profit (but money losing) social media site to announce a military strike against a foreign sovereign nation and the seizure by military force of a foreign government leader. Says a lot about where things are at in the US in 2026.

None of us are safe. Nobody. And that includes Americans.

Not all leaders are the same - and it matters who sits at the top so a big screw you to the people who elected Trump and the people who are still saying that Harris would have been just as bad.

Kidnapping the leader of a foreign state without any declaration of war and announcing it via social media is full-on rogue state stuff. From the world’s number one superpower.
