Breaking News: A GOP congressman, James Comer, rejected Bill Clinton’s conditions for an interview on the Epstein files, setting up a contempt vote. That would be the first step in a process that could potentially lead to the Clintons’ criminal prosecution.

In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

I think someone needs to go into a care home.
Trump: "The people heading up the lawsuit - like this guy named Leonard Leo, he's a bad guy - people that are very China-oriented & foreign car-oriented. They're suing to get rid of tariffs! Like Coke. Coke has businesses outside the US. If you have 'em outside, you don't want tariffs"

Amazing moment on French TV. A French judge explains how Trump sent people from the US Embassy basically trying to intimidate her during Le Pen's trial for embezzlement - something they've done to other judges around the world.

Trump is acting like an international gangster.
The Prime Minister has tried appeasing him for 12 months and has failed. It's time we finally stood up to him and united with our European allies to make him back down.

Trump’s USA is not an ally, it’s an enemy. What we see today is a reincarnation of 1930’s Germany. It does not represent the majority of decent Americans who are even more horrified and frightened than we are overseas.
