Was it for this that the US spent 80 years building power and alliances? Not to be a force for good. But instead to impoverish neighbours, threaten those it protected, rob minerals from war-torn countries, and break its promises to 100s of millions of the poorest in the world? 🧵

Having a little blocking spree of the Putin apologists and the Trumpettes. Global condemnation for Trump and Vance, but they can't accept that he was in the wrong.

.@brianglenntv, let’s get something straight: Zelensky’s been wearing military fatigues since the day Russia invaded his country. It’s not a fashion statement, it’s solidarity with his soldiers who are dying in trenches while you’re playing dress-up with Marjorie Taylor Greene.

One of the astonishing things about the Oval Office Omnishambles is that JD Vance manages to be worse than Trump. It might seem impossible to be worse than a President who is bullying a leader representing a country standing up against annihilation but, credit to JD, he finds a

Absolutely bloody brilliant @Keir_Starmer, walking up the street to meet @ZelenskyyUa, not waiting on the doorstep. A very powerful message indeed to the #WankerInTheWhiteHouse You have made me proud to be British, a very rare thing since 2016. #FuckTrump

📸 No one follows more etiquette rules than the Royal Family—but notice how King Charles didn’t make any smart-ass or demeaning comments about Zelensky’s attire today. Why? Because respect isn’t about clothes—it’s about character. And that’s something money can’t buy.

After Trump’s disgraceful bullying of Zelensky today, aided and abetted by sidekick Vance, why would we want Trump to pay a state visit to the UK? Can the invitation letter be withdrawn?

Early days, but Sir Keir Starmer made himself an international statesman on his visit to the White House. A leader and a diplomat. A serious Prime Minister rather than a social media clickbait merchant. Pulled off something we haven’t seen since Blair and Bush in terms of

Bloody hell, President Zelensky is taking on both Trump and Vance in the Oval Office. He is the only leader who's visited Trump who is telling it like it is. He's got more balls than every other man who's ever been in that room. #SlavaUkraïni

Could Trump be jealous of the admiration Zelensky draws? That was a shocking interaction and looked like intentional bullying to me.

@TheTennisLetter The support from those who truly know Jannik- Ruud, Berrettini, Draper, López, speaks volumes. The players standing by him are ones of integrity, class, and genuine character, both on and off the court. That tells you everything you need to know.
