How the right-wing British press became Trump’s trumpet Churchill would be appalled by the kinds of things Donald Trump says and does. But Fleet Street is happy to ignore history for the sake of some political point-scoring, writes Alan Rusbridger

"How the right-wing British press became Trump’s trumpet"

The British RW press isn’t just reporting Trump—it’s amplifying him, weaponising his rhetoric, and recycling his framing to influence UK politics. Ironically making the "patriotic press" - unpatriotic.

Remember back in the day when Congress used to be in charge of appropriations?

‘You’re a washed-up loser lawyer’: Pam Bondi taunts Democrats over Epstein'

At least they're not prostituting themselves via their law degree to Donald J.Trump, Pammy Jo.

You can try and run away from the Epstein scandal, Donald J. Trump, but you can't hide. We see you.

Murphy on Fox News Sunday: "I mean -- c'mon. We're still pretending that ICE is going after dangerous people? They aren't. What is happening in Minnesota right now is a dystopia. ICE is teargassing elementary schools, it is disappearing legal residents into cars, it is murdering American citizens."

I Really Don't Care- Do U?

Q: What's the difference between Kristi Noem and a chipmunk?

A: Nothing

I guess they are pretty upset.

For some reason.

My contribution to the 'Melania' critique is around the soundtrack to the movie.
I really don’t know why they left out the most appropriate song for the soundtrack: ‘You’re So Vain’. 🤣

Most immigrants get jobs driving Ubers or working in the agriculture sector. Immigrant Melania got a job having sex with and producing a child for Donald J.Trump. I don't know which is the hardest job to have to do.
Actually, I do. Being a baby machine for a dirty old man. Just like young Karoline.

While JD Vance 'stayed a little back from the front line' typing puff pieces for the military.
Because, at heart, he is a lily-livered coward who would run at the whiff of grapeshot. Just like his President,
the Bone Spurs King.

Oh look who's still in her post, after 2 state-sanctioned murders in cold blood on the streets of Minneapolis-Kristi Noem!

What a surprise. Not.

Not to mention the vampiric 🧛 architect of the ICE Gang Bangers- Stephen Miller.

And Trump saying 'Is the coast clear?'

Rod Stewart calls out “draft dodger” Trump for denigrating the service of allied combat vets, and says that PM Keir Starmer must insist that Trump publicly apologize.

The party of law and order literally just wrote themselves a memo that says they don't have to follow the 4th Amendment.

That's right, ICE intends to perform illegal search and seizures without a warrant.

Add that to the list with "we had to beat up the police on Jan 6 to defend our democracy".

“President Trump is absolutely right — the USA has done more for NATO than any other country in the alliance has done combined,” Taylor Rogers, a White House spokeswoman, said when asked to respond to Keir Starmer’s criticism earlier Friday.

I didn't know NATO was a dick measuring contest? 😒

😬

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

Never in my most cynical dreams did I imagine so many people willing to sell out their own country for money, attention, clout, out of spite, ignorance or hate.

That will remain the most heartbreaking part of this ordeal.

America is such a beautiful idea.

We are becoming unworthy of it.
