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

β€œYou’d think he’d be busy monitoring the wildfire consequences of the war he’d just started. But, no, he entertained himself by slagging off the British leader to any British journalist who’d listen.”

And they did more than listen. They disgraced themselves.

Andrew Neil lives in a mansion in France that he moved to using EU rules where he doesn't pay any tax in the UK.

And he spends his time moaning about the EU he chooses to live in and the poor state of the UK, which is due to tax dodgers like him.

Thousands of Kurdish volunteers have launched a ground invasion with CIA-supplied arms in Western Iran, according to a US official.

I feel sorry for them.

Trump is using Putin’s meatgrinder tactics.

Le Monde investigates the bombing of a girls' school in Minab that claimed more than 180 dead. There was no ambiguity that this was a school when it was attacked, they write. This was a clear war crime that reminds of Hegseth's statement that there would be no "stupid roles of engagement."

Trump's war on elections is hiding in plain sight False claims that foreign government interference caused him to lose in 2020 have been a staple of the diet of lies Trump feeds to his faithful.

Donald Trump is seeking to collect massive amounts of information β€” including personal and partisan voter data β€” at an unprecedented scale. He is trying to pressure AI companies into allowing unrestricted use of their powerful tools against American citizens. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Noem Can’t Explain Why She Hired 8-Day-Old Company for Ad Campaign Kristi Noem struggled to defend hiring a company linked to a political operative.

I can explain it. This is pure corruption and graft so she and her cronies could get richer. No hidden motives here. Friends of this cabinet get rich and not prosecuted. (or they get pardoned) That's the deal for supporting Trump.
