  • Trump’s $10bn attack on the BBC doesn’t have to make sense. In his absurd world, he has already won | Jane Martinson

    The legal action has made news and it will do damage. A potential disaster for the corporation and the UK, but a good day’s work for this presidentLove Actually may be a terrible movie, but it provides one speech that’s hard not to wish into reality this Christmas. Keir Starmer, the actual, nonfictional UK prime minister, needs to channel the one played by Hugh Grant – and stand up to an absurd US president now bullying the BBC with a $10bn lawsuit.Just imagine for one moment that Starmer decided to make Donald Trump’s claim against the BBC the final straw for a special relationship that is increasingly special only in a bad way. That would not be outlandish, for not only has Trump taken aim against a British broadcaster, but earlier this week it seemed that his promise of an AI “prosperity deal” (bought, let’s not forget, with gurning invites to Windsor Castle) is set to evaporate. As the fictional Love Actually PM once said: “A friend who bullies us is no longer a friend … Since bullies only respond to strength, from now onward I will be prepared to be much stronger.”Jane Martinson is professor of financial journalism at City St George’s and a member of the board of the Scott Trust, which owns the Guardian Media Group. She writes in a personal capacity Continue reading...

  • From ‘odd’ Musk to ‘painful’ tariffs: key takeaways from interviews with Trump’s chief of staff

  • Ilhan Omar on Trump’s attacks on Somali-Americans – podcast

    The congresswoman told David Smith about how it feels to be targeted by the world’s most powerful man. But why has Donald Trump gone after her and the Somali community?The congresswoman Ilhan Omar is no stranger to political attacks: she is a woman, she is a Democrat, she is black and she is an immigrant. All of which have made her a perfect target for the US president, Donald Trump. But even so, what happened last week felt different.David Smith, the Guardian’s Washington bureau chief, was among those watching Trump’s televised speech in Pennsylvania last week. He was shocked to see Trump revive a conspiracy theory about Omar marrying her brother to become a US citizen, and to hear him mock the hijab she wears. Continue reading...

  • Trump’s chief of staff suggests real goal of US boat strikes is to topple Venezuela’s Maduro – as it happened

    This blog has now closed. Read our latest story hereWiles also said she had told Donald Trump that his second term was not supposed to be a retribution tour.“We have a loose agreement that the score settling will end before the first 90 days are over,” she said in an interview in March.I mean, people could think it does look vindictive. I can’t tell you why you shouldn’t think that.I don’t think he [Trump] wakes up thinking about retribution. But when there’s an opportunity, he will go for it.Some clinical psychologist that knows one million times more than I do will dispute what I’m going to say. But high-functioning alcoholics or alcoholics in general, their personalities are exaggerated when they drink. And so I’m a little bit of an expert in big personalities. Continue reading...
