Makes Trump look like a dribbling baboon.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

This supercut is likely to make Trump VERY upset. The difference between Trump and Obama is on full display, and the contrast is absolutely devastating. Watch until the end...

I was shopping in Brighton and antizionists tried to stop me buying Israeli goods from Waitrose. They said I’d be “racist” to buy them. I asked if it was xenophobic to boycott a whole nation. They had no answers. So I bought LOADS of Israeli products and they were NOT happy.

The disgusting attack ad in the Ohio governor’s race points to a much bigger problem in politics. The political parties don't care about the character or integrity of their candidates anymore. They only care about power — no matter what it takes. We need common sense leadership, and once again, the parties are failing to meet the moment.

Barack Obama decided to hit Pete Hegseth with the elbow from the top rope. Absolutely brutal takedown.

OBAMA: He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory. It's gold everywhere.

@cl_meadows Absolutely stonking film.

We watched 'Leon' the other day, Bec had never seen it, she now understands why I say this is the best film ever made.

The most wonderful person on earth (to me anyway)

[French Embassy UK🇫🇷🇪🇺 @FranceintheUK]

For the first time, @RoyalAirForce Typhoons have joined French air force @Armee_de_lair Rafales in an exercise organized by the airborne nuclear component’s Strategic Air Forces. A milestone in 🇫🇷🇬🇧 defence cooperation, demonstrating the two European nuclear powers’ coordination and commitment to Europe’s security and a credible deterrent.

[Wes Streeting @wesstreeting]

This week RAF Typhoons have flown alongside French Rafale jets - the first time the UK has taken part in a French nuclear air exercise. It's a landmark step in UK-France defence co-operation, and a clear signal that we stand shoulder to shoulder with our allies on European security and credible deterrence.

Incase people are confused on what a humanitarian looks like , I give you President Zelensky, a great war leader, a true hero

[Sacha Lord @Sacha_Lord]

For those mocking the PM for going on Gogglebox:

It's for Stand Up to Cancer.

For those mocking his tattoo:

It's the Manchester Bee, done after the Manchester Arena Attack, where 22 died and 100's more were injured.

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. https://t.co/8AyV60gg1X
