BREAKING: PALACE INTRIGUE! Trump gets caught privately making "snide, annoyed comments" about J.D. Vance as the worsening Iran War tears his White House apart. And it gets even better. That 2028 Vance nomination may not be sewed up after all... According to White House sources who spoke to Zateo, Trump has been insulting Vance as well as his DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard and “knocking them for not being as enthusiastic” as he'd like about his illegal and pointless war. Some White House officials were surprised by how hard Trump has turned on Vance, “if only because they had not heard the president talk that way about Vance in the past year and a half.” The growing rift between Trump and his vice president reveals just how politically clueless Vance really is. He hasn't spoken out forcefully against the war because he's a coward who doesn't want to enrage Trump or his MAGA base, but at the same time he knows that the conflict is deeply unpopular so a full-throated endorsement will harm him long-term. Lacking any real convictions or even a basic functioning spinal cord, Vance has chosen to inhabit a middle ground where he simultaneously annoys Trump and the anti-war crowd. It's the worst of both worlds. Instead of condemning the conflict, he seems to be leaking tidbits of toothless reluctance. One senior White official told Politico that Vance was "skeptical" about the war. Another said that he "just opposes" the war with Iran and is “worried about the success." Again, these are absolutely meaningless snippets from Vance. Anything short of a public rejection of the war is tacit endorsement. Meanwhile, Trump expects Vance to be an eager cheerleader for the bombing campaign that's slaughtering men, women, and children and which could soon escalate into a full-blown ground war. In fact, Trump is dispatching Vance to Pakistan to spearhead the peace talks with Iran, which Daily Beast Chief National Correspondent David Gardner predicts will humiliate Vance when the negotiations end in failure. The karma at play here couldn't be any sweeter. Vance once stated that Trump could be "America's Hitler." He then decided that serving this monster would be politically expedient and agreed to be his vice president in the hopes that it would one day lead to his own presidency. He should have known better. Everything Trump touches dies and everyone gets thrown under the bus eventually. Please ❤️ and share if you will never vote for JD Vance!

£4,000,000 a year straight into Prince William's pocket for a prison that can't be used after the party of fiscal responsibility signed a long term lease. The Tory establishment closes ranks to steal our money. @KemiBadenoch @KensingtonRoyal @griffitha It absolutely stinks.

Trump’s illegal Iran war could cost the UK economy a staggering £15bn. All cheered on by Reform and the Conservatives. Nigel Farage and Kemi Badenoch should apologise to every family now paying the price. standard.co.uk/news/politics/…

Governor Newsom Press Office (parody)
CONGRATULATIONS TO DONALD TRUMP ON ACING THE "IT TOOK YOU TWO HOURS TO IDENTIFY A GIRAFFE AND THREE HOURS TO CRACK THE MATHEMATICAL MYSTERY OF 'SUBTRACTION,' BUT YOUR TERRIFIED SERVANT (AKA DOCTOR) CALLED YOU A GENIUS INSTEAD OF ADMITTING YOU HAVE THE IQ & BODY OF A JELLY DONUT."
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Trump: "I'm the only president that ever took a cognitive test. I took it 3 times. It's actually a very hard test for a lot of people. It wasn't hard for me. It starts off with an easy question and by the time you get to the middle it gets tougher -- mathematical equations and things."

We have always said we will not know the whole truth about Hillsborough until we know the truth about Orgreave. Same police force. Same tactics. Five years earlier. We are grateful to the Government for delivering on its manifesto promise. 🙏🏻 theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

@ZackPolanski It’s painful. Meanwhile, housing minister @mtpennycook claims that ending leasehold, a @UKLabour manifesto promise, is NOT abolition of the tenure. We are “naysayers and bad faith commentators”! The cheek of the little people wanting control of the homes they thought they own.

This stops being funny as soon as you remember this decrepit, incoherent, stumbling ruin has custody of the nuclear codes. It is staggering that aside from the occasional Democrat like Chris Murphy or Newsom, no-one - hello @nytimes ? dares to raise this cognitive train wreck, or shout the 25th amendment! Clear and present danger to the Republic

Nigel Farage’s visit to Ipswich Town this week has sparked a major backlash. Fans have accused the club of allowing itself to be used for political purposes, but there is also internal dissent at the club’s handling of the affair. The Athletic can now reveal that the club’s depiction of the visit, as presented to both staff and media, is being heavily disputed. This is the inside story of a chaotic 72 hours. 📝 @Dan_Sheldon_ 🔗 nyti.ms/3Pxq08A

Here’s all the INSANE things that Trump said at his cabinet meeting today: On cognitive tests: “I aced it. I got them all right… President Obama, he wasn't a smart man. I know all about him. He wasn't a smart man. Highly overrated.” On his post-presidency plans: “After the presidency, I think I may go to Venezuela and run for president against Delcy. It's an option!” On the missile allegedly shot at the US base at Diego Garcia: "They shot the now-famous Ireland [sic]--- the island that the UK was very afraid to give us." On his “big present” from Iran: “They said to show you the fact that we're real and solid and we're there, we're gonna let you have eight boats of oil. Eight big boats of oil. I think they were Pakistani flagged.” (this 100% did not happen) When Sec. Burgum told him about oil being brought to America: “Forget that. When are they gonna do the statue of me?” On energy prices: "It's not over, so maybe it'll go up a little bit more. It's all gonna come back down to where it was and probably lower. And my predictions have been right. Trump was right about everything. They have a new hat." On Iran: “I'm the opposite of desperate. I don't care. In fact, we have other targets we want to hit!” On using a mail-in ballot: "I used a mail-in ballot. You know why? Because I'm President of the United States and because of the fact that I'm President of the United States, I did a mail-in ballot." On the National Guard in DC: "I never wanna take [the National Guard] out of D.C. I mean, maybe somebody later on will do it, but I never wanna…We see these beautiful, strong people, and they're so nice. They help, they open the doors for people, they carry bags, they pick up paper on the ground." On the Strait of Hormuz: "The amazing thing is we don't need the Hormuz Strait. We don't need it. We don't need it at all. We have so much oil. Our country is not affected by this." On pens: "See, this pen right here. This pen is an interesting example. It's the same thing. So this pen is very inexpensive. But it writes well. I like it. But I can't have the pen the way it was. You know what it is. I don't want to give too much publicity but they do treat me well. Sharpie." 25th. Amendment. NOW.

BREAKING: IS HE SMOKING CRACK? Trump declares that Iran offered to make *HIM* Supreme Leader in jaw-dropping show of complete demented delusion! Yes, you read that right. During last night’s GOP congressional fundraiser, Trump declared that the Islamic Republic of Iran had offered to make him their Supreme Leader. “Nobody’s ever seen anything like we're doing in the Middle East with Iran.” slurred the President. “And they are negotiating, by the way, and they want to make a deal so badly, but they're afraid to say it because they figure they'll be killed by their own people. They're also afraid they'll be killed by us.” “There's never been a head of a country that wanted that job less than being the head of Iran. I listen to some of the things they say. hear them very clearly. They say, I don't want it. We'd like to make you the next Supreme Leader. No, thank you. I don't want it.” This man is off his rocker. This is an INSANE thing to say that is obviously, laughably untrue, and yet every Republican in the room just sits there and uncomfortably laughs like the spineless cowards they are. We are reaching unheard of lows of desperate copium-huffing delusion by the world’s most pathetically insecure man, and it is the clearest evidence yet that this man cannot be allowed to make the decision to sacrifice our brave military servicemembers in a desperate, foolhardy invasion of Iran whose real objective is protecting Trump’s ego from having to face the humiliation of being an absolute imbecile who made a colossaly stupid decision. 25th Amendment now.

Remember during the biden administration when conservatives were scared because they thought Joe was a senile old man at the end of his life, being controlled by those around him, would start ww3 in Iran and their solution was to elect a senile old man at the end of his life being controlled by people around him that started ww3 in Iran? Classic.

Trump is getting a daily 2-minute “highlight reel” of successful U.S. strikes in Iran — basically explosions and wins — raising concerns that he may not be getting the full picture of the war, setbacks included. Source: NBC

Sarah Vine calls Starmer a “dead man walking” — while the Cabinet Office admits they had McSweeney’s messages all along. Funny. When it was Tory scandals (partygate, VIP lanes, £12bn Covid fraud), Vine was silent. Data point: 1,200 Tory breaches. 0 resignations demanded by Vine.
