"Russia Threatens Trump's America Over Venezuela News Round-Up In this news round-up of the week Russia considers giving Maduro its latest hypersonic missiles to use to defend himself against Trump's America even as China is protesting about his threats to its strategic partner Nigeria. The administration has begun a charm offensive to persuade its supposed allies that it really CAN be trusted when it comes to intelligence sharing. And Elon Musk is granted a theoretical $1 trillion payday - the big 'if' attached to it doesn't cancel the enormity of what that figure for one person really"

"How Trump Is Wrecking The MAGA Succession When President Trump's second term started the notable thing was just how far-reaching his actions were just how norm-breaking and transgressive they were and how little his supporters seemed to care. Suddenly the story has changed. Now there have been three occasions where his MAGA base was divided because Trump did things that run counter to the emerging orthodoxy. What had seemed previously to be a pure cult of personality has turned into something with a much more ideological wing. And that completely transforms the practicalities of the"

"Leaked Illegal Order On Venezuela Boats Could Be War Crime According to the Washington Post President Trump's defence secretary Pete Hegseth ordered specifically that there should be no survivors from the first of the US military strikes against boats in waters close to Venezuela. This meant that when two people survived the initial strike the US navy carried out a second strike specifically just to eliminate those survivors - an act that would be considered by international law as murder as a war crime or both. The news has Republicans in Congress launching moves to hold the administration"

One half are noticing the blatant corruption and they aren't happy because they believed in 'draining the swamp'. The other half are caught in a purity spiral that nobody can survive and they are most furious this week with RFK Jr's pick of Casey Means for Surgeon General.

"Has The World Really Given Up On Climate Change As the COP30 climate conference approaches it's hard to ignore that a backlash against climate policy - and a scepticism in some quarters about climate change full stop - is growing in many parts of the world. Partly this is down to the Trump effect with Trump himself actively pushing countries to commit to fossil fuels and with MAGA-style populists taking up the anti-net zero theme wherever they rise. Partly it's also due to the moment - and the fact that the political pendulum swings back eventually. So what does that mean for our progress in"
