Met this feisty pheasant on a recent walking weekend in the Angus glens of Scotland. Real tough guy. Didn't like us being on his land. Stood his ground and finally chased us away to the city. Much respect, sir!

In a war with no winners, Netanyahu looks like the biggest loser www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...
Netanyahu is bombing Lebanon because his political career (and therefore avoidance of prosecution) depends on constant war. How many more people must die for the sake of one man's standing?
More reflections. Control of Strait of Hormuz is big win for Iran, which they won't relinquish long-term. Surprising number of Iranian missiles/drones were not intercepted. Should be more attention on Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Hezbollah/Houthis likely emboldened by Iranian resilience.
Reflections before more Trump hubris. To claim legitimate victory Iranian regime only had to survive war. Uranium remains in place. Airstrikes don't remove regimes like Iran. Trump confirmed (again) as unhinged and unreliable. War unpopular in US. Outlook for Gulf economies (travel/tourism) bleak.
In a sane world, in a world of accountability, the man who incited a deadly insurrection five years ago never would have been able to hold public office again. That reckless, abusive man needs to be removed from office. Now.
For how how long have we been told that the US has this fabulous written Constition whereas we do not?
But the US Constitution has been shown to be the emperor with no clothes
It might as well be a blank sheet of paper
It might as well not exist
The US is acting entirely on the whim of one man
An Easter message from the president which should really force the VP and the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment.
This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.
This is absolutely fantastic.

Marco Rubio declared that under the Constitution being born in the USA does not make you a citizen unless your parents are citizens.
Marco Rubio's parents were Cuban immigrants who were NOT citizens at the time of his birth.
Do you think Marco will now self-deport?
How humiliating.

This might be the most unhinged thing he’s ever tweeted, and that’s saying something.
He’s flailing. Has no idea how to get out of this war cleanly.

Genuinely hard to overstate how much of a strategic defeat it would be for the United States if the war ends with effective Iranian control of the Strait.
He’s absolutely insane.
