The war in the Middle East and the climate emergency roll on while Justin Webb giggles his way through both #Americast and #r4today The BBC pays him over £365,000 a year for his clueless 'insights' and sniggering regarding vital issues.
Since Justin Webb seems to find discussion of the war by the US in Iran so amusing www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... perhaps he might share his views with the parents of those killed at the Shajareh Tayyebeh school to see if they find his giggling appropriate. #Americast
The Republican Party own the disaster that is the war in Iran and the chaos that it has unleashed. Trump could have been stopped by Congress but Johnson, Thune et al chose not to. The problem is not just the irate ignorant toddler that is Trump-The sickness is the GOP. #Americast #bbcpm
Justin Webb was keen to demonstrate that any errors by Joe Biden were examples of his mental incompetence but Trump can come out with obviously irrational nonsense that he and others on #r4today and #Americast normalise.
If you want to know why the Republican Party is the cesspool it is don't listen to Justin Webb and #Americast but instead read this and the rest of DG's great works.
Perhaps Trump promoting a racist and sexist agenda is part of him 'making America normal again' in the view of Justin Webb www.rawstory.com/hegseth-blac... #Americast #r4today
We need a return to listening to the Carl Sagans of this world than the right-wing sock puppets so beloved by #r4today #Americast and other BBC shows crooksandliars.com/2026/03/carl...
Trump admits it's a war.
Trump knows Congress has to approve.
Trump admits he is calling the war something else only to avoid needing Congressional approval.
Trump knows he is acting illegally and he is brazenly telling us he knows.
Is this normal, Justin Webb?
#r4today #americast
If you want to know about American politics and life listen to professionalleft.blogspot.com with my good friends @bluegal.bsky.social and @driftglass.bsky.social Not the increasingly clueless apologists for Trump on #Americast or Justin Webb in particular on #r4today
Justin Webb and the current lot of presenters at #Americast have normalised the corruption of Trump and his administration. They hold them and the president to no standards of decency. That was shown when Trump reveled in the death of Robert Mueller-Was he castigated for that on the show?
You can't expect Justin Webb to hold Trump to account-Think of all the money he makes from his articles in The Times and as an 'American expert'-If he had to admit the truth that his knowledge was based on what his extreme right-wing mates tell him then that would all be over. #r4today #Americast
Isn't there somebody in the current crew of #Americast willing to confront the fact that this man is clearly unfit for office? Or are they going to continue to normalise what is clearly very disturbing behaviour?
If Justin Webb had been presenting in the early 1960s would he have been so amused about voter suppression and Jim Crow laws as he obviously is about the SAVE act? www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... #Americast
Republicans do support cancel culture-They believe in cancelling the lives of those who don't agree with them. #Americast
The convicted felon Trump has voted by mail in a Florida special election-I presume that the #Americast crew will be noting the rank hypocrisy of the GOP regarding this. I won't be holding my breath.
I 'like' the way #r4today and #Americast have normalised the corruption of Trump and the Trump administration by simply not talking about it anymore. I imagine that this situation will change when a Democrat is elected to The White House and then every gaff will become a crisis overnight.
For 'traders' read 'friends of Trump'-But the corruption of this administration has been normalised by #r4today and #Americast to such an extent that they simply don't mention it anymore.
Justin Webb et al on #Americast understand nothing about the modern Republican Party while Heather Cox Richardson shows how it can be done www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZit... The rank idiocy of Mr Webb and friends is painful.
The office of the President of the united States has sunk this low.
We all know Trump is a liar. Even those at the BBC who are his cheerleaders, who insist he is making America normal again.
#wato #r4today #americast
Unlike Justin Webb this person understands the modern Republican Party youtu.be/cZitIRcj-0M?... #Americast #r4today
These two brilliant historians understand America-Justin Webb and the current crew of #Americast do not.
Trump is the man who Justin Webb said was 'making America normal again'. If this is 'normal' for Mr Webb then I suggest he stops making comments about the USA and instead limits himself to rugby union. #Americast #r4today
Trump 'making America normal again' Justin Webb? #Americast #r4today
Could Justin Webb let us know if appointing people like Mr Phillips to important roles in his administration is part of Trump 'making America normal again'? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... #Americast #r4today
Yup, totally normal.
#r4today #americast
President Bone Spurs talks about cowardice in others but really he is referring to himself. He knows he has always lacked courage but can't bring himself to admit it so lashes out when the going get tough. #Americast #r4today
Who could have thought that electing an incompetent venal ignorant loon would result in things going south very quickly? Obviously not Justin Webb (who laughably is paid good money for his deep insights into US politics and life!) www.thetimes.com/us/american-... #Americast #r4today
When are we to get the next Murdoch-funded masterpiece by Justin Webb in The Times about Trump 'making America normal again'? #Americast #r4today
Would Justin Webb characterise this behaviour by Trump as an example of him 'making America normal again'? #Americast #r4today
