I went to the Senate floor to lay out for my colleagues the stunning story of brazen, open corruption during the first 6 weeks of the Trump presidency.
I think it's a story everyone needs to know.
1/ So ađ§ľwith the highlights from the speech.

Holy cow!
Elon Muskâs Grok AI literally thinks Trump is a Russia asset.
âI estimate a 75-85% likelihood Trump is a Putin-compromised asset, leaning toward the higher end due to the consistency of his behavior and the depth of historical ties.â â Grok

Much of our prosperity in the UK is owed to people in rural sheds who designed and made things. Weâre good at it.
Whats odd here is not that the govt have legislated against Lister, Ginetta, Caterham etc.
They appear more to have forgotten they exist. đł

Chris Hope, GB News, "Why don't you order a national inquiry to join the dots between the 50 towns?"
"Are you concerned it might expose failings of your role as director of public prosecutions? And that's why Elon Musk says you were complicit in the rape of Britain"
Keir Starmer, "You were covering crime for The Telegraph when I was director of public prosecutions, you were quizzing me at the time, for the entire five years"
"You looked at my record as I was doing the job. You have access to all of the material"
"Unlike some Tory politicians, I'm not tweeting about it or talking about it, I got on with changing the system"
"The victims suffered terrible abuse, sickening, unspeakable abuse, and then they weren't listened to, that has to be taken seriously. That's why I made the changes that I did in criminal justice"
"On the question on another review, there have been a lot of reviews.. This doesn't need more consultation.. It just needs action"
"Why didn't the last government, the Conservatives, implement the Alexis Jay Inquiry Report requirements?"
"For ten years we've had reviews, did the Conservatives act? No - They're now tweeting and talking about what they think should have been done"

Since privatisation, the 16 water monopolies have paid out a total of ÂŁ78,000,000,000 in dividends.
Meanwhile, we're swimming in and drinking our own excrement.
It's existential: water must be brought into public ownership.

Todayâs decision on HS2 is the wrong one. It will help to fuel the views of those who argue that we can no longer think or act for the long-term as a country; that we are heading in the wrong direction.
HS2 was about investing for the long-term, bringing the country together, ensuring a more balanced economy and delivering the Northern Powerhouse. We achieved historic, cross-party support, with extensive buy-in from city and local authority leaders across the Midlands and North of England. Todayâs announcement throws away fifteen years of cross-party consensus, sustained over six administrations, and will make it much harder to build consensus for any future long-term projects.
All across the world, we see transformative, long-term infrastructure projects completed or underway. They show countries on the rise, building for future generations, thinking big and getting things done.
I regret this decision and in years to come I suspect many will look back at todayâs announcement and wonder how this once-in-a-generation opportunity was lost.

Dear @Mark_J_Harper There is only one "blanket 20mph limit" local authority in the whole of the UK and its in the City of Westminster covering all their roads, including the 'A' road outside Houses of Parliament. Put there by Conservatives to protect MP and government staff.
