I was excited that she was in it, but everything else was awful including a blonde Robert Shaw, who had nothing to do except be a boringly robotic heavy.

Trump’s family is embroiled in a $500m UAE scandal. We’ve hardly noticed | Mohamad Bazzi A crypto startup founded by Trump’s family signed a huge deal with the UAE president’s brother. Where’s the political fallout?

“How can Washington credibly pressure the UAE on its role fueling a civil war in Sudan, when the Emirates’ national security adviser is a business partner of the US president?” — my latest for @theguardian.com on a Trump corruption scandal that should be getting a lot more attention
