“There’s no doubt that the motivation was political”. “But the real question is, was it political because they agreed with Carr’s critique, or is it because they felt from an economic perspective, it would be good to use this moment to curry more political favor with the Trump administration?”

Pregnant women deserve so much better than Trump’s theatre of scaremongering and shame | Kate Womersley There is no credible evidence linking autism with maternal paracetamol use. But the US president’s ‘tough it out’ message could harm mothers and babies, says doctor Kate Womersley

“What women need is high-quality scientific evidence, based on robust data that considers risks and benefits that can then be considered against their personal situation. This overreaching, politically motivated announcement in the US will only push that cause backwards.”

Trump’s UN speech makes it clear: the world can no longer look to the US for strong leadership US president’s speech made a mockery of UN values and highlights the need for strong anti-Trumpian alliances

Sad to see after 80 productive years! “Before Trump’s 58 minute speech on the supposed threats posed by open borders, sharia law, the UN’s failings and the “climate hoax”, the supporters of the UN’s values already knew they faced a challenge. Now they realise the degree.”

Trump has forgotten his oath of office. History will not remember him kindly | Corey Brettschneider When faced with a crisis, presidents can inflame divisions or unify the nation. Trump is taking the path of Johnson and not Lincoln

“When violence shocks the nation, the president’s job is to tell the truth about the law, to call for calm and to make clear that guilt is individual, not collective. Fault lies with one singular culprit, not an entire wing of the American electorate. The oath presidents swear is a promise to all.”

I dated Jeffrey Epstein. The files must be released | Stacey Williams This is not a partisan issue. The American people – and Epstein’s many victims – deserve transparency

“Epstein once walked me into Donald Trump’s office at Trump Tower, where I was groped by Trump as Epstein stood by and watched. (Trump denies that this ever happened). For years I stayed silent in order to protect my privacy and my family.” - Stacey Williams
