Trump described the judges who voted against his tariffs as foreign assets who are disloyal to the US constitution.

(Interesting, considering his accusations are confessions.)

I'm a bit of a fan of Leslie Howard. Having met his great-grandson and filmed an interview for a new TV documentary this week, I've written a two-part blog post on Leslie's contribution to the Allied war effort.
