Hi Turlough. I've just read

Posted on Fri, 27 Mar 2026

Hi Turlough. I've just read this while chewing my morning toast accompanied by a nice chunk of Camembert, and it set me thinking about the US and its relationship with the rest of the world. Rather alarmingly, under this president, the US seems...
