2 h. ago ‘We are pissed’: opposition to Trump, slow to energize, now shakes off its slumber

The slash-and-burn approach of Trump and his ‘Doge’ head Elon Musk has reinvigorated resistance to the Republican administrationOn a bright winter’s day this week, a group of protesters fanned out along a palm tree-lined thoroughfare in the picturesque city of Palm Desert to demand that their Republican congressman stand up to Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s slash-and-burn effort to reshape the American government. “You work for us, not Musk!” read one sign. “Remember your oath,” another warned, as a mobile billboard circled nearby, featuring the president and the billionaire tech mogul, with the message: “When he’s snooping through your bank accounts, you dump him.”The group, dozens strong, cheered wildly when the driver of a white Tesla turned the corner and laid on his horn. A smaller contingent of constituents had attempted to secure a meeting with the congressman, Ken Calvert, but found the door of his regional office locked and the blinds drawn. Continue reading...

5 h. ago Schmeichel review – amazing saves but too few insights into the great Dane

This by-numbers documentary of a glittering goalkeeping career only really kicks off when the footballer and his father get talkingIn Denmark it’s actually pronounced “Schmy-shell” — but that’s the extent of the stunning revelations provided by Owen Davies’s worshipful and rote sports doc about the former goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel, now 61. Footage of all his amazing saves – the ones that won Euro 92 for the Danish national side, or led Man U to the treble in ’99 – impressively affirm the Great Dane’s greatness.

But it’s the insights that the Schmeich...
