Donald Trump branded ‘insane’ on BBC as star says ‘he needs examining’ | TV & Radio | Showbiz & TV

BBC Newsnight presenter Victoria Derbyshire invited Republican and former Donald Trump supporter, Marjorie Taylor Greene, on the latest instalment of the current affairs programme, who claimed the US President’s mental capacity should be examined. Greene, who was elected to Congress in 2020 but severed ties with Trump in 2025, heavily criticised the 79-year-old US leader and branded him “insane”. During the interview, Derbyshire said: “You, of course, were one of Trump’s biggest supporters, and one of the reasons you fell out with him was over the release of the Epstein files. You have known him for years; you are now saying his mental capacity should be examined and that he has gone insane.” When asked what she means, Marjorie replied: “Well, the way that the President has acted and the words that he’s used and the change in policy that he has taken has been shocking to many Americans who supported him and voted for him.” She went on to say she campaigned with the President for years and spoke at many of his rallies …

Trump posts bizarre image of him and Jesus embracing as MAGA Christians rage at President | World | News

Donald Trump has posted an image of him and Jesus appearing to embrace despite mounting anger from Christians. The post on Truth Social was captioned: “The Radical Left Lunatics might not like this, but I think it is quite nice!!! President DJT”. The new photo was originally posted on a page on X called “Irish for Trump” alongside the caption: “I was never a very religious man .. but doesn’t it seem, with all these satanic, demonic, child sacrificing monsters being exposed … that God might be playing his Trump card!” The latest post comes just days after President Trump sparked international fury by posting an image depicting him as Jesus, dressed in robes and using divine power to heal a man. It was later taken down from the platform amid a backlash. Mr Trump claimed he never intended to liken himself to the son of God and insisted it was supposed to depict him as a doctor. A significant number of Christian voters helped Mr Trump secure his presidential election victory in 2024. But …

Furious Trump hits world with brutal new 10% tariffs – ‘I can destroy the country’ | World | News

US President Donald Trump has furiously imposed 10 percent blanket tariffs on countries all over the globe as he furiously responds to the Supreme Court’s striking down of his economic agenda. He said that he will sign an executive order today to impose a 10 percent global tariff under Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, which allows him to apply blanket tariffs for up to five months. Upset over the Supreme Court’s ruling, Mr Trump said: “Today, I will sign an order to impose a 10pc global tariff under Section 122, over and above our normal tariffs already being charged. And we’re also initiating several section 301, and other investigations to protect our country from unfair trading practices of other countries.” While addressing the media, he claimed that he now has “more power” to impose tariffs on America’s trading partners. He continued: “While I am sure that they did not mean to do so, the Supreme Court’s decision today made a president’s ability to both regulate trade and impose tariffs more powerful and …

Jeffrey Epstein claimed people were “concerned about dementia” when they met Donald Trump in 2017 because he “couldn’t recognise old friends, an Epstein Files email suggests. Dated December 29, 2017, the email also alleges that Trump was wearing “tons of makeup.” It was sent during his first term as president of the United States. The message was part of a conversation between Epstein and journalist Michael Wolff, a columnist and contributor to USA Today and The Hollywood Reporter. The full email sent by the convicted sex offender said: “Some at dinner wtih donald last night, were concerned about dementia. tons of makeup. did not recognize old friends”. It comes after the US Department of Justice released millions of files related to the late child sex offender, the largest government disclosure since legislation passed last year required the documents to be made public. The email exchange has the potential to reignite concerns about the US president’s health and suggests he may have been experiencing health issues for some time. Rumours of Trump’s declining health have been …

Trump issues stern 12-word warning to Iran as WW3 fears skyrocket | World | News

The president previously warned the Islamic regime that he would take military action if they harmed protesters. Since then, at least 2,000 protesters in Iran have been killed. Mr Trump vowed the US would take “very strong action” if the “red line” had been crossed. Issuing a stern warning, President Trump said it won’t “work out good” if claims about hanging protesters ring true. “I haven’t heard about their hangings, if there’re any,’ Trump told CBS as he toured a Ford factory in Detroit on Tuesday. “We will take very strong action if they do such a thing.” CBS’ Tony Dokoupil asked: “And this strong action – are we talking about, what’s the end game?” Mr Trump replied: “If they wanna have protests, that’s one thing. When they start killing thousands of people – now you’re telling me about hanging – we’ll see how that works out for them. It’s not gonna work out good.” His remarks came after reports from rights groups claiming that the Iranian government plans to execute the first protester on …

Trump issues major warning to Iran regime leaders as he urges protesters to ‘take over’ | World | News

Donald Trump has issued a major warning to the regime in Iran as it continues to try and quash protesters. In a post shared on Truth Social on Tuesday, the US President urged protesters, who have been taking the streets since late December, to carry on with their protests and “take over institutions”.  He wrote: “Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING – TAKE OVER YOUR INSTITUTIONS!!! Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price. I have cancelled all meetings with Iranian Officials until the senseless killing of protesters STOPS. HELP IS ON ITS WAY. MIGA!!! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP” It remains unclear what Mr Trump meant by saying that “help is on its way,” but White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters yesterday, January 12, that airstrikes were among the “many, many options” the president was considering, while stressing that diplomacy “was always the first option.” This comes just a day after President Trump announced countries doing business with Iran will face a 25% tariff on trade they do with …

Trump branded ‘delusional’ as Iran issues major threat to US | World | News

Donald Trump has been branded “delusional” by a high-ranking politician in Iran. Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, the Parliament speaker in Iran, issued a stern warning at Washington, after the US President expressed his support for the protesters in Iran. During a Parliament session held on Sunday, January 11, the politician said: “I have a message for the delusional American President. Be careful that the advice being given to you about attacking Iran is not of the same kind as the ‘consultations’ through which you claimed that Mashhad had fallen. “Therefore, in order to avoid miscalculations, be aware that if you take action to attack Iran, both the occupied territories and all US military centres, bases, and ships in the region will be considered legitimate targets by us.” The US president has reportedly been briefed on the possibility of striking Iran in response to its crackdown on the protests. In a post on social media, he said Washington “stands ready to help” after previously warning that his forces were “locked and loaded” if the regime killed protestors. …
