Russian plot uncovered to ‘infiltrate US Secret Service’ telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2026…

AI must remain “under human control”, Xi Jinping has told Donald Trump. Speaking at the White House on Beijing’s first state visit to the US in more than a decade, the Chinese president insisted the two countries had “both the capability and responsibility to develop and manage AI for good”. @connorstringer and @poppyeh report ⤵️ telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2026…

I repeatedly asked President Xi and President Trump just now if China will release Jimmy Lai. Neither leader acknowledged the question (they did not stop for the press).

Generous

An example of what the travelling US press pool experienced in Beijing earlier this year. Rude and obstructive.

Brutal

Height mogged by @connorstringer at the White House Not booking him again

🚨 UPDATE: Chinese reporters get into a brief CONFRONTATION with US Secret Service and other American reporters as they tried shoving their way into place, or refused to move out of their current position — before Xi arrived at the White House This comes after the Chinese press was PARTICULARLY aggressive towards American reporters while they were over in Beijing Ultimately Secret Service handled it. We allow so much freedom of the press that Chinese reporters think they can do whatever they want on our soil! And the left will still think Trump is suppressing the 1st Amendment! nitter.net/connorstringer/status/…

For context - the US press is of course aggressive, but Chinese press are physically aggressive and outright refuse to listen to staff and Secret Service

It got pretty close to this. One stubborn photographer was given a stern warning.

Needed!

Chaos ahead of Xi Jinping’s arrival at the White House as the travelling Chinese press corps push and shove their way into position. Lots of shouting and raised voices as they refuse to move for Secret Service. A reminder that they trampled a White House staff member during Donald Trump’s state visit to Beijing.

Normal service resumes as Donald Trump welcomes Xi Jinping to the White House to begin the state visit.

The President of Argentina is wrong to make demands over the Falkland Islands at UNGA. The Falkland Islands are British and we must stand firm in defending them and resisting any attempts at lawfare and the use of UN institutions to undermine our sovereignty and the right of self determination of the Falkland Islanders. There should be no negotiations. Our Armed Forces showed great courage, bravery and sacrifice to defend the Falkland Islands in 1982 and we must honour their memory by defending the freedoms they fought for. mol.im/a/16153777

“Your policies here are so stupid.” Karoline Leavitt recalls President Trump’s blunt message to British Prime Minister Keir Starmer during a private lunch in the UK. Full episode out now on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.

Exclusive in tonight’s Chagos splash: Nigel Farage repeatedly lobbied the US government over Chagos over the last week. Sources close to the Reform leader say his “high level” talks with the White House have “paid off” — as Burnham is forced to review the deal.

BREAKING: Andy Burnham suggests he will review the Chagos deal after Trump called it "terrible". The PM tells @ChrisMasonBBC that he "inherited" the deal and will do "everything possible to find a resolution to the issue". But he does not reject the suggestion the deal is "dead" or will "change" because of Trump's comments after my question today. Burnham: "I've inherited the situation, and we need a resolution. “It's critical to safeguard the future of the base, and that matters to us for security reasons, but also clearly to the United States as well. “So what I said in the meeting is that we will work to find that resolution between the different sides, and we'll work hard to find it.”
