Reposted by Imke HenkelJames Ball @jamesrball.com · 09/11/2025The BBC is apologising for its Panorama edit. It shouldn’t. First, the narrative is true: Donald Trump *did* incite the Capitol riot. Second, the apology won’t appease those attacking it. So why not at least stand for something? Wrote this on it earlier this week: inews.co.uk/news/world/b...inews.co.ukThe BBC was right about the Capitol riots. In a sane world, Trump would be in jailThe US President faced impeachment over the violence, and in a world where Republicans had more courage, he would have been found guilty 531547444
