In this episode of The Trawl, Jemma and Marina wade through a feed overflowing with madness - from world-shifting diplomacy to unhinged Trump theatrics.

Three nations, the UK, Canada, and Australia, finally recognized Palestinian statehood, prompting Netanyahu to double down on annexation and fury. Meanwhile, the US stands alone at the UN, vetoing yet another ceasefire resolution, a move Amnesty chillingly called a “greenlight for annihilation.”

Over in Trump’s America, the circus rolled on: Charlie Kirk’s bizarre stadium funeral (complete with merch stalls and voter booths), Trump accidentally DM’ing his attorney general in public, and Jimmy Kimmel getting briefly cancelled for daring to mock Donny. Disney silencing dissent and a White House openly threatening the press. Democracy is hanging by a thread.

Plus: late-night hosts fighting back, satire that hits a little too close to home, and this week’s Under Rated  of the Week.

All the news, none of the doom-scrolling.
