UK officials fear ‘Zelensky-style clash’ between Trump and King Charles – Guardian

The planners of the monarch’s visit to the White House reportedly want to avoid potentially “humiliating” incidents

Published 28 Apr, 2026 01:14 |

UK officials have pushed to bar journalists from a meeting between King Charles III and US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office,out of concern over potentially embarrassing incidents, The Guardian reported on Tuesday, citing people involved in planning the monarch’s trip to Washington.

According to the newspaper, the White House agreed that themeeting between the two leaders should be held off camera to avoid what it described as “potential humiliation.”Trump and Charles will pose for photographs but will not be filmed “talking about anything substantive.”

UK officials reportedly want to avoid a “Zelensky-style clash,” referring to the infamous White House meeting between Trump and Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky in February 2025, which ended in a shouting match in front of the press.

Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance publicly berated Zelensky, accusing him of being ungrateful for the aid his country received under the previous administration. Relations between Trump and Zelensky were eventually repaired after several European leaders reportedly advised Zelensky on how to handle himself with the president.

King Charles and Queen Camilla arrived in the US on Monday and posed for photographs with Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump.

The visit comes two days after a gunman attempted to assassinate Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner at the Washington Hilton in Washington, DC. The suspect, identified as Cole Thomas Allen, allegedly tried to rush toward the ballroom where Trump was seated, but was tackled by Secret Service agents.

Count one: Knowingly and willfully making a threat to take the life of, and to inflict bodily harm upon, the President of the United States

Count two: Knowingly and willfully transmitting an interstate commerce of communication that contained a threat to kill the President of the United States

(I like Blanche much more than Bondi. He never injects fear, shouting and being the only one take the air out the room. He’s not trying to get attention, but telling the situation with gravity. He’s getting more comfortable and he’s highly educated to not say anything that incorrect.

EXCLUSIVE REPORT

Infowars writer Jamie White’s murderer Rodney Hill had his sentencing hearing moments ago.

The judge just ripped the prosecutor after reading a victim’s impact statement from Jamie’s sister.

The judge said they will NOT ACCEPT a plea deal that gives Hill less than 25 years in prison.

The prosecutor was offering Hill 20 years in the plea deal.

Hill will reappear in court on Thursday.

If Hill does not accept the judge’s terms, he will go to trial.

Hill rapped in a song about murdering Jamie and cited his “white” race.

I exclusively obtained audio of Hill’s friend saying Rodney shot Jamie the moment Jamie attempted to confront the group while they were stealing his Kia.

==We have a BREAKING NEWS update on the Virginia Gerrymandering referendum with

@KenCuccinelli as the VA Supreme Court upholds injunction halting redistricting vote certification.==

In simple terms, the Virginia Supreme Court has decided to keep a "pause button" pressed on the results of a recent special election that would redistrict the map while the lawyers continue to argue over whether the rules were followed correctly.

Remember how Spanberger was so joyous and smug when she released her orders on changing the law in VA. It turns out VA has a very different state constitution than almost any other states! Too bad. Now we need to expose her theft of the election.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court of Virginia has denied the Attorney General’s Motion for Emergency Stay in RNC v. Koski - the one where he didn’t quote the ballot language.

One sentence. No dissent. No partial relief.

“Upon consideration whereof, the Court denies the motion.”

What this means in plain terms:

Jay Jones’ outside counsel from California asked the Court to allow the election process to proceed pending the rulings on the merits of the gerrymandering cases.

The Court said “no.” This stops the election from being certified for now.

The same Supreme Court that allowed the referendum to go forward in March, so voters could be heard,has now declined to override a final judgment finding the constitutional amendment process defective. Strong signal that process matters in Virginia.

The Attorney General asked the Court of Virginia to set aside a final order that exposed a ballot question he would not quote, an Article XII timeline he had to redefine, and a 1912 case that did not say what he needed it to say.

The Supreme Court said “no.”

The merits appeal continues. I will keep you posted as this develops.

AI can cost more than human workers now

Axios

IT budgets are getting blown out as some companies increasingly spend more on AI than on employees' salaries.

Why it matters: Maybe human labor will be more cost-efficient after all.

What they're saying: "For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees," Bryan Catanzaro,vice president of applied deep learning at Nvidia, told Axios.

Uber's chief technology officer already blew through his full 2026 AI budget due to token costs, according to The Information.

Amos Bar-Joseph, CEO ofSwan AI, bragged about his Anthropic bill in a viral LinkedIn post,saying "We're building the first autonomous business - scaling with intelligence, not headcount."

Zoom out: WorldwideIT spending is expected to reach $6.31 trillion in 2026, up 13.5% from 2025, according to Gartner.

That increase is being driven by "sustained momentum" across AI infrastructure, software and cloud services, which includes everything from the AI buildout to the cost of AI subscriptions.

Yes, but: Even companies with the biggest IT budgetswill need to prove returnson AI spending over time, especially if they're answering to shareholders on quarterly earnings calls.

That could look likeproof of productivity gains or metrics that show a clear return for all this AI investment.

"The tone is shifting a bit more into what is the true value of a worker … human or digital?"said Brad Owens, vice president of digital labor strategy at Asymbl,which focuses on workforce orchestration.

What we're watching: How rising costs impact enterprise spending at the major AI labs.

An OpenAI investor told Axiosthat the shift could benefit them, since they view Codex as superior to Claude Code at maximizing tokens efficiently, cutting down on usage costs.

Anthropic has changed its pricing to account for a spike in demand.

The bottom line: When AI labs raise prices, big spending on AI could shift from a flex to a liability.

Is Ghalibaf becoming Iran’s Khrushchev?

(Former United States President John F. Kennedy (R) meets with Nikita Khrushchev, former chairman of the council of Ministers of the Soviet Union, at the US Embassy residence in Vienna, Austria in this June 1961 handout image.)

Reports that Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf may have been sidelined from Iran’s negotiations with the United Stateshave revived an old question from Soviet history: can an insider reform a rigid ideological system without becoming one of its casualties?

Ghalibaf may be emergingnot as Iran’s Mikhail Gorbachev,but as something closer to Nikita Khrushchev—. an establishmentfigure attempting controlled change not to dismantlethe Islamic Republic, but to preserve it.

The Majles speaker, a formerIRGCcommander with deep ties inside the security establishment,has in recent weeks appeared to sit at the center of Tehran’s debate over diplomacy or confrontation.

Supporters of diplomacy see negotiations as a way to stabilize the system and prevent further confrontation with the West. Hardline factions warn that concessions would undermine the ideological foundations of the Islamic Republic.

US President DonaldTrump, intentionally or not, has helped fan the flames by publicly portraying Iran’s leadership as divided, echoing the way Washington’s rivalry with the Soviet Union often intensified internal debates in Moscow.

The comparison with Gorbachev has appeared before in Iranian politics. During the reform movement of the late 1990s, President MohammadKhatami was frequently described as “Iran’s Gorbachev.”

Hardliners used the label to attack him, while parts of the oppositionembraced it in the hope that his reforms might accelerate the system’s collapse.

In reality, neither Khatami nor his allies accepted that role.Their reforms were framed as an effort to strengthen the Islamic Republic rather than dismantle it.

More importantly, the structure of power at the time made a Gorbachev-style transformation nearly impossible.

Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei held ultimate authority and maintained the balance between rival factions,limiting both reformist ambitions and hardline overreach.

The conditions today are markedly different. Iran has endured direct external military pressure,and the legitimacy of the system has been shaken by recent protests. A younger generation appears deeply alienated from the ideological foundations of the state.

At the same time, the supreme arbiter who once managed factional competition no longer appears able—or willing—to impose the same discipline.

In such circumstances,change may come not from a reformist outsider but from a figure embedded within the system itself. Ghalibaf fits that description. His background in the IRGC, his political experience, and his connections across multiple factions give him a platform few others possess.

Yet any move toward accommodation with Washington provokes resistance from ideological loyalists who view compromise as betrayal, even as warnings grow that without meaningful change the system could buckle under pressure from abroad and deepening discontent at home.

Here the Soviet analogy becomes harder to ignore.

Khrushchev’s reforms were intended to strengthen the Soviet system, not dismantle it.. But attempts to modernize rigid structures often produce consequences their architects cannot control.

In 1964, Khrushchev was quietly pushed aside by his colleagues and officially “retired due to old age and ill health.”

If Iran’s leadership ultimately chooses a path of limited reform to preserve the state,Ghalibaf could still emerge in such a role.

But if the system rejects even controlled adaptation, he may instead become an early casualty of its resistance to change.

(Reading about Iran’s various leaders seems to show the problem within the country, because they all have different motives and plans. And different layers of radicals. Whoever is writing this it’s very good.)

Kudlow calls for Iran’s unconditional surrender - Fox

Larry Kudlow, a former White House economic adviser, said Iran should surrender unconditionally, arguing mounting economic pressure has left the country with little leverage.

Speaking on Fox Business, Kudlow said Iran is “hanging on by a thread,” citing falling oil revenues, inflation and fuel shortages as signs of deepening strain.

Kudlow said the current pressure campaign could lead to internal unrest, describing the situation as “the stuff of revolution, not negotiation.”

"Your government can't seem to show the IRGC the door, but it can find a way to roll out the welcome mat and receive him. Leader, why is your government still unable or unwilling to enforce Canada's terrorism-related inadmissibility rules? What's the point of listing the IRGC if you're not serious about throwing him out of our country," Housakos asked.
