Convenient timing for a trade deal, I suggested. Only you would think that, Trump replied
The White House press pool had already spent 25 minutes listening to Donald Trump and Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission president, set out the terms of talks at the start of their meeting. We had been ushered back to a cramped holding room, equipped with coffee and cookies and too few power sockets. The European journalists had just been bussed out of the US president's Trump Turnberry golf club while the 13 of us in the White House pool filed our stories. Then we got the call that we were heading back. It sent us scrambling for notebooks and audio recorders before running helter-skelter back to the Donald J Trump ballroom. There could be only one reason. 'So we have good news,' Mr Trump said from his chair in front of the vast picture windows looking out on his famous golf course and dunes. 'We reached a deal.' A small audience including his sons Don Jr and Eric as well as other White House staff applauded. It came as a surprise in the moment. The burly cameraman behind me was still panting from our sudden exertion. Barely an hour earlier, Mr Trump put the chances of a deal at 50-50. But to the canny, the signs pointing to a deal had always been there. The meeting with Mrs Von der Leyen was a last-minute addition to Mr Trump's trip to Scotland. He did not even have his top two trade negotiators on Air Force One. But on Saturday they flew out to join him. Something was obviously in the air. And then Mr Trump, in that first press 'spray' (as it is called in White House lingo), had even hinted a deal was close. 'We have a good chance of getting it resolved,' he said. 'We'll probably know in about an hour.' This was the deal he wanted; 'the biggest of all the deals', as he put it. He flew out of Washington on Friday dogged by questions about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and just what his administration knew about the dead paedophile. Deals with Japan, Vietnam and the Philippines had been announced last week but hadn't budged the news media, which kept up a steady drip drip drip of headlines on a scandal that should have ended when Epstein died by suicide in a jail cell. The five-day trip to Scotland was a chance to escape the crisis and spend time at his beloved golf clubs in Ayrshire and then Aberdeenshire, where he will open a new course on Tuesday. Now he also has a major win, that will bring investment and cash to the US. Could it be that the sudden breakthrough was the product of the need for a big win that could change the media conversation? That was the gist of my question to Mr Trump. 'Only you would think that,' he said with half a smile, 'on a day … which is good for European business and American business.'

Kim Kardashian reacts to 'unimaginable' Idaho murders - and urges public to help find missing woman
Kim Kardashian is feeling the weight of two heartbreaking true crime cases, and she's using her platform to shine a spotlight on both. On Sunday morning, the SKIMS mogul, 44, shared her raw reaction after watching One Night in Idaho, Amazon Prime's gripping documentary about the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. 'I'm watching One Night In Idaho, I thought I knew the story from the news but really had no idea,' Kardashian wrote on her Instagram Story alongside a photo of her TV screen. 'It's really emotional and you can feel every friend and parents pain.' She continued: 'So many details I just didn't know. Ugh it's just unimaginable.' The timing of Kardashian's post comes just days after Bryan Kohberger — the man convicted of killing Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin — was sentenced to four life sentences plus 10 years. The brutal stabbings rocked the small college town of Moscow, Idaho in November 2022 and captured national attention for months. Though Kardashian didn't speak directly about the verdict, her emotional response to the documentary echoed the pain still felt by the victims' families and public. Just an hour later, the mother-of-four posted about another case, this time, a haunting missing persons mystery, covered in Netflix's Amy Bradley is Missing. 'This doc is mind blowing. Must see,' she wrote. ' We must find Amy! This is so crazy.' The documentary, Amy Bradley Is Missing, recently hit Netflix and revisits the baffling 1998 disappearance of the 23-year-old American woman who vanished from a cruise ship off the coast of Curaçao. Despite alleged sightings over the years and multiple theories, Amy has never been found. With over 356 million followers on Instagram, Kardashian has previously used her platform to advocate for wrongly convicted prisoners and to highlight flaws in the justice system. In May, she completed her law school program after a six year journey. Kardashian didn't attend traditional law school. In California, individuals can become lawyers by completing a four-year Law Office Study Program (LOSP), also known as 'reading the law,' instead of going to law school. 'I thought I knew the story from the news but really had no idea. It's really emotional and you can feel every friend and parents pain,' Kardashian wrote on her Instagram Story She still needs to pass the Bar Exam to practice law in the state. Over the past six years, Kim has dedicated roughly 18 hours a week to studying law, totaling more than 5,000 hours. Her efforts paid off when she passed the 'baby bar' back in 2021. Kim's process took longer than four years due to the COVID-19 pandemic and her busy schedule. Kim had already passed the Multistate Professional Responsibility Examination back in March — a big exam for her program — sources told TMZ. She is following in the footsteps of her late father, legendary attorney Robert Kardashian. He gained national recognition in the mid-1990s for his involvement in O.J. Simpson's murder trial, where he served as a friend and defense attorney on Simpson's legal 'Dream Team.' He passed away in 2003 from esophageal cancer. He was 59 years old. The reality TV star reportedly plans to take the bar exam in 2026.
