To the United States now, where Donald Trump has got himself embroiled in another Twitter storm, this time with a Hollywood superstar.

Well in the United States – Donald Trump has named a leading climate change denier to run the Environmental Protection Agency – alarming campaigners who say Scott Pruitt is a friend of the fossil fuel industry and will roll back years of progress on policies to tackle global warming.

The Obama Administration has said relations with China could be undermined following last week’s telephone call between President-elect Donald Trump and the Taiwanese President.

Donald Trump last night kicked off what he is calling his “thank you tour” – taking a bow following his victory in the election.

In his first public appearance as President-elect, Donald Trump has stepped in to save the day at a manufacturing plant in the mid-West. He has done a deal to keep nearly a thousand jobs in the US that were bound for Mexico. How has he done it?

The President-elect’s nominees for his administration’s highest economic posts have wasted no time in setting out their plans to overhaul existing trade deals. Those comments came as Mr Trump acknowledged concerns over a conflict of interest between his presidency and his business empire, tweeting that he’ll leave his company.

Donald Trump has begun planning his future White House team, but just when you thought it was over,  a recount of presidential election votes in the US state of Wisconsin will begin on Thursday.

The direction that President-elect Donald Trump is taking America is becoming clearer. He has appointed three conservative loyalists and army veterans to lead his national security and law enforcement teams.

In 63 days … Donald Trump will be sworn in as President of the United States of America.But who he will take to the White House with him, largely remains a mystery – aside from two appointments. The Trump transition team says, there’s no chaos – it’s all under control … even making time today…

He didn’t run his campaign by the rules. Indeed, it’s why, many say, Donald Trump won the US election. It looks certain he won’t run his Presidency by any rules either.

As Russia resumed its attacks on Syria, Barack Obama flew into Europe on his final visit of his Presidency.

A new political tone, and landscape, is now being set in the US as Donald Trump starts to build his team. And the messages he’s sending, perhaps not surprisingly, are mixed and controversial.

The protests continue. The latest, in Portland, Oregon, turned violent, with police declaring a riot and making 26 arrests after shops  and cars were attacked and rubbish set on fire. Donald Trump, after initially accusing the media of inciting “professional protesters”, later tweeted to praise the passion of the demonstrators for their country.

After many months of brutal criticism, a more civil discussion. The Republican President-elect meets the current President for the first time.

What went wrong for Hillary Clinton? Never the most popular of candidates, it looked like she’d done enough to hold on to the states she needed to be assured of the keys to the White House.
