The combined negotiating 'skill' of Vance, Witkoff, and Kushner would be laughed out of any elementary school lunchroom. In a million lifetimes, they should never be on a world stage.

Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...
Worth noting that prior to the Trump regime, lawsuits - or even threats of lawsuits - against news organizations by sitting public officials were very rare, thanks to the halcyon days of 1960s SCOTUS rulings (NYTimes vs Sullivan, AP vs Walker). Another sign of our disintegrating democracy.

Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United.
Harlan Crow's political contributions then went up 862%.
Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit.
