They also quite rightly completely distrust any deal he makes with them NOW. He's quite capable of tearing THAT up too.

(Everyone on the entire planet feels that way about everything agreed with the US btw.)

"When the Biden administration tried to coax Iran into a similar agreement a few years later, Iran’s leadership demanded a guarantee that a future Trump administration would not simply tear it up again, according to former U.S. officials. They had no way of providing one."

Trust Trump? Iran’s Doubts Shadow Peace Talks

"They remember the way ... Mr. Trump imply abandoned a nuclear deal Iran had struck with the Obama admin ... after nearly two years of negotiations. Mr. Trump did not claim that Iran was violating that deal; he simply didn’t like it."

I've always believed he won't tackle Putin in good part because he is PERSONALLY scared of "nooks."

‘Admitting’ Trump lost in 2020 is a pretty low bar. Kevin Warsh lacked the courage to clear it. Next, please.

ELIZABETH WARREN: Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?

KEVIN WARSH: Uhm, we try to keep politics if I'm confirmed out of the Federal Reserve

WARREN: I'm just asking a factual question

WARSH: I believe this body certified the election

WARREN: That's not the question I'm asking

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.

It was worth it.

🚨Virginia — today is Election Day!

Trump said the quiet part out loud: “If Democrats get additional House seats with this referendum, they’re gonna be making changes at the federal level.”

That’s the whole point! Fair maps = Trump loses power.

Please vote YES! 💙🗳️

Doesn't look like agreeing to Trump's absurd demand for an end to edited interviews got you much, CBS. Maybe next time choose *not* to get extorted?

If I were the Iranians, I'd claim that I was unable to hand nuclear material to the Americans because they'd successfully destroyed it all. Force Trump to admit that he'd failed & then lied about it.

The damage Trump has done to America in the world in the last year is incalculable and will take years to fix...if it ever can be fixed, if the leadership of the world community has not already been wholly ceded to an established kleptocratic autocracy. (By a would-be kleptocratic autocracy.)

On the other hand, no one ever lost money by telling billionaires what they want to hear. The airwaves are full of the oligarchs' minions, reciting their creeds as if these were some kind of arcane truth they've stumbled across. Almost every political conversation is dominated by these elite lies.

Starmer as PM has the reverse Midas touch. But he was hired by the Labour right for one job: to get rid of Corbyn. Having done this, he has more than outlived his utility and is now on the point of handing the whole bang-shoot to Zack Polanski and Nigel Farage.

Trump’s presidency is what evil looks like: absurd, frightening, cruel | Nesrine Malik Commentators have said that the US president’s clownishness and lack of ideology somehow make him less dangerous. They’re wrong, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

This is very good. We're getting to understand this man as he enters the cusp of the past tense.

Why is the Maga project teetering? Because not even Trump supporters voted for this dysfunction | Moira Donegan The president’s fixation on culture-war grievances is a colossal misreading of voters who just want prices to come down, says Guardian US columnist Moira Donegan

"What if the 2024 election was not a revolt of conservative American people, but a plea for change from a working class that has long felt that it was falling behind? ...people voted for him because they thought he would send employment up and prices down?" www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Robbins just landed his torpedo.

He regrets that, despite the significant concerns uncovered by due diligence, the Prime Minister chose not to seek vetting clearance before nomination was made public.

This is why Simon Case advised vetting be sought.
