ترامپ امروز از خواب بیدار شده گفته دیگر نیازی به مذاکره با رژیم ایران نداریم. یک ساعت بعد خواهد گفت: ممد سامتینگ زنگ زده و گفته ما کشته مرده توافق هستیم، خواهیم دید چه می شود. سر ظهر میگه: ما دوبار رژیم چنج کردیم پس جنگ تمام شده. عصر میگه: بزودی خبرهای خوبی خواهید شنید.

Why is Jared Kushner leading peace talks between Russia and Ukraine? He is not an elected official, nor is he a career diplomat with decades of experience negotiating wars and international security agreements. This is the job of the Secretary of State, NOT Trump’s son-in-law, the Secretary of Grift. Kushner is only there to negotiate lucrative business deals for he and the Trumps. 🤬

Poor Dan Quayle. Bright guy. Made one silly comment and got a tough rap. I've found the stupidest VP in American history, and here he is. Meet fringe right Kamala. Thank you for sharing @ByHisGrace.

I don't know how many cabinet members and White House staff members have been forceed to live on military bases due to threats by the Islamist Nazi regime in Tehran, but that would be enough for me to take this terrorist regime out.  Just saying.

Months after a fund tied to Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump put about $30 million into a nearly bankrupt spa company, the Trump administration awarded that company nearly $40 million in federal contracts to screen for Ebola. The company made most of its money from airport spas and waxing salons. It had never worked with Ebola. It had never worked overseas. Yet part of the money is for work in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where Ebola has killed more than 5,000 people this year. The company's CEO said, "I'm not sure we can do it." This keeps happening. The same Trump-linked fund invested in a drone company, and five months later that company got an Air Force contract worth up to $90 million. A startup linked to Trump Jr. got a $620 million Pentagon loan after a top White House aide stepped in. Their fund buys in, and federal money follows. Taxpayers foot the bill, and with Ebola, our safety is on the line too. This is all totally corrupt. Americans deserve answers under oath, and our conflict of interest and procurement laws must be enforced. propublica.org/article/trump…

Lutnick must resign.

#FreeIran! Bayern steht zu den Bemühungen um Freiheit und Frieden des iranischen Volkes. Heute war Reza Pahlavi zu Gast in der Staatskanzlei – er ist Sohn des letzten Schahs von #Iran und Stimme der iranischen Opposition im Exil. Menschenrechte, Demokratie und insbesondere auch die Rechte der Frauen sind nicht verhandelbar. Alle Menschen im Iran sollen frei sein. Dazu muss der jahrzehntelange Terror des aktuellen Regimes endlich aufhören. Die Iraner sollen selbst und ohne Unterdrückung über ihre Zukunft entscheiden dürfen. Bayern zeigt dafür klare Haltung und Solidarität. Großen Respekt an die iranische Exil-Community, die unermüdlich für Freiheit und Demokratie in ihrer Heimat eintritt.

Funny. This morning I was thinking why Trump does not ask Vance and Kushner to focus on solving domestic issues instead of screwing up foreign policy.
Oh wow. This is INTERESTING. It appears President Trump is removing JD Vance from Iran completely. Vance's MOU and negotiations have all failed, and it looks like Trump no longer wants him anywhere near the Iran War. Please let this be the case.

We keep hearing again that Russia supposedly needs security guarantees. Even though no one has attacked Russia for many decades. Since the Second World War, Moscow has not gone through even one decade without starting a war or using military force against another country. So when the Russians now talk about a security architecture for themselves, or about security guarantees for Russia – they are hardly talking about real security. And peace. What they really want – is to freely interfere in the affairs of other countries, and to use force whenever they want, and to make sure that no one can support liberty inside Russia because Putin wants to keep his personal power forever and pass on his imperialist and, in many ways, simply fascist views to the next generations. From a speech at the Danish Folketing. (3/3)

JD Vance is the Neville Chamberlain of our era. Spineless, pathetic appeaser of evil. It didn’t work then. It won’t now. Finish the job and free Iran!

Politico is working on a "story" that criticism of the VP from Brian Kilmeade, Marc Theissan, and me are broadening and strengthening his support.  Now, folks, I've been around a few years.  I've seen presidents and vice presidents come and go.  I've seen politicians come and go.  I've also seen campaign operatives and surrogates manipulate a willing media in hopes of creating a pseudo-news story to advance an agenda.  In the case of the reporter, better access.  In the case of the politician, to discourage criticism.  We are not going to be played.  That said, I assume that those who criticize the VP and/or his positions will be encouraged to do so by the VP and his operatives since, according to the story to be published, it is helping him!

Why is it acceptable for Putin and Trump to call for new leadership in Kyiv but somehow unacceptable to call for new leadership in Moscow?

I agree with Mike Davis.  President Biden should NOT be treated like this by the River to the Sea bastards.  Like him or not, he was our president and this is appalling.  These people should be rounded up and charged. aol.com/articles/protesters-…
