There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.

Witkoff is not buying the Russian narrative. He is selling it.

As a nice Jewish girl I have deplored Netanyahu and his settlement policies for years.

NYT is simply off-base AGAIN with their unfettered pro-Israel, right or wrong take.

Pete Hegseth is right: Mark Kelly shouldn't be a senator.

He should take Hegseth's job and be SECDEF.

I'll be on MSNOW at 4pm to talk more about it.

That’s why I hate the whole “When I was your age…” bs

Why would I, who had to navigate something difficult/harsh and saw others do the same, want that for a younger generation?

We survive and thrive as a species by helping/making things better
I hate when a person had it tough and believes that those that come behind them should suffer greatly as well.

Especially my own people. Why would you want to hand down pain and disappointment instead of wisdom, opportunity, and encouragement?
