During President Trump’s tour through the Middle East, the White House released daily lists of the dozens of deals it said he had secured during his visits.
However, at least half a dozen of the contracts were announced before Trump even took office in January, according to a Post review.

So what's next after today's May Day mobilizations?
On June 14, Trump wants tanks in the street and a made-for-TV display of dominance for his birthday.
But real power isn't staged in DC. It rises up everywhere else. That's why we're planning a nationwide day of action to say No Kings. 🧵

We do not know who these deportees are, why deported, if they have criminal histories. Tattoos aren’t evidence of a crime. Trump says they’re all criminals but without due process we simply do not know. Based on Trump’s illegal deportations of others, I believe he’s lying #Voices4Victory #Fascism
The video of Trump’s deportees arriving in El Salvador is horrific.
This is 21st century Nazism.
Identities concealed, trafficked to a foreign labour camp. No due process, no evidence of crime. Dehumanised.
Where is the global outrage?
The crime is historic; the normalisation catastrophic.
