Another excellent piece by @lewisgoodall.com on the dizzying last few days and Trump’s latest “Putiniste vomit”
Trump could have pushed for an end to the war in Ukraine without becoming actively hostile to Ukraine. Instead, he has imbibed Putin’s lies. Have written about the emergence of a new US/Russia axis, where it comes from and the staggering implications for Europe.

The stupidity we have seen in the last 18 hours makes you wonder if The US Education system is fit for purpose!
Jared Kushner was asked last year about the fear that Netanyahu would never let Gazans back in if they leave:

"Maybe, but I'm not sure there's much left of Gaza at this point...Gaza was not really a historical precedent...Gaza is waterfront property, it could be very valuable."

We. Warned. You.
