Witkoff Advised Russia on How to Pitch Ukraine Plan to Trump
US presidential envoy Steve Witkoff, fresh from the triumph of the Gaza peace deal, held a phone call last month with a senior Kremlin official to suggest they work together on a similar plan for Ukraine — and that Vladimir Putin should raise it with Donald Trump.

its moments like this, where you can tell who hates Trump with everything in their heart and soul, and who really wishes they could trick Orange Daddy around to being on their side tee-hee-hee wouldn't that be great.

I don't want Trump to do anything, I want him in prison.

A COUPLE OF EMAILS IS NOT A WHOLE NEWS STORY SAYS A FORMER NYT REPORTER

I CANNOT RIGHT NOW MAN, I AM CRASHING THE FUCK OUT. LOOK AT HOW STUPID THESE ASSHOLES THINK YOU ARE! THEY THINK WE ARE ALL TROGLODYTES!
The emails that you’re seeing now are news in themselves, but that’s because of how they’re coming out—a congressional committee released them—& the context in which they’re being viewed. A guy emailing a reporter talking about old girlfriends or saying someone is “dirty” is not a whole news story.

I'm so fucking sick of everyone tangentially related to the NYT always responding to every obvious fuckup with main-character huffiness about how everything they ever did was 100% principled despite constant overwhelming evidence to the contrary! I shouldn't have to know any of your names!

People on the left just desperately want to believe Trump support isn't sincere/only motivated because Feckless Dems aren't saying the right thing at any given moment. If Dems are talking about it, it *must* be the wrong approach to take, no matter what it is.
Okay, look, I gotta ask because I feel like I’m having a stroke. Did we switch teams on the democracy versus economics messaging? Because the way I remember it, the libs ran on democracy and the left said they should focus on material issues like healthcare instead and now it’s opposite, I think?

The shitlibs were right about all of the 2016 Left's heroes, and no one from the 2016 Left has ever had a single moment of introspection about it
Glenn Greenwald says Nick Fuentes' authenticity makes it easy for critics to "demonize and attack you by taking these quotes that can sound not just very racist, but very almost Nazi-like and kind of an extermination rhetoric." Um, yea. People who use Nazi-like rhetoric tend to get labeled a Nazi.

When Trump said "Russia, are you listening," he may have known for a fact that they were, not because Russia told him, but because Israel was spying on Russia and feeding the info to Trump.
The Trump Campaign's Collusion With Israel
While US media fixated on Russian interference in the 2016 election, an Israeli secret agent's campaign to influence the outcome went unreported.

Let me be clear: not just because of the nauseating hagiography, but also because of the underreporting of what happened at that Hyundai plant.

The back-to-back of that is enraging.

The media really showed how corrupt and rotten it's become.

I don't want to overegg it, but I am already seeing some "Mamdani is a sellout" allegations from leftists allergic to success.

Just like with AOC, these people want a performance of pure and noble martyrdom.

the NYC mayoral election might be an opportunity to reset some terms.

the Cuomo faction are not “liberals” but “centrists”.

the Lander faction are “liberals”

the Mamdani faction are “leftists”

if you’re mad at centrists but complaining about liberals you are mostly pissing on the wrong people
