I think Biden actually did as good as he could have done with Israel situation. He was boxed in with anti-semitism from the far left and wanting to appeal to that group during an election year.
I've started going to Breaking Points for my political commentary and they spent an hour on this yesterday. Both Krystal and Saggar pretty much agreed that he didn't do jack. All it took was literally a president elect to say STOP and here we are.
Oh my, fall down and worship the orange god
Keep it up and perhaps you can be part of the cabinet.
It's always a little column A and a little column B. I don't think you can ignore the months of talks that it took to get here or the Trump team's involvement. Both contributed. Both will blame the other side and take credit. Ultimately it was up to the people on the ground and leaders of Israel and Hamas.
While I agree, the timing isn't coincidence.
I’d like to hear which unofficial Trump team members played such an important role in this negotiations and give them all due respect for working tirelessly, without pay or official title, throughout the Biden administration process. Please enlighten me.

Maybe you should ask Biden. He was the one that revealed that the Trump team was involved in the negotiations.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden said on Wednesday that Israel and Hamas have reached a ceasefire-and-hostage deal that will end fighting in Gaza, and added it was reached by working alongside the incoming Donald Trump administration.
No doubt Trump Magic.
When it comes to overseas negotiations that’s what Presidents traditionally do

Saager Enjeti is a good follow on Twitter. Many times I disagree with him, but he is one of the few that is willing to call out politicians no matter their political party. I agree Saager and Krystal’s show is good and they provide each other a fairly balanced view point.

Speaker Johnson removes Mike Turner as Intelligence Committee chair the hill
...
One Republican lawmaker told The Hill the decision was made after complaints from Freedom Caucus members.
...
One Republican lawmaker familiar with the situation said the MAGA wing of the party revolted over keeping Turner in the post.
“What I know is that Mar-a-Lago vetoed Turner,” the lawmaker said.
“They vetoed him, and Johnson couldn’t resist doing it, and so he got sandbagged because Trump wanted that to happen.”
The lawmaker noted the move came shortly after an article in Tablet Magazine noting complaints about Turner’s influence as his deputy pushed to move to the National Security Council.
“All these people, Freedom Caucus people, went after Turner, got to Trump and told him, ‘You got to tell Johnson to sandbag him.’”
...
Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.), the top Democrat on the panel, condemned Turner’s removal.
“Mike Turner is a serious, security focused lawmaker dedicated at his core to the national security of the United States and to the thoughtful oversight of the Intelligence Community,” Himes said in a statement.
“The removal of Chairman Turner makes our nation less secure and is a terrible portent for what’s to come. The Constitution demands that Congress function as a check and balance to the Executive Branch, not cater to its demands.”
CBS News’s Margaret Brennan reported Turner told her Johnson fired him after citing “concerns from Mar-a-Lago.”

I hope this passes. Overseas taxation is absurd.

A prominent House Republican has filed a bill to meet Donald Trump's call to end income tax for Americans who live abroad.
Proposed legislation by Illinois Republican Rep. Darin LaHood would allow expatriate Americans to pay taxes in the country where they live, without having to file tax returns in the U.S.
Trump pitched the idea in October while appealing for the votes of Americans living overseas.
'You have to make sure that you are registered and you are going to vote because I’m going to take very good care of you,' Trump pledged in a video posted by a group called Republicans Overseas.
'Once and for all, I’m going to end double taxation on our overseas citizens. You’ve been wanting this for years, and nobody has listened to you. And you deserve it. And I’m going to do it,' he said.
'It's the right thing to do and no American leader has ever been able to,' said Trump.
'I'm going to get this done for you – it's a big one,' Trump said.

Lol. Enter the worst troll video ever.
I've noticed that reality TV can be divided into two groups: trashy people without money and trashy people with money. We're about to be ruled by the latter.
Raise your hand if you had to Google "what is an oligarchy" recently
I know they are kinda joking in this video....but then again.. they may be kind of serious??? Which is weird.
