Should anyone be suprised?

I'm gonna need more than somebody's social media post on this.

Edit: Because right now it's "somebody's" social media post with an unsourced and undated quote from "someone" referring to "reporting," with a picture of a lady that has a PBS/NewsHour watermark. This is exactly the kind of thing you should be skeptical of in the absence of better confirmation, all up and down that ladder of vagueness.

So like the alleged deal between the Reagan campaign and Iran during the hostage crisis to get elected and oust Carter?

It is crazy to me that all of the "Genocide Joe" crowd don't see that Netanyahu wants Trump to win so he can show the world what genocide actually looks like.

Well, not that crazy, considering a good portion of them are propagandists.

Isn't him doing that illegal? Like very illegal?

Trump literally is just Nixon.

Straight out of the Republican play book.

It's posts like this that always oddly have 0 tankie comments lamenting about genocide Joe. Weird how that is, it's like they avoid all articles that disprove their entire worldview. Crazy.

Just when you think he couldn't be any more cartoonishly evil.

"Oh waiter, more genocide please"

Something, something, Iran Hostage Crisis, something, something, more bullshit from the Reagan playbook

To all the "Harris and Trump are the same crowd, stop being so cowardly and try to say that shit here and now. Or don't, and confirm that this whole time you were being wilfully ignorant because you enjoy purity politics nonsense.

Oh I'm just sure that Linkerbaan is reposting this as we speak. Since he totally wasn't lying about Trump supposedly trying to negotiate a ceasefire lol

Doesn't that violate some US law? He is not authorized to negotiate with a foreign power. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logan_Act

The only reason I could believe it, is that it's happened before. See: Reagan and the Iran hostages.

Still, I'm going to need a better source. This seems uncharacteristically competent.

If that's true, it's absolutely abominable.

We don't want boarders though. They will just kill us all and take our ship.

Oh hey the traitorous traitor is doing traitor things.

I don't want an end to killing because the killing helps me.

It’s Iran-Contra all over again.

Ooof. If true he probably just handed Harris Michigan.

Gonna need more proof though.

Wow. What Dick move

the same Trump that killed boarder legislation

You're giving Trump way too much credit. Republicans couldn't pass a border bill under Bush Jr, when they had all three branches of government firmly in hand and "Protecting the Border" was a major campaign issue. A big chunk of the GOP wants to literally do a holocaust followed by a massive land grab along the US/Mexico border. Any legislation that doesn't grant this is DOA in the Republican-controlled House.

Trump got to be the face of why it failed this time. But it was Duncan Hunter and Tom Tancredo back in 2006. And it was Cornyn, McCain, and Graham who killed it in 2011. Then Republicans killed their own Border Security and Immigration Reform Act of 2018, back when it might have helped Trump.

Its so fucking easy to kill immigration bills in Congress. Nobody likes voting for them. Anything that can even be hinted at increasing the amount of legal immigration is a poisoned pill. They always fail.

Bibi: give us some MOABS and permission to build beachfront properties and you very got s deal.

People will keep dying, but that's okay.

Apparently she retracted her comments https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/22/world/middleeast/trump-netanyahu-cease-fire-talks-israel-woodruff-pbs.html

??? How can he do that? Isn't that illegal? Or treason? Or both?

Also, Jesus, he just keeps getting worse. "No, no, keep killing people. I have an election coming up." - "Totally not the bad guy" Trump
