One of the funniest stories of the Trump presidency is him allegedly just on an offhand comment offering it up to the King of Jordan (like it was his to give away) and having the king visibly recoil and try to end the meeting ASAP before he somehow was given control of something he wanted no part of.

Protestors were stupid to be wearing those masks, under Georgia law it is a misdemeanor to be on public or third-party property without permission while concealing your face. It immediately allows Georgia police to begin arresting them.

Can we all please make a point of never again believing RWers or self-identified liberals who are really just reactionary centrists (always looking to find the midpoint of any argument, no matter the arguments being made) when they speak of the supposed societal danger of policing campus speech (at least of those of you who believed them in the first place)

Blinken: Offer for a Cease Fire Deal to Hamas extraordinary generous. They must decide very fast, he said.
Meanwhile, Hamas in Egypt says that they have no great problems with this latest offer of a Cease Fire Deal.
Hamas claims they will give their answer soon.
However, meanwhile, IDF continues its very visible and high profile (leaks, leaks, leaks in all direction, despite Israel having perhaps the best military censorship on planet earth) preparations for operation in Gaza.
