Asked by a reporter if he was “surprised” by the Supreme Court’s tariff ruling, President Donald Trump answered in the affirmative.: “I was surprised because I thought that what we did was … I mean, I read the paragraphs. I read very well. Great comprehension. I read everything there is to read and I said, ‘We can’t lose this case.’”
Bo French, Republican Party chair of Tarrant County, Texas, aims to “stop the Islamic invasion” by quitting his job to run for the state’s Railroad Commission.: “Today I resigned as TCGOP Chairman, and am running for the Texas Railroad Commission, which regulates the Texas oil and gas industry. This will be the best way that I can defend Texas, stop the Islamic invasion, and defeat the left. With Iran and radical Islamists attacking our allies in the Middle East, the Chinese Communist Party pushing its agenda worldwide, and the radical Green New Scam artists waging war on domestic energy production, our state needs a strong leader who will fight back. I’m running for Railroad Commissioner to put American citizens, American interests, and American energy first.” …In a call for donations, French said that “our birthright is being taken from us.” [Note: Commission Chair Jim Wright will face off against French in the Republican primary. The winner is likely to defeat Houston state Rep. Jon Rosenthal (D) in the general election since no Democrat has won a statewide office in Texas since 1994.]
Bill White, the US ambassador to Belgium, criticized the country for its approach to Jewish ritual circumcision and accused the country of antisemitism.: “TO BELGIUM, SPECIFICALLY YOU MUST DROP THE RIDICULOUS AND ANTI SEMITIC ‘PROSECUTION’ NOW OF THE 3 JEWISH RELIGIOUS FIGURES (MOHELS) IN ANTWERP! THEY ARE DOING WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO DO FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS.” [Note: Three Jewish men who perform ritual circumcision – known as “mohels” – are under judicial investigation after they allegedly carried out procedures without doctors present. Maxime Prévot, Belgium’s foreign minister clarified that Belgium permits ritual circumcision “when performed by a qualified physician under strict health and safety standards.”]
Tucker Carlson interviewing the US ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee… Carlson asked about his understanding of a biblical verse suggesting that land including parts of Egypt, Syria and Iraq had been divinely promised to the Jewish people.
Carlson said that according to the Old Testament, the boundaries would be “basically the entire Middle East.”
Carlson: “Does Israel have the right to that land?”
Huckabee: “Not sure we’d go that far. It would be a big piece of land.”
Carlson: “Does Israel have the right to that land?”
Huckabee: “It would be fine if they took it all. I don’t think that’s what we’re talking about here today.”
Carlson: “You think it would be fine if the state of Israel took over all of Jordan?”
Huckabee: “They’re not trying to take over Jordan. They’re not trying to take over Syria. They’re not trying to take over Iraq or anywhere else, but they do want to protect their people. I think you’re missing something because they’re not asking to go back to take all of that, but they are asking to at least take the land that they now occupy, they now live in, they now own legitimately, and it is a safe haven for them.”
Trump, who is said to have claimed that Brady asked him for Ivanka’s phone number, was speaking about the star NFL quarterback’s football ability when ‘his riff took a strange turn’, Newsom remembers in his book, Young Man in a Hurry: A Memoir of Discovery.
‘He recounted that when Brady was single, the two of them were at a function and Brady expressed an interest in dating his daughter Ivanka,’ Newsom continued. 'The quarterback asked for her number, and Trump gave it to him. Brady called Ivanka and left a message, but she never called him back.
'Soon after, Brady related the snub to Trump, who then called his daughter, wondering what was up.
Trump providing example of his actions.:“I have a policeman, I tell the story, same guy I meet him but I… It’s this wonderful tough policeman from New York. He’s taking good care of us, and he said ‘Sir It’s so good my married life has gotten so much better’. Why? My wife thought I was a loser financially I couldn’t make any money because my 401k was dying for years and now she thinks I’m the smartest financial genius ever.” “It’s made my sex life good. It’s made my life good… It’s given me… It’s given me a tremendous boost in life, sir. This is a big tough cop. He said my wife treated me like a dog and now she admires my financial genius. And I haven’t done anything! My 401k has gone through the roof. So I said, thank you very much,”
Country singer Alexis Wilkins briefly answered a question about her boyfriend Kash Patel’s controversial visit to the Winter Olympics. Kash Patel, FBI director, was scrutinized for attending multiple hockey games and partying with the U.S. men’s team in the locker room during an official visit to Italy, purportedly to focus on security issues.: “So I really am not going to dip too much into this, because this is kind of my whole point. But what I will say is the bureau has long been in charge of providing security for the Olympics, and that’s what was happening. So, I think that we should be probably more concerned with the fact that, you know, the Democrats were trying to spend millions of dollars to see if mice can be transgender. And the fact that that has stopped, you know, I think that people run things in the media in order to cause an outrage. And I’ve never seen so many conservatives fall victim to the fake news. President Trump still calls the fake news ‘fake news’ ― and that’s how we know they’re the fake news.”
Trump talking about his Board of Peace.: “We’re going to be very successful in Gaza. It’s going to be a good thing to watch. And we can do other things. We can do numerous other things once this board is completely formed, we can pretty much whatever we want to do.”
Seems comments about drapes is one of the most honest moments hearing from Trump. He is simply saying he really cares about drapes and the ballroom….Iran? he will talk more about that later. Only after all the bombs quit falling he will start making up the very long list of stuff about what he accomplished which no other president could do…e.g. peace all over the world.
Regarding who will run Iran.:“I guess the worst case would be we do this and somebody takes over who’s as bad as the previous person. Right, that could happen? We don’t want that to happen. It would probably be the worst, you go through this, and then in five years you realize you put somebody in who’s no better. Most of the people we had in mind are dead. Now we have another group. They may be dead also, based on reports. So I guess you have a third wave coming. Pretty soon we’re not going to know anybody.”
Regarding why attacked: “We were having negotiations with these lunatics, and it was my opinion that they were going to attack. (when asked if his hand had been forced by Israel.) “If anything. I might have forced Israel’s hand.”
Regarding oil prices: “So, if we have a little high oil prices for a little while, as soon as this ends, those prices are going to drop. If necessary, the United States Navy will begin escorting tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, as soon as possible. No matter what, the United States will ensure the FREE FLOW of ENERGY to the WORLD.”
RFK Jr: "President Trump understands that we're engaged right now in spiritual warfare and that the malevolent forces want to drive us apart and end our connection to each other. One of the ways we can remedy that is by reinstituting this sacred ritual of eating with each other and cooking."
