Senator-elect El Sayed invoked JFK’s faith to compare his election to that of the first Catholic president. JFK ran on policy and took questions on religion. Abdul did the opposite.

Tomorrow, President Trump is meeting with the Prime Minister of Qatar in the Oval Office at 12 pm. The meeting is closed to the press. On Tuesday, Qatari media was celebrating the election of Muslim Brotherhood mouthpiece Abdul El-Sayed.

Trump tells the press a lot of people didn’t like JD Vance’s comments. I look forward to Trump completely turning on our shameful vice president, as he did to him. Trump is a very patient man who plans his moves meticulously. I expect a full scale Art of War operation against Vance before 2028.

I look forward to JD’s statement saying what the president said he should have said: It was the right thing to do and I’d do it again.
YIKES to all those on the GOP side living in this fantasy world where JD Vance was backstabbing the president. Flagging this for you @marcthiessen @marklevinshow @sheilanazarian!!

Many (including the below Vance mouthpiece) are reading Trump’s comments tonight as an endorsement of Vance’s narrative blaming Israel for the Iran war and the midterm losses. But Trump actually undercuts Vance’s entire premise. He says he’d fight the war again—and expects Vance to say the same. You can’t simultaneously argue that Israel dragged America into an unjust war and insist that fighting it was the right decision. Trump may be trying to avoid a public rift with Vance, inexplicably echoing his rhetoric. But on substance, he’s contradicting him, not endorsing him.
A lot of people are hellbent on creating division where it doesn't exist, but the fact is there is ZERO DAYLIGHT between @POTUS and @VP on Iran — as @POTUS has repeatedly stated. @POTUS (TODAY): "A lot of people didn't like his comments, but not me. He was right." 1/

Just imagine the (righteous) outrage if a cop told black patrons “this is a private business, so it can ban you because of your race.” We have public accommodation laws. It’s illegal for cops to enforce illegal discrimination. That’s a federal crime.

Yah it’s a paid campaign. All because I won’t kiss the ring ahead of 2028 and I won’t pick up the banner for Gaza, Iran, and I won’t turn on President Trump. I won’t support the Woke Reich coup of the President so the powers that be have decided they need to neutralize me or incite someone to assassinate me because I’m a threat. Too bad they can’t break my spirit or my loyalty. I’ve been doing this a long time. Mean words don’t hurt me.
The coordinated attack on Laura is once again a very enlightening moment for me in the never-ending changing landscape of the narrative shapers and their ultimate goals for the Republican party.

The pollster Vance referred to as "smartest data guy I know" in his now famous election 'analysis' was Groyper, Mark Mitchell (@honestpollster), who was fired by Rasmussen for his on going attacks on Trump and his anti-Israel stances. Here's a few of Mitchell's recent posts. * In defiance of all internationally agreed upon standards, Mitchell falsely accuses Israel of Genocide. * Blames Israel for the GOP loss, using a graph of the word "noticing" as proof. * Calls for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to be arrested.

A group of "pro-Palestine" thugs engaged in an antisemitic campaign of harassment, death threats, vandalism, intimidation against University of Michigan trustees. El Sayed's ally on the Michigan board defended the thugs, and El Sayed himself stated that they were only prosecuted because of their political beliefs. That's not "Israel", that's the safety of Jews and others from his antisemtic supporters. Why doesn't someone ask him some tough questions about whether people who break the law should be prosecuted when they purportedly do so because of hostility to Israel?
.@AbdulElSayed makes the fundamental point that criticism of Israel's misconduct is not necessarily a swipe at Jews any more than criticism of Egypt's misconduct is is a swipe at Arabs. If you don't care for human rights for all, you don't actually care about human rights at all.

If JD Vance relies on polling to guide his national security decisions related to a potentially nuclear armed Iran, then he is not fit to be the commander in chief That’s not how that job works
🚨 J.D. Vance personally sought polling to bolster his opposition to war with Iran, according to The Wall Street Journal. Earlier this year, he contacted Mark Mitchell, then Rasmussen Reports’ polling chief, to request questions about a potential conflict. The results reinforced his belief that Americans would be skeptical of military action. His efforts to persuade Trump to avoid war failed. Credit @natalieandrews

If you don’t agree with everything JD Vance says, you can probably expect @alexbruesewitz to run to the media about you to smear you with lies. I have been very supportive of the Trump administration and because I don’t agree with JD’s assessment of the Iran war, because I don’t believe in negotiating with terrorists, Alex says I am “viciously attacking the VP” and his allies. Alex will say he doesn’t work for JD Vance but he told me himself he works for 1789 Capital as an advisor to Omeed Malik. So sure, Alex can say he doesn’t work for JD, but he works for the people who will probably be funding JD’s Presidential campaign. I will keep this hit piece that Alex now pretends he had nothing to do with in mind for the future. @drewharwell told me on the phone that Alex was his “source” for his hit piece on me that was full of Hersey and hypocrisy since Alex is attacking me for work he asked me to do over a year ago. When I asked Alex if he planted a hit piece on me, his immediate reaction was accusing me of attacking JD, all because I don’t believe you can negotiate with Islamic terrorists and the MOU was always destined to fail. The negotiations failed. Alex can talk to as many reporters as he wants in an effort to smear me. It doesn’t erase the failure of the negotiations. It doesn’t erase the stench of a lot of things, including Alex.

JD Vance’s Iran pollster thinks that if you defend Charlie Kirk’s widow from public slander and torture, that makes you a “neocon” and a “leftist.”

Judging from Secretary Rubio’s remarks no. This is likely another Qatari attempt to plead for more time, promising progress is just around the corner when it’s not.
Trump meeting Qatar PM in the Oval Office tomorrow, per White House. Movement on Iran?

Pakistan ($200B+) has received more foreign aid than Israel has over its history. Yet no "I'm a proud American, we need to stop funding Israel!" account criticizes that. Ask yourself why.
