Trump's personal touch — both as a heavy hand and a gentle guide — played a pivotal role at key moments in the development of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal, current and former officials in the United States and other nations told NBC News.

How the Israel-Hamas ceasefire deal came together

President Donald Trump had to maintain the trust of Israel and a series of Arab- and Muslim-majority nations. His ability to walk that tightrope was tested repeatedly.

So we still are just gonna let Trump run the country into the ground, strip the pockets of its citizens, and allow the Qatari Air Force in? All while invading American cities, kidnapping citizens, and shutting down the government?

We’re just gonna ride til the wheels fall off huh?

So they’re keeping the House in recess for another week (see his follow up)?

To delay the Epstein Files and, I guess, avoid the No Kings rally on 10/18?

They are in full blown pants pissing panic

Alberta's premier has opened the door in her party and province to separatists. Now, she's claiming that other people are the ones threatening Canada's future.

Even the CBC is onto this bullshit ANTIFA bullshit.
"Antifa is a global, decentralized, leaderless movement that considers its mission to protect society from neo-Nazis and white supremacists."
I'm curious as to how they got the information of their mission.
Who told you that?
