Translation: Trump already agreed to sell out Ukraine in a private meeting with Putin in Alaska.
Russia won’t make any concessions in a so-called peace deal.
Deputy FM Ryabkov claims that all possible concessions were already made by Putin “in Anchorage, Alaska.” Everything else is off the table, they won’t discuss it publicly and will continue pushing to achieve all declared goals.

Just imagining the response if without any legal authorization whatsoever the black president took a bulldozer to half the white house & then insisted he alone would design the monstrosity emerging from that rubble.
Exclusive: President Trump has argued with the architect he handpicked to design a White House ballroom over the size of the project, reflecting a conflict between architectural norms and Trump’s grandiose aesthetic.
Trump wants a bigger White House ballroom. His architect disagrees.
The president and James McCrery had argued in recent weeks over the project’s size, with Trump pushing him to expand the ballroom.

DT Jr is just upset many Republicans are angry over this deal and clear it’s not so much a peace plan as a capitulation. Witcoff is selling the Russian narrative. He is helping our foe, not our friend.

They are aware that Russians quite literally wrote the capitulation document that some people in the White House and sadly many people in the media refer to as a peace plan.
Congressional Republicans including Senator Mitch McConnell are openly blasting President Trump’s team of appeasing Russia, warning that doing so would not lead to lasting peace.

So Noem is relying on advice of counsel. Great. Boasberg can now bring in DHS & DOJ counsel & find out if they really did advise her to tell Boasberg to FO — or, if it was Miller or Corey (or the puppy killer herself). Divide & conquer.
The first official confirmation that Noem herself made the decision not to turn the planes around. A couple hundred men were tortured as a result — and soon after, the Supreme Court confirmed that the Trump admin’s Alien Enemies Act process was a total violation of due process.
BREAKING:
“After receiving that legal advice, Secretary Noem directed that the AEA detainees who had been removed from the United States before the Court’s order could be transferred to the custody of El Salvador. “

Bolsonaro will have 27 years to think about how he would have gotten away if it wasn’t for the dotard. 🤠
Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.
And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.
