I am very proud to announce that Israel and Hamas have both signed off on the first Phase of our Peace Plan. This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace. All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen. BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
Why would anyone downvote this? You don't want a historic peace deal in the Middle East? Sleepy Joe completely failed - like usual - and Trump is here to save the day.
I can’t believe this would be downvoted. I’m Palestinian FFS, and I’m happy about this deal. The Israeli hostages and their families are happy about it. Netanyahu is happy about it, Trump is, so are Qatar, Turkey, Egypt and Hamas. Gaza will be governed by an apolitical Arab govt, Hamas won’t have a political role and have lost all legitimacy (or soon will) and we can start rebuilding. WT actual F is wrong with people??
Remember that bizarre truth social post that Trump made that sounded like a direct message to Pam Bondi to indict a bunch of people?
Remember how some MAGA thought it was 3D chess?
Nope. The WSJ reports it was indeed supposed to be a DM but Trump accidentally sent it to the entire freekin world.
So now Comey and anyone else indicted down the road have slam dunk proof of vindictive prosecution

Bondi called him the most transparent president in history yesterday. But she didn’t specify that that stems from both his intentional (if oblivious) transparency, AND his simple stupidity.
One more quick thought about a small number of Rs growing a spine: January is getting to be a while ago. In that time, has a single GOP Senator shown significant spine? A very few comments here and there. But nothing NEAR commensurate with his actions and the threat. I’d LOVE to think it’s coming, but have essentially zero reason to believe that it is.
While you guys foam at the mouth over nonsense, MAGA has delivered peace in the Middle East. Let that sink in.
You talking about the reral estate deal at the threat of total destruction?

I would love for this to be true. Truly.
But the chances of that are Slim and None. And Slim's leavin' town.

I hope this finally fully resolves it but I doubt it
That being said, with how enthusiastic the Qataris, Egyptian, and others were (and even Iran "blessed it", according to the BBC...) it seems to have a greater chance of working than other previous attempts

Do you think it's better or worse that he always talks like this?
"Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, “same old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam “Shifty” Schiff, Leticia??? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done.” Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That’s why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many lawyers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey Halligan is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT"

How does that even happen? Trump actually types and posts all that raging psycho stuff and send DMs and texts himself? I guess I'm impressed in a way that a 79 year old can use devices, communications, media and the internet that well. But it's still hard to believe he doesn't have an IT assistant doing all the posting and communicating for him. Where is that little shatster Nauta? Why isn't he doing this stuff? Maybe he got demoted after he FVCKED up the bathroom assignment.

So….
Public threat maybe not THAT bad?
But the exact same threat in private definitely bad?
In other words, shouldn’t it be the exact same slam dunk in either case?
(I mean, sure, the unsurprising stupidity of Trump in the one case is great, and all, but…)
An intended private communication like that seems significantly worse. Much harder to explain away as just political theater, joking, rhetoric, etc. and much harder to argue that Trump wasn't issuing improper (illegal?) orders to the DOJ, which is supposed to operate independently from the White House on issues like this.
Major fvck-up by Trump. Comey now has exculpatory evidence that he was going to be very unlikely to get in discovery. No way is Bonda going comply with the law and turn over what must be hundreds of communications from Trump and the White House to DOJ regarding prosecution of those on his revenge list. This one slipped through. Someone pulled a Hegger as they call it now in DC.

Question for you: how is Trump's message to Bondi exculpatory? Comey is charged with lying to Congress. That is either true or it isn't. Trump directing his AG to prosecute doesn't seem to have any bearing on the answer to that question.
And please forgive me for what most surely will come across as "bothsidesism," but to give you a useful counterexample, before she became Attorney General of New York, Leticia James *ran* on a campaign that included indicating Trump for an as-yet-unnamed crime...which, she then did pursue after winning the election.
I'm sure this comes across as jerky, so, to be clear, I don't favor political prosecitions when either side does them. But, they are a fact of life in our current political climate.
I see lefty cable news saying Comey will file a motion to dismiss the case, which he absolutely should. But then the commentators seem to get it wrong by suggesting that this is "selective prosecution." Which it is. But that is also a headscratcher as *all* prosecutions are selective. Prosecutors have discretion in this matter. It is literally part of their job description.
