QATAR’S $400B INFLUENCE MACHINE: THE RECEIPTS ARE HERE
@FDD just blew the lid off of the same funding source behind Hamas, Qatar, who has poured $400B into influence operations in the United States. That's right, US officials and Hamas have the same employer.
The only thing shocking is the scale — and the number of officials, institutions, and power brokers who appear to be on the receiving end.
No wonder the “genocide” narrative took hold.
It is one of the fruits of Qatari investment.

Watching the Democratic Party support Platner in Maine, just shows where the party is really at. These candidates are no longer the fringe of the party - they are the party.
Speaking from @CENTCOM just now, @SecWar said President Trump will be striking Iran hard tonight, and will do it again tomorrow if Iran refuses to make a deal.
“The United States controls the Strait of Hormuz,” he said.
Will President Trump’s decision to hold back Prime Minister Netanyahu hurt Netanyahu politically as Israel heads toward an election later this year?
I discussed this and more with @KatiePavlich on @KatiePavlichNN this week.
INDICTMENT: Department of Justice indicts eight conspirators who threatened University of Michigan officials, businesses, and the Jewish Federation.
According to the indictment, after the October 7, 2023 Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel, the defendants and unindicted conspirators enacted a series of coordinated “actions” threatening University of Michigan leaders, law enforcement, and businesses. Seemingly prompted by their perception of the University of Michigan’s and other victims’ purported financial support of Israel, the conspirators insisted publicly that they “must escalate, mobilize, and organize to demand divestment by any means necessary.”

BREAKING: President Trump exclusively tells @TreyYingst that the U.S. is getting close to ordering new strikes against Iranian power plants and bridges in response to “tapping the United States along” when it comes to drawn out negotiations.
The U.S. launched overnight strikes against Iranian-linked targets after a U.S. Apache helicopter was downed near the Strait of Hormuz, hitting roughly 20 sites.
Trump also revealing new details about the helicopter incident - saying an Iranian drone became lodged between the helicopter's two pilots as they maneuvered to avoid an explosion.
Gabe Groisman: Iran may be making a dangerous mistake.They may think they can drag Trump through endless conditions and delays. But Trump is not Biden. He is not Obama.

Why are so many Jews still voting Democrat after October 7?
I asked that question to @GabeGroisman. His answer may surprise you.

🇺🇸🇸🇦President Trump told leaders of Arab and Muslim countries during a Saturday conference call that if a deal to end the Iran war is achieved he wants their nations to join the Abraham Accords and sign peace agreements with Israel. My story on @axios

🚨After receiving a briefing from a Senior TRUMP Administration Official on the status of the Iran negotiations (someone in the know & not just speculating), I can tell you the following:
-USA IS NOT GIVING IRANIANS MONEY FOR NOTHING. All speculation and propaganda to the contrary is false. Some hardline elements of Iran’s govt (IRGC) have pushed fake stories & propaganda to try to kill this negotiation.
-Iran deal is NOT done (95%, but still haggling over some language). No deal being signed today. May be a few more days before this is done.
-Iran will NOT get any money or sanctions relief up front.
-Iran must turn over nuclear stockpile to get anything. USA position is that failure to meet deal commitments means Iran gets nothing.
-Long term USA objective is preventing Iran from having nuclear weapon.
-Initial deal point is to re-establish free flow of commerce by reopening Strait of Hormuz.
Deal should have 2 phases:
Step 1 - Open Strait of Hormuz. Give world economy breathing room. Iran agrees to give up enriched uranium.
Step 2 - Get the nuclear material turned over. Only then can Iran get sanctions relief.
Bottom line: goal is to make a deal that lowers costs for Americans, calms world energy markets, and guarantees that Iranians cannot have a nuclear weapon over the long term. We aren’t there yet. Iran takes forever to get you a response on even small things. But we are close although it still could be a few days.
“If we get what we are demanding, this is going to be a historic deal,” SAO says.
SAO sounds prepared to do no deal at all if all Iran will do is a “bad deal.” SAO admits deal could fall apart yet. But if a deal is reached, SAO expects very senior USA admin officials to take part in a signing ceremony of some sort.
Iran has agreed in principle to the framework but there are still a couple points USA isn’t satisfied with. 95% done. But literally changing words sometimes requires days in Iran’s system. Haggling over language. But USA feels like we have a commitment on nuclear stockpile and on opening Strait of Hormuz.
If IRAN doesn’t deliver on commitments, they get nothing.
“Iran’s ability to project power is a lot more limited than it was two months ago,” SAO says. “Their industrial base for building ballistic missiles has been substantially destroyed.”
Today feels like a holiday in South Florida as we celebrate the indictment of Raul Castro. We hope this is the beginning of the end of this disastrous oppressive regime, I tell @Erin_Molan on her show today.
TX-35 Democratic candidate Maureen Galindo says she will convert ICE detention center in Karnes County into an internment camp for "American Zionists."
"It will also be a castration processing center for pedophiles, which will probably be most of the Zionists," she added.
