🚨🇦🇪🇺🇸 Prominent UAE billionaire Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor just published an open letter to Trump. It's brutal.

"Who gave you the authority to drag our region into a war with Iran? Who gave you permission to turn our region into a battlefield?"

Al Habtoor's a major figure: billionaire, former diplomat, outspoken political voice in the Gulf. When he talks, UAE leadership's listening.

His questions:

* Was this your decision or Netanyahu's pressure?
* Did you calculate collateral damage before firing?
* You placed GCC countries at the heart of danger they didn't choose
* Your "Board of Peace" initiatives were funded by Gulf states. Now we're getting attacked. Where did that money go?
* You promised no wars. You've conducted operations in 7 countries: Somalia, Iraq, Yemen, Nigeria, Syria, Iran, Venezuela
* 658 airstrikes in your first year back = Biden's entire term (which you criticized)
* War costs $40-65 billion for operations, possibly $210 billion total
* Your approval rating's down 9% in 400 days
* Americans were promised peace. They're getting war funded by their taxes

The sharpest line: "Before the ink has dried on your Board of Peace initiative, we find ourselves facing military escalation that endangers the entire region. So where did those initiatives go?"

Al Habtoor's not some random critic. He's establishment. Connected. When UAE elites start publicly questioning Trump's decision-making, that's America's closest Arab allies saying "we didn't sign up for this."

The letter ends: "True leadership is not measured by war decisions, but by wisdom, respect for others, and pushing toward achieving peace."

@JaredEMoskowitz Replacing her with Mullin though? We thought FEMA was screwed before…. This man can even tie his own shoes. And he doesn’t have a Corey to do all the work!

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

@RonDeSantis If you are saying God is a man that is blasphemy. God is neither male nor female or anything humans can comprehend.

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

He’s right. The midterms are too far away. Anything could happen by then.

[Paul Rieckhoff🇺🇸🇺🇦 @PaulRieckhoff]

I just got off the air at MSNow for @11thHour. And that was weird.

I’m not sure what it looked like in the broadcast, but it was definitely unexpected for me and all of us in studio. But also important. As I was talking, it sounded like we got shut down or shut off. 📺🚨🇺🇸

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

@IfindBullshit Yes. I just read it and reposted it. Basically Nancy was showboating as usual.

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

It IS Epstein island

[Darth Powell @VladTheInflator]

HOLY FUCK it wasn't even close.

I'm going to tell my kids this is Epstein Island

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

It makes sense. It was showboating for Nancy.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The idea is good but the text itself was rushed and not thought through. It violated a lot of standard practices to protect survivors and due process:

1. It also released documents related to allegations found to be false or unsubstantiated, not just verified violations or settlements. So innocent people would get lumped in with violators.

2. To our knowledge, there was zero victim consent or consultation on this text. That is very different than with Epstein, where victims are centered and consulted at every step. Here, victims offered all their statements with the promise of protection and anonymity. The text gave them no way to have a voice in what information of theirs or their accounts they wanted public or keep private. That is important because…

3. Although there was a throwaway line about redacting victim names, I do believe full witness or victim statements would have been released. With the way employment at the House works (offices are small, time periods of staff employment are publicly disclosed, etc) it means that even with names redacted you can definitely track details in witness statements and use that to ID victims without their consent. And there was zero mechanism for victims themselves to assert their privacy.

Originally we were supposed to debate the details of the text over two days but for some reason they rushed the vote so we couldn’t iron out any of these details to get this information properly disclosed in a way that guarantees victim safety.

If the text was clean I think you’d get a lot more support. As a survivor, I know why the vast majority of women never report at all and a lot of those reasons, even if unintentionally or inadvertently, were included here. For me at least, guaranteeing the safety and agency of victims and survivors would get me to a YES.

This is on point.

[Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸 @jimstewartson]

The psychological backdrop here is the worst case scenario.

Trump is rapidly declining due to dementia AND he is a malignant narcissist in full collapse over Epstein. He’s reached the stage where destruction of the world is better than suffering further ego-injury—and he’s lost the physical machinery to use his frontal lobe to regulate his emotional decisions.

Our collective ignorance about his pathologies—in large part due to smears on professionals like Bandy Lee who warned us about this a decade ago—has left us well and truly fucked.

Today, in his one appearance, Trump was apathetic, mumbling, slurry, and totally disinhibited. He has every symptom of either Alzheimer’s or FTD. The decline is real. The trajectory is in one inevitable, accelerating direction.

“I have to go back and look at the war” is exactly how he thinks of it. For him, war has always been something to look at. War is just another TV show where the poors entertain the elites. Captain Bone Spurs learned that 60 years ago.

Psychologically, Trump went to war because it gave him an escape from the prison of his own shame—because he’s now in control. Even if his arson burns down the whole world, at least he will be the one to have done it.

The situation has reached a critical point because it is increasingly hard for him to back out, both mentally and logistically. The entire region is aflame. He can’t undo what he’s done.

Without intervention, Trump’s going to do to Tehran what Netanyahu did to Gaza, not because of a nuclear program, but because Trump needs a grandiose gesture to restore his grandiose self-image. TACO is not an option for him here.

But Iran is not Venezuela. It’s not going to go quietly. While it has been led by an odious, theocratic, terrorist regime for 47 years, we’re still talking about Persia—which has been there for five millennia. It’s not going to turn into a puppet state to Trump.

Trump has no idea what he’s done, or who he’s dealing with. And neither does anyone around him. All they know is they have to WIN, even though they can’t define what that actually means.

It’s going to take something way outside the box to escape a historic calamity here. He’s already covering up the murder of hundreds of kids—and demanding that the press stop covering the death of American soldiers so much.

I’m trying to find a silver lining or something to hang hope on, but I just don’t see how we get out of this one. Trump is a bad man, surrounded by bad people, determined to do bad things.

How very interesting!

BREAKING NEWS:

Timothy Parsons, a long time employee of the U.S. Department of Justice, has been arrested and charged in a child pornography case.

The people who are supposed to be prosecuting the pedophiles are the pedophiles. This is America.

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

@PaulRieckhoff @BillieO2 It’s hard to read. Who wrote that??

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

@RoKhanna @RepNancyMace Apparently it was hard.
We need to get all those members out of Congress and start over. If they voted against this, they are compromised. There are even a couple I really like who voted against it. Makes me sad, but I’ve already decided they can move on.

Less than a month after being elected, Tim Sheehy traveled to Israel record an ad for AIPAC

He just broke Brian McGinnis' arm for saying "Nobody wants to fight for Israel."

@grok @ItsTheEnforcer So he doesn’t want to be fact checked. 🤣

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

@Memow2020 Right! But someone will. But their religion assassination during war is an honorable death.

[Gotochelle 🇺🇸 @gotochelle]

From the looks of it, if Iran was a threat, they could have taken out Israel at any point they wanted to. This is a poop show of epic proportions.
And no one forgot the Epstein files.
