Let's decode what actually happened here.
Axios reported that Trump exploded at Netanyahu. Called him "fucking crazy." Said "you'd be in prison if it weren't for me." Said "everybody hates you now."
The journalist is Barak Ravid again, we talked about it. Israeli. Based in Washington. Covers the Netanyahu-US relationship for Axios, and every latest deals to calm the markets.
This is the same journalist who wrote the exact same type of story about Biden. There is literally a book chapter about this pattern. It is called "Fuming Biden." The same reporter. The same format. The same function. Different president.
Now watch the response.
Mark Levin, a close ally of both Trump and Netanyahu, did not deny the story. He demanded an FBI investigation into who leaked it. When your defense is "this should never have leaked" instead of "this never happened," you have confirmed the call happened.
But here is the part that matters.
Why would Levin, a friend to BOTH men, confirm the most explosive account of their relationship ever published?
Because it serves both.
Trump gets to look tough. Not Netanyahu's puppet. Willing to put Israel in its place. His base loves it.
Netanyahu gets cover. He "paused" the Beirut strike, but not because Iran threatened him. Because his "friend" asked him to. His base loves it too.
And look at what actually changed on the ground. Nothing.
Israel cancelled the Beirut strike. But the ground invasion of Lebanon continues. The IDF is still miles deep. A soldier died today from a Hezbollah drone. Netanyahu's office said: "position unchanged."
The performance was perfect. Trump gets the headline. Netanyahu gets the cover. The deal gets another 48 hours of "progress." Markets get a reason to breathe.
And the war continues exactly as planned.
This is the same playbook. Every time public opinion turns against the war, a story appears showing the US president is "furious" with Israel. It creates the illusion of restraint while changing nothing.
Biden was "furious" for 14 months. The war never stopped.
Trump is "furious" now. The ground invasion is expanding.
The visible game is: Trump controls Netanyahu.
The real game is: both men are performing for their audiences while the machine moves forward.
Nothing has been signed. Nothing has stopped. The war is not winding down. It is being managed.
Neither one controls the other. They walk arm in arm. Know that.
Bernie Sanders: "Massie was defeated by $9 million from AIPAC and $7 million from Trump mega donors. His great crime? Opposed the war in Iran. Demanded the Epstein files be opened. Refused to be a rubber stamp."
The system isn't broken. It's working exactly as designed. To crush anyone who threatens the donor class. Anyone who puts America before Israel. Anyone who opens files that powerful people want closed
That man is robbing us blind.
It hasn’t even been 2 full years.
By the time his term is finished, the US will have $4, no schools, no healthcare, no water, no clean air, no food, no economy, no chance lmao.
Just police officers, cancer, and AI data centers.
If a Chinese paper wrote a story about how a primary race in Kentucky was the most consequential race for China after pro-China donors poured $35 million in the race
What’s would that mean?
They loved Marjorie Taylor Greene, now they hate her.
They loved Thomas Massie, now they hate him.
They loved Lauren Boebert, now they hate her.
They made fun of Biden for nodding off ("Sleepy Joe), now they ignore Trump outright falling asleep.
They put "I Did That" Biden stickers on high gas prices, now they ignore gas prices being even higher.
They bragged about Trump being the no wars President, now they support war.
They bashed Biden for sending money to Ukraine, now they ignore Trump sending money to both Ukraine and Israel.
They demanded the Epstein files, now they bash anyone asking for the Epstein files.
To be a MAGA is to be a slave.
Not physically, but mentally.
They stand for nothing.
We're up against people who stand for nothing.
And with the most misplaced confidence you've ever seen, they try to tell us whats-what.
We shouldn't even acknowledge these people.
The Trump supporters that remain are mentally too far gone.
I don't even want to argue with them anymore.
They slaughtered everyone in Palestine for real estate. We are dealing with actual demons. Soulless, greedy, despicable monsters who are evil to their core.
Today marks the 78th anniversary of the Nakba (catastrophe), during which more than 750,000 Palestinians were expelled and over 400 villages were destroyed to establish the State of Israel.
The coolest thing about being an American right now is if I pay my taxes I'm not paying for better infrastructure, roads, or social services. I'm paying for some guy across the ocean to shoot a kid in the head with a sniper rifle. Oh, and I'm paying for his health care too.
BOMBSHELL CONFIRMED: The Supreme Court corruption scandal that was lingering from a year ago? We can now call it CONFIRMED today.
Chief Justice John Roberts' wife pocketed $10.3 million recruiting for law firms with cases before his court. He illegally labeled it "salary" instead of commission on disclosure forms.
Justice Clarence Thomas took $500,000+ luxury yacht trips, $133,000 real estate deals, and decades of private jet vacations from billionaire Harlan Crow—all hidden from the public.
Justice Neil Gorsuch sold a $1.8 million property to the CEO of Greenberg Traurig—a law firm with 22 cases before the Court—just nine days after his confirmation. He left the buyer's name BLANK on his disclosure forms.
Republicans: "The Supreme Court is impartial!"
The Supreme Court: a billionaire-funded cash register.
Three justices. Three scandals. Tens of millions in hidden money and favors.
This isn't a court. It's a corruption convention with robes.
Tell me again why we should trust these people with our rights?
Nie uwierzycie. Przed chwilą Ministerstwo Spraw Zagranicznych Izraela i ambasada Izraela w Polsce wystosowały oczekiwanie do polskich władz, by zareagować na moje ostatnie wystąpienie. Zasugerowano, by pozbawić mnie mandatu posła. Rozumiecie? Ministerstwo Spraw Zagranicznych Izraela domaga się, by polskie władze zrobiły coś, bym nie zasiadał w ławach polskiego parlamentu.
To nie Izrael będzie decydować, kto może zasiadać w polskim parlamencie, a kto nie. Historia pokazała, do czego prowadzi nazizm - Polska wie o tym aż za dobrze. Dlatego nie jesteśmy i nie będziemy obojętni na powtórkę z historii, która właśnie się odbywa na Bliskim Wschodzie.
Mam nadzieję, że bezczelne kłamstwo o moim rzekomym „publicznym poparciu nazizmu” spotka się z odpowiednią reakcją polskich władz i wymiaru sprawiedliwości. A Izraelowi radzę, by zajął się prawdziwymi nazistami, których ma w swoim rządzie, na czele z premierem - zbrodniarzem i ludobójcą Benjaminem Netanjahu.
BREAKING: BBC has compiled evidence of more than 160 Palestinian children deliberately shot in the head by IDF soldiers and snipers in Gaza. They concluded the worst thing ever:
"Israeli jews are hunting children for fun."
