Trump Must Abandon the Disastrous Ceasefire Deal with Hamas by Con Coughlin
February 23, 2025 at 5:00 am
- Ever since Hamas launched its murderous assault on Israel in October 2023, Hamas leaders, together with their supporters in Qatar and Iran, have calculated that any outcome from the Gaza conflict that enables Hamas to remain in control of the enclave counts as a victory.
- This agenda for its long-term-client, Hamas, explains why Qatar, which claimed to be a neutral player during the ceasefire negotiations in Doha, has been so keen to oversee a deal that favours Hamas at the expense of Israel’s long-term security. This is the same country, after all, that helped to facilitate the deal with the first Trump administration that resulted in the return of the Taliban to power in Afghanistan.
- If Trump and Netanyahu are really serious about achieving lasting peace in Gaza, they must abandon the disastrous ceasefire deal — and especially the well-intended but painfully out-of-his-depth U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, who has mindlessly promoted it.
- Regrettably, Witkoff is on his way to wrecking Trump’s election triumph by equally disastrous negotiations in Ukraine, where the US is punishing the victim, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and rewarding the aggressor, Russian President Vladimir Putin. If Trump succeeds in torpedoing his month-old presidency, the blame goes to Witkoff.

Nothing better illustrates the dire shortcomings of the flawed ceasefire deal agreed between Israel and Iran-backed Hamas than the terrorist organisation’s despicable mistreatment of the Israeli hostages it has so far agreed to set free.
By far the most grotesque exhibition of Hamas’s contempt for the hostages was their handling of the handover of four Israelis murdered as a result of the October 7, 2023 attacks. Not only was the handover ceremony staged as a propaganda rally for Hamas, it later transpired that one of the slain hostage bodies was not that of Shiri Bibas, as had been agreed in the ceasefire deal. In addition, the Israeli authorities revealed that Bibas’s two sons, Ariel (four years old at the time of his abduction) and Kfir (9 months old), whose bodies were returned at the same time, had been murdered by Hamas, and not killed in Israeli airstrikes as the terrorist group had claimed.
Hamas’s shocking disrespect for the dead hostages prompted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to declare that Hamas would “pay the price for this cruel and wicked violation of the agreement.”
Hamas’s latest outrage is in keeping with their willingness to exploit the ceasefire agreement ever since the first Israeli hostages were freed following the implementation of the ceasefire deal last month. With every release, shocking details have emerged of the terrorist group’s unspeakable treatment of the surviving hostages that were seized during the October 7 terrorist attack against Israel, during which 1,200 Israelis were murdered and another 250 taken hostage.
Under the first phase of the ceasefire deal originally negotiated by the Biden administration, but implemented as then President-elect Donald Trump prepared to commence his second term as president, Hamas has agreed to release 33 hostages held in Gaza in return for Israel releasing hundreds of convicted Palestinian prisoners, many who are imprisoned for committing acts of terrorism.
Fears that Hamas would simply use the ceasefire deal as a propaganda opportunity have now been confirmed both by the terror group’s callous handling of the hostage releases, with many of the Israeli captives being forced to run the gauntlet of a baying Palestinian mob, as well as the chilling details that have emerged of their appalling treatment while in captivity.
In one of the more sickening episodes of Hamas’s carefully-choreographed hostage releases, four young Israeli female captives were paraded through the streets of Gaza in late January before finally being released.
More Israelis were outraged by the gaunt appearance of three hostages released earlier this month after it was clear they were suffering from severe malnutrition and had suffered significant weight loss while in captivity.
A British family member of one of the released Israeli hostages remarked that “It looks as though he’s been to Belsen,” Nazi Germany’s infamous concentration camp. Others denounced the “grotesque spectacle” of the hostage releases.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog posted on X shortly after the hostages’ release: “This is what a crime against humanity looks like!”
Details have also emerged since the release of the last batch of hostages last week of how they were routinely tortured while in captivity, with one of the released captives confirming that he was “tortured during interrogations” by Hamas terrorists and had the scars on his body to show for it.
Hamas’s cynical exploitation of the hostages’ release for its own propaganda purposes, which included presenting one of the hostages with an hourglass menacingly depicting the fate of another hostage who still remains in captivity, has already come close to ending the ceasefire, with Israeli officials accusing Hamas of violating the agreement.
While Israel has reluctantly agreed — for the moment — to continue with the ceasefire process, the prospects of it surviving beyond the first phase look increasingly remote amid deepening Israeli anger both at Hamas’s inhumane treatment of the hostages and its deliberate attempt to exploit the hostages’ release for its own propaganda purposes.
With the first phase of the ceasefire, which began on January 19, due to come to an end in two weeks’ time, the probability of it moving to the next phase looks increasingly unlikely the more the inherent flaws of the original agreement become apparent.
Netanyahu’s reservations about continuing with the ceasefire process have increased after Hamas terrorists regained control of Gaza once the agreement came into force.
Netanyahu has warned he is prepared to resume military operations against Hamas if the terror group does not release all the remaining hostages, warning that the “gates of hell” will be opened if they are not freed.
Netanyahu’s reluctance to persist with the ceasefire will have been boosted, moreover, by recent comments made by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio after meeting with the Israeli premier. Rubio declared that Hamas cannot be allowed to continue as either a military or political force in Gaza.
“As long as it stands as a force that can govern or as a force that can administer or as a force that can threaten by use of violence, peace becomes impossible,” Rubio said after meeting with Netanyahu in Jerusalem. “It [Hamas] must be eradicated.”
Rubio’s comments follow Trump’s recently-announced plan for Gaza, in which he called on neighbouring Arab states to allow Gaza’s two million Palestinian inhabitants to relocate to their territory.
Rubio’s open disdain for Hamas, together with the terrorist organisation’s blatant disregard for the well-being of the Israeli hostages, must raise serious questions about whether the ceasefire in its current form is fit for purpose.
Any agreement that allows Hamas to reclaim control over Gaza, while at the same time being allowed to publicly humiliate the hostages when they are finally released, is clearly fundamentally flawed, and should not be allowed to proceed to the next stage.
A permanent ceasefire in Gaza would simply reward Hamas for carrying out the worst terrorist attack in Israel’s history.
Ever since Hamas launched its murderous assault on Israel in October 2023, Hamas leaders, together with their supporters in Qatar and Iran, have calculated that any outcome from the Gaza conflict that enables Hamas to remain in control of the enclave counts as a victory.
This agenda for its long-term-client, Hamas, explains why Qatar, which claimed to be a neutral player during the ceasefire negotiations in Doha, has been so keen to oversee a deal that favours Hamas at the expense of Israel’s long-term security. This is the same country, after all, that helped to facilitate the deal with the first Trump administration that resulted in the return of the Taliban to power in Afghanistan.
In such circumstances, Rubio and the rest of the Trump administration must accept that the ceasefire deal is deeply flawed and must not be allowed to continue.
If Trump and Netanyahu are really serious about achieving lasting peace in Gaza, they must abandon the disastrous ceasefire deal — and especially the well-intended but painfully out-of-his-depth U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, who has mindlessly promoted it.
Regrettably, Witkoff is on his way to wrecking Trump’s election triumph by equally disastrous negotiations in Ukraine, where the US is punishing the victim, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and rewarding the aggressor, Russian President Vladimir Putin. If Trump succeeds in torpedoing his month-old presidency, the blame goes to Witkoff.
Trump has graciously allowed Israel to achieve its stated objective to “open the gates of hell” if Hamas does not return all its hostages. Only then can the job of rebuilding Gaza really begin.

Ukraine’s Borders: A Century of Flux and the Myth of Permanence @AMUSE
FEB 23, 2025
There is a persistent belief—particularly among Western observers—that Ukraine’s borders, as they stood on the eve of 2014, were somehow sacrosanct, immutable, a fixed reality of the international order. This view betrays a profound ignorance of history. The notion that any European border, let alone Ukraine’s, is beyond dispute ignores the repeated redrawings of maps, the frequent rise and fall of territorial claims, and the consistent reality of border changes through war, treaty, and political maneuvering. Ukraine, in particular, is one of the most illustrative examples of this broader historical phenomenon. If there is a European country whose borders could be considered permanently settled, Ukraine is not it.
The history of Ukraine’s borders is a history of shifting sovereignties. The land that today constitutes Ukraine has been contested ground for centuries, passing through the hands of empires, republics, and military occupations. Its territorial definition has been redrawn at least a dozen times in the last few hundred years, often at the whims of external forces. Its current borders, inherited from the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, are more of a historical accident than a product of some long-standing, organic national unity.
Consider the earliest configurations of the region. The medieval state of Kievan Rus, often cited as Ukraine’s foundational polity, was not a distinct Ukrainian entity but a loose federation of East Slavic principalities stretching from modern-day Belarus to Russia. It had no fixed borders in the contemporary sense, its influence waxing and waning with the strength of its rulers. When the Mongols sacked Kyiv in 1240, the remnants of Kievan Rus splintered, and control over Ukrainian lands shifted westward to the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. By the late 14th century, most of Ukraine was under Lithuanian or Polish control, its borders dictated by dynastic marriages and military conquests rather than any intrinsic national identity.
The Union of Lublin in 1569 transferred most of what is now Ukraine from Lithuanian to direct Polish control, integrating it into the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. This arrangement lasted barely more than a century before the 1648 Cossack uprising against Polish rule created an autonomous Hetmanate in central Ukraine, a quasi-state that in turn sought the protection of Russia through the Pereyaslav Agreement of 1654. That agreement led, within a few decades, to Ukraine being partitioned along the Dnieper River between Poland and Russia—just one of many instances where Ukraine’s territorial fate was decided by external actors.
By the late 18th century, the collapse of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth resulted in yet another reconfiguration. The Russian Empire absorbed Right-Bank Ukraine, while the Austrian Habsburgs took control of Galicia, Bukovina, and Transcarpathia. At the same time, Catherine the Great expanded Russian control over southern Ukraine, annexing the Crimean Khanate in 1783. These changes laid the foundation for the Ukraine of the 19th century: a divided land, split between Russian and Austrian dominions, with no unified political existence of its own.
World War I and the Russian Revolution created another moment of flux. As the empires of Eastern Europe collapsed, multiple Ukrainian states were declared between 1917 and 1920—the Ukrainian People’s Republic, the West Ukrainian People’s Republic, even a short-lived Ukrainian Soviet Republic. But these fledgling entities were short-lived, crushed by Bolsheviks from the east and Poles from the west. The Treaty of Riga in 1921 formally divided Ukraine once again: western territories fell under Polish rule, while the east became the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, a constituent part of the USSR.
Even within the Soviet Union, Ukraine’s borders were not fixed. In the interwar period, the Ukrainian SSR lost some territory to the newly formed Moldavian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic in 1924. In 1939, following the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, Soviet troops invaded eastern Poland and annexed western Ukraine, shifting the republic’s borders westward. In 1940, Northern Bukovina and parts of Bessarabia were taken from Romania and added to Ukraine. In 1945, Transcarpathia was transferred from Czechoslovakia to Soviet Ukraine. These expansions completed the territorial shape of what would become independent Ukraine in 1991—but they were hardly natural or inevitable.
The last major border adjustment before Ukraine’s independence was the 1954 transfer of Crimea from the Russian Soviet Republic to the Ukrainian SSR. At the time, this move was largely symbolic, an administrative shift within the Soviet Union with little consequence. But when the Soviet Union collapsed, Ukraine’s leaders insisted that the inherited Soviet boundaries should be the inviolable borders of the new state. That position—embraced by Western policymakers in the post-Cold War settlement—ignored the long history of border fluidity in the region and the tenuousness of Ukrainian sovereignty over territories that had never been definitively “Ukrainian” in any historical sense.
The events of 2014 and beyond fit into this broader historical pattern. Russia’s annexation of Crimea was not a sudden aberration but rather a return to a historical norm in which Ukraine’s frontiers were subject to external pressures and internal upheavals. The war in the Donbas, the contested status of Luhansk and Donetsk, and the shifting military lines in the current conflict all reinforce the reality that Ukraine’s borders—like those of much of Eastern Europe—are far from settled.
This does not mean that Ukraine’s sovereignty is illegitimate or that territorial integrity should not be defended. But it does mean that appeals to the supposed permanence of borders, as though they were some unchanging fact of nature, are fundamentally ahistorical. Ukraine, like Poland, Germany, and countless other European nations, has had its borders drawn and redrawn by the forces of history. To claim that they are now unchallengeable is to ignore centuries of evidence to the contrary.
Iran: To Talk or Not to Talk, That is the Question by Amir Taheri
February 23, 2025 at 4:00 am
- The talk party suggests that Iran should offer to freeze its nuclear program for two to three years, at the end of which it would decide which direction it should take.
- Those who market the above analysis assume that the US, and for that matter Israel, will stand by and see how the Iranian adversary bounces back from the edge of doom.
- Khamenei, who controls law and order forces, has put them on partial alert to nip any revolt in the bud. This is accompanied by a massive crackdown against potential dissidents, especially in Tehran, with reports of arbitrary arrests.
- All this does mean that the “Supreme Guide” isn’t prepared to perform another of his “heroic flexibilities” by accepting a deal with the “Great Satan” to sit out Trump’s four-year tenure, a game that led seven consecutive US presidents up the garden path, allowing the Islamic Republic of Iran to approach its golden jubilee.
Iran’s “Supreme Leader” Ali Khamenei, who controls law and order forces, has put them on partial alert to nip any revolt in the bud. This is accompanied by a massive crackdown against potential dissidents, especially in Tehran, with reports of arbitrary arrests.

With the Trump administration sending conflicting signals about its intentions on dealing with Iran, the Iranian leadership is once again divided on how to respond.
One faction is trying to paint a grim picture in which the US will give Israel enough support to inflict a heavy defeat on Iran to complete the defeats already inflicted on Tehran’s allies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen. Such a humiliation will encourage the regime’s opponents both inside and outside the country to take to the streets and seize power while a demoralized Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps will do what it did in Syria, that is to say, run for economic crisis cover to save its skin.
The same faction argues that the current economic crisis has sapped the will and energy of the regime’s dwindling support base, making regime change a real possibility for the first time.
So, how to negotiate such a dangerous bend of the road?
The faction’s luminaries, including President Masoud Pezeshkian, suggest opening talks aimed at preventing a war and allowing things to cool down.
But who should one talk to?
Talking to the US is supposed to be verboten according to “Supreme Guide” Ali Khamenei who cites a fatwa by the founder of the regime, Ruhollah Khomeini, to that effect, plus an act of the “Islamic Majlis,” the ersatz parliament that endorses the ban.
The answer is: the European trio of France, Germany and Great Britain, which coincidentally have bumpy relations with Washington.
The theory goes that the trio will welcome a diplomatic coup to restore part of the prestige they have lost because of President Donald Trump’s decision to exclude them from his Ukraine peace initiative and plans for the future of Gaza.
But what could one talk about without being forced to offer concessions that result in a massive loss of face?
The talk party suggests that Iran should offer to freeze its nuclear program for two to three years, at the end of which it would decide which direction it should take. Right now, Iran is spending vast resources on a program that has no obvious civilian or military use or justification.
In exchange, the European trio will use the mechanism provided by UN Security Council Resolution 3221 to avoid opening the path for taking military action against Iran. The above-mentioned resolution expires in October, making any unintended consequence a possibility. A deal with the Europeans could help ease pressure on Iran, inject some vitality in a moribund economy, and help prevent a massive popular revolt.
Those who market the above analysis assume that the US, and for that matter Israel, will stand by and see how the Iranian adversary bounces back from the edge of doom.
That analysis is opposed by the faction still totally loyal to Khamenei, who insists that any show of weakness could accelerate moves towards regime change. His advice is to stand firm and prepare for war. The first step is to build a war chest. This is done by reducing the supply of foreign currency to the market to allow the national currency to fall further. The currency which fetched $1 with 650,000 rials now needs 900,000.
This is a trick used by the Allies when they invaded and occupied Iran in World War II.
Because their expenditures in Iran were in the local currency, they forced a 50 percent devaluation of the rial.
Now used by Khamenei, that trick increases the state’s purchasing power while reducing the purchasing power of Iranian families, including the state’s military and civilian personnel. To partly compensate for that, the key personnel needed in a war are granted exceptional bonuses.
Khamenei, who controls law and order forces, has put them on partial alert to nip any revolt in the bud. This is accompanied by a massive crackdown against potential dissidents, especially in Tehran, with reports of arbitrary arrests.
All this does mean that the “Supreme Guide” isn’t prepared to perform another of his “heroic flexibilities” by accepting a deal with the “Great Satan” to sit out Trump’s four-year tenure, a game that led seven consecutive US presidents up the garden path, allowing the Islamic Republic of Iran to approach its golden jubilee.
Today, to talk or not to talk is a question not only for rival factions in Tehran but also for powers that, rightly or wrongly, are convinced that there could be no regional peace and stability without persuading or forcing what François Mitterrand called “le grand perturbateur” (“the big troublemaker”) to change or to be changed.
Amir Taheri was the executive editor-in-chief of the daily Kayhan in Iran from 1972 to 1979. He has worked at or written for innumerable publications, published eleven books, and has been a columnist for Asharq Al-Awsat since 1987.

Lying by omission TIERNEY’S REAL NEWS
FEB 22, 2025
Most people still don’t know the sequence of events that really happened on J6. Here’s a reminder. I wrote this over 4 years ago on January 8, 2021 – two days after J6 happened – and it’s all pretty much been proven true.
1) Trump KNEW what the coup plotters were plotting on the 6th, so he arrived an hour late to the DC stage, where ONE MILLION Patriots stood before him, and talked longer than he intended, before he asked MAGA to walk peacefully down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol. He also didn’t walk or ride WITH them as he promised because he was told it was not safe. NONE of the Trump supporters were armed or dangerous or wearing costumes.
2) Pelosi, Pence & McConnell planned to start the joint debate & certification session early and expected Trump and his supporters to appear outside the Capitol just BEFORE they started when the chamber was empty. The plan was to unleash ANTIFA-BLM terrorists into the building and then BLAME Trump for the violence. Then they would arrest HIM for an armed insurrection. NOT kidding. I’ve reviewed thousands of pieces of evidence & it was all staged.
3) Pence would then call for Trump’s removal under the 25th amendment. What did Trump do? He had PRE-TAPED a message to the people asking for peace & asking them to go home and be safe. He delayed his speech so it ended well after the Feds breached the Capitol. Then he got on a plane and went to a secure location.
4) This explains why Trump did what he did on the 6th. Why he said, to the MILLION people before him, that he had “heard” bad things about what Pence was planning. When that plan failed, they called back Congress to finish debate & Biden’s certification but used most of that time to bash Trump. Again, part of the plan.
5) Rudy and another Constitutional lawyer, John Eastman, also explained to the crowd their plan to argue for a Constitutional delay. They had actually reached out to Senators and asked them to stick to the original schedule they promised to allow a complete debate – but they refused to respond. Then, Trump’s Twitter account was banned to remove his peaceful video – so they could say he was inciting violence and remove proof of his calls for peace. Facebook & Instagram followed.
PASTOR GREG LOCKE: “The Capitol was a set up from the word Go. The media is complicit by spreading totally false information. I was there. They are lying. We are watching the Left steal an entire Nation right before our very eyes.”
He’s right. There’s numerous videos of DC police LETTING people in the door – taking selfies with them – it’s like they were telling Trump supporters it was a tour and all were welcome. Meanwhile, BLM-ANTIFA terrorists were up front creating havoc and innocent people were unaware. They were only there for the cameras so the Deep State could use them as patsies.
6) At the same time, a sworn affidavit was received from an hacker who worked for an Italian defense contractor who works for the Deep State, who CONFESSED, under oath, that he had RIGGED the election against Trump. He had also testified in open court to the same. Also, DNI Ratcliffe finally released his report on foreign election interference & blamed China, Iran, Russia & more. Congress panicked & needed to bury both pieces of evidence that could derail the certification.
7) They finished up at 4am and half the Senate – who agreed to object – now did not do what they promised. There were no objections to Georgia, Nevada, Wisconsin or New Mexico as Ted Cruz, Ron Johnson & Josh Hawley promised. Even Rand Paul bailed. Things moved quickly – they conspired together to allow LITTLE evidence presented.
8) Pence allowed debate to start & stop & end, even though he had told the President that he couldn’t adjust the timing at all because it was sacrosanct & he must respect the process. In other words, it was a total set up against Trump & Pence refused to honor his sacred duties.
9) Then they began plotting the removal of President Trump again today. They ignored the shooting death of a female Trump supporter by a DC cop, they ignored evidence that BLM-ANTIFA incited the riots, they blamed racism, they VILIFIED both Trump & all of us. All part of the plan.
10) Pelosi & Schumer are both calling for Pence to remove Trump under the 25th. They’re passing around articles of impeachment that prevent the President from ever running for office again. Facebook & Instagram banned him for 2 weeks for no reason.
11) The media is calling for the immediate arrest of Trump, Giuliani & Eastman for insurrection. Big Tech is removing his product websites and corporations are calling to remove him from office. Police are holding residents at his hotels hostage against their will. And more…
12) This is the GREAT RESET. The NWO Communist takeover of the world. If they can do this to our President, imagine what they can do to you and me?
13-14) In my opinion, they are abusing their power to paint a good man who loves his country as a dangerous person. They are painting us all as evil monsters as well. Trump supporters aren’t the fringe GOP. We ARE the GOP and the party is OVER. None of us will EVER vote for the same failed GOP self-serving elitists that have worked hand in hand with the Democrats for the past 40 years to destroy everything good and pure about America while lining their own pockets and fleecing ours. It’s time for a new party. Our very SURVIVAL depends on it.
15) Let me add one more point about Pence & his authority in the chamber. John Eastman, one of the nation’s most respected Constitutional lawyers, told Pence that he the authority to reject illegal or unconstitutional electors in the swing states where two slates were given.
16) Many states WANTED to investigate their elections further but felt restrained by their Governors who wouldn’t allow them to call a session. They sent two sets of electors to alert Congress there was a dispute. Eastman told Pence he was ONLY allowed to accept legally cast….
17) electors that complied with the state legislature & Federal constitution. Since all the swing states did NOT comply, he could send them back to the state legislatures & ask them to investigate further & fix them. Pence agreed to do that early on — and then changed his mind.
18) Pence came back later & said “I don’t want to choose electors.” Trump told Pence he didn’t ask him to choose electors. He asked Pence to send BOTH slates back to the states & let THEM decide. Then Pelosi rewrote the rules at the last minute to give Pence a reason to break his promise! The truth is coming out that Pence & Paul Ryan & the Bush family WERE conspiring against Trump all along.
TRUMP: “Mike Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution, giving States a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify. USA demands the truth!”
The real reason Barr was pushed out early was because Trump found out that Barr, along with a US Attorney & a Judge, were colluding to cover up evidence of a massive ballot harvesting scheme in Michigan – they had recordings proving it was happening & did nothing. Trump was shocked. THAT SHOWS YOU HOW FAR THEY WENT TO COVER UP THE FRAUD.
After Barr & Cipollone refused to file Trump’s Pennsylvania case before SCOTUS – which was based on proof that hundreds of thousands of ballots were cast illegally due to unambiguous Constitutional violations – Trump asked the AG of Texas to do so. As you know, SCOTUS declined to hear the Texas case based on “standing.” So, on December 23rd, Trump’s personal attorney, John Eastman, filed a request for an expedited hearing on the Pennsylvania case before SCOTUS.
SCOTUS kicked the can down the road and asked for responses from the Pennsylvania Secretary of State & other electoral offices on January 22nd – after the inauguration. That way they wouldn’t be interfering in the electoral process. The same thing happened with DNI Ratcliffe & the intelligence community. They withheld their report on foreign election interference until January 7th and Trump could NOT use his 2018 Executive order to delay the electoral college meeting on January 6th in Congress & sanction the coup plotters. Both of these actions neutered Trump’s ability to act.

How could I, a simple citizen journalist, figure out the truth about J6 that fast – that the rest of the world did not? It would take almost 3 years, two impeachments, four indictments, 91 felony counts & an endless witch hunt for the rest of the fake news to catch up to what I learned in just two days. What’s wrong with that picture? That’s pretty much proof that the media LIE by omission as well as lying right to our faces – even the ones we are supposed to trust.

Kash Patel Confirmed as Deep State Rats Freak Out [11:44] JEROME R. CORSI, PH.D.
Adam Schiff, Prince of Darkness, Author of Lies, and His Fellow Malevolent Minions Fear the Light, and the Righteous Wrath to come. Justice Dawning.
FEB 21, 2025
Kash Patel has been confirmed by the Senate to lead the FBI by a 51-49 Senate vote as the Deep State Rats are terrified and going all-out on an anti-Patel gaslighting campaign led by the likes of Senators Adam Schiff and Sheldon Whitehouse. Of what are they afraid? Dr. Jerome Corsi looks deeply into what Patel may do and why the Deep State is threatened by him.
