Breaking News: The Waffle House Edition: Trump Officials Try to Walk Back Gaza Takeover Plan

"Mr. Trump was only proposing to clear out and rebuild Gaza...Mr. Trump " he doesn’t want to spend any U.S. dollars at all.” - Two sides of a mouth



Trump will rebuild Gaza without spending a single US dollar. Maybe Trump could get Canada or Mexico to pay for any rebuilding.

Live Updates: Trump Officials Try to Walk Back Gaza Takeover Plan


Less than 24 hours after Mr. Trump floated the plan, top administration officials sought to soften it.

Speaking to reporters in Guatemala, Secretary of State Marco Rubio twice suggested that Mr. Trump was only proposing to clear out and rebuild Gaza, not claim indefinite possession of the territory. Steve Witkoff, the special envoy to the Middle East, told Republican senators at a closed-door luncheon that Mr. Trump “doesn’t want to put any U.S. troops on the ground, and he doesn’t want to spend any U.S. dollars at all” on Gaza, according to Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri.

And at the White House, the press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said “the president has not committed to putting boots on the ground in Gaza,” though she did not specify how the United States could take control of the territory without using military force.

The Gaza proposal, which Mr. Trump unveiled on Tuesday during a visit by Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to the White House, upended decades of international diplomacy and opened a geopolitical Pandora’s box with far-reaching implications for the Middle East. Most immediately, it complicated talks about extending a fragile cease-fire between Israel and Hamas; placed Egypt and Jordan in an impossible position; and threatened the U.S. ambition for normalized diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia.


It's simply amazing. And in such a short period of time. The Trump Administration is flipping, and flopping, and floundering. Why? Using his best words, Trump spoke one of his genius thoughts. I'm thinking of when Trump thought he bested Obama for a Nobel peace Prize -- making a deal: peace between nations not at war with each other. Now this. Whooie.

And Josh Hawley, running to explain Trumpseak to the World.

During her confirmation hearing, Ms. Stefanik was asked by Senator Chris Van Hollen, Democrat of Maryland, whether she shared Mr. Smotrich’s view that Israel had a biblical right to the entire West Bank

She said she did.

In an interview, Mr. Van Hollen said that “there is a very dangerous alignment right now” between American and Israeli officials on the issue of Palestinian self-determination.

“Now we have someone in the White House who wants to greenlight the dreams of far-right extremists like Smotrich and Ben-Gvir,” he said, referring to Itamar Ben-Gvir, who recently resigned as Mr. Netanyahu’s national security minister over the cease-fire deal in Gaza.

On his first day in office, Mr. Trump signed an executive order reversing the Biden administration’s sanctions against a group of Israeli settlers responsible for violence and land grabs against Palestinians in the West Bank.

When the bill finally comes due, let us hope another Biden is in the wings ready to right some seriously wrong shit. Sleepy Joe did "infrastructure" he healed many riffs with neighbors and allies.
