💳 Spending thousands of dollars on dangerous coronaviruses

💳 Pottery classes in Morocco

💳 Tourism in Lebanon (even when the State Department was advising against travel)

"I could go on and on and on," Ernst pointed out.

🇵🇸Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas responds to Trump's statements:

🟠The Palestinian people will not give up their land, and the Gaza Strip is an integral part of Palestine.

🟠We will not allow any violation of our people's rights, for which we have fought for decades and made great sacrifices.

🟠These calls are a serious violation of international law. Peace and stability in the region cannot be achieved without the creation of a Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital, based on the 1967 borders and a two-state solution.

🎁Gift or warning? Netanyahu gives Trump golden pager

“That was a great operation,” the US president reportedly quipped after being handed the unusual present – an obvious reference to the September 2024 Israeli intelligence operation targeting Hezbollah commanders, which killed 42 and left some 4,000 people in Lebanon injured.

The pagers were detonated simultaneously using explosives concealed inside their batteries.

Netanyahu also reportedly gifted Trump a regular pager. Israeli media did not offer an explanation on its purpose.

Trump reciprocated by giving Netanyahu a signed photo of the two of them signed “To Bibi, a Great Leader!” in black Sharpie.
