This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

I'm getting fed up with people who forget about things that happened just 10 months ago, and who are unable to use Google to look it up.

Biden didn't fail to force a deal through. He successfully negotiated a cease fire and hostage release agreement. January 15, 2025 when Biden was president: www.npr.org/2025/01/15/g...

Trump really just bragged at a Charlie Kirk memorial event that he’s better at dodging assassin’s bullets than Charlie Kirk.

Trump at the Charlie Kirk memorial event: "They fired sniper rifles at ICE agents, and me. But I made a turn at a good time. I made a turn at a good time. Charlie couldn't believe it, actually."

ICE is thug trash.

This morning I was filming ICE abducting sometime in Petworth. One of the agents told me "the last US citizen that did this he put in cuffs all the way to the courtroom".

I'm old enough to remember when it was considered political suicide to criticize the United States while on foreign soil. The number of times Donald has crossed that Rubicon are too many to count.

Trump on Egypt: "They have very little crime. Because they don't play games. That's why. Like we do in the United States with governors that have no idea what they're doing."

I bet this has to do with a Trump Organization project to build a theme park, a luxury hotel, and residential homes in Indonesia. In 2018, we learned the Chinese government was an investor. Earlier this year, Indonesia halted the project over environmental concerns.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Trump's conversation with Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is caught on a hot mic. Hard to tell exactly what they are talking about, but Subianto asks Trump about meeting Eric Trump and Don Jr, who supposedly have nothing to do with government while they run the family business.

Trump: "But Air Force One was really, it was covered with Egyptian desert just a few months ago. If you think about it. Just a few months ago it was Egyptian desert and now it was just a few feet off our window. And it was a spectacular sight."

Egypt has extremely strict gun control laws. Civilians are only permitted to own handguns -- no rifles or shotguns -- and only if they can prove they need the weapon for a specific purpose. Background checks for licensing are extensive and include vetting of family members and psych evaluations.

This has the vibes of Donald's premature celebration after the House passed the ACA repeal (which later failed in the Senate).

MARCO RUBIO: This is probably one of the most important days for world peace in 50 years. That's not an exaggeration

TRUMP: Only 50?

RUBIO: Maybe 100

After losing my friend and podcast partner Chez Pazienza in 2017, Marc's voice helped fill that cool-older-brother space in my life. When I listen to WTF, I often hear Chez's voice and it helped me to heal from his loss. Thank you for all of it @marcmaron.bsky.social. Looking forward to what's next.

I'm really going to miss WTF. Marc's show has been an unwavering companion though so many chapters of my life: moves to Hawaii, California, Maryland; driving to take care of my Dad at the end of his life; all points between. So grateful for his honesty, insight, and rock solid integrity. 1/2

More than a decade ago, I sat down with @marcmaron.bsky.social in his garage to tape something new called a podcast. This time, he came to me to record his last episode.

We talked about the power of conviction, decency in an age of division, and the true story of America.

Someone in my mentions is upset because these people haven’t suffered the worst at ICE’s hands and therefore they shouldn’t be praised for being out on the streets?

Yeah, no. To push back on these people we need everyone — especially those with relative privilege — to get up and get involved.
