The whole "deport Palestinians into Europe" thing has only been coming from Israelis so far, not from Trump. So far the only thing his admin has said is sending them to neighboring countries.

Officials of the administration are now saying they would only be relocated "temporarily" when Trump himself never said such a thing which indicates internally there is at least some acknowledgement to the push back that popped up in response to the earlier statements.

If Trump told Israel to shut the hell up, that isn't going to happen, would the spergs here shut up or would they consider it another part of the zionist conspiracy?

You fucking retards; just be quiet while you do what you can to further your own goals. No one needs to know your inner thoughts. Secrecy is good.

Someone may need to order me a crystal.
My cynicism is starting to override my optimism. Obviously trump is extremely pro Zionist but I had hoped it would be mostly contained to the sandbox and wasting federal aid.

I was literally just checking the thread to see if this was posted already. A slam dunk imo.

More things I've seen about the Gaza Plan:

It would seem this plan is not some epic own on Benny and Israel. In fact, it appears to have come directly from them and involves forcing Europeans to take the most forsaken, cursed, violent, disordered and resentful people in the Middle East as an additional burden.

I swear to God if they end up flooding them into Europe I'll never forgive Trump. I may be an American but I don't want to see the old country deal with yet another refugee crisis.

People who shit on Trump for being “Zion Don” are retarded, do I like Trump sucking Israel’s cock? No. But I realize that it is customary for ALL American politicians to do so. Throwing Israel out on its ass is not something we, realistically, can do in a couple weeks. The Israel lobby has enormous influence in Washington and it will take a couple more generations to be free of the Christian love of the state of Israel and the emotional hold the Holocaust has. I am hopeful that as people grow more and more critical of foreign influence and aid, that we can move on from the Zionist project.

Oh, I think it's going to be faster than that. Boomers are the last hold out.
Gen X doesn't care, and the young folks seem totally indifferent.

 

[Wild at Heart]

Are we actually giving Gaza back to Israel? I haven't seen anyone confirm that. I thought we were keeping ownership of it to develop resources and deter attacks.

And that, in turn, started with the New Deal, in which the Constitution was demoted from supreme law of the land to a list of suggestions, all of which can be explained away with "muh living document" and lawyers saying the right magic words.

But not for want of Justice Charles Evans Hughes' trying.

Wonder what branch they served in?

Alt reality commie ADF.

I'm disturbed by the people in here calling Elon an uwu smol bean, saying he's so adorable and autistic, as if they forgot that he wants to replace them and their children with infinity Indians. And he pledged to "go to war" about it. Do not forget that or let others forget it.

Yes he's an embarrasing sperg, but he's also the world's richest man. He didn't get there by taking his eyes off the ball. If he can do something at DOGE that helps him replace you with infinity Indians, he will.

Glad I'm not the only one. I'm very glad that Trump is president (and even more importantly, that JD is with him) but Elon is a fucking snake and I'm tired of feeling like I have to pretend he isn't.

I'm with Jambles on this

I think he’s okay so long as he’s kept on a very tight leash, and can only bring attention to wasteful government spending. I absolutely don’t trust him on anything like immigration. If he has another fiasco like what happened over Christmas, I want him kicked to the curb for good. He’s still a massive opportunist, but I’ll say at least one good thing he’s done is help get a lot of feds off of government payrolls. Outside of that, I’m not a fan of his business practices and him being a deadbeat dad. Elon has use, but it should always stay very limited.

I'm concerned that he has access to all this sensitive data. He has a lot of major tech bros working for him. I hope there's some oversight to make sure he's not doing anything untoward with the data.

Any American ownership of Gaza would inevitably result in the Israelis eventually purchasing the land for pennies on the dollar. It's a terrible deal for us.

I missed you Burger, I was afraid DOGE had gotten you fired.

I would be so happy I would by a Fillet-O-Fish™ to celebrate just because DJT likes them.

[John Shedletsky]

The Press Secretary claimed it wouldn't necessarily involve troops or spending on our end, but I don't see how that would even be possible.

Although I'm not sure either, the most likely case is that someone (more than likely Israel) will be paying a non-government contractor to reconstruct the Gaza strip.
As for who'll be occupying during reconstruction: I have no clue if they even want soldiers occupying the area. That's the only thing I would want specifics on. But it at least requires Israel and Palestine to stop fighting for a second so the area can be reconstructed. So maybe there's SOME hope that barely any military is needed to occupy the area, let alone from us. I really don't want American soldiers occupying the area.

Also I got the impression Trump has been bullying NetmanYahoo since before his inauguration. He sent his attack dog to negotiate a ceasefire that heavily favors Palestine. Now he (to the visible surprise of Netty) declared the US would own Gaza. The Israeli government has been out of the loop every time, so why take their "demands" as prophecy?

US-A-ID, the last two letters stand for International Development and not for humanitarian stuff, altho the name is deliberately ambiguous

They even do it on the logo to intentionally mislead people:

If you don't think most if not all of the important parts of this data haven't already been sold out to every data broker known to man, I don't know what to say. Politicians did not give a shit what happened to the citizens information for decades, and a majority of them still don't care. They only give a shit about keeping their bribery paper trails safe. There is nothing Musk and crew could do with this info that a thousand bad actors couldn't and likely have already done.

 

[General Emílio Médici]

Officials of the administration are now saying they would only be relocated "temporarily" when Trump himself never said such a thing which indicates internally there is at least some acknowledgement to the push back that popped up in response to the earlier statements.

Remember when Elon sperged out hard and Trump was absolutely silent for a week, before Vance nudged back on Elon?

I suspect something similar is happening. They are resolving issues behind closed doors and weighting options.

Also Trump loves to throw complete curveballs on people which American Gaza certainly was.

Oh no, based DOGE staffer down!

Short version:

Marko Elez, one of the two primary DOGE emissaries embedded in the Treasury Department, resigned from the Musk-led agency, the White House told The Wall Street Journal, after the publication uncovered Elez’s ties to a since-deleted X account with racist posts including calling for “eugenic immigration policy” and to “normalize Indian hate.”

(not my highlight, archive is taking a while)

I bet it was the normalize Indian hate that got him. Dude apparently worked in Silicon Valley for a bit so I get it.

Trump should reinstate him. He still needs to prove us that he's all for Total Poo Death.

If they're expelling the Gazans they'll need them. God, it's going to be a bloodbath. I think I'm going to be sick.

Now he (to the visible surprise of Netty) declared the US would own Gaza. The Israeli government has been out of the loop every time, so why take their "demands" as prophecy?

Well what's the end goal then? Creating an actual Palestinian state? That would be awesome, but I sadly am not confident that would happen.
