Utopia Talk / Politics / Trump selling seats on the "peace board"

murder rank	Sun Jan 18 18:31:09 US 'wants countries to pay $1bn to stay on Gaza peace board' Israel says they have not coordinated with the US over the structure of the Trump-backed Board of Peace. Donald Trump wants countries to pay $1bn to be permanent members of the US-backed Board of Peace, according to reports. The Board of Peace will form a key part of the Gaza peace process but a statement from the office of Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the US did not coordinate its creation with them. Israel's foreign minister Gideon Saar would raise the issue with US Secretary of State Marco ‍Rubio, the statement added. The Board of Peace, unveiled by the White House ‌on Friday, will be chaired by Donald Trump and tasked with supervising Gaza's transitional administration. It would include 11 members who will be part of an executive board, plus additional members. The US administration has reached out to around 60 countries to contribute $1 billion (£747 million) if they want their membership on the board to extend beyond three years, according to a draft charter seen by Reuters and first reported by Bloomberg News. The executive board includes Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, despite Israel's opposition to any Turkish role in Gaza. Read the rest here: https://ne...y-on-gaza-peace-board-13495801
Sam Adams rank	Sun Jan 18 19:26:31 Why are we paying for that shit hole at all? Let Israel exterminate them and be done with it.
Rugian rank	Sun Jan 18 19:59:59 "Why are we paying for that shit hole at all?" Short answer...Trump and Kushner have major business dealings with the Qataris, who have been leveraging that influence to use POTUS to put a leash on Israel. Before Trump, a bunch of pro-terrorist propaganda had transformed the left into a bunch of anti-Semitic Israel haters who pressured the Biden administration to turn on the country after 10/7. Basically we're living in the stupidest timeline possible.
murder rank	Sun Jan 18 20:06:46 "Basically we're living in the stupidest timeline possible." Not yet, but we're getting there. Also, Trump will eventually turn on Israel. 100% guaranteed. -

tumbleweed rank	Tue Jan 20 10:08:46 Q: Have you invited Putin to be a member of the Board of Peace? TRUMP: Yeah. He's been invited Q: Any response to Macron saying he won't join? TRUMP: Did he say that? Nobody wants him because he's going to be out of office very soon, so that's alright. What I'll do if they feel hostile, I'll put a 200% tariff on his wines & champagnes & he'll join, but he doesn't have to join, if he said that, you're probably giving it to me a little bit differently, but if he actually did say that... video of ^ https://bsky.app/profile/atrupar.com/post/3mctfwshr7n2q no indication of joking (as always, cause he isn't) forced joining to his board (of dictators)... nothing weird or completely insane...
Paramount rank	Tue Jan 20 13:47:36 Trump is right, though. Macron will be out of office soon.
Rugian rank	Tue Jan 20 14:00:35 So he's using tariffs to threaten any country that refuses to pay his bribe money? (I assume he's just pocketing the $1B, or at least a chunk of it) Congress needs to wake the fuck up and put SOME sort of guardrails on this guy already.
Paramount rank	Tue Jan 20 14:03:36 Rugian has become a communist and I would not be surprised if he has joined Antifa by the end of February :o)
murder rank	Tue Jan 20 19:01:50 "Congress needs to wake the fuck up and put SOME sort of guardrails on this guy already." The only way Congress will do anything to stop their boy king is if a few Republicans cross the aisle and take power away from Johnson and Thune. And even then any action would get derailed by Republican obstruction. The GOP chose its path. -

Trump @realDonaldTrump Dear Prime Minister Carney: Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its invitation to you regarding Canada’s joining, what will be, the most prestigious Board of Leaders ever assembled, at any time. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
tumbleweed rank	Fri Jan 23 06:31:28 Carney criticized him, nobody can do that also, obviously nobody can ask why Trump is the automatic chairman of a board supposedly about rebuilding Gaza & nobody can ask why he retains the seat even after/if leaving the 'presidency' (so clearly it isn't about the USA being head) & of course he has unique veto power over everyone else, as why not
Pillz rank	Fri Jan 23 06:34:25 I'm convinced that Trump got Carney elected on purpose just so he could spend the next several years just trolling the fuck out of him.
tumbleweed rank	Fri Jan 23 07:07:52 if you rearrange 'Board of Peace' it spells 'Legion of Doom'... (if you also change a lot of letters)
Pillz rank	Fri Jan 23 08:15:02 tw trying to explain what it's like for him to make up everything
tumbleweed rank	Fri Jan 23 09:09:34 actually i was thinking it's a lot like what Trump defenders have to do w/ everything he says to pretend it's sane & normal
Seb rank	Fri Jan 23 10:26:31 You guys misheard him. It's called the "Bored of peace"
patom rank	Fri Jan 23 12:42:37 God, I'm glad I'll be checking out of this life sooner than the rest of you.
jergul rank	Fri Jan 23 12:51:18 Patom That I doubt. Rural type lifestyle in a healthy state. You are good for another 8 years just based on averages. Not everyone here will make it that long. Again based on statistics.
