.@wamu885 airing @NPRKelly Pompeo interview now...
listening to this, wonder if his rage started burning at the Iran questions.
yes, he was getting steamed at the Iran questions. giving all sorts of crap about Iran behavior during jcpoa at odds with iaea
when Kelly asks about Ukraine, Pompeo says he agreed to come on show to talk about Iran. Kelly says agreed w his staff last night on both
aide stops interview, Kelly thanks him. He leaves gruffly. Aide then asks Kelly to come to Pompeo private office living room,
he shouts at her, dropping f bombs. angry at Ukraine questions.

incredible
am entirely baffled why Pompeo thought it was going to go well to have her summoned to his living room to berate her
also, aide told her not to bring her recording equipment when pompeo had her summoned to yell at her

This is one of the striking findings of the polls seen last few days.
A majority of Americans do not think the war with Iran makes them or the world safer, but less safe. (And 1/5 thinks it makes no difference.)

(one of the big differences between American and Israeli public opinion on the Iran war.) For a majority of Americans, it is not just that they don’t want to do it. They don’t think it advances security.)
Reuters/Ipsos (4-day poll completed 3/23):
46% of respondents think war on Iran will make U.S. less safe;
Only 26% said it would make country safer;
rest said no effect.

Sarah Rogers has used her State Dept platform primarily to try to boost the far right AfD party in Germany and far right parties in UK, in seeming alignment with Elon Musk and other anti EU regulation tech bros. She has shown minimal interest in free speech in places like Iran
Here was one of her more startling State Department posts on Twitter, discussing “‘Jewish’ NGO tentacles,” “rapist hordes,” in a State Dept post that quote tweeted an account called the National Socialists of Tik Tok. Image
More from her recent TL, almost entirely focused on promoting anti EU far right parties and organizations in Europe and free speech for neo Nazi adjacent types. Image

🧵This is a lie, the mediator, “Persian Gulf diplomat” has said. “I can categorically state that this is inaccurate. He was explaining that all of this material can all go away should we have a deal and Iran can be relieved from sanctions.” ms.now/news/exclusive… x.com/acyn/status/20…
I reported, and it is a serious issue, that Witkoff and Kushner DID NOT UNDERSTAND the Iranian proposal or nuclear issues and continue not to understand. diplomatic.substack.com/p/was-diplomac…
You need to understand your opponent, you need to bring experts to help explain what you don’t know. Both on Iran & nuke issues. Kushner and Witkoff DID NOT UNDERSTAND an offer that may not have been good enough but was serious. It is like they had a 50% translation

🧵Powerful Star Tribune editorial: Minnesota is under siege:
“What we are witnessing is the storming of the state by the federal government.
Fraud investigation and immigration enforcement in Minnesota have become a pretext for a sweeping federal show of force that bears little relationship to the problem it claims to address.”
“It is indiscriminate. Noncitizen immigrants without legal status make up roughly 1.5% of Minnesota’s population — less than half the national average. Nothing about that figure justifies the scale, posture or tactics now widely deployed.
“The fatal shooting of 37yo Renee Good, an American citizen..., by an ICE agent on Jan. 7 brought into brutal focus what many communities had already bn experiencing: an enforcement strategy that erodes trust & often puts innocent people & lawful protesters in extreme danger.

👀🧵 “Rubio was scheduled to attend peace talks with Ukrainian officials in Switzerland, but Witkoff had set off early in what some officials saw as a bid to beat him to the punch…, Witkoff did not communicate his travel plans to Rubio & other State Dep. officials, the 3 sources said, in what they perceived as a move to allow Witkoff to negotiate with Ukraine in a way he saw fit.

nbcnews.com/politics/white…
“It was not the first time U.S. officials had seen Witkoff’s actions as an attempt to make an end-run around Rubio. …latest example of a long-running rift between the two senior figures…with sharply different views about how to end the war in Ukraine and how much the U.S. should trust Russia’s promises.”
“Late last month, days after the Geneva talks, Witkoff arranged a meeting with Ukrainian officials in Florida. Rubio became aware of the planned session only when the Ukrainians asked his team about it, according to a U.S. official and a person familiar with the incident.”

Second US official: “…details on security guarantees we are not ready to provide yet. They will come out soon. Think you will find everyone is happy with them.”
