Trump Transition Team Is Rightly Wary Of Sleazy General Services Administration
'Stealing records and sharing the victim’s private information isn’t any way to build up trust,' said Sen. Chuck Grassley.
JERUSALEM—Donald Trump named more than half a dozen pro-Israel hawks to key foreign policy roles this week, reassuring Israelis that the president-elect’s incoming administration will be as supportive as his first.
Trump’s picks largely ended talk in Israel that MAGA isolationism could weaken U.S. backing of the Jewish state. Israeli commentators hailed the roster—led by Sen. Marco Rubio (R., Fla.) for secretary of state and Fox News host Pete Hegseth for secretary of defense—as a "dream team."

Former White House senior adviser Jared Kushner's private equity fund has clinched an Israeli deal, marking the first ever Saudi Arabian-backed investment into Israel as the U.S. government continues to normalize relations between the two Middle Eastern countries.

Leftist media figure Mehdi Hasan suggested imagining a situation in which the left had "an actual propaganda arm" that frequently targeted former President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner.
"Imagine if liberals or the Dems had a nationwide messaging apparatus, an actual propaganda arm, which pumped out Jared Kushner’s name and alleged misdeeds daily, 100s of times," he wrote. "Then you start to understand the messaging imbalance in this country & how GOP gets away with so much."
Hasan, who hosts a show that appears on the notoriously left-leaning cable channel MSNBC and streams on Peacock, made the comments in response to a tweet in which Aaron Rupar had said that "Hunter Biden has already been mentioned at least 104 times *this morning* on Fox News and Fox Business, according to a transcript search. It's not 10am eastern yet."
People pounced on Hasan's comment.
"That's literally what your network is," Brad Polumbo responded.
"You work for MSNBC," Nicholas Fondacaro tweeted.
"Lol, you’re joking right? Msnbc and cnn are the dnc propaganda arm," someone else wrote.
"Most of us call that the mainstream media," another person tweeted.
"They do. It’s called the media (Even though it should branded satire). You are a part of that messaging apparatus," someone else commented.
"The absolute most hypocritical and mindless tweet for the day," another commenter declared.
"I don't have to imagine it. You're it," another person wrote.

Elon Musk proclaimed that he would step down as Twitter CEO if the users of the popular social media platform demanded his removal.
Musk conducted a new poll at 6:20 p.m. on Sunday, asking his more than 122 million followers if he should abdicate his leadership role on Twitter.
Musk tweeted, "Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll."
At the time of publication, nearly 5 million Twitter users voted in Musk's poll. Approximately 58% called for Musk to step down versus roughly 42% who wanted him to retain his Twitter CEO duties.
The poll is set to expire at around 4:20 a.m. on Monday.

A Twitter account suspected that Musk "already has the new CEO picked out." The user hypothesized, "Elon will retire to being Chairman of the Board and Tweeter."
Musk replied, "No one wants the job who can actually keep Twitter alive. There is no successor."
Musk responded to another Twitter user, "The question is not finding a CEO, the question is finding a CEO who can keep Twitter alive."
Popular podcast host, computer scientist, and artificial intelligence researcher Lex Fridman offered to be the Twitter CEO for free.
Fridman tweeted, "Fun suggestion @elonmusk: Let me run Twitter for a bit. No salary. All in. Focus on great engineering and increasing the amount of love in the world. Just offering my help in the unlikely case it's useful."
Musk replied, "You must like pain a lot. One catch: you have to invest your life savings in Twitter and it has been in the fast lane to bankruptcy since May. Still want the job?"
Despite the conditions, Fridman still wanted the job, and vowed to "turn it around."
There have been multiple controversies and eye-opening events since Musk acquired the social media network.
Musk helped release the "Twitter Files," Twitter temporarily suspended several journalists for reportedly doxxing his exact location in real time, and briefly banned Washington Post tech writer Taylor Lorenz.
Musk spent part of his Sunday watching the World Cup final between France and Argentina with Jared Kushner – the son-in-law of former President Donald Trump.
