Судьба сделки

Если кратко, it's dead.

Если чуть подробнее.

Сенатор Lankford, главный переговорщик от республиканцев:

Reporter asks Lankford how it feels to be run over by a bus. Lankford replies: “And backed up.”

Сенатор Murphy, главный переговорщик от демократов:

I asked Sen. Murphy if there’s any hope for the border deal in the Senate.

“No,” he said flat out.

“Republicans have definitively sided with Donald Trump. They've decided they want to keep chaos at the border because it is a political winner for them”

Еще Murphy:

There’s nobody in charge. There’s no ability to follow a plan. We did everything they said and they abandoned it before they even read the bill. So I don’t know. This is admittedly a scary situation...

There is somebody in charge though. Liz Chenye gets it. As does anybody else who is not willfully stupid.

On Trump’s orders, Republicans in Congress are rejecting the border security deal. They’re also abandoning America’s allies in Ukraine. Trump and the GOP are losing the war on purpose in an inexcusable betrayal that will strengthen America’s enemies for years to come. https://t.co/j8YbfyS87Y

Edgy!

Такер уже сам подтверждает, что он в Москве для того, чтобы взять интервью у Путина.

Max Seddon, Moscow Bureau chief for Financial Times отмечает забавную деталь:

Tucker confirms he's in Russia to interview Putin, marking the first time Putin will speak to a platform that's *illegal in Russia*. Edgy!

Edgy indeed!

Тот же Max Seddon:

Quite something to complain about how not enough American journalists are reporting on the Russian side of Putin's invasion of Ukraine when two of them – Evan Gershkovich and Alsu Kurmasheva – are *in jail right now* for doing just that

Добавлю сюда еще твит Christiane Amanpour:

Does Tucker really think we journalists haven't been trying to interview President Putin every day since his full scale invasion of Ukraine? It's absurd -- we'll continue to ask for an interview, just as we have for years now.

Good stuff

Джоунс говорит, что Карлсон сказал ему, что интервью двух-часовое. Может и врет, конечно. Джоунс.
