Wittingly or not, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were outplayed by Team Russia during the trilateral peace talks just held in Abu Dhabi between the U.S., Ukraine and Russia.
Moscow didn't attend to negotiate peace in Ukraine.
Rather, Russian President Vladimir Putin saw an opening " gullibly handed to him by Witkoff and Kushner " to undermine European unity and to attempt to lay the groundwork to reshape NATO.

If there was one obvious conclusion from Democrats' sweeping victories in the mid-term elections on Tuesday, it seemed to be that the Republican effort to redraw congressional districts in their favor backfired.

"The White House's top lawyer sent a letter of warning to incoming House Oversight Committee chair Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Calif., on Wednesday, claiming that the Democrats' promise to investigate the Trump administration "may cross the line into blatant criminality."
White House counsel William Scharf wrote Garcia a three-page letter to "remind" him of the constitutional limits of congressional investigations, "which you and members of the new Congress have evinced a clear intent to transgress."
The letter, obtained by PBS News, accuses Democrats of "abusive and capricious threats" against President Donald Trump and members of his administration."

ACKSON, Miss. (AP) " Democratic nominee Scott Colom has defeated Republican Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith in Mississippi's closely contested U.S. Senate race after a prolonged ballot counting process, giving the state its first Black U.S. senator since post-Civil War Reconstruction.
Colom's narrow victory is a seismic shift in Mississippi, which has been controlled mostly by white conservatives for generations, and it will echo through the country as well.
The outcome adds to a decisive midterm rebuke of President Donald Trump, whose party suffered defeats in several Republican-controlled states, and it will bolster some Democrats' argument that their future runs through the American South.
My dad was afraid he was going to miss the second world war, was turned down at the Army, so at 16 he lied about his age to get into the Air Force.
But the war had ended a few months later as he trained to fly. He then became a Navigator on one of the huge new planes built for the massive number of dangerous flights that were the Berlin Airlift, and flew missions into the city.

"Restoration News operates with an explicit right-wing, conservative political bias, positioning itself directly within the "America First" movement. Rather than functioning as an independent, non-partisan newsroom, it is the media arm of a broader conservative political advocacy network."
JeffyBelle just reeks of desperation these days.
