Prince Charles Flew 16K Miles In Just 11 Days Using 3 Private Jets Before Posing With Greta Thunberg, Lecturing World About Climate Change…

Well done, Prince Charles.

Via Daily Mail:

Prince Charles was last night facing embarrassment after taking a series of private jet flights while lecturing world leaders about climate change.

On a trip to the World Economic Forum in Davos last week, the Prince met activist Greta Thunberg and used an electric Jaguar car to travel to the Swiss resort.

But the MoS can reveal that in the 11 days before his high-profile appearance, Charles took three flights on private jets for official Government business and one on a helicopter.

After his speech last Wednesday, during which he urged world leaders to take ‘bold and imaginative action’ on the environment, he took a fourth jet to Israel for an official trip.

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Anti-Trump CIA ‘Whistleblower’ in Ukraine Hoax Was the Leaker in the Russia Hoax!… And Much, Much More!

The leaker in the Ukraine Hoax is also a key contributor to the Russia Hoax.  His treasonous actions began after he worked with the Bidens in the Ukraine during the Obama Administration.

Last night on The Ingraham Angle on FOX News, Laura Ingraham invited Sara Carter and author Lee Smith on to discuss the individual who was instrumental in setting up President Trump in the Russia and Ukraine Hoaxes:

Via The Ingraham Angle:

The Gateway Pundit reported the following about the suspected ‘whistleblower’ months ago:

Everybody knows who Eric Ciaramella is.  He’s the star of Rep. Adam Schiff’s impeachment sham.  Ciaramella was outed more than a month ago as the individual who is known as the ‘whistleblower’.

On October 11th we knew the following about Eric Ciaramella –

1. He is dishonest – He made a claim that was false and is working with the most dishonest person in US political history, Adam Schiff.  You are who you run with.

2. He is anti- Trump – He must be.  The man must hate the President so much in order to make false claims about the President and risk his own name in the process.  He must seethe with rage when thinking about President Trump.  Unfortunately his rage got the best of him.  He must have worked for Obama.

3. He worked or works for the CIA – In a series of posts we have reported and the media as a whole has reported that the so-called ‘whistleblower’ is a current or former employee of the CIA.

4. He worked in the White House – This snitch reportedly had a position in the White House.

5. He has connections with a 2020 Presidential campaign – We heard this a few days ago.

6. He worked with Biden when Biden was a VP – We reported this last night.

The Washington Examiner reported:

The 2020 Democratic candidate with whom the CIA whistleblower had a “professional” tie is Joe Biden, according to intelligence officers and former White House officials.

Lawyers for the whistleblower said he had worked only “in the executive branch.” The Washington Examiner has established that he is a career CIA analyst who was detailed to the National Security Council at the White House and has since left. On Sept. 26, the New York Times reported that he was a CIA officer. On Oct. 4, the newspaper added that he “was detailed to the National Security Council at one point.”

Michael Atkinson, the Intelligence Community’s inspector general, told members of Congress that the whistleblower had a “professional tie” to a 2020 Democratic candidate. He had written earlier that while the whistleblower’s complaint was credible, he had shown “some indicia of an arguable political bias … in favor of a rival political candidate.”

A retired CIA officer told the Washington Examiner, “From everything we know about the whistleblower and his work in the executive branch then, there is absolutely no doubt he would have been working with Biden when he was vice president.”

7. He reportedly fears for his safety – Scott Pelly on 60 Minutes’ reportedly claimed that the whistleblower feared for his or her safety.

In a hit piece on conservatives Yahoo repeated that Mike Cernovich targeted an individual who worked for former National Security Advisor H. R. McMaster, claiming the individual wanted to ‘sabotage’ President Trump and also claiming he is ‘pro-Ukraine and anti-Russia’.

Funny, when you click on the name ‘Eric Ciaramella’ in the post above, you get this –

Cernovich reported in June, 2017, that McMaster promoted Ciaramella in spite of being connected to Susan Rice in Obama’s White House –

West Wing officials confirmed to Cernovich Media that Eric Ciaramella, who worked closely with Susan Rice while at NSC, was recently promoted to be H.R. McMaster’s personal aide. Ciaramella will have unfettered access to McMaster’s conversations with foreign leaders.

(Ciaramella’s old boss, McMaster, was in the news siding with the whistleblower.)

Politico shared this about Ciaramella, in a hit piece claiming Trump supporters in the White House claimed people like Ciaramella were ‘deep state’ – they may have been right – [emphasis added below]

Trump political appointees were believed to frequently talk to journalists who worked for conservative media outlets. For months, those outlets published names of career Civil and Foreign Service officers in the NSC and other government agencies whose loyalties they deemed suspect. Career staffers who had joined the U.S. government many years, sometimes decades, earlier were suddenly cast as Obama loyalists determined to derail Trump’s agenda as part of a “deep state.” The people targeted included a State Department civil servant of Iranian descent who’d joined government under the George W. Bush administration; a highly respected Foreign Service officer who dealt with Israeli issues; and an NSC staffer who dealt with European and Russian issues. The latter, Eric Ciaramella, reportedly left the NSC after receiving death threats. Another staffer targeted by conservative outlets was Fernando Cutz, a Latin America expert and top aide to McMaster; at one point he had to temporarily get police protection. (Cutz was maligned by conservative websites in part because he earned a master’s degree from the University of Arkansas’ Clinton School of Public Service, thus supposedly linking him to another Democratic president.)

Also, others have noted Ciaramella was Obama’s NSC Director for the Ukraine.  This connects him and his team at the NSC to Joe Biden.  Biden was Obama’s lead in the Ukraine so it’s implausible that Ciararmella and his team were not connected to Biden.  Schiff’s leakers are connected to Biden also.

According to Politico Ciaramello quit the NSC in the past couple of years and returned to his ‘home agency’ –

And, we also know that Ciaramella attended a dinner in DC with James Clapper, James Comey, Italy’s former Prime Minister Renzi who is connected to Obama and the Russia Collusion hoax, John Kerry and others.  Were the origins of the Schiff hoax concocted at this meeting  –

The man at the middle of the Ukraine scam is an anti-Trump CIA spy who worked in the Obama and Trump White House.  We know that suspected ‘Whistleblower’ Eric Ciaramella Met with Numerous George Soros Related Guests at Obama’s White House.

 

Eric Ciaramella was close to Barack Obama and many other individuals connected to George Soros.  We reported on September 7, 2016, Eric Ciaramella from the Obama Administration met with a group of individuals that included an Executive from a George Soros connected group. What did they discuss? The meeting included Donald M. Camp, Jessica M. Gray, Baily S. Holladay (Russian Linguist/Analyst, NSA), Michael D. Jarvis, Natalia O. Lassowsky (Ukrainian Linguist/Analyst, NSA), Thomas W. Pucci, Stefanie L. Stagg and Ciaramella.It appears that the “Michael D. Jarvis” who attended the Eric Ciaramella meeting on September 7, 2016 was and still is the Executive Director of the Transparency and Accountability Initiative (TAI) which is funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.

Now according to the Ingraham Angle, Ciaramella is also held a key meeting in the White House in early 2016 covering the Biden family’s actions in the Ukraine.  We also now know he was a key player in the Russia Collusion Hoax.

It’s time to call in Eric Ciaramella and interview him under oath.

Manager Adam Schiff’s Words Ring Hollow, and His Party’s Actions Will Incur Judgment

Last week, on day five of the Senate impeachment debacle, Congressman Adam Schiff gave his concluding remarks to the senators and all present, as well as to millions of viewers all over. In his offensive remarks, he happened to quote Abraham Lincoln’s conclusion of his State of the Union address in 1862. Schiff’s’ preferred portion was this:

Fellow-citizens, we cannot escape history. We of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves. No personal significance, or insignificance, can spare one or another of us. The fiery trial through which we pass, will light us down, in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation.

THIS Should Scare the Hell Out of Every American: Democrats Promise to Persecute Trump Supporters if They Take White House… AND THEY MEAN IT!

Far left Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) unveiled a new campaign plan Tuesday.  She must have come up with this idea while sitting through hours of sham impeachment testimony in the US Senate.

Warren’s plan calls for the creation of a Justice Department task force to investigate and prosecute corruption and immigration “violations” committed by the Trump administration.

Warren threw red meat to her fascist followers.

She is promising to persecute Trump officials.

According to National Review Warren promises to go after the Trump administration.

The Massachusetts senator says she will move to establish a task force to probe whether Trump officials broke any “federal bribery laws, insider trading laws, and other anti-corruption and public integrity laws” during their time in office.

Warren also proposed a DOJ task force to investigate possible violations of law committed in the course of enacting the Trump administration’s immigration agenda.

Democrats in her comment section cheered the plan to get back at Trump officials.

This should scare the hell out of EVERY AMERICAN!
When Democrats threaten tyrannical control over their opponents — THEY MEAN IT!

Democrats — even though they are out of power except for the US House of Representatives — Have been on a mission to DESTROY their opposition since November 9, 2016, the day after the election of President Donald J. Trump.

Democrats illegally spied on Trump, his family, his children, his transition team, his administration since early 2016.

Democrats, with the help of Jeff Sessions, launched a Special Counsel to investigate President Trump and his administration for collusion with Russia despite already knowing this was a debunked conspiracy theory.

Democrats cheered as Paul Manafort was sent to prison for life for his role as Trump campaign manager — when his business partners the Podestas walk free.

Democrats in the Deep State went after Trump officials to ruin them financially.

Democrats went after General Flynn to destroy his reputation, slander his good name, bankrupt him and jail him based on lies.

Democrats charged Republican operative Roger Stone with process crimes in the hope of jailing him until death.

Democrats eliminated prominent conservative voices online and on social media.

Democrats in the tech world eliminated conservative voices on Facebook — eliminated conservative voices on Twitter — eliminated conservative voices on YouTube and Google. This top Trump-supporting website has suffered greatly as a target of the left.

Democrats are starving conservative publishers from advertising dollars.

Democrats are beating Trump supporters in the streets.

And of course, the liberal fake news media is cheering on their violence and hiding their brutality.

When Democrats promise to persecute Trump supporters.
BELIEVE THEM!

Think there isn’t a uniparty ruling class? Exhibit A: John Bolton

Whatever the protestations of John Bolton as to who is leaking what to whom, the fact remains that Bolton has written a ‘tell-all’ book about his experiences as President Trump’s National Security Advisor, with the intent to release the book in the year Trump is running for re-election. 

It’s not easy to engage in behavior that is both petty and despicable at the same time, but Bolton has done it. 

He has made himself into the poster child for an off-the-charts arrogant ruling class that an increasingly large portion of Americans (maybe 63 million and counting?) are absolutely seething about. 

‘We the people’ just can’t seem to penetrate the mindset of the Boltons of the Beltway to explain that we have had enough of their massively out of touch, egotistical act.

Want to hear a little Boltonspeak? If I were to imagine what was in his mind, it would go something like this:

You must understand, my fellow Americans, that Donald J. Trump has no business asserting the Constitutional prerogatives of the Presidency, if to do so is to go against the received wisdom of those of us who have been around this town for decades.  No one has assembled a more sterling Beltway resume than I have.  I am pedigreed and credentialed, and Donald Trump is not, and if he thinks he can disagree with me over matters of foreign policy and even publicly part ways with me in a way that I don’t like without big-time payback, he’s got another think coming.

You rubes of the American heartland:  if we of the ruling class tell you that Joe Biden’s mind-blowingly enormous, in-your-face corruption involving the Ukraine is NOT the issue, and further tell you the real issue is whether Donald Trump dared to even think about exposing it, you need to get your mind right and agree.  Once a credentialed member of the ruling class like Joe Biden even thinks about running for President, the law of the Uniparty ruling class is that any investigation of such corruption is an uppity, immoral, ungrateful interference with the ruling class’ view of a proper election.  Or shall I say, an ‘impeachable offense’ against the Deep State.  So learn your place, you rubes.  I will tell you what impeccable foreign policy wisdom is, and you’re just lucky to have me to explain it.  Stay in your lane, people.  I’m in charge.

There is not enough profanity in the English language to capture the depth of hostility and anger that is rising against the Uniparty ruling class — against Bolton and against the most pompous, sanctimonious empty suit in the history of pompous, sanctimonious empty suits:  Mitt Romney.

Major, major kudos are owed to Fred Fleitz, John Bolton’s former chief of staff, who went public with a calm, considered, emphatic dressing down of his former boss for such unprofessional and harmful-to-the-country behavior.  Fleitz’ action was an act of patriotism, integrity and moral clarity in a Beltway that has very little of any of these.  Would that John Bolton would have a humble moment of reflection and heed Mr. Fleitz’s advice.

Mitch McConnell had better gather the votes to acquit and dismiss this impeachment this week.

Pierre Delecto would like you to know how important he is

On impeachment, Mitt Romney has thrown a spanner in the works. What looked like a speedy scrapping of the Senate impeachment trial of President Trump, premised on Democrats beclowning themselves, is now on hold. Romney says that John Bolton’s “bombshell” about a supposed Ukrainian aid-for-investigation quid pro quo is so significant it merits calling Bolton as a witness in the Senate impeachment trial, just as Democrats have been calling for, though not enough to call him in at the House. 

According to the Associated Press:

WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s Mitt Romney’s big moment, again.

The 2012 Republican presidential nominee has for a year been a freshman senator from Utah. He’s sitting in judgment of the president he has called unfit for office. And he’s defying President Donald Trump by calling for one witness in particular, former national security adviser John Bolton, as the Senate weighs the impeachment allegations against the nation’s 45th president.

The trial is a chance for Romney to wield influence in the Senate as an independent GOP voice — or become one of the Republicans standing by the president when it’s time to be counted.

That Bolton is selling a book and has kept quiet about his allegations until Democrats developed the idea for him, and then gave him the month’s lead time for the leak and front-page publicity from the New York Times during the Senate trial seems to be an acceptable old swamp game to Romney. To the rest of us, that’s a problem, but not to him.

That there’s no penalty for perjury during the Senate trial is another problem, but again, not to him. Lost in this detail is that it’s now a convenient forum for witnesses with axes to grind to lie. (Hat tip: Ed Timperlake)

As a result, Americans now can look forward to a long, long, long extension of speeches and a dragged out impeachment process with Republicans forced into bowing to Democrat demands to do the job they failed to do in the House. The Democrat game of course is to either oust Trump or sufficiently damage him in the election of 2020 ahead of the inauguration of a Democratic president, picture: President Bernie Sanders.

To Romney, the game seems to be getting a message to Trump simply to say that he, too, is important.

Romney seems to be banking on the idea that it all sounds so reasonable, he’s just a guy who wants to get all the facts. Yet  he hasn’t thrown out any Mr. Probity calls for Hunter Biden, Eric Ciaramella or Adam Schiff as witnesses, so it’s not about probity. He just wants to hear from book-selling Bolton, who seems to be a convenient coeval and like-minded resentido. It makes Romney look like a lost soul, viewing the embittered Bolton as a rare ally, a maybe a possible in a future Romney administration.

It’s nothing but a bid to Get Trump, on the Democrats’ terms, an ego trip, from the big wounded ego of Pierre Delecto, no less, and look big and powerful doing it.

Romney seems to be banking on the idea that if he can just knock out Trump and stick to it, he’ll somehow be the big dog on the block.

That’s dubious, given that polls are against him, including this one reported by the Salt Lake Tribune:

Washington • As the Senate weighs Donald Trump’s presidential fate, more Utahns are backing him than ever before and do not want to see him convicted or removed from office, a new poll shows.

The president has never been popular in Utahearning less than half the vote in 2016, but nearly 57% of Utahns now say they support him as the Senate continues the trial on abuse of power and obstruction of Congress allegations based on his dealings with Ukraine. Some 38% of respondents in the state disapprove of his job performance, according to the poll by The Salt Lake Tribune and Suffolk University.

He can’t even win from this, but his big ego is so in need of salving he’s pushing forward with it, thinking he can turn this around with his maneuvers, and hoping he will take down Trump even if he takes himself down, too. He has to know that on some level, and yet, he can’t stop himself. He just has to get that message out that he’s important.

The List: 26 GOP Senators, 97 House Republicans Ask for More Foreign Workers to Fill U.S. Jobs

123 Republicans in the Senate and House are pleading with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Chad Wolf to bring more foreign workers to the United States to compete against working-class Americans for jobs.

In a letter to Wolf, 26 Republican Senators and 97 Republican House members joined 66 Senate and House Democrats in demanding DHS allow businesses to bring an additional roughly 30 foreign workers on the H-2B visa program to take nonagricultural blue-collar U.S. jobs.

Every year, U.S. companies are allowed to import 66,000 low-skilled H-2B foreign workers to take blue-collar, non-agricultural jobs. For some time, the H-2B visa program has been used by businesses to bring in cheaper, foreign workers and has contributed to blue-collar Americans having their wages undercut.

“We urge DHS to release the maximum number of additional visas without delay,” the Senators and House members wrote. “These vital American businesses depend on the expeditious release of a sufficient number of additional visas.”

The 26 GOP Senators who signed the letter include:

  • Sen. Mike Rounds (R-SD)
  • Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC)
  • Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC)

The letter is in contrast to President Donald Trump’s tightening of the labor market, which has secured historic wage hikes for blue-collar and working-class Americans, as Breitbart News reported.

In November, the bottom 25 percent of wage earners saw their wages rise 4.5 percent compared to November 2018. These bottom-tier workers, those earning less than all other Americans, have secured a labor market that now resembles the labor market of top-tier workers — a result of less low-skilled foreign competition against Americans.

The long list of elected Republicans who are asking for more H-2B foreign workers comes as Republican and Democrat Senators Richard Blumenthal, Tom Cotton, Dianne Feinstein, Chuck Grassley, and Dick Durbin have asked DHS not to bring any more foreign workers to the U.S. through the low-skilled visa program.

In 2019, former DHS Secretaries Kirstjen Nielsen and Kevin McAleenan each approved 30,000 additional H-2B foreign visa workers for businesses to bring to the U.S. to take blue-collar jobs — all of which Americans can be recruited to take.

Today, federal employment data reveal that there is no labor shortage of working- and middle-class Americans who want a job. As of December 2019, there are more than 11 million Americans either unemployed, underemployed, or out of the workforce — all of whom want full-time employment.

The H-2B visa program has been widely used by businesses to drag down the wages of American workers in landscaping, conservation work, the meatpacking industry, the construction industry, and fishing jobs, a 2019 study from the Center for Immigration Studies finds.

When comparing the wages of H-2B foreign workers to the national wage average for each blue-collar industry, about 21 out of 25 of the industries offered lower wages to foreign workers than Americans.

In the construction industry, wage suppression is significant, with H-2B foreign workers being offered more than 20 percent less than their American counterparts. In the fishing industry, foreign workers were offered more than 30 percent less for their jobs than Americans in the field. In the meatpacking industry, foreign workers got 23 percent less pay than Americans.

Late last year, the Labor Department banned a South Dakota construction company from using the H-2B visa program after they discovered the employer was importing foreign workers in order to cut labor costs, then forcing those foreign workers to pay for their own housing, visa fees, and transportation costs — all of which are supposed to be covered by H-2B visa employers.

Project Veritas—Bernie Sanders Staffer: ‘After We Abolish Landlords, We Don’t Have to Kill Them’

A Project Veritas video published Tuesday purportedly shows a Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) campaign staffer musing about a ban on private property ownership in the United States as an alternative to mass killings.

A man identified as Mason Baird, a Sanders field organizer in South Carolina, is seen telling a Project Veritas journalist that he believes a “militant labor movement,” working in tandem with a Sanders administration, should “strip power” away from capitalists.

“We would need a federal government and labor union movement that is working together to strip power away from capitalists and preferably directing violence toward property,” the man says. “At the end of the day, this kind of stuff will come out through practice, through the work and it’s hard for me to talk about it in the moment we live in, ’cause I think China today is not what Mao envisioned, right — it was through the practice of Chinese people doing the work to create the China today.

“So, it never – we’re never going – I think a lot of the stuff – a lot of these answers are going to come through practice – we’re going to try things – things aren’t going to work – we’re going to move on to the next thing,” he continues. “And we’re going to try to be as conscious and intentional about those things, but when you get into a certain level of detail, and depth, it’s like, that’s kind of my ‘cop-out’,  it comes through the work, you know. The answers come through the work.”

“It would, it’s gonna take, you know, it’s gonna take militancy, like a militant labor movement that’s willing to strike, and if necessary, you know, just destroy property and things like that,” he adds.

The man then turns his attention to landlords, arguing in favor of sparing their lives after they are eradicated from the system.

“After we abolish landlords, we don’t have to kill them, that’s my feeling. I think it’s damaging to the soul, but there were plenty of excesses in 1917 I would hope to avoid,” Baird says, referencing the Russian Revolution.

The Sanders staffer adds: “Labor, I think that’s a big source of power for us, and just try to gain as much leverage and power in the short time that we have. You know, Lenin didn’t have the Internet, they were a peasant society, and, I mean, it was like, so, you know, I would hope that, like, that we would – we’d have – we’d be doing a bunch of prep work before the capitalists got hip to what we were doing, I guess. I’m not excited about the prospect of armed struggle.”

In another part of the Project Veritas video, another purported Sanders staffer says he believes “plans for extreme action” must be made — even if his candidate becomes president.

“We have all this momentum, where do we go, regardless of the outcome, after it’s all over? Change won’t come easily, regardless. Even if Bernie is elected, change will not come swiftly or easily, so the connections we make now in the campaign with people, and volunteers, it’s important we retain that regardless of the outcome,” says a man identified by Project Veritas as Daniel Taylor, a Sanders field organizer in South Carolina. “It’s unfortunate that we have to make plans for extreme action, but like I said, they’re not going to give it to us even if Bernie is elected.”

Tuesday’s video release is part of an ongoing Project Veritas effort aimed at exposing radical staffers inside 2020 Democratic campaigns.

Project Veritas: Bernie Sanders Staffer Talks ‘Plans for Extreme Action… Even if Bernie Is Elected’

A purported staffer for Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) presidential campaign says “plans for extreme actions” must be made — even if the socialist senator wins the White House in 2020 — according to an undercover video released by Project Veritas on Tuesday.

The video segment begins with an individual identified as Daniel Taylor, a Sanders field organizer in South Carolina, telling a Project Veritas journalist that working on the campaign allows him to partake in “planting a seed,” saying socialism today is more accepted in the U.S. than in the previous election.

“For me personally, I have no problem going all in on the campaign stuff because you’re planting a seed… yeah, the whole socialist thing four years ago was a whole lot more toxic than it is today,” he says.

“We don’t want to scare people off, you first have to feel it out before you get into the crazy stuff…You know we were talking about more extreme organizations like Antifa, you were talking about, Yellow Vests, all that but we’re kinda keeping that on the back-burner for now,” the Sanders staffer continues.

The man then argues that “change won’t come easily” regardless if Sanders becomes president, and therefore, preparations for extreme actions must be made.

“We have all this momentum, where do we go, regardless of the outcome, after it’s all over? Change won’t come easily, regardless. Even if Bernie is elected, change will not come swiftly or easily, so the connections we make now in the campaign with people, and volunteers, it’s important we retain that regardless of the outcome,” he says. It’s unfortunate that we have to make plans for extreme action but like I said, they’re not going to give it to us even if Bernie is elected.”

Tuesday’s video release comes after Project Veritas published a pair of videos exposing purported Sanders organizers expressing violent views. In one recording, Iowa staffer Kyle Jurek warns that Milwaukee, host of this year’s Democratic National Convention, will “burn,” and police will be “beaten” if the Vermont senator loses the nomination. Another recording shows Martin Weissgerber, a field organizer in South Carolina, saying he’s ready for the U.S. to undergo a “revolution” and wants to see the rich guillotined.

To date, all these purported staffers appear to still work for the Sanders campaign, which has not addressed the Veritas investigations in any way.

Trump: Time for Muslim World to Fix Mistake of 1948 By Recognizing Israel

The Muslim world must correct an historic error and finally recognize the Jewish state, President Donald Trump said Tuesday as he unveiled his long-anticipated “deal of the century” for solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. 

“It’s time for the Muslim world to fix the mistake of 1948 and recognize Israel,” Trump said.

Recognition was also one of the conditions for the Palestinians to finally receive their own state under the plan for what Trump called “a realistic two-state solution.”

Israel would have full control of Jerusalem and of settlements, he said, and “Jerusalem will remain Israel’s undivided capital.”

He later added, however, that “eastern Jerusalem” would be the capital of the Palestinian state. The Palestinians would get peripheral neighborhoods in Jerusalem that are already outside the Israeli security fence, namely Kfar Aqab, Abu Dis and some of Shuafat.

The U.S. would “work to create a territory for a contiguous Palestinian state in the future” that would “reject terrorism,” he said.

The flashpoint holy site of the Temple Mount would remain under the current status quo overseen by Jordan’s Islamic Waqf. Israel would continue working with the Jordanians to allow Muslim prayer at the Al Aqsa Mosque.

“This vision for peace is fundamentally different from past diplomacies,” Trump said. “Even the most well-intentioned plans were light on factual details and heavy on conceptual framework.”

He added that the 80-page long plan is “the most detailed proposal ever.”

It would “do a lot for the Palestinians or it just wouldn’t be fair,” he said.

The plan sees borders for a future Palestinian state that would see Israel making “territorial sacrifices for the sake of peace,” he said.

The proposal “more than doubles Palestinian territory,” he said.

“No Palestinians or Israelis will be uprooted from their homes,” he said.

He added that the contiguous Palestinian state would be established such that it “resolves the risk to Israel’s security” and the risk of terror attacks.

“We will never ask Israel to compromise its security,” he said.

Some $50 billion would be infused into the new Palestinian state, he said. His proposal would see an “end the cycle of Palestinian dependence on charity,” Trump said.

Trump said he was “saddened by the fate of the Palestinian people. They deserve a far better life — they deserve a chance to achieve their extraordinary potential.”

“We will be there every step of the way. It will work. If they do it, it’ll work,” he said.
