#Iran’s foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, signaled an openness to resuming talks w/ #US representatives about curtailing its #nuclear development program. And #Trump has been encouraging #JDVance & his Mideast envoy, #SteveWitkoff, to offer to meet the Iranians this week….

“If President Trump is genuine about diplomacy & interested in stopping this war, next steps are consequential,” Mr. Araghchi said in a statement.

Ofcls in #Iran have said explicitly that they blame the #US for the attack, along w/ #Israel. The US is preparing to defend against a potential Iranian retaliation on #UStargets. [how does that signify assistance for a deal?]

#Trump envoy #SteveWitkoff still wants to meet Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Sunday for a planned sixth round of #nuclear talks, a US official said. But the Iranians say they won't participate.

Trump's #stablecoin #USD1 has been issued on Justin Sun's Tron blockchain, AKA "the global organized crime blockchain where ~$70 billion worth of Tether lives”.

All of these factors put together amount to literally a license for Donald Trump to run his own Federal Reserve, printing unbacked dollar equivalents whenever he wants.

What could go wrong?

Palestinian official says Hamas agrees to Gaza proposal, #Israel dismisses it

By #Reuters
May 26, 2025 1:04 PM EDT

"CAIRO, May 26 (Reuters) - A #Palestinian official said on Monday that #Hamas has agreed to a proposal by U.S. special envoy #SteveWitkoff for a #Gaza ceasefire, only for an Israeli official to deny that the proposal was Washington's and add that no #Israeli government could accept it.

Witkoff also rejected the notion that Hamas had accepted his offer for a hostage deal and a ceasefire in Gaza, telling Reuters that what he had seen was "completely unacceptable" and the proposal being discussed was not the same as his."

Max Blumenthal: Iran Suspects Trump Talks as Sabotage
https://consortiumnews.com/2025/05/23/max-blumenthal-iran-suspects-trump-talks-as-sabotage/
After each encouraging exchange, Iranians have watched key Trump negotiators issue bellicose statements to media in Washington, essentially reversing the positions they had taken in Oman. By Max Blumenthal The Grayzone With nuclear negotiations between the Trump administration and Iran’s…

So #SteveWitkoff got in touch with the Qataris to ask about the plane.

…The White House suggested at the time that #Trump’s tour of #Qatar’s plane was intended to put pressure on Boeing to speed its work on its new presidential jets.

#FactCheck #TrumpLies #law #emoluments #corruption #NationalSecurity

A brochure for the aircraft advertised just the kind of opulence #Trump favors. There were “soft fabrics of the highest quality” in the bedroom, along with “luxurious leather & exquisite wood veneers” & a “lavishly designed” bathroom that is “almost a piece of art.”

…#SteveWitkoff, an old friend from Trump’s early days in NY real estate, knew the Qataris well. The country’s sovereign wealth fund had bailed him out in 2023 when a real estate deal on Central Park South went bad.

#TrumpLies #law

The story of how the #Trump admin decided that it would accept a *free* luxury Boeing 747-8 from #Qatar to serve as #AirForceOne involved weeks of secret coordination between Washington & Doha. The #Pentagon & the White House’s military office swung into action, & Trump’s Middle East *envoy*, #SteveWitkoff, played a key role.
