I spoke to Trump after I interviewed Zelensky, and he told me that he liked Zelensky very much, but he also told me that he likes Putin.
He says he gets along with both. But, yeah, I do have plans to go and have a meeting with Trump.

FULL INTERVIEW
This military censorship of Hollywood is well documented in Roger Stahl's film "Theaters of War."
He went into the archives & found the scripts - marked up with the military's blue pen.
He also found the wall of films that never got made - because those directors & producers refused to submit to censorship & couldn't turn a profit without military access.
It didn't need to be called censorship. If the studio wouldn't comply, the film simply wasn't made.
The most profitable blockbusters were shaped by this process - eventually extending beyond war films to movies where the military battled aliens with ultra-weapons.
Some scripts toward the end began to push back slightly. But the censorship process throughout was systematic & well documented.

U.S. officials should say, "Fuck the Russians," and they should come to Kyiv.
If I can come here and survive, why would Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff not come?

A senior US official warned that Trump would be โvery disappointedโ if Israel blocked the implementation of his Gaza reconstruction plan after Hamas accepted a US-backed disarmament proposal.
The warning came after Netanyahu's office rejected the framework as insufficient, insisting it did not meet Israel's demand for Gaza's full demilitarization.

We are only beginning to understand what war actually is. Not excitement, not heroism, not victory - but suffering & death.
There was no way to hide that in Gaza with journalists on ground. That is why Israel killed almost 300 journalists in Gaza & Lebanon.
US media barely reported their deaths - and never told the American public that they were barred from Gaza unless embedded with the invading army.
Reporting those deaths would have undermined the mainstream narrative entirely.
There's also simple racism - a racial & class hierarchy in Western newsrooms that did not consider Palestinian journalists their equals.

Look, if I was president of the United States and Russia was supplying Iran with weapons, I would kill Vladimir Putin.
Obviously, I don't speak for the president. I'm not saying Donald Trump should kill Vladimir Putin.

FULL INTERVIEW
The US once believed in freedom of press - even exporting it & working to protect journalists globally. Trump's media rhetoric is unprecedented in that context.
But the US is now a war-based economy. Forever wars, one after another, driven by a military-industrial complex now unified with media.
The US military is effectively an imperial power - the strongest in the world. Denizens of an empire do not have the same rights as citizens of a democracy.
As authoritarianism rises, the connection b/n military power & censorship becomes more obvious. That's happening across the West.

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir:
The draft agreement published by the "Peace Council" is not acceptable to Israel.
After the October 7 massacre, the blood of every Hamas man is forfeitโand therefore, a commitment to cease the eliminations of the terrorist organization's murderers is tantamount to consenting for Hamas to regroup toward the next massacre.
The targeted killings in Gaza must continue, encouraging emigration must happen, Israel must win.

Hamas was framed as the worst terrorists on earth - justifying anything Israel did in response.
Palestinians were dehumanized by extension. Israeli officials called them animals, subhuman, promised to turn Gaza into a tent city.
These statements constitute incitement to genocide but Western media did not push back. Not once.
Israeli victims were shown in full humanity - photos, families, jobs. Palestinians were body counts.
Even those counts were undermined - "according to the Hamas-directed Gaza Health Ministry" - casting doubt on Palestinian deaths.
Palestinians were locked out of the dialogue entirely. That dehumanization continues to this day.

FULL INTERVIEW
Four decades of corporate monopoly over American media can be traced to a simple shift in regulation.
The FCC once required media companies to serve their communities & hold onto outlets for at least 2 years before selling.
The 1996 Telecommunications Act opened the floodgates - allowing the first wave of mass consolidation, gobbling up radio stations & local media across the country.
The promise at first was lower prices & a more equal playing field.
Most Americans weren't paying attention to media regulation bills. And corporations were busy crafting narratives to sell deregulation to the public.
The result: increasingly concentrated ownership producing increasingly narrow narratives - presented as the natural status quo.

WATCH: Terrified Ceuta woman pleads for troops โWeโre aloneโ:
We need the military on the streets. They are not here.
We are alone.
We cannot call the police or the Civil Guard because they are overwhelmed.
We need urgent help. I am surrounded. I am scared.
How could I not be scared? I am shaking. This is an invasion.
It started in Ceuta, but this is Spainโs border, Europeโs border.
Today it was Melilla, tomorrow it will be the Canary Islands, then Tarifa. This is unacceptable.

States have already had to fill the gap themselves, spending more on cybersecurity while warning that federal support and nationwide threat intelligence are too late and too limited.

The New York Times is one of the worst propagators of pro-Israel media framing - yet it maintains credibility through a subtle technique.
They use vague language. "Hamas said this, Israel said that" - never framed within international law, never calling Israeli actions war crimes.
NYT editors told journalists they couldn't use words like refugee camp, occupation, anything that would expose what Israel is actually doing.
And every now and then, a major exposรฉ breaks through as a "balancing act".
That's exactly how the monolithic narrative is protected. One piece of truth, used to hide the overwhelming pattern of propaganda.

Israel has been compelling big tech to censor Palestinian content for years.
Facebook has removed Palestinian websites at Israel's behest. Ex-CIA & ex-FBI officials have been hired to monitor Meta.
X under Elon Musk is no longer the relatively open platform it once was.
Independent journalists are under direct attack. Max Blumenthal of the Gray Zone had all his equipment confiscated upon returning to the US.
Ali Abunimah of Electronic Intifada faced the same treatment, while the same is happening in the UK.
Some spaces remain - Substack, even LinkedIn still have vestiges of free expression. But it is a battlefield.
