Ho lee Sheet.

He is either such a simpleton that he has no grasp of even the most simple geopolitics, or he is in denial that he he made a bad call due to being coerced by someone with something to gain from US troops withdrawing.

When is the US people and more importantly, the GOP wake up?

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a measure Wednesday that would allow the state to pursue charges against people who have received a presidential pardon — a law seen as a direct shot at President Donald Trump.

Multiple ex-Trump aides or associates are imprisoned or facing legal scrutiny in New York.

The president, whose business and campaign are both headquartered in New York, also is facing numerous federal, state and congressional investigations related to his administration, campaign and business dealings.

Fiona Hill told impeachment investigators she viewed Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the E.U., as a potential national security risk because he was so unprepared for his job, according to two people familiar with her testimony.

Moscow Mitch is up to something...

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told Senate Republicans on Wednesday that he expects Speaker Nancy Pelosi to approve articles of impeachment as early as Thanksgiving, according to five people familiar with Wednesday’s party lunch. McConnell then surmised that the Senate could deal with the trial by Christmas, concluding the impeachment proceedings before the Democratic presidential primaries begin.

He actually claimed that America’s relationship with Italy goes back “thousands of years.”

Didnt you know Julius Caesar landed in New York in 54BC (just after invading Britain)
Hence the "Little Italy" district in NYC, built over the old Roman coliseum

The us just bombed its ex base

Remarkable day in Syria: The US military carried out airstrikes to destroy the headquarters for its counter-ISIS campaign after Turkish backed forces closed in on the base. US military says it is carrying out "deliberate withdrawal."

Will it make any difference?

At least it's nice to see Republicans voting against him for once.

The madness is relentless now.

That's what passes for American international diplomacy now is it?

My 10 year old nephew could've drafted a more professional letter.

He's making an effort, which should be applauded.

But... Unfortunately, he uses the language of a 12 year old bully in the playground. Such lack of self awareness. Why on earth didn't he seek advice?

Cretin.

Intimating publically to a Turkish male that he’s a fool will usually end badly.

Just to ensure absence of doubt, that letter is not a spoof of any kind?

ETA as I posted that, so the news screen next to me in the lobby showed this on the ABC...



So the ‘fake media’ are running with it

White House confirmed its real. So spoke to Erdogan two days previous and confirmed the US would remove troops, then wrote the letter condemning Turkey, who then just ignored it.

Why release the letter? And did no-one think to rewrite it?

Smells like a cooperation agreement to me.
