At a #Atlanta rally Sat, #Trump did not mention any of the #American prisoners who were released—incl’g #WSJ reporter #EvanGershkovich, who was imprisoned for >1yr….In previous comments on the deal, he did not mention any of the prisoners by name either,only criticizing the #UnitedStates govt.
“I’d like to congratulate Vladimir #Putin for having made yet another great deal…Boy, we make some horrible, horrible deals. It’s nice to say we got ‘em back, but does that set a bad precedent,”Trump said.

NEWS OF THE DAY:

RUSSIA: EXCHANGE WON'T END #UKRAINE WAR: The complicated, multi-country swap that brought Evan #EvanGershkovich , Paul Whelan, Vladimir Kara-Murza and Alsu Kurmasheva home to the U.S. won't mark the end of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, or a new stance on negotiations.

"Trump, that paragon of self-control, was on Truth Social this week... calling the #Jan6 2021, attack on the Capitol an “inside job” and #Election Day 2020 “the real #insurrection”; proclaiming himself to be what “God has ordained”... and disparaging the deal that secured the release from #Russia of #PaulWhelan, #EvanGershkovich, #VladimirKara-Murza and others: “Our ‘negotiators’ are always an embarrassment to us!"

He appears to be echoing #Trump’s comments from May that only he could free WSJ reporter #EvanGershkovich, claiming that “Vladimir #Putin, President of #Russia, will do that for me, but not for anyone else, & WE WILL BE PAYING NOTHING!”

But this was easily disproved Thurs after the release of the hostages…. #Nationalsecurity adviser #JakeSullivan was asked about #Vance’s claim…,& he dismissed the idea.

“I don’t follow,” Sullivan replied. [best reply to a Trump &/or #JDVance quote ever]
