U.S. signs civilian nuclear cooperation deal with Saudi Arabia
THREAD: Join me on a trip down memory lane given the news that Trump has inked a nuclear deal with the Saudis (in the middle of a war he started to end nuclear proliferation in the Middle East.) Who remembers The Middle East Marshall Plan from Trump 1.0? 1/ www.wsj.com/world/middle...
One of Mike Flynn's goals with Trump as president in 2016 was to build nuclear reactors in Saudi Arabia and have Eric Prince supply private armies to guard them in an effort to "re-colonize the Middle East. It was called the Middle East Marshall Plan. 2/
Most of the 9-11 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia, and the Saudis killed and dismembered a WAPO reporter, but hey - they said something nice to Trump.
Jesus Christ this is what the whole Flynn / Russia / back channel / collusion / Egypt loan was all about. This is insane.
Never Forget 09/11/2001. MBS’s half brother orchestrated the attack. Imagine if the Saudi Royal Family had nukes that day instead of our commercial airplanes? This is beyond shameful, it is treason against the people of The United States of America! How is this not the day’s headline?
So in a partnership with the people that hit us 911 got it👍👍👍 I’m sorry I still remember how it smelled on 9/11 I still remember watching people jump out of a fucking building rather than be burned to death but OK I guess never forget turned into never mind.
Saudis give me money. Ok for nukes. Iran doesn’t give me money. Not ok for nukes. American foreign policy in a nutshell.
I can't even keep up....
CNN: “President Trump has approved a nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia that could lead to the kingdom enriching its own fuel for civilian reactors without adopting the “gold standard” of international oversight, according to two US officials and a source familiar with the matter.” What could go wrong?
and Congress has nothing to say....
Absolutely incomprehensible. How is this in US interest?
The next 9/11 carried out by Saudi extremists will have radioactive fallout.
my . . sarcasm must be unleashed . . . . . . i just *love* that this turd of a pretend president took a gift from the country that funded 911, and i love even more that he is making deals with the country that provided the majority of the terrorists who coordinated 911 . . ah . . good times
What was Trump’s kickback I wonder?
and what is it the U.S. presumably gets in return? These unwritten vague deals are a Trump trademar.

Please read the brief - pls don’t reduce it to a headline 🙏
All they have to do is buy his bitcoin and give him a fake peace prize. Jeezus.
This is the deal that Michael Flynn was trying to make on inauguration day 2017. To simplify it: He was trying to use American plans, Russian parts, and Erik Prince was going to supply security. It was scandalous at the time, but $2B to Kushner finally got it cleared. This is bad.
The United States is so ass backwards. .
So the Saudi Royal Mafia is going to have nukes. What could go wrong?
Nothing says "harbinger of peace" more than giving nukes to a absolute monarchy that financed the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack resulting in 2,977 deaths — the single largest loss of life from a foreign attack on U.S. soil. youtu.be/GaQyWsuv72I #resist
The agreement gives American companies priority access to nuclear reactors and fuel to Saudi Arabia. It's expected to last decades and be worth billions of dollars. n.pr/4bHQPPp
"Worth billions of dollars." To whom?
Nuclear is expensive. Solar is cheap. Nuclear takes years. Solar can be up and running tomorrow. Nuclear takes constant maintenance. You have to clean Solar. Nuclear take a team of 20 (?), around the clock. You can graze sheep under a solar array. Saudi Arabia has sunshine aplenty and land fit for
Fuck all of you how dare you decide to work with the people who hit us on 9/11 I still remember people jumping from building so they wouldn’t burn to death I remember how it smelled I guess never forget has turned into never mind
for a country where they could have 100% free electricity from the sun
Super. Let's bomb the crap out of Iran because they want enriched uranium but let's give enriched uranium to the country that produced most of the 9/11 terrorists instead.
We're supposedly fighting a war to keep Iran from getting nukes while handing nuclear material to Prince Bone Saw
US announces nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia that could enable kingdom to enrich uranium – US politics live
15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudis None of them were from Iran
sure why not, it's not like anyone from SA was involved in 9/11 or anything
Great idea, that'll come in super handy next time they decide to attack america
The CIA concluded that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) ordered the assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Istanbul (2018). No Justice
The country that brought us 9-11 gets nukes. Ok
what could possibly go wrong…
Breaking news: The Trump administration signed an agreement with Saudi Arabia that gives the country a pathway to enrich nuclear fuel and commits it to using U.S. firms to supply its reactors. Congress has 90 days to act on the deal.
Good think nobody from Saudi Arabia has ever attacked the US. Oh, wait...
Not a good deal for America especially as a super power. Good deal for trump the treasoning thief, though.
Is this what MAGA voted for?
Yeah this should really help defuse regional tensions
Smoke 'em if ya got 'em.
So the next 9/11 can include a dirty bomb component? Freaking Wonderful. 🙄
Every time I read this headline, I smack my forehead. So many things are wrong with so many things. And MAGA/Trump are the reason.
Imagine seeing this headline 20 years ago. And just in case anyone forgot ("Never Forget"), fifteen of the nineteen hijackers responsible for the September 11th attacks were Saudi nationals. Now they will have the means to produce nuclear weapons.
There is no bottom. He just keeps doing worse and worse things. In total, I wonder how much money the House of Saud has given to the House of Trump.
¿Qué puede salir mal? ¿QUÉ PUEDE SALIR MAL?
look, you can't expect the 80 yr old degenerate dunce to remember 9/11 it's not like he's a New Yorker or anything....
Agreements with the US are not worth the paper they're printed on. The Paris Agreement, Iran nuclear deal, CUSMA, the Gordie Howe bridge deal — a signature from a US president is literally less binding now than a thumbs up emoji.
Full truth @cnn.com @schiff.senate.gov @slotkin.senate.gov #uspoli #cdnpoli
Exactly this👇🏻. Any world leader who signs a deal with the United States under Tr*mp and imagines for one second that he'll honor it if it turns the least bit unfavourable for him, or if he thinks he can use the threat of breaking it as leverage, is a fool. (Disclosure: I'm Canadian.)
