Trump will Netanjahu vollständig begnadigen

Da Benjamin Netanjahu in drei verschiedenen Korruptionsfällen wegen Betrugs, Bestechung und Untreue angeklagt ist, hat Donald Trump versucht, das Verfahren zu beeinflussen, indem er Israels Staatspräsident Isaac Herzog aufforderte, ihn zu begnadigen.

« Ich fordere Sie hiermit auf, Benjamin Netanjahu vollständig zu begnadigen »

-Donald Trump

Ein langwieriger Korruptionsprozess

Trump, der Netanjahu als « Premierminister im Krieg » bezeichnete, schrieb: « Ich glaube, dass der ‘Fall’ gegen Bibi, der lange Zeit an meiner Seite gekämpft hat, auch gegen den sehr harten Gegner Israels, den Iran, eine politische, ungerechtfertigte Verfolgung ist ».

In Netanjahus langwierigem Korruptionsprozess, der seit 2020 läuft, geht es um Vorwürfe von Betrug, Bestechung und Untreue.

Sein Prozess wurde im Laufe der Jahre immer wieder unterbrochen und verzögert, zunächst durch Störungen im Zusammenhang mit Covid, dann durch politische Unruhen, den Krieg, wiederholte Anträge und Terminprobleme im Zusammenhang mit dem Terminkalender des Premierministers, wobei die meisten Verschiebungsanträge von Netanjahu selbst kamen.

Premierminister in Kriegszeiten

Trump eröffnete seinen Brief, indem er den Moment als historisch lobte und schrieb: « Es ist mir eine Ehre, Ihnen zu diesem historischen Zeitpunkt zu schreiben, da wir gemeinsam den Frieden gesichert haben, nach dem seit mindestens 3.000 Jahren gesucht wird. »

In einem Brief, der vom Sprecher des israelischen Präsidenten verteilt wurde, erklärte Trump, dass « ich Sie hiermit auffordere, Benjamin Netanjahu vollständig zu begnadigen », und beschrieb ihn als jemanden, « der ein beeindruckender und entschlossener Premierminister in Kriegszeiten war », und versicherte, dass er « Israel jetzt in eine Zeit des Friedens führt »

« Es ist an der Zeit, Bibi Israel zu vereinen, indem wir ihn begnadigen. »

-Donald Trump

Unter Berufung auf ihre persönliche Beziehung schrieb Trump: « Isaac, wir haben eine großartige Beziehung aufgebaut, für die ich sehr dankbar bin und die mich sehr ehrt, und wir waren uns gleich nach meiner Amtseinführung im Januar einig, dass wir uns darauf konzentrieren müssen, die Geiseln endlich nach Hause zu bringen und das Friedensabkommen zu schließen. »

Zum Abschluss seines Appells schrieb Trump: « Jetzt, wo wir diese beispiellosen Erfolge erzielt haben und die Hamas in Schach halten, ist es an der Zeit, Bibi zu erlauben, Israel zu vereinen, indem wir ihn begnadigen und den Rechtsstreit ein für alle Mal beenden », wobei er die Begnadigung sowohl als Belohnung für Israels jüngste Erfolge als auch als Schritt zur nationalen Einheit darstellte.

Rasche Reaktionen in Israel

Bei seinem letzten Besuch in Israel soll Donald Trump den israelischen Präsidenten gefragt haben: « Warum begnadigen Sie ihn nicht? ».

Er hat diesen Wunsch nun in einem Brief formell gemacht, in dem er Netanjahu um eine Begnadigung bittet, ein Schritt, der laut CNN rasche Reaktionen in Israels politischem Umfeld hervorrief: Der Minister für Nationale Sicherheit Itamar Ben-Gvir unterstützte die Idee auf X, nannte die Anklage « schändlich » und forderte Herzog auf, « auf Präsident Trump zu hören », während Oppositionsführer Yair Lapid mit einer juristischen Mahnung konterte: « Eine Erinnerung: Das israelische Recht schreibt eindeutig vor, dass die erste Bedingung für eine Begnadigung durch den Präsidenten das Eingeständnis der Schuld und der Ausdruck von Reue ist. »

Trump: US needs immigrant because Americans don’t have the skills

In what might be the face-palm moment of his second term, Donald Trump just said America needs immigrants, and that American workers are not skilled, specifically those “in unemployment lines.”

Yes, that’s right, after more than half a decade of anti-immigrant rhetoric, and a Gestapo-like force in ICE, quite literally disappearing legal immigrants, Donald Trump just told American workers they aren’t enough to get the job done.

In an interview with FOX News that aired on Tuesday, Donald Trump said that the United States doesn’t have workers with “certain talents,” and offered his support for the H1-B skilled worker visa program.

Comments on Fox

Trump was pressed by Fox’s Laura Ingraham on whether he would reduce the H1-B program, and Trump responded with “you also do have to bring in talent.”

Ingraham tried insisting that the United States had talented workers, but Trump shut her down.

“No, you don’t, no, you don’t … you don’t have certain talents, and people have to learn. You can’t take people off an unemployment line and say, ‘I’m going to put you into a factory where we’re going to make missiles.’”

The president then strangely brought up the Hyundai plant fiasco that resulted in hundreds of legal South Korean workers being traumatically deported.

“In Georgia, they raided because they wanted illegal immigrants out — they had people from South Korea that made batteries all their life. You know, making batteries is very complicated. It’s not an easy thing. Very dangerous, a lot of explosions, a lot of problems. They had like 500 or 600 people, early stages, to make batteries and to teach people how to do it. Well, they wanted them to get out of the country. You’re going to need that, Laura.”

Why the president would want to bring up an incident that could have only arisen due to administrative incompetence clearly surprised Ingraham, two weeks ago, Trump insisted that he was “very much opposed” to the raid on the Hyundai factory, leading many to wonder why it then happened.

H1-B Visa

In September, Trump signed an executive order to install a $100,000 application fee on the H1-B in an attempt to limit the number of people able to take advantage.

It was another example in a long line of orders cracking down on immigration, in this case, allowing the government control over the intake.

The H1-B is a three-year visa for skilled workers. It can be renewed once, with workers receiving an additional three years. The $100,000 fee allows Trump to control the intake of workers. By partnering with corporations and labour companies, Trump can now personally staff projects using international skilled workers while hindering individuals from successfully applying.

The vast majority of H1-B recipients are skilled workers from India.

MAGA response

The comments have struck Republican politicians with confusion. On the one hand, Trump is right, the U.S. does need international skilled workers. And by taking a looser stance on immigration, the GOP can start to appeal to the moderates. The problem? Anti-immigration has been the GOP’s identity for so long that the party is rudderless without it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene has been the only major name to comment. Greene has a mixed bag when it comes to her resume with Trump. She was one of his staunchest supporters in the early years, but has been separated from DJT on the Epstein issue and the government shutdown.

Greene tweeted that “I believe you are good, talented, creative, intelligent, hard working, and want to achieve, I am solidly against you being replaced by foreign labor, like with H1Bs.”

She chose the third option, to come out against Trump, and reiterate right-wing talking points.

Some say this could be a ‘gotcha’ moment for Trump and his policies, but it’s more than likely the news cycle will move on before his voter base lets this sink in.

Los estadounidenses culpan ahora a Trump más que a Biden de la crisis de asequibilidad

Mientras Trump sigue clamando « estafa de los demócratas » para explicar la preocupación pública por la economía y la asequibilidad desde su regreso al Despacho Oval, la CNN informa de que los estadounidenses le sitúan ahora a la cabeza de la lista de culpables de la situación económica del país.

In his most dismissive remarks on the topic to date, Trump ratcheted up his downplaying of Americans’ affordability concerns in a Fox News interview on Monday. He even called them a “con job by Democrats” and said the “polls are fake.” | Analysis

CNN (@cnn.com) 2025-11-12T05:01:01.612334393Z

En una entrevista en Fox News, Trump se apresuró a acusar a los demócratas de fabricar la crisis, pero ahora se enfrenta a un claro cambio en la percepción pública: más votantes le ven como responsable del estado de la economía que a Biden.

La negación de Trump

Mientras que Biden a menudo restó importancia al problema de la inflación durante su presidencia, la negación de Trump va incluso más allá: insiste en que todo es perfecto bajo su liderazgo.

« La economía es tan fuerte como nunca lo ha sido »

-Donald Trump

El público, sin embargo, no está de acuerdo. La mayoría de los estadounidenses ahora responsabilizan a Trump de la crisis de asequibilidad en curso, incluso cuando él desestima las encuestas sobre la ansiedad económica como « falsas ».

Una carga política más pesada

Hablando sobre el estado de la economía con Laura Ingraham en Fox News, Trump dijo: « La economía es tan fuerte como nunca lo ha sido », y luego rechazó la pregunta de Ingraham sobre la ansiedad pública diciendo: « No sé si dicen eso. Las encuestas son falsas. Tenemos la mejor economía que hemos tenido nunca »

Trump insistió en el punto, diciendo: « Más que cualquier otra cosa, es una estafa de los demócratas. »

Getty Images

Según la CNN, aunque los indicadores principales no sean claramente peores que con Biden, la política sí lo es: la economía se ha convertido en una carga política más pesada para Trump.

En encuestas recientes, el 61% dice que las políticas de Trump han empeorado las condiciones económicas, el 60% le culpa de la inflación y la mayoría espera que sus aranceles aumenten los precios.

La pieza central de su campaña de reelección

Por una vez, la narrativa se escapa del control de Trump: las encuestas pintan ahora un panorama que no puede hilar fino. Una encuesta de CNN/SSRS muestra que el 61% dice que sus políticas han empeorado las condiciones económicas; un sondeo de Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos revela que el 59% le culpa al menos en buena medida de la inflación; y los datos de CBS/YouGov muestran que la mayoría de los estadounidenses piensan que se ha centrado demasiado en aranceles que subirán los precios en lugar de en bajar los costes.

Trump ha hecho de la economía la pieza central de su campaña de reelección, presentándose como el único capaz de restaurar la prosperidad.

Getty Images

Sus mítines y anuncios se centran en gran medida en la inflación, el empleo y el comercio, enmarcando la asequibilidad como la prueba definitiva de su liderazgo, incluso cuando las encuestas muestran que la confianza del público está cayendo.

Trump wants a full pardon for Netanyahu

As Benjamin Netanyahu faces charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust in three separate corruption cases, Donald Trump has stepped in to try to influence the process by urging Israel’s president, Isaac Herzog, to pardon him.

«I hereby call on you to fully pardon Benjamin Netanyahu»

-Donald Trump

A long-running corruption trial

Trump, describing Netanyahu as a «war Time Prime Minister», wrote that «I believe that the ‘case’ against Bibi, who has fought alongside me for a long time, including against the very tough adversary of Israel, Iran, is a political, unjustified prosecution».

Netanyahu’s long-running corruption trial, which has been ongoing since 2020, centers on charges of fraud, bribery and breach of trust.

«It is my honor to write to you at this historic time, as we have, together, just secured peace that has been sought for at least 3,000 years.»

Getty Images

His trial has been repeatedly broken up and delayed over the years, first by Covid-related disruptions and then by political turmoil, the war, repeated motions and scheduling issues linked to the prime minister’s calendar, with most of the postponement requests coming from Netanyahu himself.

«Isaac, we have established a great relationship, one that I am very thankful for and honored.»

War Time Prime Minister

Trump opened his letter by praising the moment as historic, writing: «It is my honor to write to you at this historic time, as we have, together, just secured peace that has been sought for at least 3,000 years.»

Getty Images

In a letter distributed by the Israeli president’s spokesperson, Trump declared that «I hereby call on you to fully pardon Benjamin Netanyahu», describing him as someone «who has been a formidable and decisive War Time Prime Minister» and asserting that he «is now leading Israel into a time of peace.»

«It is time to let Bibi unite Israel by pardoning him.»

-Donald Trump

Appealing to their personal rapport, Trump wrote: «Isaac, we have established a great relationship, one that I am very thankful for and honored by, and we agreed as soon as I was inaugurated in January that the focus had to be centered on finally bringing the hostages home and getting the peace agreement done.»

Getty Images

Concluding his appeal, Trump wrote that «Now that we have achieved these unprecedented successes, and are keeping Hamas in check, it is time to let Bibi unite Israel by pardoning him, and ending that lawfare once and for all», presenting the pardon as both a reward for Israel’s recent victories and a step toward national unity.

Swift reactions across Israel

During his last visit to Israel, Donald Trump reportedly asked the Israeli president «why don’t you give him a pardon?».

Getty Images

He has now formalized that wish in a letter requesting a pardon for Netanyahu, a move that, according to CNN, drew swift reactions across Israel’s political sphere: National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir backed the idea on X, calling the indictment «disgraceful» and urging Herzog to «listen to President Trump», while Opposition Leader Yair Lapid countered with a legal reminder: «A reminder: Israeli law clearly stipulates that the first condition for a presidential pardon is admitting guilt and expressing remorse.»
