NEW: The Trump admin is airing *another* taxpayer-funded political ad, & this time, it's from his 2024 campaign. Trump says in the ad: "We will demolish the deep state, expel the warmongers from our government... We will rout the fake news media..."

Bin Laden watches the television coverage of the 9/11 attacks (From “The Looming Tower” by Lawrence Wright)

getting a signal from the satellite. One of the men cupped the dish in his hands, aiming it toward the sky, but he found only static.
Finally, someone tuned a radio to the BBC Arabic service. A newscaster was finishing a report when he said there was breaking news: A plane had struck the World Trade Center in New York!
The members of al-Qaeda, thinking that was the only action, cried in joy and prostrated themselves. But bin Laden said, "Wait, wait."
Ali Soufan and a handful of other agents were in the American Embassy in Yemen. Barbara Bodine had been rotated out of the country and the new ambassador had not yet arrived. Soufan was talking to his fiancée on the phone when she told him that the Trade Center had been attacked. He asked permission of the deputy chief of mission to enter the ambassador's office to turn on the TV. Just as he did, the second plane hit.
Valerie James was arranging flowers in her office when "the phones started ringing off the hook." It was a little after nine in the morning. Her children were calling her in a panic. Finally, O'Neill called. "Honey, I want you to know I'm okay. My God, Val, it's terrible. There are body parts everywhere. Are you cry-ing?" She was. He asked if she knew what had hit the building.
She told him that her son had guessed it was a 747. Then he said,
"Val, I think my employers are dead. I can't lose this job."
"They're going to need you more than ever," she told him.
In Afghanistan, bin Laden also wept and prayed. The accomplishment of striking the two towers was an overwhelming signal of God's favor, but there was more to come. Before his incredulous companions, bin Laden held up three fingers.

handkerchief, only a smudge of ash on his back indicating that the bottom had fallen out of his world. O'Neill asked Wong if there was any information he could divulge, acknowledging the fact that he was now an outsider and not privy to such details. "Is it true the Pentagon has been hit?" he asked. "Gee, John, I don't know," said Wong. "Let me try to find out." But then O'Neill had trouble with the reception on his cell phone and started walking away. He said, "I'll catch up with you later." Wong last saw O'Neill walking toward the tunnel leading to the south tower.
At 9:38 a.m., the third plane had crashed into the headquarters of American military power and the symbol of its might. When news came of the Pentagon strike, bin Laden held up four fingers to his wonder-struck followers, but the final strike, on the U.S.
Capitol, would fail.

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."

In case it wasn't clear, here is economist Francisco Rodríguez saying that this "deal" will only generate tax value for Venezuela that represents 4.7% of the sale price. That's less than half the royalty rate it received when US friendly dictator (Juan Vicente Gómez) sold out to US oil companies.

Text reads: President: according to your figures, this agreement will generate tax revenues of just $3.22 per barrel of Venezuelan oil. This represents 4.7% of the current price, and less than half of the royalty rate contemplated in concessions granted by Juan Vicente Gómez.

Interesting primary source on this. From the diary of C. L. Sulzberger, famous foreign correspondent. He records his own reservations about enlisting the Soviets in the war against Japan while also documenting that Averell Harriman, the US ambassador to the Soviet Union, was adamant about it

Exactly. What is result of an Eisenkot or a Bennett or a Lapid or a Golan or a Gantz government? All of them will continue the longest military occupation in all of postwar (1945-onward) history, all will accelerate settlement and colonization, all will strangle Gaza, occupy Syria and Lebanon, etc.
