Krasnov: ''we're very close to a deal [on Gaza]...and they're going to need me pretty quickly'

Rubio: “You need to approve a Truth Social post soon so you can announce deal first,”

Note that Rubio hands Trump says Gaza deal is 'very close' and requests approval for a social media announcement

The Associated Press is reporting that the note Marco Rubio just handed Donald Trump appeared to say that a deal was “very close”, along with a request for Trump to give his OK to a social post related to a Gaza deal.

“Very close,” the note says underlined in a photograph captured by Associated Press photographer Evan Vucci. “You need to approve a Truth Social post soon so you can announce deal first,” the hand-scrawled note on White House stationery continues.

A senior White House official has told CNN we can expect a post on Truth Social soon from the US president.

Even if “real” let’s see how long this deal lasts. I bet two weeks.
