Jon Polin and Rachel Goldberg-Polin, parents of murdered hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin, recorded this message for President Trump and Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff: "You have shown that you are the only ones who have been able to get this situation moving. Our plea to you right now is - now that you've done the hard part of getting movement, getting a deal started, let's not think about phase one and phase two and phase three and many months. Let's think bigger and faster. All 76 hostages out this week. End of war."

“Today we are witness to the urgency to secure the release of the hostages, especially today after the release of the 3 hostages that was in very bad medical condition.” - The family of a current hostage tells me, hoping to address @realDonaldTrump, @SteveWitkoff and @aboehler.

Grateful for the Trump Administration’s clear calls to bring @Princeton student Elizabeth Tsurkov home from her Iran-backed abduction in Iraq IMMEDIATELY. The Iraqi government is expressly complicit in her lack of release. Elizabeth’s kidnapping by Kata'ib Hezbollah is yet another alarming example of the Islamic Republic of Iran's ongoing use of hostage-taking as a tool of foreign diplomacy. This is part of a calculated effort to silence those working to expose the regime's abuses. Princeton University's lack of PUBLIC action in advocating for Tsurkov's safety raises serious concerns about its priorities, particularly given the institution's continued employment of Seyed Hossein Mousavian, a former Iranian diplomat closely tied to the regime. Mousavian’s lack of collaboration in securing the release of Princeton-affiliated hostages underscores the problematic nature of his position at the university. Institutions like Princeton must take a firm stance against the Islamic Republic and its proxies’ policies of transnational repression and hostage “diplomacy.” @aboehler and the Administration are right to threaten hostile Iranian and Iraqi forces.

Honoured to attend the National Prayer Breakfast with other hostage families, closing out a week of advocacy in D.C. Thank you, @POTUS Trump, for the tremendous support you showed us and for your commitment not to rest until the last hostage is freed. @SteveWitkoff, @aboehler

Gaza MUST BE FREE from Hamas. As @POTUS shared today, the United States stands ready to lead and Make Gaza Beautiful Again. Our pursuit is one of lasting peace in the region for all people.

It's been 687 days since my sister @Elizrael, a Princeton student, was kidnapped in Baghdad. 687 days of incompetence and inaction by the Iraqi PM @IraqiPMO. The Biden administration kept showering the corrupt Iraqi officials with hundreds of millions of our taxpayer dollars with no accountability. Thank God a tough leader with a backbone of steel (@realDonaldTrump) is in the White House and is done playing games. Mr. President, only you can bring my sister home! @SecRubio @michaelgwaltz @aboehler @StateSPEHA @Eve_Barlow @IraqinUSA @amanpour @ElizHagedorn @jayobtv @etuckerAP @joseffederman @VicCNN @margbrennan @IAmAmnaNawaz @jaketapper @jmhansler @wolfblitzer @megynkelly @GillianHTurner @FoxNews @RepJoeWilson @SenatorShaheen @SenatorAndyKim @CoryBooker @SenatorRisch

Today on Tel Aviv's main highway 🇺🇲🇮🇱

The art of the peace: this Gaza deal looks amazing. You’d never get this bold, creative thinking from the old establishment on either side. But it’s quintessentially American. Lots of fun to watch Trump Admin 2 work. Making the world great while making America great again.
