NARCISSIST POS tRUMP CURSES OUT NETANYAHU FOR CONGRATULATING BIDEN ON ELECTION WIN DEC 10, 2021 cbsnews.com Jerusalem — Former President Donald Trump lashed out with profanity at Benjamin Netanyahu for congratulating President Joe Biden on his victory in last year's election, an Israeli newspaper reported Friday. Trump accused the former Israeli leader of disloyalty, saying he had helped Netanyahu in his own elections by reversing decades of U.S. policy and supporting Israel's claims to territory seized in war. Trump is still falsely claiming the U.S. election was stolen from him. In interviews earlier this year with Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, Trump expressed fury at a video Netanyahu circulated online in which he congratulated Mr. Biden. "Nobody did more for Bibi. And I liked Bibi. I still like Bibi," Trump said, referring to Netanyahu by his nickname, in the remarks published by the Yediot Aharonot newspaper. "But I also like loyalty. ... Bibi could have stayed quiet. He has made a terrible mistake." Netanyahu congratulated Mr. Biden more than 12 hours after the election had been called and after most other world leaders. Netanyahu didn't refer to him as president-elect in the tweet, and followed it up with a post praising Trump. Trump appeared to be particularly incensed by a video released by Netanyahu on Jan. 20, the day Mr. Biden was inaugurated, in which Netanyahu said he and Mr. Biden had a "warm personal friendship going back many decades." "I haven't spoken to him since. F-- him," Trump was quoted as saying. Netanyahu was replaced as prime minister last summer after he was unable to form a governing majority in the wake of four hard-fought elections in less than two years. The Trump administration took unprecedented steps to support Israel, including dropping objections to its settlements in the occupied West Bank and recognizing Jerusalem as its capital. After proposing a Mideast plan that was adamantly rejected by the Palestinians, the administration brokered normalization agreements between Israel and four Arab states. Trump said his decision to recognize Israel's annexation of the Golan Heights, which it captured from Syria in the 1967 war, helped Netanyahu ahead of Israeli elections in April 2019. "I did it right before the election, which helped him (Netanyahu) a lot," Trump said. The Trump administration also withdrew from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, to which Israel had been strongly opposed. After he re-imposed U.S. sanctions that had been lifted under the deal, Iran began publicly exceeding the limits it had set on its nuclear program. Mr. Biden is now working with world powers to try to restore the agreement. "I'll tell you what - had I not come along, I think Israel was going to be destroyed," Trump said. "I think Israel would have been destroyed maybe by now."

(Reuters) - Most of the 43 COVID-19 cases caused by the Omicron variant identified in the United States so far were in people who were fully vaccinated, and a third of them had received a booster dose, according to a U.S. report published on Friday. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said that of the 43 cases attributed to Omicron variant, 34 people had been fully vaccinated. Fourteen of them had also received a booster, although five of those cases occurred less than 14 days after the additional shot before full protection kicks in.
