“God bless Keith Seigel,” she tweets.
Meanwhile, Channel 12 reports that GOP mega-donor Miriam Adelson met this week with Trump and his Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff.
Adelson has reportedly been instrumental in ensuring that the hostages’ plight remains at the top of Trump’s agenda.
Channel 12 also reports that during his meeting with the four female hostages released last month, Witkoff told them that he would organize a visit for them to the White House when they feel up to it.
God Bless Keith Siegel. https://t.co/Gtao342iFj
