Sure, Democracy Now! is far left, but it’s the author who is doing most of the talking.
“The Fort Bragg Cartel”: Book Exposes U.S. Special Forces’ Involvement in Drug Trafficking & Murder (26:23)
Democracy Now!
14 Aug 2025
As President Trump threatens to use U.S. special forces against drug cartels abroad, a new book, The Fort Bragg Cartel: Drug Trafficking and Murder in the Special Forces, reveals some of the most secretive and elite special forces in the Army are heavily involved in narcotrafficking themselves. “There’s at least 14 cases that I’m tracking of Fort Bragg-trained soldiers who have been either arrested, apprehended or killed in the course of trafficking drugs in the last five years or so,” says author Seth Harp. The book also looks at “how U.S. military intervention often stimulates drug production,” including in Afghanistan, which he says became the biggest narco-state in the world during the 20-year U.S. occupation. “Most of the drug trafficking and drug production was being carried out and done by warlords, police chiefs, militia commanders, who were on the U.S. payroll in a corrupt structure,” says Harp.
There appears to be news that the U.S. President is meeting with the Russia President
in Alaska, today.
Perhaps there is interest in what is being discussed?

Blue-collar wages grow more under Trump than other presidents since Nixon, Treasury says
https://cbsaustin.com/news/nation-world/blue-collar-wages-grow-more-under-trump-than-other-presidents-since-nixon-treasury-says
interesting that the worst drop was after HW Bush and NAFTA. I started my practice in a small town with 5 major manufacturing facilities supported by the labor of three generations of hardworking families who also sustained their farms, and raised their kids on multigenerational farms, most of who could play ball like a pro.
The health and emotional/spiritual welfare has tanked as a small percentage were sent to Mexico to help start up the plants that were replacing them. Most lost their jobs. Family owned businesses producing some of the best products in the world at reasonable profit were bought by Japanese and Chinese companies and purposely tanked/bankrupted as unwanted competition to the horror of the families whose hard work had built and sustained them.
[spit!]. It’s a two winged uniparty that cares not one whit for the health and welfare of We the People or the sacredness of our nation which our founders humbly built on the principles of our Creator and trusted him to guide its people as they selected the servants in their government.
Our Lion is turning the ship around from the top. But his greatest contribution is to awaken the souls of > 80 million hard working hard loving citizens who are every day doing more to support the vision and faith of not only our president, but our Lord and Creator.
Amen, Well said!
Few people outside of MAGA will ever fully appreciate just how close we were to losing America forever
Obama was ushering in a Marxist revolution that almost succeeded
If Hillary won, she would’ve stacked SCOTUS with 3 liberals and our gun rights, free speech, and due process rights would’ve been toast
If Kamala stole it in 2024, we’d already be in WW3 and would have another 2-3 million new illegals already here
We were THIS close to entering decades of darkness for all of humanity
But President Trump & the MAGA movement rose up to defeat the greatest evil the world has ever known
And tbh, I’m not sure we could’ve done it a 2nd time without free speech on X & Truth

Consider it an amuse bouche a few hours before the party really gets started, once the fresh cut flower center pieces finally go on the tables right before dinner is served.
Borsch for the soup course, I think.
If you think we defeated Obama and his communist revolution think again , Our 3 letter agencies are jam packed to the gills with his loyalists who are just waiting Trumps term out .As Sundance has said many times the people in charge of these agencies now are not the type who can effect lasting change .
We’re still in extreme danger of losing this country .
He didn’t say it was completely obliterated. We stopped a total takeover to the point of no return.

Israel is flooding Belgium with a bunch of Palestinians
https://x.com/NickJFuentes/status/1956429645710000403?t=GWjzGv1CeL9QqdRZVu6l4g&s=19
Glad I checked Belgium off my bucket list last winter.
Belgium had to agree to that… so, Israel is NOT flooding Belgium. Belgium is taking them.
Quite a lot are being sent to the UK (women and children for healthcare needs).
Both countries will be sorry they did that.
Guys. It just got worse. Trump is taking the Palestinians in too. He just took in a planefull in San Francisco. They came in via QATAR AIRLINE on August 6th, 2025 into SFO at 1:35 PM on Qatar Airways QR 0737. Link and Video Attached

Karma.
And the Belgians have nothing to say about this? Does that make sense to you? Do you suppose Israel is able to do this because they are a member of the EU?
Why do we blame Israel for that?
Keeping with the Obama Administration’s mission to conduct the most diverse outreach campaign in history, the director of the U.S. Census Bureau is touring Mexican border towns with high illegal immigrant populations to personally assure that those who fill out questionnaires this spring will not be deported.

BIG DEVELOPMENT: House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik Demands AG Pam Bondi Launch a Full Investigation into Standard Chartered Bank’s Terrorist Financing and Letitia James’ Role in the Explosive Scandal

@NextNewsNetwork
🚨BREAKING: Elise Stefanik just dropped a political MOAB — a bombshell letter to AG Pam Bondi warning that Standard Chartered Bank funneled $9.6 BILLION in illicit payments to terrorists… AND that China used it to buy sanctioned Iranian oil.
Here’s the kicker: Whistleblowers say NY AG Letitia James knew about the dirty money, approved the bank’s annual report anyway, and may have been working hand-in-glove with the Biden Admin to look the other way. Servers in NEW JERSEY allegedly helped move the cash.
This isn’t just corruption — it’s a direct pipeline of terrorist financing operating under the noses of America’s top law enforcement officials. If true, it’s treason-level betrayal hiding behind a deferred prosecution deal.
The question now: will Bondi act, or will the DOJ run out the clock and let this expire on August 19th?

{ CDC Drops Major Medical Groups From Vaccine Policy Role… }
“August 14, 2025 • by DailyCloutThe Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has cut eight prominent medical associations — including the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and American Medical Association (AMA) — from its vaccine policy workgroups, citing conflicts of interest tied to pharmaceutical industry funding.The decision affects the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), the influential body that recommends which vaccines should be given, who should receive them, and how often. ACIP guidance shapes CDC’s Vaccines for Children Program, determines insurance coverage, and influences state vaccine mandates for schools and daycares….”…”… In a joint statement, the removed organizations — which include the AAP, AMA, American Academy of Family Physicians, American College of Physicians, American Geriatrics Society, American Osteopathic Association, Infectious Diseases Society of America, and National Medical Association — called the decision “irresponsible” and warned it could undermine public trust in vaccines.“We are deeply disappointed and alarmed that our organizations are being characterized as ‘biased’ and therefore barred from reviewing scientific data and informing vaccine recommendations,” the statement read….This move follows HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s earlier overhaul of ACIP. In June, Kennedy retired all 17 members of the committee, citing their financial ties to pharmaceutical companies and previous promotion of controversial vaccines such as COVID-19, RSV, and HPV shots.The newly appointed ACIP members quickly made waves, voting to stop recommending thimerosal-containing flu shots — a mercury-based preservative criticized by some researchers — and to recommend Merck’s RSV monoclonal antibody for newborns….
Deep Pharmaceutical Ties RevealedFinancial disclosures show every removed organization receives substantial funding from pharmaceutical companies, including vaccine manufacturers:
AAP: Corporate sponsors include Moderna, Merck, Sanofi, Abbott, GSK, and CSL Seqirus.AMA: Sponsors include PhRMA, Merck, Pfizer, Novartis, Sanofi, Bristol-Myers Squibb, and GSK.National Medical Association: Funded by Eli Lilly, Gilead, Pfizer, Merck, Amgen, and AstraZeneca.Infectious Diseases Society of America: Partners with Abbvie, AstraZeneca, Gilead, Merck, Moderna, Pfizer, and Sanofi.American Academy of Family Physicians: Partners with Pfizer, Merck, Sanofi, and Amazon Pharmacy.American College of Physicians: Corporate partners include Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and Big Food companies like Tyson Foods and PepsiCo.American Geriatrics Society: Sponsors include Merck and Pfizer.American Osteopathic Association: Funded by Pfizer, Astellas, Merck, and Sanofi.Some of these groups have actively **opposed policy changes from the new ACIP, including limits on certain vaccines and preservation of religious and philosophical exemptions.**
New Approach: Broader Expertise, Less Industry InfluenceNew ACIP working groups will now select experts based solely on their merit and relevant experience, according to new committee member Retsef Levi, Ph.D.
Levi wrote on X that the shift is intended to replace “radical & narrow” public health perspectives with a broader range of disciplines and to end the dominance of organizations with proven conflicts of interest.
The decision marks one of the most significant shakeups in federal vaccine policy-making in decades — and signals a deep split between federal health leadership and long-established medical institutions.
