They also keep telling us that illegals dont vote while crying that ICE at polling places will drive away their voters.
I just came across this story about PEPFAR funding that Cornyn is demanding as ransom to let Kari Lake and Doug Mastriano’s ambassador nominations go forward, which informs me that PEPFAR is another Swamp sacred cow like USAID, doing anything but its stated cause. And probably very bad, not in the interests of Americans, outside the corrupt ones.
https://www.semafor.com/article/07/21/2026/cornyn-threatens-to-sink-trump-nominees-over-pepfar
I searched CTH for prior stories, a few going back a decade, but see no flags about it as Swamp slush fund propping up dictatorships or funding more fake pandemics like Ebola. The story says it’s related to AIDS funding, and that’s another scam. So it’s probably Big pHARMa death industry related. Any readers of this thread at this late hour have any info on it?
There’s absolutely no way it is good if Cornyn is demanding ransom for it.
PEPFAR was President George Bush’s ‘President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief’ in 2003. It mainly focused on sub-Saharan African countries relief of HIV/AIDS. Fauci, Birx, and Pence all played a role in it.
And by now it’s probably a money-laundering operation for leftists, which seems to be the inevitable outcome of all these “programs.” But this is just Cornyn’s excuse to virtue-signal his TDS to his comrades in the “resistance,” just like Tillis virtue-signals his opposition to the Save America Act. Uniparty scum, both of them.
Looks like PEPFAR gets more funding than USAID received.
You have to wonder how many of these schemes are out there?
That cast of criminals confirms suspicions.

We received a whistleblower tip at http://VoiceAgainstCorruption.com from a now-retired Postmaster in California, who provided evidence that USPS back-postdated ballots during the 2020 election up to December 31st. These ballots looked pristine, with no prior postmarks or any evidence they had been through a mail processing facility. They were forced to retire and were threatened by postal inspectors.
They had reported the issue to the USPS Office of Inspector General, which itself identified problems.
Their investigation found that tens of thousands of ballots across multiple states were processed in ways that made it impossible to verify whether they actually met state deadlines.

🚨 BREAKING: The Michigan Court of Appeals just VACATED the convictions of two more guys in the Whitmer kidnapping case.
Paul Bellar and Pete Musico are now FREE (same as Joseph Morrison last month).
The ruling stated the Jury was WRONGLY told kidnapping automatically counts as a “violent felony” and act of terrorism. Court disagreed and said that charge doesn’t hold up under the law.
Dana Nessel is furious, calling it “linguistic gymnastics” and vowing to appeal.

Convictions against 2 more men overturned in Wolverine Watchmen plot to kidnap Whitmer

Just….wow.
Communists are clucking that the terrible movie version of Homer’s Odyssey from British director Christopher Nolan is making money, despite the “outraged Right” trashing its casting and other ridiculous things in the movie.
However…
Given Nolan’s reputation alone, people were buying reserved tickets months in advance, before anything was known about the movie, so fanatical are his fans from his Batman/Dark Knight movies and other things, which are usually overwritten, overwrought, and over-rated.
We shall see whether the movie continues to make money long-term, or whether all those early ticket sales were a bubble which will not be sustained.
To be sure, true believers may watch it more than once, bringing in more money, but not more viewers. This seems to be the case with those Blue-Alien Avatar movies from director James Cameron, which make much money somehow (perhaps from his fans seeing them multiple times), but which few people seem to recall, and which even fewer consider to be classics of any kind.
I saw the first one with Mrs. Ausonius, who was so underwhelmed that she fell asleep within 20 minutes. I stayed awake but found the environmental preaching tedious and pretentious.
C&C News 7/21/26
(Second article)
Excerpt:
We have a rare, massive win out of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. On Friday, a three-judge panel temporarily revived the Trump Administration’s executive order requiring strict new security and transparency standards for mail-in voting ahead of the 2026 midterms. The ruling allows the U.S. Postal Service to proceed with implementing the new rules, pausing a lower court’s injunction that had blocked them. Left-wing Democracy Docket, predictably, melted down into a goo of rage. They ran a breathless article titled, “Appeals court allows USPS to move forward with Trump’s anti-mail voting order, for now.”…..
…..Why does this terrify Democrats? Because it closes two of the biggest, most obvious vectors for mail-in ballot fraud.
First, it eliminates the “last-minute manufactured ballot” problem. By requiring states to submit a list of expected mail-in voters before the ballots go out, and tying each ballot to a unique, trackable barcode, it becomes mathematically impossible for a sudden, unexplained pallet of ballots to mysteriously appear at a counting center at 3:00 a.m. If the barcode wasn’t on the pre-approved outbound list, the USPS system flags it.
And if a ballot is not in the USPS database at all— then it must have come from somewhere else.
Second, it stops any backdating of postmarks. One of the persistent concerns with mail-in voting has been the potential for corrupt postal workers to illegally backdate postmarks on ballots received after Election Day, allowing late ballots to be counted anyway.
The Intelligent Mail Barcode tracks the ballot’s physical progress all the way through the postal system in real-time. A manual, backdated ink stamp means nothing if the digital barcode scan shows the ballot didn’t enter the postal stream until two days after the election.

And several blue hive states are lining up to appeal on the basis that the states are suppose to run the elections, which they do, but they still have to comply with postal regulations and processes.
The drama is going to be over the top.
Trump anger at Ed Miliband’s appointment as foreign secretary.
Andy Burnham has been warned that the US president ‘will not forget’ Ed Miliband’s fierce criticism of him in the past and that he has some ‘serious diplomatic repair to undertake’ in his new role.
Even if he was considered, think Starmer didn’t want it. To go from PM to Foreign Sec and work under the guy who replaced you is probably too much for Starmer to stomach.
Not just “the guy who replaced you” but “the guy who actively took steps to sabotage and undermine your political career to force you out and replace you.”
Whether or not Keir Starmer needed to resign eventually, Burnham has been working against Starmer for months (most notably, embarrassing him over the Gorton and Denton by-election).
The guy who actively took steps to sabotage and undermine’ Keir’s political career was Starmer himself. Man’s entire premiership was a series of unforced errors and u-turns.
Foreign secretary is also very much a position where you want someone who appears strong in front of other world leaders. Dealing with someone as the guy who literally just got demoted isn’t good for your positioning

🔥🔥🔥
Yesterday, out of nowhere, Secretary of State Marco Rubio dropped a 100-page tactical nuke on the American radical left. The State Department released a comprehensive report, breathtaking in its scope, titled { “Cuba: The Capital of 21st Century Communism.“ }
The Guardian UK reported, “‘Front groups and fellow travelers’: state department attacks US left over Cuba.”(linked)
…
The report details how, for nearly seventy years, the communist regime in Cuba has operated as the main ideological engine and central nervous system for almost every destructive left-wing movement in the United States.
If you have ever wondered why American leftists —who supposedly care about things like “healthcare” and “the environment”— always seem to end up marching in the streets waving foreign flags, cheering for terrorists, and demanding the destruction of Western civilization, the State Department just gave you the answer: Because Cuba trained them to do that.
…
The Democratic Socialists of America’s commitment to Cuba is described as “fierce” and “almost religious.” This makes sense. When your entire economic theory has failed everywhere it has ever been tried, you have to treat it as a religion, because treating it as a math problem is too depressing.
It also highlighted the “Nuestra America Convoy,” a March 2026 leftist junket to Havana coordinated by a convicted Cuban spy. The passenger manifest reads like a VIP list for a campus encampment: Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, Amazon Labor Union founder Christian Smalls, and Isra Hirsi (the suspended Columbia protestor who also happens to be Ilhan Omar’s daughter).
…
🔥 But the most immediately alarming section of the report dealt with the National Network on Cuba (NNOC) and its “National Rapid Response Plan.” The Response Plan is a literal blueprint for domestic sabotage.
The plan outlines coordinated, nationwide strikes against federal buildings, U.S. military bases, and ICE detention centers to be launched within 24 hours if the U.S. ever takes military action against Cuba.
The goal is explicitly to link “Cuba solidarity to anti-ICE/immigrant defense work happening nationwide.”
In other words, according to this official U.S. State Department report, the Cuban regime has successfully built a domestic fifth column inside the United States, utilizing American citizens who hate their own country so much they are willing to serve as a human shield for a collapsing tropical communist dictatorship.
…
The report is a stunning document and a nightmare for the Democrats and their Cuban spymasters. Read the whole thing if you have time….”

Approximately 85 percent of the worlds refugees are Muslim. Yet they bypass all 50 plus Muslim majority countries and head straight for non Muslim Western nations.
Why is that? They are not fleeing persecution in every direction. They are seeking the welfare systems, freedoms, and prosperity built by the very cultures they refuse to assimilate into. Open borders are not compassion.
They are civilizational suicide. Europe is already learning this the hard way with no go zones, parallel societies, and skyrocketing crime and if we don’t stop the Democrats, there’s a 100% chance it’s going to happen here.

During Tucker’s interview with Andrew Tate, Andrew Tate repeatedly mischaracterised what he was being accused of. One glaring example: when Carlson asked Tate, “You’re not accused of rape?” Tate answered, “No.”Carlson offered no correction or pushback, despite this being inconsistent with the indictment
