“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”
“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

With election over, Biden eyes parting blow to Putin war chest
The administration is considering major new financial sanctions on energy,
in part to give the new Trump team leverage in Ukraine talks.
But Biden may not want to drive gas prices up, even in his final days in office.
President Joe Biden is weighing major new sanctions against Russia’s energy sector in his final weeks in office, four people familiar with the matter said, as the administration considers a parting blow in its financial war against Vladimir Putin.
The move would also give the incoming team of President-elect Donald Trump more leverage in its negotiations with Putin over ending Russia’s war with Ukraine, said the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe deliberations that aren’t public.

US provides Ukraine with first billion of expected US$20 billion from frozen Russian assets
Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal has announced the receipt of the first billion dollars of a US$20 billion loan secured by proceeds from frozen Russian assets.
He explained that this is the first tranche of the planned US$20 billion that the United States is ready to allocate through the use of frozen Russian assets under the G7 initiative.
[…]We expect that all sovereign Russian assets will be confiscated and used to rebuild Ukraine,” Shmyhal said.

These loans with strings attached, which they can’t afford to pay back, are a major part of the reason Ukrainians will never see their goal of becoming a “normal” country.
Absolutely, and many have no idea, or are already dead!
But then people carp about Chinas Belt and Road initiative, which is said to to the same thing.
Both are loansharks, dealing with countries, instead of businesses and individuals, as in “nice country you got here”.
The difference is China “settles” for ports, and bases, etc.
America just keeps the Countries in permanent debt they can never pay off, and withsuch exhorbitant taxes that their economy can never grow.
Ah,…but then they offer them “aid”,…so disgusted.
The IMF strings are much much worse than China’s. China attaches to the asset beung built as collateral. The west attaches to the victim’s entire political system.
But but they get “democracy”. / obvious sarc.
Same as GERMANY…occupational zone of USA….they had chance in the 1945 to stay neutral and united…..

Exclusive interview with Dmytro Kuleba, Ukraine’s ex-foreign minister
Kuleba offers candid insights into the nation’s challenges and opportunities, and this unique moment in Ukrainian history.
00:00 — intro
00:42 — how does it feel being an observer after 4.5 years of being a Foreign Minister?
01:40 — What can we expect from the next months? Will there be any negotiations?
02:56 — Russia doesn’t seem to have a reason to stop the war. Does the West overestimate Russian willingness to talk about peace?
04:46 — What do you say to people who want to build friendly ties with Russia, especially in Europe?
07:46 — What do we to stop Russia?
09:52 — Ukraine’s potential for revanchist policies towards Russia
10:38 — In your time at the Foreign Ministry, did you feel sidelined by the Presidential Office led by Andrii Yermak while discussing weapons with the partners?
12:10 — Does Andrii Yermak’s influence on inner and foreign affairs help or harm Ukraine?
13:13 — There are talks about potential Ukrainian elections next year. Will we see your name on the ballot?
15:36 — Why do you not see the war ending in the months after Trump’s inauguration?
17:11 — International sanctions were supposed to make the war too costly for Russia to continue, but it still does. Why?
20:14 — Why does Russia still get revenues from oil, despite sanctions?
21:16 — Why is the narrative about “crossing Russian red lines by giving Ukraine weapons” still powerful? Are Russian red lines real?
24:57 — Does it work to challenge Russian narratives by talking to people making anti-Ukrainian comments, like Joe Rogan?
26:59 — What are you doing to explain Ukraine’s point of view after you stopped being a Foreign Minister?
29:01 — Ideas about Ukraine are born in academia. Is the world’s perspective on Ukraine imperialized there?
31:19 — Why should Trump support Ukraine’s membership in NATO?
33:53 — Could some Ukrainian territories stay occupied after a potential peace deal?
36:41 — Is Ukrainian society divided on what it wants out of Ukraine’s victory in the war?
37:55 — What do you think should be the ultimate goal for Ukrainian society?
40:10 — Can Ukraine get in a situation where it’s decided by others what will be the temporary solution on the way to end the war?
Simply proving why Russia must press on, unrepentant Banderistas make poor neighbors.

Rand Paul’s Festivus report shows that Anthony Fraudci spent $12.5+ Million dollars to barbarically study (torture) kittens. Quite Frankly I couldn’t read the entire thing…it’s that bad. One of the experiments was to study erectile dysfunction in CATS!

There really are no words sufficient to describe the pure EVIL that fills this man! There is no earthly justice that could be meted out for the crimes against humanity (and animals) that he has committed but I do take some solace that God is still on the throne, He does promise vengeance, and eternity is a long time!
Crimes against animals are crimes against humanity. We are caretakers of all animals except for, maybe, mosquitoes.
And snakes….God said that He would put enmity between the woman and the serpent and I do my best to uphold that promise!
Two years ago I got my first pet as an adult that is all mine: A calico cat. She was abandoned at a flooring installation job I had out in the boonies of Northeast Ohio. The previous owners were calling her “Calley” so I kept the pronunciation but spell it “Kali” after the Hindu goddess of motherhood, destruction and chaos.
Torturing animals was a favorite pass time of other more stable, less prolific serial killers like Jeffery Dahmer..
Agree. Why wasn’t this known sooner? Where is PETA? At least someone in the MSM? An insider or whistleblower? I hope I live to see justice brought to Dr. Fauci.
This was all out there to be known but somehow this guy with a bad record as long as your arm was given a position of ridiculous power over Americans.
No one bothered to spend the ten-15 minutes which was all that should have been necessary to let them know what a monster he is and always has been.
He manuevered to sit at the juncture of Big Healthcare, Big Pharma and the MIC and I/C, and so was protected as no one else in Gummint.
yea, an easy way i view it is that That’s an Obama person, a Hillary person, a Pelosi Person, a President Trump person
The same is true of the UniParty snake, Robert S Mueller III.
I can’t even read about such things – its so diabolical; so, so horrible. Beyond depravity.
I rejoice in the knowledge where the souls of such ghouls will end up and how they will have to account. I’ve studied the Book of The Revelation for years. I know exactly what is promised to happen to these ghouls.
Benghazi 2 point 0……let him die
FOIA Emails: State Department Let Gonzalo Lira Die in Ukraine
nothing new about it..to letting US journalist died in UKRAINE …..how many died in the Levant ????
From what I have gathered previously, from researching the time when Hillary Clinton intervened over some Americans arrested in Haiti, and from what Ron Johnson confirms in the video, it is not the State Department’s place to intervene when a citizen has been arrested according to another country’s laws.
Ms. Iversen should know bett. She may have a point that we shouldn’t be sending them money over “ideals”, but our First Amendment does not apply in Ukraine, but their wartime propaganda laws do.
They (DOS) did what they are allowed to do, they checked on his well-being on numerous occasions.
The whole world at the time was suffering under the covid delusion, and perhaps if America had stood tall against the obvious nuttery and human rights violations that kept anyone from checking on Lira in person, things might have turned out differently, but we didn’t stand tall, we violated human rights and our Constitution with lockdowns.
All the more reason to punish the people involved in that evil hoax, but we won’t. Nobody wants to admit that they took part, and nobody wants anyone they like to at least have to say they are sorry they allowed this to happen to us.
I regularly watched his videos and enjoyed seeing him – he was a character.
I couldn’t understand why he waited so long to try to flee, and still feel sorrow for what happened to him. He had a brilliant mind.

Yes. If an executive order started it then an executive order can end it.
Biden stopped the Wall and many other PDJT EOs with the stroke of a pen. Now it is PDJT’s turn.
Also should not be able to give such blanket immunity, against criminally negligrnt homicide.
Giving such an immunity, at the outset actually fosters the criminal negligent attitude; “why concern ourselves with ‘safety’, when we are immune from lawsuits, anyway?”

For the small business owners who were, or weren’t, aware of the FinCEN requirement to file, before the end of this year, a Beneficial Ownership Information Report identifying individuals who own and/or control 25% or more of a business, a few weeks ago a Texas judge had placed an injunction, creating a pause in the requirement for filing the initial report –
that injunction was just lifted and filing is again required. The fines and penalties for not timely filing are fines a bit over $500 per day plus possible jail time.
This guy just posted a video explaining what’s going on now that the injunction has been lifted; 14 minutes:

Yes, I got the below message on the subject from one of my vendors awhile back:
Re: Important Message Regarding New BOI Reporting Requirements
Dear Members:
We are writing to bring to your attention a new federal regulation that will impact many of our members. The Beneficial Ownership Information (“BOI”) Reporting Rule requires most companies to disclose information about the individuals who own or control a company to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”).
The rule applies to reporting companies created or registered to do business in the U.S. before January 1, 2024. These companies must file by January 1, 2025.1 According to FinCEN’s website, a person that willfully violates the rule may be subject to a penalty of $591 per day for each day that a company is in violation of the rule.
You can read more about the BOI requirements on FinCEN’s website, https://www.fincen.gov/boi.
Many of our members will be impacted by this new rule and we wanted to ensure that you were aware of it. We also wanted to let you know about some options to help you comply with the rule.
We hope this information is helpful to you. As always thanks for shopping with us. We appreciate your business!
Bessie, can’t thank you enough for this (dreaded) update!!

This has always been my objection to the various efforts to force working people out of their personal automobiles.
Public transportation is just plain dangerous for women, more so than for men, on a good day.
Then the city makes it even more dangerous, and brings back the “congestion tax” idea. Insanity.
Know how to ease congestion? Throw out ALL the illegal aliens, RIGHT NOW.

Instead of locking up the sadistic killers who roam the subway, Alvin Bragg indicted Good Samaritan Daniel Penny. And when women decide it’s too scary to take the subway Kathy Hochul imposes a “congestion tax” to force us to.
https://x.com/mirandadevine/status/1870930693066539451
Clarion: I rode the subway for many years, as did my father before me. Things have not changed much since the 1970s, when the NY was bankrupt and crime was rampant. Riding the subway, one must be hyper-alert and non-chalant. You have to act as if you are not there, while, at the same time, keep your head on a swivel and be aware of your surroundings and any worrisome behavior.
its only pathetic because of the gun laws and the Government Officials.
homeless and crazies respect Fear and Consequence. They have little now.
You also have to pay rapt attention to your subway exit. Sometimes going just one stop too many can put you in an urban war zone. I used to love riding the subway. On hot days it was always cool underground.
Our entire system has been perverted
to where each power point in our system has a puppet installed
that does the bidding of those that put them in and not the bidding of the laws.
judges, politicians, SES employees
there is not much consequence with any of there unbelievable actions.
Whats worse for them .. a President Trump presidency or trying to stall it and risk what happens
On the other hand,…”any means neccesary” by which they mean cheating, lieing, intimidation, persecution and even mass murder; NOTHING is “off the table” in their quest to aquire and hold onto power.
And, the RINO Republican leadership, that was fully onboard with the instigation on J6 of a Fedsurrection to give them an excuse to implement emergency measures in order to prevent the legitimate contesting of the illegitimate results, will passively “go along with” the Democrsts contesting the 2024 results, no doubt in my mind.
The thing is, any thorough investigation of any States results, is going to show PDJT got more votes than were tallied, and irregularities all fell Joes way.
They better be careful.
Not sure if this is true:
“To everyone calling for Mike Johnson’s head, if we do not have a Speaker of the House on January 6th…

Just research the Fat Leonard scandal to understand how the Navy is corrupted
And look at the collisions of the USS McCain, USS Fitzgerald, USS Connecticut ( out of service till 2026 ) and the crash of a Navy spy plane in Hawaii.
TWA 800 AGAIN??
What’s that Gettysburg address so I can complain?
Wow. The U.S. Gettysburg shot at two of our Jets, as they were preparing to land on another U.S. Ship not one.
Now, instead of friendly fire incident, being invrstigated for firing on two of our warplanes.
Was this AI, that misakenly “though” the planes were attacking, when they were landing, on the ships?
Remember a few years ago the Navy ships that either collided with commercial shipping and/or hit something submerged? (Something to that effect.) Navigation issues? Or something or someone got into the ships’ systems? Chinese hacking? Something going on with the Gettysburg? Or is the Navy totally effed up?
This more than likely doesn’t apply to this incident…Hower…
“For those unacquainted with Li, he and the Bidens helped arrange the transfer of stealth technology to a blacklisted Chinese military manufacturer. No, that’s not the plot line of a movie. That actually happened, and there has been zero accountability in the aftermath of those revelations. With Joe Biden’s recent pardoning of his son, that’s unlikely to change.”

Two planes were shot at.
One was hit (the two guys in it got out) the other plane dodged the shot.
There is one report indicating one of the planes was refueling the other

why doesnt every media outlet and Agency Head need to also for Covid and for the Russia Hoax. There are identifiable victims in both of these.
Because thats different.
They are gummint officials, and msm,..actually as PDJT is demonstrating, MSM CAN be held to account.
Could be a trick.
it is a trick !
LOL
Did Biden commute their death sentence and release them or they have to stay in prison?
Does it matter? He just stole justice from the victims.
I still can’t believe that I have been so lucky to have been alive during The Age of Trump. So much inspiration, so much.

Elon Musk shares a great video on X of President Ronald Regean is talking about just how bad the US government is. What President Regean states is exactly what the government does, or does not do. Now it’s 100x worse.
“MUST SEE: Elon Drops Powerful Video of Reagan That is True Now More Than Ever”
Excerpts:
Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy being in charge of the incoming Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is perhaps one of the most exciting ideas from President-elect Donald Trump.
Through it, you could have a true change in government. That’s likely one of the reasons that the powers that be are fighting to separate Musk and Trump, and back him out of the equation. They’re afraid of free media and they’re afraid of the change this could bring to government.
