MAGA-MAHA…
MAHA does have massive support. I hope the movement isn’t hindered by some political types.
Bryce Lipscomb, and the naysayers who chided him, didn’t really seem to know much about MAGA. 95% of the MAGA people I know have been saying the same exact thing as the MAHA newcomers in regards to the jabs, big Pharma, big agriculture, the unholy alliance between government and the food industry and pharmaceutical industry, so I guess the lesson I learn from this is the media really does make people really ignorant.
His X feed is great and has a lot of vids that show his waking up process.
You can see it wether you’re on X or not. You just won’t see *all* his tweets, which is fine.
Some of the older ones from Trump and Sarah Huckabee are there.
There was a lot of stink-eye here when I first mentioned he had a very big & loyal following.
Not being under any degree of delusion the KDS has abated, Kennedy Derangement Syndrome seems to have gone dormant for now.
I saw things differently.
My perception was there were many whom knew a great deal about him and have issues with some of his other views and past statements unrelated to food, Ag, big pharma, and C19. Then there was the way he made some statements that appeared to put himself front and center, ahead of PDJT in the hierarchy – which didn’t sit well with many.
Bottom line, none of that has changed – but it isn’t KDS. If he sticks in his lane and successfully suppresses his totalitarian and big government tendencies, all will be fine.
I have never made a secret of – I’ve mentioned repeatedly here – my suspicion that RFK II was MKU’d as a boy when his uncle, then his father, were both assassinated, because isn’t it a given & certain he received “professional gov’t. grief counseling”. He then proceeded to go off the hinges in his young adulthood, as do many of the Hollywierd actors tend to also from their programming.
In Brice Taylor’s memoir of her life in MKU slavery titled ‘Thanks For The Memories’, there is a lot about the Kennedy family; her involvement was back when RFK was a boy also… she was very young & they’re nearly same age iirc.
Two things are True at the same time – RFK has spoken out & litigated successfully against chemical toxicity in the environment for 4 decades, and that has garnered him a large & loyal following.
AND
I count *nothing* impossible in relation to the nefarious, deceptive manipulations by the satanic forces warring against Humanity.
So, what if “his lane” is, ultimately in fact, not what it seems after all?
Nicole Shanihan has already put Warnock on notice that she made him, and now she is coming for his primary scalp.
And she has the war chest to do it.
Never mess with Momma Bears. They are bigger and more ferocious than Big Pharma now.
These RFKJ “no” voters are just plain stupid with these political dynamics.
Nicole should expose the Shirley Sherrod machine in Georgia if she really wants to right the wrong.
So many opportunities… Good thing she’s so smart and aware.
Our job is to back up President Trump and people like Nicole who are trying to get rid of the rino globalists.
.
While I’m glad she is where she is because attacks on her friend RFKJr., I feel cautious. What kind of stupid pours money to Dems during the Biden administration. I don’t trust.
.
She made Warnock? I woudn’t brag about that if I were her. SPIT
I voted for Bush 1 and 2, Romney, Ryan, and McStain.
Most of us here voted for RINOs. Both side of the uniparty were playing their voters/base.
I voted against Clinton, Gore, Kerry, Obama, Clinton and then I twice voted for President Trump.
Most of us live and learn. We need to give her credit for learning.
Another way to look at this is the dem party had become communist and the repubs are on their way to being what the dem party used to be when they claimed to be the party of the people. So maybe she is one of the people who say “the party left me.”
I agree with all these comments but lets also remember that we’re only a few years past the Lying Legacy Media having a monopoly. We didn’t always have a way to know what we know now.
How did Nicole get so much money? She is pretty young.
She was married to the founder of Google, Sergay Brin.
Jeez Angela Alsobrooks was just elected in 2024 for her first term! Coming off another scandal for cheating on her taxes. Gotta love Maryland.
People like Liz Warren don’t even have the excuse that they “need” the money in order to fund their re-election campaigns.
They are old and could just go home. They aren’t mid career.
Thy and theirs are also well-set financially, so what are they still doing this for?
Power, pure unadulterated power. And they use that power to try and run our lives.
“They” pride themselves in thinking they are still relevant. Don’t know when to quit the stage and go home. Guess they need to be laughed off. Liz and Bernie accomplished the art of buffoonery in the Senate hearings last week.
Lie-a-watha and her ilk are probably in so deep and have been for so long that they can’t get out. The money makes them even more compromised.
Take Mitch McConnell for example.
Remember the pictures of him looking like he’d been in a cage fight? All the freeze strokes he’s had? His sister-in-law’s bizarre, untimely death?
Where is his wife anyway?
They’re all stuck. Stuck in the muck of compromise and dirty money.
Few ever retire.
Remember Di-Fi-Chi-Spy? That poor old dinosaur couldn’t escape either!
Raking in big bucks, but nevertheless stuck.
o.0
They probably have a lot of Puppet Masters telling/encouraging them to stay in.
Pretty easy job when all you have to do is show up and rant nonsense and then vote the way you’re told every once in a while.
No brain power required.
>>> They and theirs are also well-set financially, so what are they still doing this for?
Easy: They don’t have free will.
Anyone with true integrity would recuse themselves from the process.
Unfortunately many in Congress have sold out their integrity to the highest bidder and the dollar signs show it.
BIG PHARMA owns many politicians. The price BIG PHARMA pays for politicians is one of the drivers for high drug prices. Another thing driving prices higher is just plain old GREED. When a politician is part of the problem, he/she won’t be looking for a solution and will actually stand as a roadblock in CORRECTING the problem. Watch and take notes on who votes against RFJ JR. It will be telling.
😤🤬🤯 Those amounts represent lobbying cash. They don’t even include their likely stocks in the Medical Industrial Complex.
Infuriating! Lobbying should be outlawed in DC. While we’re at it outlaw stock trades for CONgressional representatives and their families..
And there she is, one of Minnesota’s
useless/worthless/putridSenators, Tina (PlannedParenthoodmurder) Smith.Amy Klobutcher can’t be too far behind.
I pretty much don’t care what Jimmy Kimmel says or does anymore, the reason I’m posting this is to illustrate that his motivation should come under more scrutiny, because it isn’t just Big Pharma he shills for, and his politicization of his show is costing him fans, and he’s either working for the Deep State or he’s one of those celebrities who has been convinced that he is so extra special-special that he can be their honorary secret agent man.
Are we supposed to believe that Kimmel is against the sort of behavior that RFK Jr. exhibited in the lowest point in his life?
What’s funny about anything he said?
He doesn’t even bother trying to hide how blazed he is anymore.
End Tribalism in Politics
@EndTribalism
Jimmy Kimmel just mocked RFK Jr. for his neurological disorder, spasmodic dysphonia, and then went after his wife, Cheryl Hines.
“The hearing was rocky to say the least, and not just because it sounds like he swallowed a bag of rocks.”
“Kennedy was accompanied by his wife, the actress Cheryl Hines, who sat quietly behind her husband as he attempted to rewrite the story of his life.”
I have no issue with comedians or late-night hosts criticizing RFK Jr. for his opinions, actions, or policy positions—that comes with the territory, and he signed up for it.
But mocking a man’s debilitating neurological condition and taking cheap shots at his wife is beyond inappropriate.
RFK Jr. has openly admitted how embarrassed he is by his voice, and Cheryl Hines is widely regarded as one of the kindest people in Hollywood.
Once again, the “tolerant left” proves just how intolerant they are when it comes to people they dislike.
https://x.com/EndTribalism/status/1884837711258751268
Most of the network advertising revenue comes from drug company commercials!
Jimmy knows who is signing his fat paycheck!
Kimmel outed himself as someone whose soul is in need a massive overhaul. Ridiculing someone’s…anyone’s…health issues simply makes him more physically repulsive to me than he was already. Karma has a way of showing up. He really should be mindful of it.
I never cared what he said, Clarion. Nor any of his fellow late night hosts.
Comedy died with Johnny Carson.
JMHO, comedy died with Red Skelton who signed off each TV show with, “May God bless”.
The man was a true gift, never cursed and was always bringing the best of humanity to light…
I loved his Seagull routine
Seriously, who watches these “comedians” anymore?
If he had stuck with the Man Show, he would have been fine
Jimmy Kimmel is a kook.
Who is Jimmy Kimmel? Don’t answer that!! I’ve enjoyed a wonderful life thus far without knowing who he/she is
God has Mysterious Ways… imo, CH is getting an overdue education (that includes within the family circus).
Trump has designated 3 famous men to be Hollyweed embassador-types… Cheryl is – God willing – going to end up converted; and she might just become another one.

CC Speech Tech Gal
@speechtechgal
As a speech language pathologist, I was appalled by the aggressive engagement of many members of Congress. Senate hearings aren’t known for respectful reciprocal exchanges. But today, RFK’s treatment with his voice disorder was next level disgraceful. The voice breaks, strains, tremors, and effortful vocal outputs should’ve been met with more compassion and a minimal amount of decency. A little patience and added time for RFK to respond would’ve at least leveled the playing field during the high stakes exchanges with fluent speakers.
While voice disorders need more awareness, some of Congress and Democrats need less ableism.
https://x.com/speechtechgal/status/1884846253907083416
Imagine if R Senators would have treated Fetterman that way when he first started his term… disgraceful!
Biden must explain what the Ukraine war was for
In the first weeks of the war, there was a plausible hope worth exploring that Ukraine might retain much of its territory while avoiding catastrophic bloodshed and destruction of lives. Washington chose a different path, and it is incumbent on Biden to explain why.
Quick read and on-point. Would love to see Biden called to testify under oath … but I’ll settle for Blinken, Nuland and other kleptocrats,
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/biden-must-explain-what-ukraine-war-was
“then what was American support for the war all about”
That’s an easy one to answer in three words: Cold Hard Cash. Two Million (? Who knows) lives lost so corrupt politicians could enrich themselves.
That picture right there is the real “Cruel Kids” cover shot.
keeping in mind there is possibly a DEI component to this story,
my local audacy radio station (wbbm 780, chicago, soros owned) just ran a CBS news feed stating
that the airplane was at 325 feet (definitive), and the helicopter at “about” 200 feet.
no further clarification given.
um, so where did they intersect?
or is CBS saying they never collided?
prayers for all the victims and their families. ✝️ 🙏🏻
Zoom, WBBM and WGN make me ill. And its laughable how WLS is trying to suddenly again become ‘conservative’…..none of those stations can get traffic reports correct on the Stevenson…
Speaking of WLS…I long for the days of Bob Sirott, Larry Lujack and John Landecker…
Revisionist history, a progressive democrat specialty.
They are not getting that right. I’ve watched/listened to every video and read every comment about that mid air collision. They are misunderstanding or just plain lying.
@zoom and all others reading here…
From what I understand, both the helo and airplanes were confirmed at 325′ altitude. The problem is that ATC data shows the helo was at 200′. That’s a conflict.
This makes me wonder about “GPS spoofing”. Its a sad reality that there are people out there who get their kicks jamming and spoofing GPS signals. It’s happened multiple times at sea and in the air in recent years.
thank you!
i trust CBS….to get it wrong every time.
i also suspect CBS of obfuscating the facts, as LEET suggests above.
but your explanation is entirely logical and unfortunately very believable.
does there exist any way to identify signal spoofing/jamming equipment?
“get their kicks jamming and spoofing GPS signals”
Does China have that capability?
If an anarchist stoner with a bucket of parts they bought on closeout from RadioShack can do it, I assume the CCP can do it too.
The Social Aide position seems very odd. Was she in the military. Why did they scrub everything. Suspicious cat eyes.
So she was a military Social aide and was flying in a helo called PAT which would mean it has a VIP onboard. So was someone on the copter that was not reported or was it really a training copter?
A military social aide is a commissioned officer from the U.S. Armed Forces who assists with the personal needs of visiting dignitaries at the White House and facilitates interactions with the President and First Lady. This role includes managing guests during social events and requires impeccable appearance and loyalty to the United States.
I also wonder if there was another person on the helo, especially since it took of from a private residence.
It’s hard to say as the headlines were written like
Bodies of 3 soldiers recovered;
The flight crew was…;
2 members of the Flight Crew were identified;
Pilot identified;
Probably nothing, and I’ve put no time into checking, but those are not the same as saying there were only 3 passengers on board.
You are mixing up the two incidents. The second helo left from the private residence. Three passengers on the military helo and 6 on the other one – two doctors, two pilots, patient and mother.
That sounds like the Phil crash.
r0ng.
Elle isn’t mixing up the two incidents.
You are either confused yourself or you’re deliberately trying to obfuscate.
This is the second time you’ve done this on this exact same issue in the past couple of days.
What gives?
o.0
Well, if it was someone really important they are currently missing and that would not go unnoticed I would guess. Would have been reported somewhere by someone. I guess anything is possible though. Why did they hide her social media history?
As I said before, was the Blob trying to eliminate someone?
Top military brass in California would have been proud of her! https://freebeacon.com/california/californias-top-military-commander-displayed-gay-as-f-flag-in-his-office-before-newsom-promoted-him
You would think that people would learn that by now. He was right, which is what always happens.
But this person is not the only problem. The ATC were not properly staffed, and there is still the question of the failure to give clear directions.
We also need to keep in mind that none of this happens in a vacuum. For example, DEI people managing and planning shifts or conducting training are also problems to eradicate.
The mainstream media is telling government workers NOT to take the buyout:
Federal workers should tell Trump ‘no deal’ on resignation offer
….You’re being bamboozled.
Clearly, many people are not convinced they can resign, stop working and continue getting a paycheck until Sept. 30. So, the updated FAQ tries to persuade them otherwise:
Q: Can I take an extended vacation while on administrative leave?
A: You are most welcome [to] stay at home and relax or to travel to your dream destination. Whatever you would like.
Don’t make a decision of this magnitude based on answers to a bizarrely written FAQ. You should get assurances in an official document tailored to your specific situation.
And here’s why.
Another part of the original resign email states that if you hit reply, you are agreeing to this statement: “I understand my employing agency will likely make adjustments in response to my resignation including moving, eliminating, consolidating, reassigning my position and tasks, reducing my official duties, and/or placing me on paid administrative leave until my resignation date.”
In an earlier FAQ, people were told “except in rare cases determined by your agency, you are not expected to work.” That line was removed.
This shows that nothing is quite guaranteed.
I don’t trust for a nanosecond that the Trump administration and billionaire Elon Musk, who was tapped to head the “Department of Government Efficiency,” will live up to the promise to pay people not to work.
How is that being financially prudent and efficient with public funds?…
severence package and to keep benefits longer
You make good points. Don’t hit click to resign until you 100% understand what you are buying!
That said, it seems like very poor advice to just say “No” to the deal if one is unwilling or unable to return to work. That’s just CRAZY and STUPID.
I suspect they intend to shut down many of these agencies or scale them waaay down. EPA, Dept of Ed and others would scarcely be missed if they disappeared tomorrow. It will be far cheaper to do the buyouts and rapidly move forward with a smaller, committed work force.
Well, it could be so they could replace the person with someone of the administration’s choice rather than the buyout employees. They won’t be able to get overtime and probably will look for work elsewhere.
The buyout will give them time to find a job, daycare, etc.
It will also prevent a huge hit on the economy from layoffs.
I wouldn’t trust Musk, as he has already told a lot of lies surrounding H1B, so I wouldn’t put it past him to pull a fast one on these American workers.
And you think President Trump would allow that?
Clarion, I remember that Musk crudely expressed his opinion about people who want to reduce the H1B program.
But I don’t recall any lies he told about it. Could you please refresh my memory? Thanks.
Clarion had to post her anti Musk/President Trump comment for the day
Alternatively, they could decline the offer, start showing up at work in the office, and doing their job – or get fired with no severance package…
There’s a long thread here, no thread reader available.
I noticed something like this decades ago with a local either non-profit, or not-for profit ( I hear there’s a difference but I don’t know what it is), it helped to turn me off to basically the whole idea of charities, or at least major ones, so many more or less existed to give connected people salaries commensurate with their inflated egos.

It’s a big club. And we are not in it.
Starting 50 years ago, the Saudis started funding “Think Tanks,” where the military top brass could go after retirement and receive pay commensurate to reward them. Donald Rumsfeld and the rest of the Nixon White House aides were all in on this idea, as a way to get around low pay for public service. These revolving door outfits have proliferated in the years since.

USAID funneled $53 million to EcoHealth Alliance, which then used U.S. taxpayer funds to support gain-of-function research on coronaviruses at the Wuhan lab—research that likely led to the creation of COVID-19. The CIA’s deception regarding COVID-19 origins becomes much clearer when considering USAID’s long history of serving as a CIA front organization.

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f6a8.svg BREAKING: USAID Senior Officials put on Leave after Physically Trying to stop DOGE from accessing Agency Systems
Two USAID officials, John Voorhees and his deputy, were put on leave late Saturday night after refusing to allow DOGE members access to USAID systems. The DOGE members threatened to physically call the police after being refused entry. They were trying to access the security and personnel files.
Federal Officials are concerned that Trump is trying to fold USAID into the US State Department in an effort to cut Government corruption and bloat.
USAID employs approx. 10,000 people, excluding contractors, with 2/3 of them overseas. 60 USAID members were already put on leave last week after trying to circumvent President Trump’s executive order on stopping foreign aid.
“USAID employs approx. 10,000 people, excluding contractors”

Denmark Grants Russian-Owned Company Permit for Nord Stream 2 Pipeline Work
Nord Stream 2 was damaged by explosions in September 2022, leading to four gas leaks—two in Sweden’s economic zone and two in Denmark’s waters.
by TVP World | January 29, 2025, 11:28 am
Denmark Grants Russian-Owned Company Permit for Nord Stream 2 Pipeline Work. The company plans to seal the damaged pipeline to prevent further gas leaks. Denmark’s Energy Agency has granted a permit to the Russian-owned company Nord Stream 2 AG to conduct preservation work on the damaged Nord Stream 2 Baltic pipeline by sealing its open ends to prevent further damage.
The Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 pipelines transport natural gas from Russia to Germany and cross the exclusive economic zones of Russia, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and Germany.
Russia should demand for hefty price tag for rebuilding nordstream and gas for cost they inflicted on him and his countrymen.

Obviously I’m not a fan of CNN. Their reporting on the issue of USAID is just simply way off.
I believe Elon Musk is right on this one when he says, “They are a criminal organization”. They go around wreaking havoc, with their color revolutions, all under the guise of humanitarian aid. They are using the standard line for those things they don’t want exposed…it violates “National Security”
There’s a new sheriff in town and he knows about your duplicity. Everywhere Samantha Powers went she wreaked havoc.
“Senior USAID security officials put on leave after attempting to refuse Musk’s DOGE access to agency systems”
Excerpts:
The State Department doesn’t “have the capacity, the expertise, the training to do that kind of work. It is a completely separate line of effort that is undertaken on the ground,” a former senior USAID official said.
What they really mean is, if you shut down USAID we will have no way to funnel money to our friends and family heading NGOs. Of course the State Department could handle “that kind of work”. The point is President Trump has put a pause on ALL Foreign Funding. Clearly he knows exactly the rot that is within USAID.

I did not realize Mike Rogers was a bad guy. I thought he was a good guy and exposed 702.
Looks like he did not sign the letter.
I guess I was wrong.
On or shortly after March 9, 2016, NSA Director Rogers became aware of improper access to raw FISA data
On March 9, 2016, DOJ oversight personnel conducting a minimization review at the FBI’s [Redacted] learned that the FBI had disclosed raw FISA information, including but not limited to Section 702-acquired information, to a [Redacted] Compliance Report at 92.
FISA access was being granted to private contractors:
[Redacted] is part of the [Redacted] and “is largely staffed by private contractors” [Redacted] certain [Redacted] contractors had access to raw FISA information on FBI storage systems [Redacted].
And the FISA access appeared to be quite broad:
The apparent purpose for the FBI’s granting such access was to receive analytical assistance from [Redacted]. Nonetheless, the [Redacted] contractors had access to raw FISA information that went well beyond what was necessary to respond to the FBI’s requests; [Redacted].
On April 18 2016, Director Rogers shut down FBI/DOJ contractor access to the FISA data.
The FBI discontinued the above-described access to raw FISA information as of April 18, 2016.
The way it used to work in DC is that if your name and signature was added to a letter like this, and you objected, your security clearances would be revoked. They did this to Devin Nunes and Rogers.
There are ( 2 ) Mike Rogers…
ADMIRAL Mike Rodgers – Director of the NSA
Rep Mike Rodgers, MI- 8 ( R ) – Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence ; Ran for SENATE in MICHIGAN;
Wife Ran a SECURITY GROUP Out of Britain that WAS INVOLVED in BENGHAZI ASSASSINATION of AMBASSADOR STEVENS and the ATTEMPTED COVER UP of MANPADS / ARMS Going to SYRIA

This will only escalate until far left and Dem State Officials are charged with interfering with legal proceedings or other statutes.
Ice should challenge each of these protester as to their residence status and immediately arrest them if they are illegal.
Protest is fine. Shutting down commerce, bridges and freeways is not. it is a safety issue.
It is an issue of stopping us from living our lives — earning a living, sending kids to school, obtaining needed goods and services.
People waving flags from other countries and stopping us from living our lives are enemy combatants.

The octopus known as USAID….. take a gander.

We have a serious, SERIOUS Problem when you look at that thread.
Well hey……what do you make of this?
“BREAKING: NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte just agreed with President Trump on Greenland and is calling on Denmark to immediately begin negotiations. ”
Very interesting.
Are there any sweeter words than “President Trump was right” ?

Amazing.
Ain’t it?
Daddy’s back and he’s got their attention.
Maybe President Trump is getting Greenland squared away before he gets us out of the NATO?
o.0
Heck, he’s liable to own NATO before long. lol!
Gonna give this a try:
It worked!
“Quick, negotiate for something before you get nothing…if they decide to take it with the blessings of the Greenland people, we can’t stop them.“
Oh the outrage of it all!
Such a mean Daddy!
LOL!!!
Where’s the Money?
I’m shocked. Shocked I tell you!
I hope Elon’s posse can track those dollars down.
Just don’t know where all that money went. sniff sniff
It feels so good seeing that counter reset.

South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY. It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention. A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see. The United States won’t stand for it, we will act. Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!
Offer safe haven to those certain classes of people!!! If anyone needs TPS it’s the persecuted of South Africa!!
Get all those farmers here. They are great “dry land” farmers and are expert at stretching water resources. They would do great in the Imperial Valley, California.
Not stated …. this all started to happen AFTER a visit to South Africa by one Mr. Barrack Obama.
The Trump pump.
Big, beautiful water.

New CIA Director: Evidence Didn’t Support Brennan’s Explosive Trump-Russia Assessment
“… The new CIA director has since broken his silence and revealed information that is inconvenient for many in the media who still hold fast to the Trump-Russia storyline. Things could get more inconvenient as Obama-era intelligence is finally declassified….”

There’ll likely be a whole bunch of these inconvenient truths flying around real soon.
Prayers up for Director Ratcliffe’s safety, protection and well being, and the same for every other official now fighting for our freedom.
Yes indeed Ma… here’s another one

Sunlight being brought to 10 full years of every kind of punishment’ against Donald Trump. Hopefully there will be even farther-reaching revelations & disinfectant Sunlight on every guilty individual.
May the light be harsh, glaring and inescapable.
President Trump tapped Mr. Driscoll, an FBI veteran, to lead the bureau temporarily while his nominee for director, Kash Patel, goes through the Senate confirmation process. But questions remain over whether Mr. Driscoll can stay in the job before Mr. Patel is confirmed and sworn in.
Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove on Friday ordered Mr. Driscoll to compile a list of all current and former FBI employees assigned “at any time” to the investigation of the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol for review “to determine whether any additional personnel actions are necessary.”
Outing themselves left, right, & center; good.
Shaky ground? I’d say more like quicksand.
Bye bye, Mr. Driscoll.
Time for a new “acting.”
Wow, this weekend has been a wake-up call for how corrupt Canada is. I didn’t realize it was Mexico-tier bad. Some highly recommended reading:
Canada Is A Failed State

Twitter thread about the sheer amount of fentanyl, money laundering, and cartel corruption coming out of Canada:
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1884813232201674799.html
The “Canada is a Failed State” substack is quite the read 😬😳
MORE .. MORE .. FASTER FASTER .. HANDCUFFS ON .. LEG IRONS ON .. CONFISCATE PHONES
“According to sources, at least 20 FBI executive assistant directors, assistant directors and special agents in charge throughout the U.S. were forced out of the agency on Thursday.
FBI officials who lost their posts or were forced to retire include Jeffrey Veltri, special agent in charge of the Miami field office; Spencer Evans, special agent in charge of the Las Vegas field office; and David Sundberg, assistant director in charge of the Washington, D.C., field office.
The Times also learned that squads of FBI agents were escorted out of field offices in New York, Miami and Washington. Agents who were escorted from the Miami office were involved in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.”
The only thing they have been doing for the past 10 years is to unconstitutionally come after American citizens ……….. we don’t need to have them in the FBI, at all.
Great to hear about the Las Vegas field office. Thank you!!
Maybe we could finally find out why all those people were shot at the music festival.
NEW — The Trump administration is terminating an immigration program that currently protects hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan migrants in the U.S. from deportation, paving the way for many of them to lose their legal status this spring. (CBS News)

Mayorkas: “We’re not responsible for the border crisis. Only Congress can fix it.”
Biden & MSM: “Congress must act!”
🚨 FACT CHECK: In just 10 DAYS, Trump secured the border, empowered CBP & ICE, and began deporting criminal aliens!
The invasion was INTENTIONAL.
The “Congress must act” narrative?
A LIE.

Government funded propaganda and attacks. There was legitimacy to some of the Musk attacks – but there is a whole lot more starting about 1/3rd f the way through the article unrelated to Musk.

Speaking of USAID, corrupt media, and terrorists employed by USAID…
Yes…
He gets it…as more and more countries will.
In light of the knowledge that the IRS has been using AI to track financial transactions, it would be interesting to revisit this topic raise by Herridge last year…
Has the CDC/FDA/HHS been preventing the use of anti-parasitics as antivirals ? First HCQ then IVM next Nitazoxanide?
Norovirus is now prevalent in the US. Did White House pandemic office advise Biden to stockpile and distribute Nitazoxanide?
Protect physicians who prescribe FDA approved antiparasitics as antivirals.

2) Nitazoxanide stops norovirus replication journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128…
3) Nitazoxanide stops Ebola replication pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3140…
4) Nitazoxanide is also an anti parasitic pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1579…
HCQ (Hydoxychloroquine/Chloroquine) IVM (Ivermectin) and now Nitazoxanide have been shown to have anti-parasitic and antiviral properties.
Did the Biden Administration stockpile these medications before he left office for use against biological weapons that may be being released upon we the people of the United States? Was Dr Anthony Fauci and others aware?
Is it time to release the Nitazoxanide supply for independent Physicans to prescribe as they see fit to their patients?
Will Trump protect the rights of independent Physicans who recognize the benefit of using Antiparasitic medications as antivirals?
Will Trump stop the GPO stranglehold over production of medications and pricing ?
