The propagandists are out in full force today fearmongering the end of “free trade”. They are lying liars who lie.
There never was “free trade”. All the “free trade” agreements were spun as such but in fact were managed trade capitulation by the USA to allow foreign nations to tariff our goods and prevent us from doing the same.
Free Trade does benefit both parties but there is, in actuality, very little of it between nations.
The free market hates competition.
TDS influencers get paid one concern meme at a time.
Main focus was literally offshoring manufacturing and it worked.
.
Company owners/shareholders who from the 90s on moved their manufacturing out of the U.S. because it was cheaper are now upset because they might not make as much money. Oh, waaaa. They got plenty rich doing this, and Trump is doing his damnedest to help them move back.
.
One of my cousins who is a very high level exec in a Building company (he’s one of us) told me 15 years ago during a conversation that their last manufacturing plant in NC was going to have to close because they could not compete with non-American companies who did not have all the expensive and expansive regulations,taxes, Unions etc which were purposefully implemented to drive out American manufacturing. Those who warned us about this, and surprisingly there were many Democrats back then, were correct and Pat Buchanan has been proven prophetic and his biggest enemies were the Globalist-Bush Republicans, CFR-IC run media, and the Chinese.
Our President was right about the Global Warming money-laundering Psyop early on. I caught onto it with immigration. President Trump is the real environmentalist for his immigration policies.
Just had a conversation this morning after church about this very topic. What I have found is most people are completly clueless and know not that they are actually fighting against their own best interests when they listen to and parrot the MSM talking points. I was quick to speak up, and will do so again and again. We can be a a tool to beat back the lies.

JLo needs to be questioned about her relationship with Sean Combs.

It’s fashionable….they get brownie points in their social network.
Prior to this they were adopting minority children
Crazy Days and Nights has been covering this for a couple of years, referring to it as joining “the club.” Actresses.

You ever read McGowan’s stuff?
The Laurel Canyon series.
Is there more?
Yes. I used to download his stuff from Itunes and download it on my Ipod when walking my doggie. My favorite researcher, such a cool guy. It hit me hard when he died. He’s was working on the Lincoln assassination. Hes got some MK-ultra stuff and more.
Münchausen by proxy?
One “celebrity” said she enjoys having trans children because it makes HER more interesting. Huge egos and narcissistic personality disorder.

Fancy people like to be stylish.

These loony stars think it’s cool and attention getting to have children who are the product of latest the ‘fad’ and Hollywood crusade and the kids are just messed up from their parent’s absurd and immoral lifestyles.
They thought since they always spay and neuter their pets that
Trans is the newest have-to-have fad. It used to be adopting children from china. Then it went to Russia. What the heck is next? Liberalism is a sickness. It hurts the ones we should be protecting the most. Our kids.
Sound on….
Jill looks crazy enough to shoot somebody in the ear.
While this bill is a good idea, it doesn’t solve the real problem, that our government at all levels jumped at the chance to become effective dictators and wipe their feet on the Constitution over a cold virus, over FALSE information which was KNOWN to be false at the time; and the facts were known to anyone who bothered to look.
No one at all ran for office on fixing this so it never happens again, we are all pretending that “our side” had nothing to do with it.
Anybody know the status of Tina Peters, Mesa County Commissioner Colorado… she was/is in solitary for disputing 2020 election fraud
She was moved again to a prison in Denver. TPTB are ignoring DOJ requests for information about the case.
a DOJ worth its salt has ways to change that… if thats really what they are interested in….
We had a bill in Idaho that would have made it illegal to compel vaccines and some other measures to prevent the abuse that occurred with the Covid disaster. It passed the legislature and went to the Governor. He vetoed it. Can’t have people deciding these things for themselves.
After some negotiation and revisions, bill was signed.
Wow. I had not heard that. I usually do not listen to the local news. It is mostly nonsense.
Assorted thoughts: recently returned from a Caribbean trip, reaction to Trump was very positive (doing the right thing, gotta work for a living, last hope etc.). Tariffs: Anerica has been taken advantage of since the Marshall plan, opening of China and supported worldwide socialism, time to take care of the US citizen. Trump keeps the focus on somethings really wrong here: one sided lawfare, government dependency, lack of religious faith, uncontrolled spending, uniparty, false media narrative, government supported opposition, a war that shouldn’t have ever been with tentacles to the deep state. After this rant, I appreciate how much the Treehouse thrives by common sense and give thanks that President Trump had a generally supportive administration in line with his policies. Of course, I salute what he daily does trying to restore America as no one else can.
The last Blue Dog Democrat in the Senate Jim Webb, said the Democrat Party no longer represents the working men & women of America and is beholden to “Special Interest groups” (foreign lobbies also) and his views which were from the Blue Dog Democrat days were out of step with who really controls the DNC. Turns out he was right, but its also interesting his talk of Hillary Clinton’s DNC domination later in which they stole the DNC Primaries from Comrade Sanders in 2016.
Jim Webb: Views no longer compatible with Democratic Party
Of course Dems didn’t vote for it. They want us much 💰 in the coffers as they can get. It funds their lifestyles of the rich and famous.
Morning Ma’am,
Jim Webb’s reveals on the Democrats is priceless.
If your Scots-Irish, his book “Born Fighting” should be read.
He did me a big favor by calling out Affirmative Action for the lie that it is.
Hope your doing well. Spring is here.
If your Scots-Irish and a fighter for freedom, those countries need help. Both are being swamped by the globalist dictators, socialism bordering on communism and the native people are being outnumbered. Someone needs to ignite the fires of resistance and rebellion over there. Just saying.
Morning friend,
I’ve written before but most of the best of the Irish were massacred in the rebellion of 1798, and in modern times the Easter Rising, Irish Civil War, and the last of the Nationalists joined the Blueshirts went to Spain to fight the Communists and when they returned home were treated as pariahs and Ireland has been liberal ever since. Scotland had the Highlands cleansed, and the London’s use and waste of Scots blood in their numerous wars. The same could be said here as well. The Iraq war being an obvious.
Ty for your input
Hello Colkitto. Thanks for the recommendation. Yes Irish, my great great….grandfather was a Baron in Ireland and lived in a castle that is still there. He packed up and moved to this country in 1608. It’s a fascinating tale. It is just unbelievable what the Marxist/Globalists have done to that country and her people.
That would be the end of the Gaelic Order and the Flight Of The Earls. Interestingly enough, once the coalition of O’Neill,O’Donnell, & the Maguires in the North were defeated at Kinsale and a few years later were driven out by London, the Plantation project started of bringing in Scots, and Northern Borderland English settlers who became the Scots-Irish. This was a predecessor hundreds of years earlier of what they are doing today treasonously bringing in non-Western peoples to every non-Orthodox Christian controlled nation.
So your ancestors were part of the Flight Of The Earls. Many of mine were with the Jacobites in the war against William Orange who was a fraud but was pushed by the bankers based in the Netherlands.
So fascinatingly your ancestor was a Irish Nationalist all the way back then.
If you like to read I loved “The Twilight Lords” which was about the Desmond Wars and the 9 Years War. Red Hugh & Hugh O’Neill were 2 of Ireland’s greatest heroes and mine as well. Walt Disney did a decent 60’s movie about Red Hugh.

Yep, they have been FRAUDS all along……..
Now, follow the money!
I tried to post this yesterday but something glitched.
BTW, what else happened in 2019, and what did it do for Amazon, and why is no one going to prison for life over their parts in it?
Bringing back manufacturing but raising the cap on H1B and giving amnesty to illegals who register and leave for a timeout is not very likely to help Americans much in the long run, IMO.
This happened way before Amazon. My father patented several things, among them a very useful type of wrench. The patent was stolen by china, manufactured there by kids making less than a dollar a day, & then sold in sears stores in America. My father bankrupted himself fighting it.
The politicians that allowed this need to be prosecuted. They need to be put in jail.
Americans can’t compete with Chinese slaves stealing American intellectual property, AND illegal alien slaves, AND H-1B student slaves.
The people that created that system stole the wealth from an entire generation of Americans, and these people are largely still in charge. Nancy Pelosi is STILL sitting in congress making hundreds of millions selling America out.
Jail.
My father patented several things, among them a very useful type of wrench. The patent was stolen by china, manufactured there by kids making less than a dollar a day, & then sold in sears stores in America.
The only ones who have any chance of enforcing patents against the CCP’s thief culture are huge corporations that, via governments, can prevent the sale of violating items in countries other than China. Even if one has a fortune to spend trying to get a legal remedy IN China, that won’t work.

***Past, long term, extreme poverty and starvation has led to China being a THIEF CULTURE to this very day.***
In Chinese culture, theft is accepted and even admired. It is punished by the government which is itself massively corrupt only if it makes the headlines or, worse, international headlines like the nutrition free baby formula sold there. That guy was executed.
There’s a westerner who lived in and traveled around China for years on a motorcycle who produced a video series on YouTube. One was about when he and a friend were nearly killed by a poisonous counterfeit “name brand” liquor. Such beers, wines, and liquors are bought in seemingly reputable establishments. So, they’ll even gladly poison their own to make a few rmb.

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to deepen the understanding of Chinese counterfeit phenomenon by exploring the effect of culture. Counterfeit activities are shaped by Chinese historical, social and political reasons. Intellectual property rights protections don’t have an obvious presence on Chinese soil. The discussion of counterfeit consumer behavior research via the effect of culture is provided.

Good morning,
I’ve posted this a couple of times as the discussions led… so this is the last time I’ll post this. I can’t stay immersed in this stuff for my own well being. I learn what I can and then move forward. I will post more as I learn more new things.
I infiltrated a Democrat town hall in Indianapolis (Andre Carson) because I wanted to see what they were doing and how they were mobilizing. In the chat, people were encouraging liberals to follow this thread for information about protests.
Reddit 50501 – 50 protests 50 cities 1 day
If you want to get an idea what they’re thinking and doing… there are posts to try to stay ahead of them.
Because of our First Amendment which we all enjoy… I don’t believe anything will be done to surpress these protests, but the minute they become riots with violence it becomes another thing entirely. Then it will be the indoctrination of the local authorities to stop the riot or allow the cities’ destruction. Having lived in close proximity to the L.A. riots, I believe we should stop rebuilding that which they destroy. Let them live amongst their rubble. You can’t give tyrants nice things and you shouldn’t keep rewarding petulant, destructive children.
The mental illness has turned many rabid. Their souls are hardened and they can’t see, hear, or internalize the Truth. They blindly follow to their own demise.
There is no negotiation with terrorists, the mentally ill, or the criminally corrupt.
Blessings and safety to all our Treepers

Father God, open their eyes to the exploits. Fill them with The Holy Spirit so they may choose Life, Light, Truth, and Dignity. Cast out demons for satan is a ravaging lion seeking to destroy all he can. his time is short for he is a defeated foe.
Bless us with deep faith, hope, love and perseverance as we walk in these interesting times. Father, You deemed us worthy to witness Your Greatness, so let not our hearts be troubled as we see Your Will in these end times come to pass. We keep our lamps lit and our eyes focused solely on You.
In Jesus’s Holy and Saving Name, we pray, AMEN
Amen!
Ty JWoo. I have done that in the past. I’ve also witnessed pre-Antifa Antifa stirring up peaceful protests and trying to barge into a Populist Party meeting with speaker Samuel Francis one of my all time favorite Populist writers at a hotel. So much for our “Free Speech” rights. These people are nuts as Dr Rositter, Rush Limbaugh, and Michael Savage have pointed out.
I give you loads of credit for doing this. Thank you and be well.
Colkitto, dear brother…
I admit that I have not necessarily done this of my own volition – I am merely following The Holy Spirit living within me and it is placing me in vantage points I would never have dreamed I would be in.
In the moments when I stand amongst them – I am questioning “Why am I here? Why am I witnessing what I am witnessing?” and then I stay still, get quiet, listen and observe carefully. I look at the scenery around the situation, too, and the participants – I practice the “six degrees of Kevin Bacon” game. We all need to learn that game and use it a lot for risk assessment.
Then, situations like yesterday arise and suddenly those circumstances take meaning and The Divine Purpose of The Why comes to fruition. God’s Word does not return void, nor does He waste our time or our efforts when we commit our ways to Him – He makes our paths straight.
So friend… more revelations today. This time about workings within churches with manipulative political birthings.
I encourage anyone who receives the pull on their Spirit to “Go!” to do so without question or delay. God is using us as watchmen and He Will Tell us when and how to use what we hear and learn. Romans 8:28 He works all things for the good of those who love Him and who are called according to His Purposes. (All things… good and bad.) Be willing. Be malleable. Tuck into His Spirit and find your peace and solace there in Him. He shelters us. Loves us. Protects us. He equips us with all we need to get through whatever He brings us to. Have faith. Speak Life.
The credit is not mine. Mine is obedience. Plain and simple.
Thank you for the link. It makes me said to realize that most of my family was at these protests. Many really good people are going to be hated for doing the right thing while demonic people are praised to the sky.
Amen!
Some tariffs are more equal than others.
“We’re broke.” – VDH
Mexico – $175 Billion trade surplus plus the $63 Billion they get from remittances from illegals. The only reason they can send that money home is because of getting government subsidies. Stop giving them the subsidies and the remittance would be greatly reduced. Tax those remittances 100%.
Everyone should watch this short clip. Victor Davis Hanson summarizes the Tariff issue so clearly and concisely.
Well worth 4:27 minutes of your time if you want to understand what’s going on.
If we are seeing extreme gaslighting regarding tariffs, then ask yourself why they need to gaslight so much?
The answer: they know President Trump is right about the Tariff issue and gaslighting is the only thing they have left in their quiver.
As they say, pound the opposition by putting the facts on the table and when you don’t have the facts then just pound the table.
Lots of table pounding/gaslighting taking place right now.
The goal is to form an “everyone BUT China” trading group.
Trump’s Tariffs Plan Part of ‘Global Repositioning Against Communist China’ | JD Dambacher (10:47)

British bullsheet, don’t waste your time
Former Senator Jim Webb is a fantastic author and a highly decorated veteran. He did me and untold numbers of other Heritage Americans a huge favor by bringing up at one of the 2016 Democrat Primaries that (Unconstitutional) Affirmative Action had been changed from its original intent and weaponized against White & Black people in favor of immigrants and their descendants (“New Replacement Americans”) for jobs.
Millions of former Blue Dog Democrats have jumped on the President Donald J Trump MAGA ship as well as millions of Black former Democrat voters because of these policies that the article and Jim Webb has pointed out. PDJT’s coalition is far more expansive than the Reagan’s. Former Virginia Senator Jim Webb one of the last decent Senate D’s tells it like it is. It’s a discussion of the Marxist-Democrats Demographic revolution in terms of political power and how more and more Whites & Black Democrats are being pushed aside within the DNC.
Jim Webb’s Struggles Highlight A Demographic Shift In The Democratic Party
https://www.npr.org/2015/10/20/450321095/jim-webbs-struggles-highlight-a-demographic-shift-in-the-democratic-party
Most of the Affirmative Action building around Atlanta has the old line,
long time connected white families in the background. The affirmative
action company heads were middle men.
I haven’t kept up with this lately, but the thing that I always thought
was ironic was the TRUE people behind the affirmative action, especially
construction firms great grandpas probably owned some of the people
that they were backing.
The woke agenda is that women must submit……https://www.usafencing.org/
Food for thought….if an anonymous trans criminal committed a murder and left some important DNA at the scene….it just might determine the number of X and Y chromosomes….anonymously. No trans differentiation. Just ‘evidence’?
China expert warns Xi regime could be on the ‘cliff of disintegration’ (1:44)
5 Apr 2025
My one concern (not a troll), Xi/CCP won’t go down without a fight. The Dragon will rear its head and strike out militarily.
The Chinese people, every two or three hundred years, rise up, grab their knives, and slaughter every single person in the ruling dynasty. History documents this very well. The Communist Dynasty will be no different, because the Chinese people keep scores for generations, and they settle those scores with the descendants of their persecutors. The millions of Chinese dead, from the Great Leap Forward and from Mao’s Cultural Revolution, will eventually be avenged. Then history will change. The Xi regime knows this.
The Globalists have been propping them up using the “Free Trade” treason which Pat Buchanan called it way back when. Our America First President using tariffs should end the subsidization of their totalitarianism and hopefully help collapse it.
Council On Foreign Relations GHWB’s “NWO” speech, their planned demolition of America and the rise of their Liberal-totalitarian super-polluter China. A Populist was never supposed to rise to become the President with the popularity,charisma, willpower,tenacity, patriotism, and intelligence of President Donald J Trump to stop them and save our Republic.
Its why they’ve been destroying any Populist that tries to rise like Goldwater,Buchanan,Dr Paul. They even destroy D’s like Edwards,Webb and Dean. In Dean’s case it wasn’t that he was a Populist it was because he was going to do something to stop/hinder Pike’s WWIII.
And yet he did rise.
Free at last. Free at last. Thank God almighty, we are free at last.
“LIBERATION DAY” indeed.
Is China on the cliff of disintegration? Or is just the corrupt Communist regime at the top of China on the cliff of disintegration?
Do you see the difference/distinction?
I don’t believe the 1.3 billion Chinese citizens are the problem. The corrupt Globalist/Communist leadership (or those who control it) is the problem.
Similarly, I don’t believe the 330 million American citizens have been the problem. The corrupt Globalist leadership (or those who control it) have been the problem.
The corrupt Globalist leadership in the U.S. is being purged/removed and replaced with a Nationalist leadership. A Nationalist leadership that promotes strong, sovereign and independent nations across the globe.
Is the very same thing occurring in China?
Do you see the common thread stitched through everything: corrupt Globalist leadership.
We’ll see what happens.
And what will be done of it? Nothing! 🥱 This just reenforces to the left that fraudulent elections still work!!! Don’t be surprised when the House switches in 2028 because of massive fraud!!! JMO
…if ….it will be 2026…..
I’ve been a Populist for decades like our President Donald J Trump is. He’s talking about the Hegelian Dialectic political binary system used in most western “Democracies”. Enoch Powell of the UK in the 60’s-70’s figured it out I believe first, or perhaps Goldwater.
Is this legit? It sounds like it isn’t really what happened. Can it be proven as actual communication between these people? I’m not buying this. Too good to be true.
What makes this even worse is that nothing is being done about it other than revealing the truth. The opponent should fight for a recount.
When NJ Covid Nursing home murderer Governor stole the last race his fake R opponent let him win and didn’t fight. This has been NJ politics and national politics for decades. The Rino’s helped stop Buchanan in 96.
the GOP is 100% in on all of this election rigging. They are fine being the lovable losers as long as they share fairly in the graft and payola. No way all of this systematic vote fraud could have evolved to its current level without GOP support (or looking away on-purpose).
If team Trump doesn’t do something big here, 2026 will be a repeat of 2018 and 2020. Trump talked big about election fraud for 4 years after the 2020 steal. Now he is President because we outvoted the fraud and also voted in a GOP house and senate. Fix it now or just shut up about it. I’m pretty sick of all of this. It is well documented how all of these illegal ballots are being created and tabulated. Fixing it wouldn’t be complicated at all.
BTW: i kinda wonder if this post is legit. It kinda smells “doctored” to me, but it should be looked into.
Beautiful Losers Samuel Francis called them
Q: GOP controls the Wisconsin legislature, why have they not ensured election integrity? A: GOP is fake opposition.
Hegelian Dialectics. Two Parties or Teams that are supposed to oppose each other. If the same money buys both parties which I encountered first hand in NJ long ago, they control both parties and what gets discussed and advanced in the political circus arena. It really became obvious with the Council On Foreign Relations Administrations of the Bushes/Clintons/Obama-Biden.
Mark Levin: We’ve never seen anything like this (20:28)
5 Apr 2025
Levin has a huge following, unfortunately nothing gets done with his incessant blathering, RUN FOR OFFICE if you know how to fix it
I am not a huge fan of Levin but he has a lot of good historical information and he explains things well. This one is really informative on the tariffs, the economy, money, inflation and what Pres. Trump is doing. I thought this was excellent and will be passing it along to my group, both liberal lefties and conservative MAGAs. This is the kind of factual explanation, with real data to back it up, that people need to know and it’s done in a way most everyone can understand clearly.
Yes. Excellent!
Yes, good analysis by Levin. Even Milton Friedman (meh) who was not a fan of tariffs, said it was Monetary Policy that hurt the Great Depression (which was an Economic Plandemic to install Socialism).

fauxtestors – great word!!!
This happened to a kid at work’s father 4 years ago, the illegal was drunk and took off after running him over on his motorcycle.
Back in the 90’s after the NAFTA treason increased illegal invaders from Mexico and points south where I used to live, the joke was the illegals were more free than us citizens because they could drive without licenses, registration, and insurance, while we had to or we would be thrown in jail and they wouldn’t.
Deport every damned one of them!!
Elon Musk has uncovered what he thinks is fraud at Social Security. It is very likely NOT fraud.
That’s okay, people make mistakes.
What’s not okay is when people push for solutions to problems that don’t exist, especially if those proposed solutions push us further along into a dystopian security state.
Another thing, if you solve the wrong problem, you leave a problem that needs a solution untouched.
No – making mistakes with OUR Social Security is NOT okay.
And it also makes me wonder what else he and his team have effed up along the way and are not telling us.
You have a valid point. In this instance, what he thinks is fraud is just policy.
It’s still evidence that he doesn’t quite understand what he’s doing, unless he does understand and is playing dumb.
In any case, it’s a discrepancy that needs straightening out.
My concern is that the claim of fraud will be used to require biometric ID from Americans in order to access our benefits, and that information will be available to all government agencies.
I corrected you below with the UN-Federal Reserve causing the Stock Market crash which caused a shift in the Elites here not tariffs.
This is an old gold expose on Council On Foreign Relations Bill Clinton a Bush stepson’s then plans to “play” with SSI. I can remember soon after the NAFTA treason the bailing out of Mexico known as the Peso bailout.
Clinton’s Bait-and-Switch Social Security Plan
https://www.heritage.org/social-security/report/clintons-bait-and-switch-social-security-plan
The commenter stated an opinion, not a fact. Now you are reinforcing that opinion and trying to make it seem like a fact.
Doing a review and thorough audit to determine facts is useful. Trying to undermine a review is stupid.
People seriously trying to improve systems determine facts. People spewing their ideas to see what sticks are spreading propaganda.
That’s the point, the number of non-citizens issued SSNs is not evidence of fraud. Yes, there was illegal voting among that number. There is illegal voting among legal green card holders too. They get confused at the DMV sometimes, because “the government” just registered them to vote.
However, that is not the same thing as social security fraud.
Everything about it is fraudulent.
The people will decide – if they ever hear the story.
Issuing SSNs to non-citizens is fraud.
Even if Musk was unaware of all the arcane rules, the Big Picture is that the Invasion should not have been sponsored by our Domestick Enemies in the first place.
No, it’s law.
Get out of here with this silliness. It’s fraud because it’s intentional.
we all know there is fraud
everywhere
How did you decide “it is very likely not fraud”?
The fact is you stated your opinion and want to make it seem like the truth.
Whether or not what Elon is referring to is fraud is under review. And unless you are a data ana!yst who has access to the SS data and have done an audit, and unless that audit has been reviewed, or unless other analysts have done so, you do not know if there is fraud or not. It is disingenuous to post your opinion as fact. That or you have an agenda.
Additionally, logic tells us there is fraud. The government systems Elon’s team has reviewed to date show fraud is not only present, but rampant. If you are waiting for further reviews before accepting this, I can understand that. But meanwhile you must accept that for SS and all other systems there are more than enough reasons to do thorough audits before stating anything as fact.
What is a problem is refusing to look at problems. Typically the people causing the problem are the ones who try to keep the problem from being discovered and resolved.
“How did you decide “it is very likely not fraud”?”
Because it correlates with the rise in the number of foreigners they gave EAD authorization to work to; and they give SSNs to those people.
It’s David Stockman, formerly of the Reagan OMB, who is looking at Elon’s numbers and saying that they aren’t proof of fraud.
Here’s why:
Just in case you are interested in facts, Elon Musk and DOGE’s claim that 5.5 million illegal aliens got Social Security numbers during the Biden Administration (2021-2024) is a true fact that proves nothing about fraud or siphoning funds from Social Security.
David Stockman – another so called brain trust lol
My thoughts exactly.
Magical thinking gets none of us anyplace. The last three Obama administrations should gave proven that to everyone, but there seem to be some holdouts.
The point is I am interested in facts. The only way to get facts is to do an audit and that has not been completed.
You can’t spew your ideas, and neither can Stockman, and claim the ideas are facts.
One of the things looking into the system has already shown is many illegals have been given SS numbers. Other fraud problems are more complex and require a full audit of the data.
He said numerous times that DOGE will probably make mistakes, but they will be corrected. He is uncovering information for Pres. Trump and his team to then makes decisions on what to do about that information. Why blame him like you just did?
He has a task, he and his team are doing it to the best of their ability, and you trash him like so many on the left are doing without acknowledging what his role is in the DOGE investigations. He does NOT make any final decisions on action taken and if there is a mistake made, it’s found, recognized and fixed. That’s what he and his whole team said straight up in the interview with Brett Baer and also have said in other interviews.
The data he is using does not prove fraud in social security. That’s all I’m saying, and it’s a fact.
You want to take steps to prevent misuse of SS funds, fine, but you need data that shows that, it this doesn’t.
The Invasion was the Fraud. So all that follows is also Fraud.
👊 👊 👏 👍
Elon is showing the amount/effects of
the invasion.
And somehow it gets turned into…..
it’s not a fraud.
Taking the focus off of our invasion and
what is happening…..and concentrating
on….it’s not fraud.
😬 😣 😖 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔 🤔
Go figure.💁♀️🤷♀️ Things that make you
go hmmmmmm…..😉😉
I would bet that DOGE know much more than you do
They need to complete the audit. What is so hard to understand about that?
There’s a good article on Zerohedge about this. Illegals with ssns were able to get Medicaid in the 10s of millions. And thousands were able to register to vote in elections including federal. That sounds like a problem worth solving.
poppycock
Judicial tyranny has been going on here for decades, how do you think we became so anti-Christian? Through the courts and of course the Langley run Fake News media. I believe this is all coming to a head to be rectified. I’m an optimist.
Many of us watched the Kangaroo courts at the Hague against the Serbs and knew their was no real justice and the courts run by Kangaroo’s just like in Australia during the Bushranger days or of course Ireland/Scotland.
Nasir Oric the Bosnian commander at Srebrenica bragged about torturing and murdering Serbian villagers and farmers around the encampment, for months in the thousands. He even admitted this to a reporter in Canada. His sentencing was an abomination.
I think many of you know see the corruption of the Judicial systems, which are all intertwined. Especially with the court rulings against our President and many of his friends, and MAGA team members.
The UNDemocrats had to bring in and install foreigners to complete the corruption.
New York City practices Law by making up The Crime to fit the person on their radar.
It’s not logical that things can be rectified when the only chance for that was having a somewhat constitutional SC.
I agree. I think we are headed for Pat Buchanan warned about a long time ago.

Some taxes are less equal than others.
JOE ROGAN: “Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs? — Were you serious about that?”
DONALD TRUMP: “Sure, why not?”
Nothing wrong with having ideas.
“What have you got to lose?”
This is all a simple transfer of wealth from the middle class to the super rich.
Tariffs crash the stock market.
Billionaires buy up the stock.
Trump undoes the tariffs and the stock price goes back up.
I do think if Trump suddenly announces a policy reversal, he should be investigated. Unfortunately, he has already fired all of those people.
They are buying up the farmland, too. Yep – Vance has an app for that.
Bernie? Is that you?
Tariffs do not “crash the stock market”. The billionaires with $Trillions at stake in global trade crash the stock market to punish President Trump for trying to Make America Great Again.
The stock market is literally crashing right now.
And there is no indication that the bleeding will stop soon.
It wasn’t crashing pre-tariffs. So yes, tariffs (and everything associated with them) are crashing the market.
Go blame globalist for your problems. You had your head buried in the sand. You couldn’t see the problem so all was good right?
MAGA is gonna fix this stealing from the American CITIZENS.
People like Mark live in a Liberal Cognitive Dissonance bubble. Created by the Mockingbird fake news media.
Right and the tens of billions chairman biden created out of thin air has nothing to do with an over priced market. Go back to sleep.
This. But it wasn’t just Biden, it’s been decades of politicians overspending.
Of course it wasn’t crashing pre-tariff! People/groups/companies heavily invested in the stock market have been making money hand over fist for years! The system was rigged to achieve that goal.
What President Trump is doing is evening out the playing field and bringing some of the wealth back to Main St.

Cry harder.
Do you realize how a stock market correction was needed anyway and would have happened sooner if the markets weren’t being held up by Wall Street? By the federal reserve?How incredibly high it was being forced into? Went from around 45,000 to 42,000 which is so far above 5 years ago that you know it was pushed into that to possibly cover for Biden’s huge spending spree and inflation? The market is doing what it is being allowed to do and it will come back unless the anti Trump gangs wants it to crash further. Don’t blame Trump for that.
40 percent of all the dollars ever printed, printed in the last 5 years.
Helloooooo Mark
Surely you can tell me about historical valuation levels? Maybe that will help you understand the propping up. Sans that, you’re a carnival barker.
Buffet used to say “when there is blood in the streets, you buy”….
You understand, the next page in the globalist playbook is to crash the markets to create economic chaos?
I predicted this exact event, right here, weeks ago. Regardless of tariffs or not, the globalists need chaos and they need it right now, before the closets spill fully open.
The globalists are nothing if not predictable. I hope and pray they overplay their hand, once again, and overplay it very badly, and that then there’s a jiu jitsu Trump move waiting to take advantage.
(Yes, Ivanka posted the jiu jitsu video for a reason).
“Currency exchange.”
Accelerate.
Rip the dammed bandaid off and end the Fed and the federal reserve note debt slavery, for once and for all.
The bottom 50 percent of Americans who own no stocks and live in constant debt are waiting for liberation.
The top 8 percent of Americans who own 92 percent of stocks?
If they are smart, all they needed to do (tomorrow may not be too late) is be like Warren.
Buffett, that is. He is almost All in Treasuries.
It is this simple: Go to Cash and Wait to buy the crash when it finally happens and real price discovery occurs, and/ or own hard assets, just like Ed Dowd and many others have been advising FOR YEARS.
You don’t have to be a genius. Just observant.
You’re welcome.
critical thinking skills and research could be your friend

The Un-Federal Reserve crashed the stock market.
“That the Smoot-Hawley Tariff caused the Depression of the 1930s is a New Deal myth in which America’s schoolchildren have been indoctrinated for decades. The Depression began with the crash of the stock market in 1929, nine months before Smoot-Hawley became law. The real villain: The Federal Reserve…” Pat Buchanan

Go listen to the Mark Levin talk posted on this thread. You are in need of some educating on tariffs, taxes, inflation and the economy. Levin gives it with receipts. You might learn some truths.
LOL.
There are several balloons just waiting for the right pinprick:
Fraud in the tech sector.
Major fraud in the housing sector (FHA).
Commercial real estate extend and pretend is reaching its limits, which means the banks are all at risk, along with a lot of local government bonds issued on the basis of tax revenues from disastrously inflated real estate valuations.
The stock markets, you say?
There is no spoon.
Fascinating show. I didn’t realize things were so precarious…
Not a millionaire. Bought stock Friday. Stocks I have been watching for a long time waiting for a downturn. Did the same when the market dropped 3000 in March 2020. When the indexes soar to UNREASONABLE heights I sell to have cash for times like these. And if it continues to drop I’ll continue to buy in companies worthy of my money.

BEWARE of The Gospel Coalition
Mark Voegrop is the Pastor and one Spiritual Advisor of Mike Pence. He led a large, politically active, mega “church” in Central Indiana and led them into disaster… though media attention to such is being buried and scrubbed. I can attest to the Truth of the links I provide herein as a first-hand witness to what this person writes about.
I also have horrific stories from within the church that are too numerous to recount and confidences of former elders involved in the mass fracture. However, I can recount them and I will never shut up to expose these demons. There is also buried history of a former elder and his wife and administrator who admitted guilty to being a child sexual predator (prior to Voegrop taking the helm of the church – involved predecessor. The child was a member of the congregation too. But, there is much… much… much more. Lots of cash runs through that church. (I am not suicidal.)
Remember, the devil has a smooth tongue and he even knows scripture. he seeks to devour and destroy, suppress, and enslave. Please BEWARE. When your Spirit inclines you to caution… listen and verify. Listen. God Will Show you affirmations. Listen to Him and anything that is drawn into question – gracefully but quickly back away from it.
A sister in Christ in Canada is actively being shaken down for cash, gifts, and prizes by women with TGC. They’re making their rounds.
We are seeing a systematic breakdown of the churches due to the nicolaitans therein. When Jesus returns to wage war, He not only wars against the devil and demons, but also against the nicolaitans who were members of the church who acquiesced to the ways of the dark world and went along to get along – or worse yet – played their own games for power and greed considering the sheep of their church collateral.
We grow more than corn in Indiana – we grow dirty politicians (often using the church as a cover – wolves in sheep’s clothing).

Start your own congregation, the gifts of the Spirit are spelled out in Ephesians 4, cemetery (Seminary) is a cruel joke of DEMONation indoctrination
I’m not in position to start a congregation, nor would it be scriptural for me to lead one. Women have their clear places and the blurring of the lines have caused great problems.
The gender warfare they have created is the most evil of all the divisions they have sown.

Much respect to you. In fact you have the tenacity of Pauline Hanson.
Fake News. Trump called it out in the very beginning. The left is wildly successful in getting their brainwashing messages out because, like it or not, a lot of people still have dinner with the media news blasting on their tvs. That hasn’t changed and hasn’t been addressed. I get it. Older people thing and a cord cutter thing as well, but it remains a problem for conservatives voters. We need to buy out a major network. The left has convinced vulnerable populations that DOGE is going to take their social security and medicare. The networks convinced the country that they needed covid shots and masks or they would die. They stifle natural curiosity.
“Why you fool, it’s the educated reader who CAN be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they’re all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem. We have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the high-brow weeklies, don’t need reconditioning. They’re all right already. They’ll believe anything.”

No need to imagine—Obama did something worse than any president in history. He used the full weight of the federal government to orchestrate a smear campaign framing his successor as a Russian agent. It remains the most disgraceful abuse of power in modern American politics.
Those Gestapo tactics will turn your lips purple.
His attempts to destroy America should be the main theme of his presidential library which is costing a small fortune.
and the most important part of that is everyone knows what was done, knows who was involved, and also knows not one single thing will ever be done about it. Add to that all of the conspiracies against Trump orchestrated by law enforcement after he left office in Jan 2021. These people are cocky and have no fear for a reason. Big talkers on site comments sections don’t bring justice. Neither do click-bait fake journalism “BREAKING!!!!” stories.
Trump can talk all he wants about bring justice to these people. It will not happen. Also, our judicial system was neck-deep in all the get-Trump stuff. No doubt about that.
He had lots of help from old “Justice Roberts” finding that Obamacare was Constitutional after all becuse it really is just a new tax.

Trump’s British Empire (11:51)
Apr 4, 2025
Donald Trump is the only US president to also own property in the UK – in fact, he has something of a property empire encompassing two huge estates in Scotland. I decided to investigate Trump Turnberry, his most famous. Join me as we explore the many buildings and their fascinating history, and uncover links to another very famous US president and a less well-known private apartment inside a Scottish castle.
Very nice, thank you Winston!

Their ‘democracy’ is also known as ‘mob rule’, and mobs are dangerous.
I bought into the “conservative” free trade orthodoxy, then watched my hometown Buffalo fall apart as our heavy industries moved overseas.
The problem isn’t free trade per se. President Trump’s stated goal is a zero tariff world on most goods (other than strategic industries and products such as steel, pharma, etc).
We were lied to by the propagandists and their globalist masters. There never was “free trade”. All of the so called “free trade” agreements were managed trade to allow foreign nations to tariff our goods while preventing the USA from doing the same.
Now, after Ben Shapiro blasted the Administration concerning the tariffs, I read where Musk has come out against the tariffs saying that there should be no tariffs on the EU and a free trade zone between America and the EU. He blasted Navarro..
Shapiro is past his ‘best by’ date.
Here it is…
Elon Musk breaks with Trump admin on tariffs — as he slams Peter Navarro and says he wants ‘zero tariff situation’ with Europe – New York Post
Elon Musk appeared to split from the Trump administration on tariffs overnight — as he lashed out at trade adviser Peter Navarro and said he hoped for a “zero tariff situation” between the US and Europe.
The world’s richest man made the comments after President Trump announced sweeping tariffs against virtually every US trading partner last week.
The Tesla and SpaceX guru’s made very public swipes Saturday against Navarro, who is widely seen as one of the top architects of Trump’s tariff regime.
“A PhD in Econ from Harvard is a bad thing, not a good thing. Results in the ego/brains>>1 problem,” Musk vented on X Saturday in response to a user touting the trade adviser’s explanations of tariffs.
“At the end of the day, I hope it’s agreed that both Europe and the United States should move ideally, in my view, to a zero tariff situation, effectively creating a free trade zone between Europe and North America,” Musk said.
https://nypost.com/2025/04/06/us-news/elon-musk-appears-to-break-with-trump-admin-on-tariffs-slams-peter-navarro/
You mischaracterize what Musk said about the tariffs. What he said was that he hoped “eventually” the US and the EU could be in a “no tariffs at all” state of affairs. That was NOT saying that using reciprocal tariffs to get negotiations going that might ultimately get there was the wrong thing to do.
As to Navarro…..Musk doesn’t like him.
Do you remember when the left went crazy because they said President Trump was mocking a disabled person? They went crazy with their vitriol and lies.
Now it’s perfectly acceptable to Mock Musk’s autism. Now we have learned that 1 in 36 children have some form of autism. Why? Big Ag and Bug Pharma. You can watch the video if you want. It’s extremely disturbing.

But instead of condemning the attacks or calling out the criminals, the cast of Saturday Night Live decided to point the finger at Elon Musk.

Aside from mocking Elon Musk, they are violently attacking Tesla drivers. The left, eating their own. There was a Congressman who sold his Tesla and bought a gas guzzling Chevrolet.

Never fear, the Canadian police are investigating if this was “intentional”.
‘’Mostly Peaceful’ Rock Smashes Into Tesla, Seriously Injuring Pregnant Passenger. This Has Gone Too Far.”
Excerpts:
We’ve been reporting on the attacks on Teslas and their dealerships by leftist domestic terrorists who are inflamed that the electric car company’s founder, Elon Musk, has dared to take on the task of slashing federal government waste, fraud and abuse with his leadership at the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Numerous times, we have pointed out that this extremism will lead to severe injury or even death as these zealots don’t seem to care about human life, only ideology.
Although this latest episode didn’t occur in America—it happened just over the Canadian border in Vancouver—it’s extremely disturbing, and we can only be glad that it didn’t lead to a more tragic situation:
****
A pregnant woman sitting in the passenger seat of a Tesla EV was injured by a two-pound rock that smashed through the car windshield in Vancouver, Canada. Authorities are now investigating if the rock was intentionally thrown at the vehicle made by Elon Musk’s company.
Police said the Tesla was headed north on Nanaimo Street on the evening of March 30, and was struck by a rock as the electric vehicle passed East 27 Avenue, according to a report by Global News.

Just a reminder – remember this.
Nine House Republicans voted with all Democrats on Thursday to adopt a resolution holding former Trump White House strategist Stephen Bannon in contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena from the committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
The nine Republicans who broke with their party were Reps. Liz Cheney (Wyo.), Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.), Anthony Gonzalez (Ohio), Jaime Herrera Beutler (Wash.), John Katko (N.Y.), Adam Kinzinger (Ill.), Nancy Mace (S.C.), Peter Meijer (Mich.) and Fred Upton (Mich.).
The problem is that no, not every American has benefitted from our strong economy. Many of us are in the same boat as many Europeans, struggling to remain in the middle class in a global economy.
I’m not an expert on tariffs, but I do know whatever we’ve been doing for the last 30 years has destroyed the American dream for most Americans.
We have been in a leaking lifeboat for 80 years bailing it out with a cup. President Trump is simply trying to give us a bucket to use to keep us afloat. He would like to empty it and repair it, but that would require a lot more help than the passengers are willing to provide so far.
What does one call a ‘thru the hull fitting?’

That is the entire premise of PDJTs putting tariffs in place. It’s up to other countries whether or not to follow suit. Fair is fair, damn it. What is so hard about this for everyone to grasp?!
Mind boggling that all these big wig economist, and loud mouth talking heads never stop and say “well the other country has the opportunity to level the playing field, the ball is in their court.”
“appeared to split from the Trump administration on tariffs”.
Can someone take a serious look at this? I would really hate to see all the hard work by so many be for nothing, because we failed to address the health care mega-racket.
People are paying the equivalent of a month’s rent and Americans are unhealthier than ever.
“We have added 600,000 “health care” jobs over the last 12 months yet the non-institutional civilian population — a decent proxy for the change in population as a whole — has risen by 5.1 million. In other words you’re expecting me to believe that we need one health care worker for every 8.5 people in America.”
How they ever got people to think that adding a third party that needed to make money was going to benefit Americans is beyond me.
A New Presidential Visage On Mt. Rushmore?

First, it was D.O.G.E. which looked like “shock and awe” to many — but it wasn’t. After all the Senate Budget Committee a decade ago found that 8% of federal spending (of a much smaller size budget, mind you) was being spent on expired programs. Since the authorized appropriation on an expired program is zero, well…. yeah, that.
Second, tariffs. Not only appropriate but necessary. Heh, I get it, a lot of Congress doesn’t like it. I wonder why, considering how many of them seem to have, shall we say, foreign entanglements never mind all the nice pumped-up stock prices from offshoring labor and production (and they always seem to know when you buy and sell just like magic, don’t they?)
Third, you promised not to gut Medicare and Medicaid, nor VA health care, and so far yep, you’ve kept that promise — and you need to keep it. The VA contract found for “web site maintenance” is one of those galling things that clearly goes into abusive contract process and I’m sure its not the only one; there is never only one cockroach, after all.
But here’s the basic problem that remains — I’m sure you heard Stellantis talking about the cost to assemble a car in Canada. We all know the “attraction” Mexico has is cheaper labor, but Canada is a legit first-world nation with comparable wage and hour laws to ours, plus comparable environmental standards. They don’t, for example, dump raw sewage into the Detroit River under the Ambassador Bridge, where Mexico does do exactly that into the Tijuana River which pollutes our land and water in nearby San Diego.
So what’s the salient driving difference here?
Health care cost.
Not quality, cost.
https://market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=253098
Along with education, and religion…health care is one of the communist goals that ‘they’ aspire to in order to ‘control “We the People” ‘.
You can see it all below in the democrat playbook , # 1 healthcare , #6 education , # 7 religion .
(HOW TO CREATE A SOCIALIST STATE BY SAUL ALINSKY)
There are eight levels of control that must be obtained before you’re able to attain a socialist state , the first is the most important :
#1 Healthcare , control healthcare and you control the people .
#2) Poverty , increase the poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you’re providing everything for them to live.
#3) Debt , Increase the debt to an unsustainable level that way you’re able to increase taxes and this will produce more poverty.
#4) Gun control, remove peoples ability to defend themselves from the government , that way you are able to create a police state.
#5) Welfare ,Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food housing & income)
#6) Education , take control of what people read and listen to , take control of what children learn in school : Think Common core
#7) Religion , remove the belief in God from government & schools .
#8) Class warfare , divide the people into the healthy and the poor as this will provide more discontent and make it easier to “Tax” the wealthy with the support of the poor .
FAFO. This is an excellent response to ALL countries that refuse to take back their citizens that came here illegally. Furthermore, cut off ALL government subsidies to illegals and tax their remittances back home 100%.
“Trump Admin Revokes An Entire Country’s Visas For Refusing to Cooperate With Deportations”
Excerpts:
In a decisive move to hold the South Sudanese government accountable, the United States revoked all visas for South Sudanese nationals. It barred the issuance of any future visas until the government accepts the deportation of its citizens who have been ordered to leave the U.S. This bold action sends a clear message that America will not tolerate the lack of cooperation from foreign governments when it comes to the Trump administration’s deportations.
On Saturday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders would be revoked after the African nation refused to accept its nationals expelled from the U.S. Future visas will also not be issued, effective immediately.
Rubio accused the government in Juba of “taking advantage of the United States,” adding that “every country must accept the return of its citizens in a timely manner when another country…seeks to remove them.”

If we don’t allow Sudanese in, who will throw acid in people’s faces?
So, it’s day 77. Have there been any arrests, yet?
Just of some gangbangers . For an administration that claims to be all about law and order I expected so much more even though it’s 77 days in . Even the arrest of sanctuary city mayor would be nice since they continue to openly defy the Trump administration , Elon has been saying that the DOJ and FBI know exactly who’s funding these riots and is waiting on arrests .
Kash promoting a guy who took pride in arresting J6ers is almost too much to take .
Right. What concerns me is that we all know we’re broke. I get the focus on “the economy”. Not saying it’s unimportant or that I disagree (no focus on the Federal Reserve is a tip-off, though. Lol.) Anyway, I think not focusing a little more on justice, and the judicial system, is kind of telling. Bringing the system down and restoring constitutionality is more than just “our economy”. What good is our economy if bad guys aren’t punished? Am I missing something?
Put another way, I’m having difficulty accepting how America can or will be made great again by solely focusing on economics? Where are the justifiable and necessary arrests? Crimes have been committed. We all know it. Why are high-crimes seemingly being dismissed? Can a focus on justice and economics not be done simultaneously? If not, why not?
To put an even finer point on it, I’m old enough and smart enough to question if a lot of what we’re witnessing isn’t really for personal gain. Otherwise, why are we not seeing justice administered for high-crimes? I reserve the right to future judgement, but, as it stands, I remain suspect.
And babies…don’t forget the babies….
