Why is Starlink satellite-based systems still providing internet and telecommunications for South-east Asia’s scam hub – with ‘pig butchering’ ongoing?

What’s going on with Josh Hawley ?
Why is he protecting Nancy Pelosi? and what did he help the democrats pass?
Original Post
Why would one “Republican,” Senator Josh Hawley from the Great State of Missouri, join with all of the Democrats to block a Review, sponsored by Senator Rick Scott, and with the support of almost all other Republicans, of Nancy Pelosi’s Stock Trading over the last 25 years. The information was inappropriately released just minutes before the Vote — Very much like SABOTAGE! The Democrats, because of our tremendous ACHIEVEMENTS and SUCCESS, have been trying to “Target” me for a long period of time, and they’re using Josh Hawley, who I got elected TWICE, as a pawn to help them. I wonder why Hawley would pass a Bill that Nancy Pelosi is in absolute love with — He is playing right into the dirty hands of the Democrats. It’s a great Bill for her, and her “husband,” but so bad for our Country! I don’t think real Republicans want to see their President, who has had unprecedented success, TARGETED, because of the “whims” of a second-tier Senator named Josh Hawley!
It is whack -a-mole.
The Republican wing of the Uniparty is complicit.
We have mentioned this numerous times.
Most of the RINOs do not obstruct every time.
One-or up to several — (whatever # is necessary to obstruct) pops up to vote nay.
Next time around a different RINO (or more) takes their turn to vote against the president.
These political pukes are vile. We need to get more MAGA candidates in, and primary these bastards .
Nice to know our politicians hate us.
It must be something attached to the bill allowing them another avenue to “target” President Trump. I can’t figure it out yet (maybe that’s where SD is). It came out of committee 8 to 7 with Hawley joining all the democrats – get this, the bill’s to prohibit congressional members from investing in stocks – it’s called the “Pelosi Act,” and all the democrats voted for it . . . ha ha ha.
Are they going through contortions to screw President Trump or what!
Maybe a firing squad is the best answer to our problems.
It would be easier to just ID the 15-20% who actually side with the President.
The whole board needs to be rigged for explosion.
Lorrie Girten,
Good points.
“Most of the RINOs do not obstruct every time.”
JMO.
The senate, for over a hundred years, has had a subset of senators acting as treasonous “protectors” of the globalist’s anti-Constitutional Republic objectives. Some current senate incumbents are globalists, bought and paid for by the “one-world-order business interests.”
So, what determines when an obstruction will take place in the senate?
There are two basic characteristics to look for:
(one) protect a hard core tenet of globalism
(two) protect any member of the bipartisan “senate subset of globalists”
So, who determines when a globalist senator has to take his turn obstructing a process to protect “globalism”?
That would be the “senate globalist whip” …… bought and paid for by the “one-world-order business interests.”
The whip can be a member of any party. His identity will only be known by the members of the “senate subset of globalists”.
_________________________
President Trump and his MAGA / America First movement members are working to replace all, 100%, of the “senate subset of globalists” in the upcoming elections …. some will be in the republican primaries and some will be in the general elections.
President Trump will broadcast to all MAGA / America Firsters whenever he has uncovered a globalist senator who needs to have a MAGA primary opponent, aka Josh Hawley.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Yep! The Senator from North Carolina, Thom Tillis, had to leave politics altogether to quasi make his vote seem authentic.

To think that this Old Nitwit has exercised political power over our country is an embarrassment.

He supports a bill to stop trading in the future but doesn’t want any investigation of trading in the past. I wonder…?
he attends meetings on Jekyll Island… with others…
This has a familiar vibe….kinda like when Trump went off on MAGA after the Patel/Bongino nut-up over Epstein…ironically, Nancy was the lone voice warning Dems that going cra-cra over Epstein was a “distraction”😂🤣
Sure, now Trump’s a raving lunatic,
Well, that raving lunatic just closed another trade deal with South Korea, 15% tariffs for South Korea – 0% for the United States.
The tariff case in the Court of Federal Appeals is tomorrow morning at 10am. The appeal is from the decision by the Court of International Trade which it’s three judge panel ruled unanimously that President Trump’s tariffs were illegal. Secretary Scott Bessent told the Financial Times that the Administration was pursuing Section 122 tariff authority because it was more “DURABLE” than IEEPA which is why the tariffs are coming in at 15%. That is the rate Section 122 permits for a period of five months. Afterwards the tariffs must be approved by Congress. We’ll know more about the case tomorrow. The oral arguments are public on YouTube.
After watching the way the “Epstein” stuff was handled, mishandled, released, released piecemeal, ordered released and then stopped by Judges, et al …. it seems the who thing has the feel of preemptive strike using whatever information was on-hand and will continue dropping stuff as it becomes available.
Sometimes preemptive strikes have to be launched no matter how unprepared the strike force just to gain initiative. Then sustained with additional assets as they can be deployed.
Watching how the social media and MSN are using the fact President knew and even associated with Epstein as an anchor point to tie every photo possible involving President Trump to that association just screams something bigger was planned.
Something much bigger was planned …dumping Epstein stuff into the public realm as fast as it surfaces as well as continuing to demand release of everything was/remains the best course of action at this point. Not every operation can be some well thought out plan …. some times you gotta just push forward and keep moving.
Notice how congress critters keep “calling for stuff” but are NOT doing stuff.
Geee … congress sure has not been fast to give or consider amnesty for testimony … notice nobody in CONGRESS has even suggested that Congress should talk to DoJ about some sort of deal for testimony.
Sure has been a big scramble to get in front of judges to stop release as well … and as release becomes more feasible that scramble will get worse … complete with judge shopping.
Notice how democrats called for stuff then voted against it on the floor of congress.
It would also be helpful to resurrect the stories from 2015 that stated President Trump was highly cooperative and in fact was cited as the MOST cooperative major witness interviewed by Local Investigators and Obama’s own FBI.
I know Bondi and Patel are light weights and not necessarily the brightest … but they are not that stupid to do something so half baked. I suspect they got their hands on allot of stuff before it was fully buried, warned the President … and the preemptive strike was launched no matter how bad it looked publicly.
Listen, this was all taken care of legally, the girls that were abused got settled and paid. President Trump can’t blow up the legal system for people that don’t really understand it – if any of the girls were killed that needs to be investigated and that’s where Pam Bondi needs to be to diffuse this thing.
There are reasons Mr. Trump keeps picking people he can’t trust at AG, he’s doing it for us – it’s his ass that’s on the line. Mr. Trump knows we need to turn the Country around first before we get reform – don’t blame him for having highly acute judgement where he can always recognize the correct course of action – that’s what we hired him for!
He wants to release the Epstein files now to show that he wasn’t involved in it but now another court won’t let him do it in order to keep protecting the democrats, and to keep it a mystery so they can keep accusing him of being involved, at so many levels this is really simple stuff, but the situation is constantly changing – this is why President Trump (like any intelligent person) is always flexible.
President Trump is fighting like nobody else, only an inert neurotic complainer (or troll) could sit on the sidelines and bitch. It’s a very sticky situation, it’s a patently democratic scandal but the democrats were in possession of the files for four years – everybody knows they’ve doctored the files beyond recognition. That has to be sorted out.
This is all brazen democrat hypocrite accuser politics, but some of our friends are taking the bait; hook, line, and sinker.
bla bla bla … YOU listen CLOWN .. payoff and NDA’s covering ILLEGAL acts are ALL moot and are in fact a crime in themselves being used to cover another crime. So stuff it on the “bad girls angel”. Also, nobody knows how those girls were groomed to accept their fate NO MATTER how bad they were. Nobody knows what damage was done to those girls to the point that the fatalistically just accepted it and “took the money”
This not about legalities this is about the PUBLIC assassination of MAGA you fool.

Then there is the very real bit of rationale … for over 10 years Candidate-President Trump has be an existential to the Deep State, Puppet Masters and World Order as it exists …. yet NOT a single thing has been has been published.
For over 10 years the Democrats and World Leaders have cited President Trump as danger to our very existence … yet nothing is published.
Consider: What if MAXWELL had “the real good files” all along?? She handed over a sampling and we’re off to the races.
its a living document. living testimony. can change depending on the playing field.
and at baseline it helps Dem aligners cope with losing and being wrong.
I don’t consider if too much. . there is no end.
Sorry, I didn’t mean that you were an “inert neurotic complainer,” I just meant people that are bitching at President Trump.
OK. I’m going to bring my take on it as far as the girls go – sexual abuse damage lasts a lifetime. But, even when I was a minor I never believed that I would be rewarded for just being pretty. Even though my needs were not met I never in a million years would have fallen for that and I am not very smart or worldly but there was already something wrong in their lives for them to go for it. There was plenty of girl whisperers when I was young. I found them disgusting but remained polite and walked away. My truth. Hate on me all you want I can handle it.
Truth stands alone. It does not have a my truth, a your truth – it’s just plain truth. What you have is your opinion which may or may not be true.
That’s probably true 😁
Hope I don’t get in time out for this but…would the SS ad be better if she had been unzipping instead of the other way?
Hyena Girl rules out running for CA Governor, “My leadership will not be in elected office.”
Someone finally told her she can’t get elected. I assume she’s waiting to be appointed to some comfortable sinecure underwritten by some lefty corporation.
I listened to a podcast discussing why she can’t seem to get any support and it hit me: Kamala was no more Vice President than the Corpse was President, she was as much an empty chair with a title as he was.

Senators Ted Cruz (TX) and Rick Scott (FL) and House member Warren Davidson (OH) and introduced a bill in their respective chambers to eliminate the Federal Reserve from paying interest payments to banks!
Link to the article and within it is a link to the bill itself:
https://www.cruz.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/sens-cruz-scott-lead-bill-to-stop-federal-reserve-from-paying-interest-on-bank-reserves
As the article makes note of, in 2024 alone, the Federal Reserve paid $186 billion in interest to banks alone.
No wonder Powell doesn’t want to reduce interest rates, he and the federal reserve and their banking buddies are making off like bandits while people in the middle class are having trouble to purchase a home due to the high interest rates, not to mention the credit card interest rates that banks charge.
direct link to the bill itself; 2 pages:
https://www.cruz.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/fair_act.pdf
“people in the middle class are having trouble to purchase a home due to high interest rates”
Not always true…
I just bought a house for my niece (cash) with the money I made in interest income over the last three years because of the higher rates.
If Americans would learn how to save again, interest rates work in your favor.
Good point.

Today we agreed to another historic trade deal. The Republic of Korea will provide $350 Billion for the United States to invest as President Trump directs, with 90% of the profits going to the American people. South Korea also agreed to purchase $100 Billion in LNG and other energy products from the United States over the next 3.5 years. Additionally, when the President of South Korea visits the White House in the coming weeks, President Trump and President Lee Jae Myung will announce the enormous investments South Korean companies will make in America.

We knew we despised Pompeo, this is just another reason.
But Adam Schiff! The dirtiest, slimiest, lyingest member of Congress!
Hopefully Karma – or “The Trump Curse” – is getting Schiff. Pompeo will never be President.
The real horror is who and how many are the Term 2 traitors?
My husband is passing and come open enrollment I intend to refuse Medicare or my secondary insurance (not Advantage.). I will never call 911 or the police again. The inferior product and behaviors is my reason. If I die, I die. Simply not going to pay for it anymore. I wish this were a trend. I’m walking away from an out of control incredibly corrupt system. Anyone else doing this?
Couldn’t agree with you more that it is a corrupt and out of control system.
It also seems hopeless to think Congress will do anything to improve it because every time they touch it, they make it worse.
Once easy fix would be to allow seniors to buy into some of the new concierge opportunities that are sprouting up.

Have stage one cancer in ONE lymph node on right side. they want to take all the lymph nodes in my right side out. My answer was not–Well the Lord’s answer to me was “don’t do it.”\
I’m 76 and tired of doctors who seem to have less scientific common sense then I do.
Kookooracharabioso, do you mean your husband is dying? I’m sorry if I seem like a nit-wit, or that I don’t know your circumstances. If he is, please know I will be praying for him and you.
As to your question about anyone else doing what you’re doing, I am with you 100% when it comes to walking away from the medical mafia.
Up until a couple years ago, when a Deer Tick embedded itself in my abdomen, I had NOT seen a doctor for 20+ years. And I wish I’d never gone then.
Thank you.
I left the medical world at 27 yrs old after having worked as Respiratory Therapy supervisor in a mid-size hospital. The incompetence of physicians (nurses were far better) and unnecessary deaths soured me completely. I haven’t been to a doctor of any kind in more than 45 years and doing fine. There are natural remedies it seems for almost anything (including gallstones) that I make good use of. Completely agree with you, Kookoora.
One of the smartest and most delightful women I ever knew was in respiratory therapy and yes the people still in medical care stay quiet but the ones who have left I kinda have to not speak with because they HATE the current practice of medicine and they’ll get my blood pressure up so quickly!

FTA “U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., has asked the federal Office of Special Counsel for an investigation of special counsel Jack Smith, the leftist who was assigned to orchestrate a large part of the Democrats’ lawfare against President Donald Trump. His cases went away when Trump was elected to his second term, but they involved a wild range of accusations including the J6 protests at the Capitol, election actions and more.”
I’ll wait to see if Sundance comments on this? Is it just a way to hide Jack Smith and his illegal activities for years based on an ongoing investigation nonsense!!!???

The fraudulent New York Times op-ed by Brennan and Clapper is a classic case of a straw man argument. Yes, they lie outright about the role of the Steele dossier in the Intelligence Community Assessment, and yes, they throw Comey under the bus by blaming him for including the bogus dossier. But the most revealing part is how they try to reframe the entire issue around claims no one is actually making.

Another American murdered – defending his mother from a rapist… vicious animal was let into their home… I can only imagine she needed the money-help from his lavish benefits because she’s American and doesn’t qualify – probably makes too much money at a minimum wage job

“… “On July 20, Amandor-Martinez arrived at an apartment shared with his girlfriend, Aleida Lopez, early in the morning and attempted to rape her. After she fended him off, Amandor-Martinez assaulted her by biting her left hand, right armpit, and injured her arm. Her 15-year-old son, Luis Lopez, tried to intervene and was shot by Amandor-Martinez three times and murdered. The criminal illegal alien then assaulted Lopez’s daughter with a firearm.”
…
“15-year-old Luis Lopez died trying to save his mother from this criminal illegal alien who was attempting to rape her. Gildardo Amandor-Martinez is a rapist and cold-blooded killer who should have never been in this country,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin….”
