The Game Plan
Sundance @TheLastRefuge2
“Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more.
Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity.
Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit.
A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Unseen1 @unseen1_unseen
Here is the game plan that the forces against Trump will be using for the foreseeable future.
They will attempt to get you to make the perfect the enemy of the good.
Be it the freedom clowns and spending, the immigration hawks with H1B visas, the peace doves with timing, the cultural warriors with total bans of DEI/CRT, the neocons with war fighting, or the swamp dwellers with draining the swamp.
All of them will attempt to get you to believe on whatever issue is the issue of the day that it doesn’t go far enough or do enough. They will try to make you think that some sub issue of that issue is more important and should be handled first, that since the issue hasn’t been handled yet it won’t be, that we can’t do more than one thing, that so and so is a plant to stop the draining of the swamp, or that because it wasn’t 100% Trump lied. On every single issue, one or more groups will attempt this strategy.
You can’t allow them that power over you. If Trump secures the border and deports 2 million, don’t allow them to reduce that good by them saying well he didn’t deport 2.5 million, so he failed or lied.
You can’t allow them to use the perfect to void out the good in the coming months.
They will try. They already have with the CR and the H1b visa debates. It works, that is why they use it. You have to keep it in the front of your head on everything about to occur that half a loaf or hopefully in most cases 7/8ths a loaf is better than no loaf.
Do not allow them to gaslight you into thinking the good is the enemy of the perfect.
In the real world, most things are never perfect, but if we try real hard, we can get plenty of good accomplished in the coming 4 years.
The purpose and goals of President Trump are plainly visible by his actions and consistent: He is for the benefit first of the common PEOPLE of this country, then of the PEOPLE in the rest of the world. It is validating, even to our battered conservative skepticism.
The methods of his leadership are amazing. I still don’t get HOW he does it, or HOW he is able to get so much momentum going, but every day the momentum is growing. Everyone and every organization has their eyes opened every day — just by watching him. Even those who hate him, are biased against him, and want to see him gone — cannot ignore him. He lives rent free in their head, and they come around to seeing the universal principles by which he is operating. He hammers actions based on truth from one direction, then another, and they cannot mount an organized opposition against him.
President Trump is transparent in his words and actions. He is consistent in what he says, what he does, and what he asks/demands of others. His promises are bold and he keeps them like no other president has. He is making massive, nearly overnight changes, not only in our country, but in the world. It is amazing that he is able to accomplish so much when there are so many snakes in the grass. This term, he is weeding them out faster. No U.S. president has ever faced so much organized resistance and treason than President Trump
He has chosen to use his intellect and every skill he has to do what is right. He has tremendous faith that he can make a difference in this world. He has a confidence and courage such that he doesn’t care what others think, yet a humility to know he has to do it with the help of like minded people. Those people are the “common” people, and he ridicules those who think they are not common.
He believes people are basically good. He believes that God is real. He believes that healthy people are happy people, and they need to be able to create wealth freely for their labor, and have the freedom to spend their money on what is good for them.
He believes the United States, with its Constitutional Republic, is the best environment in the world to enable and give opportunity for people to be happy and prosperous.
He believes that we can be a light for the world, but we must demand that the rest of the world respect us and our right to life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of happiness.
He believes the enemy of our country are the stupid, greedy American people who have been selfishly taking advantage of this country; who betrayed the trust and obedience of its people; and who diverted the people’s wealth for their own selfish gain, at the expense of the principles of this country. He’s not going to allow that anymore.
He has cultivated and focused the family of MAGA. Identifying those people whose goodness, industriousness, trust, and obedience have been taken advantage of and abused. He has opened our eyes to this abuse, and the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the healthy distrust of government and men with too much power held by our founders. He has recultivated the desire to reclaim our freedoms and rights, and is empowering us with a hope and pathway to reclaim our spiritual and economic freedom.
He wants the US to be a light of hope on the hill for all people. He will negotiate win/win agreements with those nations and countries who respect us; who respect the principles and intent of our Constitution. If you do not respect us, however, we are not going to let you take advantage of our goodness, or share in our wealth at our expense. If you as a nation are treating your people badly, you are going to be treated less favorably by us, until you show that you value your people as much as we value ours.
He is convincing those who are very wealthy (most of whom truly earned their money), that the best economic soil in which to build wealth is in a constitutional republic, which supports the ability of the common man to earn wealth in proportion to his efforts. The economic engine of the United States is the human spirit freed to enjoy the fruits of honest labor, and that engine has more natural and raw horsepower than any other governed economy.
The Trump Train seems to be remarkably aligned with universal principles of Truth, which reflect the will and design of our Creator, and are the best standard by which we should live. These same principles were what our country’s founders used to declare independence, and framed into the Constitution of this nation.
Our founders believed that a nation should preserve the right and freedom of an individual to seek, understand, and live by God’s principles. They believed that free individuals working together in humility would make a stronger nation than a government which dictates its will on the people. President Trump professes and seeks to lead and restore this nation back to these same principles.
These principles resonate deeply within all human beings, down to our DNA in every cell, in our spirits, and produce fruit that “miraculously” multiplies. Because we follow universal principles, we see the snowballing acceleration of momentum on day 356 of the 2nd term of this very stable genius in the history of the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2025.

BREAKING NEWS: Treasury Secretary Bessent announcing tonight from Minnesota:
Starting tomorrow, if you’re on public assistance, you can’t wire money out of the country. Treasury is derailing the gravy train to Somalia.
https://nitter.poast.org/DavidAsmanfox/status/2009421583312396367#m
@Charlotte99, call me cynical, but I have an aching suspicion this announcement was made to add Money Laundering to the list of charges as the Rats panic!
if you’re on assistance, you ‘shouldn’t’ be able to wire money out of the country. Assistance is helping, not enriching.
Sundance’s take
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2026/01/09/secretary-bessent-announces-regional-action-to-block-remittances-from-any-entity-receiving-public-assistance/
They don’t ask if you’re on public assistance when you wire money, Im not even sure they ask for ID under a certain amount. Certainly the people making money off the transfer don’t even care. Exactly how will they even enforce it? Bessent needs to explain the details on how they will even know. Call me jaded but they should tax remittances 100% unless you can prove the money is for legitimate purposes. Less transfers will be made, giving time for workers to investigate. Make it mandatory!
SHOCK REVELATION Trump orders Secret Service probe into MTG fearing stunning betrayal after security breach. Code Pink protestors were tipped off by the former Congresswoman and managed to get within feet of Trump at a DC restaurant. [Developing]
✓iSN™ [Exclusive] ‘SHE COULD HAVE GOTTEN TRUMP KILLED WITH THAT STUNT’ Harsh words from a security analyst after it emerged MTG passed along confidential information to Code Pink so the group could ambush Trump at a DC restaurant. ‘Dangerous breach.’
https://nitter.poast.org/isource_news/status/2009671526417858616#m
Lock her up!!!
MTG probably didn’t. But she has a habit of using her speaker phone. Maybe one of her staffers overheard and told Code Pink. They should question with a lie detector boyh MTG and her staff.
@Troublemaker10, good point as this sounds like Hanlon’s Razor: Never Attribute to Malice That Which is Adequately Explained by Stupidity!
Yes!
Intelligence is not always connected to wisdom.
MTG appears to have neither.
and what will happen to her? Stern words and a new contract.
And are they going to stop feeding her details on Trump’s movements?
Ummm, isn’t she publicly betraying Trump and parading around with Code Pink and others?
Why on earth would anyone give her Trump’s location? Present or future?
So she abused it. As should have been expected.
What’s with MTG ?
She has always struck me as narcissistic but now she seems unstable.
She’s an attention seeker. She didn’t get exactly what she wanted “right now” so she threw a tantrum, flipped her script and got immediate gratification from the opposite side. Reminds me a toddlers behavior! Spoiled rotten!
If you watched the video of the meeting between President Trump and the energy company people as I did and then read some of the fake news stories about the meeting, you understand why President Trump refers to the main stream media as “fake news”. The message I comprehended from the meeting was positive and general agreement, i.e., all were chomping at the bit to get started recovering oil from Venezuela. However, reading the MST and you think the Presidents plan was a pipe dream. Fake news is scarey.
I cannot imagine a better ‘weapon’ to send against Somalia than 100,000+ de-naturalized Somalia-“Americans” dropped off on ‘The Beach’ at Mogadishu.
It could turn into a dangerous time for minority status Somalis if the newly-enriched and empowered deported criminals coalesce in their homeland and seek a scapegoat.
Perfect solution! Seize everything they have first, so they go home penniless!
On National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, the Trump Administration proudly honors the brave patriots of ICE and all law enforcement who put their lives on the line to protect America. In stark contrast, unhinged Radical Left Democrats have escalated their torrent of vicious, inflammatory attacks on these very heroes — branding them as Nazis, terrorists, and Gestapo thugs while inciting their delusional supporters to unleash violence.
As ICE valiantly defends our sovereignty and communities, here are 57 times Democrats have recklessly, deliberately stoked hatred and division against them:

DOGE BREAKING: DOGE has updated its website, estimated savings are now $215 billion.
https://nitter.poast.org/cb_doge/status/2009300111923556677#m
DOGE’s primary purpose seems to have been to gain electronic access to the DS fraud network and track it, whilst offering support to the allied agencies carrying out their own investigations. Its public mission of targeting waste was simply a PR reformulation of the original expected outcomes of its deployment. This explains the DS’s over-reaction, as it realised that Team Trump had by passed its LawFare Maginot line, (much touted before the election), and were poised to race into the depths of its defences.
The end result Minnesota, with the once all-powerful, ‘screw you six ways to Sunday’ shadow state resorting to getting its captured state officials to threaten violence and death. Worse, when the inevitable death did occur the, by the numbers, narrative started to collapse immediately, starting with her mother’s statement that her daughter had nothing to do with the protests, to the shot before just a ‘fridge-door graze, with both being contradicted by factual evidence.
HOLY CRAP.
Nick Shirley and David just confirmed that 1 Somali collects mail-in ballots for entire COMPLEXES — up to 9 BALLOTS per apartment home
— and send them in for Democrats
The voter fraud is MASSIVE
“They all vote together and there’s ballot harvesting” “You’re talking probably 100,000 or more people, and they’re all living rent free.
They’re driving a vehicle that you paid for.” “They’re eating food that you paid for. Everything they do is something that you paid for!”
Absolutely infuriating. Minnesota is like a 3rd world nation.
https://nitter.poast.org/EricLDaugh/status/2008520266201108862#m
It is “Infuriating “ !!!
Our elections are corrupted and have been for many years, but the corruption expanded exponentially in the 2020 election. Since the left got away with that, they continue to find ways to further corrupt our whole election processes.
This is so obvious yet Congress sits on their hands doing nothing about it. Most Establishment UniParty RINOS do not acknowledge that the 2020 election was loaded with corruption and stolen from President Trump. That’s why J6 happened in the first place-Protesters wanted investigations and Establishment UniParty RINOS called them insurrectionist.
Then there is Rand Paul, the “Holier Than Thou Constitutionalist” complaining about President Trumps handling of Maduro. He’s glad he is gone, but Trump should have gone thru Congress. He’s a Constitutionalist ya know.
Our Do Nothing Congress is exactly why we have so many problems- corrupt elections, debt, Rule Of Law, corrupt welfare spending…….But Rand Paul and the other Establishment UniParty RINOS don’t seem to care all that much.
It is Infuriating!!!
JMO
No, Minnesota is not like a 3rd world nation.
They are living large at your expense.
Minnesotans aren’t living large at anyone’s expense.
Most heritage Minnesotans aren’t living “large” at all.
Illegal aliens and depraved thieves are living large by theft and graft.
Don’t worry Bondi will start arresting the major players soon…..
Just load ’em on a plane and get ’em gone!
It would be a good thing if anyone had a connection to get Trump and/or Vance’s attention directed to Bondi’s arrest accomplishments. Both men continue to praise Bondi so she must think she’s doing a great job.

Hundreds of masked anti-ICE protesters besiege Minneapolis hotel as whistles and horns drown out streets after ICE shooting
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15451165/minneapolis-ice-protests-hotel-horns-hundreds-whistles-video.html
I used to work across the street from the hotel that is now being destroyed, when it was a dilapidated train depot.
I worked at the Old Federal Building, which now is unfortunately called the Paul D. Wellstone Federal Building (gag, another sickening democrap), and looked out across the street at the unique building that would never be torn down due to its historic significance. A few years after I no longer worked in downtown Minneapolis I went by and marvelled at the beautiful building that had been built around the old depot.
These miscreants have absolutely no respect for human life, so what does it matter if an old building or a neighborhood are burned to the ground?
Yep. Looks like Minneapolis is on it’s way to being destroyed again. Downtown area has been a ghost town for a few years now from what I’ve been hearing. I personally haven’t been there in years. I moved away from Chaska in 2003 and never looked back. It’s now Somali land.
My father and I brought my brother to that Train Depot when he was drafted for Vietnam war. Milwaukee Railroad Depot.
Amazing how next door St. Paul doesn’t have those trouble except in border areas where it spills over. And St. Paul is only slightly less liberal than Minneapolis. It’s pretty obvious the two cities governments have very different responses to protesters and rioters.
Looks like the Milwaukee Road depot is now called , The Depot with Marriott Hotel occupying a large portion of it. I certainly hope the riots don’t damage what’s left of that historical building.
https://jnsforum.com/community/topic/21252-old-milwaukee-road-minneapolis-station/
The first photo at the link shows the old building on the very right, with what remained of the track cover behind it to the right. The building to the left wasn’t there when I worked across the street; at that time it was a somewhat cheap unpaved parking lot. Bums lived under the track cover, and sometimes we would find them sleeping between the cars.
There is another very small, original building, that cannot be seen on the corner to the far left. It is now used as a Dunn Brothers coffee shop.
Here is the Old Federal Building. My “office” (aka the “computer room”) window is the odd small window to the very right on the second floor.

Wow, it is amazing what they did with the old track cover!
No one seems to want to destroy the people who are doing the damage rioting.
It’s funny in a sad kind of way.
The Old Federal Building, which is a beautiful, historic building itself, was bombed by protesters in 1970.
It had multiple bomb scares, with employees having to take an underground tunnel across the street for safety many times.
I believe because the building was “important” protesters abused it, and I will never forget when one group of sickos brought red paint — symbolizing blood — and threw it all over those amazing front steps and onto the building.
It took quite a while, but the sun bleached most of the color away.
Minneapolis has a very long history of destructive people doing all kinds of damage.
Minneapolis police in retreat as the mob overcomes them. Tim Walz’s National Guard are nowhere to be seen as they sit on standby.

Someone should open A Child Care Center.
“Even CNN had to admit that the brave ICE agent was hit by the domestic terrorists car first, and then he opened fire.”…
What made it worse was that Cooper did not say the vehicle hit the agent. He couched it in terms of “when the officer made contact with the vehicle.”
That’s right – the agent assaulted the Honda Pilot.
F*** Anderson Cooper and the horse he rode in on.
Anderson Cooper is deep state, CIA, gay, what did you expect?
Turn the TV off, you can do it.
It does NOT matter whether or not the crazy driver had hit the officer before he fired his weapon. One doesn’t wait until they are assaulted and/or dead to defend ones self…
Anderson remains skeptical of the shots being fired after the vehicle makes contact with the agent. The guest disagrees. I’m unable to tell. It’s chaotic from my perspective but doesn’t alter my assessment that under the totality of circumstances, the agent acted in self-defense.
Those intent on convicting the agent and defending the lawlessness would do so even if there was no ambiguity in any of the videos. To bolster their claim, they refer to retired LE claiming the agent had broken protocol.
The underlying premise of everyone claiming Good is an innocent victim of a felony act by an ICE agent is that using deadly force is only legal and justified when they (leftists) do it. All of their claims are rooted there.
Agree, they don’t care about her.
They are using her death to create more chaos and strengthen their communist base.

“Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson says she will not investigate any immigrant daycare fraud”….
Not one more dime!
Investigate her for fraud.
She just finished admitting that she is not upholding the law and is thus complicit in any and all fraud that is taking place…
Trump’s superpower is getting America’s enemies to rip off their masks and show us what hides underneath.
It’s an unstoppable downward spiral now. In order to maintain power, they have to out themselves. As they out themselves they empower Trump’s actions against them.
I am reminded of Brian De Palma’s mystery movie Sisters from the 1970’s, where a witness is hypnotized into denying what she knows by repeating a mantra:
“There is no body because there was no murder.”
Here we have from the Communist Mayor: “There is no investigation because there is no fraud.”
Except…nobody has hypnotized her!
They’re “taking very seriously” that “random people are showing up to daycares”: Investigative reporters are on notice.
The only ones on notice are the corrupt city government officials enabling and aiding the fraud and the fraudsters themselves.
There isn’t squat the city can do about investigative reporters. This remains America – even in deep blue cities.
As a fallback safety net – if the city tries to arrest anyone, their one phone call should be to the WH to declare they are a witness to federal felonies and request federal protective custody.

@nettermike
This account from a Venezuelan security guard loyal to Nicolás Maduro is absolutely chilling—and it explains a lot about why the tone across Latin America suddenly changed.
Cont…
Or Nitter link:
https://nitter.net/nettermike/status/2009843044028428714#m
This “account” is fishy in many ways.
For one, if the guy was a “security guard loyal to Nicolás Maduro”, he would be Cuban, because it’s well known now that Cuban intelligence agents were protecting Maduro. Being Cuban, there’s no way he would blab, because he knows full well that the Cuban regime would kill or imprison him.
Weren’t those dearly departed Cubans there because Maduro had NO loyal security?
But for some reason I just love the phrase Netter on Nitter. Netter on Twitter and Netter on X just don’t have the same appeal.
The account seemed solid enough to me, but you are correct that the info has not been verified by any main stream sources…so could be propaganda.
The SCIF passed it along though (did not seem to question soyrce nor feasability)….

@TheSCIF
Former Nicolás Maduro security guard delivers a firsthand account of the advance technology used in the U.S. raid in Venezuela. State-of-the-art drones, massive firepower, but the Direct Energy Weapons were the most terrifying.
20 elite American soldiers, armed with cutting-edge technology, dismantled defenses and neutralized hundreds without a single casualty on their side. This isn’t just a story of victory—it’s a masterclass in modern warfare supremacy.
The Americans arrived undetected, Advanced electronic warfare systems completely disabled Venezuelan radars and other equipment.
Drones struck with lightning speed, obliterating bases and outpacing any counter-response. The guard notes Venezuela had “no technology to fight against drones,” highlighting the asymmetric edge of U.S. unmanned aerial systems.
Most interesting, was the mention of Direct Energy Weapons, causing immediate incapacitation, with victims bleeding from ears, nose, and mouth.
This matches the Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD) or emerging directed-energy systems like the Active Denial System (ADS). and other electromagnetic and acoustic weaponry. If you follow me, this is nothing new and a taste of what we really have and are capable of.

For a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.”—John F.

So he admitted on camera that he and his department was aware they were illegal aliens and that they were part of a transnational terrorist organization and they did absolutely NOTHING about it…

why are they allowing themselves to be treated as such? Did not President Trump say if you hit or get in the face of one of them, you will be arrested and subjected to return harm?
‘return harm’? Too gentle of a statement. Those perps interpret that as weakness.
I much prefer the verbiage of the Sheriff of Brevard County….something along the lines of ‘graveyard dead’…and notifying your people ‘where to collect your remains’….and “This has got to stop”.
Shocking study linking covid jabs and cancer ‘censored’ by mysterious cyberattack

COVID vaccination and post-infection cancer signals: Evaluating patterns and potential biological mechanisms
https://www.oncotarget.com/article/28824/text/
What about “shedding?”
Paper focusses on other papers. Makes no conclusions. Does recommend further research. At least Science is now admitting there is a possibility.
As to shedding, that was not considered. Most reviewed papers were tied to covid illness or to vaccine injection. Though they did complain of one that wasn’t clearly specified.
They also complained that most papers weren’t properly keyworded, so typical searches would miss them.
Unfortunately, shedding would dilute the data. I.E. there would be many sufferers who get the cancer but can be proven not to be vaxxed. I suppose one could search for the vaxxed spike in unvaxxed people with those cancers.
That was something else they spoke about. The spikes produced by the unnatural vaccine are more persistent than the naturally caused spikes.
But this paper doesn’t claim to prove anything.
And we are in an exploratory phase where many different possible effects are possibly linked. Not clean and clear like ‘breathing in asbestos is clearly linked to lung cancer’. Nor statistically correlated like the linear relation between high doses of radiation and cancer.
I’ve shared the data for years here that shows the truth of cancer and the vaccine…

Former Special Counsel Jack Smith Confirms his Utter Contempt for the First Amendment Before Congress
https://jonathanturley.org/2026/01/10/former-special-counsel-jack-smith-confirms-his-utter-contempt-for-the-first-amendment-in-congressional-testimony/
In this appearance before Congress, Smith’s contempt for the First Amendment was on full display. During his testimony, he was asked by Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) whether Trump was entitled to First Amendment protections for his speech.
Smith replied: “Absolutely not. If they are made to target a lawful government function and they are made with knowing falsity, no, they are not. That was my point about fraud not being protected by the First Amendment.”
The comment is entirely and shockingly wrong. Smith shows a complete lack of understanding of the First Amendment and Supreme Court precedent.
First, the Supreme Court has held that knowingly false statements are protected under the First Amendment. The Supreme Court struck down the Stolen Valor Act. In United States v. Alvarez, the Court held 6-3 that it is unconstitutional to criminalize lies — in that case involving “stolen valor” claims. Likewise, spewing hate-filled lies is protected. In Snyder v. Phelps, also in 2011, the Court said the hateful protests of Westboro Baptist Church were protected.
Second, calling such claims “fraud” does not convert protected speech into criminal speech. Trump was speaking at a rally about his belief that the election was stolen and should not be certified. Many citizens supported that view. It was clearly protected political speech.
I think it more likely than not that it was not MTG that tipped off Code Pink. Not directly.
However, MTG giving such conflicting statements doesn’t say much for her credibility:
Jan 9th tweet:
“I do not have Medea Benjamin’s phone number and do not have any contact with her. She used to stop by my office as she stops by every office on Capitol hill.” -MTG-
Source (tweet above):
Dec 11 tweet:
“I have enjoyed a friendship with Medea for a few years now even though politics ssys that’s not allowed.” -MTG-
Source:
https://x.com/The_War_Economy/status/2009669812461678824
Not directly?
Whether it’s true or not (and I bet it is), MTG deserves EVERYTHING she gets simply for allowing herself to be photographed with the deranged, CCP funded, America-hating, anarchist retards of CodePink. For me, that pic took her out of the dingbat category and put her right into flaming asshole territory (sorry for the vulgarity, but my coffee ain’t kicked in yet).
The more the woman talks the deeper the hole she digs.
If you have been following my journey with my daughter, Savannah, outlined within our Prayer Thread – I am drawing light to something “else” that is appearing underway. Please humor me while I share this here.
There were 300 people at the homeless shelter in West Lafayette, IN. A mix of about 50/50 domestic Americans and possible non-resident aliens. A mix of both men and women and a subset of developmental and emotional disabilities. The disabled “kids” my daughter was with – had parents who either died, or were incarcerated. All were respectful, sweet humans, who came up to me to assure me that they would “help protect my daughter”. I wanted to bring all of them home with me, my car could only carry 3 of them. I had to leave two males behind, but they were the only ones with reserved beds for that night at the shelter.
Please see and hear our story below about VOTER REGISTRATION and what’s happening currently in Central Indiana.
All,
I just realized something. The police department in Frankfort gave these kids only two choices for shelter assistance – West Lafayette or Kokomo, Indiana. Pretty far away from services that are also available regionally within their home county of Boone County.
Then – almost 30 days ago – Savannah was issued a letter by Boone County Voter’s Registration that they were going to INVALIDATE her ability to vote because they believed she no longer resided at my address in Whitestown, Indiana.
Interesting to me – that we are so QUICK to register ILLEGALS, yet so QUICK to invalidate a LIVE PERSON’S ability to vote. Regardless of where Savannah is choosing to live – she is interested and involved in informed voting. She wants her right to vote in the local and federal elections. FORTUNATELY, we caught the deadline to return the form by 5 days – but is this – YET ANOTHER – election interference initiative to encumber people from being able to vote? Remove them from their county of domicile then invalidate them?
I hate that my mind would even go to this – but it is obvious to me that evildoers will stop at nothing, and spare no expense, to prevent We The People’s voices from being heard.
If our lessons here – help anyone – then it is worth sharing.
ALSO – contacting our cell phone service providers Tello – which uses TMobile lines – they will NOT provide account owners the IP addresses of their phones. Had Margaret not found Savannah via SnapChat with her location access turned “on” – we would never have found my daughter.
To God be The Glory, The Honor, and The Power – forevermore. EVIL DOES NOT WIN. NEVER.
Thanks much for sharing. There is so much junk mail that most of us often dismiss, it would be quite easy to miss such a notice. I have no doubt that your hunches are correct in that it is likely a voter suppression scheme.
Prayers lifted up and hugs sent JWoo.
Kharg Island. Yes, halfway around the world. It is Iran’s oil terminal and China’s gas station. Four million barrels of oil a day are loaded onto ships there, and the people have shut the valves. Oil production is being halted in the Revolution. Have the people of Iran ironically saved Taiwan?
Xi Jinping of China is watching the Revolution in Iran. He will have to make plans to buy oil elsewhere, so the threat he represents against Taiwan has just diminished greatly. He has other worries.
The Communist Party in China is a minority among the people, one in 15. It represents the ruling dynasty, since Mao. Students of Chinese history will recall that dynasties come and go. On average every two to three hundred years, the Chinese people rise up and slaughter every last living member of the ruling dynasty. They remember grudges for generations, and when they settle the score, they use knives.
The Chinese Communist Party, under Chairman Mao, killed tens of millions of Chinese in the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution. The people have not forgotten. The descendants of the dead will one day settle the score. So Xi, watching the people of Iran rise up in the millions to eject the mullahs, knows it can happen in China. It can happen to him. He will not be in such a hurry to seize Taiwan. And that is copacetic for us.
interesting read. Hope you’re right.
At a bare minimum, it weakens China and reduces their access to oil. That in and of itself is a plus.
Now if only the Canadian port through which massive amounts of American coal pour through were shutdown…

Got a question. What if those supporting the ICE agents, et., would go to Minnesota as observers and were physically and verbally attacked by rioters? Would the law not be required to arrest them and hold until charges were made? People with cell phones at hand recording. No violence from them.
There is no true law authority Minneapolis. It’s not about law but political expediency and outcome. The observers would be arrested as interfering with the protesters rights or some other made up crime.
of course you are right. My son told me a man wanted to protest the burning of our flag so he got a Pelasgian flag to burn but the police told him if he burned it, he would be arrested for a hate crime. Go figure. You can hate America but Americans can’t hate you back. Justice is no lady.
IMO it’s up to the people of Minnesota – more specifically the men of Minnesota, or what’s left of them – to grow a pair and take care of business in their state…mostly peacefully of course.
The Democrats Last Rodeo
“. . .the Minnesota protests look less like a local eruption and more like the latest deployment of an international revolutionary machine.” —Insurrection Barbie on “X”
https://www.kunstler.com/p/the-democrats-last-rodeo
Chrump, Chrump Chrump. . . . He’s come to occupy the Left’s minds like an infestation of weevils chawing away the ligaments of civilized society. But, of course, the whole wicked, Cluster-B, anomie-driven, insurrectionist extravaganza is a made-for-video production bought and paid for by a tiny coterie of super-wealthy megalomaniacs untouched by consequence — George and Alex Soros (The Open Society Foundations), Shanghai-based American Neville Roy Singham (Codepink and more), Reid Hoffman (funder of Trump prosecutions and more), Lauren Powell Jobs (The Atlantic and the Emerson Collective), Hansjorg Wyss (Berger Action Fund), Bill Gates (of course). . . .
The Democratic Party apparently realizes that the latest round of scandals and crimes might be its last rodeo. After a day of hearings this week, featuring several Minnesota politicos who testified about sketchy goings-on in the state, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FLA) launched criminal referrals against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and MN Attorney General Keith Ellison. That’s apart from whatever the DOJ has already been working on, and it is probably the beginning of a nation-wide web of prosecutions moving toward the midterm election that will drag in many other big dawgs of the party, including 2028 front-runner Gavin Newsom. The suicide of the Democratic Party has gone live, Donald Trump assisting.
Thank you! Great comment, Jake! (But could you please correctly call the Party ‘Democrat’ instead of Democratic which it is not). Thanking you in advance 🙂

It’s now out of control, they are actually attacking hotels they “think” ICE officers are staying at.
I hope they keep their eyes on this guy. I’d take him seriously. Especially because there have already been assassination attempts on ICE agents.
It’s very unlikely that “this guy” will do anything himself – his role is that of an Ray Epps…foment unrest and instigate others to do things.
President needs to go after the funding source…Soros…
When the money dries up so will the protests…TDS or not…
Bondi & Patel promised to do exactly this, in a televised Cabinet meeting, SIX MONTHS ago.
The reason we are still seeing the Riot and Insurrection Complex destroying cities and causing mayhem is because of these two abject failures.
Our FBI and DOJ are completely AWOL, led by two clowns.

It’s astonishing to me that nobody has commented on the fact that it’s obviously planned and implemented strategy to have all of these harassers be female. Why? Because a bunch of young soy boy punks hitting officers and getting arrested is not going to elicit anybody’s sympathy, especially since they’re white. But to see a bunch of women thrown to the ground and handcuffed is designed to induce outrage and sympathy. Doesn’t matter that these people are breaking the law and endangering law enforcement etc etc. It’s all about optics.
This ^^^^^
This isn’t new – nor are the estrogen wars they are part of new. Hence why it usually isn’t commented on – it’s understood. That said, an occasional reminder is never a bad thing 🙂
There is also the fact that nothing is quite as irritating as a high pitched female banshee screech – also intentional.
Very much related is an article that was shared here late last year. In case you didn’t see it, highly suggested reading:

they should have been dis -banded years ago……..partly FBI controlled in many cases……

but we are far from that……..
this mess is gonna get far worse ….be fore it gets better………..stay safe Treepers
Yep, I first noted their ability to amass, agitate and activate mobs of violent morons using social media during the 0bama years with the Occupy Wall St. idiots which more or less morphed into Antifa USA, then we had BLM etc.
Bill Barr did nothing about it, I don’t see Bondi doing much and we’re at the point where we’re going to have to publicly beat the crap out of them with overwhelming force to regain control . . . . which is exactly what they want to sustain their narrative.
A reminder…
https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/09/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-designates-antifa-as-a-domestic-terrorist-organization/
Remember also that PDJT wrote a memo urging DOJ (not that the dumb blond will do anything) to investigate and charge Soros and others for RICO charges related to their funding of antifa and domestic violence.
My son and I were just published by American Thinker, “Monthly Trade Deficit Falls to Lowest Level in Years.” We point out that Trump’s reduction in the trade deficits are greatly helping the U.S. economy and are reducing U.S. borrowing (for consumption), increasing our huge debt to foreigners. We worry, however, that the Supreme Court and/or Congress may put an end to Trump’s progress.
Don’t we all?
The Supreme Court and Congress both participated in ousting Trump in 2020.
Good job!

“To date, DC police have refused to release bodycam footage from J6.”
“Court Hearing Held for DC Police Bodycam Footage from January 6, 2021
[Judicial Watch was] in court yesterday for a hearing before D.C. Superior Court Judge Carl E. Ross in a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the District of Columbia for local police bodycam footage from January 6, 2021.
We filed the June 2024 FOIA lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia after the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) denied our August 2021 request (Judicial Watch v. District of Columbia). We are seeking all footage captured by the body-worn cameras of police department officers who responded to the Capitol on January 6.
The Metropolitan Police Department continues to withhold the January 6 footage because it claims that the faces and voices of every individual who is not law enforcement personnel in the videos for personal privacy reasons. Because of this, the police department seeks to charge us more than $1.5 million so that the police department can redact those faces and voices in the videos, which supposedly contain over one thousand hours of footage.”
