Another truck wreck in Chicago, dumped a load of sheet metal and related products…yesterday, one radio station
reported that it is
guesstimated that one in five big rig drivers in IL, are not qualified and illegal.
Aggiegirl,
Thanks for the reporting.
JMO.
The evidence continues to quickly mount against the blue states / cities and their dangerous, treasonous, unconstitutional “sanctuary policies” that must be stopped.
As President Thomas Jefferson wrote:
“A strict observance of the written law is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to the written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the ends to the means.” (one),(two)

Thomas Jefferson knew that at some point in America’s future, treasonous traitors would take over the law-and-order and judicial functions of the DC centered federal government and some territories / states (so-called blue states/cities).
That “point” has been reached.
The treasonous, unconstitutional “sanctuary policies” of the blue states / cities must be stopped, post haste.
Be stopped by President Trump’s plans to move all “treason crimes” out of the fraudulent DC judicial system with its fraudulent jury pools.
At the appropriate time, the investigation, prosecution and sentencing of all treason cases must be moved by President Trump’s orders over to Pete’s JAG in the Department of War.
The JAG court proceedings will be at locations outside of the physical and procedural control of the infamous DC judicial system with its corrupt jurists and jury pool.
All functions would be staying within the Executive Branch under overall control and direction of President Trump, i.e., Constitutional.
The destruction of the local treasonous election systems must be mandated by the Executive Branch before the 2026 midterms.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Your welcome…back about 20 years ago, Chicago was the either third or fourth largest hub for containers…so it bears watching…
Years ago, there was an eastern European big rig driver who rolled over in my county…on top of a minivan filled with a family. They never saw it coming.
I agree with you. However, the fall mid-terms are fast approaching and action must be taken ASAP if it is going to have any affect on the races.
I am so afraid these days when I see trucks on the road.
I have noticed there are fewer big rig wrecks talked about during the road reports on Chicago radios…so maybe there is hope.
I share, deeply, your same fear.
Recently saw one do an illegal U turn right in front of me, southern part of Hampton Roads VA. Freaked me out!!
I don’t recall in years passed the many PI attorney ads I now see on TV that focus upon “big rig” truck wrecks. I submit that the correlation of more ads today with more irresponsible/illegal truck drivers also reflects causation.
Ankin Law still does, here in Chicagoland. Has an office downtown.
The clown mayor and gov Porkulus will be blaming PDJT in 3,2,1.
Clown mayor stated yesterday, while not really addressing the murder on the Loyola student, that jail is not the answer that’s just a racist way that doesn’t cure anything.
They have been trying to spin it…it took Prickster 5 days to make a comment….kind of like it took Meatball to make a comment about the raid on MAL….but even Meatball was quicker…
I despise both of them…
And the governor aspires to 1600. He needs to be watched and suspect each and every time he opens his mouth, even when putting food in it.
1600 what?….pizzas?
That’s good.
New reality show… Buffet Busters.

Thank you for sharing the news.
In September 2025, Congressman Byron Donalds introduced H.R. 5177, a ” Bill to amend title 49, United States Code, with respect to the enforcement of certain safety requirements relating to commercial motor vehicle drivers, and for other purposes.” It became known as “The WEIGH Act.”
Congressman Donalds has stated: “Under my ‘WEIGH Act,’ all weigh stations along interstate highways will be required to enforce President Trump’s Executive Order to review commercial driver licenses for irregularities and verify the English language proficiency of truckers. Safety must be the standard, not the exception, and on Capitol Hill I’m fighting to ensure that the American people are put first every step of the way. The elimination of these threats to the American people is non-negotiable.”
https://texasinsider.org/articles/donalds-leads-federal-crackdown-on-illegal-alien-truckers-to-keep-american-motorists-safe
I called the Congressman’s DC office earlier today to inquire about the status of the Bill, and I was told that it was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, from which it has not been advanced after six months.
On I-55 as one approaches DuPage county–and on the southbound side…the weigh station is not open 24/7.
If some horrendous accident happened to one of Congress or their families, it would get voted on post haste after getting pushed thru the various committees…
If Obamacare Passed via Reconciliation, Why Can’t the SAVE America Act? – PJ Media
“There’s always a double standard at the heart of Washington, and Republicans never seem to benefit from it, just Democrats. I can’t seem to understand why.”
Let me help you.
All the Democrat Treason is supported by Traitor Thune & UNIPARTY Republicans, too. That’s why they cling to the Filibuster. They’re faking. They want to wreck America, too. Or at least the people who bribe them do.
Stop kidding yourself.
But ObamaCare wasn’t passed by Reconciliation.
The CIA Elections Division gave Barry 60 votes to pass it, in order to socialize medicine, bail out the unions, get campaign donations, put in regulations for the planned Virus/Vaxx Attack and enable the vast Walz/Newsom-scale Looting of the Treasury.
And not a single Democrat was charged let alone convicted!! Just more evidence of our two tier Judicial system used by banana republics! Republicans get leg irons and handcuffs Democrats walk!!! No Democrat will ever be grand juried, charged or convicted in the corrupt leftist activist stacked with obama/biden Judges in the corrupt DC District!!!! Ever!!!
Ultimately, It was the Soros-backed MN Secretary of State that allowed all the sketchy votes for Al Franken to get counted and Arlen Specter switching parties that got the Democrats to 60.
I think they attached something about Student Loans to do it.
That was the follow up bill. In short:
House passed and sends routine spending bill to Senate in 2009.Senate decides now is time for Affordable Care act since we have filibuster proof 60. Replaces original bill.Senate Democrats defeat filibuster and pass Affordable Care Act Dec 24, 2009, sends it back to House.Sccott Brown wins special election and sworn in January 2010; Senate Democrats down to 59.House passes Affordable Care Act as is since any changes send it back to Senate.House (Pelosi) also pass the separate Health Care and Education Reform Act of 2010 and put their Affordable Care Act changes in there.
The Health Care and Education Reform Act was qualified for the reconciliation process and passes 56-43 March 2010.
Main point is that Democrats know how to move legislation and strike when the irons are hot. The Affordable Care Act (framework at least) had to be already written and ready to go ahead of the Democrats getting 60 senators.
Republicans don’t really seem to care.
almost like they knew
Same applies to the Pariot Act.
Was it even a year after 9-11 when that dropped?
Not much longer if it was. They had to have had the Patriot Act ready to go. Probably prepared as a wish list by the intelligence community.
Just over a month ( https://www.britannica.com/topic/USA-PATRIOT-Act , https://www.history.com/articles/patriot-act ).
I knew it was soon after 9-11, but not that soon. That legislation was written and ready to go.
more recently perhaps, but originally 60 votes.
SAVE Act does not included money to be spent thus cannot be done via reconciliation which is budget related.
The Epstein mess continues to fester in the background. Mar 22, 2026, Tom Elliott on Substack: “After the Epstein Files, It’s Become All But Impossible to Believe He Killed Himself.” https://open.substack.com/pub/tomselliott/p/after-the-epstein-files-its-become?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web
It’s a long summary. Things I didn’t know: Because Bill Barr said Epstein killed himself, no forensic investigation of his cell took place; Epstein had a limpoma on his neck, the body did not; Epstein did not have a prostate (he had it removed), the body did have a prostate; a van showed up, and someone said he was switched, but that was quickly investigated; papers were shredded massively at the jail following the death; his townhouse was cleaned out of evidence; no one is responsible for any of it.
I have never spoken to a single person, liberal or conservative that believed that Epstein killed himself. If there is unanimity across the political spectrum on any issue, it is this.
Only fringe, corrupt, mentally unstable conspiracy theorists believe Epstein committed suicide. It couldn’t be more obvious he was killed with gov’t involvement…
Continuity of corrupt gov’t.
If the body autopsied was not Epstein, then how do you know he was killed?
You’re right. I should have wrote “killed or relocated with a new identity…”
How do we know a body was autopsied?
My gut says that pic of Epstein on the gurney, being wheeled out of the jail…is not right…did not look right. I have seen too many decedents…this one bothers my gut. It just did not look ‘right’….and certainly if all the other info out there…putting him in WITSEC would make sense?
Oh well…just my unsolicited ideas…
That is what Tom Elliott is saying, and he backs it up with the prostate, found in the body but missing from Epstein, who had it removed in an expensive operation, and the limpoma, missing on the body but three inches large on Epstein’s neck. Two elements appear essential, to whatever happened: Epstein’s cellmate was removed, leaving him alone in his cell, and Bill Barr registered the opinion that he committed suicide, which shut down any investigation that might have shown otherwise. Of course, every time Bill Barr’s name is mentioned anywhere, my ears prick up.
I did not know about the prostatectomy or lipoma…wow!
You’re right. It’s lipoma, not limpoma. A tumor of fat cells.
No biggie…I knew what you meant…I get ‘fat fingers’ a lot…
How do we know that information is correct? How do we know what a body has or does not have? The doctor doing the autopsy could alter anything in his report as could the investigation and primary recovery of the body at the time of the incident.
Why do you think this information by this author is correct? Where is his proof? As far as what was just said, most of the proof if there was some, has vanished. So what is the evidence this guy has that shows all of this as being accurate and provable?
The whole Epstein matter is a convuluted mess of lies and errors and misinformation. All could be considered intentional. Or not. It’s so highly manipulated by TPTB that to try and say any part of it is truth is almost impossible at this point. Too many big players involved to ever see the real truth in any of it other than Epstein was a bad bad man, imo.
Any one of us who has a clever mind, researches some Epstein history and events could probably do just as good a job as this guy of saying the whole death scenario is rubbish and Epstein is alive and well somewhere loving life. It would be just as unprovable as anyone else’s theories.
It’s grist for the mill. Some may read it and hear a bell ring. I like someone else summarizing what is in the files being released, so I don’t have to read them myself. I make no claim on knowing what is true or not, in fact I know that I do not know. People can give links to material, and not necessarily believe that material, but do it because they found it interesting.
We do know that the guard made large deposits in her bank account shortly before his “suicide” that were not investigated. That was reported in NY Post and elsewhere.
Epstein, the long-time Barr family friend, worked for Barr’s pervy Dad at the Girl’s School.
Buffet Barr was in charge of Prisons. And Witness Relocation.
Reminds me of the film, “Touch of Evil” 1958.
That would explain all those e-mails in which Epstein was talking about his testosterone levels, and how they were unnaturally low. Getting his prostate removed probably affected that.
Few doctors would risk removing a prostate gland. There are nerves going through it, and the risk of cutting them is high. But they don’t grow back, so if the medical examiner’s report says there was a prostate in the body, then it follows some other guy took Epstein’s place on the table.
That’s for sure.I even laughed when they said he committed suicide,knowing quite well he was Arkancided
As well as the tattoo, nose and ear. And don’t forget that NOTHING from the FBI can be believed at any time by anybody for any reason.
Why Netanyahu Duped Trump Into the Illegal War With Iran
Former Israeli peace negotiator Daniel Levy on how Trump’s incoherence has allowed a small settler-colonial state to pursue a far-reaching mission of domination in the region.
https://zeteo.com/p/netanyahu-trump-iran-war-israel
“Israel First”: Ex-Israeli Negotiator Daniel Levy Says Netanyahu Led Trump into Illegal Iran War
Such a shame voters elected this complete Netenyahu simp into the presidency. karmarla would have been so much better…
I wonder if “Trump” is finished yet.
“I wonder if “Trump” is finished yet.”?
Finished? Heck, he is barely getting started.
No brag, just fact.
i do not accept the premise that trump was “duped” by anyone.
pressure, politics, or not, he is his own man and made the decision on his own. and he must accept the consequence of its outcome, good or bad.
For 47 years Trump has held the same publicly stated view that the Mullahocracy should be bombed out of existence.
Iran destabilises the whole region with its terror proxies and its crazy, belligerent and extremist Mahdist ideology. It repeatedly threatens to wipe Israel off the map. It funds terror attacks around the world including in the USA, Australia and Europe. Iran’s proxies have attacked UAE and Saudi for years before the war started. Iran’s proxy Hezbollah holds the elected government of Lebanon hostage and it is too strong for the Lebanese government to disarm or remove. The whole region wants the Iranian regime gone and is terrified of it getting nuclear weapons.
Trump has had the same consistent policy on Iran for 47 years, the whole region wants the Mullahs gone and somehow you think Trump was sweet talked into this war by Israel. Give Trump some credit for being able to think for himself. I think he has demonstrated that trait time and again.
Not Daniel Levy again.
Daniel Levy failed at every peace negotiation he ever led (Oslo, Taba, Geneva Initiative) to the point that even Israel, itself, rejected one of his negotiated agreements with Palestine. He is now an analyst that speaks to anti Anerican publications.
Democracy Now is part of the “anti Trump Israel First conspiracy” crowd.
The odd thing is that the Palestinian Authority, established due to one of the Daniel Levy negotiations just backed Saudi if they want to attack Iran back, have expressed disapproval of Iran’s recent aggressive attacks in response to the Israeli/American attack, and get along with Trump quite well.
And Trump….
Who accomplished normalization between Arab countries and Israel via Abraham Accords (amazing peace success)…. and once said that Abbas (Palestinian Authority leader) was a better peace partner than Netanyahu as he was easier to work with…and is negotiating a Gaza peace plan (supported by Abbas)…
Is somehow being painted as a weak minded tool duped by Israel by this peace failure of a guy, Daniel Levy.
Trump’s peace record success in the Middle East speaks for itself. Daniel Levy’s failures do to.
Thank you, TM10! (Again).
Absolute bullcr*p.

Iran will not submit. What part of ‘fanatical regime’ is not understood? All this talk about negotiation is just that, talk, an Iranian tactic to buy time so harden defenses and build more offence. You can bomb this country back to the Stone Age but it will not capitulate as long as the mullahs and the IRCG remain in charge. There is a lesson in this: Let us never abandon our 2A rights.
Reminds me of the Monty Python skit the Black Knight with Iran as the Black Knight of the ME!
i agree, but am confused why you think it is iran asking for negotiations. it is patently obvious they are not the ones continually saying that there is something going on behind the scenes.
I don’t think it matters who is asking for negotiations. If its either or both the mullahs and the IRGC then it’s nothing but a head fake. If it’s some other person and/or entity then it’s bluster. The center of gravity in this is the Regime (both the mullahs and the IRGC). As long as they have power, there will be no peace.
uh… ok… it is patently obvious to me, i guess, that it is the USA that keep saying there are talks and asking for a ceasefire. iran has been quite consistent that they are not interested in one.
Pakistan has been helping and stated that there are negotiations.
Just because some entity in Iran is not aware of same, doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
The latest terms offered by Iran sound like they want the US to surrender and admit defeat.
I am going to take any “details” perfunctorily as “propaganda.” You’re not going to get to really know, now.
Exactly how I believe. The media news system is so biased and repeat rumors frequently and usually not held accountable for statements…bill
I think it’s comical that we are trying to negotiate with tyrants. Muslims lie to further the cause of islam, period. To believe we could achieve agreement with liars is foolish. Total defeat is the only answer.
perhaps we need to quantify “total defeat”? trump has stated we already did that. are you looking for dudes in turbans on the deck of the gerald ford signing unconditional surrender papers? how much money and blood should we spend to make sure that occurs?
Total defeat = Strait of Hormuz completely open for shipping, no missiles flying into neighboring countries.
I think it is smart for Trump to negotiate for the following reasons:
I fully expect the war to resume at the end of the five days unless the Mullahs offer to give up the enriched uranium.
Trump cannot afford the negotiations to drag on as it also helps the regime rest and reposition itself.
I don’t think there are enough Iranian people to rise up. I think that’s a myth some of our leaders have propagated. We had to put the shah in power over the Islamists in 1953, and as soon as we withdrew support from him, the Islamists easily took over. So clearly there aren’t enough people in Iran against Islamic rule such that some other type of government could form.
It’s hard to find reliable numbers, but through some internet research, I estimate 55-60% of the people there want religious Islam to govern their country.
I am not a fan of Glenn Beck but he was on the NewsMax Todd Starnes show last night talking about the Islamist and the socialist/communist uniting to destroy the west. Something I have posted here and make no sense other than to destroy the west. Socialist/communist deny and hate god. In Islam god is everything, god controls every aspect of life, even the government. I was in my early twenties and nearing discharge from the USCG so I remember this well. Our Captain had even been absent for over a year as he had been sent to Iran to train the Iranian Coast Guard under the Shah so this is all burned in my memory.
What Beck pointed out that I had forgot was that during the original revolution 1978-79 the socialist radical college students took over the colleges along with the radical Islamist taking over the government buildings. What I never thought about is after the revolution those college students disappeared never to be seen again let alone keep protesting. Beck claimed they were all executed, which I believe is true. They would have been seen as to dangerous to keep around as they had succeeded in one revolution and their goals where entirely different.
It brings us to today’s stupidity of the Democratic party supporting radical Islam and Iran. If they succeed they will be the first ones put to death by the Islamist. Islam demands no compromise.
Beck said he had a video and book coming out on this, it should be interesting.
They only support radical Islam because it too hates Western civilization. The elites would never allow muslims to rule them.
and I would add this also requires the large majority of those opposed to stay quiet and uninvolved, either out of fear or because they simply don’t think it matters and want to be left alone. Everything on the list is crazy, but if no one really opposes it we end up where we are today.
There were many people and groups that were ringing the alarm bells about each of these points more than a generation ago and they were labeled kooks. I have some stuff my parents had from the late 1970’s about the gay-rights movement and where it was heading. All of it seemed completely radical back then, but we are living it now and it’s destroyed multiple generations of children with filth and lies and is fully embedded in our school system.
“The Stonewall riots, which began on June 28, 1969, were the pivotal series of spontaneous demonstrations in New York City that sparked the modern LGBTQ rights movement, though they technically occurred in 1969 rather than the 1970s. However, police raids and subsequent protests continued into the 1970s, most notably the Snake Pit raid on March 8, 1970, which led to a significant protest march involving 500 people. “
Legal abortion began in New York City in 1970 and so did the “modern LGBTQ rights movement”! New York City is the center point of evil in the country! JMO
Every republican presidential administration from Nixon to Trump supported all of these things and allowed them to happen. Trump is the first president to actively oppose and fight them.
Time for a refresher course on Freedom, required listening, first five seconds if nothing else…”freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction”:
“those who have lost freedom have never known it again….”
Seen the loss of many freedoms in various ways over my lifetime….but it never really became prevalent until the last 20 years. And this along with allot of other issues seems to coincide with the voting machines and tabulators.
To try to curtail this, I have always voted for the republicans and they have failed over and over to even be an affective speed bump.
I detest the republicans and I despise the democrats. Some days it’s the other way around. Some days it both. Recently, it’s been always.
SD posted that he thinks the “something valuable” that the Iranian Regime shared were routing numbers/wire details related to team Obama’s cut of the Iranian Deal. Hard to bet against SD, but my money is on info that ties back to the Z-man running weapons to the Mullahs. Who knows, might not be mutually exclusive.
Now there is this:

The trouble with globalist’s Jenga Tower is that all the pieces are interrelated, which is why they built multiple layered defences so people couldn’t get close to it and, if they did, numerous protocols designed to regulate behaviour next to the tower. Then along came a man called Trump, who punched through the barriers, didn’t give two hoots for globalist protocols and set about pulling at the blocks and smiling when the tower rocked precariously.
No wonder they hate and fear him in equal measure, each block he fingers causes urgent texts to be sent, hissed conversations in corners to be had and sleepless nights and restless days. Watch the key DS players for symptoms of excess drinking and substance abuse.

Then I think back to the fellow from Bosnia, his name eludes me for the moment, who used to write about urban survival during the Bosnian war and the value of being the ‘gray man’…lots to think about…
Selco…that was his name…kind of associated with preppers etc. but he lived it in Bosnia and survived, so I will listen/read
what he has to say.
Daisy Luther, who learned “prepping” after a personal situation put her in to near devastating poverty…ultimately leading to her website, The Organic Prepper. A rags to riches story…I digress…she would occasionally link Selco’s writings…

There was a huge dust-up in the design&crafting community (communitIES if they seem separate to you; however they are not) when Pantone announced their color of the year for 2026 is “Cloud Dancer” aka White.
You’d’ve thought Hitler took over Binny & Smith (the Crayola crayon maker).
Any artist will confirm that a monotone color scheme is the hardest to make interesting-to-the-Human-eye/brain.
The world is looking DULL because nobody’s even trying to make their visuals appealing; it requires creativity & talent… which seems to be in egregiously short supply due to the deliberate dumbing down of Humanity by the psychotic usurpers.
It’s been quite the tempest in the creativists’ teapot… yet no colors have been removed from material availability for anyone to work with!
Though I DO concede that colors have been dulled & perverted due to synthetic dyes & pigments taking over industrial manufacturing.
Centuries old paintings have survived because the colors used to make the pigments of the paints came directly from NATURE… there was no other source.
Chartreuse & Forest Green, Persimmon & Paprika, Sunflower & Butter Yellow dishes (Fiesta, btw) – AND ‘Cloud Dancer’ White (tablecloth background) – are the colors of a table setting I’m currently conjuring (while toying with the idea of making a calendar with photos of table settings).
I believe this is a sane person’s response to “the dulling of the world” if that is NOT wanted… rejection within one’s personal control;
OR…
employing the dull as *useful*; also a sane person’s response.

Just a note of interest and reference on the topic of “Chinese EV’s” in the EU, Canada and the US. Indicative of the pressures being brought on the President Team as USMCA nears its renewal date, while there is a 100% tariff on Chinese Products.
Last week the “News” Tabs on the websites of the Major top 4 Investing Firms: i.e. Schwab, Vanguard, Fidelity and Blackrock … carried “news” stories that claimed polls conducted by those paragons of truth, the AP, Rueters and Bloomber, claimed US Consumers were clamoring for availability of Cheap Chinese EV in the US.
Also, note how these same investment firm news tabs use MT NewsWires to hide their circular sources.
Ace of Spades HQ–-Slavery is Part of China, Inc’s Business Model; Slaves Were Even Brought to Brazil for a Chinese EV Plant:
“Slavery is thriving in Chinese manufacturing, both in China proper, and at Chinese plants built in other countries. “Free traders” and others who blanch at the thought of corporations paying any labor expense have green-lit the aggressive renaissance of chattel labor in the 21st century. They are willfully blind to slave labor being the linchpin of the “China, Inc.” business model, because it gets labor expense as close to $0 as possible.
Meanwhile, libertarians and free traders say it’s all cool because consumers get lower prices. While I like to mock their buzzphrase “Tariffs are a tax on consumers,” they have effectively adopted a corollary phrase, “Abolishing slavery is a tax on consumers.” Sen. James Hammond of South Carolina made pretty much that exact argument in the 1850s when defending slavery in America.
The embrace of 21st century slavery as part of the globalist economic system is an abomination that I keep returning to, because slavery is as offensive now as it was 165 years ago. In a recent piece at The American Spectator titled “The War on Labor Expense is Renormalizing Slavery, Just in a 21st Century Form” I wrote, “So, despite America’s hangover from 19th-century slavery, many 21st-century libertarians still condone its practice overseas. If this type of slave labor offends our sensibilities when it occurs in Georgia, why is it acceptable for manufacturing that is outsourced to China to use the same labor system? The acceptance of slave labor anywhere in our supply chain makes the domestic acceptance of slavery possible.”
The Washington Post performed some important journalism recently in covering the horror of slaves being brought from China to the Americas to work at an electric vehicle plant in Brazil. It’s important to remember that if Chinese companies are brazen enough to use slave labor on foreign soil, think about how pernicious the use of slave labor is in China itself.
Brazil welcomed the BYD electric vehicle operation because the intent was to provide manufacturing jobs for Brazilians. The intent was not to bring in foreign labor, and certainly not to import slaves. Perhaps because Brazil was the last country in the Americas to abolish slavery (in 1888) it is very sensitive to those trying to find a workaround to bring it back. When word of slavery being used at the factory filtered up, the government investigated. It found hungry Chinese nationals living in squalor, and working all-day, seven days a week.
Much like sex traffickers luring girls into prostitution with promises of a modeling career, BYD and its subcontractors lured poor Chinese men into slavery by promising them a high-paying, overseas job. Once in Brazil, their passports were confiscated, and the promised pay was withheld. Armed security patrolled their sleeping spaces to ensure they couldn’t escape.” …….

Re: Homan
That is the kind of honest truth speaking,
that the c-dem$ and their media partner$ avoid, overlook, ignore, or spin … 24/7/365…
Yet, for many, the honest whole truth remains in plain sight.
The Save America Act will not pass the Senate because the Senators don’t want to give up their donors and Save America!!!! Donors over country!!! What’s that called???
Re: DHS funding, partial gov’t. shut down, c-dem / media spin, double standards (again)
Do c-dems ever mention the harrassments that c-dem paid protestors placed upon Immigration Control Enforcement (ICE) officers for months and months?
answer: no
Do the c-dems ever mention the moment that a ICE agent responded to months of harrassment?
answer: yes, repeatedly
And so, the dems hold up funding for DHS, for over 3 weeks…
Lines build up at airports due DHS (and TSA) becoming increasingly short handed due to people not being paid for work. (dems withholding funding).
They c-dems also do not want to be held accountable for illegal immigrants invading the USA during brandon years.
( they use ICE blame game narrative, and ignore the lawful fact that Illegal immigrants should not have invaded the USA )
The c-dems do not have the whole truth on their side.
The c-dems use miss narrative, spin… not whole truth.
The People know…
The SAVE America act is good for the USA and election integrity. (and the c-dems do not like that notion)
Yes, the HOUSE passed the SAVE America act, months ago.
It is the Senates turn to listen to (truth speaking) we the people of the USA… and vote yes to Save America…
Boom!💥.

Interesting discussion by Vince Lanci and Eric Yeunn about how Iran has been selling oil to China since the western countries imposed sanctions:
https://vblgoldfix.substack.com/p/eric-yeung-how-iran-uses-rmb-gold
In other words, alternative trade outside the US petro dollar.

It’s their own oil Iran is selling to a paying customer, China. It would be ridiculous to think that we have some control over that? 🤔
United States Constitution, Article IV, Section 4:
“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government…”
Without The Save Act, We are Living in a Slave State and Our Labor Is Harvested by Crooks.–Elizabeth Nickson:
The theft of the 2020, 2022 and 2024 elections has moved to the Grand Jury stage, probable cause established and records seized in Maricopa and Fulton Counties. Next up, Philadelphia, Detroit and Milwaukee. All five should and may well lie under close Federal supervision on voting day during the 2026 midterms.
“Did John Thune get a clench in his noble behind when eye-patch-pretend-pirate-guy lost his primary? Added to Trump’s relentless pressure Thune has, grindingly, consented to refer the Save Act to a vote, possibly next week.
Thune is, like most elected Republicans, pretendian MAGA counting the days when he can go back to playing defence and lining his pockets. The fact that voter fraud has deprived the Republicans of a clear unbreakable majority for THREE election cycles is clearly beyond him. He is functionally retarded. Or a shark committing treason.
Thanks to the 2020 steal, the grass roots is woken all the way up and targeting RINOs is their next step. They will enjoy it.
Therein lies the threat to established order. The obvious theft of 2020 and the Covid lying/bullying/cheating/stealing scam, the latter deliciously revealed by the White House on Thursday, activated the adults out in the Great Flyover. People who know the way the world actually works, saw how badly it wasn’t working. For decades they have been experiencing an almost imperceptible decline, where their lives and most particularly their children’s lives were being foreshortened by crooks. As is clear from the estimated $1 trillion a year stolen from all of us.
Solomon:
The guy is a sleazeball. 96% of his party want the Save Act.
History grinds forward. The theft of the 2020/2/4 elections is finally receiving Grand Jury attention, the grind being towards full, legal, Supreme Court recognition of systemic, massive election fraud. Fulton County’s spectacular FBI seizure on January 28th with Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence present, was a deliberate shock, signaling that the game just got real.
Methodically, painfully, dozens, if not hundreds of citizen groups have brought forward evidence that can be accepted by the courts. Tens of thousands have been gathering evidence, pushing it forward, inch by inch. In Harmeet Dhillon, Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, they finally have an ally in government. Dhillon is spearheading the White House’s effort.
She has obtained 16 states’ voter rolls. She is in litigation to get 29 more, blue and red states alike.
“This is the largest federal check of voting rolls in the history of America. It is a one-time integrity check to make sure that states are doing what the law requires them to do, which is to keep their voter rolls healthy, to keep non-citizens off the rolls, to keep dead people off the roll, to keep people who move to another state from being registered in multiple states illegally.”
Guess what. In just sixteen states – and not just the blue states either – Dhillon’s team at the Justice Department found tens of thousands of non-citizens and hundreds of thousands of dead people on active voter rolls. And tens of thousands of duplicate registrations, i.e. in more than one state. Mysteriously, these phantoms vote. In the case of non-citizens – migrants with drivers licences – most don’t actually vote themselves but their votes are voted for them. That said, Dhillon states that while they have managed to prosecute one illegal for voting, dozens, if not hundreds of prosecutions are stalled by politically-motivated States Attorneys. …
Trump stated on social media that come hell or high water there will be voter id in the 2026 midterms. Whether by executive order, or by the Senate, forgive me, finding its balls. The cowardice behind the Republican Senate slithering makes it clear that they do not serve any American. Because it sure isn’t in the service of the Republican Party.” …….
Read it all.

Can someone who understands, is knowledgeable about Florida state politics explain the special elections, esp the one where a seat that was clearly supportive of POTUS, the Mar-a-Lago one, flipped to blue?
I read 46,000 Republicans and 16,000 voted………..
Republicans vote for demonrats by staying home because “muh principles”.
Israel first has not been very popular.
The West Palm Beach area has always been heavily Jewish and Democrat. There are some Republican areas of Jupiter, Tequesta and Juno Beach but the overwhelming demographic is Democrat!
Republicans tend to have low turnout for special elections (Scott Brown a notable exception, but ObamaCare was daily news at the time).
Democrats, on the other hand, take every election seriously and get the ground game going.
Doesn’t take many votes to flip a district.
As much as I support MAHA, I find the “scientific” underpinnings to be questionable.
Do any of us trust EPA “science” anymore. They were taken over by ideologues some time ago.
Similar things happen with many other agencies. It is not just tobacco companies falsifying data.
Think about the “science” the EU uses to ban American products. How can anyone trust anything done with the goal to gain trade advantages?
Banning GMOs or colored dyes is done to give trade advantage. If we don’t trust biased Monsanto “science”, why would we trust equally biased government anti-Monsanto science?
And if all the governments and all the manufacturers agree on something like cell phones, then non government ideologues will arise and do “science” to “prove” cell phones are bad for us.
Going back to Monsanto, read this article about how ideologues used the WHO to stand up a quasi governmental organization to conduct a secretive and biased review to claim glysophates cause cancer. Unleashing a whirlwind.
https://www.realclearscience.com/articles/2026/03/24/what_the_best_science_says_about_glyphosate_1172261.html
How can anybody make reasoned judgements when the information is just ideological bias?
Ideologues fighting mercenaries. Where do we turn for truth?
Somewhere in the mess of fake “science” there must be some people not bought out by companies or governments and not zealots for some cause, doing sound science on these issues.
We would be well served by calling out the fake science and promoting those who do sound science.
Otherwise any progress will be erased by future fake science.
Well since the left control these government agencies and the “science” and they want to disrupt food production….my money is on them declaring , causes cancer. Not that I think otherwise but rather it has been blown out of proportion. Kinda like cigs they never mention the added chemicals the FDA allows
“… the “science” the EU uses to ban American products….” Is absolutely correct –
every other nation pays for their citizens’ medical care… NONE will allow the imported food supply to SICKEN the entire population; that would be national suicide (familiar?). SO… they all ban the food supply coming from THE SINGULAR nation that renders their own citizens the SICKEST in the developed world… US.
BTW… the ‘government” didn’t put forthe the Sunlight on the toxicity of GMOs… honest scientists did that decades ago – we suddenly have honest people in position of ‘government’ who are willing to recognize the honest findings rather than keep the Truth hidden.
The bias of “rigged science for profit” is clear.
The opposition… science in the other direction – is the bias of *Honesty*; honest investigation, testing, reporting findings honestly; done ages ago by *non-interest research*
What a concept
This isn’t hard to understand. & accept.. except for the deception-profiteers & their minions.
“… Where do we turn for truth?…”
Are you dismissing Truth BECAUSE you can’t discern it for yourself from all the information that’s available?
HONE YOUR DISCERNMENT is my suggestion; and ask for Guidance toward same in prayer.
PS… glyphosate DOES CAUSE CANCER – monsanto went out of business BECAUSE they were sued out of business by lawsuits for damage & deaths caused – proven – by glyphosate; also proven that monsanto KNEW the lethal-toxicity of their product & hid the Truth so they could sell it worldwide anyway.
Mr. MAHA – RFKII himself – did that in court… by doing that research.
You have catching up to do… please start here – and don’t skip any of these
{ https://thehighwire.com/?s=glyphosate+monsanto }
That’s Honest Science employed… and deployed against profiteers who don’t care how many Humans they maim & kill.
Monsanto was sued because of an extremely biased review by a hatchet organization set up by the WHO.
They put out BAD “science”. And it was used to sue.
I presume your response means that you have total faith in the WHO. And their rigged “science”.
I have significant experience judging good and mediocre science.
And we all have massive experience seeing “bad science” get government support and exile any who dared counter “bad science” with good science. GloBull Anthropogenic Climate Change.
We are watching government sponsored “bad science” drive energy prices up in blue states and destroy European economies.
And you trust the European Scientists to do good science when their paymasters need results that ban American trade?
There are so many tools to use in achieving ‘unfair trade, and Europe uses them all.
Even RFK jr. supports Trump’s EO to protect farmers by continuing using glyphosphate.

I guess all those cancers aren’t the worst thing that can happen.
Willful ignorance is what you’re demonstrating; you don’t know all you think you know, AND beyond that,
you don’t know what you don’t know.
I gave you 23 pages of fact-based information videos that you haven’t even considered, which is a nano-drop in the bucket of True information available.
Monsanto was sued because the facts bear out the sickened people’s experience of being damaged by glyphosate…
the people are winning every lawsuit because both independent testing AND monsanto’s own internal documents confirm the lethal toxicity of the product aligning with the people’s claims.
POTUS 47 et al inherited a nightmare-juggernaut; Facts are stubborn things.

the part you evidently missed:
“… “We are now changing course — without destabilizing the food supply.
“Alongside USDA Secretary Brooke Rollins, we are accelerating the transition to regenerative agriculture by expanding farming systems that rebuild soil, increase biodiversity, improve water retention, and reduce reliance on synthetic chemicals, including pre-harvest desiccation.
“We are also driving the rapid adoption of next-generation technologies, including laser-guided weed control, electrothermal and electrical systems, robotics, precision mechanical cultivation, and biological controls that replace blanket spraying with precision intervention.
“These solutions are not theoretical. Farmers are already putting them to work. Markets are scaling them. Now the federal government will act with urgency to expand their reach and accelerate adoption nationwide.
…”
Maybe you own stock in Bayer?
So no.
Plaintiffs’ attorneys paid the WHO to find a problem with glyphosate.
Show us the references please, and the sources… I haven’t see that.

Damn I love this woman!
Iran has firmly rejected a U.S.-proposed 15-point ceasefire plan, insisting on its own conditions for ending hostilities.
Iranian officials, including Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, stated that a temporary ceasefire is unacceptable and emphasized the need for a permanent end to the war with binding guarantees.
Iran’s demands include reparations, sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, and an end to U.S. and Israeli attacks.
Tehran maintains that it will end the war only on its own terms and timeline, dismissing the U.S. proposal as “maximalist” and illogical.
Iran also accused the U.S. and Israel of violating prior agreements, rendering new ceasefire talks meaningless without fundamental changes.
and the beat goes on……and on …..and on
What happened to “unconditional surrender”?
White House Press Secretary said moments ago that negotiations were ongoing. She also told the press that the list of U.S. requirements exploding around the internet is incorrect.
As usual, disinformation at every turn from everywhere, MSM, X and podcasts.
Wait to hear from the President himself.
I think the top dogs are purposely dealing in misinformation so as to find out who is doing the leaking.
I think the leadership in the IRGC is so fractured that one faction does not know what the other faction is doing. The President Trump team is negotiating with one group while the other group is listening to Russia perhaps. Russia wants to be involved in the negotiations.
Hmm! Where have we seen this scenario before.?
I still think that the US is not actually negotiating with Iran. Certain proposals in the media probably are speculative. But Iran, anyone who is able to make decisions in Iran have rejected it, that’s not fake news.
The Iranians for there part are absurd and any “negotiation” will very likely be you accept this or xyz are gone

Found guilty, 3 million dollars? That is chump change to them. After the appeals, America welcomes a new millionaire.
they won’t. The GOP spent years on their knees servicing the democrats and helping them create the current election processes. They aren’t going to vote to undo any of it.
I do have my doubts about how meaningful the SAVE act would be anyway as the election integrity stuff I have read indicate voter ID would have a minimal effect on the kind of cheating we saw in 2020 and after. It’s a small first step and should be passed anyway. Jungle tribes in Zimbabwe require an ID to vote. We are the only group in the entire world that does not. The system is designed for cheating, not fairness.
That’s walking and chewing gum at the same time. Way beyond their abilities. 😭

We were just talking about this sort of thing, a few hours ago…
So Grassley and Johnson released the information on how the FBI and others were collecting everything they could on Patel. If they did this with Patel, can you imagine what they’d also have on Blonde? Patel wasn’t really that close to Trump and not in his inner circle (apparently). Blonde was much closer for sure.
Given what we know about Blonde and how she conducted herself with George Zimmerman, you don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out what sort of leverage they might have on her. She has demonstrated herself to not be of high moral or ethical character when pressed in a situation (think zimmerman). Just think what 3+ years of deep-dive surveillance might produce in her personal and professional life.
I never expected much of anything out of Blonde, but this sort of revelation should seal the deal. Expect nothing significant on weaponization or election integrity from her DOJ. They will do BAU stuff and pet Trump like a house cat to run out the clock on his second term.

Viral ICE video was Standard Operating Procedure
TSA alerted ICE to mom and daughter at SF airport before viral arrest
Transportation and Security Administration staff reportedly alerted immigration authorities to a Guatemalan mother and her 9-year-old daughter before agents descended on them inside San Francisco’s airport.
New details about the woman’s harrowing arrest — which went viral after travelers surrounded the officers and posted footage on social media — raises critical questions about TSA’s relationship with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, including how checkpoint agents are sharing information about travelers they suspect are living in the country illegally.
San Francisco officials who oppose ICE’s presence in the city and its airport called Sunday’s arrest an “isolated incident,” which took place hours before President Donald Trump deployed ICE agents into more than a dozen major transit hubs across the country.
San Francisco International Airport was not on that list, and officials stressed the arrest was unrelated to Trump’s surge.
But government documents obtained by The New York Times reportedly show that the family was preparing to board a flight to Miami when they were arrested, moments after TSA agents flagged their names on a passenger list to ICE.
Under the Trump administration, TSA is providing ICE with the names and birth dates of travelers believed to have been ordered out of the country by an immigration court judge, allowing officers to quickly identify and arrest people in airport terminals.

Save America Act
Love it – Enough Failure Theatre
may all Treepers have a safe ,peaceful good evening…..
nite
More America last news from the odious Senate!!!
Why the R’s keep that parliamentarian is beyond me! She’s a damned democrat!
Thune is a clearly visible subversive.
He knows the SAVE Act yays will not meet the filibuster threshold of 60 votes. The vote will give political cover to numerous RINOs who are opposed to the ACT but will vote yay during the roll call.
Thune will continue to assert that he does not have the votes to either eliminate the filibuster or require a standing filibuster, and he will not reveal the names of the Republicans whom he claims to be in opposition to either or both strategies, thereby protecting the identities of his co-conspirators.
Thune will not allow supporters of the Act to leverage its passage by attaching it to any other legislation.
Thune will continue to openly, in an egregiously disingenuous manner, defy the President’s completely legitimate demands to pass the Act in order to protect the integrity of the nation’s electoral process.
If necessary, Thune will allow the Democrat appointed Senate Parliamentarian to scuttle an attempt to pass the SAVE Act via reconciliation.
Thune will claim that he “did all he could” to pass the ACT while it falls into the dust bin of history.
Thune’s determination to scuttle the SAVE Act has been clearly transparent from the start. The power to which he kneels in submission to thwart the will of 80+% of the national electorate is immeasurably great, and it is on a decades-long path to successfully destroy the foundation of our country.
What we are witnessing is too bizarre to qualify as outrageous fiction.

The Re-Zionization of the West
“On September 11, 2001, the world watched as nineteen men turned commercial airliners into weapons of mass murder. Nearly three thousand people died in the space of a few hours. The perpetrators left no ambiguity: they acted in the name of Islam, citing the Qur’an and the example of Muhammad as they struck what they saw as the heart of unbelief. For a brief, clarifying moment, the mask slipped. The ideology that had animated centuries of conquest, subjugation, and doctrinal absolutism stood exposed in the dust and fire of Manhattan, the Pentagon, and a field in Pennsylvania. Here was Islam as a political system that commands its followers to fight until the religion of Allah reigns supreme.
Within days, President George W. Bush stood before the Islamic Center of Washington and declared, “Islam is peace.”

Found the following in an article from last summer, June 2025, by Lee Smith
Trump’s Opponents Want to Humble the USA
What do Iran’s nuclear ambitions have to do with America First? A lot.
“… It doesn’t matter to us what a post-Islamic Republic of Iran would look like, but we wish the best of luck to all. We have no favorite among the Shah’s heirs or the Mojahedin-e-Khalq or surviving Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps moderates or anyone else. We hope you won’t kill each other, but that’s your problem, not ours.
Besides, even if we wanted to restructure your governing institutions from scratch, we can’t—because Elon Musk shut down USAID, the institution that made a habit of wasting billions of taxpayer dollars on trying to build democratic institutions in third-world cesspools. Maybe, once you get your act together, we can have trade and diplomatic relations. Someday. In the meantime, you can’t come here, because our borders are closed. And if you come at us again with bad intentions, as your revolutionary regime did for nearly half a century, we’ll blow your things up again.
