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 second term, he is weeding them out faster and choosing like-minded servants who multiply his effectiveness. 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 to the rights of freedom and self determination that have been quietly stolen from us.
He has rekindled the same healthy distrust held by our founders of government and men with too much power. 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 believes that nations who treat their people well will also be good economic neighbors with us.
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 73 of the 2nd year 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.
Amen!
Amen. Go God beat the devil.
There once was a tourist from China…
Who gave birth in North Carolina.
‘He’s an American’ – She cried…
But when the Supreme Court denied…
She promptly sealed off her vagina! 🙂
Lol. Excellent work, as usual.
Rectum? HE Damn near killed him!
He honored her with an offer. sooo she honored his offer … sooo honor offer honor offer ..
He offered his honor and she honored his offer… so all night long it was honor and offer her.

The probe centered on Fang’s alleged efforts to act as a Chinese intelligence operative by cultivating relationships with up-and-coming politicians.
Swalwell has not definitively denied having a sexual relationship with Fang. He purportedly cut off contact with her after being briefed by the FBI.
Celibacy might be a good thing…
The result of a Supreme Court denial of President Trump’s quest for order on Birthright Citizenship will be zero visas granted (maybe only men admitted eventually.
Prayerfully, another Republican president can continue the trend for another eight years. You know, for a long time the U.S. would not allow Filipino women to enter until they were past childbearing age.
I always thought the stupid act was simply an act.
Maybe it is possible for a 70 IQ type to hitch a ride all the way to the Supreme Court.
The pinnacle of Democrat policies that began in the late 60’s.
Enabled by GOPe sellouts.
It’s not stupidity it is her political beliefs which like all liberal political beliefs are stupid. KJB couldn’t care less about the Constitution, case law or the rule of law. KJB only cares about her political beliefs being up help.
While Kagan and Sotomayor aren’t much better they care enough about their legacy to at least try to look impartial and semi-intelligent at times, KJB does not.
The negligence of the Republicans is how this woman got on the court. Her answers in her Senate hearing should have disqualified her then and there.
The cowards were afraid to disqualify her over her DEI status. Disgusting.
Ketanji Brown Jackson is the first Black woman to serve as a justice on the U.S. Supreme Court.
Joan, let’s hope someone has the backbone to stop the visa’s once and for all. And halt all aid to illegals…that should send them back to their home countries.

“The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind,” . “When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious.”
Trump really is the imaginary villain .
sheepole
First it was an imaginary patriarchy so they demanded government be their husband.
Now that government does everything for them, the protest an imaginary patriarch king.
Instead, they want “Our Democracy”. An imaginary workd where they always win elections, they always make the decisions, and everything works out wonderfully.
The truth of the matter is that they make themselves miserable. Demand that everyone else be miserable, and are enraged when someone else does well. And even madder when someone else is happy.
My doctor says there is something physically wrong with the DNA of liberals.
Liberal Cognitive Dissonance is part and parcel of the Liberal mental illness.
Trump may be the first President to SEE oral arguments…
But Clinton was the first to HAVE oral arguments! 🙂

Monica L took her dress to the cleaners. The owner was away and his father was looking after the store. The old man was a little hard of hearing and didn’t quite hear Monica’s instructions. “Come again?” says he.
“No , this time I think it’s mayonnaise.”
I think it was more like “I’ll never wash this again. It’s been anointed by a President”. Or something similar to Now that I have proof, I’m set for life.
The argument wasn’t with the other oral participant, but with his wife.
Well, it looks like whoever spawned that story about Kristi Noems husband didn’t have plan to give it legs because I haven’t seen a word about it anywhere except here and I peruse 15 to 20 domestic and foreign newspapers everyday.
Oops!
I stand corrected.
I just saw a blurb about it on the RT website (no surprise there).
It was near another blurb about the demand for exorcisms in the US skyrocketing.
Ahh yes, modern journalism.
You must stay away from UK tabloids.
Even your ‘whoever’. It was first published in the Daily Mail.
Not that people here weren’t hyping it yesterday too. American tabloids like People and the New York Times had articles.
I even see a British rag covered how the Daily Show presented it.
Web searches are guaranteed to go deeper than the gutters. And deliver raw sewage. But that is what our MSM delivers.

Iran is starving! Grain and food shipments blockaded…
April 1, 2026, Iran is facing a severe and worsening food security crisis. While the country hasn’t reached a state of total famine, the combination of the ongoing conflict, the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and hyperinflation has created a “grocery supply emergency” for much of the population.
The current situation is defined by three main factors:
1. Triple-Digit Food Inflation
Official data released at the end of the Iranian fiscal year (March 2026) shows that basic food prices have essentially spiraled out of control. Many households are now spending nearly 40% of their total income just on food.
Bread and Cereals: Prices have surged by 140% over the last year.
Proteins: The cost of red meat and poultry has risen by 135%.
Cooking Oils: This has been the hardest-hit category, with prices up by 219%.
Dairy and Eggs: Prices have increased by roughly 117%.
2. Logistics and Supply Chain Collapse
The “de facto” blockade discussed earlier has physically stopped the flow of bulk commodities.
Import Dependency: Iran relies on the Strait of Hormuz for a significant portion of its grain and soybean meal (used for animal feed). With the Strait effectively closed since March 4, 2026, strategic reserves are being depleted.
I think you will find that the IRGC economy was already crippling the Persian people before any shots were ever fired by either Israel or USA.
Nor any mention is made of the years of stranglehold the IRGC has/had on the water supply for domestic and agricultural use.
It was the average citizen, rebelling…is what started all this.
Their version of ‘the forgotten men and women’….only…
They were getting murdered….
“New leader’s message to the people…”
Umpteenth verse, same as the first.
nuclear use
No water either
.Good morning Charlotte..check update on current war on web- moon of alabama.org…pronews.gr (engl.version available and whatdoesitmean.com……also even handed…. Hal Turner Radio Show…have a Blessed Day….
Those inflation numbers…could also be ours…
Again, the average citizen over there…is suffering…
Yep. All that sounds like the Mullahs imported the AutoPen and President Sippy Cup to run things.
But really, it isn’t Weimar bad. Where are the wheel barrows of worthless money needed to buy a loaf of bread?
Maybe their pals in Chyna will send them some of that great tasting pork.
That would test their conviction…starve or eat….?
I have gotten zero upvotes for pointing out repeatedly, that survival of the Iranian people is missing from our objectives. I have said “boots on the ground” is necessary to deliver food and medicine to the people, who are already starving, as the bombing goes on.
“You break it, you bought it.” I want success in Iran, but there are some voices advising President Trump, that the survival of the Iranian people is not our problem. If millions starve, it is our problem, because the Democrats and the whole world will blame us for the deaths.
The primrose path is believing we can bomb a country back to the stone age and just walk away. It takes an army to finish the job, when the people are supplicants. We need to take the Tehran airport and start the cargo planes flying in and out. With the remnants of the fanatic IRGC still armed, the people need real soldiers to turn to for help. Admiral Brad Cooper should run the country for two years, until elections can be held.
No.
Not our problem.
Russia will likely do some humanitarian aid from the north, and that’s A OK.
They are much closer and have a relationship.
Turkey too.
Do you really think POTUS, Erdogan, MBS and others have not discussed this?
Timing will depend on when the enemy’s will is broken (including the ones in London).
Last I looked, Russia was supporting the wrong side: the Islamic Republic, IRGC, Basij, etc. Turkey?! Rubio was clear: “we can achieve our objectives without ground troops, without any!” How?
Rubio also said if we get an opportunity to support a non-IRGC leader we’ll take it. President Trump knows Iran and the ME is better off with no IRGC leadership. Right now some of the holdouts are still fighting. Give it a few more days.
Sometimes we get a specific idea in mind and this precludes seeing other possibilities. Trust that President Trump cares about people. Worst case he will force an IRGC leader holdover to do what he wants done.
President Trump is forging “new” ways of doing things so don’t rely only on how things used to be done.
Ok, I’ll give it a few more days.
Another thing I noticed is that in the last few days (maybe a week?) both Rubio and President Trump have used wording that implies we’ve already had regime change — or they outright say that.
They’re walking a tightline in terms of the dreaded political issues associated with “regime change,” but yet they are willing to use those specific words. They could have just stopped at saying most of the regiem is dead.
This leads me to think they are pushing in the direction of implementing/supporting regiem change, but also are walking a tightrope in terms of inflaming many US voters.
I would dropped rifles with plenty of ammo into Iran. Plenty of ex-soldiers and others who want to rid Iran of Tyrannical Religious Leaders.
Why do you think many Democrats are all for gun control? “The Right to keep and bear arms” is anathema to most left wingers.
Well the European Union says they will help Cuba. Let us see if they help Iran.
I’ve been a registered Republican my entire adult life. In that time, I have never been so disgusted, disappointed and even enraged by the behavior of the democrats. They consistently behave as though they hate our Republic. They stopped being the loyal opposition long ago. Now they are mostly the party of insane traitors. I pity them, but I’m also increasingly concerned about their irrational hate for our President and willingness to destroy the country because of this hate. I feel as though if you vote for any democrat you are voting for the destruction of our Republic. I pray that if there are any remain sane members of the democrat party, they will move mountains to bring their party back to supporting and loving our Republic. I fear their hate will not end well for any of us though.
Hate is an emotion that kills your soul.
Democrats raise Democrats.
They don’t think for themselves. They are told what to think.
Know a family like that. One child escaped and is a staunch conservative thinker … the other is told prior to voting You know how we vote.
I saw a clip of an interview at a No Kings rally the other day, of an older woman asked by the reporter if she was always a Democrat and she said “ I was a Democrat in the womb. I will always be a Democrat. If I ever even thought about voting for a Republican I’d slit my throat.”
Seriously, that’s what she said. She was a normal looking elderly woman too, no crazy eyes, hair or clothing. This is the core of the Dem party, especially the older ones. They don’t care anything about truth or facts because if it’s not coming from the Dems they don’t even consider it nor vote any other way but for everything the democrats put forth. Bad or good policy or candidate, it doesn’t matter. If it’s from the Dems they are all in for it and they will never change.
There is no longer any part of the education system to disabuse these people of their ignorance. In fact, our system reinforces the lunacy or exacerbates the problem.
Scary, isn’t it.
They reproduce.
Yep. Traitors all. But why then do the people we elect choose to back the traitors instead of us?
Because they are liars.
They’re paid to…….and they are blackmailed if the paying doesn’t keep them in line with ‘both’ parties.
The Uniparty System got exposed by Lincoln and has been waiting for a Uniparty disorganizer since his assassination……The Tea Party was formed to knock the Rs out of unison with the Ds. Just as the Whigs were knocked out of unison with the Ds. A one party system is oppressive.
The D’s have remained the bad lot they’ve always been and have continued to make a 2 party system into a Uniparty.
Trump is the closest We’ve gotten to Lincoln; he’s been in touch with both sides and chose US over ‘them’.
We have to reach back into the Tea Party’s grassroots and resurrect it’s true goal; God and Country. IMHO.
AND choose candidates who know which party they are going to represent. Because when legal voting is established We will eventually get back to a 2 party system in ALL branches of Our government.
God Help US
Agree. But replace the word “democrat” with “republican” in the paragraph that you wrote and it still rings 100% true. Actually even more so because we should expect so much better from republicans.
The real question is: Why does PDJT endorse so many of the republican traitors even though they continuously stab him and our republic in the back?
This fall in the Michigan primary I will fruitlessly vote for an actual MAGA candidate instead of the “republican” RINO neocon ex-fib agent Mike Rogers who has Trump’s endorsement, as well as the support of the Michigan GOP establishment. And neocon RINO ex-fib agent Mike Rogers will inevitably win the republican primary.
But even though RINO neocon ex-fib agent Mike Rogers will have Trump’s endorsement, there is absolutely no way in hell that I will be voting for him in the “most important midterm election in our lifetime”. No way.
Sounds like you have true Tea Party sentiments!! Bravo.
The Uniparty has to be split into two parties once again. Lincoln did it, Trump and Our turn is upon US.
Recognizing real Rs is going to be essential to get rid of incumbents and electing the next ‘representatives’. As opposed to Uniparty continuing in control.
It’s going to take many more elections to really clear the Uniparty slate; the next POTUS is going to be crucial. So he’ll need all the seats in the House and Senate We can muster. Rogers may have to win, you decide.
God Help US
AZPatriot, the communist dems DO hate our Republic. It didn’t use to be that way but it certainly is now.

Here’s another thing that is being missed by most people….
ALL mail in ballots will not only be from an approved list of “citizens,” they will also be easily tracked and audited.
Anybody remember this big story in Trump’s first term, that quickly became forgotten?
“The United States Postal Service (USPS) has filed a patent application to use blockchain technology to streamline and secure mail-in voting.
Cont…
Blockchain technology…lol
Blockchains are designed for this purpose and can create an immutable audit trail for any transaction including votes. It would increase election tally integrity
Blockchains or not, fraud is real unless our votes are cast in-person, by citizens, voting on a single day, in a designated monitored polling place, with a picture ID
The glaring problem here is that this come from the Post Office, which should have nothing to do with vote integrity – NOTHING. Mail-in votes should be a rare special case and secured by a notary public not some blockchain scheme c/o USPS. In the tiny minority of cases like overseas citizen voting or others physically unable to go to a poll, a notarized ballot mailed before an early deadline, is the only safe solution..
Agree, but nobody would use a blockchain for commercial or public software. Blockchain is a buzzword and is only used for crypto.
One vote. One day. In person.
Anything else can and will be compromised.
Kennedy won by his mafia old man buying an election under those rules.
In person is the right answer, but vigilance in identifying voters is part of the solution.
Alito said Labor Day, Independence Day, birthday, are all one day.
Maybe there is hope.
Supposedly blockchain is unsecure to quantum computing.
Though I get mixed stories about how real quantum computing is.
Like Shrodingers cat, everything is possible until you look in the box
Blockchain is fine. The concept of blockchain is a continuous “chain” of transactions that are kept by the object itself. Each time the digital asset is given to a new owner, the transition is recorded and added to the object.
It’s the best method so far in tracking digital ownership. Selling a vinyl album means you don’t have it anymore, but selling an MP3 audio file doesn’t require you to delete your copy and you can sell it again. The blockchain attaches to the file and signals that you don’t own it.
But this also only works if there’s a transaction registry of official ownership, or else both of you claim that you are the last owner (your file chain has you as the last and their file chain has them as last). So the transaction registry puts an encrypted thing in the chain, which matches their chain, and your file stops working if you try to sell your copy again if checked against the Exchange.
And that’s how Bitcoin keeps itself unique to be sold/transferred uniquely to wallets. And the encrypted block is supposed to be uncrackable by traditional computers, taking 100s of years to randomly guess.
But quantum computing is weird, and theoretically can guess millions of keys in parallel. And the fear is a quantum computer will break the encryption key, rendering the transaction chain uncertain, and all of these digital coins could be “copied” making them valueless, or forging transactions to yourself. It’s a perception of a problem driving the value of owning one down.
That’s my understanding of the quantum problem for Bitcoin. I already think they are valueless, but I also think quantum computing at scale is 10s of years away, and not something to worry about today.
At a high level…..There is debate (and a real possibility) that the sheer power and speed of “quantum” computer systems can break existing encryption schemes (.e.g credit card transaction, secure phone calls, classified military command/control, … ). Blockchains are by their nature public but perhaps quantum systems could be used to modified/falsify blockchains.
There are folks here who know this stuff well who could clarify.
“Like Shrodingers cat, everything is possible until you look in the box”
Reminds me of infinite monkey theorem. AI speeds it up 😉
Investigations are one thing, accountability for what has been discovered is an entirely different animal.
Parting the Straits of Hormuz
Are we sure it is a straight part? and on the right side?
Watched a “man on the street” video the other day, the question asked what the person thought about all the talk surrounding the “straights” of Hormuz and no mention of the “gays” of Hormuz.
Have no idea how many people they asked that realized it was bogus but, they sure had enough that didn’t and answered about how gays have been traditionally suppressed and left behind.
Can we ever be sure?
You marry somebody who has a thing for your big ones. He seems like a red-blooded American and together you make 3 children. You become a successful politician with your ,’straight’ red-blooded, boob loving, husband by your side.
Surely if there were any problems, they would have surfaced when you were a popular Governor achieving Conservative agendas. Or when Trump appointed you. Or when you were the center of controversy.
But after you resign?
Can we ever be sure?
BTW, that is the most crooked straight.
Eric Swalwell’s Brazilian nanny’s visa was due to expire in Dec 2022.

Swalwell seems to have a soft spot for illegal alien women….
EXCLUSIVE:
Eric Swalwell PANICS when I ask about his Chinese spy girlfriend Fang Fang, and whether that’s a bigger “national security threat” than Elon Musk
I sat next to a drunk Swalwell at dinner for 90 minutes.
He was IMMEDIATELY compromised by a group of lobbyists he’d JUST MET, spilling intimate details about his job and asking for HELP CHEATING ON HIS WIFE. MASSIVE national security threat.
This guy should have his clearances revoked.
Swalwell spent his dinner bragging about “ORGlES” on Capitol Hill, telling them he’s bored of his wife and “only wants to f*ck tens.”
Worse, he spoke about ABUSlNG his power on the House Intel Committee (which he’s since been booted off of), saying he pushed to SUBPOENA Ivanka Trump because she’s “hot as f*ck”
THIS GUY MUST BE REMOVED FROM THE HOMELAND SECURITY COMMITTEE.
He CANNOT keep his freaking mouth shut.
After I began questioning him, Swalwell jumped back into the group of lobbyists to hide from me, but I pressed on.
Dude looked absolutely TERRIFIED and 100% guilty.
He knows he’s been caught. More to come later.
I have about an hour and a half of audio to go through

The orgy’s sound like what Madison Cawthorn said happened in DC.
George Santos was ran out of Congress before he was even convicted yet Omar is allowed to keep the grift going. How many Uniparty R’s signed on to run out Santos? He was run out because he voted with MAGA.
Most “republicans” were against even seating Santos when he was elected.
He didn’t belong there besmirching their brand/image.
The NY delegation was behind pushing him out & the democrats were happy to help with votes for expulsion.
That was over a year ago. Nothing happened to Swalwell since then? Nope nothing at all. He’s still in Congress, he’s running for CA governor and is still talking.
Sortor seems to have not gone further with this information or it was false. If someone has proof and legit damning evidence on any of the leftist in Congress or elsewhere then put up or shut up. Sick of these gotcha scams that never come to any real reveal with proof.

The Marco memes never stop being funny!
I just don’t like the memes. 😣
Did you know the United Nations has a roadmap to transform the entire organization into Sharia-compliant funding and projects across every single UN agency and body?
These are not individual agency initiatives. This comes from the very top of the organization as a global initiative.
And because donations are not enough, they also want to tap into people’s accumulated wealth and property after they die as a source of “funding.”
In 2022, a roadmap document detailing how to transition the entire United Nations into Sharia-compliant programs and funding sources was presented.
One of the goals is to “accumulate” wealth for the UN and its Sharia programs, including its Agenda 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and “the public good.”
The UN aims to tap into an estimated pool of money worth more than half a trillion per year, along with an estimated one trillion in already accumulated real estate, wealth, and assets.
The goal is to accumulate and manage all that wealth under the principles of “the Holy Quran,” because, according to the document, there is a “paradigm with capitalism.”
Currently, four UN agencies (UNRWA, UNICEF, UNHCR, IOM) officially have Sharia-compliant frameworks and programs.
A few other agencies, such as UNICEF, WFP, UN Women, UNDP, and others, are in the pilot stage.
WHO is apparently in the initial stages of planning.
These Sharia-compliant programs inherently discriminate against non-Muslims. I
n addition, the UN has formed partnerships and MOUs with organizations tied to the Muslim Brotherhood, which makes it even more problematic.
I repeat, I can trace this entire initiative back to at least 2015, when it was first presented to the UN General Assembly Fourth Committee (Decolonization).
For ten years, the UN has been planning and building these mechanisms in the open, with member states receiving all the details about it, both in writing and in some cases as open debates, sessions, and meetings, but nobody in our government thought this was outrageous and unacceptable?
Our taxes are being used to build a global communist sharia-compliant organization.
What is the next step?
If you are not an Islamic country, we will have no vote & be mandated to pay jizya “contribution”?
The United Nations cannot be reformed.

The truth about Israel’s ‘Death Penalty for Terrorists Bill’
The bill was sponsored by MK Limor Son Har-Melech who was 7 months pregnant when she was attacked by Islamic terrorists. The car rolled over killing her husband, Shalom, an ambulance driver, Seriously injured, the 24-year-old mother survived.
So did her newborn daughter.
Limor, still carrying the scars of the attack on her face, married again, had children and ran for office. The terrorist who killed her husband was freed in the Hamas deal
No one is talking about this. Instead the media and leftist accounts are running with clips of Ben Gvir clowning for the cameras rather than telling the courageous story of the woman behind the bill.

Due process, the right to appeal, and the right to confer privately with counsel are fundamental, inalienable rights, even for the worst people in the world.
Kangaroo courts don’t count as civilization.
As a new day of peace dawns in the Middle East, and the US gets out of any direct involvement and ascends to playing the big bad playground monitor from space, Israel is going to need to decide what kind of country it really wants to be.
Choosing to be the country most known for gang raping male prisoners, including with knives, while saying that is justified because the prisoners are subhuman? Not a good choice.

Open Letter to Anthony Albanese Australian Prime minister
Anthony, you weak, pathetic little man… a spineless invertebrate cloaked in the borrowed robes of leadership, whose every syllable drips with the psychological rot of a beta who’s spent his life dodging the arena’s true tests.
Shut your fu**ing mouth and know your go**amn role before you drag Australia any deeper into the abyss of irrelevance you’ve carved out with your own trembling hands.
In the crucible of this unfolding geopolitical apocalypse…where the Strait of Hormuz, that merciless chokepoint artery carrying one-fifth of the planet’s lifeblood, now lies strangled by Iranian asymmetric warfare and the iron calculus of US-Israeli resolve…you dare slither onto national airwaves to preach “economic shocks” and conservation like some defeated quartermaster rationing scraps after the battle’s already been lost?
This is not statesmanship; it is the whimper of a psychological weakling projecting his own frailty onto a nation built on ANZAC steel and frontier ferocity.
A true war strategist, schooled in the unforgiving logic of Thucydides and Clausewitz, would have long ago read the board: Australia’s 90 percent fuel-import dependence was never a policy…it was a suicide pact, a deliberate castration of strategic autonomy in the Indo-Pacific kill zone, where energy is the new nuclear deterrent and control of sea lanes decides who eats and who starves.
You, Albanese, embody the venal archetype of the modern Western invertebrate: a creature whose profound misunderstanding of realpolitik has left the continent naked before the wolves.
While Tehran’s proxies and great-power proxies turn the Gulf into a shooting gallery, you offer halving the excise tax and zeroing road charges as if fiscal bandaids could staunch the hemorrhage of a severed jugular.
Pathetic.
A leader with lethal precision would have stockpiled reserves like a fortress under siege, pivoted ruthlessly toward domestic shale and nuclear baseload to weaponize energy independence, and projected unapologetic hard power to remind the world that Australia does not beg at the table of oil sheikhs and mullahs…it dictates terms.
Instead, you peddle defeatism dressed as prudence, urging citizens to “conserve” and “avoid hoarding” while your green virtue-signaling fantasies evaporate in the heat of real war.
That’s not wisdom; it’s the coward’s calculus, the same psychological poison that has hollowed out once-great powers: appeasement masquerading as empathy, weakness sold as empathy for the “common man” while you secure your own perimeter.
Know your role, you emasculated footnote in history’s ledger.
Step the fu*k aside or grow the steel spine required to navigate this new age of fracture…where only the ferocious survive and the pathetic are culled without mercy.
Australia was never meant to kneel. It was forged to dominate.
Your address was an act of national self-emasculation, and the nation sees it for the venomous betrayal it is.
End this charade before the wolves smell blood.
https://nitter.poast.org/grey4626/status/2039314300808941937#m
The truly shocking thing about this post is that you could replace Albanese’s name with ANY Western leader, excluding Trump. I wonder if the coming events will signal the twilight of the feminisation of politics and society and a return of a more ‘masculine’ approach, as nations ditch consensus and think more about national self-interest and survival.
“…I remember the day when our blood stained the sand and the water….”
Yes, they are all from the same mold. Run out of the same playbook for over 100 years.

Trump has broken through it.
“I wonder if the coming events will signal the twilight of the feminisation of politics and society and a return of a more ‘masculine’ approach….” Feminization” is the elephant in the room for over 60 years in the USA. It is prevalent in Christianity where Jesus Christ has been effeminized as a gentle person “Suffer the little children to come unto me” type, He is not portrayed as part of the Trinity of God the Father Almighty, but a deity who is our friend. Our traditional churches are filled with liberal, milquetoast ministers and priests who make sure they don’t offend anyone.
Our education system is overwhelmingly effeminized and are busy teaching how to feel. Kindergartens through high schools are filled with teachers who don’t like arithmetic. Problem-solving and critical thinking is not stressed and in fact, ignored. Repeat after me exactly what I say and you’ll get a good grade. Hardly anyone fails as we must protect your self-esteem. Oh, and let us ignore the boys and call on the girls to ask or answer questions. You go girl!
The media is a great example of touchy-feely types. I’m looking forward to the take-over of the Ellison purchase of CNN and CBS. That could be the biggest turnaround in newscasting ever if it is managed right.
Large corporations and government agencies promote women and minorities over more qualified people to be fair.
This is not fair to competent women or minorities that would rise and don’t need special consideration.
It is a tough world out there and Utopians have no business running it. We need capable people leading us in government, education, religion and in business. We need critical thinkers, problem-solvers and accomplished people, not utopians.

Looking for someone to blame? Congress is a good place to start

No doubt. Once you really look, there is no difference in the two party system other than to give the voter the illusion of choice. I always toed the company line through “W”…forgive me Lord.
The curtain was ripped back in 2010 when I witnessed “both” sides attack that truly organic uprising which my wife and I attended 1/2 dozen rally’s/gatherings. The only requisite was pro-American and the swamp lost it’s mind, then you ask, why?
That’s when the rabbit hole takes you into bizarre even chilling realities, but explains JFK’s assassination, and what followed, mostly installed frauds. Throughout our lives for an agenda that doesn’t include the USA and Americans, Vietnam, Immigration Act of 1965, The Great Society, and on and on and on it goes.
We have a once in a lifetime opportunity, with President Trump and MAGA! Don’t squander it listening to news actors in the enemy MSM or installed idiot politicians.
Please Lord watch and protect our Great American President Donald J Trump as he shatters decades of fraud.
Amen!
I wonder sometimes about the words we use to describe things. Do people not get the message because we use jargon like ‘Overton Window’. Using jargon is like speaking in a foreign language. Few care enough to learn.
But then I read that editorial and it is written in plain clear English that anybody can understand. No jargon. And still, most people don’t get the message.
Politicians have been selling their souls to get elected, obeying their paymasters, not their voters, and blaming all they do on the other side, much longer than the CFR has existed. We were even making imaginary heros of Mr. Smith going to Washington to fight the corruption. Or at least to escape accountability by making it look like he is fighting the corruption.
As such, politicians have too much in common with those on the other side. Common paymasters. Common enemies, their voters. If the Uniparty didn’t exist, they’d have to invent it to escape voter accountability and keep the paymasters happy.
And we voters don’t want to hear the ugly truth. Not in jargon or in plain language. We cherish our phony heros. And we need to attack our phony enemies.
So we care deeply about our phony two party system. We get deeply invested in heros and enemies within that system. We never want to hear anything bad about our heros or anything good about our enemies. Or we don’t invest ourselves, and we just don’t care at all.
Both results are a win for the false choice Uniparty.
The truth of the matter is that solving problems puts politicians out of business. Voters don’t reward those who fulfilled promises, we only care about what they can do for us now.. But scapegoats are needed when making new problems or making old problems worse, or else politicians will rightly take the blame.
Once again, the very nature of campaigning to take credit for making things better, when actually making things worse, practically requires the creation of false choices.
And it is the nature of power that degenerates the false choices to binaries. Even in multiparty systems.
So, recapping. Voters want, but don’t reward those who fulfill those wants. Politicians promise, but instead make things worse. And create scapegoats to blame as things get worse increasing voter wants. Meanwhile, people with money pay for the results they want and power demands a binary.
The result is a false binary system. Where politicians are heros for one side and demons for the other side. And no voters ever get what they vote for, while both sides service the paymasters.

Roy Moore wanted to remove McConnell and McConnell was in panic because Moore said he was going to go after him in the Senate. How right was Moore to out McConnell as a traitor years ago?

Captain Carhartt will do nothing. Captain Carhartt is full of hot air and internet whines. Ask any republican in Knoxville not affiliated with UT what they think of his “work” in CONgress.

I genuinely have not heard about Burchett, but my interaction with the area is really limited to my kids at UT.
Sucks to hear.
Until very recently, I worked in and around Knoxville a lot. Quite familiar with both the university and Tim Burchett. If you listen, he always takes a very safe route to his pontifications. Pontifications always followed up with zero action toward the stated problem/goal.
He is just another “aw shucks” politician with his phony dadgummits. Check his bank account in a year or so..

If, at the end of the day, the Mullahs are still in power, then all of “Epic Fury” will have been for naught. Islam’s enemies forget or ignore what Islam has been since AD 700, and another politician believed their lies and was duped by their promises to lay down arms. Even though their scriptures authorize both practices. Another politician will have said that he had secured “peace for our time.”
Secure again in power, the Mullahs kill their opponents now by the hundreds of thousands. No one in Iran will dare move against them.
They will continue to tell the West, “pay no attention to what we are doing,” while they rush to complete at least one bomb – nuclear or “dirty,” as the case may be. Because they have to trigger the “End of Days” so that their “12th Imam” will pop up out of that hole.
If you don’t clearly grasp this madness, you are a gullible fool. Yes, they ARE lunatics, who will kill you quite dead. And be confident that Allah will richly reward them for having done so. And give them 72 virgins to f&ck forever!

Okay, . . . . but have you considered the symbolism of the light passing through the triangle (top of the pyramid) and coming out rainbow flag?
I don’t think that is what Pink Floyd or their album cover artists (Hipgnosis) were thinking about in 1973.
At least, I wasn’t. I was eighteen.
It’s an album cover from the 70’s, the rainbow had not been taken hostage at that time, Richie Blackmore had a band called Rainbow after leaving Deep Purple.
Wow! Its a flippin’ prism! Guess what, prisms are triangular. They also split the visible light into a spectrum. None of the symbolism you now attribute to that was recognized in 1973.
That is science. Prisms produce rainbows.
The Raibow Coalitiin was originally a Black Panther thing in 1969.
Jesse Jackson stole the name in 1984.
And it has been the Rainbow Push Coalition since 1996.
The LGBT stuff developed independently. The flag was created in 1978 to commemorate the 1969 Stonewell Riots. It was adopted in 1994.
But that was all American. Its Push onto the World Stage is less loosely defined. In Britain, that behavior was still criminal when that cover was designed. And the Flag didn’t even exist yet in America.
Yes I do, I actually use to fall asleep to that album. I would plug in for late night King Biscuit Flower Hour and Hearts of Space that came out of Central Michigan University college radio station. Kansas was in my tape deck.

Alan Dershowitz Says ‘Both Sides Missed The Point’ On Birthright Citizenship At Supreme Court
https://dailycaller.com/2026/04/01/alan-dershowitz-both-sides-missed-point-birthright-citizenship-supreme-court/
“This is not a case where the Supreme Court gets the last word. The 14th Amendment ends with the following statement: ‘Congress shall have the power to enforce by appropriate legislation the provisions of this article.’ And so Congress has the power to decide who is subject to the jurisdiction of the United States,” Dershowitz told Greta Van Susteren.
Sorry Mr. Dershowitz but you are missing the main point, this case rests on an Executive Order not an Act of Congress. Our do nothing back stabbing Congress has sold out the president and the real citizens of the USA. Let’s hope at least 5 justices do not do the same thing.
I would think there is a difference between enforcement authority and deciding constitutional citizenship eligibility.
So the answer should be that the EO stands unless Congress says differently.
No the EO stands until the next President that doesn’t like it and cancels it.
Gosh, so tired of reading or hearing “Congress needs to . . . ” Congress cannot fulfill its basic duty–producing and passing a budget. “Congress needs to . . .” = not a damn thing getting done. The Judiciary is in revolt. The RNC/GOP are saboteurs. The Government cannot execute (or pass) a proper audit. Other than that, have a great day!
Letter to the UK and EU
Fu*king Finally.
The Lion of Mar-a-Lago has roared with that signature, unfiltered lethality, and the message slices through the European delusion like a Tomahawk through a command bunker: the age of American subsidy for your parasitic cowardice is fu*king over.
To the sniveling, jet-fuel-starved co*k-suckers of the United Kingdom and its spineless continental cohorts…listen the fu*k up.
For eighty years we have bled treasure, blood, and industrial supremacy to underwrite your decadent existence.
From the Marshall Plan’s reconstruction of your war-ravaged empires to the carrier battle groups that have patrolled the Persian Gulf since the Tanker War of the 1980s, America has been your unpaid mercenary, your nuclear umbrella, your global logistics backbone.
NATO? Nothing more than the North American Tribute Organization…where the United States shoulders over sixty-five percent of the alliance’s actual spending while your militaries have atrophied into hollow parade-ground husks, underfunded, undermanned, and equipped with yesterday’s gear because you chose cradle-to-grave welfare states and green virtue-signaling over steel and resolve.
Geopolitically, the Strait of Hormuz is no academic footnote: it is the jugular vein of the world economy, funneling twenty-one percent of global petroleum liquids…nineteen million barrels a day…through a narrow chokepoint that asymmetric Iranian tactics…mines, anti-ship missiles, speedboat swarms…were designed to threaten precisely because they knew direct confrontation with American naval power was suicide.
We and our Israeli partners have done the hard kinetic work…the precision decapitation of their leadership structure. The heavy lifting is finished.
Now these same European freeloaders, who lacked the spine to commit forces when it mattered, dare complain about disrupted sea lanes?
Decades of Pax Americana have bred in you a terminal strategic infantilism: a learned helplessness wrapped in smug moral superiority.
You lecture the world on the “rules-based order” while outsourcing your survival to American sons and daughters.
History is merciless on this point…from the Suez Crisis of 1956, when your imperial twilight exposed the limits of European power projection without U.S. backing, to the present.
Your elites are psychologically castrated by comfort; your populations softened by entitlement.
You forgot that freedom of navigation is not a birthright…it is enforced by gun, steel, and the will to use them.
President Trump’s directive is surgical in its venomous precision:
Number One, buy the fu*king fuel from us…we have plenty.
Number Two, grow some long-overdue balls, reconstitute what remains of your navies, sail into the Strait, and TAKE IT.
No more American taxpayers dying to keep your fighters in the sky and your economies from freezing in the dark while you backstab and virtue-signal.
The parasite has fed on the host long enough.
The era of the United States as Europe’s security guard, banker, and scapegoat is closed.
Fight for your own oil or learn to live without it.
Adapt or wither. The choice is yours, but the protection racket is finished.
Grow a fu*king spine or don’t. We don’t give a fu*k anymore.

Let’s be real here. Europe has spent decades freeloading on American security. Even now, with every NATO member finally hitting the 2% GDP target in 2025.
But beyond the financial contributions, the real rupture is philosophical and the Iran crisis has shown a spotlight on it.
Europe worships process. Endless committees, consultations, and “predictability.” Macron actually calls it a virtue.
For Trump, this is paralysis as his style is to articulate a threat, fix a target, and act. The Americans are men of conviction and purpose.
Europe on the other hand lives by bureaucratic liturgy and in high-minded abstractions. Sure, Americans might make mistakes when acting.
But Europe never considers what the costs of not acting actually are. Just look at how their nations are doing on various fronts, especially on the border crisis, and you see the same cancerous rot that undergirds their foreign policy approach play out domestically.
It’s the same problem on a different scale. Iran is currently holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage, choking 20% of global oil and spiking prices past $100 a barrel.
Meanwhile, the regime is bleeding from strikes, its nuclear ambitions are still alive despite degraded capability, and its proxies are firing missiles at allies and oil tankers.
If this isn’t a clear and present danger to the global economy – of which Europe is a part – then I don’t know what is.
Yet when Washington asked to use European bases to finish the job – bases the US has defended for generations, the response was hesitation and hand-wringing.
The US did strike from RAF Fairford, but only after warnings that British soil could become a “legitimate target.”
If you cannot agree that a theocratic regime with eschatological ambitions who have shown no restraint in hitting out at Gulf countries and threatening the world’s energy jugular is an enemy worth confronting, then what, exactly, are we allies about?
Europe loves to preen about being tough on Russia. They issue condemnations and speeches and slap sanctions that hardly work to cripple the Russian economy.
Now here was a chance to do something concrete: let the Americans use the bases they already pay for, help clear the Strait, and actually degrade the Iranian war machine that arms Moscow’s proxies.
Turmp didn’t ask for boots on the ground or any kind of more offensive action. All he wanted was permission to operate from the infrastructure America has underwritten for decades. They couldn’t even manage that.
So can you blame the Americans for seeing NATO for what it is?
A paper-tiger alliance that expects Washington to bleed and pay while Brussels and London convenes and deliberates. If Europe refuses to treat Iran as the threat it is while happily letting American power keep the Strait open and the lights on, then the alliance is already dead.
Trump is simply stating the obvious and the Americans are becoming very reluctant to subsidize the European delusion any longer.

Italy: Denied Sigonella air base landing to US bombers. Defense Minister said relations are “solid and loyal.” DAYS after blocking US planes.
Spain: Closed ENTIRE airspace to US operations. Blocked Naval Station Rota AND Morón Air Base. PM Sánchez called it “not NATO collective defense.”
Poland: Refused to redeploy Patriot batteries. US burned through 1,200+ interceptors in 16 days. Poland said no.
Switzerland: Denied 2 US reconnaissance flights. Suspended $120,000,000 in weapons exports under “neutrality laws.”
UK: PM said “this is not our war.” Trump told them to “build up some delayed courage.”
Germany: President Steinmeier called war “possibly illegal.” WHILE hosting Ramstein — largest US base outside America.
That is: France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Switzerland, UK, and Germany.

SCOTUS Justice Ketanji Jackson argues for illegal aliens having birthright citizenship by saying if she steals somebody’s wallet in Japan, she has “allegiance” to that country
She has to freaking go. This is absurd. Actually. “I was thinking, you know, I’m a U.S. citizen, am visiting Japan. And what it means is that, you know, if I steal someone’s wallet in Japan, the Japanese authorities can arrest me and prosecute me. It’s allegiance, meaning can they control you as a matter of law?”
“So there’s this relationship based on—even though I’m a temporary traveler, I’m just on vacation in Japan, I’m still locally owing allegiance in that sense. Is that the right way to think about it?”
“And if so, doesn’t that explain why both temporary residents and undocumented people would have that kind of, quote-unquote, allegiance, just by virtue of being in the United States?” I guess it is April Fools

KBJ IS AS DUMB AS A BAG OF ROCKS
It is hard to imagine her being this dumb by herself. One might expect some of Biden’s advisors are whispering in her ear.
wearing an ear piece (connected to the nefarious brain trust), under the hair?
Is that justice, or just us?
I do not know.
“I pledge steal-a-wallet to the Flag …”
Nope. Doesn’t have the same ring to it. 🤡
Gorsuch had a question/statement about “jurisdiction thereof” and the way I interpreted his statement was that there is a partial jurisdiction meaning a person is subject to some laws, probably criminal laws and similar laws that are basic to civil society but is excluded from other rights of a citizen. I would think one of those exclusions would be voting and also holding public office. From what he was saying, I gathered it meant that illegals may be subject to some jurisdiction but not all. Disclaimer: My brain probably is doing a poor job of explaining his statement.
A genuine moron…just when you think a DEI appointment can’t get any worse. You seriously could not make this up. And remember, she is related to Paul Ryan.

I am done supporting politicians. No more money for this sinking ship of fools. I am going to live my life and enjoy my family. My Uncle, a former State Senator, Magistrate and State Cop told me, the left wing and right wing are part of the same bird. **** them all – I am out!
Imagine if Trump felt the same.

Ever Wonder Where $7 Trillion Goes?
“Bottom line, the government now spends $7 trillion each year. And they can’t figure out where it goes.”
https://quoththeraven.substack.com/p/ever-wonder-where-7-trillion-goes
The national debt isn’t an abstract number on a screen in Washington. It’s higher interest rates on mortgages, auto loans, and credit cards.
And the government borrowing is only accelerating.
Over the past year, the debt grew by $2.7 trillion; that’s a sharp increase from the $1.8 trillion federal deficit in fiscal year 2025.
So not only is the national debt growing, but the rate at which the national debt is growing… is growing. (If you’re a math wonk, the second derivative is positive.)
At the current trajectory, the debt will cross $39 trillion by the end of this month. And $40 trillion by the summer… not long after America celebrates its 250th birthday.
What’s crazy is that the people in charge of tracking all of this spending can’t figure out where the money goes.
On March 5, a government auditor reported that the Office of Management and Budget cannot even produce a complete inventory of federal programs, despite being legally required to do so.
It’s not that the OMB is lazy or incompetent; it’s that there are simply too many federal programs… and the complex web of spending makes it virtually impossible to tally up all the various offices, agencies, sub-departments, committees, special advisory boards, emergency programs, etc. that exist in the federal government.
Bottom line, the government now spends $7 trillion each year. And they can’t figure out where it goes.

When you are operating massive kickback schemes for doling out money, it is very important to make sure your crimes CAN’T come to light.
First step is to confuse Won’t with Can’t.
TINA PETERS CLEMENCY HEARING
9 AM MT
🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

Praying for Tina Peters’ release. May God have mercy on her and lead the judge to right this reprehensible wrong.
I suspect the motive for allowing this is purely political, sis.
A woman friend, an operative for the Marxist Dem party of the repugnant, liberal, corrupt governor, was convicted of an election crime and received 0 time in prison if I remember rightly.
Not even Jared Polis could avert his gaze from that one. Political targeting and persecution Berian style. I think his hand was finally forced.
As well know, God Himself works evil for good. I pray Tina’s nightmare is ended today 🙏🏻
The court of appeals threw out her sentence today. But it goes back to the same judge for resentencing.
I saw., BV.
Corruption covers itself and will continue to do so.
Tina is a political prisoner by any metric. From the Colorado gov to the Sec of State, to the judiciary.
The judiciary at all levels is diseased and cannot heal itself.
I am bereft for her.
