Once again Lloyds bank is mired in scandal along with Santander bank . Iran used UK bank accounts to evade Western sanctions.
There is no way UK intelligence services ( MI5, MI6) weren’t aware of these banks allowing the Iranian regime to break the US led sanctions. This explains why President Trump is so annoyed with Starmer. The UK Gov has stabbed the US in the back.
Will bank executives be arrested ?

STATES MOVE TO SAVE THE VOTE *
Dear Mr. President,
It appears that some individual states { 4 SO FAR} have taken the hint. If the Senate won’t act to secure elections, states can and do act to do it themselves. Now THAT is how States Rights are supposed to work.! Not everybody is against common sense.
Invigorating! THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP IN THIS MATTER!
*{attribution= The Federalist web site}
Unfortunately, the states who will do the things to fix their elections aren’t the states that need the reforms.
That has always been the case. For example: New York was an anti-freedom British sympathizer before we WERE states.
According to the excellent and exhaustive research that future Minnesota Governor Mike Lindell {my prayer, at least} has done, all 50 states are in some level of turmoil concerning elections. Any forward motion is better than none.
We must take courage in the fact that President Trump was elected by voters in states where corruption prevails.
Happy 250th Birthday to you!
They all have varying levels of corruption, it’s a starting point.
Is that the trade off for the ‘dignity act’?
The dignity act is extremely disrespectful to American citizens.
the house rinos are just helping to ensure the GOP base is so thoroughly disgusted with the GOP that they stay home in Nov. The GOP senate is doing a great job of that on their own, but the GOP house rinos needed to get in on the action. This is about enuring 2026 to 2028 is exactly like 2018 to 2020 for Trump.
For people that still don’t get it: the GOP hates Trump way more than the democrats do. They hate Trump in the same way these islamists hate jews. Many in the GOP would celebrate Trump’s death. It’s that bad.
Agreed. And as I learned from a recent post from Sundance, their goal is to destroy Trump and MAGA because they see it as a threat to their status quo much like the Tea Party was. So much so that they would help the communists (aka Democrats) to win and would consider it a victory for themselves. Pitiful.
That is correct.
So much so that they
would helpare helping the communists (aka Democrats) to win andwould considerare considering it a victory for themselves. Pitiful.At the very least, they removed their sheep’s clothing.
Yes… I truly don’t understand why President Trump doesn’t just tell the GOP that he is no longer a Republican and the GOP can “go to hell”…
There isn’t a “trade off” for that abomination – which would result in large scale war within our own borders the moment it was passed…
My state (Wisconsin) already did voter picture ID by referendum April 1st 2025.
If they hand out drivers licenses to illegals, like most states, what good is it ?
The fact is, as Sundance has explained, all that’s needed is a body count, including illegals, to print ballots. They could be mailed out anywhere, and/or filled out by anyone and mailed in, or just fed through the machines by corrupt poll workers. That’s much of what happened in 2020.
ID is only useful for in-person voting and only if it’s an ID secured to proof of citizenship.
Did they ban mail in ballots? Or late counting of suddenly found votes? Both necessary to keep elections fair and honest. Have any states banned those things?
Trump ran on exposing and fixing the massive fraud and cleaning-up our election system. The SAVE act is a very small first step, but most of this is law enforcement. You don’t generate tens of millions of illegal ballots and tabulations without breaking many, many laws. We’re not talking about a vote here and there across 150M counted. We are talking about tens of millions of votes.
We always hear from the apologists on the right that “they’re working on it”. OK, but the clock is ticking and the midterms early voting starts in under 7 months. Someone needs to get crackin’.
BTW: the person that was on-point for all of this has been politicking for a promotion from Trump. I got a better idea. How about making Ms Dhillion actually complete something (anything) successfully before you promote her. She boogered-up AZ and GA, among other efforts, and seems to be good at Fox News appearances, but not much else.
One way to fix it – unleash every AI model that uses agents in existence upon blue voting areas and their election infrastucture…at least according to that guy I bumped into today in the store.
Can the red states sue the blue states for having the red votes diluted by sanctuary policies and illegal voting in the blue states. That is what is happening. Blue states and blue cities are stealing the will of the True majority in this country, even with the safeguards of the senate and house weighted votes, the electoral college.
Looks like a coalition of the majority of states could sue the blue states and blue cities with clear math indicating the loss of representation (no taxation without representation) due to the clearly inaccurate representation.
This representation is multifactoral:
Illegal residents voting
dead people voting
mail in ballots counted which do not represent real people
mail in ballots changed
electronic voting machines that have multiple breaches in integrity
clear evidence of foreign and domestic alteration of electronic tallys
clear evidence of multiple counting of the same votes
illegal lack of transparency in primary and secondary tallies
illegal blocking of constitutional means of challenging votes
Media alteration and suppression of truth from general population
Legislators who are elected by this process have a conflict of interest in correcting the system, so they refuse to correct the system.
This is such a fundamental issue that We the People could justify insisting these standards, demanding with use of 2a force that these standards be rectified and subject to verification BEFORE the upcoming primaries and elections in November.
I think there are mechanisms where enough signatures could be obtained in all states to demand all the above vulnerabilities be rectified
Texas tried and was rejected by SCOTUS remember?
4 out of 50? That’s not very encouraging but thanks for their efforts to secure fair elections again. The SAVE Act has seemed to disappear from the headlines all of a sudden. How predictable for the republicans not to push the matter and get it passed.
States that do not ensure the integrity of their voters should not be included in federal elections. It deletes the lawful votes.
unfortunately, the illegitimate SCOTUS refused to hear that very case in 2020.
Didn’t they proclaim, the suing states “lack standing”? What do you mean lack standing? Five states cheating stole the national election.
We should have tarred and feathered them. Instead we went to DC to peacefully protest and we know how that worked out.
California Globe: Sacramento Dems Amend AB 2727: Serial Rapists and Child Predators Now Eligible for Parole at 65 yo.

Yep, they used to put them in gen pop and the problem fixed itself. I know in my state now they separate them in their own cell block. Sickos learning from sickos.
Off-Handed assessment:
Keeping them longer cuts into the kick-back bonanza. After a certain age, they cost more to keep alive than the income they generate occupying a cell for purposes of government funding. Plenty of younger ones to take their places, so no interruption of cash-flow.

Sundance, your filters need a serious upgrade. Truly stupid troll posts like this only serve to denigrate your credibility and CTH’s to the broader community you serve.
The clown post is wholly fabricated as anyone with an IQ above 60 would immediately discern. Chu has not been arrested. He is a native born American English speaker. JAG has zero authority to pursue, much less arrest civilian citizens as alleged.

Ignore the noise. We just watched history unfold with Operation Epic Fury; the eventual peace dividend will rhyme with the end of the Cold War, whether the doom chorus likes it or not. The real question is: why do so many on Wall Street, and the self-styled experts drowning in social media vanity, seem to root for America’s decline?
They parrot the narrative that the U.S. and the dollar are relics of a bygone empire, as if decay were destiny. These people worship the bureaucratic mausoleum of the EU and the authoritarian mirage of China, mistaking submission for sophistication. Their whole strategy is to sound grim and pedantic, mistaking pessimism for intellect, because talking down the future is the easiest way to impersonate insight.

Investors are sleepwalking into the biggest repricing of the modern era. When Trump says “WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL RESET,” he isn’t talking rhetoric, he’s signaling a shift in capital flows, risk premiums, energy policy, and global power structures that Wall Street has barely begun to price in. The playbook is about to be rewritten, and most portfolios aren’t ready.

The Bannon Media Backstab Of Trump – by George Webb—Bannon Didn’t Just Do Trump Russia With Jeff Epstein
“Steve Bannon has again parlayed a false narrative with his co-conspirator, Michael Wolff, to attack Trump and attempt to split the MAGA base when Trump most needs MAGA’s support, this time with the “Melanie was with Epstein a year before Trump” smear yesterday. Here is the two minute summary of Bannon’s decade long snake in the grass behaviour with regard to Trump, including Bannon’s tryst with Soros bagman, Miles Kwok.
Bannon is the designated State-sponsored infiltrator into MAGA, a War Room sleeper cell ready to be summoned to blow up bridges inside the MAGA movement when they are needed most. Bannon called Trump’s son a traitor with Michael Wolff at the height of Trump Russia is 2016. Now Bannon purveys the narrative that Melania was Jeff Epstein’s plaything for a year before he pawned her off on Trump.
This is the same classic “Inside Man” behaviour we saw from Joe Kent. When the President needs your support the most, blow the bridges. This is the classic snake in the grass, Trojan Horse operative behaviour.” …….
During the first Trump Administration, Bannon went running to the New York Times when he didn’t get his way on something. I’ve never been a fan.
“It’s delusion dressed up as intellect, and betrayal masquerading as analysis”.

“BREAKING: House Oversight Chair James Comer just agreed with First Lady Melania Trump’s request to hold public hearings for Epstein victims”….
Excerpt:
“My attorneys on the Oversight Committee have been communicating on a constant basis for MONTHS with the attorneys representing Epstein victims.
There are some victims who are willing to come in. Most victims aren’t, and I completely understand that.
But we’ve always planned on having a hearing with Epstein victims once the depositions have been completed.”
Cont….
Sorry but if you are going to appear on the hill in front of a microphone and not a hearing, your shit is weak.
there is no reason the hearing has to be on CSPAN, just documented. Put up or shut up.
now i thought that everyone who still considered the epstein issue to be important was “stupid” and falling for a hoax…?
It’s the timing. Where was the outrage about the innocent young women when Epstein was charged in 2006?
Which made certain people just want it more.
Are they going to ask them how long they were hookers before and after contact with Jeffrey? I think I’ve heard quite enough.
And they all are very rich now…. lots of settlements from all over the place.
I too have heard enough from those “victims”…
But, I still want to hear the names of the epstein pedophiles, hear that they have been indicted, arrested, and put on trial for torturing and sexually abusing children…
I’ve seen the file…no abusers are named and there is no proof documented (ie Photos of men in a pool is not a crime).
I’ve listened to the victims, no names have been released. Who do they say abused them other than those already charged or accused (with settlements)?
These girls will need to file civil suits ….and probably can’t because of NDAs.
if you know of someone the DOJ should charge with a crime…..who?
And, don’t expect any info regarding connections to CIA. Massie did not demand any files from the CIA.
I’d rather see hearings on how cases keep getting assigned to Boasberg and exploring the financial benefits any of his family is getting from NGOs who are flooding the country with illegals. Or on a dozen other things rather than more Epstein nonsense.
And I would prefer the Seth Rich file to be released.

Important reading from BioClandestine.
BioClandestine is correct!…BioClandestine:
To all the shills, doomers, and naysayers out there, you must understand, that you are fighting a rigged battle.
You cannot win.
Things are in motion that are far beyond your comprehension.
Our victory is already decided, and no amount of resistance is going to stop it.
Now, it’s not too late to correct course, but for those who still wish to oppose MAGA, you will continue to lose. It would behoove you to recognize this sooner than later, because you have no path to victory.
This is not a guess. This is not a prediction. The outcome has already been decided by those who hold all the cards.
Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
I’ve had many organizations and individuals approach me over the years, trying to recruit me.
I declined them all, because something didn’t feel right.

This happened :
A U.S. Navy MQ-4C Triton surveillance drone disappeared abruptly and unexpectedly from online flight tracking sites after declaring an in-flight emergency while flying over the Persian Gulf today.
Is this related to the Changed code?
Squawk 7400 – UK Introduces New Drone Code. Not adopted worldwide
The UK is not starting from scratch here. The United States FAA in fact authorized the use of 7400 already in 2016. For US-operated UAS flying under FAA jurisdiction, 7400 has therefore been the expected lost-link squawk for nearly a decade. The code hasn’t been officially recognized by the ICAO yet. Europe’s EASA updated its Standardised European Rules of the Air (SERA) in 2025 and introduced a new code (7601). That covers radio communication failure in crewed aircraft, but so far anything similar for drones losing contact with its master has failed to materialize.
“As it isn’t globally recognized yet, you will not see UAS squawking 7400 on Flightradar24 at this time” .
Who knows what the future holds?
Navy MQ-4C Triton’s Fate Unknown After Disappearing From Flight Tracking Over Persian Gulf
Tracking data shows the MQ-4C rapidly losing altitude after declaring an unspecified in-flight emergency.
Online flight tracking data shows the MQ-4C had just completed a roughly three-hour-long flight over the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz and appeared to be returning to base at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Italy. The online tracking shows the Triton had just crossed into Saudi Arabian airspace before making a sudden turn to the northeast in the direction of Iran. Available data also shows the drone rapidly descended from a typical cruising altitude of around 50,000 feet down to below 10,000 feet.
The MQ-4C’s transponder was broadcasting (or “squawking”) the code 7700, which is a general declaration of an in-flight emergency, at the time. The code, by itself, does not offer any indication of what that the emergency might be or how serious the situation is. There are also unconfirmed reports that the Triton initially sent out another code, 7400, which is used to declare a loss of connectivity between a drone and its controllers on the ground.
https://www.twz.com/air/navy-mq-4c-tritons-fate-unknown-after-disappearing-from-flight-tracking-over-persian-gulf
There have been all manner of stories about what occurred out there, many centered on Iranian misdeeds.
For myself…
After completing a round trip down the gulf, it took a 90 and veered directly towards IRAN while descending.t Its transponder shut off at around 10 Kft.
It had been in the air for 3 hours.
Its flight endurance time is 24 hours.
It’s a highly capable observation platform.
My own supposition is it was a ruse to allow it to do laps over Iran…
The available data indicates the MQ-4C Triton (did not) complete a round trip before its
disappearance; instead, it had completed a three-hour surveillance mission over the
Persian Gulf and was returning to its base at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Italy when it
deviated from its path.
Flight tracking records show the drone, after crossing into Saudi Arabian airspace, abruptly
turned northeast toward Iran, transmitted the 7400 code (loss of communications)
followed by the 7700 code (general emergency), and rapidly descended from approximately 50,000 feet to below 10,000 feet before vanishing from public tracking systems.
So far, there is no evidence to support the supposition that this sequence was a ruse to
conduct “laps” over Iran; rather, the rapid descent and signal loss following an
emergency squawk are consistent with a crash or catastrophic failure, though it
remains unconfirmed whether the aircraft was shot down or suffered a technical
malfunction.
Note I said round trip OVER THE GULF…*not* a round trip from/to it’s take-off point.
You are correct about there being “no evidence” – nor was any offered. Note I said SUPPOSITION.
Comprehension is fundamental.

Precisely. Start with The Art of the Deal. Talk with anyone who negotiated against him – or, with him – in real estate. You make sure they know you’re going to do something, but they don’t actually know what it is. Especially in this case, when the people you are trying to negotiate with are doomsday-driven lunatics. They don’t care about words. They do understand raw power. “Open the f&cking strait or we’ll blast you to smithereens.” They do understand that.

Case and point for my post above.
My point again, we give the federal government WAY too much money, so much that they can’t and don’t keep track of it. The fraud is rampant.
It is time to end the income tax and ween ourselves from Johnson’s great society. The benevolent government needs to end. Time and time again the government proves it is corrupt and wasteful.
>> yearly fraud “Roughly 10% of the federal BUDGET.”
Sounds about right to me.
Not quite enough to balance the budget, but a necessary start. If you don’t rid of fraud, there is no point in balancing the budget.
Bessent is one of the stars in Trumps cabinet. And it is a good cabinet with lots of good performers

Once Trump has all rogue assets eliminated and the global board entirely secure, we can proceed to rebuilding this world the way it was intended to be, without the tentacles of the establishment subduing us for their own nefarious agenda.

President Trump’s “Truth” yesterday attacking some of his most effective past supporters and promoters really threw me for a loop!
Why would a political celebrity (to say the least) gratuitously insult his most effective, committed, devoted, ardent and effective past supporters / promoters????

This is NOT TRUE.
Because they have one thing in common, Low IQs. They’re stupid people, they know it, their families know it, and everyone else knows it, too! Look at their past, look at their record. They don’t have what it takes, and they never did! They’ve all been thrown off Television, lost their Shows, and aren’t even invited on TV because nobody cares about them, they’re NUT JOBS, TROUBLEMAKERS, and will say anything necessary for some “free” and cheap publicity. Now they think they get some “clicks” because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobody’s talking about them, and their views are the opposite of MAGA —
Basic Grade School level name calling.
Or I wouldn’t have won the Presidential Election in a LANDSLIDE.

not Hand Flailing Fools like Tucker Carlson, who couldn’t even finish College, he was a broken man when he got fired from Fox, and he’s never been the same — Perhaps he should see a good psychiatrist! Or Megyn Kelly, who nastily asked me the now famous, “Only Rosie O’Donnell,” question, or “Crazy” Candace Owens, who accuses the Highly Respected First Lady of France of being a man, when she is not, and will hopefully win lots of money in the ongoing lawsuit. Actually, to me, the First Lady of France is a far more beautiful woman than Candace, in fact, it’s not even close! Or Bankrupt Alex Jones, who says some of the dumbest things, and lost his entire fortune, as he should have, for his horrendous attack on the families of the Sandy Hook shooting victims, ridiculously claiming it was a hoax.
These are the simplest, cheapest, most common Fake News Smears of all these people (i.e., Alex Jones’ Sandy Hook comments and defamation lawsuit).
Editor’s Note: What is really disappointing about the common smear section above is that it proves that President Trump did NO research and virtually gave NO Thought to repeating a common smear that can easily be debunked.
These so-called “pundits” are LOSERS, and they always will be! Now Fake News CNN, The Failing New York Times, and all of the other Radical Left “News” Organizations, are “hailing” them, and giving them “positive” press for the first time in their lives. They’re not “MAGA,” they’re losers, just trying to latch on to MAGA.
President Trump is right about this – the Trump-Hating Fake News will gleefully promote any political or media figure who bashes him.
As President, I could get them on my side anytime I want to, but when they call, I don’t return their calls because I’m too busy on World and Country Affairs and, after a few times, they go “nasty,” just like Marjorie “Traitor” Brown, but I no longer care about that stuff, I only care about doing right for our Country.
No, President Trump, after insulting them by scandalously calling them names that they do not deserve, I am afraid the no matter how important you think you are (World & Country Shaker) they ain’t coming back to your side anytime you want them to.

MAGA is about WINNING and STRENGTH in not allowing Iran to have Nuclear Weapons. MAGA is about MAKING AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and these people have no idea how to do that, BUT I DO, because THE UNITED STATES IS NOW THE “HOTTEST” COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!
So ONLY YOU know what MAGA is. OK. Got it.

Did Slaves Whisper “Memento Mori” to Roman Generals During their Triumph?
The concept of memento mori, Latin for “remember you must die,” has been a significant theme throughout history, particularly in the Roman Empire. This idea served as a reminder of human mortality and the transient nature of life.
The Origins of the Myth
The notion that a slave whispered “Memento mori” (or a similar phrase) to Roman generals during triumphal processions is an intriguing and widely repeated claim. However, is the historical proof for this practice concrete, or mostly speculative?
The myth describes a ritual supposedly part of the Roman triumph: a slave standing in the chariot behind the victorious general, holding a golden crown over his head and whispering, “Look behind you. Remember you are a man.” This iconic image, often associated with the Roman triumph (and famously depicted in the 1970 film Patton), is widely recognized today.

Yet there are those who try to beat the hooded man. Remember Walt Disney.
Without any link to this, it appears these are your attacks against the President.
Sad.
Feisty is using his critical thinking skills.
Blind loyalty is always stupid.
It is the quality of a sheep, not a citizen exercising free will.
Trump Hating Fake News (e.g., MSNBC – MSNow) is fully promoting MTG, Megyn Kelly, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, etc.
Shouldn’t that serve to President Trumps larger point? Especially, if/when those called out by name embrace their new fan base…as MTG did.
Feisty,
Initial surface reactions, ditto.
So something was very, very screwy, yes?
Give this a listen and see whether things fit a little bit better in the puzzle frame after you have a think:
There are trillions at stake.
Something has gone at least a bit wrong,
or a nobody like me would not have been able to connect enough dots to be able to profit off the pandemic in 2020 timing the market like I did – only the trillionaires who set it up and who then made trillions more running the play should have made that money.
The difference between them and me is comparative pennies versus trillions, of course, but also that I’m not a criminal psychopath monster who feeds on death, and they all are. They are the Epstein and friends who made an industry of biological warfare combined with information warfare. Hundreds of millions dead, yes, because they controlled the created virus, the deathly jab, the lockdowns, the PPE sales, the shorting the airline stocks, and on and on and on , all stuffing trillions more in the Rothschild and Rockefeller and Black and Wexner and Trudeau and Matt Hancock coffers.
They had a feast, filling their bellies with human flesh and their pockets with gold.
They have done it a thousand times. Myself, just from knowing a crash was coming and lies were being told by the “market experts”, only the once.
Is Team Trump psyching out the psychos?
Screwing the hedge funds using unpredictable moves that either create unforseen volatility or,
on the contrary, tampen it down to being range bound for weeks (as the markets have been more or less for the last six weeks)?
If Russia and the US are teaming up on some of these moves (floating oil reserves and sanctions waiver plays), can the banksters win the game,
or are they outmatched?
Possibly.

Great minds, I just posted it too!
How exciting!
I grew up on Golden Age Science Fiction and thought by now I would be able to buy a ticket and go to space so I am NOT one to boo hoo NASA.
However…
The following I saw elsewhere and I must admit it rings true.
“Didn’t we do all this back when I was a kid?
It was a big deal then. It is NOT a big deal now.
If we are still “slashing down”, after I saw the STARSHIP fly down and attach itself to its tower…which is like watching the Empire State Building fly down…and land…then “splashing down” must be some sort of Historical REINACTMENT…conducted to educate today’s children on what the world was like…back when John Glen made his first flight.
The crew of the Artemis is smiling…because they are so glad they are still alive….”
I’m just thankful for a successful mission.
As I’m sure are we all.
That does not mean we cannot ask why NASA is using ancient technology?
Can the red states sue the blue states for having the red votes diluted by sanctuary policies and illegal voting in the blue states. That is what is happening. Blue states and blue cities are stealing the will of the True majority in this country, even with the safeguards of the senate and house weighted votes, the electoral college.
Looks like a coalition of the majority of states could sue the blue states and blue cities with clear math indicating the loss of representation (no taxation without representation) due to the clearly inaccurate representation.
This representation is multifactoral:
Illegal residents voting
dead people voting
mail in ballots counted which do not represent real people
mail in ballots changed
electronic voting machines that have multiple breaches in integrity
clear evidence of foreign and domestic alteration of electronic tallys
clear evidence of multiple counting of the same votes
illegal lack of transparency in primary and secondary tallies
illegal blocking of constitutional means of challenging votes
Media alteration and suppression of truth from general population
Legislators who are elected by this process have a conflict of interest in correcting the system, so they refuse to correct the system.
This is such a fundamental issue that We the People could justify insisting these standards, demanding with use of 2a force that these standards be rectified and subject to verification BEFORE the upcoming primaries and elections in November.
I think there are mechanisms where enough signatures could be obtained in all states to demand all the above vulnerabilities be rectified
No. SCOTUS rejected the Texas effort to do exactly that
One more of a long line of SCOTUS mistakes!

Please someone explain to me in small words WTH President Trump is supporting that POS Graham?
Why not someone in primary, I don’t know. But, probably the same way any of us would vote for Miss Lindsey over the demonrat in the general if we lived in SC. And of course, the Miss Lindseys of the world know this.
As far as I am concerned there is a gap in White House transparency (oops, 12 letters).
He said Graham gets the RINOs to vote his way.
This administration has been deficient in its messaging. While they are dealing with multiple issues, some of which we are unaware of, there have been some ‘meaningful’ (personally hate this overused word) messages addressed to us plebes. I had some time to listen to a couple of Dan Bongino’s broadcasts today. I listen to Siriusxm podcasts as I am able to fast-forward through the commercial. I somewhat trust Dan only because Trump hired him and left on positive terms (hope that his health is ok) and more importantly, has actual experience in some of the issues that he speaks about.
On one of his recent podcasts, he spoke about efforts at the FBI – whereby he told his listeners that the FBI got rid of some departments that were up to no good. In this specific instance he was talking about dissolving a group that went after folks donning red MAGA hats. IMHO – to most of MAGA, we want scalps. And that is just the general public as I can’t imagine what those folks who were thrown into cages or prisons are feeling these days.
Dan described that around 3/4 of the violent crimes in this country are committed by around 1% of violent thugs who have been arrested at least eight times. Then Dan mentions that violent criminals were let into the country. AND….. This is a couple of minutes that should have been
IMHO – the FBI should have been dismantled as if we are to believe that there are good folks still working there, they went along with criminal federal employees to get along. So if Dan wants to brag about the FBI boasting about stats like the lowest murder rate in years, that might be true, we surely don’t need chest pounding coming from him and patel and his effective agency, rather we want to hear about the steps that have been taken to resolve some crimes committed by the agency in the previous administration that he is bragging about. So it was positive to finally to hear Dan speak about the dismantling FBI departments that were engaging in political targeting. More of that and less chest pounding about an agency that locked up innocent MAGAs and tossed them in cages.
The only other podcaster that I can listen to (with FFing through the commercials) is Webb on Patriot. He made a recent solid suggestion – that the messaging of this Administration needs to get to the local level.
Eric Swalwell of California may have just imploded, wrecking his chance to become both California’s Governor, POTUS one day, and possibly risk his place in Congress.
The San Francisco Chronicle released the blockbuster story today of alleged sexual relations, and alleged sexual assaults on a former young staffer.
Lots of corroboration, ex boyfriend of the alleged victim, medical tests, possibly text messages, and she allegedly worked for the Congressman in Castro Valley, CA, and DC. Drinks at Haps (Pleasanton, CA), which is close to the John Madden family hotel he uses (Rose Hotel), and other campaign events. Alleged to have whipped out his wango ala Bill Clinton during various trips, naked pictures sent via SnapChat, and fed drinks when she was already under the influence. While earlier encounters may have been consensual, later events sound like she clearly said no before and during encounters, and she also wasn’t able to give consent as she was inebriated or worse.
Swalwell lawyers have denied the events and noted their years-long relationship.
UPDATE: CNN / KCRA claim four women have made claims against Congressman Swalwell. At least one woman is named.
CNN joining the show means someone in Democrat circles know the score, and want him off the stage.
Fewer democrats in the race makes it much more likely that at least one of them will secure enough votes to finish in the top two and avoid a Republican-only general election

I am soooo disgusted and fed up with these liberal justices protecting violent illegal aliens. They and Chief Justice John Roberts have blood on their hands with all of these illegal aliens murdering innocent people. Such as that poor gas station clerk that was bludgeon to death with a hammer by this illegal alien.
There are countless other victims that were let of by these liberal judges, where is the accountability of these people? And all of these judges that are getting in the way of what POTUS is trying to do.

Without the U.S. Military in NATO, Russia could walk through Western Europe where they would be greeted as liberators and the populace would actively collaborate with them to annihilate the police, prosecutors, judges, bureaucrats, politicians and migrants. That’s the only way to restore Europe. Sadly, the Russians have no desire to invade Europe and free the Europeans from their own tyrannical government.
Beware the A-I-des of March…
A researcher invented a fake eye condition called bixonimania, uploaded two obviously fraudulent papers about it to an academic server, and watched major AI systems present it as real medicine within weeks.
The fake papers thanked Starfleet Academy, cited funding from the Professor Sideshow Bob Foundation and the University of Fellowship of the Ring, and stated mid-paper that the entire thing was made up. Google’s Gemini told users it was caused by blue light. Perplexity cited its prevalence at one in 90,000 people.
ChatGPT advised users whether their symptoms matched. The fake research was then cited in a peer-reviewed journal that only retracted it after Nature contacted the publisher.
My Take
The researcher made the papers as obviously fake as possible on purpose. The AI systems didn’t catch it. Neither did the human researchers who cited it in real journals, which means people are feeding AI-generated references into their work without reading what they’re actually citing.
I’ve covered the FDA using AI for drug review, the NYC hospital CEO ready to replace radiologists, and ChatGPT Health launching this year. All of that is happening in the same environment where a condition funded by a Simpsons character and endorsed by the crew of the Enterprise was being presented as emerging medical consensus. The people making these deployment decisions seem to believe the pipeline from research to AI to patient is more supervised than it actually is. This experiment suggests it isn’t supervised much at all.
disclaimer: wiki source – Faking papers to demonstrate how little peer review actually identifies errors & rejects wrong study findings has always been a thing… the oldest one listed here – granted a very short list of just 16 examples – is from 1974.
AI is just making a poor system worse… Human peer reviewers have never done a good job either…
{ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scholarly_publishing_stings }
“This is a list of scholarly publishing “sting operations” such as the Sokal affair. These are nonsense papers that were accepted by an academic journal or academic conference; the list does not include cases of scientific misconduct. The intent of such publications is typically to expose shortcomings in a journal’s peer review process or to criticize the standards of pay-to-publish journals. The ethics of academic stings are disputed, with some arguing that it is morally equivalent to other forms of fraud.[1]
…” (examples linked)
In holistic health education we study what creates & fortifies optimal robust Human health, we also examine the failures of the dominant medical system – iatrogenesis included – so we understand what’s done wrong (against physiology & the Human body’s innate healing as default setting) and how to avoid repeating those deadly errors, and what areas of the dominant system actually have value (trauma medicine; restoring breathing, stopping bleeding, setting bones, etc.);
I’ve been reading about research hoax papers – both deliberate and outright fraud – for 45+ years; there are books written about it.
The flip side of this is the actual discoveries that are ignored, and outright suppressed because either the discoverer or the discovery doesn’t fit the agenda of the dominant system. One very famous example is Ignatz Semmelweis, who discovered hand washing eliminated deaths from infections in Mothers giving birth in his maternity ward (1847) – he was vilified, defamed, blacklisted, and pronounced insane & remanded to an insane asylum, where he died without mercy or vindication.
It was not until *fifty years* later that handwashing was recognized & required of doctors in mainstream medical practice – after the microscope was invented and germs too small to see with the naked eye were discovered to exist.
Now we call that sort of thing that happens to doctors who discover unwanted Truths “getting Wakefielded”, because Andrew Wakefield was, in fact, “Semmelweised”

Alleged Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson’s fingerprints, palm print found near rooftop: report
Excerpt:
The warrants also included a note Robinson allegedly left for his roommate, whom he was romantically involved with, shortly before the alleged assassination. Robinson referred to his partner, Lance Twiggs, as “Luna.”
“Luna, if you are reading this per my text, then I am so sorry,” the note reportedly said. “I left the house this morning on a mission, and set an auto text.
“I am likely dead, or facing a lengthy prison sentence. I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk, and I took it.
