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.
Day 175 of the 2nd year of the 2nd term of this very stable genius. History is being made in the kingdoms of this world in the year of our Lord 2026.
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 continues to make 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 does not show humility before men, but his actions show humility before God.
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 is not afraid to call out our enemies.
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. Lord please bring your power and might in the daily working of this sacred Nation you gave us.
God is the Holy Trinity.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; both now and ever and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
Amen.
Amen
Amen
Amen!
Amen
Amen. Go God beat the devil.

🚫 CLAIM: The Iranian commander for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Navy recently said on state-owned media that no foreign vessels may pass through the Strait of Hormuz without being identified, tracked, and monitored by Iranian forces.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Despite everything happening in the Strait overnight (the IRGC firing on shipping, the intercepted cruise missile and drone) around 20 commercial vessels transited through in the last 24 hours under U.S. military coordination. Several more went through on their own. The Strait is still moving. For now.

“Iranian drone strikes have destroyed a number of US HIMARS missile launcher systems in Kuwait”
“three ballistic missiles directly impacting US ATACMS ground-to-ground missile systems”
I would wait for U.S. CENTCOM to comment on that: the above reference mentions only one missile and one drone, both intercepted.
RT.com has its own agenda, of course.
“RT.com has it’s own agenda..”
You betcha, by golly.
And it would be nice if some others here would realize that.
Look: it’s called “propaganda.” I have textbooks(!) on the subject that are a hundred years old. (Yes. They’re scary.) Feed your “Suspicious Cat” all the meat she wants. No matter which side the story came from. Every story, every time. Period.
This is a fact of life and especially a fact of war. It surrounds you. You can’t avoid it. But you can recognize it. “Think Accordingly.”
Every war has two fronts: the battle front, and the home front. Both must be carefully managed.
if you doubt about RT.com…go to- moonofalabama.org or http://www.whatdoesitmean.com... and you will love it…..have a Blessed Day.
All media outlets have their own agenda, including this one.
She used to post here on occasion! I wish she would return! Godspeed Sydney Powell!
The process is the punishment.
The Lawfare Tribe not only has control of the judges in most states they also control the state bar associations.
I miss Sydney Powell. I remember when Tucker attacked her on his Fox network show a few years ago , and I thought at the time, what is Tucker doing? She was trying to expose the corruption in D.C.
I’m glad she won and vindicated. She was very brave to do what she did.
I’m still waiting for Truth Friday and for the Kraken to be released.
Pretty sure that has been released over time, but she couldn’t do it because of the legal shenanigans. Sundance has made clear that much of the lawfare effort is about shutting down disclosures.
I believe the Kraken was to be Hunter’s laptop damning information. In good faith Rudy & Sidney gave this info to FBI. Of course, they had not expected the 51 characters to come forward and the mislabel.
The “Kraken” referred to by Sidney Powell was certain military intelligence units that had evidence of the election steal, but refused to release the aforementioned evidence, which left Sidney “twisting in the wind”…
He is/was serving his own master– himself. The blathering about his Christian principles are such b.s.
On her X account she posts excerpts from Treehouse and recommends Treehouse articles.
Amen to that!
Brilliant lady who really suffered! 🙏💕
Disbar the bar!
and the medical licansing boards, which proved themselves corrupt.

Bridges
For the first time since April 2026, U.S. strikes explicitly targeted Iranian bridges [1.2.4].
Confirmed by U.S. Officials: A senior U.S. official confirmed that the Air Force bombed two railway bridges in Iran [1.1.2].
Locations Hit: Iranian state media and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) reported that cruise missiles hit a railway bridge in the town of Aqqala (in the northeastern Golestan province) and two bridges on the route to Mashhad [1.2.2, 1.2.4]. The targeted rail line is heavily used for international trade with Central Asia, China, and Russia [1.2.2, 1.2.5].
Power Plants & Energy Infrastructure
While the complete destruction of a power plant has not been verified, significant strikes on energy and electrical infrastructure have occurred:
Bushehr Nuclear Plant: Iranian officials accused the U.S. of striking the perimeter area of the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant, which is Iran’s only civilian nuclear facility [1.1.3, 1.2.1]. U.S. Central Command released a detailed list of targets hit during the strikes, but did not mention the nuclear facility [1.2.4].
Electricity Grids: Attacks on electrical infrastructure were reported in the southeastern cities of Chabahar and Konarak. These strikes knocked three transmission lines out of service and caused regional power outages [1.2.2].
Keep hitting Iran’s targets until there is Nothing left to negotiate. Then hit’em some more., cuz they refuse to learn who’s the Boss now.
Blast from the past.
Bomb Iran (1980)
Back in the day, there was a tune by Capitol Steps (I think), “Who’ll drop a bomb during Ramadan”…it has vanished from the web…that had a nice rhythm to it as well.
It is always true that we try not to offend but they do it regardless.
So the answer is that Muslims drop bombs during Ramadan.
I keep thinking of their ‘closing’ the Straits, even though its international waters…its no secret that world domination for Allah, is their goal…
and the control of the straits is an indirect strategy…
Exactly! I keep wondering why we allow islam to be a protected religion under our 1st Amendment since it’s basically a death cult bent on world domination and if you don’t join them they will kill you! Just ask the Christians in Africa being slaughtered by muslims!!!!
And the UN does and says nothing. Absolutely n-o-t-h-i-n-g!!!!
America needs to raise the rent, significantly, on ‘that big beautiful building’ in Mid Town Manhattan.
The UN and EU are 100% pro globalist totalitarian.
Russia has gone into many countries ‘helping’ Christians; Syria, Afghanistan, Africa, and yes even Ukraine. Ukraine Eastern Orthodox Christianity was being wiped out for Islam’s return full force. The Islamic tartars.
In the USA the Roman Catholic Pope is willing to ‘share’ with Islam though and communism is OK too. Depends on how ya look at it. Mass migration was greeted with open arms; Catholic charities helped ‘save’ the children sent with Obama’s appeal. Send your children……….was part of Arab spring. How many millions are still ‘missing’……..
God Help US
I once had a priest tell me never send money to missionaries; it never gets to the children. Find a family to send directly to. Sound advise. IMHO
HIV was devastating AND they got away scot-free! Manmade is striving to be the ruination of God’s world. Get rid of God and guns; another Arab Spring goal!
Communism and Islam; bedfellows.
That’s counterproductive since American taxpayers provide the lions share of the UN’s funding.
The American Taxpayer, providing the “lion’s share” of UN funding is what is counterproductive…
President Trump: GET US OUT OF THE UN, convert the building to apartments for homeless Vets…
America needs to take possession of that building and make it in to apartments for homeless Vets…
“Crazy chicken Shiites” has also disappeared. I used to chuckle at that one as a kid when it would be played on my parents AM radio.
I would expect the Americans to well know not to hit a -nuclear- plant directly. We don’t need another Chernobyl.

Iranian Attack Update – US Airbase Kuwait Reports online are claiming that the Ali Al Salem Air Base in Kuwait was struck by Iranian ballistic missiles overnight killing 3 US Service Members. The photo that is circulating with this claim first appeared on “Vista” (vista dot IR), an Iranian based news agency. This story was quickly echoed by RT.
The image is confirmed to be from a 2019 oil tank fire at the Saudi Aramco Abqaiq (Buqayq) crude oil stabilization/processing facility (25°55′58.8″N 49°41′22.1″E). 2026 Google Earth map appears to align with the reports and images and not the USA base in Kuwait. The thick black smoke also aligns with oil fires. Images and videos from the time appear to show the same thick some blowing in the same direction.

How The ‘.30-06 Always Exits’ Lie Is Fueling The Worst Charlie Kirk Conspiracies
https://www.dailywire.com/news/how-the-30-06-always-exits-lie-is-fueling-the-worst-charlie-kirk-conspiracies
Present as an expert.
Sound reasonable.
Make false and or ridiculous claims. And make them with conviction.
Flood the world with nonsense before reality can get a word in edgewise.
The how to manual for selling conspiracies has to contain these steps.
Idle hands. Pampered kid who was started with traditional western hunting but the “hard work” part was lacking.
I have to wonder how many of Tyler Robinson’s generation are tee total mental messes like he became.
Another purview on “hunting”…..Just look at headlines across the country….a family targeted down state IL…(East St. Louis is in IL).
https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/crime/5-dead-2-injured-in-targeted-family-shooting-in-east-st-louis/63-d560426d-9d6e-45bc-93a8-74b5f99e90f8
Sounds different Aggiegirl. Sounds like two young family members attacked their own family. East Saint Louis would be more like “gangsta” culture prone to violence wouldn’t it?
My reference above was Tyler Robinson was obviously trained at an early age by dad? granddad? in marksmanship and hunting game animals. What seems lacking was passing on the traditional values of hard work and responsibility to the point it would withstand modern corruption of school/internet/gaming/DEI/…..
How to sell a conspiracy:
🐏🐑🐏🐑🐏🐑🐏🐑
Conspiracies make pundits money.
They also serve Obama’s fundamental change……conspiracies attempt to create so much confusion that the public no longer knows what to believe. Obama mentioned it as a tactic.
What I constantly question is how many actual posters here are so gullible as to lend credence to wild theories?……or how many are spreading confusion intentionally?
Indeed Lorrie.
Looks like my original response may not post.
I reviewed the material as presented and agree completely that the .30-06 using Remington Core-Lokt bullets mostly Does Not Exit.
I’ve shot a 30-06. It kicked like a mule and blew the whole damned target away. Hit a guy’s head with that thing, and his head is GONE. All of it. It’s that simple.
The 06 is a bad-assed hunting rifle for when the game is big. It’s gonna damage the meat. But the animal will drop.
Bullet metal, bullet weight and powder load all make a difference. I use a .270 with Hornady bullet hand loaded 130 grain pointed soft point. It will go right through a whitetail dear and be the same size out as in. Now if I use a Remington core-lokt 130 grain pointed soft point with factory loads, they may go through a dear or stay in, depending on what it hits and the exit wound will be slightly bigger. I have never ‘blown a hole’ in a deer. I did take a head shot on a fork buck in heavy cover and that blew part of the skull and one fork off the deer. Now if you are using 220 grain core-lokt or Winchester 180 grain Silver tips, yes you will blow a hole in a deer.
https://ammosight.com/comparisons/270-winchester-vs-30-06-springfield
Ballistic Silvertip
Weight Bullet 180 gr
Velocity Muzzle 2750
Muzzle Energy 3022
Sounds like an experienced view Jake but will that 130 Hornady load penetrate a deer end to end or quartering? broadside?
Which Hornady? An Interlock?
Well Mike this ain’t Hollywood ….. do you remember JFK was shot square in the head and his head didn’t explode did it? The round used on JFK wasn’t quite as powerful (but close) and it was a full jacketed load…..the one on Kirk was a soft point hunting load that struck the neck not the head…….see what I mean? Martin Luther King was shot in the head and the bullet lodged under his shoulder blade and did not exit. His head did not “explode”.
The .30-06 Springfield in most cartridge loadings has manageable recoil in most cases…. unless it is a really lightly stocked and barreled and a firearm of light weight.
In other words the old dated .30-06 has a lot of more modern competitive cartridges which greatly exceed its recoil but are still manageable by trained marksman.
If you review the experts linked in troublemaker10’s original post they are spot on……
Not being contentious just hewing to the facts and I have no idea how much firearms experience you have…… but I am knowledgeable enough to vouch for the expert claims.
SMDH- Is a “Mystery Bullet” the same thing as a “Magic Bullet”, seems that the Warren commission is back in the saddle again. 🤔
Not a mystery that a soft point hunting load fragmented and didn’t all exit Kirk’s neck. Conspiracy flakes gotta push terms……in an effort to redefine reality and evidence that contradicts their wild claims.
That’s why these ridiculous claim are baffling to me. I thought people knew more about how hollow point bullets behave after impact.
Of course you have to ignore all of the other evidence of the explosion under the shirt and the picture of the burned skin under the shirt, but you do you. Jon Bray has explained this in a very compelling way with video.
I’ll allow that…T2M
The 🌴 🏠 used to be a high-IQ outfit that did not buy the fedslop narrative – even on Butler PA – but so many here eat the Alpo when it comes to CK and TR. I don’t get it…😞
Perhaps the Alpo narrative is the podcaster’s who are paid for clicks? Perhaps the distraction of all the wild theories takes the public eye off of the Secret Service dropping the ball on a line of sight? Perhaps both occurrences do not want you to look at domestic or government sources and groups corrupting young people to do heinous acts of violence?
Perhaps you’re not asking the right effing questions and your fellow treepers are……..
Autopsy did not reveal any evidence of an explosion under his shirt.
Also, the movement of his shirt that some question has been explained by others looking into that aspect as being due to the ballistic physics of cavitation and shockwaves.
All the ridiculous coverage of last week’s hearing went over like a turd in a punchbowl.
The media desperately pushed out an unbelievable narrative while ignoring documented facts.
There’s nowhere on that campus nor the surrounding area that isn’t saturated with Flock and other types of security cameras yet, all that was presented was some chopped up AI ‘enhanced’ grainy footage.
And how can we forget the star witness Lance FurryPants?
Why wasn’t he made to present himself in person?
Defendants have the right to face their accusers.
Why is the media making a concerted effort to try this defendant in the court of public opinion?
What happened to this defendant’s right to a speedy trial?
He’s not a Lone Nut nor a Lone Gunman.
There’s no Mystery nor Magic Bullet.
The modern mainstream media is the new Warren Commission, indeed.

I resent any poster who won’t/can’t address the individual pieces of evidence presented and will not/can not make a logical fact based argument. It’s not personal with me and I wish someone would pay me for posting but that wouldn’t change how i view solid facts or evidence or a logical argument over bloviating opinions.
One year and two years from now….you willing to revisit?
So you resent yourself?
Candace, Baron, Ian, Trigger Smart, Jon Bay, and numerous others have presented evidence and asked questions about the fedslop.
TR will be found NG.
You have no video or eye witness of him pulling the trigger. The manly man furry, aka Lance Twiggs, could not make a positive ID in a non-rooftop video.
Why Treepers are not insisting on getting this right is beyond me.

It seems that the push to convince the public of TR’s guilt may also serve the purpose of convincing TR to take a plea, not only get the death penalty off the table, but also to put the entire ordeal to rest.
TR isn’t required to prove his own innocence, that is the prosecution’s job.
If he does go to trial he will be found not guilty because there is too much reasonable doubt.
There are numerous reasons why this topic isn’t being fully and honestly discussed here on this website:
Some people feel like it’s too divisive and discussion risks ‘fracturing MAGA’.
Some people cannot hold up for the attacks by posters hurling around canned accusations and insults.
Some people are very attached emotionally and it’s difficult for them the actualize the severity and seriousness of it all.
Some people are still stuck in believing what they see on the news even though deep down they know they are being tricked.
Some people are operatives helping push mainstream narratives and are not going to participate in honest discussion for obvious reasons.

“So you resent yourself?” Ad Hominem and strawman fallicies
“Candace, Baron, Ian, Trigger Smart, Jon Bay, and numerous others have presented evidence and asked questions about the fedslop.” – Appeal to authority – Instead state their conclusive proven “evidence”
we will wait.
“TR will be found NG.” Circular reasoning and a false assumption that you know what the jury will decide before the trial even starts.
“You have no video or eye witness of him pulling the trigger. The manly man furry, aka Lance Twiggs, could not make a positive ID in a non-rooftop video.” – Appeal to emotion, Hasty Generalization, Circular reasoning
Why Treepers are not insisting on getting this right is beyond me. Appeal to Emotion, No true Scotsman.
The critical thought process is a systematic, logical method for solving problems by breaking complex issues into smaller, manageable components to identify patterns, relationships, and root causes.
It relies on evidence, data analysis, and deductive reasoning rather than intuition or emotion, ensuring that conclusions are objective and well-supported.
Study Critical Thought Process
The People of Utah have initiated a proceeding intended to put Tyler Robinson to death as punishment for the murder of Charlie Kirk. We should all seek to establish fault based on a complete and fair process. I do not believe that we should accept without question everything represented to us by governing officials. We should welcome the perspective and contribution of those who undertake to investigate independently. This should be a place for an exchange of ideas and not for advocacy.
I advocate nothing except looking for facts and evidence and using logical and analytical thought processes. Appeals to authority, which is what folks quoting podcaster’s opinions and speculations are doing is a form of a logical fallacy.
A consensus of scientists agree (climate change) is two logical fallacies in one for example.
List of logical fallacies:
Key examples include:
😁
Rubio assigned a new job…
That is wicked. I like it.
It is a better photo shop job than the one with the turtle.
The photo of Mitch that was recently released was a fake, but of course! People have reported it is 3 years old. No wonder Mitch looked the picture of health. LOL. They really do think we are effing stupid.
I think they really do. 🤷
That “Rubio” shot demonstrates just how easy it is. But they make mistakes. Where the Turtle’s finger is supposedly touching a newspaper, the newspaper is glowing.
It doesn’t have to be “AI” to be an obviously manipulated photograph. The Turtle couldn’t walk past a camera without talking to it, so, the longer he’s off-camera, the worse we all know it is.
One you tuber mentioned hair color and hair length, while being ‘hospitalized’ for a month.
to your last sentence yes…they think about us this way since (s)election BHO/FJB….saaaaad
I have no idea, but
Someone now says the recent photo released of McConnell was a 2023 photo. Grok now says the photos are the same, minor changes, and neither are AI.

Too UniParty for my way of thinking; rules are rules and political thinking about tweaking the rules is foul play; IMHO
They did it with Biden’s lack of mental capabilities to run a country using Auto Pen; it wasn’t right then and it’s not right now with Mitch. The UniParty did that and it got US closer to their goal of NWO/communism.
God Help US
If McConnell is alive and can function in his Senatorial capacity by all means keep him in place; otherwise get a good replacement for him. Legal special elections should be ok. IMHO
I understand, but the way I see is that he is not making any decisions, like the Auto-Pen did. Just occupying the seat for the next two weeks.

The first meeting I had with Lindsey Graham after the 2024 election was with @StephenM in Palm Beach before President Trump was even sworn into office.
He had one question: “How much money do we need to secure the border and how fast do we need it?”
Biden had emptied the accounts and slashed enforcement agent head-counts.
We answered. He said he would get it done. And he delivered. While plenty of people in our party disagreed with Senator Graham on things, he was indispensable to our party and issues in many ways people will probably never know.

I doubt that very seriously. Mitch was all for himself and the Bush Cartel way of thinking NWO/Communism from his very first day in office. He was GOP/RINO anti Tea Party, he only bent to Trump’s way of thinking when he got the ok to do it. Then the dog and pony shows to ‘preach and bow’ to US, but oh, it couldn’t pass!!
Graham, O’Connell, McCain, Bush; all names of enemies within. AND there are more still marching to their NWO drummers. Dog and Pony shows for the last century!! UniParty born and bred.
God Help US
Draining the swamp hasn’t really gotten started; God is taking some of the worst before Trump has a chance.
President Trump posted a 30 minute video of Michael Savage on his Truth Social Website last night.
Michael went straight up attack mode on Commie attack on America.
Good. The more the better. Mark Levin has been doing the same.
Who cares, left the whiney baby in the dust years ago.
Now the dog and pony shows from the UniParty trying to disguise themselves as MAGA; they couldn’t hold up Tea Party standards and they ain’t gonna hold up MAGA either.
They just want their day in the spotlight to promote The Bush NWO/communism!! False flaggers need to be ousted once and for all. They are tried and true UniParty!
God Help US
Recognizing evil in sheep’s clothing has never been a strength of the Republicans/UniParty. ……..They fall for anything, cause they stand for nothing concrete, really. They just make a show of it.
They built all the Complexes to rule the NWO/Communism; they are ready and waiting …..
Leaked police radio recordings obtained by Iran International reveal that officers were ordered to open fire on protesters in Isfahan on January 8 and 9, with commanders authorizing the use of military-grade weapons during the crackdown.

I see where there are articles in other places besides the Treehouse regarding Mitch McConnell’s “statement” today – but no place for comments!
Is this part and parcel of the “Operation Mockingbird” phenomena/program?
NewsMax.com just took their comment section down last week….
Not surprising. I quit reading NewsMax comments a couple of years ago. Newsmax became so infested with liberal trolls it was unreadable. Trolls shut down commenting permanently or temporarily on at least Business Insider, The Daily Wire and Yahoo, and Breitbart is going the same way infested with liberal trolls. Liberal trolls also complain constantly about any conservative commenters and I don’t know why the sites cater to them and shut down conservative commenters. I think part of the problem is there are almost no liberal sites that let you comment, and those that do if you disagree with their editorial stance once, you get banned. So the liberals show up on conservative sites because they want to comment and constantly complain about conservative commenters. I don’t know why the site cater to the whining libs and shut down conservative commenters. (Daily Wire was the worst on that in my opinion)
Remember when Musk bought Twitter the liberals all went to Mastodon? The libs whined and complained about each other without conservatives to complain about the site became unusable and they went back to Twitter.
As the saying goes: Liberals are like mold they ruin everything.
Even the mods on Breitbart were trolls. Just sayin’.
Didn’t Newsmax go public on the stock exchange?
Yes and their news channel is very good. If you haven’t watched Carl Higbie on Newsmax watch him, he is great. You can also usually get his opening monologue on YouTube. Ex Navy seal and patriot.
Carl Higbie: ‘Shut up and go away, libs’
I open Youtube with Prager U, and I have never gotten a Democratic campaign ad first, then I switch to what I want to watch.

They’re all on BlueSky.
Hasn’t Sundance described the process that is causing sites to cancel comments or require logins to comment?
And tied it to how he is protecting us at TCTH?

The highly self-disciplined comments section that we have here is a vital part of the site. IF you have something to say, you are welcome to share it here.
As for me, I really don’t care which “side” you’re on, if you have a reasoned(!) opinion worth sharing.
Sundance is the Master of Ceremonies, but his is not the only voice I want to hear. “Speak up!”
It’s the Uniparty’s way of getting around US; controlling the offices/seats of Our government; keeping incompetency in place to save the seat! They did it with Biden/autopen, RBG too, now they are doing it with seats in the senate and congress………
When it comes to getting US ‘legal voting’ so We can be in control they have dragged their feet for so long they have it at a standstill, so illegal voting and illegals are more protected than US. AND the Uniparty controls politics as usual!
God Help US
Our control is withering away on the vine and the vine is dying; good time for NWO/communism’s growth to overtake US.
Our Churches are burning as Islam grows and builds mosques. tsk tsk
The UniParty is masquerading as MAGA………what else can go wrong. WELL, we’re honoring enemies too boot…….
US jails former SA Air Force general for being a ‘secret foreign agent’
Portia Anyamba, a former South African Air Force brigadier general connected to a State Security Agency official, was recently sentenced to six months in jail in the United States, where she worked at a government science and energy laboratory. She previously pleaded guilty to being a foreign agent and falsifying information while applying for security clearance.

FBI analysts fired after refusing to join Georgia 2020 election probe
Excerpt:
The analysts, a husband and wife, told colleagues they did not believe the investigation was justified under FBI and Justice Department policies, the people said, adding that the couple was escorted out of their office. The FBI neither confirmed nor denied that the two analysts were fired…..
….As MS NOW first reported on July 2, FBI Director Kash Patel has directed that about 260 intelligence analysts from around the country devote time to what a memo called a “priority investigation,” in Atlanta.

…’a husband and wife’… That’s is a problem in itself. 🙄
If they tell you to “investigate,” don’t say no …
Twenty bucks says they have different last names.
Twenty more that the females’ is hyphenated!
Your options are to do what you’re assigned to do, become a whistleblower or to resign.
They chose none of them. Buh-bye.
Trump told Graham he was preparing to launch fresh strikes against Iran after another attack on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
A person who spoke with Graham shortly afterward said the senator complained that he was feeling unwell. When the person urged him to seek medical attention immediately, Graham said he would do so Sunday morning after his scheduled appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
Graham then joked: “I can’t die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions, get Iran sorted out and do Israeli-Saudi normalization.”
He passed away several hours later.

Preliminary cause of Lindsey Graham’s death released by medical examiner
WASHINGTON — A preliminary medical examiner’s report indicated that Sen. Lindsey Graham died of an “aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease,” his office said in a statement on July 12.
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/07/12/lindsey-graham-cause-of-death/90893456007/
Aortic dissection is rare—a Canadian registry study estimated overall aortic dissection incidence 3.4 per 100,000 person-years. – https://www.aats.org/resources/2484
High blood pressure is a major risk factor because it increases stress on the aorta, but a dissection can still happen “without warning” and people can have undiagnosed/controlled/variable risk factors –
“brief and sudden illness.” – An acute Type A dissection carries a mortality risk that climbs by roughly 1% to 2% every hour after the tear occurs. When the aorta ruptures completely, death can occur in minutes—often before an ambulance arrives. The classic teaching holds that about half of untreated patients die within the first 48 hours, and even when treated about a quarter will not survive.

Vitamin K2—a neglected player in cardiovascular health: a narrative review
https://openheart.bmj.com/content/8/2/e001715
You should change your handle to Cliff Clavin.
You can get all the vitamin K you need in a good diet. Eat a healthy salad.
The older you get the harder it becomes to get all your nutrients by eating and unless your food source comes from soil containing all the micro nutrients you can’t possibly get everything you need.
Amish might but few others.
D3 and K2 help keep calcium in the bones instead of the arteries.
Kale, spinach and cabbage. (Yuck).
After that but with way less carrots.
And big pharma lobby pushes against the natural type supplements, in favor of their chemicals…which often create a health problem while attempting to treat the primary health problem…its a cascade of treating problems created by, well, treating problems created. Profits over people. I think Dick Durbin is involved in that one…trying to get nutritional supplements, controlled by laws.
The nutraceutical supplement market is thriving in Asia. People recognize the value of healthy forms of vitamins and minerals plus plant extracts that have benefits.
And? What’s your point?
One young cousin dropped dead of it while visiting someone in a hospital!
“The official story” is always suspect… I don’t buy it – specifically because IF he actually died of covid Vx injury, it will never be officially admitted. There’s a bit more of that in C&C’s essay today too.
“… The “brief and sudden illness” narrative and the FBI’s involvement cannot both be true in the same story. They are mutually exclusive framings. Either it was a natural death —in which case the FBI has no business being there— or it wasn’t, in which case “brief and sudden illness” is covering up a potentially thermonuclear mystery.
So, while we don’t know what, it seems likely there is more to Graham’s death than meets the eye. Who was Patel signaling to when he announced FBI involvement? The public? Foreign intelligence services? Somebody else? We may never know.
…
🔥 If we were playing “Senatorial Clue,” we’d have a long list of potential suspects. And we are just 48 hours into the story. Here are just a few of the theories I stumbled upon during my research this morning. Maybe…:
Every option except #7 is consistent with FBI involvement, since the crime would have been committed on US soil. Presumably on US soil. I forgot one.
One additional line of conspiracy hot-takes has Graham being accidentally killed in Ukraine— unintended collateral damage in the Russian missile strike on the Kiev drone factory.
…
🔥 It’s fair to say the Senator Graham conspiracy-theory-zone is completely flooded. Which itself is a potential clue; flooding the zone with conspiracy theories is exactly what the deep state does when it’s covering its own tracks. The CIA has a documented strategy of ensuring that so many competing explanations circulate simultaneously that no single credible version can gain traction. When everything is a conspiracy theory, nothing is.
Put differently, guilty parties hide most effectively in a crowd of suspects. So, add the deep state to the list.
To this point, suspicions about Graham’s death can be located only in the chaos of social media. Skepticism hasn’t penetrated corporate media, which is still running “brief and sudden illness.” I wouldn’t expect much closure.

LG played dog and pony shows so well he should have gotten Awards!! He was evil to the bone.
In the pinch he couldn’t be depended on until he made his handlers happy and his pocket money was secured; in other words he could stall the ball and make his puppeteers very wealthy as well as powerful, before any bill got passed.
UniParty tactics are all for show; some of the rewards go to the Rs and Ds, proportionately always. When the aisles disappeared and the UniParty emerged (early 1900’s) the US was overtaken and had only one direction to go; One Party/NWO/Communism and Islam to terrorize US into acceptance.
One government with Industrial Complexes to run the show; taking US out of the equation completely; illegal voting made US a third world country as Our heads spun with the chaos massive migration brought .
The US protects other countries while the UniParty destroys Our’s from within.

My hometown even has it’s own railroad the mighty MT&W. Currently the MT&W Railway operates six miles of track.

Awesome!!! Interesting bit of history.
Am liking the bell above the headlight!

I couldn’t say this in England because railfanning (trainspotting) is at least 3 levels below badger-baiting on the social acceptability scale over there.
But over here in countries that were actually built by railroads, it’s (somewhat) cool to be a railfan. Which I am. 😱 🤣
This week I’ll be showing an Aussie friend who’s a retired RR Engineer the RR action in my corner of Southern Ontario.
Sadly I suspect he’s here at the zenith of Canadian RRs. Around 40% of their traffic is US export dependent. Once USMCA ends in 6-7 months they’re done for. 😭
Interestingly one of the 3 Canadian stocks Carnage does hold is CPKC. But he doesn’t hold CN.
Not sure why. CP’s recent acquisition of KC brought them full access to Mexico whereas CN doesn’t really go there. But there’s still a fairly large country in the way… 🤔
Most of the “long haul” roads systematically consolidated. There’s a profitable “last mile” short line in our area, too.
Runs from the north side of town pulp mill to the south side of town paper mill carrying pulp wood and processed pulp, but has to cross two rivers to do that, the Wisconsin and the Somo. It was so slow moving us kids would jump many rides on the train.
Canadian Pacific bought Kansas City Southern a few years ago, too.

Did you know that Lindsey Graham was only 21 years old when he lost both of his parents?
After his mother died of cancer and his father passed away from a heart attack about 15 months later, Lindsey was suddenly left to care for his 13-year-old sister, Darline, while he was still a college student.
He later legally adopted her so she could receive military benefits while he served in the Air Force.
Whatever your politics, that’s an extraordinary responsibility for someone so young to carry.
Please say a prayer for his sister, Darline, as she mourns the loss of the brother who she described as, “kind of like a brother, a father and a mother rolled into one
https://nitter.net/KylieJaneKremer/status/2076211515502231840#m
It’s nice to read something nice about Lindsey Graham. He was not my favorite — I had issues with him. But he certainly did not deserve some of the disgusting comments I’ve read. He obviously did not go into politics to get rich quick like so many of them do. According to AI: “At the time of his passing, South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham had an estimated net worth of approximately $1.4 million to $3 million. His wealth consisted primarily of his congressional salary, a Senate pension, mutual fund investments, and real estate, placing him among the lower half of wealth holders in Congress.”
God bless his soul.
Yes, I had read this several years ago and even though he was rather aggravating politically his young personal life was quite altruistic and being quite the big brother. I like to think I/we would all do what he did. Basically he unselfishly gave up his entire young adult life to do what needed to be done.
How sick do you have to be to pardon a child rapist?
Sick enough to put tampons in the boy’s bathrooms.
Sick enough to be a fellow pedophile.
Bingo!

n an overwhelming 510 to 1 vote, the European Parliament has adopted an urgency resolution strongly condemning the escalating persecution of Christians in Nigeria. The resolution follows a devastating pattern of violence across the country, notably the recent massacre in Kawel village, Plateau State. Lawmakers are demanding strict accountability, urging Nigerian authorities to bring an end to the culture of impunity and heavily intensify counter-terrorism measures against extremist forces.
Highlighting the gravity of the crisis, MEP Miriam Lexmann emphasized that Nigerian Christians face relentless, repetitive attacks by Fulani militants, Boko Haram, and other organized factions. She noted that this widespread violence represents a deeply concerning, broader systemic pattern of religious persecution rather than isolated incidents. The European Parliament is now calling on its Special Envoy for Freedom of Religion or Belief to pay close attention to the rapidly deteriorating situation.

Oh no, not a condemnation resolution! Apparently the Eww is taking tips from our HORs in resolutions that mean absolutely nothing. Will the Eww go in and fight for the Christians? Of course not.

Morning Briefing
The US-Iran military confrontation entered a dramatically more dangerous phase overnight as the US conducted its fifth wave of strikes in six days against Iran, hitting dozens of targets across Khuzestan, Hormozgan, Isfahan, and Markazi provinces — with CENTCOM deploying naval drones (USVs) offensively for the first time alongside jets, ships, and aerial drones. [because 11,000+ strikes just didn’t do it – W]
Iran’s IRGC launched five announced phases of retaliatory strikes, targeting US military bases in Jordan (Prince Hassan Air Base), Bahrain (Sheikh Isa Air Base, Fifth Fleet facilities), Kuwait (Ali Al Salem and Ahmed Al Jaber Air Bases, destroying claimed HIMARS platforms and Patriot systems), and Oman (long-range FPS and floating radar systems), with Jordan confirming it intercepted four Iranian ballistic missiles and Kuwait activating air defenses against hostile aerial targets.
The Strait of Hormuz standoff deepened critically: ship traffic fell to a multi-week low, oil prices surged over 4% with Brent crude hitting $79.21/barrel, and Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson declared the US-Iran MOU has entered a “crisis phase”, threatening to abandon the deal entirely if Washington does not comply with its commitments — while the IRGC fired on commercial shipping in the strait, which US forces countered by shooting down an Iranian cruise missile and attack drone.
———-
Paragraph 1 is prominently featured in Iranian rhetoric as a fundamental breach, especially since the MOU ties the overall ceasefire (including allies/proxies) to US responsibility. Israel is not a direct party to the US-Iran MOU and has signaled it does not feel bound by it, complicating enforcement. [LOL! “complicating” – W]
Paragraph 1 of the MOU calls for the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon, refraining from the threat or use of force, and ensuring Lebanon’s territorial integrity and sovereignty. Iran interprets this as requiring the US to deliver a ceasefire that includes Israel ceasing hostilities and withdrawing forces from southern Lebanon.
That “MOU” did not come from Allah …
After 47 years of terror, which these madmen consider to be Allah’s holy mission, our Jefferson is finally confronting the Barbary Pirates.
There is exactly one way to deal with them: you have to kill them, lest they kill you. Law of the Desert. Signed pieces of paper don’t mean a damned thing.
I suggest being very skeptical of any claims by the Iranian regime of any damage or strikes made by them unless Centcom and independent sources (RT is not ones such source) confirm.
As I have said: “PROPAGANDA.” That’s what you must assume everything(!) that you hear to be, regardless of source or side. It’s just the way it is. Has always been. “The truth is accompanied by a bodyguard of lies.”

It’s going to his library when he leaves:
Divide the cost of modifying the Qatar 747 to AF1 standards by the number of days Trump has left in office.
Approximately $434,000 to $1,084,000 per day (depending on the final retrofit cost).
Breakdown (as of mid-July 2026):
Days left in Trump’s term: ~922 days (from July 13, 2026, to January 20, 2029).
Modification/retrofit cost:
Air Force/official estimates: Probably less than $400 million (Air Force Secretary testimony).
Higher expert/media estimates: Up to ~$1 billion (or reports of ~$934 million drawn from other accounts like nuclear modernization).
Calculations:
At $400 million: $400,000,000 ÷ 922 ≈ $433,840 per day.
At $934 million: ≈ $1,013,000 per day.
At $1 billion: ≈ $1,084,600 per day.
This is a rough daily “amortization” of the one-time retrofit expense over the remaining term. Note that the plane was a gift (valued at ~$400M), but taxpayers funded the upgrades for presidential/military standards (secure comms, defenses, etc.).
“Republican” = “fiscal conservative”? NAH!
🙄
Amen! 😉
The posts get dumber and dumber by the day.
All of this can be laid directly at the feet of top executives of Boeing who are DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE FOR A FAILURE TO DELIVER two new aircraft for the U.S. President. Those two 747-8 aircraft were official ordered in August of 2017. In one month, THAT WILL BE NINE YEARS SINCE THE TWO AIRCRAFT WERE ORDERED.
Qatar did a favor for the the USA and U.S. Department of War in providing a single 747-8 for U.S. presidential use AT NO PURCHASE COST.
Like many on this site, I am sick to death of your deliberately misleading and unwelcome posts trying to constantly smear President Trump. You must be an agent of the government of CHY-NA !
This stupid take was equally dumb the first time. It presumes no residual value post this presidency, which can’t be laughed at hard enough.
In case you didn’t notice, 747’s are expensive. Not too many airlines fly them. Retrofitting it to carry the POTUS would cost many ##CLASSIFIED## millions more. This is understood. It is intended to carry more than one President.
Your concern is duly noted.
Would you like to speak to the manager?
“”“Republican” = “fiscal conservative”? NAH!”
you got it a bit out of order………………………………………
“Republican” = Uniparty = “Democrat”
“fiscal conservatives” = saving taxpayers pennies while pocketing millions on the side.

Another take, by am assuming, an Obama lover…but worth the 12 minutes…the ending is priceless and worth it at about 12:30 and the 11:13 discussion of Elaine’s eyebrows.
Beshear says essentially : The state constitution says I can appoint people to fill sttae vacancies, so sure, that means I can also appoint people to fill a US Senate seat vacancy for Kentucky.
Sadly enough most US voters will believe such a blantant contradiction and lie.
Special Election Only: Five states currently require Senate vacancies to be filled only by special elections; their governors are not empowered to fill a vacancy by appointment. They are Kentucky, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin. Typically, these states provide for an expedited election process in order to reduce the period during which the seat is vacant. If the vacancy falls late in the term, the seat is filled at the regularly scheduled general election.
But even a worse reflection on the American public’s understanding of how much power the States lost via the 17th Amendment.

“But even a worse reflection on the American public’s understanding of how much power the States lost via the 17th Amendment.”
Second this! It broke the Constitutional Republic and we have been limping along ever since the 1913 ratification.

Lindsay Graham would be such a being. The stink that wiped off on him from his stint as John McCain’s number two is impossible for me to overlook.
Like most politicians he was a chameleon when the winds of resistance came, he’d proudly point and proclaim the ugly baby, then fall back into the ranks of the swamp rats and toe the line.
Perhaps this is what survival looks like in the DC swamp, you know, reaching across the aisle to keep the country/government working. Especially when it comes to bombing something. There are some things that need bombing like Iran, but the Ukraine?
For 47 years Iran has been a deadly pain in our a_ss. Thanks Jimmy Carter, another one we’re not speak ill of, oh well, nobody’s perfect.
If our Great American President Donald J Trump considered him a friend, that’s okay by me, so I’ll say RIP Sen. Graham.
MAGA! …with God the only way.
The current Iranian small, random attacks against tankers are not what they likely could be (unstoppable swarms), but they conserve drones and just continuously spread fear, uncertainty and doubt (FUD) about transiting through the Strait, thereby reducing transits. Because they’re not stupid.
By a country that, like Iran, has no conventional navy:
Ukraine says it has attacked nearly 50 ships in the Sea of Azov over the past five days.

The long-range drone attacks are targeting Russian oil tankers, adding to that nation’s burgeoning war-induced energy woes.

We have a cat and mouse game going on in Frankfort, Ky.
Gov. Andy desperately wants to appoint a Dumb to the Senate, to enhance his improbable chance of being the primary winner.
However, the Ky legislature passed a law requiring a special election, Gov Andy has said he will challenge the law. Too bad for him McConnell (or his staff)is holding on, so no appointment possible.
This is probably the best outcome for balance of power.
If not for the ill effects of decades of the turtles negative influence on Kentucky and national politics (especially wielding the Senate campaign funds hammer against MAGA candidates…………a Dim would not be in the Kentucky Governors seat.
Maybe, but don’t we have to play the hand we are dealt?
Lindsey Graham, a profile in courage
Jul 13, 2026
“Senator Lindsey Graham died this weekend from a heart attack, two days after his 71st birthday. He left behind no wife, no children and not much of a fortune—at best $3 million after 33 years in Congress.
But he bequeathed to the American people a fair and impartial Supreme Court that had the boldness to take on the powers of the federal bureaucracy (West Virginia v. EPA) and return to the states powers previous courts and Congress had stolen (Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization)….
…Nevertheless, Republican senators were reluctant to endorse him.
Graham rose to the occasion and used his interview time to make Kavanaugh’s case….
….The vote for Kavanaugh was 50-48—the narrowest margin for a Supreme Court Justice. Clarence Thomas held the previous record, 52-48….”
https://donsurber.substack.com/p/lindsey-graham-a-profile-in-courage
He also voted against the DEI Supreme Corrupt Court Justice Jackson!
No, Senator Lindsey Graham did not vote for Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation to the Supreme Court. While he had previously voted to confirm her to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, he cast a “no” vote on her Supreme Court nomination, marking the first time he voted against a Supreme Court nominee since entering the Senate in 2003.
Graham cited several reasons for his opposition, including her record of “judicial activism,” flawed sentencing methodology in child pornography cases, and a lack of a steady judicial philosophy. He also criticized her performance during confirmation hearings as an “evasive witness.” Despite his opposition, Jackson was confirmed by the Senate in a 53-47 vote, becoming the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court.
Could you name me three friends who have $3MILLION dollars; and maybe some offshore accounts??
YES.
I can give you four. Their initials are RL, PB, CP & LR.
A recently retired local Congressman, Brian Higgins (D-NY), did not get uber-wealthy while in office, either.
So IMO the unfounded accusation/implication of “MAYBE some offshore accounts” is premature w/o some evidence. What ever happened to the presumption of innocence, until proven guilty?
I was laughing too hard to answer you; seriously.
Still laughing.
I have two cousins that fit your financial criteria as well. IDK about “offshore accounts”, though. They married wealthy guys. However, you asked for friends.
Fake nursing schools (and CDL acquisitions), topics for another day, beyond Operation Nightengale of a few years ago…I came across this from our friends at TLD, granted its a Fox video on Rumble, but the numbers are staggering…worth the view time of a minute.
$1300-$4000 for a fake degree from India. How can that be affordable to someone from an impoverished caste? Or afford transportation from there to here?

Privileged, educated and impoverished castes alike. The India/Hindu elements of the subversions of America are more subtle and systemic than the Islamic ones. They are backed with globalist funding of multinational corporate expansions, and with private capital to buy land and fund development in strategic growth areas. They find ways to control school boards and local/county government.
There are situations with hospitals in Chicagoland…again. There have been many.
A few years ago, one ran off to Dubai…he was escorted back to America.
Yes, they gained expertise from years of experience fighting the British occupation..
A nursing school overseas has to be approved by US authorities. They even take the NCLEX. They will be interviewed and tested by American educators in their country before getting the work visas.
It’s not only in nursing, it’s doctors, AI, and business………fake takes the cake. AND gets to eat it too.
While Our children struggle to pay for college and real degrees.
God Help US
We really are a third world country.

Sept. ., 2025–Where’s The Bullet That Killed Charlie Kirk?–Emerald Robinson:
“Let’s begin with some obvious truths that too many conservative Trump supporters should remember: you should never trust the FBI. Why is that exactly? Because the FBI covered up the attempted assassination of President Trump at the Butler rally in Pennsylvania. That was 14 months ago.
So why would anyone believe them now?
The lesson of the Butler assassination attempt was obvious: the FBI was conducting a cover-up of the assassination disguised as an investigation.
There are key differences.
When the FBI wants to investigate a crime, it preserves the crime scene and it brings trained investigators. When the FBI wants to conduct a cover-up of a crime, it allows the crime scene to be destroyed or cleaned.
Right now, the UVU crime scene where Charlie Kirk was assassinated is apparently being cleared out and construction is already underway.” …….
The University President thought this would be a great time to remodel the Crime Scene with fresh concrete. Did I mention she’s not an educator but a Council on Foreign Relations Deep-Stater?
Oswald, Sirhan, Crooks. The use of Involved Fall Guys is well-established Deep State tradecraft. Even if it was Robinson’s rifle, I just don’t believe he acted alone.
The Government Riots, the Government Bombings, the Government Virus, the Government Vaccines, the Government Fraud, the Government Stolen Elections, the Government Treason, the Government Endless Wars and other Government Assassinations don’t help, either.
Furry Fall Guy is certainly guilty–but he’s not guilty ALONE.
And, this time, I don’t want to arrest Lee Harvey without arresting J. Edgar, Dulles and LBJ, too.

“And He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.”

Britons will be injected with EBOLA ‘within weeks’ in world-first vaccine trial – as growing outbreak kills 100 victims per week
https://www.dailymail.com/health/article-15973215/Britons-injected-EBOLA-weeks-world-vaccine-trial-growing-outbreak-kills-100-victims-week.html
THOSE 50 BRITONS MUST HAVE A DEATH WISH
From the link:
“The vaccine, manufactured by the Serum Institute of India, uses a harmless virus to deliver genetic material from the Bundibugyo strain into the body. ”
AND
“She said any risk would be communicated to volunteers, adding: ‘I want to stress that the Covid AstraZeneca vaccine was given to millions of people safely.’
Meanwhile, three other vaccines targeting the Bundibugyo strain are also in development.
One is being produced by Moderna using mRNA technology, while two others -developed by the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative and Public Health Vaccines in the United States – use methods that have proven effective against other Ebola strains, though they are slower to manufacture.”
IMHO…if Moderna is doing it, so is Pfizer.
Gee…what could go wrong…
This statement tells me everything I need to know.
Agree totally misleading!!! To millions of others it was severely injurious or even deadly! To me no vaccine is safe! The vaccines are more dangerous than the disease! JMO
I would call that Fake News. You don’t inject people with a deadly virus just to see if they will die.
You don’t, obvs. 😉
CBC Radio’s been full of Ebola horror stories lately and today had a long piece about the US Anthrax attacks to psyop us. They had a “pandemic expert” on telling us we need to start wearing masks and “social distancing” again.
Only slight hiccup there is that Ebola can’t be air transmitted. 🤔 One has to exchange bodily fluids. 🤮
Insanity! 🤣
Ya, they are priming us for the next pandemic. I guess they will need to inject a few people to
really get it going…just my jaded opinion, of course.
💯 🎯 CBC took a run at Hanta-fear a few weeks ago but it didn’t take hold.
TBH I thought the WEF-puppet Economist magazine’s annual predictive cover for this year was cryptically telling us the World Cup would be the launch venue for the next pandemic, a la Wuhan Military Games for Covid.
Hope I’m wrong!
Yes, I noticed the Hunta scare. I don’t think it was as effective as they hoped. Ebola will be on another level…been expecting it. Agree about World Cup being used…as a carrier or even more likely, as an excuse for a carrier.
💯 🎯
“Hunta” is my word of the day lolli, thank you!

Not sure if this will show up. I don’t have X. This was sent to me.
It’s about how the deep state planned to kill President Trump on the return
flight from Turkey. Looks like it was reported on Fox.(Laura Ingram).
Anyone see this?🤷🏻♀️

BREAKING: DEEP STATE DESPERATION EXPOSED! https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/svg/1f6a8.svg
They tried to KILL President Trump mid-flight.
On July 9, 2026, as Trump departed Turkey aboard the brand-new Qatari-donated Boeing 747-8 — his future Air Force One — the Deep State launched a cowardly cyber strike from Langley, Virginia. They targeted the plane’s electronic controls in a blatant assassination attempt.
But Trump — always ten steps ahead — switched to the older Air Force One at the last second. What the Fake News called a “routine security precaution” was actually a brilliant trap.
This was the beginning of the Great Purification.
Encrypted comms intercepted. Traitors scrambling. NYT journalists hit with emergency subpoenas because they had obituaries and “air disaster” stories pre-written and ready to publish.
They were waiting for the crash.
THEY. FAILED. AGAIN.
Trump just exposed the entire rat nest.
The storm is here. Justice is coming.
Not sure about this. President Trump did not depart Turkey in the new plane but had sent it ahead to UK. I’ve read it was do to not having anti missile on the new one.
I don’t know, either. But the article is saying that is why he did not take the new plane when
departing Turkey.
Reminds me too much of Q hopium.
We will see what happens with those NY Slimes reporters purposely endangering the President.
Yes, agree. It’s probably fake news. I was curious, though, and wanted to see if anyone else had seen this anywhere.
President Trump did ditch the new plane at the last minute for security issues. And with the reporters being charged,
I did wonder if there is any truth to it.
Probably the bit about the reporters having already drafted templates for air-disaster stories, or an obituary.
“Crime of the century.” Amen and Amen!!!
“And Ryan Cole in America, he is one of many,many others who said this is real. And once you get into messenger RNA technology that can be integrated randomly, that’s why it’s the stupidest thing to try to make a vaccine out of it, because it’s as smart as trying to herd cats. It is absolutely impossible and they should give up now…
“And the last thing I say, with everything we have learned, please ban all messenger RNA vaccines, because they are not vaccines, they are gene therapies. If we don’t, giving them to children could interfere with their genome for the rest of their lives…
This has been overlooked for too long! Thanks for getting this out there…..
Don’t understand why President Trump is/was so fond of Graham as he was so close to McCain and was there beside him through it all.
Some people do not even know that they have a wooden-nickel (in this case, a dossier )
and go about sharing the wooden-nickel – miss thinking
they that have something important.
And d c whispered amongst themselves, for years… ( a waste of public resource$ )
( but its a rumor, and unverifiable – except by the few that miss invented the rumor,
to try to miss influence public opinions… again …)
…maine platner (now former c-dem senator candidate ) is the recent recipient – whom just got a taste of some of that nefarious machinery…
( and that machination (which the media gives a free pass), does not make platner a good, or bad person )
imho
FYI I’m not trying to start any new conspiracy just reporting previously known facts!
President Trump on Truth Social:
“The Hormuz Strait is OPEN, and will remain OPEN, with or without Iran.
We are reinstating the THE IRANIAN BLOCKADE, so named because it is only stopping Iran’s ships or customers from entering or leaving.
All other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait.
The U.S.A. will be, from this point forward, known as “THE GUARDIAN OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT,” but as such, and as a matter of FAIRNESS, will be reimbursed, at the rate of 20% on all cargo shipped, for any and all costs necessary to do the job of providing safety and security to this very volatile section of the World. The process and formation will begin immediately.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Daniel L. Davis is a retired United States Army officer and an analyst of United States foreign policy. He was one of the earliest military officers to publicly criticize the War in Afghanistan.
Davis was disturbed by what he felt was a program of official deception being presented to the public on the success of the War in Afghanistan. In 2012, after returning to the United States, he sent a report on his observations to the Department of Defense Office of Inspector General. Unclassified versions of the report were copied to several members of the United States Congress and the New York Times.
In 2025, Davis was selected by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard for appointment as deputy director for mission integration. Gabbard withdrew her selection after criticism from hawkish Republican lawmakers due to Davis criticism of Israel. [who is actually running this country? – W]
