The Jim Jordan floor vote is going to end up being a public GOP exhibition in who supports unlimited Ukraine funding.  Jim Jordan has expressed opposition to more funding for Ukraine, and the professional Republican wing of neocons do not like that.

A great example surfaces today inside the change of position for one of the staunchest Ukraine advocates, Indiana representative Victoria Spartz.  However, what I find most interesting about her reversal is Spartz’s unwillingness to admit the reason.

Despite her political pretending, Representative Spartz primary allegiance is to her home country of Ukraine, not the United States.  It is disingenuous in the extreme how the media is reporting on her reversal without mentioning the one key element that drives her decision-making.

The deep state mask slipping continues in 2023 as the controlled Fox News punditry showcase their alignment with the neocon war agenda.   This one is another remarkable reveal.

Sean Hannity, the perpetual interrupter, totally loses his cool in an interview with Vivek Ramaswamy and starts defending the agenda of defense contractors.  It is a remarkable level of sunlight upon the controlled Fox News host who succumbed to the black-ops file involving his zipper problems (see Ainsley Earhardt).  Now divorced, and under substantial financial pressure, Murdoch et al have Hannity right where they want him.

Hannity attacks Ramaswamy for the candidate’s position on government contractors funding SuperPACS, then goes into a diatribe about how only deep state government defense and intelligence officials can manage our national political priorities.  Dropping the remnants of his mask, Hannity finishes the interview extolling the virtues of the military industrial complex, and saying only career politicians are qualified to be President.

On the positive side, the more these purchased second-rate losers attack each other, the better it is for the pragmatic MAGA coalition who appreciate optimal solutions.

Apparently, some people have forgotten that American citizens are in an abusive relationship with our government.  A government that has demonstrably lied repeatedly and used the official institutions of the U.S. intelligence apparatus to do so [See reference of 50 former intel officials claiming Biden laptop was Russian disinformation].

So, allow me to walk through the process of the story attributed most recently to House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Mike McCaul, as relayed to him by DNI Avril Haines, an Obama operative inside the Biden administration, and broadcast to media.

McCaul claims the US Intelligence Community know that Egypt warned Israel of the pending Hamas attack.  Everything about this is sketchy in the extreme.  Senior Egyptian Intelligence officials state, without qualification, that such a warning never happened {link}, and Bibi Netanyahu has said it was fake news {link}.  I believe President Fattah Abdel al-Sisi and Prime Minister Netanyahu – here’s why.

First, don’t forget the geopolitical motives to disparage and diminish Egypt after they recently joined the BRICS economic alliance.

Second, don’t forget that following Obama and Clinton’s ill-fated attempt to install a Muslim Brotherhood leader in Egypt, Mohammed Morsi, General al-Sisi was forced to stop the Islamist Spring in Egypt.  That put Sisi on the opposite side of Obama, and years of manipulative disparagement ensued.   However, Sisi put his commitment to eradicating extremism -like Hamas- into action, not mere words {GO DEEP}.

In 2014, Sisi began destroying Hamas tunnels into Gaza from the Sinai region of Egypt.  {link} This was not a small task, as it was discovered that one-third of all buildings in the region contained tunnels into Gaza that were being used by Hamas terrorists. {link}  At the time, we called them al-Qaeda and ISIS, but they are all various factions of the extremist sentiment espoused by the Muslim Brotherhood.  Sisi kicked the Brotherhood out of Egypt {link}.  They fled to Qatar.

In retaliation, in early 2015 Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood put a fatwah on al-Sisi and called for Jihad against Egypt {link}. Against the backdrop of the first border opening between Egypt’s northern Sinai and Gaza, and against the ongoing efforts by the al-Sisi led coalition to move toward peace between Arabs and Israelis, the extremists strike back in 2017 with a horrific terrorist attack against the Al Rawdah mosque in Bir al-Abed, west of El Arish, the main city in North Sinai. 235 people were killed and hundreds more wounded {link}

When President Donald Trump goes full wolverine, he doesn’t stop until the bones are bleaching in the sun. Oh my. This is a remarkable public evisceration of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for pulling out of a military operation at the last minute.

At his rally in West Palm Beach, former President Trump recounted how Israeli PM Benjamin “let us down” for not being part of the strike on Iranian general Qasem Soleimani, but then tried to “take credit” for the operation. WATCH:

Oh, I was going to share this last night…. but had to savor it and laugh all morning.

The insufferable Steve Cortes, the guy who put up such a noisy and indignant fuss when he joined the Ron DeSantis team, has just left (or been booted from) his position as spokesperson for the DeSantis Never Back Down superPAC.  Oh, the just desserts are too rich to savor at one sitting.

This guy burned every bridge and is now left to wander the political landscape as a nomad muttering to himself.

Please always remember.  CNN = State Dept.  WaPo = CIA.  NYT = DOJ/FBI/DNI. This constant will never change.

Today CNN is out with four reporter bylines on one story to push the official U.S. State Dept story that Iran had no idea Hamas was going to launch the attack against Israel. That’s the collective story, assembled by the people behind Joe Biden, and they are sticking to it.

Now, let’s cut through the pretending.  The State Dept is pushing the story the Biden team need them to, because the point of defending Iran is to maintain a friendly posture and dance with the devil.  The team behind Biden is hopeful that this approach will endear them to Iran so that Tehran will keep Hezbollah out of the fight.  It’s diplomatic pretending pushed on a global stage and managed by the PR firm of the State Dept through CNN.   That’s the ‘why’ of this story.

Now, read very carefully as to how it is constructed. You will see the couched terms and carefully edited propaganda.

CNN – The United States has collected specific intelligence that suggests senior Iranian government officials were caught by surprise by Saturday’s bloody attack on Israel by Hamas, according to multiple sources familiar with the intelligence.

The existence of the intelligence has cast doubt on the idea that Iran was directly involved in the planning, resourcing or approving of the operation, sources said.

The sources stressed that the US intelligence community is not ready to reach a full conclusion about whether Tehran was directly involved in the run-up to the attack. They continue to look for evidence of Iranian involvement, which caught both Israel and the United States by surprise.

Republicans hate their base voters.  If the broader Republican electorate knew the internecine nature of how the Republican politicians in DC operate, they would never vote for another Republican ever.

It’s all a system of conniving and positioning for a cushy committee assignment, indulgences from the lobbyist control apparatus, office locations and Machiavellian influence for the best junkets and largest leadership PAC deposits.  That’s the truth, the non-pretending truth about the system at work behind the GOPe blind vote.  It has nothing to do with principle centered leadership, and everything to do with self-indulgences and person affluence.

Steve Scalise is worse than Kevin McCarthy when it comes to supporting Democrats, way worse.  Representative Steve Scalise (U-DC) will use sell your house via civil forfeiture and send that money to Zelenskyy [while deducting his indulgence fees of course].

WASHINGTON – No. 2 House Republican Steve Scalise won the GOP nomination for speaker, paving the way for a floor vote to make the election official.

Republicans held a secret closed-door ballot Wednesday morning after days of drama and infighting. Scalise, who is battling blood cancer, beat out House Judiciary Chairman and Trump ally Jim Jordan in a 113-99 vote.

The Biden administration has one goal in relation to supporting Israel, keep Hezbollah from entering the conflict.

Hamas has small rockets and inbred jihadi terrorists.  Hezbollah has precision missiles built up over time, more money, sophisticated targeting systems and a more disciplined approach.  Israel can enter Gaza and begin operations; it will not be easy at all, but it is possible.  However, if Hezbollah launches from the North, the U.S. will need to intervene on behalf of Israel.

That is the reason we keep seeing these statements:

[CentCom Source Link]

Hezbollah will not engage Israel without direct approval from Tehran, Iran.  Currently Iran views the Biden administration as a useful ally.

From the perspective of Iran, they have an interesting decision.  Keep the happy geopolitical leverage they have with the Biden administration or put the Biden administration into a corner by activating their Hezbollah terrorists.

I don’t think Iran will approve Hezbollah for two reasons. First, because they will want to maintain the Joe Biden team’s usefulness for them.  Second, I doubt even Hezbollah realized how much success Hamas would have in the 10/7 attack.

Yes, there are massive geopolitical interests at stake in the Hamas attack against Israel. Yes, there are layers and layers of massive multinational corporate investments into the process of energy control, capture and change that is driven by competing interests. Yes, those trillions at stake are playing out in the world from Iran to Israel, to Ukraine, to Russia, to Azerbaijan, to Turkey, to Africa, and beyond. {Go Deep}

Yes, all of the political and state actors are playing a role and using their military resources as part of the positioning process. China, Russia, Iran, The United States, Europe, NATO, etc, all positioning and in the background trillions upon trillions being discussed and fought for. Yes, the ultimate high stakes public-private partnerships are leveraging everything right now…..

… But trust me, RIGHT NOW, that’s not where our immediate focus should be!

We need to narrow our viewpoints to a very specific field of vectors, protecting your family.

As all of this geopolitical crisis is playing out on the global stage, there are domestic interests who are in alignment with the global crisis. Their focus is the fundamental change and the upheaval of the globe in conflict as a gateway for those interests to advance. Right here, at home, literally coming to your neighborhood, is where your focus should be, because in the final analysis it is all connected.

Do not look so easily at the global horizon that you cannot see the crisis unfolding on our doorstep.

According to multiple media outlets, which means the White House is staying out in front of this story, Joe Biden was interviewed by Special Counsel Robert Hur (pictured below left) about the classified documents located in his Delaware home, beach house and office in Pennsylvania.  The documents stem from the time when Joe Biden was a senator and vice-president.

WASHINGTON DC – President Joe Biden has been interviewed by the special counsel team investigating how classified documents from his time as vice president ended up at his office and home, the White House said Monday night.

The interview was conducted at the White House on Sunday and Monday and was done voluntarily, the administration added.

“As we have said from the beginning, the President and the White House are cooperating with this investigation, and as it has been appropriate, we have provided relevant updates publicly, being as transparent as we can consistent with protecting and preserving the integrity of the investigation,” Ian Sams, spokesperson for the White House, said in a statement.
