Boy howdy, this judicial activism is reaching new heights. Federal judges in New Jersey invoked a rarely used judiciary power to remove interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba, installing her top assistant as the state’s top prosecutor. However, hours later the Trump administration responded by removing Habba’s deputy.

This is where Majority Leader John Thune can come into play and push for a faster track confirmation of Habba through the senate.

POLITICO – Federal judges declined to keep President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney as New Jersey’s top federal prosecutor, exercising an arcane statute to rebuff the Trump administration’s wishes.

New Jersey district court judges voted to not let interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba stay on the job after her 120-day interim term expires, instead picking prosecutor Desiree Leigh Grace, according to a court order posted to the judiciary’s website.

I’ll repeat it as much as needed, until it sinks in.

The U.S-Canada trade deal status is simply a no-brainer. President Trump will answer questions about Canada and tariffs, he’ll put people into seats to discuss trade with the Canadian delegation, and he’ll give every outward appearance of being favorable to Prime Minister Mark Carney…. BUT…

In the background, Trump is simply waiting for the USMCA timeline to trigger a renegotiation. President Donald Trump is ambivalent to the trade partnership with Canada. This moot-status reality is why there’s no substantive engagement.

‘No deal’ -until USMCA redo- is a win for President Trump.

For some bizarre reason that I simply cannot fathom, almost every Canadian politician seems entirely oblivious to this reality. Instead, Canadian Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc and Mark Carney’s chief-of-staff, Marc-André Blanchard are once again coming to DC to ride their bicycles in slow circles at the bottom of the White House driveway while staring in the windows.

An article in Politico notes the Canadian premiers are now accepting the August 1st deadline will pass without any agreement, and the 35% reciprocal tariffs on non-USMCA products (meaning a lot of stuff) is going to trigger.

Literally, everything from Canada that has a non-USMCA component is going to be tariffed. Think about all the stuff from China, Asia (writ large) and Europe that Canada assembles for finished goods. All of that stuff will be subject to the tariffs.

Following an oval office meeting and later discussion with Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos, President Trump announced a trade agreement has been reached.

President Ferdinand Marcos, of the Philippines, is just leaving the White House, with all of his many Representatives. It was a beautiful visit, and we concluded our Trade Deal, whereby The Philippines is going OPEN MARKET with the United States, and ZERO Tariffs. The Philippines will pay a 19% Tariff. In addition, we will work together Militarily. It was a Great Honor to be with the President. He is Highly Respected in his Country, as he should be. He is also a very good, and tough, negotiator. We extend our warmest regards to the wonderful people of The Philippines! (link)

Additionally, the White House has announced a trade agreement with Indonesia for a similar 19% tariff rate.

Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, responds to the deflection and denial of weaponized government and intelligence agencies by former President Barack Obama.

As noted in the comments by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, “Led by President Obama, there was an effort to create a document that would serve as a foundation for what would be a years-long coup against President Trump.”

🚨 BREAKING: Tulsi Gabbard CALLS OUT Barack Obama for attempting to DEFLECT blame for the Russiagate Hoax

Obama ORDERED his cronies to use ALREADY DEBUNKED “intelligence” to push the Russia narrative. That is a FACT!… pic.twitter.com/Pebss6LF5a

While it is unlikely any of the evidence currently in the record will lead to accountability upon President Obama himself, there is much easier legal exposure underneath him amid the underlings that carried out the operation.

Susan Rice is first and foremost at risk along with former White House Counsel Katheryn Ruemmler.  Interestingly, Ruemmler became Susan Rice’s personal attorney after the Obama administration ended.   Both Rice and Ruemmler are on record denying knowledge of the FBI investigation of President Trump.

According to the newly declassified and released documents, and according to congressional testimony by FBI Director James Comey on March 20, 2017, both Rice and Ruemmler lied about their knowledge.

Former President Barack Obama has released a statement following both DNI Tulsi Gabbard and President Trump outlining the Obama administration’s conspiracy operation to target Donald Trump in 2016 and beyond.

Obama’s office said in a statement, “Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.”

“Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes. These findings were affirmed in a 2020 report by the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, led by then-Chairman Marco Rubio.” (link)

Speaking about the information released last week by Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, President Trump concurs with the big picture overview that President Obama was involved and responsible for the targeting of him during the 2016 election and beyond.  WATCH:

Beyond the targeting by the Obama administration, what President Trump says about the 2020 election is entirely accurate. One of the primary reasons CTH and those voices who are deep weeds researchers were targeted for removal by DHS using Big Tech, was entirely to stop the information about the rigged and fraudulent 2020 election.

Hundreds of key voices silenced, deplatformed, removed from visibility and forced to reorganize under different platform and systems.  Thousands of patriotic Americans were black-listed and had their social media accounts removed during the operation.

DHS was directly involved with Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Google and many others during this unprecedented information control operation.   I reemphasize this now, because CTH is going to be talking about this very soon in detail, because all indications are there’s another operation being planned for 2028. But that’s for another day.

In 2018, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau relied heavily on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for assistance when the U.S. and Mexico constructed the majority of the USMCA trade pact.  Today, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney takes the same approach.

Tulsi Gabbard announces the release of 230,000 files related to the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Ironically, a Republican administration is detailing the events of how a Democrat administration targeted one of the most beloved Democrat legacy names.

“Today, after nearly 60 years of questions surrounding the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we are releasing 230,000 MLK assassination files, available now at http://archives.gov/mlk. The documents include details about the FBI’s investigation into the assassination of MLK, discussion of potential leads, internal FBI memos detailing the progress of the case, information about James Earl Ray’s former cellmate who stated he discussed with Ray an alleged assassination plot, and more.

Thanks to President Donald Trump’s leadership, Executive Order 14176 resulted in three, unprecedented interagency efforts to identify, digitize, declassify and release files related to the federal government’s investigations into the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and Dr. King.” ~ DNI Tulsi Gabbard
