The original indictment carried 17 counts against him.  Today, John Bolton has pleaded guilty to one felony of willfully retaining classified information.  The plea agreement includes a max term of 5 years prison, $2.25 million fine and forfeiture of his federal pension.

U.S. Attorney Kelly O. Hayes made the announcement saying: “John Robert Bolton II plead guilty in federal court to the unlawful retention of national defense information…Mr. Bolton faces a maximum sentence of up to five years in prison followed by a term of up to three years of supervised release. He will also pay a fine of $2.25 million and will forfeit his pension.”

.

Apparently, the fine is the income Bolton received from the book he authored using the classified information.

According to Politico the single charge plea “is punishable by up to 10 years in prison, but under the terms of the deal, Bolton, 77, can withdraw his plea and go to trial if Chuang decides a sentence of more than five years is warranted.”

This is a very unusual election year.  This year, more than any other election year, the Democrats have two major weapons they can deploy to crush the Republican party in every election:

First, give the Washington DC Republicans everything they want.

Second, be completely silent about it, and control their crazy.

Again, this is a weird election year; I’ll explain.

If the Communists and Progressives, together with all the various subsects under the tent of ‘Democrats’ can have enough self-discipline to follow this guide – they will crush almost every republican candidate and win every key race.  It will be the biggest electoral wipeout since 2010, but they also have to be absolutely silent over the next several months.

If the Communists and Progressives can put their crazy into a box for a few months, they will defeat their opposition.  Democrats need to take a long summer vacation, stay completely silent, avoid anything political and surface again in late October.  That’s it. That’s all they need to do.  They can put every nickel of donations and fundraising in the bank and exit the 2026 midterms with billions in saved funds – But they’ve got to hide their crazy; I mean really hide it.

The professional Republican Party in Washington DC is completely disconnected from the American voter, and more importantly from their base of support.  This creates a very unusual dynamic.  First, let me explain what Republican priorities the Democrats need to support:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Hopefully, this will speed up the process to remove millions of migrants who were previously shielded by “Temporary Protected Status.” {Ruling Here}

In a 6-3 decision Thursday, the Supreme Court said the administration can strip temporary protected status (TPS) from migrants who arrived from Islamist Syria and the ‘sh!thole‘ nation of Haiti.

Given the ridiculous way Obama and Biden defined crisis, the ruling appears to have removed legal obstacles blocking Trump and Rubio from ending the temporary protected status for immigrants from 13 countries, including Venezuela, Honduras and Afghanistan.  Get rid of all of them.  Illegal migrants do not have constitutional protection.

As noted by the Supreme Court, there is no valid claim of discrimination that applies to the case because, well, quite simply, the Trump administration appears to be against every TPS designation that expires regardless of the nationality.

Due to migrant crime, a rape crisis and government fear, the movie ‘Citizen Vigilante‘, written and directed by Ewe Boll, has been banned in the U.K and Germany.

Other European countries are limiting the film’s distribution due to cultural concerns and recent events where national patriots are beginning to push back against migrant’s entering their country with the expressed intention to harm and destroy.

The need for control is a reaction to fear.  European government’s fear this movie.  That said, in order to make it available to audiences behind the EU censorship wall, the makers of Citizen Vigilante have released it on the X-platform, and it is being promoted by Elon Musk himself.

I am going to try to embed the video below (not sure if it will work). It is available to watch until 10:00am on June 27.

In this video, DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin faces down the lies and manipulation of far-left representative Rosa DeLauro (D-CT).  It’s likely that most of the attention is focused on DeLauro, but it’s actually House Sub-Committee Chairman Mark Amodei (U-NV) who becomes unhinged at the pushback from Secretary Mullin.

Nevada Republican Mark Amodei, drops all pretenses of representing principle-centered government, and continues to target a very righteous Mullin.

Secretary Mullin was not going to allow leftists in the subcommittee to lie about the efforts of DHS, Border Patrol and ICE agents in the protection of the children victimized by the Obama-Biden open border policies.  However, Republican Amodei could not restrain himself from defending the open border, child trafficking and child rape that Mullin was angry about.

Mark Amodei from Nevada needs a primary challenge and removal from office.  WATCH:
