🚨 THEY SAID THE FBI DIRECTOR WAS ā€œMISSING IN ACTION.ā€ Then Kash Patel dropped THIS on the Senate. Watch the media bury it. Predecessors took 33 days off a year. Kash: 4 days this year. They used Reagan National like a personal lily pad — $3.5 MILLION of YOUR money. He killed that. Andrews and government fields only. Taxpayers off the hook.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! In a stunning admission, Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Michigan) announced that if the SAVE America Act becomes law — "It would be hard for ANY Democrat, in ANY state, to win ANY election." President Trump was just PROVEN CORRECT Democrats are aware of mass voter fraud at scale and ending non-citizen voting will force them to lose elections 🤯 Time is running low, mere WEEKS remain until it could not take effect for the 2026 midterms. Ram this through to stop the cheat!

Tulsi Gabbard didn’t just release 1,600 pages of documents on her last day in office. She exposed something far uglier: the intelligence community didn’t investigate the lab leak. They built a protective cocoon around Anthony Fauci and called it national security. They had the evidence early. A May 2020 report from Lawrence Livermore laid it out plainly ... all the conditions for an accidental release of a lab-modified coronavirus were already present at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Precursor viruses. Reverse genetics work. ACE2 receptor testing. Biosafety failures. It was all there. Instead of following that evidence, they let the man who approved the funding for that research steer the entire origins discussion across 18 intelligence agencies. Fauci didn’t just offer opinions. He shaped the narrative, suppressed dissent, and later lied to Congress about his involvement. And the agencies went along with it. Whistleblowers who tried to push back were retaliated against. The institutions that were supposed to protect the country chose to protect one well-connected bureaucrat instead. This wasn’t a mistake. It was a decision. Corporate media is pretending this never happened. They won’t even touch it. That silence tells you exactly whose side they were on. This is bigger than Fauci. This is proof that when the truth threatened powerful people inside the system, the system circled the wagons and buried the evidence. Tulsi just ripped the cocoon open. Now we’ll see who tries to sew it back shut. (article below)

From @grok: "Yes, the CCP Ran a Shadow Campaign—And It Just Installed NYC’s Next Mayor" "Beijing didn’t just watch. It rigged the information battlefield while its ground troops in Queens, Brooklyn, and Chinatown flipped 600,000 Chinese-American votes."

I lived for 10 years in Taiwan and Japan. Both would have deported me if I didn’t have a job. And they’d laugh me out trying to go on welfare. Zero benefits for immigrants —legal or no. It’s a privilege to come here, if you can’t hack it go home.
Any Welfare used by households… Native Born: 39% Naturalized Citizens: 52% Non-Citizens: 59% America has a major problem.

🚫 Today I Was Blocked From Covering Gov. Pritzker and Mayor Johnson's press conference - That’s Not Democracy. Here’s the raw video of Gov. JB Pritzker’s staff denying me media access to his press conference with Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson this afternoon — for no reason and with no explanation other than I wasn’t ā€œon the list.ā€ I’ve attended and questioned Gov. Pritzker before, and I’ve been a credentialed reporter in Chicago for more than a decade. This is a textbook First Amendment violation. The Governor’s staff even threatened to have me thrown out of the building by State Police. šŸš” And let’s be clear: this press conference was staged. It wasn’t just about condemning Trump’s Border Patrol deployment to Chicago — it was about Pritzker and Johnson surrounding themselves with friendly reporters who would stick to their talking points. Pritzker is planning a White House run, and he can’t have #ThatReporter asking tough questions. Silencing me is silencing the public. #FreePress #FirstAmendment #ThatReporter
For no reason and in violation of the First Amendment, @GovPritzker and @ChicagosMayor Brandon Johnson denied me press access to their press conference today about @realDonaldTrump's deployment of ICE agents in downtown Chicago on Sunday. Video to be posted soon, lawsuit to follow. Especially given the outrage that Gov. Pritzker expressed when @JimmyKimmelLive was taken off the air due to his false statements for a weekend, it's the height of hypocrisy. #thatreporter @FoxNews @FoxBusiness @nypost @AndrewKolvet @TuckerCarlson

In the most active months of 2024 (mid-Feb - mid-Nov), 13 Chicago wards had 70% of the 489 murders in the city. See below. Each bar is a block. These 13 wards had a murder rate of about 48 per 100k people, nearly 3X the rate for the city, already highest for large US cities.

But this press conference wasn’t only about taking illegal alien criminals off the streets. It was also about seizing the poison that fuels the cartels and injects cash into their criminal operations. Noem announced that her team had already taken a whopping 20 kilograms of fentanyl, which is over 44 pounds. Insane. ā€œI want you to look at the contraband that’s in front of me.ā€ On the table were large bags filled with the deadly fentanyl, cash that had been seized, and illegal guns. ā€œWe have 20 kilograms of fentanyl that’s in front of me on this table.ā€ She then explained what this could have done to Americans if left on the streets. ā€œThat’s enough to kill 10 million people.ā€ ā€œHere out of this office this was interdicted just days ago here in Illinois and because these federal officers have been on the streets picking up criminals and dangerous individuals, we were able to take this 20 kilograms of fentanyl off the streets and save over 10 million lives.ā€ Noem said that DHS and HSI are working alone, and elected officials in Chicago and the state of Illinois have gone out of their way NOT to assist them in making their city or state safe. ā€œUnfortunately, all of the politicians that have spoken out against their efforts, their will, their desire appears to be that they would like to have more of this on their streets.ā€ ā€œMore drugs out there for their kids and families to be victimized, more guns out there committing crimes. That’s not the work we do in ICE.ā€ ā€œThe work that we do is to protect people and make sure we remove these weapons and drugs off of our streets and hold those criminals accountable who would go forward and continue to use that to harm individuals.ā€

Did you know the DPT shot injured so many children that Big Pharma threatened to stop making vaccines? That’s how you lost the right to sue them. Japan had the same problem. But instead of protecting Pharma, they delayed the DPT shot until age 2, and what happened next was so profound, it was impossible to ignore. 🧵 THREAD

Wow! Since 2008 we're subsidizing all the banks?! And they mostly pay nothing on "interest-bearing" accounts!
70% of all bank profits now come from Fed handouts. It’s not a free market—it’s a rigged casino. And you’re covering the losses.

URGENT! Please share this everywhere! President Trump's nominee for DC US Attorney MUST BE CONFIRMED ASAP!!
Based on conversations I am hearing in DC, the blocking points for @USAEdMartin’s confirmation are currently 5 REPUBLICAN Senators: - Susan Collins @SenatorCollins - Thom Tillis @SenThomTillis - John Cornyn @JohnCornyn - Bill Cassidy @SenBillCassidy - Mitch McConnell @SenMcConnell This is President Trump’s nominee for DC’s Top Prosecutor. If these Senators delay Ed Martin’s confirmation for just 15 more days, the worst judge in the district, Judge Boasberg, will select DC’s prosecutor rather than the President we voted for. We need immediate action from these 5 Senators, public statements from them if there is some explanation we’re not being told or if this information is incorrect (in which case I will happily retract and update this post), and primaries for them if indeed they run out the clock with no public explanation and instead hand the DC justice system over to its most corrupted judge.

The heart of a lawsuit about fraudulent vaccine trials: "The government didn’t want to investigate Pfizer ... because digging deeper would conflict with its official narrative that the COVID shots are 'effective'.ā€
The most disturbing admission of all comes in the third point of the case. The court filing states: ā€œThe government further explained that discovery and litigation obligations associated with the case would place significant burdens on FDA, HHS, and the Department of Justice and that the government should not be required to bear such burdens on a case ā€˜inconsistent with its health policy.ā€™ā€ In plain English: the government didn’t want to investigate Pfizer, not because the fraud claims lacked merit, but because digging deeper would conflict with its official narrative that the COVID shots are ā€œeffective.ā€ That’s the health policy they’re clinging to. And they'd rather bury anything that threatens to expose flaws, fraud, or harm from these shots than face the fallout of their own actions.

Here’s what @IamBrookJackson witnessed firsthand. As regional director at Ventavia, the company running Pfizer’s vaccine trial sites, Jackson said the entire operation was riddled with serious violations. She saw falsified data, trial participants who were unblinded, staff who were poorly trained, and vaccines that were improperly stored. Worse, she claimed the company FAILED to follow up on adverse events, including serious, potentially life-threatening ones—which recklessly endangered patients and destroyed the integrity of the entire trial. ā€œWe were so inundated with the number of adverse events that we could not keep up,ā€ she said. Pfizer even called asking what the plan was to handle the flood of safety reports. She said patients weren’t even given full informed consent—her ā€œnumber one concern.ā€ Jackson reported these issues to Ventavia. When nothing changed, she went to the FDA. Six hours later, she was fired. The reason? ā€œI was not a good fit,ā€ she said. ā€œI was not a good fit for reporting fraudulent conduct in a clinical trial.ā€ Jackson worked at Ventavia for just 18 days but says that’s all it took to get a grasp of the fraud she witnessed.

Trump’s revolution at Justice long overdue I think the root of Marxism is the misbegotten, insidious, even demonic imagination that lack of some material good by certain individuals somehow confers virtue on them, or even justifies any extent of evil. jns.org/trumps-revolution-at…
