Former Foreign Affairs Congressman Claims: Gaza Pier will be used to Export Palestinians to US & Canada By Benjamin Wetmore
Apr. 25, 2024 4:20 pm – Part of the $9 billion in relief being sent to the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip, claims a former Congressman who sat for years on the Foreign Affairs committee, is secret funding for massive Palestinian resettlement in America and Canada.
Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) noted online that the billions being sent to Gaza are suspicious in that the funds seem disconnected from the reality of a true humanitarian mission. The funds are legally worded in such a way as to give Biden and his team the ability to do whatever they want with the money.
Fact Check: No, The Gateway Pundit is Not Losing Its Audience — We Continue to be One of the MOST VISITED News Sites in America Today By Jim Hoft
Apr. 25, 2024 12:40 pm – Yesterday, the news of the Gateway Pundit’s bankruptcy filing was released to the public.
As outlined in yesterday’s statement, this decision was made for business reasons. However, for our dedicated readers and trusted staff, there are no planned changes. We remain committed to delivering the same high-quality daily news and journalism to America today.
The mainstream media began reporting this news in a feverish way with glee and half-truths. They all had their erroneous spin on the filing. They were misunderstanding what was going on, and simply speculating as to what our motives were, what the facts were, and why it was happening.
One of the lies they started repeating in their coverage was that the traffic for the Gateway Pundit has gone down or plummeted.
In many reports they tried to claim that our traffic has gone down 62% since 2020, an outright lie. The Gateway Pundit is completely transparent about our site traffic. We link to it on every page, it’s a blue button at the bottom right of every page labelled “TGP Stats”, and it’s through a service called StatCounter.com.
The art and science of measuring website traffic is not precise, but across every reliable system it shows the same thing: our Gateway Pundit traffic is substantially higher than in 2020. Here’s what the month-to-month 2020-2024 data shows, and as you can see it does NOT show a decline in either site traffic or in unique visits to the site:
Police Officers Show No Mercy as They Break Up Illegal Protest Held by Unruly Anti-Israel and Anti-Cop Protesters at Emory University in Atlanta (VIDEOS) By Cullen Linebarger
Apr. 25, 2024 2:00 pm – Atlanta police officers showed no mercy Thursday as they laid down the law against unruly anti-Israel and anti-cop protesters at Emory University.
As Fox 5 Atlanta reported, several dozen agitators illegally set up a “Gaza Solidarity Encampment” on the lawn of the school and held signs.
FOX 5 Atlanta’s Billy Heath III noted that the protesters were approached by police, who gave them a minute to disperse, or they would be arrested for trespassing.
The students refused to comply with the cops’ demands and ended up paying a heavy price as a result.
Video footage from the protest shows police officers getting physical with the spoiled brats after allegedly being attacked. the police reportedly had to resort to firing rubber bullets and spraying tear gas to restore order.
You can hear what sounds like rubber bullets in the clip below while some protesters scream, “Let them go!” Many protesters are also seen being zip-tied and marched away.
One protester is seen being tased as he tries to move while under arrest. https://twitter.com/i/status/1783537513996472536
Atlanta News First’s Patrick Quinn reported witnessing at least 15 agitators being detained.

Fatah TV anchor accuses Hamas of killing aid workers, stealing food and water, manufacturing Gaza food crisis BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS
APR 24, 2024 11:00 AM – The Palestinian Authority has been tactically distancing itself from Iran, because Iran is a key supporter of Hamas, and the latter is the Palestinian Authority’s foremost rival.
The rivalry is becoming more bitter. Awdah TV is run by Mahmoud Abbas’ Fatah movement, and a Fatah anchor has now accused Hamas of what Israel has been saying: that “Hamas is responsible for turmoil connected to distribution of the humanitarian aid sent into Gaza.” The “turmoil” references serious offenses such as attacks upon and murder of aid workers, and stealing food and water for itself.
The Jerusalem Post also reported about Hamas manufacturing a food crisis in Gaza.
But how many UN leaders are paying attention, or even care, for that matter? Israel is the obsession of antisemites everywhere.
“Fatah: Hamas kills aid workers and steals food for itself,” by Ephraim D. Tepler and Itamar Marcus, Palestinian Media Watch, April 21, 2024:
- Fatah TV anchor: Hamas attacked and killed aid workers; it has persecuted them since the start of the war
In an incredible and rare admission, Fatah has corroborated what Israel has been saying all along: that Hamas is responsible for turmoil connected to distribution of the humanitarian aid sent into Gaza. A Fatah TV anchor reported that throughout the war, Hamas has been committing what is essentially a triple crime—it has attacked and killed aid workers in order to control aid distribution, stolen the food and water for itself, and caused food prices to skyrocket….
Egypt: Muslims attack Christian homes following rumors of planned church construction BY ROBERT SPENCER
APR 24, 2024 3:30 PM – Islamic law forbids the construction of new churches. Christians are “forbidden to ring church bells or display crosses, recite the Torah or Evangel aloud, or make public display of their funerals and feastdays, and are forbidden to build new churches” – Reliance of the Traveller o.11.5 (6,7)
“Egypt: Christian homes attacked following rumours of planned church construction,” Independent Catholic News, April 24, 2024:
Extremists attacked the Christian community in Al-Fawakher village in Minya Province, Upper Egypt, following rumours that they were planning to build a church.
Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) sources report that several homes and properties belonging to Christians in the village were destroyed on 23 April, and that local police and firefighters, led by the deputy governor and the head of the police department in Minya, acted quickly to contain the situation.
The police have launched an operation seeking to arrest the instigators of the violence, including those who spread rumours online about plans to construct a church….
In a separate development, the Egyptian government issued a memorandum designating Sunday 5 and Monday 6 May as bank holidays to celebrate Labour Day, which falls on 1 May. The memorandum has sparked outrage amongst the Coptic Orthodox community for ignoring Orthodox Easter Sunday, which falls on 5 May.
Coptic activists suggested to CSW that the move may be intended to appease Egypt’s Salafi Muslim community, who consider recognising Easter to be sinful, as it defies the mainstream Islamic doctrine which denies Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection.
Vast Majority of Terrorism Supporters on US Campuses are NOT American Students By Pamela Geller
April 24, 2024 – Why aren’t terror students punished for their despicable actions? And who benefits from all this?
“It’s not just tuition money that schools are milking. Foreign governments also write big checks to ensure that their students—and their politics—are given red-carpet treatment at big-name universities. According to the National Association of Scholars, since 2001 Qatar has given around $5 billion to American universities, more than any other foreign government. Between 2014 and 2019, American colleges and universities received $2.7 billion in Qatari funding without any public acknowledgment of the source of those funds. Given that Qatar hosts the leadership of Hamas, one can see how cracking down on Hamas-sympathizing students might seem like a bad idea for university presidents who cash Qatari checks.”

Why America’s Richest Universities Are Protecting Hate-Filled Foreign Students By Tony Badran
Accommodating overseas elites by tolerating antisemitism on U.S. campuses is part of a scheme to turn loss-leader DEI categories into profit centers
January 30, 2024 (Tablet Magazine) – Five weeks after Rutgers University suspended the New Brunswick campus chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) on Dec. 11 for violating several university policies, the school reversed its decision and reinstated the pro-Hamas group. In celebration, SJP members filmed a video in the classic Palestinian terrorist style: faces covered in kaffiyehs, reading a communique which, following a diatribe against the Zionists, made a list of demands that the school must meet if it wished to wipe the stain of its complicity in genocide.
All the Tents, Signs, Keffiyehs Are the Same: America’s Worst Enemies Funding America’s Ruin [VIDEOS] By Pamela Geller
April 24, 2024 – The opaque empire is behind the Democrat Party and their dark money slash fund foundations who support and fund the Pro-Hamas
There’s something odd about those campus tent encampments. Almost all the tents are identical – same design, same size, same fresh-out-of-the-box appearance.
Which suggests that rather than an organic process, whereby students would bring a variety of individual tents, someone or some organization has supplied them and organized the event.
I think it would be instructive if we can determine who that someone is. As IF we don’t know it is most likely Nazi/Communist collaborator George Soros.
Because rather than spontaneous demonstrations, these are choreographed events by hidden actors – and the students, sincere though they may be, are merely manipulated props. (comment – useful idiots)
Student Protester at NYU Appears Unaware Why She is Even There – Turns to Question Friend (VIDEO) By Mike Lachance
Apr. 24, 2024 9:00 pm – A video that has gone viral on social media shows a student protester at New York University who seems confused about why she is even there.
As often happens in a moment like this, young progressives will flock to a protest or cause without understanding all of the details. They just know that their friends on the left are doing it and therefore it must be a good cause.
This is so telling about this entire movement.
Newsweek reports:
Woman’s Reason for Joining Pro-Palestinian Protest Goes Viral
A woman’s reasoning for joining a pro-Palestinian protest at New York University (NYU) has gone viral on social media this week.
On Wednesday, former New York City Mayor and lawyer to former President Donald Trump, Rudy Giuliani shared a video on X, formerly Twitter, showcasing an interview with a pro-Palestinian protester.
In the video, the individual is asked about the goal of protesters at NYU, to which the person responded, “I think the goal is showing our support for Palestine and demanding that NYU stops.”
“I honestly don’t know all of what NYU is doing … I really don’t know,” the individual says.
As the video continues, the individual is seen speaking to another fellow protester and asking if she is aware of why they are protesting.
“I wish I was more educated,” the second protester is heard saying.
Question: Where are the parents of all these students? Aren’t they embarrassed?

Meadows, Giuliani and other former Trump aides indicted in Arizona 2020 election probe By Misty Severi
Eleven other Arizona Republicans have also been indicted on the felony charges.
April 24, 2024 8:17pm – An Arizona grand jury on Wednesday indicted former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, and five other former aides to former President Donald Trump on felony charges related to alleged efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
Eleven Arizona Republicans have also been indicted on the felony charges, along with former Trump attorneys John Eastman, Jenna Ellis, and Christina Bobb, according to the Washington Post.
Trump was also listed as an unindicted co-conspirator, Politico reported. The names of the seven Trump allies were redacted on the indictment, but descriptions of them have made it clear who they were. The charges include allegations of conspiracy, fraud and forgery.
“Defendants and unindicted coconspirators schemed to prevent the lawful transfer of the presidency to keep Unindicted Coconspirator 1 in office against the will of Arizona’s voters,” the 58-page indictment states.
The charges mark the end of Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes’s year long investigation into the Trump campaign’s alleged efforts to award the state’s electoral votes to Trump instead of Biden. The president won the state by 10,457 votes in 2020.
“We conducted a thorough and professional investigation over the past 13 months into the fake electors scheme in our state,” Mayes said in a video announcing the charges. “I understand for some of you today didn’t come fast enough. And I know I’ll be criticized by others for conducting this investigation at all. But as I’ve stated before, and we’ll say here again, today, I will not allow American democracy to be undermined.”
The indictment makes Arizona the fourth state to seek criminal charges over the Trump campaign’s alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Michigan, Georgia, and Nevada are also seeking charges for people who tried to form an alternate slate of electors.
Big Apple Brawl: Weapon-Wielding Migrants Beat the Tar Out of Each Other in Broad Daylight on the New York Streets (VIDEOS) By Cullen Linebarger
Apr. 24, 2024 6:40 pm – Video footage captured the moment several migrants in New York City beat the tar out of each other earlier this week in broad daylight in Midtown.
The New York Post reported that over a dozen so-called asylum seekers faced off Sunday afternoon outside The Row Hotel on Eighth Avenue. An X user captured two separate brawl videos and posted them on his account.
The user who captured the videos identified them as Venezuelans, but this has not been confirmed.
The video opens with one migrant getting hit from behind with what appears to be a drink. They then start circling each other with two swinging their bats for several seconds.
The first part of the footage concludes with one of the fighters getting dragged to the ground and pounded one by three other migrants.
Things Turn Ugly at USC as Pro-Hamas Protestors Face Off with Campus Police – Outside Forces Infiltrated to Kickstart Riot (VIDEOS) By Cristina Laila
Apr. 24, 2024 6:00 pm – Violent, pro-Hamas protests erupted at universities across the US on Wednesday after Columbia University was shut down and forced to go online due to pro-Palestinian riots.
Chaos erupted at the University of Southern California (USC) campus on Wednesday as pro-Hamas protestors tried to set up an encampment.
According to ABC 7, outside forces infiltrated to kickstart the riot at USC.

According to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin, USC said it is closing the campus gates and restricting unauthorized visitors from entering after many of the pro-Hamas protestors do not appear to be affiliated with USC.
CBS News reported:
A Pro-Palestinian protest at University of Southern California’s Alumni Park that started Wednesday morning grew in size and intensity by the afternoon after campus police confronted the crowd and ordered the dismantling of the encampment.
Tensions grew after officers forced the protesters to take down their tents and a protester was detained.
The encampment went up at the park Wednesday morning, similar to other pro-Palestinian encampments that have been part of other college campuses across the nation.
The group issued a list of demands including university divestment from any organizations that “profit from Israeli apartheid, genocide and occupation in Palestine.”
Campus Department of Public Safety officers visited the encampment, instructed students not to hang signs, flags or other materials from trees and posts in the park, and warned them not to use megaphones.

DEBUNKED! Palestinians Caught Red-Handed Blaming Their Own Mass Grave on Israel (VIDEO)
Apr. 24, 2024 3:40 pm – el of digging a mass grave to bury the bodies of dead Palestinians. It’s part of the “big lie” progressive Democrats are pushing that Israel is committing genocide, and it’s just been debunked.
Here are some of the reports accusing Israel:
Al Jazeera: Uncovering of mass grave at Gaza’s Nasser Hospital: What you need to know
CNN: UN demands investigation after mass graves found at Gaza hospitals raided by Israel
Reuters: UN rights chief ‘horrified’ by mass grave reports at Gaza hospitals
Unfortunately for the leftist/Islamist narrative, it’s all fake news.
X account @GeoConfirmed has posted images and video that irrefutably prove the grave was the work of Palestinians themselves!
“Palestinians are exhuming bodies from the grounds of the Nasser Medical Complex hospital complex in Khan Younis, Gaza.”
“This is occurring at the same location where mass graves were dug and burial ceremonies had taken place by Palestinians in recent months. (Proof in this thread)”
Recapping: In February, Hamas created this mass grave and used it for a propaganda narrative about evil Jews not letting Jihadis receive a proper burial.
Now, just 2 months later, Hamas and their lapdog pals in the media are using the SAME grave to blame Jews for genocide.
If Israel was committing “genocide,” would Gazans need to fake mass graves?
A Message from The Gateway Pundit Founder Jim Hoft to Our Readers By Jim Hoft
A message from our Founder:
Apr. 24, 2024 12:35 pm – TGP Communications, the parent company of The Gateway Pundit, recently made the decision to seek protection under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the Southern District of Florida as a result of the progressive liberal lawfare attacks against our media outlet.
This is not an admission of fault or culpability. This is a common tool for reorganization and to consolidate litigation when attacks are coming from all sides. It allows TGP to consolidate this lawfare in one court for ultimate resolution.
Despite the radical left’s efforts to silence The Gateway Pundit through censorship, de-platforming, de-banking, cut-off from advertisers, and other financial strategies, we will not be deterred from our mission of remaining fearless and being one of the most trusted independent media outlets in America today. We do not expect that to change.

Illegal Alien From Mexico Breaks Into Michigan Home, Sexually Assaults Two Girls Under the Age of 13 By Cristina Laila
Joe Biden’s America.
Apr. 24, 2024 12:00 pm – An illegal alien from Mexico broke into a Michigan home and sexually assaulted two girls under the age of 13.
According to police, 25-year-old Miguel Hernandez-Ruiz broke into a mobile home near Sturgis and sexually assaulted two sisters.
Miguel Hernandez-Ruiz threatened to kill the girls if they tried to scream. He used his hands to sexually assault the girls and exposed himself, according to court documents, Fox 17 reported.
He was hit with multiple charges including first-degree criminal sexual conduct involving a child under the age of 13 and home invasion, Fox 17 reported.
The sexual assault happened on March 20. Police finally tracked down Hernandez Ruiz in Fort Wayne, Indiana and arrested him earlier this month. He was arraigned last Friday.
Fox 17 reported:
Miguel Hernandez-Ruiz was arraigned Friday, April 19 on multiple charges including first-degree criminal sexual conduct involving a child under the age of 13 and home invasion.
Court documents obtained by FOX 17 show that the two girls told investigators the man held them in their rooms at the Sweet Lake Mobile Home Park off US-12 in the early morning hours of March 20.
The sisters, who are both under the age of 13, say the man threatened to kill them if they tried to scream or escape. The girls claim he used his hands to sexually assault them while exposing himself.
An evaluation by trained medical staff revealed evidence of sexual assault on both girls’ bodies.
After days of investigating, family and detectives were able to establish that Hernandez-Ruiz had visited the home roughly a month before the assault. Surveillance video showed a vehicle he was known to drive was the only one captured entering and leaving the neighborhood around the time of the home invasio
Apr. 24, 2024 10:15 am – The attorneys representing the corrupt DA in New York, Alvin Bragg, in their case against President Trump, have made a serious error in their case. President Trump’s attorneys must move to dismiss.
DA Bragg’s case is in serious trouble. The gang behind the prosecution of President Trump made a serious error that should lead President Trump’s team to move to dismiss.
Prosecutors in New York have revealed what the other crime is that Donald Trump was allegedly trying to conceal when he was falsifying business records and they claim it was to unlawfully promote his candidacy. The fatal error is that the NY Statute they cite only applies to elections within the State of New York and not Federal Elections!
Trump was running for the federal office of President of the United States and not a State Office and therefore the premise of what the prosecution is trying to prove as the second crime used to get around the statute of limitations issue and to elevate this business records case to a felony must fail!
Prosecutors also cannot use a federal law as the second crime and additionally, the FEC, Federal Election Commission, declined on two occasions to prosecute the claim against Trump that the alleged hush money payment was in fact a federal violation.
In this case, Bragg and Colangelo, in an exercise of their legal analysis of the law maintain that Trump, Cohen, and Pecker conspired to get Trump elected to President of the United States. This is the basis for the elevation of charges.
This is enough to end the case but that’s not all.
The case refers to accounting entries “made” by President Trump (which is lunacy) or entries President Trump forced others to make. But these entries were made in 2017. So how could President Trump possibly impact the 2016 election with accounting entries that were made (clearly not by the President but by some entry-level accountant in his multi-billion dollar organization) in 2017?
On top of that, even far-left radical liberals are shaking their heads at this case and the evidence used to “get Trump”.
Trump, who faces 34 counts of falsifying business records in connection to payments made to porn actress Stormy Daniels before the 2016 election, was discussed on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” where legal analyst Lisa Rubin presented a skeptical view of the prosecution’s case.
“The big takeaway is that this is a crime about falsification of business records, and yet, what the government seems to have the most evidence of is the underlying conspiracy,” Rubin explained on the show. She highlighted a lack of direct evidence linking Trump to the specific crimes charged: “What’s still unknown to me is how they’re going to prove Donald Trump’s own involvement in the falsification of the business records.”
President Trump handed over his companies to his sons before his inauguration in January 2017. The accounting entries in question were made after the handover occurred.
President Trump didn’t make any entries because no CEO of any multi-billion dollar company makes entries to the financials.
The accounting discussion in this case doesn’t make sense to anyone who’s ever worked in a large financial reporting operation.

Columbia President’s on 9/11 Attacks: ‘Terrorism is a Form of Protesting’ By Pamela Geller
April 23, 2024 – Who hired her? Why hasn’t she been fired?
The leftist/islamic cabal has hijacked every major institution, government agency, and legacy media outlet in the cause of America’s ruin and destruction.
In the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, Columbia University’s current president, Minouche Shafik, sparked controversy by referring to terrorism as ‘a form of protesting’ during an event just two months later. This statement has ignited a heated debate on social media, with various users questioning the implications of such a characterization and expressing a range of opinions from outrage to support. The discussion has touched on broader themes of terrorism, its victims, and the perception of protest in the context of violent acts.
Columbia’s president called the 9/11 attacks a form of protest just two month after thousands of Americans were killed.
Princeton Students Prepare to Set Up Anti-Israel Protest Encampment By ABIGAIL ANTHONY
April 24, 2024 8:18 AM – Princeton University students are preparing to establish an anti-Israel protest encampment, according to documents obtained by National Review. The students claim to have pro bono legal support and trained security.
A draft of a press release titled “Princeton Gaza Solidarity Encampment Demands” states that the “goal” is to “put pressure on the Princeton University administration to divest and disassociate from Israel, and to call attention to the University’s active contribution to ongoing genocide and human rights catastrophe.”
The group is demanding that 1) Princeton call for an immediate cease-fire and “condemn Israel’s genocidal campaign,” 2) commit to full transparency in its investments 3) dissociate and divest its endowment from direct and indirect holdings in companies that “profit from or engage in the State of Israel’s ongoing military campaign, occupation, and apartheid policies,” 4) divest from private fossil-fuel companies 5) disclose and end research funded by the Department of Defense 6) “refrain from any form of academic or cultural association with Israeli institutions and businesses 7) “cultivate affiliations with Palestinian academic and cultural institutions” and 8) stop sponsoring and facilitating programs like Birthright Israel trips and Tiger-Trek Israel, and relations with the Tikvah Fund.
Encampments have been set up on campuses across the United States. The “Gaza Solidarity” encampment at Columbia University has now reached its seventh day, while police began arresting protesters and disassembling tents at Yale on Monday.
“We condemn the settler-colonial project and apartheid regime enacted by the State of Israel, which is conducting a genocidal military campaign against the Palestinian people and has, for decades, implemented a regime of apartheid within Palestine/Israel,” reads an email draft obtained by National Review.
Qatar, ‘Leading Sponsor of Terrorism in the World, More than Iran,’ Is Not an Impartial Mediator by Bassam Tawil
April 24, 2024 at 5:00 am
- The idea that Qatar has been acting as a mediator in the negotiations between Israel and Hamas is nothing short of laughable. Qatar has actually long been staunchly aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood organization, of which Hamas is an offshoot.
- The Muslim Brotherhood — according to a hearing at the U.S. House Subcommittee on National Security on July 11, 2018 — is a militant Islamist organization with affiliates in over 70 countries, including groups designated as terrorist organizations by the US.
- “”Qatar has huge influence over the Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestinian affiliate, Hamas…. For too long, Doha has danced between its Islamist allies and its Western and Arab partners.” — Hussein Ibish, a senior resident scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington, The Atlantic, October 20, 2023
- Qatar has a long history of supporting the Muslim Brotherhood and its radical terrorist offshoots…. Qatar has also provided political and financial support to Hamas. In 2008, Doha reportedly pledged $250 million to Hamas, one year after the terror group violently seized control of the Gaza Strip. In 2012, Qatari Emir Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani became the first head of state to visit Gaza, pledging $400 million to Hamas. Since then, the Qatari government has continued to send money to Hamas.
- Qatar’s goal is to keep Hamas in power. Qatar has no reason to care if thousands of Palestinians die in the Gaza Strip, so long as Hamas is permitted to continue ruling the coastal enclave.
BREAKING: Senate Passes $95.3 Billion Aid to Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan, and Gaza — Here are the Republicans Who Voted with Democrats By Jim Hᴏft
Apr. 23, 2024 9:13 pm – The Senate has approved a massive $95 billion emergency foreign aid package with no U.S. border security.
A group of RINOs joined Democrats to support the bill. The measure passed by a vote of 79 to 18.
The passing of the bill saw 48 Democrats joined by 31 Republicans in favor of the foreign aid efforts. However, 15 Republicans broke ranks to vote against the package, with three Democrats joining in opposition.
The finalized bill encompasses extensive provisions:
- $47.7 billion through the Defense Department to support Ukraine’s military with training, equipment, weapons, and logistical aid.
- $13.4 billion to restock U.S. military equipment sent to Ukraine.
- $20.5 billion for U.S. Armed Forces support in Europe.
- $9.5 billion in economic aid to Ukraine as a forgivable loan.
- Added to this is 15 billion** in military aid designated for Israel and **9 billion in humanitarian assistance for Gaza and other conflict zones, a point of contention for conservative Republicans concerned about the funds being intercepted by Hamas.
- The bill also allots $8 billion to counter Chinese aggression in the Indo-Pacific and introduces legislation that would force the divestment or ban of TikTok in the United States.

“Today the Senate sends a unified message to the entire world. America will always defend democracy in its hour of need. We tell our allies we will stand with you. We tell our adversaries don’t mess with us,” Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer declared on the Senate floor per NBC.
“If we want the world to remain a safe place for freedom, for democratic principles, and for our future prosperity, then America must lead the way. And with this bill, the Senate declares that American leadership will not waver, not falter, not fail.”
Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said U.S. “adversaries want America to decide that reinforcing allies and partners is not in our interest and that investing in strategic competition is not worth it. They want us to take hard-earned credibility and light it on fire.”
“But today, the Senate responded by reaffirming a commitment to rebuild and modernize our military, restore our credibility, and give the current commander in chief, as well as the next, more tools to secure our interests,” he continued.

The massive foreign-aid package now heads to Joe Biden, where he is expected to rubber-stamped and sign it on Wednesday.

April 24, 2024 – Steve Bannon, the host of WarRoom, has been highlighting the need for the US House to start a criminal conspiracy probe to examine President Donald J. Trump’s treatment by Democrat Joe Biden and others. This week, Bannon has accused members of the administrative deep state, including US Rep. Jim Jordon (R-OH), Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), and other Republicans, of failing to uphold the rule of law and neglecting to defend Trump, who remains embroiled in legal proceedings in New York City.
A bombshell exposing a plan that started in 2021 to entrap Trump was dropped on Tuesday and came to Bannon’s WarRoom through investigative reporter Julie Kelly.
For her fuel, Kelly draws attention to newly released documents showing Jack Smith’s responses to Donald Trump’s motion to compel discovery in the classified documents case. The documents reveal Smith’s attempts to deny access to critical information, including evidence of collusion between DOJ and NARA officials.
US Rep. Dan Bishop (R-NC) reacted to Kelly’s findings, accusing the Special Counsel of leading a cover-up.
Concurrently, Trump faces politically charged SLAPP-style lawsuits and criminal charges. At the same time, recent revelations suggest that the Federal government has systematically targeted Trump for years, orchestrating what Bannon terms “Lawfare” – a strategy aimed at subjecting him to egregious abuses.
Now, Judge Cannon has made bombshell revelations from court documents transparent to the public, even as corporate media are targeting her.
Kelly’s findings suggest a coordinated effort to use lawfare against President Donald Trump, prompting Bannon’s continued calls for high scrutiny that could lead to potential criminal conspiracy investigations by the US House.
Kelly’s revelations gained significant traction this week on Twitter after she posted viral content on Monday unveiling key evidence related to a classified documents case.
The unredacted documents likely expose collaboration between the Biden White House and the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) to construct a case against Trump.
As a 2024 presidential candidate, Trump has faced a barrage of legal maneuvers aimed at impeding his campaign efforts. Kelly’s investigation uncovers a scheme, obviously designed to drain Trump’s energy and resources, hindering his ability to campaign effectively against Biden.
It is noteworthy that despite Kelly’s extensive coverage and viral tweets, Republican leadership has remained silent, failing to address this significant issue, igniting red-hot anger from Bannon.
Kelly told Bannon on Tuesday that the uncovered plan to disable Trump with such tactics dates back to 2021 and involves numerous individuals. Special Counsel Jack Smith’s alleged efforts to conceal evidence in the classified documents case further underscore the depth of the scheme.
Smith’s apparent justification for keeping evidence of collusion between DOJ and NARA officials under wraps, citing the intelligence community as a “victim” of Trump, raises further questions about the integrity of the investigation, according to Kelly.
Despite extensive cooperation between the DOJ and NARA, Kelly said that the government’s subpoena of NARA for additional documents in May 2023 revealed 19 responsive documents related to the Crossfire Hurricane and the John Durham investigation, adding another layer of complexity to the case.
Key Points: Kelly characterized the whole report posting, “Outrageous lies by Joe Biden, Attorney General Merrick Garland, and DOJ/Jack Smith about “independence” from investigations into Trump. The Biden White House and DOJ wew intimately involved in developing a criminal case against Trump for records mismanagement–it appears the first go-around related to alleged “destruction” of government papers. Contrary to public and legal assertions, NARA was working with DOJ/White House to craft a criminal referral by Sept. 2021–FIVE MONTHS before the “official” referral by NARA to DOJ in Feb 2022. (Govt redactions on left, newly unredacted filing on right.)”
Here are Kelly’s critical tweets on the topic:
Fascism: Joe Biden Considering Declaring a National Climate Emergency and Giving Himself “COVID-Like” Powers Without Congressional Approval (VIDEO) By Cullen Linebarger
Apr. 23, 2024 6:20 pm – Facing dire polling numbers and a lack of left-wing enthusiasm for his “re-election” campaign, Joe Biden is considering taking an extreme measure that should send chills down the spines of any American who values liberty.
During an April 19 broadcast of the Fox Business Show The Bottom Line with Dagen and Duffy, co-host Sean Duffy revealed that the Biden White House told Fox Business that it is considering defying the Constitution and declaring a climate emergency. He then turned to his guest Marc Morano, a former Republican political aide who runs a climate change skeptic website called ClimateDepot.com, and asked him what impact it would have.
Morano cited an NBC News report indicating that if Biden declared a climate emergency, he would have COVID-like emergency powers. This would include the ability to implement the socialist Green New Deal along with up to 130 measures without approval from Congress.

CAPITALISM WORKS: Javier Milei’s Argentina Has First Quarter Budget Surplus in 16 Years – Libertarian Leader Says ‘Our Plan Is Working’ by Paul Serran
Apr. 23, 2024 5:40 pm – Economic improvements in a country’s economy are not magic, President Javier Milei told Argentines in a televised address where he had good and rare news to announce: his government is successfully taming reckless public spending, which resulted in a rare – and welcome – first quarter budget surplus.
Milei stated that this is key to improving economic prospects in the once-prosperous Latin American nation.
Reuters reported:
“‘Our plan is working’, declared the libertarian leader in a televised address.
Milei took office in December pledging to enact an economic ‘shock’ plan in a bid to lower triple-digit inflation and reverse a prolonged economic slump marked by the steady deterioration of the peso currency and growing poverty.
‘I know the situation is difficult’, Milei added, ‘but we’re more than halfway there’.”
Argentina has managed to get a financial fiscal surplus of more than 275 billion pesos ($315.4 million) in March.
The first quarter surplus represented 0.2% of the nation’s gross domestic product (GDP).
“‘We’re going to give everything to pull this country out of the hell we inherited’, he said, attacking previous governments for the country’s dire economic straits.”
After implementing his promised spending-slashing, Milei was happy to report the “historic achievement.”
AFP reported:
“‘This is the first quarter with a financial surplus since 2008’, said Milei, referring to his left-wing rival Cristina Kirchner’s first year in the presidency.
Milei, who took office in December, boasted of ‘a feat of historic significance on a global scale’.
‘If the state does not spend more than it collects and does not issue (money), there is no inflation. This is not magic’, the self-described ‘anarcho-capitalist’ said.”
Milei was the winner in the November elections vowing to reduce the deficit to zero.
“‘Don’t expect a way out through public spending’, Milei warned on Monday.”

Illegal immigrants to be deported to Rwanda this summer Tziki Brandwine
After months of political wrangling, British PM announced that deportations of illegal immigrants will begin within 10-12 weeks.
Apr 23, 2024, 10:15 PM (GMT+3) – British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has announced that his government’s plan to deport illegal immigrants from the UK to Rwanda will begin in 10-12 weeks.
The plan sparked a lively debate in the UK, which reminded many of the Israeli plan to deport immigrants, until Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s 2018 decision to suspend the plan before it even began.
At a press conference held by Sunak, he was asked how many would be deported during the summer, but refused to give a number, saying that “there will be many flights throughout the summer.”
[Ed.: Brilliant! That’s exactly what we should do with our 13 million – ship them over to Rwanda!]
Biden Tries to Dunk on Trump in Tampa and it Goes Horribly Wrong: “How Many Times Does [Trump] Have to Prove We Can’t be Trusted?!” (VIDEO) By Cristina Laila
Apr. 23, 2024 3:20 pm – Joe Biden on Tuesday arrived in Tampa, Florida to attack the 6-week abortion ban during remarks at Hillsborough Community College’s Dale Mabry campus.
Virtually no one cared that Joe Biden was in Tampa on Tuesday.
Biden was greeted by a huge Laken Riley billboard truck.
A side-by-side of Trump in Florida vs Biden in Florida is very telling.
Biden can’t fill a small venue. Trump packed the house as far as the eye could see.
Florida is Trump country. It’s not even close!
Biden slurred through his short speech at Hillsborough Community College.
At one point Biden tried to slam Trump but his wires got crossed and it went horribly wrong.
“How many times does [Trump] have to prove we can’t be trusted!?” Biden shouted. [Emphasis added]
Oops!

Prince Harry’s Charity in Africa Accused of Widespread Torture and Rape By Paul Serran
Apr. 23, 2024 2:40 pm – All over the world, a number of charitable initiatives are sometimes involved in shady practices, especially in underdeveloped areas.
Now it arises that Prince Harry’s African conservation charity is facing renewed torture allegations.
A former park ranger has now admitted to tying up suspects and beating them, including using a horrific torture technique called ‘the swing.’
The allegations of rape and abuse by Zambian African Park rangers became public for the first time in January, but now, Dutch journalist Olivier van Beemen has published additional accusations in a book called Entrepreneurs in the Wild.
Van Beemen’s book tells how African Parks once debated whether Harry could pose a reputational risk to them, but now it clearly seems to be the other way around, as allegations against the charity have caused a reputational crisis for Harry.
Former ranger Foster Kalunga explained the torture method called kampelwa – or ‘swing.’
Newsweek reported:
“‘Sometimes we use kampelwa’, said Kalunga, a ranger in Liuwa Plain national park for five years until 2022. ‘Then you tie someone up, hands and feet tied together, behind his back, and you hang him on a stick between two branches. And then you spin him around while you hit him. It doesn’t last long because it hurts a lot. When he hangs there he says everything you want, even things he doesn’t know’.
African Parks told Newsweek in a statement: ‘The book is replete with hundreds of factual inaccuracies and a similar number of intentionally misleading statements, which reflect the author’s own prejudices and his confirmation bias to paint a negative account of African Parks. In particular, his accounts of alleged human rights abuses are deeply flawed and based on statements taken from accused criminal offenders and dismissed employees, or relate to incidents that have no relation to African Parks. African Parks has a strict zero tolerance policy for any form of human rights abuse, and we deeply regret any violations that might occur’.”
Kalunga, African Parks have stated, was discharged for ‘gross misconduct’ after assaulting a senior officer.
The charity also said that no records or knowledge exist of ‘kampelwa’ being used by the rangers under their management.
Prince Harry was president of the NGO before being promoted to its board of directors last year, a position that awards him responsibility for policy.
“When news of the scandal first broke in January, Harry and Meghan’s Archewell Foundation said in a statement: ‘When the Duke became aware of these serious allegations, he immediately escalated them to the CEO and chairman of the board of African Parks, the appropriate people to handle next steps.’”

NOT MAKING HEADLINES: Stormy Daniels Owes Trump $300,000 Plus Interest for Making FALSE CLAIMS Against Him By Jim Hoft
Apr. 23, 2024 12:20 pm – For some reason the lapdog media is not reporting today that Stormy Daniels owes President Trump $300,000 for making false claims against him.
In March 2022, the 9th Circuit Court issued a final ruling in the case brought against Trump by disgraced attorney Michael Avenatti and Stormy.
The court ruled that Stormy Daniels owed President Trump $300,000 in legal fees for filing a frivolous lawsuit against the US President.
The media is ignoring this important development as they continue to lie by omission to the American public.
Never trust the legacy media!
MORE WOKE MADNESS: NPR Has a Trigger Warning on the Declaration of Independence By Mike Lachance
Apr. 22, 2024 9:00 pm – National Public Radio has been in the news quite a bit lately. A longtime employee blew the whistle on how the organization went fully left-wing activist after Trump won in 2016. For that, he was suspended and then quit.
Then their newest CEO was exposed as a liberal wingnut, as if we couldn’t have guessed that.
Now Trump and others are calling for them to be defunded and that’s a good thing because their lunacy keeps being shown to be worse than anyone even knew.
A twitter user with a good eye was recently looking at their archives and realized that they have placed a ‘trigger warning’ on the Declaration of Independence. Yes, really.
NewsBusters reports:
Hopelessly Woke NPR Places Trigger Warning on Declaration of Independence
The hopeless wokeness of tax-funded National Public Radio has been confirmed by NPR senior business editor Uri Berliner, who started shockwaves with his Free Press essay “I’ve Been at NPR for 25 Years. Here’s How We Lost America’s Trust” providing chapter and verse of how NPR had been take over fully by the left, and as a result blowing several major stories like Russiagate, the Hunter Biden laptop, and dismissing the coronavirus lab leak theory. For his whistleblowing efforts, the veteran journalist Berliner was suspended from NPR for five days before resigning…
One example of anti-American wokeness is the “editor’s note” NPR staff felt obliged to place on archived stories about its on-air reading every Independence Day of the Declaration of Independence in full, an honorable tradition apparently now consigned to the ash-heap of history.
Yes, one of America’s founding documents now requires a trigger warning, in the view of partially government funded radio (hat tip: Masks are bad, actually on X):
Editor’s note on July 8, 2022: This story quotes the U.S. Declaration of Independence — a document that contains offensive language about Native Americans, including a racial slur.
If NPR has a problem with America’s founding documents, they should not be benefiting from American tax dollars.
It’s really that simple.
Ben Bergquam Reports: Columbia Professors Come Out in Force to Support of Anti-Israel Protesters – Refuse to Condemn Hamas Killers – DISTURBING VIDEO By Jim Hoft
Apr. 23, 2024 10:00 am – Columbia university staff overwhelming support the Pro-palestinian protesters and display their loyalty at graduation ceremonies.
Ben Bergquam from Real America’s Voice was reporting at Columbia University in New York City on Tuesday.
The staff on campus were wearing sashes in support of the Palestinians and against Isreal. From the video it appears over two-thirds of the staff were wearing the sashes supporting Palestinians. The sash read “we support our students” meaning the Columbia staff supports the anti-Isreal mob that took over their campus.
Ben confronted staff but not one single professor or staff member would speak to Ben for some reason.
Numerous protesters were carrying flyers that read, “Unsuspend our students.”
Thank goodness Joe Biden is cancelling the loans for these university students.
Only one professor or staff member said he did not support the “Death to America” chants.
Pro-Palestinian, Anti-Israel, Protests Spread to Yale, UMichigan, NYU and Across America By Benjamin Wetmore
Apr. 23, 2024 10:15 am – Several days of protests, assaults on Jewish students, and chaos at Columbia University in New York City have now spread to other American college campuses. Columbia has since suspended two Palestinian groups, and a local rabbi has encouraged Jewish students to flee the campus.
Now, roughly 45 pro-Palestinian protesters were arrested for ‘trespassing’ at Yale University, according to the New Haven Police Department. All were being released on mere promises to appear in court later, meaning they were released with zero bond to ensure they will reappear in court.
This comes in the wake of 108 pro-Palestinian demonstrators at Columbia University arrested for setting up a ‘tent city’ on the campus last week. Dozens arrested at pro-Palestinian demonstrations at Yale and New York University as student protests concerning Israel’s Gaza war continue.
The protests are focused on the disparity of the evolving conflict in the Middle East between Israel and the Palestinians. The October 7th terror attacks by Hamas on Israel and Israeli citizens killed an estimated 1,200 Israelis. Israel’s military response, invading the Gaza Strip to hunt down Hamas, has displaced millions and, according to Hamas, widely known for their lies and brutality, claims 34,000 lives have been lost so far.
Protests have spread nationwide to the following campuses, where some are taking the form of ‘tent city’ encampment protests:
- Columbia University
- Yale University
- Harvard University
- New York University
- Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
- Cal Poly (California Polytechnic)
- Tufts University
- Emerson College
- The New School (NY)
- The University of Michigan
- University of Maryland
- University of North Carolina Chapel Hill
- University of Southern California
- Vanderbilt University
- Washington University in St. Louis
“This Will Be the Sleeper Issue of 2024” — THE DEMOCRAT ELECTION STEAL IS IN MOTION: 1.7 Million Mysterious Voter Registrations Recorded in Texas Since 2020 By Jim Hoft
Apr. 23, 2024 7:30 am – The Democrat election steal machine is in motion.
While Republicans sleep Democrats are already maneuvering for another massive election steal in November 2024.
Either the Republican Party is completely worthless or is in on it. They can’t possibly be this blind and ignorant. [Emphasis added]
Catherine Engelbrecht from True the Vote released a shocking video on Monday regarding a mysterious surge in Texas voter registrations since the beginning of 2024.
Texas added 1.8 million new registrations before the 2020 election.
Since 2020 Texas has added 1,783,547 names to the voter rolls. That’s an 11 percent increase!
Democrat groups are also spending tens of millions on groups that claim they are “get out the vote” efforts, but are they really?
The Gateway Pundit broke the news last year on how one group, GBI strategies in Michigan, was caught dumping 8,000 to 10,000 ballot registrations into one county in Michigan.
The FBI later took over this investigation where it went to die over three years ago!
SNL Sketch From 2015 Goes Viral – Implies Going to a Liberal College is Like Joining ISIS (VIDEO 1:37) By Mike Lachance
Apr. 22, 2024 10:20 pm – Saturday Night Live has not been funny in years, but a 2015 sketch is going viral on social media for implying that going to a liberal college is like joining the ISIS terror group.
People are identifying with the sketch in light of the pro-Hamas demonstrations taking place at Columbia University, Yale, and many other elite schools.
SNL probably couldn’t even make this sketch today because it would offend too many people in their fan base.
Newsweek reports:
SNL Sketch Goes Viral Amid Columbia Protests: ‘Predicted the Future’
A 2015 Saturday Night Live sketch about ISIS has gone viral after it was posted by a Rabbi who said it “predicted the future”, and commenters have linked it to the ongoing tension at Columbia University in New York City.
Classes have been canceled at the university as a pro-Palestinian protest encampment on the campus refuses to budge, despite police arresting more than 100 people on Thursday…
In the sketch, guest host Dakota Johnson plays a student being dropped off at a bus terminal to head to college for the first time by her dad (Taran Killam). She assures him not to worry about her because some friends were coming to pick her up.
A pickup truck then rolls up behind them bearing the flags of terrorist group ISIS, and men in army fatigues wielding machine guns and bazookas riding in the back.
“Looks like your ride’s here,” Killam says, adding, “you be careful.” Johnson leans down to the window and says, “dad it’s just ISIS.”
Jewish Students Told to Leave Columbia As Passover Approaches By Pamela Geller
April 22, 2024 – On Pesach, ironically.
How is this any different from what the Nazis did to the Jews at German universities and colleges?
Alumni warn: ‘Violence against Jews at Columbia U. imminent’
Muslims and Leftists Beat Jewish Students at Columbia University
Jewish Students Told to Leave Columbia After Passover Warning By: Newsweek,
Apr 22, 2024: Jewish students at Columbia University were encouraged to leave the school ahead of the Passover holiday as pro-Palestinian protests continue on campus.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Eric Schorr, a former Israel Defense Force intelligence officer “wholeheartedly” suggested that “Jewish students not only leave campus but potentially seek new institutions for their continued education.”
As a security professional, the campus is no longer safe, it is time for the Jewish community, students, faculty and alumni donors, to vacate and abandon it entirely,” Schorr wrote on Sunday.
House Judiciary opens formal inquiry into ATF killing of Arkansas airport executive By John Solomon
Lawmakers question lack of required body cams for raid, no-knock execution of warrant after Just the News reporting.
April 22, 2024 12:43pm – The House Judiciary Committee on Monday launched a formal inquiry into federal agents’ fatal shooting of an Arkansas airport executive during the execution of a gun case search warrant at his home, demanding the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) explain why it carried out the search without knocking and without using required body cams.
The ATF’s fatal shooting last month of Bryan Malinowski, an administrator at the Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport in Little Rock, has reignited concerns about the agency’s enforcement of gun laws and regulations under President Joe Biden as well as prompted a criminal investigation by Arkansas authorities.
The death and the circumstances of ATF’s pursuit of Malinowski was the focus of a recent Just the News investigation.
“The circumstances of Mr. Malinowski’s death raise questions about whether the ATF followed proper protocol during the execution of this search warrant,” House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan wrote ATF Director Steven Dettelbach in a letter demanding answers.
“Department of Justice policy and President Biden’s Executive Order 14074 requires ATF agents—including those who conducted the search warrant on March 19, 2024—to wear active body-worn cameras during the execution of a search warrant,” the letter noted. “The Department has since confirmed to the Malinowski family that ATF agents were not wearing body cameras during the raid, a violation of the Department policy.
Jordan also questioned whether ATF agencies “complied with” a Justice Department policy that sharply limited agents’ use of “no knock” entries.
“ATF has not explained why it resorted to a no knock entry of Mr. Malinowski’s home when it could have peacefully executed the warrant while he was away from his residence,” Jordan’s letter stated.
The chairman said he was concerned ATF’s raid was driven by an ideological crackdown by the Biden administration on gun owners who sell weapons occasionally without acquiring a federal firearms license.
“ATF’s pre-dawn, no-knock raid of the Malinowski home coincided with the agency’s implementation of a regulation to restrict the right to private lawful sales of firearms,” the letter noted. “In particular, ATF seeks to drastically expand the universe of Americans who would be classified as a ‘dealer’ under federal law requiring them to obtain a license to become a Federal Firearms Licensee (FFL), subjecting them to a term of imprisonment of up to five years and a fine of up to $250,000, or both.
“Mr. Malinowski exercised his Second Amendment rights and was a firearms enthusiast. Even if, as ATF has alleged, Mr. Malinowski violated federal law, it does not justify ATF’s actions that ultimately lead to the use of deadly force,’” the letter added.
BREAKING: Judge Smacks Down Letitia James, Rules in Favor of Trump in Fight Over $175 Million Bond By Cristina Laila
Apr. 22, 2024 12:40 pm – A judge on Monday smacked down Marxist tyrant Letitia James and ruled in favor of Trump in a fight over a $175 million bond.
On Friday Letitia James asked a judge to void Trump’s $175 million bond that he posted to appeal the civil fraud case
Letitia James argued that California-based Knight Specialty Insurance Company (KSIC) is not approved to do business in New York.
James also questioned whether KSIC has the funds to back up the $175 million bond Trump previously posted.
“Based on KSIC’s policyholder surplus in its most recent annual financial statement of $138,441,671, the limitation of loss on any one risk that KSIC is permitted to write is $13.8 million,” Letitia James’ office wrote in a 26-page filing according to Fox News. “The face amount of the bond exceeds this limitation by $161.2 million.”
James also argued in her filing: “KSIC is not qualified to act as the surety under this standard because its management has been found by federal authorities to have operated affiliated companies within KSIC’s holding company structure in violation of federal law on multiple occasions within the past several years.”
“KSIC does not now have an exclusive right to control the account and will not obtain such control unless and until it exercises a right to do so on two days’ notice,” James’ office wrote in the filing.
Letitia James asked the judge to void Trump’s bond and require him to post another bond within 7 days of the court’s decision.
The judge ruled against Letitia James on Monday and said Trump’s $175 million bond can stand.

JUST IN: SCOTUS Denies Kari Lake and Mark Finchem’s Lawsuit to Ban Voting Machines Without Comment By Jordan Conradson
Apr. 22, 2024 12:00 pm – The United States Supreme Court on Monday dismissed a lawsuit by former Arizona Gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake and former Secretary of State candidate Mark Finchem to ban the use of hackable electronic voting machines.
Kari Lake is the Trump-Endorsed US Senate Candidate in Arizona and is on course to face Democrat Ruben Gallego in November.
The appeal by Lake and Finchem comes after the stolen 2022 election, where 60% of the voting machines were reportedly programmed to fail on election day, causing mass voter disenfranchisement and up to four-hour-long lines for Republican in-person voters. Kari Lake ran for governor and allegedly lost the race by less than one percent after this debacle, despite leading by double digits in polls leading up to election day.
The filing includes “new allegations,” some of which were previously mentioned in Kari Lake’s lawsuit to overturn the stolen election, including:
- First, Maricopa did not conduct the required L&A testing, on which the district court relied to find the risk of election interference speculative.
- Second, Maricopa did not use certified software, on which the district court relied to find the risk of election interference speculative.
- Third, Maricopa used software that made all passwords needed to control Maricopa elections available to anyone with physical or remote access, which supports petitioners’ allegations and evidence that past elections were manipulated.
- Fourth, altering election software without the Arizona Secretary of State’s approval is criminal act under Arizona law, A.R.S. §§16-449(A), 16- 452(C), 16-1009, 16-1004(B), 16-1010, thereby evaporating presumptions in their favor under Arizona law. See note 5, infra (Arizona’s “bursting bubble” theory of nonstatutory presumptions).
- Fifth, Maricopa’s officials misrepresented their compliance with Arizona election law (e.g., L&A testing, certified software), which negates any presumptions in their favor under Arizona law. See note 5, infra (Arizona’s “bursting bubble” theory of nonstatutory presumptions).
- Sixth, Maricopa officials abdicated control over the complex election systems to embedded private Dominion employees who lack any presumption of regularity under Arizona law. See note 4, infra.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported on these claims and video evidence that Maricopa County conducted secret reprogramming of the machines on October 14 through 18 after the Secretary of State’s October 11 Logic and Accuracy testing without notifying the Secretary of State for required additional testing.
The Inmates Are Running the Asylum: Columbia University President Cancels In-Person Classes as Anti-Israel Protests Escalate and Protesters Chant for Hamas on Campus By Jim Hoft
Apr. 22, 2024 7:55 am – Anti-Israel protesters form a tent city and take over the Columbia University campus. Classes were cancelled on Monday April 22, 2024 and Jewish students were told not to attend classes by prominent Jews.
Columbia University President Minouche Shafik released a statement on Monday morning cancelling in-person classes on campus on Monday.
Dean Shafik hopes to convene a “working group” to discuss the crisis on campus including the debate on whether or not to bring police on campus.
“A working group of Deans, university administrators and faculty members will try to bring this crisis to a resolution. That includes continuing discussions with the student protestors and identifying actions we can take as a community to enable us to peacefully complete the term and return to respectful engagement with each other. I know that there is much debate about whether or not we should use the police on campus, and I am happy to engage in those discussions.”
This comes as anti-Israel protests continue to escalate on the campus.
The campus now appears to be under control of the Jew-hating radicals.
Rabbinical leaders warned Jewish students to stay home amid the ongoing “extreme antisemitism and anarchy.”
The protesters are chanting for Hamas on the campus.
US Supreme Court has undercut all DEI-based discrimination Freedom Piper, X
[Peloni: It is well past time for the anti-Constitutional legitimization of mandated discriminatory practices of DEI be struck down. What the Court has done here, however, places those corporations who support such descriminatory practices as being subject to lawsuit for ” “some harm” under the terms of their employment, AND that harm need not be “material,” “substantial” or “serious.” “]
April 21, 2024 – In a landmark 9-0 ruling on Wednesday that you will never hear about in the media, the US Supreme Court has undercut all DEI-based discrimination, sending the Marxists into a tizzy.
The US Supreme Court’s ruling that a St. Louis police sergeant can sue over a job transfer she claims was discriminatory lays the foundation for legal action against employers who push discrimination against white people in job hiring, work assignment and promotion. That’s right, those “diversity-preferred” job postings, the practice of passing over whites for promotions, discriminatory job transfers, pushing unfair diversity trainings, etc…all of these are now legally actionable.
The ruling was championed by human rights groups as “an enormous win for workers,” but has lawyers for companies like Disney warning that it could have a chilling effect on employers’ diversity initiatives.
Disney’s “Pale and Male is Stale” policy is a prime example. Disney has allegedly used it to drive out white animators by giving them the worst assignments, even though they them have the most experience, skill, and seniority, in order to make the job humiliating enough that they quit…which many of them have done.
The same companies argue that there is ‘good discrimination’ and “bad discrimination’, that white people should be purposely disadvantaged to pave the way for diversity. The lawyers stated that the decision will ‘complicate’ DEI programs and limit their ability to discriminate against white men.
The Supreme Court torpedoed these claims, re-asserting that everyone is equal in the eyes of the law. Further, the court has established a relatively ‘low standard’ for bringing discrimination cases. The victim need not suffer ‘actual harm’. An employee only must show “some harm” under the terms of their employment, AND that harm need not be “material,” “substantial” or “serious.” The decision makes it much easier for workers to sue over discriminatory practices. This is a big win for equality!
Read the decision on the Supreme Court site: https://t.co/fpT8xHOiTS
Here is one of the sources used to corroborate the impacts: https://t.co/FPOlBgljWl
Justice Kavanaugh wrote a concurring opinion, and even stated the “some harm” requirement, though a much lower barrier to litigation, was in his opinion not required. His biew is that no harm need be proven, simply the ACT of discrimination on basis of race, color, etc is itself ‘harm’. The road is paved for equality to once agin be restored to our struggling Marxist-controlled Republic.
Patriot Roy Rogue has posted the prior decision from the appeals court, which SCOTUS has overturned. In particular, the assertion that any “materially significant harm” must be proven. By lowering the standard of proof, SCOTUS has now opened the door.
Love Jihad hits India: Hindu girl raped throughout Ramadan, another is publicly stabbed to death BY ASHLYN DAVIS
APR 21, 2024 11:00 AM – The month of Ramadan, say the Muslims, is the holiest. During this month, Muslims practice peace. They fast during the daytime by abstaining from all food and drink and steer clear of evil deeds. But then there is Ayan Pathan, who has been arrested by Madhya Pradesh police in India for abducting a Hindu girl and continually raping her throughout the month of Ramadan.
The 24-year-old Pathan, who has been caught in Madhya Pradesh’s Guna district, had befriended a 23-year-old Hindu girl from the same area and convinced her to enter into a romantic relationship with him. But soon, he started to harass the girl for her property.
The victim recounts: “I have known him for a month or two. He stays in the neighborhood. Since then he has been assaulting, raping and torturing me for the property. I am fatherless and I stay with my mother in Guna. The accused said that he loved me, but later he began harassing me for my property.”
When the girl disagreed to surrender her property to him, he abducted her. During the abduction, he regularly raped her, hit her with a leather belt and iron instruments, and poured chilly flakes and salt on her bleeding wounds. He would also stuff her mouth with adhesive to preclude her from screaming.
While she was successful in escaping the captivity once, Pathan convinced her to stay back and then again brutally beat her. The girl managed to flee and reached the police station to file a complaint. Her mother asserts that Ayan trapped her daughter in the love affair only for her property, and demanded the strictest punishment for him.
Nigeria: Muslims slaughter 29 Christians in three-day massacre BY ROBERT SPENCER
APR 21, 2024 8:30 AM – The world continues to look the other way and ignore this genocide. This is because Israel cannot be blamed, and because it doesn’t fit the media template of Muslims as brown victims and Christians as white oppressors. Any news item that concerns Christians and Muslims but doesn’t fit that narrative is resolutely ignored.
“Twenty-nine Nigerian Christians slaughtered in three-day pogrom,” The Catholic Herald, April 19, 2024:
Suspected Fulani Islamist militants carried out on a three-day massacre in Pankshin Diocese in Nigeria’s Middle Belt, killing 29 Christians, injuring a further two, and burning down churches and houses.
The attacks took place across the villages of Kopnanle, Mandung, Bokkos Town and the Mbar district of Bokkos.
Uganda: Muslim puts pesticide in his mother’s food, killing her, because she left Islam and became a Christian BY ROBERT SPENCER
APR 21, 2024 3:00 PM – The intention is not only to carry out Islam’s death penalty for apostasy, but to serve as a warning to others who might be considering converting. It is intended to “strike terror” (Qur’an 8:60) within them, so that they’ll remain Muslim. [Emphasis added]
“Muslim Suspected of Killing His Christian Mother, Relative Says,” Morning Star News, April 16, 2024:
NAIROBI, Kenya (Morning Star News) – A Muslim in eastern Uganda is suspected of killing his mother last week by putting pesticide in her food for refusing to leave her Christian faith, a relative said.
Sulaina Nabirye, 50, of Kamuli, Kamuli District, put her faith in Christ on Feb. 10, and since then her 31-year-old son had tried to persuade her to return to Islam, said the relative, whose name is withheld for security reasons.
“During the month of Ramadan, she complained of her son pressuring her to stop attending church and revert back to Islam, since he was studying to become an imam at Bugembe Mosque,” the relative said. “When she refused to convert back to Islam, he stopped visiting her at her house and threatened to chase or even kill her.”
Nabirye’s fears led the source to make frequent visits, praying with and encouraging her to withstand the threats.
“She had peace and joy and was encouraged by the sermons from the pastor,” the source said.
The threats from Nabirye’s son, Arajabu Mukiibi, intensified during Ramadan, and the source was present when Mukiibi visited on April 9 to tell Nabirye that his wife would prepare dinner for them.

HITLER YOUTH Rampage at Columbia University; Pro-Terror Jew Haters Call for Killing of Jewish Students, Praise Jihad Murderers By Pamela Geller
April 21, 2024 – Screaming, “Hamas (Al-Qassam), make us proud! Burn Tel Aviv to the ground!” and “Hamas, we love you. We support your rockets too.”
Jewish students can no longer attend class in the person.
This is not static, it’s fluid and its going somewhere terrible.
Jewish Yale Student Stabbed in Eye By Terrorist Student By Pamela Geller
April 21, 2024 – Hitler youth have taken over college campuses. Horrific.
Where did America think all this jihad porn and islamophilia would lead would lead?
‘Will National and Conn. Jewish Federation, ADL, AJC demand appropriate punishment – or just have another meeting to tell parents and students how to “handle” antisemitism? Think how powerfully the establishment Jewish organizations would act if the victim was part of any other minority group other than a Jew.’ (Geller Reader commenter)
Jewish Yale student stabbed in eye with PLO flag BY: JNS,
April 21, 2024:
A Jewish student at Yale University was stabbed in the eye with a PLO flag during an anti-Israel demonstration at the school’s New Haven, Conn., campus on Saturday night.
“Tonight at Yale, I was assaulted by a student today at an anti-Israel protest. He stabbed me in the eye with a Palestinian flag. Now I’m in the hospital. This is what happens when visibly Jewish students try to attend and document these rallies,” Sahar Tartak, a sophomore, tweeted after the incident.
BRAZIL AWAKENS: Hundreds of Thousands Gather in Rio’s Copacabana Beach Against Dictatorship and in Support of Bolsonaro! (VIDEOS) By Paul Serran
Apr. 21, 2024 12:20 pm – It’s a picture-perfect Autumn Sunday Morning, the kind that makes Rio de Janeiro one of the most celebrated cities in the world, the ‘Cidade Maravilhosa’ (City of Wonders).
On a day like that, it’s no wonder that people would flock to the beach.
But today, many people are not going to the famed Copacabana to be lazing on a Sunday morning; instead, they are gathering in yet another MASS demonstration against the socialist tyranny, in defense of democracy and in support of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro.
This comes right after the whole country became aware of the controversy pitting tech billionaire Elon Musk against the local Censorship Industrial Complex, led by a rogue Supreme Court and its self-appointed dictator, justice Alexandre de Moraes.
In the last few months, Brazilians watched as Bolsonaro, the greatest political leader, has been harassed, had his house raided, his passport taken, and his political rights suspended.
Meanwhile, the illegitimate President Lula da Silva leads a failing government rapidly destroying whatever economic stability we achieved under Bolsonaro’s no-nonsense administration.
Two months ago, a similar demonstration was held in the Streets of São Paulo, Brazil’s largest city and economic powerhouse. It gathered around 900,000 citizens to repudiate the socialist maneuvers to frame Bolsonaro for imaginary crimes (see link at the end of this post).
Lula was furious with the success of the São Paulo demonstration and wanted to stage a counter-rally, but his absolute lack of popular support meant that he could not.
But that didn’t stop him or his allies in the judiciary to keep harassing Bolsonaro and his followers, trying to institute a veritable dictatorship with the ridiculous excuse of ‘protecting the democracy’.
It is as they say in the US: ‘elections have consequences, and stolen elections have catastrophic consequences.’
But the Brazilian people have awakened, and it’s no coincidence that this is taking place on the holiday dedicated to Tiradentes (translatable as pull-teeth), the martyr for Brazilian independence.
It is as our national anthem says: ‘in thy bosom – O freedom, our chest challenges death itself’.
Columbia University: Masked protesters call to ‘Never forget the seventh of October’ and pledge to carry out similar attacks ‘10,000 times.’

UNREAL: They are FINING people for using wood stoves PETER IMANUELSEN
People in Britain can now be fined for heating their house with firewood.
APR 20, 2024 – You cannot make this up.
Another day goes by, and yet another insane climate law has been decided upon, all in the name of protecting the environment.
Now people living in South Gloucestershire in Britain can be fined if they want to heat their homes with firewood. Yes, you read that correctly.
With skyrocketing electricity prices, some people might try and save some money on heating by starting a cozy fire in the fireplace. But no…
This is bad for the environment as burning firewood emits bad particles they say.
But fear not! The Environmental health manager said that support would be available such as grants and low-interest LOANS so that homeowners can improve insulation in their houses and get renewable energy.
Really, people are being offered to take up a LOAN to insulate their house? In other words, that will costs people money.
With this push for useless wind turbines, naturally energy prices are going to go up in price. Because it is really simple. When the wind doesn’t blow, there is no electricity being produced. Ironically, we need the correct weather for the wind turbines to work.
[Ed.: The problem is not the wood stove, the problem is people. Leave the damned stoves alone, and just ban people.]
WOW: Michael Avenatti Says He is Willing to Testify on Behalf of Donald Trump in Hush Money Case By Cassandra Macdonald
Apr. 20, 2024 12:45 pm – Stormy Daniels’ former attorney, Michael Avenatti, has said that he is willing to testify on behalf of former President Donald Trump in the New York hush money trial.
Speaking to the New York Post from jail, Avenatti said he is in contact with Trump’s legal team and is willing to speak out against his former client.
“The defense has contacted me,” Avenatti told The Post.
Avenatti is currently being held at Terminal Island, a minimum-security federal prison in Los Angeles, serving a 19-year sentence for a slate of federal crimes that include extortion, tax evasion, fraud, and embezzlement.
“I’d be more than happy to testify, I don’t know that I will be called to testify, but I have been in touch with Trump’s defense for the better part of year,” Avenatti said.
Bishop Strickland Warns of ‘Crescendo of Apostasy’ by Vatican Forces Against Catholic Liturgy, Doctrine By Margaret Flavin
Apr. 20, 2024 4:45 pm – In November 2023, socialist Pope Francis removed Bishop Joseph Strickland of the Diocese of Tyler, Texas.
Strickland, appointed in 2012 by Pope Benedict XVI, had been vocal in his criticism of the Vatican’s approach towards LGBTQ issues, abortion, and the discussion around allowing priests to marry.
In announcing his removal, The Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston said in a statement:
In June of this year, the Holy Father, Pope Francis, directed that an Apostolic Visitation of the Diocese of Tyler should be conducted. Bishop Dennis Sullivan of Camden and Bishop Emeritus Gerald Kicanas of Tucson were appointed to conduct the Visitation. The Prelates conducted an exhaustive inquiry into all aspects of the governance and leadership of the Diocese of Tyler by its Ordinary, Bishop Joseph Strickland.
As a result of the Visitation, the recommendation was made to the Holy Father that the continuation in office of Bishop Strickland was not feasible. After months of careful consideration by the Dicastery for Bishops and the Holy Father, the decision was reached that the resignation of Bishop Strickland should be requested. Having been presented with that request on November 9, 2023, Bishop Strickland declined to resign from office. Thereafter, on November 11, 2023, the Holy Father removed Bishop Strickland from the Office of Bishop of Tyler.
Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò characterized the dismissal as “a cowardly form of authoritarianism.”
But despite Pope Francis’ efforts to silence him, Bishop Strickland continues to speak out against the “powerful forces in the Vatican doing their best to dismantle every vestige of supernatural faith.”
On Friday, Lifesite shared his letter on the ‘crescendo of apostasy’ by Vatican forces against Catholic liturgy and doctrine.
Here is his letter in its entirety.

U.K.’s Only Munitions Factory Explodes, Just Days After U.S. Army Ammunition Factory Catches Fires in Scranton, PA By Anthony Scott
Apr. 20, 2024 5:20 pm – The United Kingdom’s lone munitions filing factory exploded on Wednesday, just two days after a fire erupted at the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported on April 15th, the Scranton Army Ammunition Plant (SCAAP), the United States’ primary producer of 155mm artillery shell bodies, caught fire.
Just two days later, on April 17th, a section of the United Kingdom’s lone munition factory exploded after a single shell went off inside the factory.
The explosion occurred at the BAE Systems munitions factory in Glascoed, Wales.
BAE Systems is the biggest defense contractor in Europe and the 7th largest in the world.
The cause of the explosion at the munition factory is currently being investigated.
Per The Daily Mail:
Locals living close to a BAE Systems weapons plant rocked by an explosion earlier today say the blast ‘felt like an earthquake’ as a shell went off.
The blast took place at the BAE Systems munitions factory in Glascoed, Monmouthshire shortly before 10.50am.
MailOnline understands the explosion relates to a single shell going off at the munitions filling factory, run by BAE, Europe’s biggest military contractor.
Emergency services were deployed to the site, which is spread across a large field close to the south-eastern village; locals say the blast ‘wasn’t loud, but felt like an earthquake’.
BAE Systems has promised a full investigation into the incident at the factory, which is the UK’s last remaining munitions filling factory.

“We Don’t Discuss Tactics…or the Way We Operate” – WOW! More Than 8 Months Later, The FBI Tells Media to Pound Sand, REFUSES to Say Why They Killed Disabled Veteran Theodore Deschler in Pre-Dawn Raid By Cristina Laila
Apr. 20, 2024 4:30 pm – It has been more than 8 months since the FBI killed disabled veteran Theodore Deschler in a pre-dawn raid at his mother’s Tennessee home and they are refusing to provide any details about the case.
The Tennessee Star reached out to the FBI this week for answers about the deadly raid. The FBI told them to pound sand.
“We don’t discuss tactics, techniques or the way we operate,” Memphis FBI Chief Division Counsel and Public Affairs Officer Joel Siskovic said to The Tennessee Star. “That’s not a question we would ever answer.”
The Tennessee Star reported:
More than eight months after a raid that left a Henderson man dead, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) won’t disclose details about the case, while the local police department says they weren’t made aware of the raid until after it happened.
FBI agents shot and killed Theodore Deschler (pictured above) at his mother’s home where he lived in August of last year.
The circumstances surrounding his death remain murky. This week, The Tennessee Star followed up with the law enforcement entities involved in the deadly raid, but details remain hard to come by.
The Star asked the FBI what transpired before Theodore Deschler’s death.
“We don’t discuss tactics, techniques or the way we operate,” Memphis FBI Chief Division Counsel and Public Affairs Officer Joel Siskovic said. “That’s not a question we would ever answer.”
Siskovic said the FBI never discusses operations like the raid on Theodore Deschler’s home and that the only way to obtain more information is through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.
The family is also desperately seeking answers after FBI agents busted down the door to Bonnie Deschler’s home and killed her son Theodore Deschler in front of her in a pre-dawn raid last August.
The FBI is refusing to tell Bonnie Deschler why they showed up in armored vehicles at 6 am on August 16, pulled her out of the house, tossed her into the back of a police vehicle, and fatally shot her unarmed son.
“It’s none of your business!” FBI agents told her after they blew up her house and killed her son.
According to WBBJ, FBI agents showed up at Bonnie Deschler’s home in Henderson, Tennessee to serve her son Theodore an arrest warrant when things turned deadly.
A neighbor told WBBJ he woke up at 6 am after he heard a loud bang.
“I was woken up at about six o’clock this morning. I heard a loud bang. Then I heard a couple more. I heard the loudspeakers, ‘Come out with your hands up. We’re the FBI. We’re not going anywhere.’ Before I knew it, I was coming out to see what was going on and watched them bust out their windows,” a neighbor told WBBJ.
Theodore’s family believes he was unarmed when the agents busted down the door and threw flashbangs into the home.
“It was a senseless act. You know Teddy was a 100% disabled veteran. He had problems. He had severe PTSD. He had depression but he was getting help for it but this was senseless. He didn’t have a weapon on him. He was just trying to get out of the house because it was filled with tear gas,” Theodore’s mother Bonnie told WBBJ.
The house was destroyed by tear gas, flashbangs and bullets. Most of the windows were busted out.
According to Bonnie Deschler, her son was unarmed and standing in the doorway when he was killed by FBI agents.
“You couldn’t see. The height of the door and where Teddy was standing when they shot him and killed him, you couldn’t see if he was armed or not and you know he wasn’t. Because if you look at the door you could see where his hands were full of blood and went down the door. Well if he had a weapon in his hand…,” Bonnie Deschler told WBBJ.
The FBI-involved shooting is currently under investigation so the family is in the dark about the details of the raid.
According to Fox News, in a previously unreported detail, Theodore Deschler “was arrested as a suspect following a gas station stabbing in a nearby town, according to the Selmer Police Department.”
Details of the stabbing, which occurred in May just a few months before the FBI raid are unclear.
It is also unclear if there are any charges stemming from the stabbing or if the FBI raid was connected to the incident.

WATCH: Democrat Representatives Wave Ukrainian Flags on House Floor After Voting to Give Them Another $60.8 Billion By Cassandra Macdonald
Apr. 20, 2024 2:00 pm – Democrat members of Congress waved Ukrainian flags on the House floor after voting to give them another $60.8 billion in taxpayer funds.
The $95.3 billion foreign aid package funds Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan — with nothing for Americans.
On Saturday, the package was approved 311-112 with all of the “nay” votes from Republicans.
“Ukrainian flags fly in the chamber of the UNITED STATES House of Representatives as they vote to send more of your hard-earned money to a corrupt foreign regime. And just like that they shout ‘UKRAINE! UKRAINE!’ while happily working to secure Ukraine’s borders, not ours,” Senator Rand Paul wrote in a post on X.
“Put those damn flags away!” Rep. Anna Paulina Luna said.
Republicans on X were quick to blast the lawmakers for waving foreign flags on the floor of our Congress.

“U.S. Representatives are waiving Ukrainian flags on the house floor right now. They are TRAITORS!” political commentator and National Committeewoman for the DC Young Republicans, Kingsley Wilson, wrote.
“Waiving foreign flags on the House floor? This is what a nation that has been conquered looks like,” Blaze TV host Lauren Chen wrote.

BREAKING: House RINOS Pass Mike Johnson’s Biden Backed $95 BILLION in Foreign Aid Bills Including ADDITIONAL $60.84 BILLION to Ukraine – Here Are The RINOs Who Voted to Fund Conflicts Oceans Away By Jordan Conradson
Apr. 20, 2024 1:31 pm – The House of Representatives on Saturday passed three bills to hand out money to Ukraine, Israel, Gaza, and other non-U.S. involved conflict zones around the world.
The Democrats waved Ukranian flags on the floor of the United States House of Representatives as they voted to send $60 BILLION of taxpayer money to secure a foreign border.
In the last month, Republicans under Speaker Mike Johnson’s leadership have given up a $1.2 trillion spending bill with more support from Democrats than Republicans, reauthorization for warrantless searches of Americans under FISA Section 702, and now this.
As a result, Reps. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Paul Gosar (R-AZ) recently announced that they will co-sponsor Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA) Motion to Vacate the Chair and remove Mike Johnson as Speaker.
As Gold Prices Hit Record Highs, One 12-Page Pamphlet Tells the Story of God, Gold and Glory
President Trump on Thursday came out in opposition to the foreign aid package demanding that Europe equalize America’s contributions to Ukraine’s war–in Europe. “Why is it that the United States is over $100 Billion Dollars into the Ukraine War more than Europe, and we have an Ocean between us as separation!” said Trump in a scathing Truth Social post.
This comes after President Trump aired similar sentiments in a press conference with Speaker Johnson last week. He noted that “we keep handing out gifts of billions and billions of dollars” and called on Europe to give money to equalize America’s aid contributions. Trump also stated that he wanted to see Mike Johnson and Republicans in Congress attach loan terms to the aid we’re providing.
However, as The Gateway Pundit reported that the “loan” structure in the package Mike Johnson announced Wednesday includes FULL LOAN FORGIVENESS!
the package Johnson announced Wednesday includes terms that will allow the President to cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt after November 15, 2024 and the remaining 50% after January 1, 2024. It’s no wonder why Joe Biden came out “strongly” in support of the package, urging the House and Senate to pass it.
This means that after President Trump wins the 2024 election, as expected, Joe Biden can cancel 50% of Ukraine’s debt before his term ends in January. However, if Biden and the Democrats pull off another stolen election, they can forgive 100% of Ukraine’s debt a little over one year later. This isn’t a loan. It’s a handout.
“I will sign this into law immediately to send a message to the world,” said Joe Biden in a statement urging Democrats in the House and the Democrat-controlled Senate to pass the un-American legislation.
Revised Section 702 Surveillance Authority Poses More Danger Than Ever J.D. TUCCILLE
New language could make almost anybody with access to a WiFi router help the government snoop.
4.18.2024 4:45 PM – At press time, the U.S. Senate is debating whether to not only renew the U.S. government’s spying powers under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) but dramatically expand them. That’s because the House, in reauthorizing the expiring powers last week after an extended battle, adopted language that broadens the definition of those who can be forced to help the government snoop. That leaves the Senate as the last check on already controversial legislation that just became more dangerous before it’s signed by a president eager to exercise its power.
Unchecked Surveillance Authority
“The legislation coming from the House gives the government unchecked authority to order millions of Americans to spy on behalf of the government,” warns Sen. Ron Wyden (D–Ore.). “Under current law—section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act—the government can order the telephone companies and email and internet service providers to hand over communications. This bill expands that power dramatically. It says that the government can force cooperation from, quote, ‘any other service provider who has access to equipment that is being or may be used to transmit or store wire or electronic communications.'”
The problem, point out privacy advocates, is that even before the House of Representatives debated the provisions of the Reforming Intelligence and Securing America Act (RISAA)—rejecting (on a tie vote) a requirement that government agents get a warrant before searching records about Americans, and ultimately settling on a two-year renewal of surveillance powers—members of the House Intelligence Committee inserted new and troubling language.
Their intention, according to Charlie Savage of The New York Times, was to clarify that cloud-computing data centers must cooperate with government spooks. But that’s not what they confined themselves to in their changes to the text. As Wyden emphasizes, the bill now broadly applies to service providers with access to communication equipment. After much protest, exceptions were written in for hotels, restaurants, dwellings, and community centers. But everybody else is subject to the law.
Everyone Is a Spy
“An enormous range of businesses would still be fair game,” protests a coalition of privacy, civil liberties, and civil rights groups in a letter to Senate leadership from both parties, “including grocery stores, department stores, hardware stores, laundromats, barber shops, fitness centers, and—perhaps most disturbingly—commercial landlords that rent out the office space where tens of millions of Americans go to work every day, including news media headquarters, political campaign offices, advocacy and grassroots organizations, lobbying firms, and law offices.”
The coalition, which includes groups of widely varying political views, refers to this language as the “Everyone Is a Spy” provision, since potentially anybody with access to a laptop or WiFi router could be compelled to help the government conduct surveillance. Given how broadly the word access can be defined, that might even include cable installers, repairmen, and house cleaners.
“If this became law, millions of American small business owners would have a legal obligation to hand over data that runs through their equipment,” caution former Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R–Va.) and former Sen. Mark Udall (D–Colo.), both now with the Project for Privacy and Surveillance Accountability. “And when they’re done with doing their part in mass surveillance, these small businesses would then be placed under a gag order to hide their activities from their customers.”

Report: US deployed microwave missiles that can disable Iran’s nuclear facilities
Mary Lou Robinson, former chief of the Air Force’s High Power Microwave Division, confirmed to DailyMail.com that the missiles are “ready to take out any military target, including nuclear facilities.”
04-20-2024 11:31 (Israel Hayom) – According to an exclusive report from DailyMail.com, the US Air Force has quietly deployed a new type of missile that can destroy the electronics of Iran’s nuclear facilities using high-power microwaves, without causing any fatalities.
The missiles, known as the Counter-Electronics High Power Microwave Advanced Missile Project (CHAMP), were developed by Boeing’s Phantom Works for the US Air Force Research Laboratory. After successful testing in 2012, around 20 of these microwave missiles became operational and were deployed to various locations around the globe in 2019.
As DailyMail.com reports, the CHAMP missiles are air-launched cruise missiles fitted with an electromagnetic pulse cannon that generates a concentrated beam of high-power microwave energy. This energy can fry the computer chips and electronic systems of targeted facilities, rendering them inoperable.
“We hit every target we wanted to,” said Boeing’s CHAMP Program Manager Keith Colman after the successful 2012 test, adding “Today we made science fiction into science fact.”
Mary Lou Robinson, former chief of the Air Force’s High Power Microwave Division, confirmed to DailyMail.com that the missiles are “ready to take out any military target, including nuclear facilities.”
The key advantage of these microwave weapons is that they can penetrate buried bunkers and command centers through electrical and communications connections, disabling electronics without causing structural damage or loss of life. “The beauty of the HPM missile is that its microwave beam can penetrate bunkers where facilities are hidden without harming humans inside,” DailyMail.com reports.
They also have the ability to disable defensive radar systems, striking their targets undetected. “Most amazing of all, the missile renders inoperable any radar that might detect it as it flies to and from a target. Thus, a country cannot take out CHAMP before it strikes and has no way of knowing why its facilities have suddenly gone dead,” according to DailyMail.com.
While details are limited due to operational security concerns, the existence of this operational microwave missile capability highlights the stealthy options available to the US military to counter threats like Iran’s nuclear program through electronic disruption rather than kinetic force.
