COMMENTARY / OPINION
Did Iran attack Israel with assurances from Biden? By Ken Timmerman
April 17, 2024
Normally I don’t cover breaking news, but this is too important.
I was wrong.
I believed the Iranians would not attack Israel directly as they had been threatening, because such an attack would green-light an Israeli response on the Iranian homeland that would be devastating for the Islamic regime.
I reasoned that the extraordinary coordination among U.S. and Israeli officials late last week signaled a potential joint U.S.-Israeli counterstrike should Iran’s leaders be so reckless as to attack Israel.
I said that publicly in my regular newsletter on April 5. A few days later, Israeli minister without portfolio, Benny Ganz, said it on Israeli TV. (In case you missed it, Benny Ganz is the “moderate” Israeli politician Biden & Co. are trying to maneuver into position to replace Bibi.)
Both of us were wrong.
I believed that Israel would strike back against Iran with such devastating force – potentially, in a joint counter-strike with the U.S. against Iranian nuclear facilities – that it would reveal the regime’s weakness.
Iranian air defenses would show themselves incapable of shooting down a single U.S. or Israeli plane, a fact that would become immediately obvious. An Israeli counterstrike would make the regime appear weak in the eyes of the Iranian people.
And that is something regime leaders cannot allow to happen. They cannot appear weak, because then they will fall.
On Sunday morning, I woke up in the south of France to the extraordinary news that Iran had defied all expectations and launched 170 drones, 30 cruise missiles, and more than 100 ballistic missiles against Israel.
Even more extraordinary were the results: Israel announced that along with its allies, it had knocked out all 170 drones and 30 cruise missiles before they even reached Israeli airspace, and intercepted 99% of the ballistic missiles, many of them in exo-atmospheric kills that showered shrapnel across the Negev desert, severely wounding a 7-year Bedouin girl who lived near the Netarim Air Force base, where Israel’s fleet of F-35 fighters is based.
But here is the key: Israel alone did not thwart the Iranian attack. The United States, the UK, Jordan, and even France sent their pilots aloft to intercept incoming drones and cruise missiles before they reached Israel, with the U.S. Central Command coordinating that response.
And that international assistance appears to have a come at a price: President Biden publicly warned Prime Minister Netanyahu on Sunday that the thwarted Iranian attack on Israel was it. The U.S. would not support an Israeli strike against Iran in response.
Israel took out Iranian military commanders illicitly using a diplomatic facility in Damascus on April 1; Iran retaliated against Israeli territory in a strike that killed no Israeli two weeks later. Strike, counter-strike. Game over.
As the former U.S. National Intelligence Officer for Iran, Norman Roule, told CNN on Sunday, the Iranian attack on Israel “erased all the red lines.”
Extraordinary.

Plagues – past, present and future By Michael Kuttner
April 22, 2024
Why was this night different from all other nights?
Instead of a restful and peaceful night’s sleep, we were roused from our slumber at approximately 1.30am by a series of loud explosions. Looking out from our bedroom window, we beheld an eerie sight reminiscent of a Star Wars movie. Streaking across the night sky were innumerable illuminated orange objects which all seemed to disintegrate and explode. I guessed that they were the Iranian drones which had been launched from Iran. There had been reports earlier in the evening of a possible drone strike.
Within a few minutes, the air raid sirens wailed, and unaware whether missiles were heading in our direction, it was a mad dash for our local communal air raid shelter only about 30 seconds from our home. The sirens ceased almost immediately which indicated that nothing was heading our way. Drones were still flying but obviously posed no lethal threat.
By this time, everyone in the country was up and monitoring the news, and needless to say, mobile phones were being used to check up on family and friends. Getting back to sleep proved to be a difficult exercise especially for those glued to the breaking news developments.
It was only the next day that one had time to think about the unfolding events and draw some conclusions.
I predicted that it would take no more than a couple of hours for all the usual crowd to warn Israel not to retaliate, to show restraint and allow “diplomacy” to deal with the terrorist regime in Iran.
Pesach (Passover) is, therefore, an ideal time to remember how our ancestors dealt with past tyrants whose agenda included ethnic cleansing, murder, enslavement, kidnapping and murder. The exodus from Egyptian bondage only occurred after an escalating series of plagues and diplomatic negotiations with Pharaoh. His attempt to kill all Hebrew male babies at birth failed thanks to the heroic efforts of the midwives who thwarted this pogrom. Moses and Aaron did try to negotiate an exit strategy but this failed in the face of a stubborn refusal to agree on the part of the Egyptian leader.
POLL: How A Real Indictment Against Donald J. Trump Would Read 2ND SMARTEST GUY IN THE WORLD
MAR 26, 2024 – This Substack is vehemently apolitical, and considers the left vs right Kabuki theater paradigm a grand distraction of the criminally corrupt corporate plantation Uniparty. While the Marxist Dems are far more pernicious and utterly disgusting in their overtly communist Cloward-Piven identity politrix policies and general demeanor, the RINOS are in some ways vastly more dangerous in their traitorous duplicities.
This Substack has very mixed feelings about Donald J. Trump, especially since his murderous Operation Warp Speed rollout and unrelenting DEATHVAX™ support, his pardoning of all the wrong criminals (e.g. Jared Kushner’s guilty and deranged father), yet not granting clemency to heroes like Assange and Snowden, his bringing some of the vilest swamp creatures into his cabinet, never building that wall, sending a continuous flow of arms to Ukraine despite the 2014 CIA coup, and so on and so forth.
On the other hand, Trump pulled America out of the PSYOP-CLIMATE-CHANGE Paris Accords, rid the nation of the scandalous Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), officially started zero new wars, created a badly needed surge in oil production, and made excellent economic decisions that directly led to far greater overall prosperity.
But what exactly would a detailed and granular indictment of Trump look like?
- COUNT 1: The Accused failed to order a thorough investigation of multiple shooters at and Deep State involvement in the October 1, 2017, Las Vegas shooting and, instead, acted to curtail Second Amendment rights by banning bump stocks.
- COUNT 2: The Accused failed to dismiss certain federal officials who (a) committed criminal acts and/or
- (b) failed or refused to fulfill their oaths of office, including, but not limited to Jeff Sessions, Mark Milley, Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, William Barr, and Christopher Wray.
- COUNT 3: The Accused failed to build a wall along the U.S. southern border to protect against unlawful entry/invasion by foreign persons even though the Supreme Court, in Irump v. Sierra Club, 19A60 July 26, 2019), specifically authorized the Accused to use $6 billion of Defense funds to construct such a wall.
- COUNT 4: The Accused failed or refused to release records disclosing criminal involvement by the U.S. government in certain events, including, but not limited to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and the Oklahoma City Bombing and 9/11 attacks (together involving the mass murder of 3,164 persons).
- COUNT 5: The Accused failed to protect persons, property, and civil liberties by refusing to invoke the Insurrection and/or RICO Acts against BLM and Antifa rioters who caused S2 billion in damages and at least 25 deaths across the nation in the summer of 2020.
- COUNT 6: The Accused locked-down the U.S. economy in 2020, causing immeasurable and long-term financial and societal damage, solely on account of an alleged cold virus with a Case Fatality Rate of 0.1%.
- COUNT 7: The Accused advocated for and implemented “Operation Warp Speed”, the deadliest bioweapon attack in human history.
- COUNT 8: The Accused failed to act, as head of the executive branch, to protect the integrity of the 2020 federal general election, resulting in stolen elections for Congress and the Presidency and, consequently, in the loss of our republican form of government.
- COUNT 9: The Accused failed to remove U.S. troops and vast quantities of military equipment from Afghanistan before leaving office and before transferring command authority to a known usurper, resulting in the prompt and foreseeable loss in that country of American lives and treasure.
- COUNT 10: The Accused lured nearly a million American patriots to the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, for a Reichstag fire- style setup/criminal entrapment that resulted in (1) imprisonment of many “]6” protesters (who the Accused refused to pardon) and (2) a nationwide suppression of political opposition.
IRAN ATTACKS ISRAEL DIRECTLY HUGE MISTAKE [5:52] Avi Abelow

The final sellout? Uniparty devils sending $95 billion to corrupt foreign governments – $300 million goes to prevent Ukrainians from escaping military draft by fleeing to Poland LEO HOHMANN
America is all but conquered and this is just the latest evidence.
APR 21, 2024 – The House voted on Saturday to betray America and American interests. As sellouts go, this was a big one, even by Washington Uniparty standards, as these members of Congress basically flipped their collective middle finger at America’s working poor and its increasingly struggling middle class.
These globalist sycophants, led by the globalist Speaker Mike Johnson, passed three separate foreign-aid bills that will provide funding to Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan, transferring a total of $95 billion from the U.S. Treasury directly to foreign governments. The massive foreign-aid package now heads to the Senate, where it will be rubber-stamped and signed by Joe Biden.
According to Just the News, the Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act was passed 311-112. The bill contains $61 billion for Ukraine.
This bill is not only anti-American, it’s anti-Ukrainian. Even more so, it’s anti-human because it will result in many more dead Ukrainians and Russians.
Included in the package is $300 million to protect Ukraine’s border with Poland. This $300 million will be used to keep Ukrainians from fleeing into Poland to escape the military draft, which sends them into the meatgrinder and certain death at the front with a superior Russian military. No matter how hard they try to serve it up on a pretty platter, it doesn’t get any more evil than this.
Watch Steve Poplar’s report on the bill below.
Democrats cheered after the foreign-aid bills were passed, according to CNN. Some celebrated by raising Ukrainian flags in the House chamber.
The House then passed the Israel Security Supplemental with a vote of 366-58. It contains $26.4 billion to aid Israel. Taiwan will get $8 billion.
Some of House Speaker Mike Johnson’s GOP colleagues have threatened to oust him as speaker if he moved forward with Ukraine aid. He ignored them. Johnson is now so popular with Democrats that some say they will prevent Republicans from ousting him.
Congressman Thomas Massie, R-Ky., told reporters, according to The Washington Post:
“To send $100 billion overseas without reinforcing our own borders shows that we put America last.”
Ya think?
Massie and Rep. Paul Gosar, R-Ariz., have cosponsored a motion introduced by Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s to vacate the office of the Speaker, while Democrats including Tom Suozzi of New York and Jared Moskowitz of Florida have pledged to save Johnson if that attempt to oust him arrives, according to the New York Post.
Congressman Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., on Thursday called the foreign aid package that funds the Ukraine war “America Last.”
I would call it something even worse: America’s betrayal.
King Deep State Sits on a Stolen Throne By J.B. Shurk
April 21, 2024 – All hail King Deep State! That is essentially what we have now, is it not? An unelected, all-powerful, mercurial king — and certainly not a binding constitution limiting government’s authority and preserving Americans’ rights.
Our First Amendment forbids Congress from restricting an individual’s free speech, but that hasn’t stopped King Deep State from conspiring with Big Tech to silence every voice deemed offensive to the realm. Our Fourth Amendment forbids nosy officials from poking around in Americans’ private records and communications without first securing particularized warrants establishing probable cause that a crime has been committed, but that hasn’t stopped King Deep State from rummaging through our emails, text messages, and bank statements or eavesdropping on our intimate phone conversations in the name of “national security.” Our Second Amendment forbids the government from infringing the people’s right to keep and bear arms, but that hasn’t stopped King Deep State from restricting gun purchases, tracking gun owners, and disarming those he doesn’t like. The Bill of Rights doesn’t mean much when King Deep State uses it as royal toilet paper. Perhaps it should be renamed, “The Bill of Humble Suggestions, Should His Most Excellent Majesty Approve…or Require Some Gentle Two-Ply.”
If the first step to recovery is admitting that we have a problem, then let’s be honest with ourselves: this is no longer a country of, by, or for the people. It is an imperial stompy-foot of, by, and for “elites.” A private central bank decrees the value of our dollars. Covert espionage agencies advance secret foreign policies in our name. The Pentagon conducts illicit foreign wars for our alleged benefit. The National Security Agency monitors what we privately tell each other. King Deep State’s Silicon Valley vassals tell us what we can publicly say out loud. The Fascist Bureau of Intimidation decides when dissidents’ doors must be broken down. The king’s obedient press corps prints only pre-approved news. The Supreme Court holds up a wet finger in the Deep State’s manufactured winds to determine which rights we may temporarily retain. And a small contingent of multinational investment firms and industrial behemoths write the bills and budgets that the people’s pretend representatives in Congress never read but obligingly pass.
[Ed.: It’s kind of an inversion of the story of The King’s New Clothes, where the king is invisible, and we can only see the clothes!]
CHAPTER 15: Conflict Theory and the Hegelian Dialectic by Linda Goudsmit
Space Is No Longer the Final Frontier—Reality Is (forthcoming release May 2024)
April 21, 2024 – Globalism is a replacement ideology that seeks to reorder the world into one singular, planetary Unistate, ruled by the globalist elite. The globalist war on nation-states cannot succeed without collapsing the United States of America. The long-term strategic attack plan moves America incrementally from constitutional republic to socialism to globalism to feudalism. The tactical attack plan uses asymmetric psychological and informational warfare to destabilize Americans and drive society out of objective reality into the madness of subjective reality. America’s children are the primary target of the globalist predators.
In order to fully understand the synergistic and catastrophic effects of race wars and Outcome-Based Education’s third stage, Transformational Education (Chapter 12), it is necessary to understand that conflict theory is both the fulcrum and the facilitator of Marxism and its various species.
Conflict theory is a derivative of Malthusianism. Thomas Malthus (1766–1834), English economist and demographer, published his famous theory on population in 1798, An Essay on the Principle of Population. Malthus applied supply-and-demand economic theory to food-population ratios and ultimately to societal conflict. Malthus theorized that population grows exponentially and food supplies grow arithmetically; therefore, population would necessarily outstrip food resources and eventually result in conflict.
German philosopher Karl Marx (1818–1883) had a broader view of conflict. Marx believed that society exists in a perpetual state of conflict over competition for all resources, not just food. He focused on the conflict between social classes over those resources. Marx identified the wealthy bourgeoisie as oppressors, and the working-class poor as oppressed. Marxist conflict theory assumes that human beings act in their own self-interest, that the resources they seek are limited, and that the pursuit of limited resources necessarily leads to societal conflict.
Marx was also influenced by German philosopher Georg Hegel (1770–1831), whose philosophy rejects objective reality and disdains the individual. Instead, Hegel posits that
society evolved and progressed in accordance with the laws of “dialectic,” a cyclical pattern in which one prevailing idea/worldview (thesis) comes into conflict with an opposing idea/worldview (antithesis), and by means of that conflict causes a new, more meritorious creation (synthesis) to emerge. Marx believed that through this process, society would eventually move past capitalist economics—as it had previously moved past feudalism—and embrace socialism and communism.

Passover Guide for the Perplexed 2024 Ambassador (ret.) Yoram Ettinger
April 17, 2024
1. Passover (April 22-30, 2024) is a Jewish national liberation holiday, highlighting the Exodus, the Parting of the Sea, the Ten Commandments, the 40-year-wandering in the desert, and the reentry to the Land of Israel 3,600 years ago.
2. The Abolitionist and human rights movements were spurred by the Passover Exodus. For example, in 1850, Harriet Tubman, who was one of the leaders of the “Underground Railroad” – an Exodus of Afro-American slaves to freedom – was known as “Mama Moses.” Moreover, on December 11, 1964, upon accepting the Nobel Prize, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said: “The Bible tells the thrilling story of how Moses stood in Pharaoh’s court centuries ago and cried, ‘Let my people go!’” Furthermore, Paul Robeson and Louis Armstrong leveraged the liberty theme of Passover through the lyrics: “When Israel was in Egypt’s land, let my people go! Oppressed so hard they could not stand, let my people go! Go down Moses, way down in Egypt’s land; tell old Pharaoh to let my people go….!”
3. The US Founding Fathers were inspired by the Exodus, in particular, and the Mosaic legacy, in general, shaping the Federalist system, including the concepts of (anti-monarchy) limited government, separation of powers among three co-equal branches of government, featuring Congress, as the most powerful legislature in the world. Thomas Paine’s Common Sense – “the cement of the 1776 Revolution” – referred to King George III as “the hardened, sullen-tempered Pharaoh of England.” And, the Early Pilgrims considered their 10-week-sail in the Atlantic ocean as “the modern day Parting of the Sea,” and their destination as “the modern day Promised Land” and “the New Israel.”
4. The US Founding Fathers deemed it appropriate to engrave the essence of the Biblical role model of liberty (the Passover-related Jubilee) on the Liberty Bell: “Proclaim liberty throughout all the land, unto all the inhabitants thereof (Leviticus, 25:10).” The Jubilee is commemorated every 50 years, and the Liberty Bell was installed in 1751 upon the 50th anniversary of William Penn’s Charter of Privileges.
- Moreover, there are 50 States in the United States, whose Hebrew name is “The States of the Covenant” (Artzot Habreet –ארצות הברית ). Also, the Exodus is mentioned 50 times in the Five Books of Moses; Moses received (on Mount Sinai) the Torah – which includes 50 gates of wisdom – 50 days following the Exodus, as celebrated by the Shavou’ot/Pentecost Holiday, 50 days following Passover.
- 5. According to Heinrich Heine, the 19th century German poet, “Since the Exodus, freedom has always spoken with a Hebrew accent.”
- 6. According to the late Prof. Yehudah Elitzur, one of Israel’s pioneers of Biblical research, the Exodus took place in the second half of the 15th century BCE, during the reign of Egypt’s Amenhotep II. Accordingly, the 40-year-national coalescing of the Jewish people – while wandering in the desert – took place when Egypt was ruled by Thutmose IV. Then, Joshua conquered Canaan when Egypt was ruled by Amenhotep III and Amenhotep IV, who were preoccupied with domestic affairs to the extent that they refrained from expansionist ventures. Moreover, as documented by letters which were discovered in Tel el Amarna, the capital city of ancient Egypt, the 14th century BCE Pharaoh, Amenhotep IV, was informed by the rulers of Jerusalem, Samaria and other parts of Canaan, about a military offensive launched by the “Habirus” (Hebrews and other Semitic tribes), which corresponded to the timing of Joshua’s offensive against the same rulers. Amenhotep IV was a determined reformer, who introduced monotheism, possibly influenced by the ground-breaking and game-changing legacy of Moses and the Exodus.
7. Passover aims at coalescing the fabrics of the Jewish family and the Jewish people, commemorating and strengthening Jewish roots, and enhancing core values such as faith, humility, education, defiance of odds, can-do mentality, optimism, and patriotism, which are prerequisites to a free and vibrant society.
[Ed.: Passover begins at sundown Monday, April 22, 2024, and ends at sundown Tuesday, April 30, 2024. For additional details about Passover see: https://www.chabad.org/holidays/passover/default_cdo/jewish/Passover-Pesach.htm]
BOMBS AWAY – ISRAEL HITS IRAN [VIDEO 8:09] Tom Nash written by David Mark
April 20, 2024 – Israel allegedly bombed the Iranian air defenses In Isfahan, near the Natanz nuclear site Thursday-Friday in an overnight mission.
While details are still coming out, it seems that Israel that the target of the Israeli attack was a military base and radar statio in Isfahan near the Natanz nuclear facility, but not the nuclear facility itself. Althought it was only one site that was attacked, the site was attacked several times.
Israel used radar evading missiles seemingly launched from inside Iraq (probably Kurdistan) and UAVs launched either Iranian Kurdistan or Azeri areas in northwest Iran.
While the Israeli attack was not designed to start a direct shooting war with Iran, it was a clear retaliation for Iran’s attack on Israel. Besides that the attack accomplished a few things. Firstly, it proved that the Russian-made air defense systems in place do not work. Secondly, it showed that Israel can take out Iran’s nuclear facilities at any time. Thirdly, and perhaps the most important, Iran’s Islamic regime does not have the grip over Iran they want everyone to believe.
By enlisting the Kurds and Azeris both in neighboring Iraq and inside Iran itself to attack the Mullahs, Israel has revealed that it too has proxies and those proxies have real teeth. The attack was carried out on the Ayatollah’s 85th birthday - the ultimate gift to the aging despot.
With the retaliation out of the way, the IDF can focus on strengthening its control over Gaza, conquering Rafah, and preparing for an all out war with Hezbollah, Syria, and the Shiite militias.

No Go Zones ROBERT W MALONE MD, MS
Conspiracy Theory Fact or Fiction?
APR 20, 2024 – No-go zones, as the term is most commonly used today, are areas within cities where it is unsafe to enter if one is not Muslim. Within these areas, the authorities have lost control. Police, emergency services, and other non-residents are either barred from entering or consider it unsafe and won’t enter. In Europe and UK, such areas are spreading rapidly due to massive immigration campaigns.
The term “no go zone” has often been associated with people accused of spreading “right-wing” conspiracies. This is because government officials and their mainstream media apologists usually deny the existence of such areas. This denialism began in earnest over a decade ago, and then as the narrative scaffolding was set since then, mainstream media has taken this as de-facto truth. But the reality is completely different.
A decade ago, such zones were hotly denied by officials. In fact, the city of Paris threatened to sue Fox News in 2015 for reporting on the existence of such areas within the city limits. State-Sponsored media sources, such as The Guardian – to this day- write that the use of the term “no go zone” is just another way the “right” stoke anti-immigration “fears” and anti-Muslim hate. Because of such push-back, the term “no go zones” became a hot-button term used only by the brave and the stupid almost a decade ago. But what was touted as another “right-wing” conspiracy theory that promoted populism,* racism, and anti-immigration hate – has come to be a real phenomenon throughout Europe.
Despite the rhetoric by both city officials and the liberal press, there is plenty of evidence that such zones exist and that they are growing in number.
Below is the typical fact-checker response to the query of asking for a definition of a “No Go Zone”. Of note, almost all of these factcheck and news articles debunking no-go zones are at least five years old, but rise to the top and first page of GoogleNet search engines:

Hamas controls the streets of Europe Giulio Meotti
When I defined Belgium as “Europe’s first Muslim state” a year ago, it was not hyperbole. Opinion.
Apr 19, 2024, 5:29 PM (GMT+3) – Everything is going just great.
Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh will visit Recep Tayip Erdogan in Turkey, who wants to be sultan but is also head of the second largest NATO army.
Speaking of NATO, which has its headquarters in Brussels…
Three locations changed in 48 hours and then the suspension by the police. Thus ended the meeting of European conservatives scheduled for Brussels, organized by the Edmund Burke Foundation and the Israeli philosopher Yoram Hazony. The Belgian police announced the revocation of the permits and set the seal for the immediate closure of the National Conservatism conference for “public order reasons” (it took a judge for the doors to be reopened). As if it were a crime scene.
It was not a meeting of fascists. Among the speakers, the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, the former head of the German secret service Hans-Georg Maasen, the Israeli Minister for the Diaspora Amichai Chikli, the former English Interior Minister Suella Braverman, the former Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Moroawiecki , the French conservative leader Eric Zemmour, the Brexit leader Nigel Farage (whose bank account was also closed in England for political dissent, as if we were in the USSR), scholars and intellectuals such as Frank Furedi and Melanie Phillips.
The socialist mayor of Brussels, Philippe Close, had refused to make a space available and the event was moved to a hotel in the neighborhood near the EU institutions. Then a further change at Claridge’s in the center of Brussels after the interference of the mayor of Etterbeck who put pressure on the Sofitel hotel to cancel the conference.
In practice, the entire European capital was committed to ensuring that nothing different was said about Islam, immigration and the fate of Western civilization. Writes Ayaan Hirsi Ali: “Radical Islamists manipulate incredibly naive Western liberals”.

Biden, it was you! Shari Goodman
It was not Donald Trump who made the terrible mistakes listed below. It was you, President Biden, you alone! Op-ed.
Apr 18, 2024, 8:43 PM (GMT+3) – In previous decades it was customary for sitting Presidents to refrain from berating and criticizing the work of previous presidents, but Joe Biden has never been one to engage in human niceties; thus, from the onset of his presidency he has relentlessly scapegoated President Trump to deflect criticism of his nearly four years of failed leadership.
However, with a Presidential election six month away, it is time to highlight Biden’s failed policies and lay blame where it belongs….at the feet of the current occupier of the White House.
Dear President Biden:
It was not President Trump who refused to enforce our immigration laws. It was YOU!
It was not President Trump who opened our southern border to 10 million illegals from across the globe. By erasing President Trump’s Executive Order, worked out with Mexico, to house illegals there, it was you, Biden, who is responsible for the entry of drug cartels, criminals, gang members, rapists, and terrorists from enemy countries into our collective home. It was YOU!
It was not President Trump who secretly and illegally flew 325,000 illegals from across the globe to cities across the U.S. at taxpayers’ expense. It was YOU
It was not President Trump who allowed CCP affiliated military age men to enter our collective home illegally. It was YOU!
It was not President Trump who erased our energy independence by shutting down the Alaska Pipeline and making us once again energy dependent on foreign sources. It was YOU!

Cool hand, Bibi Jack Engelhard
Israel has a moral duty to send Iran a message…a real message. How? By going after its proxy…Hamas. Opinion.
Apr 19, 2024, 5:51 PM (GMT+3) – Smart move to keep the Mullahs guessing and in suspense. The rest of the world is also waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Or has it?
I am braced for the usual criticisms from Bibi-haters, and mine own accusers, but I will go on. First, though, some old business.
Glenn Greenwald, the prominent commentator, appeared on Megyn Kelly’s podcast where he surprised her, and me, with overheated denunciations against Israel. I used to think he was a good guy. Obviously, I hadn’t been paying attention. Neither, Megyn, who is as pro-Israel as it gets. She won’t talk to me ever since I wrote a book about her. My loss. But in my book, or any book, she is a sweetheart.
So Greenwald comes on to say, feverishly, that Israel receives four billion dollars in aid from the United States, yearly, which is far more than any other country ever sees.
Such wild misinformation comes from a black heart. Over some three years, Glenn, the United States has spent more than $100 billion for Ukraine.
If you say that is not technically foreign aid, so what is it…Monopoly money? Afghanistan…one trillion dollars, plus American blood. For NATO, tens of billions every year.
I could continue, but enough, and time for the topic at hand.
