China Humiliated as Tourist Discovers Source of Country’s Renowned Waterfall   By Allison Anton  

June 7, 2024 at 7:55am – China has earned something of an international reputation as the world leader in shoddy frauds.

Online retailers such as Wish and Temu are known for selling knockoffs and counterfeit products that originated there.

But, though its consumer goods might not be wholly genuine, one would think that China’s national landmarks, at least, would be the real thing.

Well, apparently not, as a tourist found out when scaling Asia’s highest waterfall.

In a video shared by the South China Morning Post on Thursday, a hiker climbed to the top of the Yuntai Mountain waterfall in China’s Hunan province, which is more than 1,000 feet tall.

When he arrived there, he found that most of the water for the falls was provided by a series of rusty pipes, which almost no effort had been made to disguise.

The U.K.’s Independent reported that the video exposing this deception was originally posted on the Chinese social media platform Douyin, where it garnered more than 48,000 views.

In response, the park posted an apology and explanation for the deception, with a statement written in the voice of the waterfall.

“In order to enrich your visiting experience and make your visit worthwhile, I made a small enhancement during the dry season, just to meet you in a better posture,” it said.

Responses to this deception from users on Douyin and another Chinese platform Weibo, were pretty divided, according to The Independent.

Some decried the shoddiness of the deception.

“The main thing is that the water pipe is so crudely installed, others at least disguise it in a superior way,” one user said.

Others took a more moral stance: “The move does not respect the laws of nature nor the visitors.”

Another group of users found the blatant deception mostly harmless.

One said that “it is better than seeing no water at all” for the 7 million tourists every year who come to see the waterfall.

Perhaps, but this embarrassing discovery was very much in character for the Chinese government and Chinese industry.

After all, only last month a Chinese zoo was busted for painting Chow Chow dogs and presenting them as “pandas.”

Watch 

China leads the world in counterfeit and pirated goods, targets Americans with IP theft and threatens global trade by flooding the market with artificially low-priced goods.

That is on top of its blatant lies surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, from its grossly inaccurate death counts to its denial that the Wuhan lab had anything to do with the outbreak.

Heavily Armed Federal Agents Show Up at Home of Texas Doctor After He Blew Whistle on Sex-Change Program at Texas Children’s Hospital, Serve Him Federal Indictment   By Cristina Laila

June 7, 2024 12:40 pm – **Please support Dr. Eithan Haim’s GiveSendGo by clicking here**

Biden’s corrupt Justice Department indicted a Texas surgeon who blew the whistle on a sex-change program at the Texas Children’s Hospital.

In May 2023, Dr. Eithan Haim leaked the sex change documents to investigative reporter Christopher Rufo. Dr. Haim was careful not to disclose any patient information but the Biden DOJ indicted him on four felony counts related to HIPAA violations.

One day after Dr. Haim exposed the Texas Children’s Hospital, the Texas state legislature voted to ban transgender medical treatment and procedures on minors.

Dr. Haim was informed last year that he was under federal investigation for leaking documents to Christopher Rufo.

On Tuesday, heavily armed agents showed up at Dr. Haim’s door and told him that he had been indicted with four felony charges.

“Had three heavily armed agents at my door 7AM Tuesday to inform me I was indicted with four felonies…for blowing the whistle about the largest children’s hospital in the world lying to the public about their transgender program,” Dr. Eithan Haim said on X.

You can support Dr. Eithan Haim’s GiveSendGo here.

“My name is Eithan Haim. I am a 33-year-old general surgeon who was the anonymous whistleblower in a story released May 16, 2023 by Christopher Rufo. We exposed the fact that Texas Children’s Hospital – the largest children’s hospital in the world – was lying to the public about the existence of their transgender program. In part due to the story’s release, the very next day, the Texas Legislature voted, with bipartisan support, to ban transgender medical interventions on minors. The conduct we exposed became illegal in the State of Texas within 24 hours of our story,” the Dr’s GiveSendGo said.

“Just over a month later, on June 23rd, 2023, a few hours before my graduation from surgical training, two federal agents showed up to my apartment in a highly atypical, unexpected, and aggressive show of force. Despite their best attempt at launching a surprise interview, I insisted on having an attorney present. Before leaving, however, I was given a target letter signed by a federal prosecutor that stated I was being criminally investigated for a case regarding “medical records.”” – he said.

“Since no laws had been violated (no personally identifiable patient health information was disclosed), this was nothing more than a blatant attempt at political intimidation. We believe this case is being driven by a highly ideological division within the Department of Health and Human Services that aims to silence whistleblowers who expose institutionalized medical corruption and the dangers of these hormone-based interventions for confused, adolescent children,” Dr. Haim added.

 

“President Biden Needs to Stop All of This – Don’t Be Naive People!” – Dr. Phil Interviews President Trump and Goes Off on Biden’s Destruction of US Justice System   (VIDEO  19:06)    By Jim Hoft

June 7, 2024 7:45 am – Dr. Phil traveled to Mar-a-Lago to sit down with President Trump for an exclusive one-on-one interview.

Dr. Phil says he would like to sit down with all three of the top presidential candidates. Trump is his first interview. Robert Kennedy, Jr. may be second. Don’t hold your breath for any sit down with Old Joe. That’s not going to happen.

On the Democrat Party’s Destruction of the US Justice System

Dr. Phil: I called for the other day, and I don’t know if you saw it, but on Marriott Street Media, where I now do my show, I called for President Biden to stop all of this now. And of course, a lot of people said, Oh, he can’t stop it. It’s a state case. Well, okay, that’s an explanation for stupid people. But for people that understand how this works behind the scenes and all, I say the same thing. They need to stop this. They need to stop pursuing you. Since you started your campaign in 2015 to run for office, there have been so many attempts to get you off the board even before you started your campaign. Then once you were in office, two impeachment opportunities, they changed the rules to try to make it high crimes and misdemeanors. If there were business conflicts, and in this case, in this case. Never ends. It seems to be never-ending. And that is a distraction to you…

President Trump: …You just mentioned a question that I’m not allowed to talk about. Can you imagine? I’m the Republican nominee, and I’m not allowed to talk because a local judge from New York, appointed by Democrats, said, I can’t talk about it. It’s so unfair. And then he gives a jury charge. Nobody’s ever heard of a charge like this. He gave instructions to the jury. And by the way, the jury happened to be in a location that was almost no Republicans. You understand that?

Dr. Phil: Yeah. It was 87, 13 in the last two elections, Republican. And I know you can’t talk about it. I’m not under a gag order. I do know that the number three person in the Department of Justice took a pay cut and went down in stature to go to a state job and become one of the lead prosecutors in this case. But yet they say, Hey, Dr. Phil, why are you saying that President Biden needs to stop all of this. It’s a state case. That’s exactly why I’m saying it. Don’t be naive, people. Understand that there’s a power play going on here.

President Trump: It’s controlled by the White House and the DOJ, 100%.

Unanimous Supreme Court Calls Foul on Government Efforts to Blacklist and Informally Censor Disfavored Political Groups Such as the NRA

June 07, 2024  WASHINGTON, D.C.  The Rutherford Institute — In a unanimous ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a warning to government officials that the First Amendment prohibits them from “wielding their power selectively to punish or suppress speech,” whether directly or indirectly by “coerc[ing] a private party to punish or suppress disfavored speech on [the government’s] behalf.”

Warning against a growing cancel culture mindset within government agencies across the political spectrum which seeks to censor, ostracize, and shun those with opposing, disfavored, or politically unpopular viewpoints, a legal coalition made up of The Rutherford Institute, FIRE, the National Coalition Against Censorship, and the First Amendment Lawyers Association had filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court in NRA v. Vullo challenging government efforts to indirectly censor the National Rifle Association by pressuring regulated insurance companies to disassociate from and stop offering certain services to the pro-gun advocacy group.

“Whatever government-driven censorship we tolerate now is destined to serve as a building block for greater acts of tyranny,” said constitutional attorney John W. Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute and author of Battlefield America: The War on the American People. “Given the government’s tendency to attach its own labels to behavior and speech that challenges its authority, these efforts to ostracize those with politically unpopular viewpoints should be cause for alarm across the entire political spectrum.”

Low Key Burial of WHO Pandemic Treaty    ANDREAS OEHLER

Laid to rest, oh, so quietly?

JUN 07, 2024 – The seemingly imminent WHO Global Pandemic Treaty of 2024 met its untimely demise, for reasons unknown or unspoken (Al Jazeera, 2024.05.29):

Details of the main points where countries disagreed are not yet known, but diplomats present at the negotiations have revealed bits of information that point to disputes over intellectual property rights among other issues. Key among the points of contention appears to be a requirement for countries to share information on new disease-causing pathogens, as well as the technologies used to combat them.

What is most surprising is that the two main pushers of all things pandemic, the US and the UK, hit the breaks in the eleventh hour:

It is not clear which countries opposed this proposal, but the United States has seen domestic political resistance against the treaty.

Representatives in the United Kingdom delegation also said that they would only agree to sign off on an agreement that adhered to “British national interest and sovereignty,” according to reports by The Associated Press.

My hunch is that the population elimination by the needle is taking the back seat in face of WW3 taking shape in Ukraine and around Israel, Guyana, Taiwan, Iran, just for starters. Everyone is at everyone’s throat. Thus, the populations will be eliminated much faster in hot war than by the needle. And everything will be written off on the bad guys.

Russian Warships Steam For Caribbean As Ukraine Tensions Go Global   BY TYLER DURDEN

FRIDAY, JUN 07, 2024 – 05:48 AM – In a show of force perhaps prompted by President Biden’s authorization of Ukrainian strikes inside Russia using US weapons, a group of Russian warships is en route to the Caribbean, a senior US official has told McClatchy and the Miami Herald. White House officials alerted members of Congress to the Russian move on Wednesday.

The deployment signals Russia’s capacity to operate globally while still fully engaged its third year of war in Ukraine. “This is about Russia showing they are still capable of some level of naval power projection,” the official said. “We should expect more of this activity going forward.” In March, Ukraine claimed it had either sunk or disabled a full third of Russia’s ships in the Black Sea.

CBS News reports that long-range Russian bombers will rendezvous with the ships for combined naval and air maneuvers. Such exercises are not without precedent: Russia conducted similar combined-arms Caribbean maneuvers in 2019, and had a streak of sending ships into the Western Hemisphere at least annually from 2013 to 2020. Following the summer exercises, Russia is expected to engage in a worldwide naval exercise this fall, sources tell CBS.

The Pentagon is tracking a “handful” of ships and support craft that are expected to reach Caribbean waters in the upcoming weeks. US analysts speculate that the flotilla will make port calls in both Cuba and Venezuela. Cuba’s likely relishes the opportunity to host the Russian warships: Last year’s docking of a US nuclear submarine at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base ruffled feathers in Havana, with the Cuban government calling it a “provocative escalation.”

“Clearly, [the Russians] are unhappy — needless to say — with our support for Ukraine and support for our NATO allies,” the official said. Last week, the Biden administration quietly gave Ukraine the green light to use US weapons to strike targets inside Russia. That marked a major policy reversal, as such strikes had previously been barred as too escalatory.

Ukraine has apparently wasted little time in exercising its new freedom, as images circulated on social media that appeared to show burning S-300 and S-400 mobile surface-to-air missile systems inside Russian territory:

On Wednesday, Russian President Putin said he was considering some kind of retaliation-in-kind:

If they consider it possible to deliver such weapons to the combat zone to launch strikes on our territory and create problems for us, why don’t we have the right to supply weapons of the same type to some regions of the world where they can be used to launch strikes on sensitive facilities of the countries that do it to Russia?…We will think about it.”

Expect America’s warmongers to shriek at Russia’s upcoming Caribbean exercises — despite the fact that US military forces routinely buzz by the territorial waters and airspace of Russia, China and many other countries around the world.

Islamic Group Executes Three Christians in Nigeria   By Pamela Geller

Radical Campus Anti-Israel Groups Sued for Being Terror Propagandists-‘Fomenting Hatred’    By Margaret Flavin

June 6, 2024 12:00 pm – In a new lawsuit filed in Virginia, American Muslims for Palestine and National Students for Justice in Palestine, both notorious for their anti-Semitic, Hamas-supporting rhetoric, are being accused of acting as the “propaganda division” for Hamas terrorists in the United States.

A report from CBN reveals the dark collaboration aimed at spreading terrorist propaganda on American soil.

Arsen Ostrovsky of the Jerusalem-based International Legal Forum told CBN that American Muslims for Palestine and National Students for Justice in Palestine are essentially serving as the “propaganda division” for Hamas terrorists in the U.S. and that the groups are more than just “advocacy organizations”

Ostrovsky is working alongside the U.S. legal team of Greenberg, Traurig, and the National Jewish Advocacy Group.

The Gateway Pundit has reported on the support these groups receive directly from Hamas leaders. Senior Hamas official Khaled Mashal officially thanked student protesters at American universities for their protests and anti-Israel encampments and for their participation in the “Al-Aqsa Flood” war.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Sayyid Ali Khamenei also released a letter thanking American college students who staged campus protests against Israel and the United States after the October 7 terrorist attack by Hamas and  praised them for their role as part of an international “Resistance Front.”

Ostrovsky explained, “They are acting and serving in collaboration and coordination with Hamas, essentially as propagandists and collaborators on campus to try and promote the Hamas extremist ideology.”

CBN reports:

According to Ostrovsky, the campus agitators began mobilizing the day after October 7th.

“Hamas issued a call to action. And the very next day, SJP and their affiliates throughout the United States – they answered that call. They answered that directive. They created a toolkit, a manifesto for chapters across the United States, echoing the language, the terminology, the instructions by the Hamas terror group, and propagated that across campuses,” Ostrovsky said.

The lawsuit charges these groups with becoming foot soldiers for Hamas and includes nine plaintiffs, both Americans and Israelis, seeking damages for the harm inflicted. The suit also alleges the groups have committed violations of the U.S. Anti-Terrorism Act.

Among the plaintiffs are victims and survivors of the horrific Nova music festival massacre.

Ostrovsky asserted, “They are the ones fomenting the hatred, the antisemitism, the harassment of Jewish students. We need to shut them down. And we can do that legally by branding them as a terrorist organization, as a collaborator of the Hamas terror group, and making sure once and for all they cannot be active on campus.”

And the battle will not be fought only on the battlefield, but also in courtrooms.

“Today, Israel is being demonized, vilified, and delegitimized, with international law being weaponized against us simply for defending our citizens and trying to rescue our captives,” Ostrovsky continued.

He insisted that accountability is crucial not only for Hamas terrorists but also for those who enable and support their agenda. This fight is a critical step towards curbing the spread of extremist ideology and protecting Jewish students across America.

 

500 Non-Citizens Register to Vote in Washington D.C. – Democrats Outnumber Republicans By Ratio of 10 to One!   By Ben Kew

June 6, 2024 11:20 am – The latest voter registration numbers among noncitizens in Washington D.C. are a stark reminder of how the Democratic Party plans to use foreigners to cement their national majority.

Last year, an Obama-appointed federal judge upheld a Washington D.C. law that allows noncitizens, including illegal aliens, to vote in local elections.

The Washington Post reports:

The voters include 310 who registered as Democrat, 169 independent, 28 Republican and 16 Statehood Green, said Sarah Graham, a spokesperson for the D.C. Board of Elections.

In this city, which has no voting representative in Congress, leaders have expanded voting rights to noncitizen residents. Noncitizens are eligible to vote if they are at least 18 years old as of Election Day, have been a D.C. resident for at least 30 days before the election, have not been deemed by a court legally incompetent to vote and are not claiming the right to vote in any state, territory or country.

There has been opposition, with critics arguing that the right to vote should be reserved for American citizens. The U.S. House advanced a bill last month to block noncitizen voting in D.C., though it’s unlikely this bill would move forward in the Democratic-controlled Senate. Workers for the D.C. Board of Elections have also been fielding angry messages from callers opposed to noncitizen voting, said Monica Evans, the office’s executive director.

As reported by The Gateway Pundit, the city’s Democratic authorities are also handing out documents to illegal aliens and noncitizens explaining how they can register to vote and secure their left-wing supermajority.

As well as voting, noncitizens in D.C. are also permitted to work as police officers. The change in policy was reportedly implemented after the city realized that it was struggling to recruit and retain police officers. Successful applicants are also eligible for a massive $25,000 signing bonus to help accelerate the recruitment drive.

Disgraced Former FBI Chief Andrew McCabe Says Some Agents Will Flee Country If Trump Wins, Fear They Will Be ‘Thrown In Jail’  (VIDEO)   By Ben Kew

June 6, 2024 9:45 am – Former FBI chief Andrew McCabe has claimed that some FBI agents and other law enforcement employees are planning to leave the country if Donald Trump wins in November.

In an interview with CNN’s Kaitlin Collins, McCabe argued that many individuals fear being  “thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of extra judicial detention” if Trump returns to the Oval Office.

He explained:

When you think about these things and you try to predict how Donald Trump is going to react are the steps he’s going to take you really don’t have to go any further than listening to the things he says and does his, comments recently are offensive and horrendous, but they’re not a surprising in any way. He’s been saying this for quite some time. I will be your retribution is referring to is supporters. So, you know him, you know, what motivates him. He is not a person who’s driven by principle or ideology. He is someone who’s entirely transactional.

If he feels like he’s been wronged in some way, then he focuses on revenge and then in vengeance. He’s made it perfectly clear that that’s what he’s gonna do. In the process of seeking that he run the risk of dismantling or greatly incapacitating the Department of Justice and the FBI. That is something that Americans on both sides of the political aisle should be worried about. We depend on those institutions to protect us.

It’s terrifying, it’s frightening. I have a lot of conversations with former colleagues, people who are or were in the intelligence and law enforcement community, and may have worked in the Obama administration, other places and people are really trying to assess what is life going to be like if Donald Trump wins a second term.

On a very personal level, I mean, these are tortures discussions with their family members about whether or not they have to leave the country to avoid being unconstitutionally and illegally detain. People were actually worried about being thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of extra judicial detention. I think it’s crazy as this sounds in the United States, America, I think people should really consider that these are possibilities listen to what the man says.

“There is Not a Prison Built or a Jail Built That Will Ever Shut Me Up” – Bannon Speaks to Reporters After Judge Orders Him to Prison on July 1 – VIDEO   By Jordan Conradson

June 6, 2024 2:02 pm – Steve Bannon and his attorney, David Schoen, spoke to the press earlier following Bannon’s DC court hearing in the sham January 6 Committee subpoena case.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Bannon has been ordered to surrender to prison by July 1. This ruling comes after Bannon’s appeal was denied by a Washington, D.C. judge.

United States District Court Judge Carl Nichols issued the decision on Thursday, rejecting Bannon’s request to stay his sentence while he seeks to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

This ruling follows Bannon’s conviction on charges related to his refusal to comply with a subpoena from the House committee investigating the January 6th witch hunt.

Bannon refused to provide documents to the January 6 Committee because President Trump asserted executive privilege.

“Based on long-standing U.S. Department of Justice authority, you should not appear for a deposition or provide documents,” Bannon argued.

“We’ve had constitutional executive privilege for 250 years, going back to George Washington,” Former Gorsuch clerk and regular guest on Bannon’s “War Room” Mike Davis said last month.

“So Presidents can get candid advice from their presidential advisors (both inside and outside of government( without fear they will get hauled before Congress—and especially not get thrown in prison,” he added.

Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs BUSTED Taking $400,000 in Apparent Bribe For State Contracts   By Jordan Conradson

June 6, 2024 4:40 pm – Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs has come under fire once more over the “donations” to a dark money group for her inaugural events last year after it was reported that a state contractor’s six-figure donation led to millions in state funds.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Katie Hobbs’ ethics was called into question by GOP State Legislators after she charged donors as much As $250,000 using a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group for inaugural events.

The nonprofit she used was also headquartered at the same address as Coppersmith Brockelman PLC. This is the same Democrat law firm that represented Defendant Katie Hobbs in Kari Lake’s lawsuit to overturn the rigged 2022 midterm.

The donors to Katie Hobbs’ inauguration included Sunshine Residential Homes and its affiliates, who donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to later receive a previously denied rate increase for their youth group home services.

Even the far-left Arizona Republic is questioning Katie Hobbs and suggesting an investigation is in order.

Via Arizona State Senator Jake Hoffman on X:

BREAKING: Pay-To-Play Scandal Involving AZ’s Democrat Governor Unfolding

State contractor donated $400,000 to Gov. Katie Hobbs and AZ Democrats, and got millions more in state money

DCS over the course of the past year approved what amounts to a nearly 60% increase in the rate that Sunshine Residential Homes Inc. charges to care for a child for a day, meaning potentially millions of dollars more going to the company at taxpayers’ expense.

No other standard group home provider — there are dozens — was approved for any rate increase during Hobbs’ tenure.

After initial rejection, Sunshine’s rate increase comes after political donation. Sunshine Residential Homes in December 2022 sought a 20% rate increase, to $179 per day. DCS denied it on Feb. 6, 2023, according to records provided by the department.

Three days later, Sunshine donated $100,000 to a dark-money fund Hobbs’ campaign created…

Only recently did the company begin contributing to political campaigns in Arizona.

Two six-figure donations from Sunshine to the Arizona Democratic Party were reported when Hobbs was running for governor, totaling $200,000 in September and October 2022.

[Sunshine’s CEO] and his wife personally donated nearly the maximum amount, $5,000 each, to Hobbs’ campaign.

That’s not all the company would kick in. Another $200,000 was donated after Hobbs’ election, with half of that going directly to Hobbs’ inauguration fund through her dark money group.

[Sunshine’s Director of Programs] worked for DCS for a decade before joining Sunshine in 2022, according to his resume. Saifi donated $5,000 to Hobbs’ gubernatorial campaign the same day his boss did, state records show. ——-

GO WOKE, GO BROKE: Washington Post in Dire Straits After Losing Half Their Readers Since 2020   By Pamela Geller

June 5, 2024 – I can’t believe they still have half (!)

As I wrote yesterday, the Post has fired its editor Sally Buzbee and is hiring a new team to right the ship—if righting the ship is even possible.  The publisher met with the newsroom and was quite blunt about why the former editor departed and announced the changes he was making. “Reporters” didn’t like the changes.” Buzbee, you see, was the first female editor of the Post, and like Kamala Harris too valuable as a symbol to have mere competence be a determining factor evaluating the job she was doing. Did I mention that the Post is bleeding money and losing audience faster than the movie “Cats? did” (HotAir).

Dylan Byers: I’d argue the worst sign for WaPo is that they’ve lost *half* their audience since 2020 and *$77 million* last year…. and the fact that they have someone trying to get them out of that rut who isn’t overly sensitive to their anxieties (or to P.R.-approved diction) is a net win (X).

 

NONSTOP ESCALATION: Macron To Announce Sending French Army Instructors to Ukraine – Russian Officials Alert They Will Be ‘Legitimate Military Targets’   By Paul Serran

June 5, 2024 8:40 pm – Slowly but surely, highly unpopular French President Emmanuel Macron is taking his dysfunctional Republic step-by-step towards a war with Russia.

It is now certain that during the 80-year celebration of the D-Day landings, he will take the opportunity to announce that he is sending French ‘military instructors’ to train the Ukrainian forces near the frontlines.

As one would expect, the Russians responded with a clear threat against any French soldier or trainers in Ukraine.

Politico reported:

“’No instructor involved in training the Ukrainian military has immunity’, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told the press according to a report from French newswire AFP. ‘It doesn’t matter whether they’re French or not’, Peskov added.”

Macron will meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is widely expected to announce a small coalition of countries willing to send trainers on the ground in Ukraine.

“Russia’s Vladimir Putin said last week there were already ‘specialists [in Ukraine] under the guise of mercenaries’. State news agency TASS meanwhile quoted Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova as saying that Moscow had ‘confirmation coming in on reports that France is preparing to send its troops to Ukraine’, in reference to trainers.”

Russian foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, also said that French military instructors operating in Ukraine are a ‘legitimate target’ for Russia.

Business Insider reported:

“‘Regardless of whether they are French Army service personnel or just mercenaries, they are an absolutely legitimate target for the Russian Armed Forces’, he told reporters, per an official transcript from Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

‘I have reasons to think that they are already active in Ukraine’, he said, without giving specifics.”

The prospect of sending troops to Ukraine is gaining traction among NATO members such as the Baltic States And Poland.

“Ukrainian leaders have asked the US and other NATO allies to assist in training 150,000 recruits closer to the front lines for speedier deployment, The New York Times reported last month.”

This is an important bottleneck in the Ukrainian army, for not only can’t they draft enough citizens into the army, but they also can’t train them properly before sending them to the front.

So Ukrainian field commanders have been bracing for the influx these poorly trained recruits.

Sputnik reported:

“The commanders complained that they used to spend weeks teaching new recruits basic skills, such as how to shoot, because most of them were poorly trained.

‘We had guys who didn’t even know how to take a rifle apart and put it back together’, [said] an assistant battalion commander with the call sign Schmidt.”

Commanders have to waste a lot of time right at the front on basic training of the conscripts.

Mexico’s Leftist President-Elect Gathers Latin American Socialist Leaders, as Opposition Candidate Demands Recount, Another Mayor Is Killed, and the Panicked Market Melts   By Paul Serran

June 5, 2024 9:00 pm – The Latin American leftist network of leaders is delighted by the victory of the ruling party’s candidate Claudia Sheinbaum in the ultra-violent Mexican elections that saw over 28 candidates killed during the election cycle.

But the market reacted in a panic, as the unrelenting violence keeps claiming the lives of political leaders, and the opposition demands a full recount of the problematic vote.

Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro, Colombia’s Gustavo Petro, Brazil’s Lula da Silva were quick to celebrate the victory, and the leftist goons of the ‘Puebla Group’ sent a delegation to meet with Mexico’s president-elect.

Present at the meeting were former presidents Alberto Fernández (Argentina) and Evo Morales (Bolivia), ahead of a large delegation of the group of ‘progressive leaders’ (a.k.a. socialist hacks).

Although dedicated leftist Sheinbaum celebrated that Mexico is a ‘democratic country with peaceful elections,’ there is now a request of recounting the votes by an opposition candidate, another mayor was assassinated, and the market is plunging out of distrust towards the new government.

Runner-up in Mexico’s presidential election, opposition candidate Xóchitl Gálvez announced that has filed a request to contest the election and demand a recount.

Gálvez wrote on X:

“I know the results surprise us, and we need to analyze what happened. We all knew we were facing an unequal competition against the entire state apparatus dedicated to favoring its candidate. We all noticed how much organized crime was present, threatening and even killing dozens of candidates.

This does not end here. Yes, we will present the challenges that prove what I am saying and what we all know. And we will do so because we cannot allow another election like this. Today, more than ever, we must defend our democracy and our republic. Checks and balances and the separation of powers remain at risk.”

While the complaint about organized crime influence may be seen as exaggerated, it is absolutely not.

CBS reported:

The mayor of a town in western Mexico was killed on Monday, the regional government said, barely 24 hours after Claudia Sheinbaum was elected the Latin American country’s first woman president. Officials said the mayor’s bodyguard was also killed in the attack.

The Michoacan state government condemned ‘the murder of the municipal president (mayor) of Cotija, Yolanda Sanchez Figueroa’, the regional interior ministry said in a post on social media.”

Elected in 2021, Sanchez was gunned down on a public road, according to local media, with one outlet even reporting that she was shot 19 TIMES outside of a gym, in a drive-by by gunmen inside a white truck who opened fire ‘from the moving vehicle and then escaped’.”

Sanchez’s bodyguard was also reportedly hit by the gunfire and died.

Dozens of candidates (and countless voters) have been killed despite 27,000 soldiers and National Guard members deployed to reinforce election security.

With all that, it is perhaps not surprising that the market has reacted poorly – to say the least – to the continuation of the leftist government in Mexico.

Bloomberg reported:

“Mexico’s peso sank for a second session after an unexpected landslide election win by the ruling party injected local political risk into one of the world’s top carry trades.

The peso shed as much as 2.9% to 18.1936 per dollar by 11:45 a.m. in London, adding to its 3.8% loss on Monday that was its worst one-day tumble since June 2020. Mexico’s benchmark stock index sank 6.1%, the most since the onset of the pandemic.”

Trump Unveils Shakeup to Election Strategy With Launch of Mail-in-Ballot Initiative    by Jordyn M.

June 5, 2024 – Former President Donald Trump officially rallied his supporters to embrace mail-in ballots and early voting for the upcoming November election.

His announcement came with the launch of an initiative called “Swamp the Vote USA.”

“Many Republicans like to vote on Election Day and we must swamp the radical Democrats with massive turnout on Tuesday, November 5,” Trump declared Tuesday in a video filmed at Mar-a-Lago.

“But until then, Republicans must win,” Trump emphasized. “And we must use every appropriate tool available to beat the Democrats, they are destroying our country.”

This move marks a pivotal reversal in election strategy for the former president, as Trump criticized the extensive use of mail-in ballots leading up to the 2020 election.

[Ed.:  I certainly hope (and expect) that adequate blank ballots will be provided, like they are to the Democrats!  Otherwise, how will we be able to keep up with them and their 10 million+ invaders?   If so, I hope to make a few bucks ballot dumping my heart’s out at night!!   ]

 

NYC Police Department Set to Revoke Former President Trump’s Gun License — Violation of State and Federal Laws Looms if Third Gun Remains in Florida: Report   By Jim Hft 

June 5, 2024 5:00 pm – The New York City Police Department (NYPD) is reportedly preparing to revoke former President Donald Trump’s license to carry a gun, a senior police told far-left CNN.

Trump’s New York concealed carry license was quietly suspended on April 1, 2023, following his indictment on sham charges in New York. Two of the three pistols he was licensed to carry were turned over to the NYPD on March 31, 2023. The third gun listed on Trump’s license was “lawfully moved to Florida,” according to the same source.

After Trump was convicted of 34 felonies on May 30, 2024, in made-up crimes, he could potentially be in violation of multiple state and federal laws if he still possesses that third gun in Florida.

Under federal law, specifically the Gun Control Act of 1968, it is illegal for anyone who has been convicted of a felony to own or possess a firearm or ammunition.

The NYPD’s Legal Bureau is set to complete an investigation “that will likely lead to revocation of his license,” the senior police official said. However, Trump retains the right to seek a hearing challenging the revocation, per CNN.

The leftist news outlet added:

Trump has had a license from the NYPD to carry a concealed firearm for more than a decade, according to multiple law enforcement sources, but because Trump’s application came with a request for confidentiality, they are exempt from public records requests, according to the NYPD’s guidelines and New York state law.

The suspension and pending revocation of his carry license suggests that he maintained his license the entire time of his presidency and after, until he was charged with multiple felonies for falsifying business records in March 2023.

As a former president, Trump has full-time US Secret Service protection.

 

BREAKING: Georgia Court of Appeals Halts All Proceedings in Trump RICO Case   By Cristina Laila

June 5, 2024 3:40 pm – Fani Willis trial against Trump is most certainly not happening before the 2024 election!

The Georgia Court of Appeals on Wednesday halted all proceedings in Trump’s RICO case until the court rules on the effort to disqualify Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

“The proceedings below in the Superior Court of Fulton County are hereby stayed pending the outcome of these appeals,” the order read.

President Trump’s appeal hearing to disqualify Fulton Country District Attorney Fani Willis was tentatively set for October 4th.

Last month the Georgia Court of Appeals agreed to review President Donald Trump’s appeal to disqualify disgraced Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis from the sham RICO case against him.

“Upon consideration of the Application for Interlocutory Appeal, it is ordered that it be hereby GRANTED. The Appellant may file a Notice of Appeal within 10 days of the date of this order. The Clerk of Superior Court is directed to include a copy of this order in the record transmitted to the Court of Appeals,” the Court said.

In March Georgia Judge Scott McAfee ruled that crooked and dishonest Fani Willis will be allowed to remain on the Trump case.

Judge McAfee however did force Fani’s lover Nathan Wade to be removed from the case. Wade and Willis committed the same crime of perjury during their testimony. The conflicted Judge McAfee did not have the guts to follow the law and do the right thing and disqualify both of the lovebirds.

In March Judge McAfee quashed 6 counts in Fani Willis’ indictment – including 3 counts against President Trump.

Two other lawfare cases against President Trump were also postponed and likely won’t take place until after the 2024 election.

Jack Smith’s classified documents case against Trump was indefinitely postponed by Judge Aileen Cannon.

Jack Smith’s January 6 case in DC is currently on hold as we await a decision from the US Supreme Court related to Trump’s presidential immunity claims.

 

Enormous Mass Illegal Crossing of Military-Age Men in San Diego; Illegals Mock Biden’s Open Border by Posing in Front of Border Wall For Selfies   (VIDEO)   By Cristina Laila

June 5, 2024 10:15 am – Hundreds of military-age men from Africa, Asia, and the Middle East illegally crossed into San Diego County, California very early Tuesday morning.

“At 1:30 AM this morning, we witnessed an enormous mass illegal crossing of hundreds of people from around the world into Jacumba, California, in San Diego County,” Fox News reporter Bill Melugin said.

The illegals crossed through a gap in the border wall in Southern California.

The illegals mocked Biden’s open border by posing in front of the border wall for selfies.

“I also witnessed many of the illegal immigrants posing in front of the border wall for photos and selfies after they successfully entered the U.S. – seeming to use the wall as a prop for photos or almost a tourist attraction. There continues to be a little fear of consequences,” Bill Melugin said.

WATCH 

Joe Biden on Tuesday held a fake border security press conference on his new asylum ‘restrictions’ from the East Room.

More than 15 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age males – have invaded the US on Biden’s watch.

Joe Biden took 94 executive actions in his first 100 days in office to destroy the border.

Now he’s acting like the savior with his new ‘asylum restrictions’ – only asylum is STILL AVAILABLE to thousands of illegal aliens every single day released into the US.

According to The New York Post, Biden’s new border ‘crackdown’ will still allow at least 1.8 million illegals to enter the US every year.

 

The Party of Jew-Haters: Democrats Refuse to Sanction International Criminal Court for Targeting Israeli Leader – 155 Democrats Side with Jew-Hating States   By Jim Hoft

June 5, 2024 2:20 pm – On Tuesday night the US House of Representatives passed legislation to sanction the International Criminal Court for their assault on the Israeli leader.

The final vote was 247 to 155. Every single no vote was a Democrat lawmaker.

This came after the International Criminal Court the International Criminal Court filed arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

It is all part of the deep state globalist attack on Israel to prevent Hamas from being defeated.  The Biden regime and its top officials are outspoken critics of Israel.

On May 20, 2024, the International Criminal Court filed an application for an arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.

Leftists cheered the news.

On Tuesday 155 Democrats refused to condemn the International Criminal Court for their unprecedented attack on the Jewish leaders.

Only 42 Democrats supported the measure.

The Democrat Marxists are truly the party of Jew hostility today.

205 Republicans supported the measure condemning the ICC on Tuesday.

ATTORNEY TOM RENZ: Another American Under Attack for Demanding the Truth   By Jim Hft

June 5, 2024 8:15 am – Attorney Tom Renz is standing up for the truth, and as a result, like many others, he’s being attacked.

In July 2023, Renz writes:

The enemies of freedom are continuing by continuing gain-of-function work and pushing “vaccines” into other products such as food, items applied to the skin, and even aerosolizing them. This is because we have succeeded in waking so many people up to the dangers of the injections that no one is taking them. This also means we MUST double down on our work.

In November 2023, Renz shared:

As the freedom fight continues a lot of our work has moved into lawfare. We are filing and/or supporting strategic litigation, pushing legislation, and working incredibly hard to wake up a sleeping public. It’s working. Uptakes for the new boosters are at around 1.3% and that is a big deal. We also just submitted an amicus brief to the Supreme Court of the United States regarding a J6 case and are working CBDC legislation, mRNA in food legislation, and election issues in multiple states.

Last week we were able to testify in Congress. The testimony was given in a hearing set by MTG and saw many heroic congresspeople attend – Matt Gaetz, Ron Johnson, Thomas Massie, Clay Higgins, and others. This hearing allowed us to ensure our elected officials heard, for the first time, new information about the DoD and CIA involvement in both the creation of COVID and the shots. We also shared additional information related to DMED, shedding, and explained that there are likely causes of action available to file suit directly against big pharma.

We desperately need resources at the moment. The fight for freedom is going well on all fronts but resources are very limited. We need as much help as possible to do everything possible before the 2024 election. We have learned that the same people that were behind COVID were behind the election fraud, CBDCs, and all the other issues we are facing. In a nation of 320+ million if we could find 100,000 to give $20 a month we could do a lot to free our country and change the world.

New Jersey Democrats Elect Dead Congressman Donald Payne Jr. in Primary   By Anthony Scott

June 5, 2024 7:45 am – Democrat voters in New Jersey elected deceased Representative  Donald Payne Jr. in Tuesday’s primary.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Representative Donald M. Payne Jr. (D-NJ) died on April 24th at 65.

Before his death, Payne spent the last two weeks in a coma due to having a heart attack and complications with diabetes.

Despite being dead, Payne won New Jersey’s 10th District Democratic primary with 99.9% of the vote.

House passes sanctions on ICC over pursuit of Netanyahu arrest warrants, supported by 42 Dems   By Ben Whedon

42 Democrats joined most Republicans in the 247-155 vote

June 4, 2024 5:42pm  Just The News – The House of Representatives on Tuesday approved legislation to sanction the International Criminal Court in response to its pursuit of arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“This bill is a message to the world that we will not sit by and watch a globalist ‘court’ interfere with Israel’s right to defend itself,” said Florida GOP Rep. Brian Mast, who authored the bill. “There are still six Americans held captive by Hamas in Gaza and we must support Israel in its fight to bring them home.”

Forty-two Democrats joined most Republicans in the 247-155 vote, Politico reported. A further two Republicans abstained. The legislation does not have the support of the Biden administration, which has said that “[t]here are more effective ways to defend Israel, preserve U.S. positions on the ICC, and promote international justice and accountability,” according to Fox News.

The chief prosecutor of the ICC last month announced he would seek arrest warrants for Netanyahu and various Israeli and Hamas leaders in connection with the ongoing conflict.

Biden’s Deal for Israel “Nearly Identical to Hamas’s Own Proposals”   by Daniel Greenfield
June 5, 2024 at 4:00 am

  • The deal that Biden laid out gives Hamas everything it wanted, including staying in power. An end to Israeli attempts to eliminate the terror group. And all the money it could possibly need. Rather than an Israeli proposal, this is almost the exact same ‘ceasefire’ deal that Hamas, Qatar and Egypt had assembled and that Hamas then made a show of accepting a few weeks ago.
  • All Biden did was brush off the Hamas proposal and then declare that it was the Israeli proposal.
  • Indeed, a follow-up call with a senior White House official had him admit that, “it’s nearly identical to Hamas’s own proposals of only a few weeks ago”…
  • In reality, [Biden] had taken an Israeli counter-proposal, changed crucial elements so that it matched Hamas demands at a time when the Israeli government would not be able to respond and unveiled it to the world while daring Israelis to call him a liar. All to save Islamic terrorists.
  • Netanyahu poured cold water on the proposal, stating: “Israel’s conditions for ending the war have not changed: The destruction of Hamas military and governing capabilities, the freeing of all hostages and ensuring that Gaza no longer poses a threat to Israel. Israel will continue to insist these conditions are met before a permanent ceasefire is put in place. The notion that Israel will agree to a permanent ceasefire before these conditions are fulfilled is a non-starter.”
  • So much for the “Israeli proposal”.
  • Not a single member of the Israeli government had explicitly gotten behind Biden’s proposal to leave Hamas in power (or with a fig leaf “technocratic” government to handle the foreign aid.) Neither did they explicitly take on the Biden administration by disavowing it. And the Biden administration is doubling down on forcing Israelis to accept the proposal and save Hamas.
  • While the Biden administration demanded that the Israeli government endorse his proposal, there were no such expectations of Hamas.
  • The White House official announced that the administration will ignore Hamas promises to go on waging terror as part of a cover-up to push the Hamas proposal to save the terror group.
  • The state sponsors of terrorism will police the terrorists. And Biden will police Israel. It’s not a deal to end a war, but to save and finance Hamas so it can begin the next war.

FBI whistleblower wins settlement from agency, including restoration of pay, security clearance   By Madeleine Hubbard and John Solomon

Empower Oversight is still urging the Justice Department inspector general to release the findings of his investigation into the whistleblower.

June 4, 2024 3:03pm  Just The News – The FBI reached a settlement with whistleblower Marcus Allen after he was suspended without pay and had his security clearance pulled after he made protected disclosures regarding the testimony of Director Christopher Wray concerning the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Nonprofit watchdog Empower Oversight announced the settlement Tuesday after it filed an appeal on behalf of Allen in October 2023. The settlement includes 27 months of back pay and benefits that the FBI withheld from Allen since he was suspended in February 2022. Separately, the FBI also restored his security clearance.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said the FBI’s decision to reinstate Allen’s security clearance was a “total vindication for a great patriot” who “bravely stood up to expose misconduct at the FBI, despite attacks from FBI bureaucrats and congressional Democrats.”

Allen, who resigned voluntarily from the FBI this week, said the bureau retaliated against him for his disclosure.

 

OBSCENE BETRAYAL: Biden Took Hamas’s Conditions for Ceasefire and Presented it As Israel’s Offer Without Talking to Netanyahu About It     By Pamela Geller

June 4, 2024 – Netanyahu: “The claims that we have agreed to a ceasefire without our conditions being met are incorrect.”

Biden’s description of cease-fire offer ‘not accurate,’ Israeli official tells NBC News.

In his first public comments on the speech, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said President Joe Biden had published only a partial version of the Israeli proposal.

Netanyahu says war won’t end unless Hamas is destroyed.

By Raf Sanchez, Yuliya Talmazan and Monica Alba, NBC News, June 3, 2024,:

JERUSALEM — President Joe Biden’s description of Israel’s cease-fire proposal was “not accurate,” a senior Israeli official has told NBC News, as doubts grew Monday over the U.S. ally’s stance on the deal.

Biden said in a surprise announcement Friday that he was outlining a truce proposal that had been made by Israel and passed by mediators to Hamas.

But the official called into question Biden’s description of the cease-fire offer as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu — facing competing pressures from Washington and families of hostages on one side and right-wing ministers threatening to bring down his government on the other — said that Biden had put forward only a partial version of the Israeli proposal.

The official specifically disputed that Israel had agreed to fully withdraw its troops from the Gaza Strip as part of a deal to free the 125 or so hostages remaining in captivity there.

BREAKING: Arizona GOP Files BOMBSHELL Lawsuit Against Corrupt Secretary of State After Discovering from 500,000 to 1.3 Million ILLEGAL Voters on State’s Voter Rolls   By Jim Hoft

June 4, 2024 4:40 pm – This is how Democrats win.
This is how Democrats cheat.
This is what must be addressed by Republican groups across the country!

Thank you Arizona Republican Party for showing the rest of America what must be done to bring back election integrity in America today.

The Arizona Republican Party filed a lawsuit against the corrupt Secretary of State Adrian Fontes after discovering from 500,000 to 1.3 million ILLEGAL VOTERS on the state’s voter rolls.

George Behizy reported:

BREAKING: The Arizona Republican party has filed a BOMBSHELL lawsuit against the Secretary of State for violations of the National Voter Registration Act after discovering between 500,000 to 1.3 Million ILLEGAL voters on the voter rolls, including dead people & nonresidents

“The lawsuit highlights outrageous voter registration rates, with some counties exceeding 100% of eligible voters. The lawsuit uncovered that Arizona has between 500,000 to 1,270,000 unaccounted-for voters on the rolls, including deceased individuals and those who have moved away.”

“Our findings reveal a staggering number of counties with more registered voters than eligible citizens, this is a clear indication of a system in disarray. We are holding Adrian Fontes accountable to ensure fair and credible elections in Arizona.”

This exactly how Democrats cheat, bloated voter rolls combined with universal mail in ballots. Republicans have to get ahead of this before November 5th.

Arizona is part of the ERIC System.

JOURNALISM DIES IN WOKENESS: Washington Post Executive Editor Stepping Down – CEO Tells Staff ‘People Are Not Reading Your Stuff’   By Mike Lachance

June 4, 2024 9:20 pm – The troubles at the liberal Washington Post are nothing new. The paper has lost millions over the last year and has even considered replacing journalists with AI bots.

Now things are getting even worse. Sally Buzbee, the executive editor is stepping down and the paper’s CEO recently held a meeting with the staff to inform them that people are not reading the content they are producing.

It is an election year and there is no shortage of news, but the Washington Post is flailing. What does that tell you?

FOX News reported:

WaPo boss sounds alarm over dwindling audience in heated staff meeting: ‘People are not reading your stuff’

Washington Post publisher and CEO William Lewis had a blunt message for his staff during a tense meeting following the sudden ouster of executive editor Sally Buzbee, according to the paper’s own reporting.

“We are going to turn this thing around, but let’s not sugarcoat it. It needs turning around,” Lewis told the paper. “We are losing large amounts of money. Your audience has halved in recent years. People are not reading your stuff. Right. I can’t sugarcoat it anymore.”

Lewis informed his staff Sunday night that Buzbee, who joined the Post in 2021, was parting ways with the paper “effective immediately.” He announced her temporary replacement would be former Wall Street Journal editor-in-chief Matt Murray, who is expected to hold the position through the 2024 election cycle, and that the paper was being restructured into “three newsrooms,” in hopes of turning things around for the beleaguered “Democracy Dies in Darkness” publication.

The Washington Post reported Monday that Buzbee was uncomfortable with an offer to run a different division of the paper. She also reportedly had urged Lewis to hold off on implementing such changes until after the election, which Lewis refused.

During the meeting, some of the staffers reportedly tried to make the issue all about race and gender.

These staffers don’t seem to realize that their objections here are part of the problem.

 

WORLD WAR III WATCH: NATO Drawing Up Plans to Deploy American Soldiers to the Front Line to Potentially Fight Russia in An All-Out War    By Cullen Linebarger

June 4, 2024 4:20 pm – The globalists in charge are interested in potentially expanding the already devastating Ukraine-Russia war beyond the borders of the respective two nations.

The Daily Mail reported Tuesday that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is preparing plans to deploy American forces to the frontlines on the European continent to potentially fight a war with Russia.

Such a dangerous move has the potential to put our men and women in direct harm’s way against a nation with the most nuclear weapons on Earth.

From the Daily Mail Mail:

NATO is drawing up plans to send American troops to the frontlines of Europe in the event of an all-out conflict with Russia, it has been revealed

New ‘land corridors’ are being carved out to quickly funnel soldiers through central Europe without local bureaucratic impediments, allowing NATO forces to pounce in an instant should Putin’s devastating war in Ukraine move further west.

The plans are said to include contingencies in case of Russian bombardment, letting troops sweep into the Balkans via corridors in Italy, Greece and Turkey, or towards Russia’s northern border via Scandinavia.

The plans under development show that American soldiers would land at one of five ports across the European continent. Four would allow access to Ukraine’s western border, while a fifth would reach Russia’s border via Finland.

Reports from last year have indicated that the alliance could provide “300,000 troops at high readiness” in the event of a war with Russia. Since the United States bears up to 70% of the total defense spending of all the countries in the NATO alliance, one can be sure they will provide a majority of these forces.

The ultimate goal of this developing scheme is to ensure that NATO forces can push through Europe without any unnecessary delays caused by local bureaucratic red tape and checkpoints, according to the Mail.

It is a safe bet French President Emmanuel Macron is on board with these plans. The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Macron refused to rule out sending European troops to fight Russian soldiers in Ukraine, a move Russian President Vladimir Putin’s foreign intelligence chief called “extremely dangerous and irresponsible.”

Retired U.S. Army Colonel and former Secretary of Defense Advisor Douglas MacGregor summed this disturbing news best with the following question: What is NATO thinking?

A Loss of Strategic Clarity of Thought From Our Military Leaders    By John Mills

June 4, 2024 6:30 pm – The Government Accountability Office (GAO) came out with a report on the Navy’s new Constellation Class Frigate that was both impactful and yet had a distinct air of the obvious:  The Navy caused a three-year delay in this program “by starting construction on the first frigate before finishing its design, among other missteps.”  Starting construction before the design was complete?  How many homebuyers agree to the price and delivery schedule on a house before the options, upgrades, and other features are agreed to?  Maybe Jeff Bezos – most Americans negotiate the price and schedule first, then sign the contract.

Before the GAO report came out, but well after the problems with the Constellation Class were known, the Coast Guard Commandant, forewarned, decided to step on the same rake.  “Coast Guard to Start Polar Cutter Construction Before Finalizing Design, Despite Recommendation”.  Most mere mortals would define the product, then sign the contract.  Our military leaders decided to inverse the process, sign the contract, give the green light, and then define the product.  With the Constellation Frigate and the Polar Cutter programs, lessons learned and common sense were thrown out the window from the beginning.

Something is very wrong with our military – this is not just about shipbuilding; this is about strategic clarity of thought – and we need to know what caused this virus.

The halls of the Pentagon and the National Security Council used to be populated with giants of history – not anymore.  The Gaza Pier debacle is a visual exemplar of the collapse of American military clarity of thought.  What happened and why?

Secretary of the Navy is 0 for 9

Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro recently came in for a Senate Hearing and it didn’t go well.  The nine major ship programs have a cumulative of 11 years of delays.  The U.S. Navy will break the 300 ship ceiling in 10 years, while the Chinese have over 200 times the capacity of the United States for ship building.  These numbers are so ridiculously divergent as to be comical.

Senate Republicans hammered Del Toro in the “unusually acrimonious” meeting about his focus on climate change, “I see a really big problem that’s not being addressed nearly as enthusiastically as climate change is with the Navy,” said North Dakota Senator Kevin Cramer.

The military leaders are being distracted from their core missions by idols and abstract, feel good, unmeasurable, unobtainable ideals that are deadly for a constitutional republic.  Climate Change, Transgenderism, Open Borders – all are corrosive and toxic concepts that corrupt the thought process.  They all distract from the mission of the Department of Defense, which is stated as, “Our mission is to provide the military forces needed to deter war and ensure our nation’s security”.  Nothing in this mission statement says anything about Climate Change, Transgenderism, Open Borders, or any other pet progressive project.  The cancer that causes the loss of strategic thought begins with a disregard for the purpose of the Department of Defense.  No wonder contracts are signed when the product isn’t defined.

The real metric that tells the story – historic recruiting and retention shortfalls

The military is facing a crisis in recruiting and retention.  From an Association of the United States Army thought piece, the peril was clear, “The Army’s recruiting crisis, the most substantial since the creation of the all-volunteer force 50 years ago, is a threat to U.S. national security”.  The paper goes on to say, “Among Americans ages 17 to 24, only 23% qualify to serve without a waiver due to obesity, drug use or inability to meet academic standards.”

Every one of those salient virtues, being in shape, not using drugs, and having high academic standards are symptoms of “privilege” – the psycho-babble for those who want to push the religion of wokeness.

If the education system is indoctrinating K-12 students with the Communist-inspired psychology of privilege, there’s going to be an increasing percentage of the candidate pool who cannot meet military standards.  And of that 23% who are qualified, how many feel welcome if they are Caucasian, Asian, male, non-transgender, traditional family-minded, Jewish, Christian, Conservative, in shape, do not use drugs, born in America, or any other descriptor determined to be “privileged”?  95% of the population fit into one or more of these categories of privilege, which leaves 1.6 out of 100 meeting the basic qualifications and feeling welcome.  Those who have been indoctrinated by this gibberish are now Generals, Admirals, and Senior Executives.  Woke culture is trained to reward those who show the right intent, results and merit are irrelevant.  One more causal factor explaining why contracts are signed before the deliverable is defined.

At first, military leaders ignored the term “Woke,” then they made fun of it, and now they are angry about it.  Their operatives put out thought pieces that blame those who point out wokeness as the reason why recruiting and retention is so dismal.

In early 2023, the Army political leadership decided to use the talking point “safety” as the reason that recruiting and retention were so bad.  They were hammered by Republicans who wanted to see the unfiltered source data.  I’m not sure exactly what “safety” means – does that mean transgenders don’t feel safe?  Is that the nuanced and coded message?

The signing of contracts before the product is defined is a symptom of “Woke-ism.”  The United States Military needs to be “De-Woked,” and talking about it is the sunlight that starts the healing process.  The DOD is the largest sub-bureaucracy of the largest bureaucracy in the world, the U.S. Government.  Government is never efficient, but once the drag co-efficient of Wokeness is removed, strategic clarity of thought will return.

United Methodist Church loses more than 1 million members in single day when group takes stand for ‘God and His word’   CHRIS ENLOE

Last month, the UMC officially adopted pro-LGBT values.

JUNE 04, 2024 – In one fell swoop last week, the United Methodist Church lost more than 1 million members.

Weeks after the United Methodist Church voted to allow LGBT-practicing clergy and reverse prohibitions on same-sex marriage, the United Methodist Church of Ivory Coast (Eglise Méthodiste Unie Côte d’Ivoire) voted on May 28 to leave the UMC.

The West African Methodists made the decision to leave the UMC “for reasons of conscience, before God and His word, the supreme authority in matters of faith and life.” The decision of the UMC to embrace LGBT culture and same-sex marriages “deviates from the Holy Scriptures,” according to the EMUCI. The UMC church is, therefore, “sacrific[ing] its honor and integrity to honor the LGBTQ community.”

In a statement, Bishop Benjamin Boni said the UMC “is now based on socio-cultural and contextual values which have consumed its doctrinal and disciplinary integrity.”

This is a significant development because it means the UMC is losing more than 1 million members.

Even more important is the fact that Methodism of the conservative/traditional variety is growing in the Ivory Coast. The UMC in the U.S., on the other hand, has seen years of decline — especially as the denomination began embracing liberalism.

Ministry Watch explained:

With 900 churches and 100 preaching points, the church has experienced 7-8% annual growth. Its demographic reflects the country’s, with 60% under 35 and women as the majority. Alongside its spiritual mission, the church runs schools and a hospital while engaging in community development.

The Côte d’Ivoire Conference was granted provisional membership in the denomination during the 2004 General Conference and fully admitted in 2008. It quickly became one of the denomination’s largest conferences, with over 1 million professing members as of the most recent report.

The EMUCI is not the first group of Methodists to walk away from the UMC.

Over the last several years, thousands of UMC congregations in the U.S. have disaffiliated from the UMC, joining the Global Methodist Church or remaining independent. They left over the denomination’s liberal drift.

The Korean Methodist Church — which boasts approximately 1.5 million members — could soon also be on its way out of the UMC.

“Homosexuality cannot be accepted until the Lord returns. This is not an emotional issue but a matter of unchangeable truth. Homosexuality is clearly a sin,” a coalition of conservative Korean Methodists said last month. “This is an issue concerning the sanctity of life that the church must teach correctly, without compromise.”

Supreme Court Sides With Biden Regime — Denies InfoWars Host Owen Shroyer’s Appeal Against Sham J6 Conviction — Despite Never Entering Capitol Building!   By Ben Kew

June 4, 2024 7:30 am – The Supreme Court has denied an appeal from InfoWars host Owen Shroyer against his conviction related to the January 6th protests.

Shroyer, a hugely popular commentator, and activist with Alex Jones’s InfoWars, was convicted of a misdemeanor and received a 60-day prison sentence after pleading guilty to engaging in “disruptive and riotous behavior” at the Capitol Building, despite the fact he never went inside.

His appeal was rejected as part of a routine list of orders released on Monday morning, with no Justice dissenting or commenting on the decision.

In his petition to the court, Shroyer’s lawyers argued that the District Court had failed to recognize his “unique role” as a journalist and had violated his First Amendment rights.

“The precedent has been set. You can be arrested & sentenced for legal & lawful speech,” Shroyer wrote on the X platform after his appeal was rejected. “My case was the precedent. The message is clear. Speak out against government & risk arrest.”

Who Is Funding the Pro-Hamas Protests; Are They Aiming to Take Down America?   by Robert Williams
June 4, 2024 at 5:00 am

  • Rather more jarring is that the Biden administration, and therefore taxpayer money, is also funding the protests, through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
  • “U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), Vice Chairman of the Senate Republican Conference and Ranking Member of the Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee… discussed oversight findings from the EPW Committee that revealed a $50 million grant was awarded from the EPA through the Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) to ‘Climate Justice Alliance,’ a group that engages in pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, and anti-Semitic activities.” — US Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, May 21, 2024.
  • “[We] went to the website of Climate Justice Alliance. This is what we found on the website that our taxpayer dollars are going to organizations such as this. This, at the bottom, is a picture of the bulldozer that went through the fence when Hamas attacked Israel on October 7.” — Senator Shelley Moore Capito, May 21, 2024.
  • The People’s Forum’s executive director Manolo De Los Santos called for the complete destruction of the United States at the conference to great applause: “We have to bring down this empire with one million cuts, and those one million cuts have to come from every sector of struggle in this room.”
  • Terrorists and their billionaire, as well as less-affluent supporters, are actively conspiring to destroy the US with the backing of foreign powers — and very little, if anything, is being done to stop it.

Rand Paul Warns Of “War In The Streets” Coming From Trump Verdict   by Steve Watson

MONDAY, JUN 03, 2024 – 03:55 PM – GOP Senator Rand Paul has warned that the fallout of the weaponisation of the justice system against Donald Trump could lead to “war in the streets.”

Appearing on Fox Business, Paul was asked “What is your reaction to the conviction?”

The Senator responded that it is “a sad day in America,” adding “what I worry about is something even bigger than Donald Trump.”

“I worry about strife. I worry about war in the streets. I worry about 50 percent of the public believing that the court system will be used against them,” Paul further urged.

“I worry when half the country thinks they won’t be treated fairly, what happens and how people react,” the Senator continued.

Paul also pointed out how Hillary Clinton was treated completely differently when she was charged over her email server.

“If you look at records violations and you look at Hillary Clinton, $8 million expense, and they slapped her on the wrist cause she got an $8 thousand fine,” Paul asserted.

“I think Donald Trump is the only person ever prosecuted for this particular crime,” Paul further suggested, stating that there are probably thousands of cases of records violations in New York that never go to court.

As we highlighted yesterday, Bill Maher has predicted that if Trump is sentenced to any prison time, there will be a civil war that will quickly evolve into a race war because of MAGA supporters.

Continue reading

[Ed.:  Rand Paul and Bill Maher are both incurable optimists.  If they were right, we would have been unanimously protesting in the streets already.  Unfortunately, they are both mistaken.  Nothing will get us off our asses. There will be no “war in the streets”.  The People will do absolutely NOTHING.]

 

WW3 WATCH: Kremlin Warns U.S. of ‘Fatal Consequences’ as Biden Greenlights Missile Strikes on Russian Mainland    By Ben Kew

June 3, 2024 9:00 pm – The Kremlin has warned the United States is facing potentially “fatal consequences” after the Biden regime greenlighted Ukrainian missile strikes on targets within the Russian mainland.

“I would like to warn American leaders against miscalculations that could have fatal consequences,” Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said, according to the Russian state news agency RIA. “For unknown reasons, they underestimate the seriousness of the rebuff they may receive.”

“I urge these figures (in the U.S.) … to spend some of their time, which they apparently spend on some kind of video games, judging by the lightness of their approach, on studying what was said in detail by Putin,” Ryabkov said, adding that Putin had given “a very significant warning and it must be taken with the utmost seriousness.”

“Constant escalation can lead to serious consequences,” Putin told reporters in Tashkent last week. “If these serious consequences occur in Europe, how will the United States behave, bearing in mind our parity in the field of strategic weapons?”

Last week, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken confirmed that the White House had granted approval for Ukraine to use U.S.-supplied weapons against targets within Russian territory, specifically near the border close to Kharkiv.

However, Blinken insisted this authorization was given solely for the purpose of defending Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city, which is situated around 18 miles from Russia and has been enduring relentless and escalating attacks, including frequent airstrikes.

“The hallmark of our engagement, our support for Ukraine over these more than two years has been to adapt and adjust as necessary to meet what’s actually going on on the battlefield, to make sure Ukraine has what it needs, when it needs it, to do that deliberately and effectively,” Blinken said during a recent press conference. “And that’s exactly what we’re doing in response to what we’ve now seen in and around the Kharkiv region.”

“Over the past few weeks, Ukraine came to us and asked for authorization to use weapons that we’re providing to defend against this aggression, including against Russian forces that are amassing on the Russian side of the border and then attacking into Ukraine,” he continued. “And that went right to the [U.S.] president. And, as you’ve heard, he’s approved the use of our weapons for that purpose.”

The risk of escalation and potentially catastrophic consequences comes despite reports that Putin is open to agreeing a ceasefire agreement with Ukraine along current battle lines, an outcome that he believes he can sell to the Russian people. However, western leaders are simply not interested and the war is expected to continue for the forseeable future.

 

Fauci Was NOT in Charge of Covid Policy. The National Security Council Was.    DEBBIE LERMAN

Here’s the question they should be asking Fauci, but never will: Who was actually in charge, and why?

JUN 03, 2024 – So much excitement surrounds the questioning of Dr. Anthony Fauci under oath about the Covid pandemic response. Again. And he evades, and prevaricates, and avoids taking responsibility. Again.

And, once again, nobody asks the crucial questions.

When Fauci, former head of NIAID and the public face of the U.S. government’s Covid pandemic response, says the 6 ft social distancing rule “just sort of appeared” — doesn’t anybody wonder: WHERE DID IT APPEAR FROM?

When Dr. Francis Collins, former head of of the NIH, who according its website “spearheaded the NIH’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic,” says about the 6ft social distancing rule, “I did not see evidence, but I’m not sure I would have been shown evidence at that point” — doesn’t anybody wonder: WHY WAS THE SPEARHEAD OF THE RESPONSE NOT SHOWN THE EVIDENCE? AND WHO WAS NOT SHOWING IT TO HIM?

These are just two examples of how government committees of “investigators,” when questioning the “leaders” of the Covid pandemic response, skip right over the most relevant issues.

The National Security Council Was in Charge of Pandemic Policy

In fact, we know from the official U.S. government pandemic planning documents, that the pandemic response policy was actually not set by these public health figures at all. It was determined by the National Security Council — the advisory board to the President of the United States on matters of national security. Not a public health board. A group of military and intelligence people who advise about war and terrorism. They were in charge.

The Price of Failing to Vote   [VIDEO  4:53]   Brigitte Gabriel

Restoring Law and Order

JUN 03, 2024  ACT FOR AMERICA – There’s a SHOCKING REASON behind why we see our once great cities fall into chaos and ruin!

Click below to watch and read on to learn more about how to restore law and order. Originally posted September 7, 2023.

Failing to Vote Has Consequences!

Have you ever taken a close look at how many people elected your City Mayor, who has the power to tell the local Police Chief not to enforce our laws?

In America’s largest 100 cities, 64 are Democrats, 24 are Republicans, 4 are Independents, and 6 are non-partisan.

Statistics show that Democrat-run cities are nearly DOUBLE THE VIOLENT CRIME RATE as Republican-run cities. Murder rates are approaching 3x the rate.

Beyond the rise in violent crime, the rising rates of carjackings, car thefts, and looting are driving both residents and businesses away from our once-thriving cities. Homelessness, prostitution, and open-air drug markets are swallowing up our neighborhoods while children are forced to wade through the filth on their way to and from school. Our squalid cities, once celebrated, have now deteriorated into pockets of lawlessness where criminals thrive. This alarming trend has left communities in constant fear and despair.

#1 Most Populated New York City, NY: Only 753,801 (16%) of 4.7 million registered voters elected Mayor Eric Adams.

#2 Most Populated Los Angeles, CA: Only 509,944 (9%) of 5.6 million registered voters elected Mayor Karen Bass.

#3 Most Populated Chicago, IL: Only 319,481 (21%) of 1.5 million registered voters elected Mayor Brandon Johnson.

#17 Most Populated San Francisco, CA: Only 125,200 (25%) out of 498,197 registered voters elected Mayor London Breed.

Cities most infamous for rampant rising crime are run by Democrats who have shifted the blame of criminality onto society and taxpayers, turning their cities into GOTHAM, where lunatics are running the show.

WE KNOW CRIMINALITY IS A CHOICE!

Remember-Our states and nation are being run by elected officials who have the backing of less than one-third of the population.

WORSE YET, only 3-7% of voters cast a vote for a City Mayor and other important local offices nationwide!

We may tend to vote party lines, but statistically, we only vote for the top 5-10% of the entire ballot. What a disaster!

This means as little as 1% of voters in your county are electing local officials.

JUST IN: Biden Regime Indicts Epoch Times Chief Financial Officer in Alleged $67 Million ‘Money Laundering’ Scheme   By Cristina Laila

June 3, 2024 5:00 pm – Damian Williams, the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) on Monday announced the unsealing of an indictment charging Weidong Guan, a/k/a “Bill Guan,” the Chief Financial Officer of conservative media company The Epoch Times with participating in a $67 million transnational money laundering scheme.

Bill Guan, 61, of Secaucus, New Jersey, is facing up to 80 years in prison.

He was charged with one count of conspiring to commit money laundering, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison, and two counts of bank fraud, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison.

Bill Guan was arrested on Sunday morning and appeared before a magistrate judge on Monday afternoon.

“As alleged, Bill Guan, the Chief Financial Officer of a global newspaper and media company, conspired with others to benefit himself, the media company, and its affiliates by laundering tens of millions of dollars in fraudulently obtained unemployment insurance benefits and other crime proceeds. When banks raised questions about the funds, Guan allegedly lied repeatedly and falsely claimed that the funds came from legitimate donations to the media company. Today’s charges reflect this Office’s ongoing commitment to vigorously enforcing the laws against those who facilitate fraud through money laundering and to protecting the integrity of the U.S. financial system,” the SDNY announced.

According to the unsealed indictment:

From at least in or about 2020, through in or about May 2024, GUAN, while working as the Chief Financial Officer of a multinational media company headquartered in New York, New York (the “Media Company”), conspired with others to participate in a sprawling, transnational scheme to launder at least approximately $67 million of illegally obtained funds to bank accounts in the names of the Media Company and related entities (together, with the Media Company, the “Media Entities”). In furtherance of the money laundering conspiracy, GUAN managed, among other teams, the Media Company’s “Make Money Online” team (the “MMO Team”), which was located in a particular foreign office of the Media Company. Under GUAN’s management, members of the MMO Team and others used cryptocurrency to knowingly purchase tens of millions of dollars in crime proceeds, including proceeds of fraudulently obtained unemployment insurance benefits, that had been loaded onto tens of thousands of prepaid debit cards. The crime proceeds were generally purchased by the scheme participants, including members of the MMO Team and others working with them, using a particular cryptocurrency platform, at discounted rates of approximately 70 to 80 cents per dollar, and in exchange for cryptocurrency.

Once the crime proceeds were purchased, the MMO Team and other participants in the scheme used stolen personal identification information to open accounts, including prepaid debit card accounts, cryptocurrency accounts, and bank accounts, that were used to transfer the crime proceeds into bank accounts associated with the Media Entities.  After the crime proceeds reached those bank accounts, they were often further laundered through other bank accounts held by the Media Entities, GUAN’s personal bank accounts, and through GUAN’s personal cryptocurrency accounts.

In or around the same time the money laundering scheme began, the Media Company’s internal financial accounting reflected an increased annual revenue over the previous year of approximately 410%—from approximately $15 million to approximately $62 million.  When banks asked GUAN about the increase in transactions entering the bank accounts of the Media Entities, GUAN lied, including to two U.S.-based banks, and claimed that the increase in funds came from donations.  However, in 2022, GUAN wrote a letter addressed to a congressional office falsely stating “donations” constitute “an insignificant portion of the overall revenue” of the Media Company.

The Epoch Times, like The Gateway Pundit, has been targeted by Big Tech for reporting the truth about the Russia collusion hoax.

Wikipedia banned TGP and Epoch Times for truthful reporting on Russiagate.

The Epoch Times has been censored and harassed for years.

On Monday, the Biden Regime indicted the CFO.

 

Clinton Judge Sentences 75-Year-Old Pro-Life Activist with ‘Significant Health Issues’ to Two Years in Prison for Peacefully Protesting Abortion Clinic   By Cristina Laila

June 3, 2024 4:00 pm – The Biden DOJ convicted Paula Harlow last year of federal conspiracy against rights and FACE offenses for peacefully protesting an abortion clinic in DC back in 2020.

US District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly, a Clinton appointee, sentenced Harlow to 24 months in prison.

She was the tenth defendant to be sentenced by the Biden Regime related to the peaceful abortion protest.

Paulette Harlow, who is 75 years old, participated in a peaceful protest at an abortion clinic in 2020 and didn’t hurt anyone.

Here is video of Paulette Harlow praying and peacefully protesting in an abortion clinic: https://twitter.com/i/status/1797623393912758415

According to Catholic News Agency, Harlow has significant health issues. Her husband fears she may die in prison.

“Paula Paulette Harlow, 75, of Kingston, Massachusetts, was sentenced in U.S. District Court today to 24 months incarceration for her role in a conspiracy that created a blockade at a Washington, D.C. reproductive health care clinic to prevent the clinic from providing, and patients from receiving, reproductive health services.” the DOJ said in a press release on Friday.

Two other elderly defendants in their 70s were sentenced to more than 2 years in prison each.

Joan Bell, 76 was sentenced to 27 months in prison and three years of supervised release and Jean Marshall, 74, was sentenced to 24 months and three years of supervised release.

EPIC! Marjorie Taylor Greene SNAPS! – Goes Off on George Floyd Worshipping Democrats – Calls for Fauci to Be Tried for Mass Murder and Crimes Against Humanity   (VIDEO)   By Jim Hoft

June 3, 2024 4:40 pm – The Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic called in Dr. Tony Fauci to testify on Monday, June 3, 2024, on his many lies and murderous policies that resulted in millions of deaths, thousands of bankrupties, abused and neglected children, and dangerous vaccines that continue to kill Americans by the day.

During the hearing Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene ripped apart Fauci on his malevolent lies, this time on the NIH making a killing from Big Pharma and his hypocrisy on mandates. She even held up a photo of him not wearing a mask during the pandemic and demanded he go to prison.

Following the hearing MTG had this to say about the godless Democrats and their total lack of honesty.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: Everything I said is correct. It’s how the American people feel. It’s what we know to be a fact. It’s all the evidence has been proven true. We have Jamie Raskin in there accusing us of worshiping Trump, worshiping as a convicted felon… Well, yes, so is George Floyd. You all, too, the media worships George Floyd. Democrats worship George Floyd. There were riots burning down the f*cking country over George Floyd, and Raskin is in there saying, We worship him?

Excuse me, let me correct you, and this is really important. I don’t worship Trump. I worship God. God, and Jesus is my savior. I don’t worship President Trump.  [Emphasis added]

I’m really sick and tired of the bullsh*t annex I have to deal with constantly from the Democrats. So that’s what we just went through in there. And then they’re sitting there, they can attack my character all day long. What’s his face in there? Whoever was talking last was calling me insane. But yet we can’t say, Oh, they’re attacking my character. Oh, no. It’s nonstop BS and annex.

You want to know why? The Democrats don’t have anything. They’re responsible for the lockdowns, forced vaccinations, kids being forced to stay home, people committing suicide, and all the horrors that this country lived through during COVID.

Fauci belongs in prison. He should be tried for mass murder, and he should be tried for crimes against humanity. That’s how I feel after that hearing. That’s how the American people feel. Excuse me.

Right on! That monster Fauci needs to face justice.

WATCH: Triggered Democrats Send Hearing into Chaos When Marjorie Taylor Greene Refuses to Address “Mr. Fauci” as ‘Doctor’ While Ripping Him Over His Evil Experiments and Lies   [VIDEO} By Cullen Linebarger

June 3, 2024 1:40 pm – As The Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson reported, the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic heard testimony at 10 AM ET in the Rayburn House Office Building from “Dr.” Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and face of sinister COVID-era lockdowns and fraudulent medical guidance.

Upon arrival at the Capitol, Fauci received some much-deserved heckling from conservative journalist, lawyer, and activist Ivan Raiklin, who unloaded on him with questions on his sick record of lies as he strolled away.

Things got worse for Fauci following lackluster grilling by GOPers and slobbering statements from Democrats when Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) got her shot at him. The beating was so severe it sent the hearing off-kilter as Democrats and Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-KY) erupted over her being too rude and not addressing Fauci as doctor.

Greene first ripped apart Fauci for signing off evil experiments torturing innocent dogs to death in the name of science.

WATCH: Fauci Trashes Conservative Media, Says the Unvaccinated Were Responsible for 200,000 to 300,000 Additional Covid Deaths   By Cristina Laila

June 3, 2024 2:00 pm – Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) on Monday testified before a House Select Subcommittee on the Covid origins, lockdowns and phony medical guidance.

Dr. Fauci was the face of the Covid lockdowns, unnecessary masking, social distancing, and lies about the ‘Wuhan lab leak’ theory.

During his testimony on Monday, citing faulty analysis by elitist media doctor and Covid vaccine promotor Dr. Peter Hotez, Fauci said the unvaccinated are responsible for an additional 200,000 – 300,000 COVID deaths.

There is zero evidence to back up Fauci’s claims whatsoever.

Fauci also trashed conservative media podcasters who cautioned against the experimental Covid vaccine and claimed they “harmed people.”

FAUCI HECKLED ENTERING US CAPITOL! – “Are You Sad You’re in the Number 3 Spot in Murdering People Behind Stalin and Hitler? …How Many People Do You Think You Murdered?  (Video)    By Jim Hoft

June 3, 2024 8:55 am – Dr. Tony Fauci, arguably one of the greatest monsters and killers in global history, will testify on Monday before the House Oversight Committee.

** The Gateway Pundit will offer live coverage of his testimony before Congress on our website.

On Monday Dr. Fauci was met at the door entering the US Capitol by conservative journalist, lawyer, and activist Ivan Raiklin who peppered him with questions on his disgusting record of lies as he walked by.

Ivan Raiklin: Hey, Tony, are you sad that you’re in the number three spot as it applies to murdering people throughout the entire world after Stalin and Hitler?

Sir, how many people do you think you murdered based on your policies, along with Mike Pence at the White House Coronavirus Task Group?

How much did Mike Pence know about your involvement in taking not only millions of dollars according to the documentation, but also you subsequently funding the Wuhan Institute of Virology that ended up destroying America’s economy, as well as destroying millions of people, whether it was through the Myocarditis-making jabs, the DNA mutilation injections that were never approved by the FDA. There was a bait-and-switch. It was legally distinct, meaning you were forcing the injections of the emergency use authorized products into our military service members that destroyed our readiness.

WATCH LIVE: Dr. Tony Fauci to Testify at 10 AM ET in House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic and His Many Lies That Destroyed Millions of Lives  By Jordan Conradson

June 3, 2024 8:30 am – The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic will hear testimony this morning in the Rayburn House Office Building from Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) and face of COVID-era lockdowns and phony medical guidance.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Fauci admitted in an interview with the Subcommittee earlier this year, that some of the most stringent COVID-19 guidelines, including social distancing and child masking, were not rooted in concrete scientific evidence.

Then, last month, the NIH finally admitted to funding gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the ground zero for the COVID-19 pandemic. This directly contradicts previous statements made under oath by Fauci that “The NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Additionally, as The Gateway Pundit reported this morning, Fauci was busted hiding emails revealing that the virus was likely man-made in early 2020 and paying off a doctor with NIAID funds.

Today’s hearing should be interesting…

BREAKING: Trump Calls on U.S. Supreme Court to Intervene After Being Convicted of a Made-Up Crime in Kangaroo Court   By Jim Hft

June 3, 2024 8:15 am – President Donald Trump has called upon the U.S. Supreme Court to intervene following his conviction on all counts in the politically motivated hush-money trial that concluded last week.

The timing of the sentencing hearing, conveniently scheduled just days before his renomination for the presidency at the Republican National Convention, adds another layer to the already thick fog of bias surrounding this case.

The sentencing was set for July 11—three days before the Republican convention!

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that sources within DA Bragg’s office disclosed to ‘The View’ co-host Sunny Hostin that Bragg may recommend Trump serve a year in the notorious Rikers Island.

“I spent this morning speaking to someone from the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office. They’re called street fighters. He believes that they will recommend a one-year term in prison. And that is because when you spend a year in prison in New York or under, you serve in Rikers Island,” Austin said.

Taking to his Truth Social platform, Trump lambasted the trial’s timing and the figures involved, characterizing his sentencing as orchestrated by “fascists” to undermine his influence before a major Republican gathering.

“The “Sentencing” for not having done anything wrong will be, conveniently for the Fascists, 4 days before the Republican National Convention. A Radical Left Soros backed D.A., who ran on a platform of “I will get Trump,” reporting to an “Acting” Local Judge, appointed by the Democrats, who is HIGHLY CONFLICTED, will make a decision which will determine the future of our Nation?” Trump wrote on Sunday.

“The United States Supreme Court MUST DECIDE!” he urged.

Judicial Watch Receives Records Detailing U.S. Air Force Drag Events Paid for By Taxpayers   By Margaret Flavin

June 2, 2024 5:20 pm – In May of 2023, Judicial Watch and CatholicVote filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request submitted to the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) regarding records of drag shows, drag story hours, and other pride events for military personnel and their dependent minors organized and paid for by the U.S. Air Force.

According to Judicial Watch, the DOD issued multiple “no records” responses to the FOIA before finally providing  25 pages of records.

Judicial Watch and Catholic Vote requested:

All emails and text messages sent to and from the Secretary of Defense, Lloyd J. Austin, III, the Deputy Secretary of Defense, Kathleen Hicks and the members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff regarding drag shows and drag story hours on U.S. military installations…

All Department of Defense documentation, including but not limited to PowerPoints, flyers, handouts, that were or are being used to promote any drag shows and drag story hours on U.S. military installations…

The documents include a June 10, 2021, social media post by the Ramstein & Vogelweh Air Force Libraries advertising a Drag Queen Story Time, a seven-week  “Drag Queen Storytime” summer reading program, Drag Queen Karaoke events, various other Pride events promoted by the U.S. Air Force.

The Air Force also paid for bingo and party events attended by drag queen “Miss Lexi Andrews,”  according to a $400 invoice that was included in the documents obtained in the FOIA.

Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton stated, “How on Earth is it appropriate to spend our limited defense dollars on promoting these sexually themed events for children and adults rather than on advancing the military’s mission. As we see in these troubling Air Force records, our nation’s military is being ruined by woke ideology.”

“The Department of Defense has once again proven that radical leftist ideology is more important than military preparedness and protecting Americans from tangible threats at home and abroad,” said Tim Huelskamp, Ph.D., CatholicVote Senior Advisor. “After an entire year of stonewalling, the DOD finally returned materials from just one command in one branch, which confirmed what we feared – that taxpayer funds were being used to promote drag shows and radical gender ideology on military bases, with full approval from Air Force leadership.”

Dramatic Increase in Turkish Illegal Aliens in San Diego Sector with Help of Smugglers on Social Media   By David Greyson

Jun. 2, 2024 5:00 pm – This is Joe Biden’s America.

In fiscal year 2021, there were about 1,400 Turkish illegal aliens that were apprehended at the southern border. The next two fiscal years, 2022 and 2023, showed a dramatic increase to about 15,000 for each of those years.

Last year, the majority of them entered through the San Diego Sector, which is now the busiest entry for illegals. We can thank California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom for that.

The New York Post had obtained social media posts from the site Telegram that explain that the California border is wide open compared to Texas which has taken action to secure its own section of the southern border.

Another message showed concern that, come November, the border could be shut down following the Presidential election. The reality is that smugglers and illegals know that if Trump wins, their operations will be severely limited.

New York Post reported:

The number of Turkish migrants crossing the southern border illegally has skyrocketed under the Biden administration, invited by smugglers who sell and organize crossings on social media boasting about how easy it is, The Post can reveal.

There were roughly 1,400 Turkish migrants encountered by border agents along the US-Mexico border in fiscal year 2021, which exploded to more than 15,000 each in fiscal years 2022 and 2023, according to federal data.

Most of the Turkish border crossers who came last year crossed into the San Diego border region — which earlier this year became the busiest entry point in the nation for migrants entering the US illegally.

Not only has the Biden regime failed to secure the border, they have also contradicted themselves. In March, crooked Joe Biden said he did not have the authority to take executive action.

“We need more forces on the border! I don’t have the authority to do that!” Biden shouted.

Jesse Watters: “There is Something Very Fishy About How Judge Mershon Came to Preside Over This Case”   [VIDEO 8:06]  By Margaret Flavin

Jun 2, 2024 4:20 pm – Just before the jury returned a guilty verdict in corrupt Judge Juan Merchan’s kangaroo court, without even specifying what crime President Trump committed, Fox News host Jesse Watters highlighted serious concerns about communist New York Judge Juan Merchan.

Watters: There’s something very fishy about how Judge Mershon came to preside over this case. There are 24 sitting judges who were supposed to be randomly selected from to take this case.

Judge Merchan wasn’t even on the list of judges.

He’s an acting judge.

And he’s not just a Biden donor. Judge Merchan donated to the Progressive Turnout Project and to an organization called Stop Trump, and he never recused himself.

Judge Merchan was allegedly randomly selected for the Trump Hush Money case, the Trump Organization Fraud case, and for the Steve Bannon case.

This is almost statistically impossible that an acting judge, not within the pool of sitting judges, who happens to be a stopped Trump donor, is randomly selected to all three of these Trump cases within the same year. It’s probably another conspiracy theory.

Just like the resistance left, fell in love with Fauci, Mueller, and Avenadi, they now have a man crush on Merchan.

MSNBC Clip: With respect to Judge Merchan,I felt like a man crush on him. He is, he’s such a great judge that it’s hard to see that the jurors wouldn’t have the same impression. You just keep on thinking, if you looked in a dictionary for judicial temperament, that’s what you get.

Watters: Judicial temperament? He kicked everybody out of a courtroom so he could yell at a defense witness who rolled his eyes and then threatened to throw the former President of the United States in jail for talking.

The judge is throwing a tantrum inside the courthouse, and the sitting President sends actors to throw tantrums outside the courthouse. He let a porn star suggest she was sexually assaulted and then told the jury, Oops, pretend you didn’t hear that. And then let Michael Cohen sell the jury anti-Trump T-shirts from the witness stand. No one knows what the heck is going on.

President Trump: The confusion is, nobody knows what the crime is because there’s no crime. Nobody knows what the crime is. The DA didn’t name the crime. They don’t know what the crime is. That’s what the problem is. It’s a disgrace, this thing, were to be ended immediately. The judge ought to end it and save his reputation.

Watters: The defendant has a constitutional right to know the crime he’s being charged with. You can’t tell him on the last day, and you can’t tell the jury the crime on the last day either.

And if the judge, witnesses, and the crowd can’t control their emotions, how can we expect the jury to put their emotions aside and use reason to decide this case?

Radical Barack Obama Comes Out of the Shadows and Announces Joe Biden’s Palestinian-Israel Policy – Democrats Are No Longer Hiding Who Is Really Calling the Shots   By Jim Hoft

Jun. 2, 2024 3:00 pm – For years, there have been “rumors” that Barack Obama is running the show for Joe Biden from behind the scenes.

Hat Tip Patty McMurray

Obama once said in a 2020 interview that he would be fine with running an election from his basement with an earpiece in his ear:

Barack Obama: “I used to say, if, if I could make an arrangement where I had a stand-in, a front man, a front woman and they had an earpiece in and I was in the basement in my sweats … I’d be fine with that.”

Obama made the appearance on “The Late Show” with Stephen Colbert and told the far left host that he never wished for a third term, but if he could have had a “stand-in” or a “front-man,” he wouldn’t have minded telling that person what to say.

And, for years there have been rumblings that it is Barack who is behind Joe Biden’s reckless and radical policies.

In March 2024, The New York Times article by Katie Rogers provided groundbreaking insight into Obama’s behind-the-scenes activities, suggesting a direct link between Biden and current actions by the regime to take out President Trump.

This past weekend Barack Obama finally made it official.

Barack Obama came out of the closet and announced Joe Biden’s Israel-Palestinian policy on Friday.

Obama announced Old Joe’s policy positions on X/Twitter.  The Democrats don’t even trust Joe Biden to tweet anymore!

Here is the full text:

Today, President Biden put forward a clear, realistic and just plan to establish an immediate ceasefire and end the war in Gaza – a plan that ensures Israel’s security, returns hostages taken on October 7th to their families, increases aid into Gaza and relieves the suffering of Palestinian civilians, and engages Israelis, Palestinians, Arab countries and the broader international community in the process of rebuilding Gaza.

A ceasefire alone won’t ease the terrible pain of Israelis whose loved ones were butchered or abducted by Hamas, or the Palestinians whose families have been shattered by the subsequent war. It won’t resolve the longstanding conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, or answer contentious issues surrounding a two-state solution or continuing settler activity in the West Bank. But what it can do is put a stop to the ongoing bloodshed, help families reunite and allow a surge of humanitarian aid to help desperate, hungry people. It can save lives, here and now – and it can lay the foundation for what will be a long and difficult road to a future in which Israel is secure and at peace with its neighbors, and Palestinians finally have the security, freedom and self-determination that they have sought for so long.

As the tragedy in Gaza has unfolded over the past eight months, we’ve witnessed an often fierce public debate here at home – and around the world – regarding how the United States should respond. But no matter where each of us stand in these broader debates, an enduring ceasefire is something we should all support – for the sake of Israelis, Palestinians and the world at large. I am deeply encouraged by the steady, tireless efforts of President Biden, Secretary of State Tony Blinken and our diplomatic team to bring this awful war to an end.

Can you imagine any other president allowing one of his predecessors to announce policy positions?  Somehow they want us to believe this is business as usual?

Barack is no longer worried about appearances. Everyone knows Joe Biden is a puppet for the radical Communist left.

In fact, this may be one of Barack’s most honest statements since entering politics!

 

Escobar: The West Is Hell-Bent On Provoking Russia Into Hot War   Authored by Pepe Escobar,

SATURDAY, JUN 01, 2024 – 07:00 AM – The warning by President Putin could not be starker: “In the event of the use of long-range weapons, the Russian Armed Forces will again have to make decisions about expanding the sanitary zone further (…) Do they want global conflict? It seemed they wanted to negotiate [with us], but we don’t see much desire to do this.”

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov then came up with the appropriate metaphor to designate NATO’s ramped-up military outbursts: not only NATO is raising the degree of escalation but delving into a warlike “ecstasy”.

It does not get more serious than that. “They”, as Putin alluded to, do seem to want “global conflict”. That’s at the heart of NATO’s new suicidal “ecstasy” strategy.

For all their circumlocutions, NATO Secretary Jens Stoltenberg, French President Emmanuel Macron, and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz have effectively greenlighted Kiev using Western weapons for attacks deep inside the Russian Federation. The alleged debate, still ongoing, is just a “smokescreen” for the real objective: a pretext that could lead to WWIII.

There’s no reason to think Kiev will stick to “limited” strikes against relatively unimportant targets. Instead, it is likely to target critical security infrastructure in hopes of provoking an unrelenting Russian response, which in turn would pave the way for NATO to invoke Article 5 and de facto engage in a Hot War.

Already on the Edge of Doom

The escalation “ecstasy” defined by Peskov went out of control since a – secret – new batch of ATACMS was dispatched to Kiev earlier this year, complemented with longer-range ATACMS. Kiev has been using them for serious hits on Russian air bases and key air defense nodes. These ATACMS fire missiles at Mach 3 speed: a serious challenge even for the best Russian air defense systems.

All that seems to point to a crucial decision enveloped in several layers of fog: as the incoming, cosmic NATO humiliation in the black soil of Novorossiya becomes self-evident day after day, the Western elites who really run the show are betting on provoking a full Hot War against Russia.

Richard H. Black, a former US senator from Virginia, offers a sobering analysis:

“This is a continuation of the pattern in which the NATO forces recognize they are losing the war in Ukraine, with the fragile lines of defense breaking, and the NATO response is to escalate. This is not accidental, but very deliberate. It is not the first attack on the Russian nuclear triad. The ideological folks are seeing their world crumbling, after flying the rainbow flag over conservative countries and [waging] perpetual wars. They are frantic and could escalate to nuclear war to get out of the bind. They are taking a series of baby steps, and respond that ‘they don’t do anything in response,’ and so they keep taking baby steps until one of them lands on a land mine and we are into World War III. (…) Putin is very aware of the disconnect in the West, who keep saying he is just saber rattling, but he is not—he is informing the West of the dangerous reality.”

In Russia, Senator Dmitry Rogozin, a former head of Roscosmos, directly warned Washington: “We are not just on the threshold, but already on the edge, beyond which, if the enemy is not stopped in such actions, an irreversible collapse of the strategic security of the nuclear powers will begin.”

General Evgeny Buzhinky advanced an ominous scenario: “I am sure that if the strikes of Taurus of ATACMS are very harmful for Russia, then I presume we will at least strike the logistical hub in the territory of Poland in Rzeszów” where the missiles are staged for delivery to Ukraine.

The connection in this case would be irreversible: Russia hits Poland; NATO invokes Article 5; WW3.

Be Careful What You Wish For

NATO warlike “ecstasy” is predictably cloaked in cowardice. For all the rhetorical garbage 24/7 about “we don’t want a war with Russia”, the facts point to NATO using Kiev to attack and try to destroy a wide range of Russian military assets. There’s also no denying the US Deep State’s role in enabling Kiev’s terror attacks against Russian civilians in the Donbass, Belgorod, and elsewhere.

Israelis: The Heroes of Our Time   by Nils A. Haug
June 2, 2024 at 5:00 am

  • The people of Israel are peace-loving. They do not eagerly seek to join battles, they do not desire to destroy and kill. Even so, they once again find themselves forced to defend their homeland, their faith, and their right to live in peace. Perturbingly, they are besieged by those who deny their right to exist. Terrorist organizations, such as Hamas and ISIS, in contrast, appear to be driven by aggression, at times even a lust for violence, believed by many to be divinely sanctioned.
  • At this time, however, Israelis seem to be alone in their task, and continually faced with obstacles their so-called allies place in the way of swift victory.
  • Apart from constantly negotiating the complex and vacillating policies of the current US administration, Israel’s efforts to fight on behalf of Western values are being seriously hampered by possibly well-meaning but naive politicians such as the leaders of Ireland, Norway, China and Spain, all of which last month recognized Palestinian State with no borders and governed by genocidal terrorists
  • Is Spain really ready to recognize an independent state of Catlonia?
  • Ireland, even at the height of its “Troubles” never suggested ridding its neighbour of the Scots, the British and the Welsh, and replacing them with Irish Catholics. Since October 7, racism in Ireland since has reportedly become exponentially worse.
  • Is China really about to officially recognize the independence of Taiwan, Hong Kong, Tibet or the Uyghurs?
  • The defenders of Israel are courageously overcoming challenges to their nation, their land and their faith. Israel is the only country in that part of the world embodying the institutions of democracy, individual freedom and human rights. Israel, like Ukraine and Taiwan, is worth fighting for. The citizens of Israel are sacrificing their lives so that we will not have to. The least we can do is get out of the way and be of help. They are heroes. They deserve our gratitude and support.

Tim Pool Abruptly Ends Live Stream as Lara Loomer Calls for Treason Charges and Death Penalty for Democrats Accused of Coup Against Donald Trump   By Jim Hft

June 1, 2024 11:00 am – Tim Pool, host of the YouTube show Timcast IRL, abruptly ended his livestream on Friday, according to the website Anarchist Federation.

This unexpected termination occurred as Laura Loomer advocated for the execution of Democrats whom she accuses of orchestrating a coup against Trump following his conviction in a recent bogus hush money trial.

During the show, Loomer passionately voiced her frustrations with the political forces aligned against Trump, calling for stark actions against these “traitors.”

“Wake up. Stop being nice to these people,” Loomer said. “I don’t give a sh*t about these people, their livelihood, their well-being, the well-being of their families, their little kids. I don’t give a sh*t. And that’s the mentality that everybody needs to have now in this country, because it is war. It is war.”

Pool echoed Loomer’s sentiments, asserting that there was “no question” that if Trump were reelected, he should start locking Democrats up.

“Should there be lists of Democrats who need to go to jail? 100%,” Pool said. “And the reason for that is they committed crimes… And the reason we can put them on trial is to show the whole world we will uncover what you’ve done. We will make sure everyone knows, and you will be held accountable for it.”

“Not just jail, they should get the death penalty,” Loomer said.

As Loomer began to call for the death penalty as punishment for treason, the live stream was suddenly cut off. The video disappeared from YouTube and was replaced with a disclaimer stating it had been “removed by the uploader.”

After the abrupt end of the live stream, one user asked Loomer who pulled the plug on the feed.

“Who pulled the feed? Was it Tim? It went down on YouTube and Rumble at the same time?” the user asked.

In her response, she confirmed that it was Pool who ended the stream when she called for treason charges and the death penalty for Democrats accused of plotting against Trump to prevent his YouTube account from being taken down due to her comments.

“Tim Pool had to cut the feed. He ended the stream when I said people who committed treason in our country (I was talking about the Democrats who staged a coup against Donald Trump) should be tried for TREASON and get the DEATH PENALTY,” Loomer wrote on X.

Kremlin: NATO Weapons To Be Hit In Any Country From Where Russia May Be Attacked   BY TYLER DURDEN

FRIDAY, MAY 31, 2024 – 10:00 AM – Predictably, the Kremlin is fuming at widespread reports that the Biden administration has made a U-turn on its policy which previously prohibited Ukraine from attack Russian soil with US-supplied weaponry.

Former Russian president and current Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev has warned that Russian forces could strike back from any point where attacks are launched, including on “NATO specialists” advising Ukraine forces.

“NATO countries that have approved strikes with their weapons on Russian territory should be aware that their equipment and specialists will be destroyed not only in Ukraine, but also at any point from where Russian territory is attacked,” he said on Telegram, according to TASS, also noting that “the participation of NATO specialists could be seen as a casus belli.”

“All their military equipment and specialists fighting against us will be destroyed both on the territory of former Ukraine and on the territory of other countries, should strikes be carried out from there against Russian territory,” Medvedev added in the warning.

He said that contrary to much of the West’s attempts to obfuscate the reality, Ukraine’s long-rage missile systems are actually “directly operated by servicemen from NATO countries.” He said this is tantamount to these countries’ direct participation in the war.

He explained that this raises the specter of major war and confrontation with the West, as in such a scenario where Russia attacks NATO personnel, the alliance would then have to weigh “possible retaliatory strikes… in the context of articles 4 and 5 of the Washington Treaty.

Politico reported Thursday afternoon, “The Biden administration has quietly given Ukraine permission to strike inside Russia — solely near the area of Kharkiv — using U.S.-provided weapons, two U.S. officials and two other people familiar with the move said Thursday, a major reversal that will help Ukraine to better defend its second-largest city.”

The same official stipulated that the policy of not allowing long-range strikes inside Russia “has not changed.” However, this is surely going to be a distinction without substance or meaning from Russia’s point of view, as it makes attacking Russia’s sovereign territory with US weaponry ‘allowable’ for the first time. Clearly it’s a highly dangerous slippery slope.

Other NATO countries have been openly advocating for hitting Russia with long-range missiles, and have even approved for Kiev to start doing so in a huge escalation. Denmark has even said it’s fine with Ukraine attacking Russia with Western-supplied F-16 jets.

Ukraine has been complaining that all restrictions need to be taken off if it is to defend against Russia’s recent major offensive in Kharkiv, which was launched from across the border. For example, Russian artillery is able to fire from rear positions within the Belgorod region near the border. It meanwhile remains part of Moscow’s stated aim to push the border deeper into Ukraine to create a ‘buffer zone’ – making it harder for pro-Kiev forces to shell Russian towns and villages.
