So Trump orders a new census excluding non citizens. Democrats are in uproar.
Don't know much but the constitution says everyone should be counted. When drawing up congressional districts population is key.
Apparently if only non citizens are considered, democrats stand to losr upto 30 house seats
Speaking of which Texas plan to redraw the congressional districts was hit by democrats fleeing the state to prevent quorum. They will lose their seats, the governor has the power. The Texas AG has opened investigations into the PAC that paid $15,000 charter plane owned by Betto O'Rourke and a Soros non profit
Candy girl is saying gerrymandering is against democracy. The democrats have been doing it. California also plans to redraw the maps to recover their loss.

It's a waste of support for corruption. Its not like blacks or Nigerians would gain anything from Trump.

I expend my time bashing liberals. The most evil liberal is Obama.
I also detour to attack terrorist and their prime motivator. Obama stance on terrorists is lukewarm.
Speaking of which, how did Obama get into Harvard as a transfer student from Occidental ,then Columbia with average grades ( GPA 2-3.2 ). Did he apply as a foreign student,yet is an American born citizen? Why are all his academic records sealed?

The IDF is not putting out numbers.
Only one side is and the numbers are lies.
By IDF estimates earlier on the number if terrorists eliminated we're almost a 1:1 ratio despite Hamas hiding among civilians, dressed as civilians, shooting from hospitals, mosques and busy outdoor public areas
The acceptable ratio of combatants vs civilians killed in a war has never been defined.

---This list of names are just a distraction---suprised that Barack and Michelle Obama, Joe and Jill Biden, Hunter Biden are not on the list---

---MAGA House Committee Chairman Comer---should also subpoena the following people---


Pam Bondi, who was the Florida AG - during the time when Epstein was charged
Alexander Acosta, Federal Attorney who worked on the Epstein case (Labor Secretary under Felon 47's first term) and who arranged the plea deal which Ghislane Maxwell wants to use at the Supreme Court to get some prison term reduction
Alan Dershowitz, who was a member of Epstein's defense team
Felon 47 as himself, for being a close associate and confidant of Epstein
You have no interest in paedos getting their day
Kash Patel

Just think about this,” Patel said. “Me, as director of the FBI, the former ‘Russiagate guy,’ when I first got to the bureau, found a room Comey and others hid from the world in the Hoover Building — full of documents and computer hard drives no one had ever seen. They locked the door, hid access, and just said, ‘No one’s ever gonna find this place.’”


Those documents included Spygate and Epstein. The documents were shared with James Comer resulting in those subpoenas. 8 former AGs ,2 Former FBI directors plus the Billarys .

(_Ghislaine meanwhile has Sid she never saw Trump doing anything bad
_Robert Mueller is in a mental health care unit )

The spotlight is on them for now.

Bemeruca. I have seen this about Epstein.
Jeffrey Epstein was the “fixer”, “money launder” for Iran Contra. Who was running Iran Contra? G. H. W. Bush. Bush hired Bill Barr as his AG to “clean up” Iran Contra.
Fast forward to March 2005, the Palm Beach Police chief opens an investigation that is stymied over the course of a year. Jeb Bush happened to be the Governor of FL. and Charles Christ was the FL AG.
Of course, Bush Jr was the President and GHWB was alive at the time. Alex Acosta left the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ ,appointed by Bush Jr in June 2005 to become the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida .
Robert Mueller is FBI Director from 2001-2013.

I’m pretty sure the Bush clan, and Bill Barr were well acquainted with Jeffery Epstein based on Iran Contra.

It's funny how the thieves were the ones investigating Trump

Senator Adam Schiff is under CRIMINAL investigation by the US Attorney in Maryland for mortgage fraud, and it quite literally couldn't happen to a nicer person.
Sadly so. He was feted by the media as he lied day in day out about having seen irrevocable evidence of Russia collusion.Mark you this Schiff is a lawyer, he knows he's breaking the law repeatedly lying about his primary residence on official documents.

Feedthenation. House oversight committee has issued subpoenas to some big shots. Some documents were found in burn bags at a secret FBI secure room (thanks to a whistleblower ) containing thousandsof documents. I believe the evidence intended for destruction ihas resulted in the following subpoenas.

House Committee on Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer issued subpoenas to the following 10 individuals for depositions related to Jeffrey Epstein's crimes,
_William Barr (U.S. Attorney General, 1991–1993, 2019–2020) - August 18, 2025
_Alberto Gonzales (U.S. Attorney General, 2005–2007) - August 26, 2025
_Jeff Sessions (U.S. Attorney General, 2017–2018) - August 28, 2025
_Loretta Lynch (U.S. Attorney General, 2015–2017) - September 9, 2025
_Eric Holder (U.S. Attorney General, 2009–2015) - September 30, 2025
_Merrick Garland (U.S. Attorney General, 2021–2025) - October 2, 2025
_Hillary Clinton (Former Secretary of State) - October 9, 2025
_Bill Clinton (Former President) - October 9, 2025
_James Comey (FBI Director, 2013–2017) - October 9, 2025
_Robert Mueller (FBI Director, 2001–2013) - October 9, 2025


Very strange they want previous Attorney Generals , FBI directors.abd the Billarys. If you look at the order of the dates ,the last 4 are summoned in sane day, sine will most likely suffer severe loss of memory. .Some might in ICU blaming the covid vaccine. They are all expected to preemptively plead the 5th on every question

Epstein was an FBI asset without being told he was. Did the FBI protect the Billarys.

Grand jury to investigate Russia hoax and Spygate empaneled. A grand jury investigates and indicts.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/doj-launching-grand-jury-investigation-russiagate-conspiracy-allegations-source

Brennan, Comey ,Clapper , Obama and the rest of the plotters are now officially under grand jury investigation. Lawyers don't come cheap, $1000 - 2000 an hour for these top tier crooks. If they expected laundered money from USAID to offset their bills, that spigot has been turned off.

If there are charges in Washington DC ,no democrat will ever get convicted. The 93% Democrat jury pool will see to that.
The Mar a Lago raid is connected to the Spygate ( they wanted any documents that would have exposed their roles) . The indictment if to succeed should be in Florida.

What goes around comes around.
Call this a conspiracy theory too when the criminals are already lawyering up. I have no mercy for them, may the fleas of a thousand camels infest their armpits and crotches.

Joe Biden FBI had ordered Google to reveal personal data of several senior Trump aides.
https://pjmedia.com/matt-margolis/2025/08/04/lawfare-at-its-finest-bidens-doj-secretly-targeted-trumps-inner-circle-n4942383

These are
Dan Scavino Jr. - Former Trump White House aide who posted about receiving a covert warning from the DOJ.
Kash Patel - Current FBI Director, who revealed he also received a similar covert warning.
Jeff Clark - Former acting administrator at the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, who stated he received a similar message and had his emails reviewed by a Jack Smith team, with alleged disregard for his religious pastor privilege, marital privilege, and other privileges.


Google did not inform them because a DC court had ordered this to be done in secret
Conclusion:
FBI is so non partisan that it badly wanted Trump to win 2024 so that he could expose all their criminal acts 😆😆😆

WOW! CNN has finally admitted it: Donald Trump is the "most influential president this century."

Tariffs. A historic net migration decline. And a ton of executive orders.

"Trump's remaking the United States of America."

"We can start there with tariffs. What are we talking about? No TACO for Trump. The effective tariff rate, get this, 18%. It is the highest, the highest since the 1930s up from, get this, just 2% last year...I can't think of a more influential president during this century and it starts here with tariffs! He said he was going to raise tariffs and despite the claims otherwise, he is in fact doing that."

"The other big thing that Trump ran on was immigration. How about net migration? It's gonna be down at least 60%! We may be dealing with, get this, negative NET MIGRATION to the United States in 2025. That would be the first time there is negative net migration in this country in at 50 YEARS!"

"We're talking about down from 2.8 million in 2024."

"Already, 180 executive orders signed by Donald Trump this year. You have to go all the way back to the FDR administration once again to find a year in which there were as many executive orders signed as we have this year."

"To give you an idea, Biden during his first year signed 77. That's the entire year. We're only a little bit more than halfway through this year."

"Love it, like it, or lump it. He has been tremendously influential to a historic degree.
Can't hide a burning flame .

Remember not long ago

They told us married women who changed their names wont be able to vote. That turned out to be a lie

They told us there was going to be a federal abortion ban, that turned out to be a lie

They told us there was going to be a recession and everyone's 401k will crash, we'll stock market is at record highs

They told us Trump was leading us into WW3 with Iran and that never happened

They told us Trump was going to undo same sex marriage, that never happened and turned into another lie

They claimed inter racial marriage would be banned that was another lie

Then the lie about people losing their Healthcare in what was a replica of the Clinton bill in 1996 that had a similar work requirement or even volunteer to get medicaid

Pompeo Disagreed with Trump on some stuff, but Trump's 1st term was a success because of the role he played.
He has no dealings with the FBI. I think you should pull back from a lot of things you take from the right.

Mike Pence was loyal to Trump. Their disagreement and feud came after the election.
Bill Barr is questionable, but there was little he could do with the special counsel running the Russia collusion nonsense. He has no choice but to let it play out. which the Obama guys drag for almost the whole of Trump's tenure.

They are accusing Musk of the same thing. Musk was loyal to Trump, but when a disagreement and feud arose, that does not constitute evidence of a conspiracy to undermine Trump's presidency. eg, Steve Bannon has been saying all sorts of nonsense about Elon Musk.

So the link you posted does not prove Pompeo knew what was going on in the FBI.

Mike Pence and Steve Bannon Recommended Pompeo. Will you say Steve Bannon in the conspiracy as well?
What Ratcliff released Pompeo should have known. Unless the CIA staffers hid it from him,which I doubt. Pompeo didn't know this ? https://larryvip.substack.com/p/declassified-durham-annex-evidence

Mike Pence should have protected Flynn, he didn't. Pence likely knew about the Locker Room video, together with Paul Ryan.
Bill Barr lied about investigating 2020 elections while he personally ordered ah investigator to stop.
I'll leave that open for now,I'll revisit later.
Don't mean they are democrat moles ,they are more like traditional republicans who sneer at Trump's way of doing things. TBH Trump is a jackass at times. Pence said he would not dine with any woman unless his wife was present.

He knew it all.. Many of Trumps appointment were just there to stab him in the back in pursuit of their own agenda.
Bill Barr also knew everything, but he kept quiet.
Gina Haspel. She was London CIA Chief when FBI visited there after hearing reports that Australian diplomat had held a dinner with Papadopoulos.
“On July 31st, 2016 the FBI opened a counterintelligence investigation against the Trump campaign. They did not inform congress until March 2017. •At the beginning of August (1st-3rd) 2016 FBI Agent Peter Strzok traveled to London, England for interviews with UK intelligence officials. •On August 15th, 2016 Peter Strzok sends a text message to DOJ Lawyer Lisa Page describing the “insurance policy“, needed in case Hillary Clinton were to lose the election.

Effectively a lot of people ,from.Paul Ryan to Mike Pence worked behind the scenes to get rid of Trump.

China has announced an immediate, nationwide prohibition on cryptocurrency trading, mining and all related services, marking its most sweeping action against the sector to date. The move, disclosed on 3 August, extends earlier piecemeal restrictions into an outright ban that covers exchanges, over-the-counter platforms and mining operations.

Regulators said the decision was driven by mounting concerns over financial stability, the potential for capital flight and the significant energy consumption tied to large-scale mining. The statement did not specify enforcement measures, but prior crackdowns have included the closure of domestic exchanges and the expulsion of miners from key provinces.

HOO BOY: Dems Could Lose 25 House Seats If SCOTUS Ends Race-Based Gerrymandering


The Supreme Court is poised to rehear Louisiana v. Callais, a case involving revised Congressional maps that created two Black-majority districts in a state where Blacks are 1/3 of the population. Race-based gerrymandering falls under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, a tool that allows challenges to racial discrimination in voting laws.

If -- and that's a big if -- SCOTUS limits or redefines Section 2, it could spell bad news for Democrats.


25 seats is huge number. I have seen democrats say the ruling president usually loses the house or Senate in the midterms

Fyi. The goal of government jobs isn't to make profit, but to fulfill services.
The services that the fired employees offered were essential that's why there are things like:
-lack of flood warnings,
-huge increases in wait times for seniors seeking Social Security, (forcing the agency to slot in other untrained employees from other departments which decreased the efficiency and has a cost in itself in new training and further deficiencies in the departments they came from)
and of course, agencies scrambling to hire employees back.

You live in this weird world, where facts and logic don't matter.
You seem not to understand how the government works. Or you do and you're doing your intellectual dishonest thing again.

In 2017/18, I proved the Steele Dossier was fictitious intelligence, weaponized by corrupt FBI officials to deceive a federal judge and unlawfully spy on then presidential candidate Trump’s campaign- all paid for by his opponent.

The media called me a liar.

Now I’m the FBI Director:
We just uncovered burn bags/room filled with hidden Russia Gate files, including the Durham annex, and declassified them.

Once again, I released the prior FBI’s own documents and exposed the truth.

The same media is calling me a liar again.
Maybe this FBI will release more docs directly, from FBI HQ... so we can see who is lying- wouldn't want to deprive the fake news of more bogus Pulitzers.

And then…

I have a stinky feeling Ben Rhodes was or is still coordinating the main stream media. He was the best Obama propagandist. Anytime an issue cropped up,he could on the fly immediately craft talking points for media and democrats to use. He was present in a Dec 9 2016 meeting chaired by Susan Rice which reviewed intelligence community assessment that Russia didn't interfere in 2016 elections . They faked a new narrative.
