Litmus:
What does this bode for the next U.S. election?
With the likelihood of war-crimes charges hanging over Trumps head , should Democrats win, how realistic is the prospect of a fair election with the republicans now in office ?

The promise—or threat—made by Steve Bannon about Donald Trump securing a third term now appears disturbingly plausible.

Ho boy, are ordinary Americans this close to being royally bleeped.
Obama killing of Gadaffi is worse. How many people died before they got him.
I don't see any war crime. Leaders have been toppled in violent uprising from time immemorial.thia one was matched from.his bedroom.

If America gets to control Venezuela oil ,then the middle east will have to go begging him.
I'm told Trump is trying to get an offshore Nigeria oil deal .It's shorter than the ME and there are no tough headed belligerents like the Iranisns,Houthi and Sonali pirates.

With Nigeria ,West Africa and Venezuela,the ME loses leverage with America.
Probably they will add a Trump name to the Bujr Khalifa

Terrorist Americans have started bombing a peaceful country again.

Venezuela a peaceful country barely on the news for anything bad.
I had mentioned weeks ago that the target is China. Venezuela owes America more than it owes to China .
Granted most cocaine from Colombia goes through Mexico,the one to the east coast( 30% ) goes through 1800km of Venezuela coast line.
China is now more isolated . It lends billions to Venezuela,then gets cheap oil in return.
I highly doubt Venezuelans are in the streets protesting.

Last election,exit polls had him thoroughly beaten only for him to declared the winner.
The majority din't want Maduro.
The worst a new president will do is disband the army. It's very dangerous to have tens /hundreds of thousands disgruntled military trained soldiers jobless .
It happened in Iraq,those Baathists joined Zarqawi and later Al Baghdadi.

Maduro captured and flown to America to face charges.

A liberal judge will rule the invasion was illegal and Maduro should be returned to Venezuela.

The prices of cocaine will go up,the democrats now have another product to add to their list of commodity price increase.y

Jack Smith deposition by the House committee.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24pm7H24xik

His case was dismissed by a foreign born Obama Judge Chutkan, by now it would be going on had he not won.

Jack Smith predicate is that people around Trump told him he had lost and he refused to believe them..Chief among them Traitor Pence. Jack smith argues that since Trump knew in his mind,he committed fraud on the people by insisting he was rigged out. With that argument Jack Smith claims trump lacked first amendment rights to protest the election.

Transcript here.

Jack Smith smith is cunning, ,he should have investigated Joe Biden win first.

If 100 people tell you a chicken is a frog ,that don't make it a frog.
Jack smith was going to prosecute what he thought was on Trump's mind based on what vampires like Pence and Bill Barr were telling him.

This is Government spending bozo, not deficit

You claim you are cutting waste yet spending is higher than the wasteful people you took over from.
There is mandatory spending that grows every year.
Obamacare spending , that was invented by St Jesus of Chicago is one of them.
You may also be aware that both houses always sneak in provisions when passing Continuing Resolutions.

He is a nut job. He is no different from Candace and Alex Jones. Think about it, the job of the CIA is to infiltrate, I can make theories and claims as well.
A broken clock is right twice a day.

The existence of extensive CIA activities involving the recruitment of journalists and manipulation of media content during the Cold War is a documented historical fact, confirmed by congressional investigations and declassified documents.
The specifics of these activities were revealed during the 1975 Church Committee hearings and a 1977 Rolling Stone exposé by Carl Bernstein

Raumdeuter, do you care to point out the impact of DOGE on National spending, past the soundbites about Colombian bellydancers and gay Sri-Lankan frogs.
The US economy is designed to run deficits exponentially. DOGE is still cutting wasteful contracts but not enough to reduce the debt
If Kamala had won the debt would be much more.

The following states have been sued by the DOJ for refusing to turn over their voter rolls.

Arizona
California
Colorado
Connecticut
Delaware
District of Columbia
Georgia
Hawaii
Illinois
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
Michigan
Minnesota
Nevada
New Hampshire
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
Oregon
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
Vermont
Washington
Wisconsin

Only 3 of the above have Republican Governors .The rest are democrat controlled. Their excuse is that they will hand over private data. The FBI is under DOJ, it has more private data about the voters than the states do , their excuse is pathetic.
They won't produce voter rolls because there are fraudulent entries.

Democrats are hypocrites. .

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/justice-department/justice-department-5-million-pages-jeffrey-epstein-files-trump-rcna251702

The Justice Department is scrambling to review about 5.2 million pages related to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to comply with a law passed by Congress, a source familiar with the operation told NBC News on Tuesday night.

That number is much higher than previously known.

The Justice Department was seeking to enlist roughly 400 employees in the effort to sift through the records, which is expected to run from Friday to Jan. 20, two sources familiar with the plan told NBC News.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said Wednesday that lawyers from department’s headquarters, the FBI, the Southern District of Florida and the Southern District of New York “are working around the clock through the holidays, including Christmas and New Years, to review documents in compliance with federal law.”


5.2 million pages. They will surely get Trump.

Hi
FoolishBoy419:
JUST IN: Trump used his first veto to block a unanimously approved Colorado drinking water project.

Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert, whose district the pipeline project is in, slammed Trump, suggesting it was retaliation for her signing the discharge petition to release the Epstein files, saying:

“Nothing says ‘America First’ like denying clean drinking water to 50,000 people in Southeast Colorado, many of whom enthusiastically voted for him in all three elections…I sincerely hope this veto has nothing to do with political retaliation for calling out corruption and demanding accountability. Americans deserve leadership that puts people over politics.”
Impeach Drumph.

If you thought liberals import immigrants or demand illegals to be granted citizenship to improve the west, you are living a lie.
Liberals need immigrants especially Muslim for their block votes. They will put them on welfare and close their eyes to fraud because that vote is important to keep the evil conservatives away from power.
Liberals also need Muslims to keep christians in check.

#news Minnesota Attorney General admits that Somalians were imported to vote Democrat & are vital to Democrats winning elections
#minnesota
“Well, the Somali community is critical. In my own election, I wouldn't be in office without the help of the Somali community.
#minneapolis
AG General Keith Ellison - who was caught on audio promising to protect Somali migrant Fraudsters for campaign cash - admitted on a now resurfaced video that the Somalians were imported to vote for Democrats.
#Somalia
Ellison details how they go out and ballot harvest for Democrats, and are utilized in several states to get Democrats elected.

Critics say that Ellison has admitted that Democratic policies on "refugee resettlement" have always been focused on importing votes, and stealing elections.

"I wouldn't be in office without the help of the Somali community. Somali voters came out and were able to register people. Very recently there was several thousand who were just naturalized as U.S. citizens"

"Somalis could make the election And I can tell you without a doubt it's not just in Minnesota that Somalis are making a big difference In elections"

"And Ohio which is a battleground state. Somalians that are In Columbus Ohio and Virginia all have a very Big Role to play In Elections"

"We are counting on the Somali community to get involved, stay Involved, vote and help others vote"

"On my campaign We Have Tremendous Leaders ... who are out Gathering In Somali voters"

"The Somali Community plays A critical role Not just in Minnesota But An Ohio And Virginia . So Call your Relatives"
#ChristinaAguayoNews
Somali refugees were imported in large numbers during the 1990s with Minnesota emerging as a primary resettlement hub.

Then Obama imported another massive round of Somalis.

In Minnesota alone there are more than 100,000 Somali migrants - however an investigation revealed that half of those migrants committed immigration fraud.

Ellison's call to action extends beyond Minnesota, noting Somalis' potential to "swing" elections in Ohio and Virginia—states with sizable Somali populations.

Ohio hosts the second-largest Somali community in the U.S., around 55,000, primarily located in Columbus,
#Ohio
Virginia's Somali population, though smaller, has influenced races in areas like Northern Virginia.
#Virginia


I have no problem at all with immigration. I disagree with liberals on their own reasons. Some immigrants are out to bring down the west, the foolish liberals think the crocodiles will eat them last when they are deposed from power.As it eventually will happen .
East Asian economies ,Korea,China, Japan continue to grow without immigration,the liberals justification falls flat on it's face .
