Bro, it's not a secret Tucker hates the US. It's clear for everyone to see. He lies and says all kinds of nonsense. He was on tape saying he hates Trump with passion. He is a grifter
Tucker at Fox was one of the very few who spoke their minds. After he left , I no longer rate him highly.

Dr Kirk Moore. Facing 35 years for destruction of govt property. He destroyed $28K worth of COVID vaccines and filed records indicating he had vaxxed those who came to him.
These were people who were required to get vaxxed before going to school , work, travel some even about to be operated on. He had everyone's consent, injecting children with saline water to make them think they were vaxxed.
In other words he obeyed his Hippocrates Oath of 'doing no hatm'.
His trial begins tomorrow.

Indictment reads..

The defendants allegedly destroyed at least $28,028.50 worth of government-provided COVID-19 vaccines, and distributed at least 1,937 doses’ worth of fraudulently completed vaccination record cards to others in exchange for either direct cash payments or required “donations” to a specified charitable organization, without administering a COVID-19 vaccine to the card recipient. As charged in court documents, defendants also administered saline shots to minors – at the request of their parents – so children would think they were receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.

Elon Musk to form a new party.
I believe that's a good thing. A single congressman or Senator can block a bill , or arm twist the administration to include illogical demands.
By Elon Musk reasoning, the slim majorities in congress and Senate forces the govt to give in , resulting in porky bills.
Analysts had predicted a fallout way back in January between Musk and Trump.
Both want the same thing at the end , one is not in politics however.

The charlatan Obama was behind the efforts to frame Trump as a Russian stooge.

DEVELOPING: Sources tell me OBAMA's fingerprints are all over Brennan's post-2016 election Intelligence Community Assessment/Putin-Trump frameup scandal, which leads directly back to the White House and Susan Rice, Lisa Monaco,Celeste Wallander. Biden also was in on the briefings

NEW: U.S. intelligence official: "Obama ordered the ICA to set Trump up and knock him off balance before he could even get started. This was an influence operation far more consequential than anything Putin cooked up. Obama and Hillary schemed the op, and the CIA and FBI ran it."

When will democrats Brennan, Comey and Ckapper be hauled in for questioning.They will definitely implicate Obama and Hillary Clinton.

They tried to stop him from winning 2016, when he won they tried to remove him. When that failed they stole 2020, then tried to jail him,that failed,they tried to prevent his running ,that failed so they tried to kill him.Twice.

An independent prosecutor should be appointed to investigate the deep state criminal cabal, should go all the way to Biden Clinton and Obama.
After all noone is above the law. If they committed crimes they should be prosecuted.

(Maybe why Mitchell Obama doesn't want to be stained by whatever will be revealed eventually).
( When Trump visited Alligator Alcatraz he fumed ,,, ' that SoB Biden wanted me here' or something like that).

---But MAGAs were happy when Tucker Carlson interviewed Putin last year---to spite Biden---
Tucker was being paid $25 million a year by Fox.. It's very hard to make it that kind of money unless you have some big company .
He has to go to bed with anyone who will pay him, although X pays him for his traffic it can't be any where close to what he was making before .

Who sits on the board of Fox? Paul Ryan, former House Speaker. Paul , Traitor Pence and Billy Bush leaked the locker room tape hoping to lock Trump out at the RNC convention. When Tucker started releasing the Jan 6 video tapes, Fox stopped him leading to his exit from Fox.
This is for my own reference,I don't expect you to understand whatever it means.

So much winning for me and the country

You notice that all those worried about Stock market have been shut up
Gas prices are low

And the BBB is so much winning.
It made the 2017 tax cut permanent
SALT deductions increased from $10k to $40k which affects your property tax deductions
No tax on overtime and tips

You see it's focused on keeping more money in the hand of Americans

I am almost telling Trump that this is so much winning but he wont let us be he just wants us to keep winning more and more
And this too.

American baby born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028, will receive a $1,000–seeded tax‑deferred “Trump Account.”

Parents can add up to $5,000 annually, invested in low‑cost U.S. index funds, to support college, homeownership, or entrepreneurship.

Another Reason to hate Obama.

In 2012, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized the second phase of the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards for model years 2017–2025. These standards aimed to increase the fleet-wide average fuel economy for passenger cars and light trucks to 54.5 mpg by 2025, nearly doubling the 2010 average of 27.5 mpg.

Failure to achieve there was a fibe.
Rate: The fine was $5.50 per 0.1 mpg shortfall per vehicle sold, calculated based on the difference between the manufacturer's fleet average and the CAFE target for that model year. This penalty rate was established under the original CAFE program and adjusted over time.

The penalties applied to model years starting in 2017, with the requirements progressively increasing through 2025 to reach the 54.5 mpg target. Fines were assessed annually based on each manufacturer's fleet performance for a given model year.



This was just Insanity. Only hybrid cars can achieve that. A manufacturer selling 100,000 new cars rated at 50 mpg would be fined &25 million in Dec 2025.

The OBBB has set the fine to $0. Car manufacturers ought to be happy. They don't need to be forced to go electric , or make their cars more expensive .
Literally the target was to control the transportation sector. More govt in people's lives.

** I have been planning to import big engine trucks once these EV mandates come into effect**

My thoughts about modern warfare .
After WW2 and independence of national states the western methods of fighting significantly changed with some rules of engagement. They prioritized humane treatment of war prisoners, outlawed torture and protection of civilians in war zones.
Sadly today the Muslim armies are still fighting like medievals. Their wars often involves serious war crimes involving massacres and attrition warfare.They parade captured soldiers on national Television.Their wars still have religion as a driving force .
I don't have to give any examples.

Obedience40:
According to multiple sources, the total civilian casualties of the failed Soviet Union invasion of Afghanistan is close to 3 million, The war lasted for 9 years, The war fought by the Soviet Union was an asymmetric war like the one being fought currently in Gaza, In 9 years about 3 million Afghans loss their lives that's about 300,000 deaths each year, any war were the the adversary is not a normal conventional army but an insurgency entity, it is very hard to keep civilian casualties at a bare minimum, Hamas don't have military bases, they don't put on uniforms, the battlefield isn't defind, they are no frontlines, no supply channels, no definite structured territory, no humanitarian corridors, no nothing

Yet our friends here are expecting that the casualties recorded should be ten civilians
I don't believe 50000 have died in Gaza.
One, they only say women and children were killed.. IDF doesn't go into buildings shooting unarmed civilians. They respond to attacks of suspected terrorists shooting guns, bullets or rockets. IDF knows how many Hamas terrorists they have shot and killed. They estimate over 20000 active Hamas have been killed. By earlier estimates it was a 1:1 ratio ,high because Hamas fights as civilians,while using them.as human shields.
Anything from Hamas and media in Gaza is a wildly exaggerated lie.
Some time ago Hamas released names of the dead, when IDF checked cellphone data , many were still alive.
Where are the burials . The cemetries of those buried. If they had buried that many women and children we would see videos of the burials. They always show wounded people and gory images of bodies on TV ,they would not hide 50000 cemetries.

About numbers maybe someone can tell us about just wars. How many military combatants compared to civilians should die in a conflict.What rate is acceptable.

Mamdani explains how to solve the housing crisis. Video from 2021



To go further toward the Vienna model, we have to go beyond the market. We can establish community land trusts to gradually buy up housing on the private market and convert it to community ownership. We can give tenants a right of first refusal to buy out their landlords when buildings go up for sale. And we can fully commit to a new era of social housing, ending subsidies for luxury housing development and using our wealth to build beautiful, high-quality social housing projects that offer good homes and strong communities to everyone. We won’t decommodify housing overnight, but we know what we have to.

When as mayor he starts buying up private housing, he will obviously not allow inbestments in real estate.
Communism doesn't get better. Housing controlled by the govt.
Letitia James who chets on her mortgage refinance to be the overseer.
Not forgetting he is proposing a 4 year rent freeze. This will definitely kill and bury investments.

Refreshing that Secretary of State understands the true intentions of the Ayatollahs.
Marco Rubio speaking about Radical Islam and Iran:

“According to their interpretation of prophecy, they believe that it is their calling to trigger this apocalyptic showdown. And therefore, when they recruit fighters, what they are recruiting them for is to be a part of this army that is going to trigger this final showdown between the West and Islam. That Islam will win, and then the whole world will be governed under their set of rules, led by the emergence of the 12th Imam, the Mahdi, their messianic figure.

Why is this important for us to understand, and why is that important for the next Secretary of State to understand? Because when you understand it, you realize these are not people you can negotiate with. These are individuals with an apocalyptic vision of the future, and they will not stop until they feel they have succeeded in triggering this apocalypse.

by the way, it is similar to the views held by the Ayatollah in Iran. And so when people that have an apocalyptic vision of the future are growing in their capabilities, in the case of ISIS, or trying to acquire a nuclear weapon, in the case of Iran, you understand why it is that in many cases diplomacy and engagement does not work.
Reason Ayatollahs should never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.
"Death to America, Death to Israel" is not just a slogan . It's a mission statement.
" From the River to the Sea" should also be understood exactly what it means. Eliminating and exterminating the last Jew.

The review identified “multiple procedural anomalies” that undermined the credibility of the ICA, including “a highly compressed production timeline, stringent compartmentation, and excessive involvement of agency heads.”

It also questioned the exclusion of key intelligence agencies and said media leaks may have influenced analysts to conform to a false narrative of Trump-Russia collusion.

“The rushed timeline to publish both classified and unclassified versions before the presidential transition raised questions about a potential political motive behind the White House tasking and timeline.”

Faucci ought be scared when the health secretary says this.

🚨 RFK JR says Dr. Anthony Fauci funded something called “The seamless ligation technique, aka the "no-see'm" method”, which was a Technique Designed to HIDE Evidence of Human Tampering with a Virus

And he gave this technique to the Chinese Government.

“What is the public health rationale for doing that?”

The technique was developed by Dr. Ralph Baric at the University of North Carolina, and funded through the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).

This “Seamless ligation technique” allows for the assembly of viral genomes or DNA fragments without leaving obvious genetic signatures of laboratory manipulation, which can make it difficult to distinguish between naturally occurring and lab-engineered organisms.





More from the interview.

RFK Jr. accused Fauci of creating COVID-19.

Claimed CDC buried study linking vaccines to autism.

Proposed "truth commission" to investigate Fauci's actions.

Revealed Trump’s empathy surprised him, not a narcissist.

Plans AI-driven overhaul for faster FDA drug approvals.

Criticized vaccine approval process for perverse incentives.

Fired entire CDC vaccine advisory committee.

Aims to revolutionize Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.

Suggested Trump cries hearing Pavarotti’s music.

Praised Rubio’s shift to America First policy.
