Calls to fire Wallace MSNBC who callously politicized a child battling cancer are rising.
I had ignored this cancer story but some here have made me look at it afresh . If it wasn't for that child who was honoured by Trump there would be no talk of cancer research.
Both of them are trying to water down her comments Diverting attention from Nicole Wallace garbage.
Nicole Wallace has to go.
Shame on you , you know yourselves

USAID contractors are about to get their money..
Question is. If part of that money $2B is to pay a fraudulent service or contract, Who will be held responsible?.
At the very least the judge should have asked USAID details, scrutinized whether the contracts were legit before demanding payments to be effected. Now that would mean every time, payment vouchers have to go to a judge for verification.

[quote author=Ballzproblem2 post=134411590][/quote]Extrapolate how democrats work.
There is a trans boy who wants to play in the school team. Democrats go like We have to be inclusive , the trans boy has to play in the girls team, use their locker rooms and showers .Virtue signalling.

When it comes to funding research, they are wasting most of it but some is going to good use . When DOGE pauses it, Hey funds for research have been stopped. People are going to die.
The sad part is that they are shopping for like minded judges ,but the whole agenda is sabotage Trump.

This is $2 billion for works already completed by Feb 2025. The order doesn't block future USAID it's but leaves a windows for further lawsuits.

It's good we are admitting the truth in a Freudian way with the $180 bln figure instead of "it's $350, the President will know" (Goodluck Jonathan voice)
That $185;B was gleaned from congressional records.
The $350 B may be from DOGE or is part of the deal .

As for Susan Rice don't tell me she has never spoken to Zelensky.... I would never believe her Of all the foreign policy luminaries in the Obama sky, no one is closer to the president than she is.
With Obama 3.0 She was the point of contact ,channeling orders from Kalorama to WH, Joe Biden spent 40% of his time on vacation.

issued 3,095 loans, including PPP (Paycheck Protection Program) and EIDL (Economic Injury Disaster Loan), for $333M to borrowers over 115 years old who were still marked as alive in the Social Security database.

In one case, a 157 years old individual received $36k in loans.

@AmbassadorRice
You clowns are up to the same old tired crap. When your guy screws up and royally embarrasses himself and the U.S., you try to change the subject and lie about a favorite target to distract and deflect.

For the record, I have never met Zelenskyy and never spoken to him. Ever Oadvised him or anybody around him.

It’s a shame that you contend that it is in the U.S. national interest to sell out Ukraine and suck up to Putin.


In bold. She has never spoken to Zelensky. Never.
Hmmm She was National Security Advisor to Obama till 2017. She returned to WH as Head of Domestic Policy under Biden till 2023. It's well known she was the one pulling the strings at the WH . As defacto President she never spoke to Zelensky. Never?
Sell me a bridge.

Two cases of the Leftie Tyranny
Marie Le Penn
Charges: She and her party are accused of misappropriating EU parliamentary funds through a fake jobs scheme. This involved using money intended for parliamentary assistants for other purposes.
Prosecution's Request: The Paris prosecutor has recommended a €300,000 fine, a five-year prison sentence (with three years suspended), and a five-year ban on holding public office.
Trial Outcome: The verdict is expected to be delivered on March 31, 2025.

**** Ban on holding office

Cailin Georgescu Romania Won first round , but constitutional court cancelled the elections Russia intelligence report that EU president personally directed the Romania Court to prevent Georgescu from running. There is a case against him.

Criminal Charges: Prosecutors in Romania have opened a criminal case against Georgescu, focusing on allegations of falsifying statements regarding the sources of financing for his election campaign.
Recent Developments:
He was detained for questioning by police regarding these allegations.
He faces upto 20 years in jail.

Seems a familiar modus operandi the EU is following.

The left is so scared of losing power and their hold over Europe that they are bringing up fake charges on those who oppose EU policies.

They think they can hold on to power forever. EU ... Look at America. That should remind you that there is a God.

Had Kamala won , Joe Biden would have had Trump jailed for life and destroyed every ally of his. The evil democrats are still duking it out with whatever levers of power they still maintain.
Judge Chutkan case can still be resumed. Hopefully the democrats never get into power and all those Obama Biden judges get thrown to Gitmo.

Yes it is unless you produce the video YOU claim to have of her saying she met Zelensky. She is not that stupid to do a video and deny she ever spoke within 2 days unless she is suffering from Alzheimers.

The video doesn't exist, full stop. And the person who started the rumour admitted they made it up.

Like you already agreed:
Who said a video? Zelensky has not denied he was on a conference call en flight to Washington with Blinken, Susan Rice, Victoria Nuland and Vindman.
The other three have not denied
Show me s video of their denial

As usual, you have nothing to show

You won't do my homework for me but have time to type long paragraphs and to show me Susan Rice videos except the one where you claim she was on video claiming to speak to Zelensky before the meeting

Now typing long jargon jumping from pillar to post to appeal to maga sentiments instead of addressing the evidence requested. This is not about you having incentive to believe her, I am asking YOU to bring the video you said is in existence of her saying she spoke to Zelensky having provided you (a.) the original tweet that kicked off the conspiracy theory with the author admitting she is only speculating and (b.) Rices own tweet stating she has never met or advised Zelensky which is normal since she hasn't been in Government since 2017 when Zelensky was an entertainer

You are a drinker of lies that only mentally unbalanced people would entertain, and you've been caught pants down in another one until you can show the below
Ibime, I've been told that Zelensky didn't understand that the deal was a .mIneral deal not a ceasefire agreement. Don't forget Rice went on every Sunday show saying the raid at Benghazi was sparked by a YouTube video that noone had watched.
They know suckers like you are born every minute,they lie without batting an eyelid.

He picked a fight with Zelensky so he could use it as justification to do his masters bidding

There was a time when one of uniting forces between republicans and democrats was the mutual understanding that we don’t support dictatorship and Russia is not our friend.

The Russian asset in the White House has made it clear we’ve been acquired
You can really be clownish. In that fight he told Zelensky, Ukraine got satin bedsheets from Obama, while Trump sent him javelins.
I'm of the opinion that you think javelins are those spears used in athletics FYI. They are the most advanced shoulder carried anti tank missiles. They don't send chocolates, candy, sweets and balloons to the intended recipients. No. They carry a high explosive warhead capable of penetrating through several inches of armour .
Trump sent Zelensky javelins to kill Russian tanks . We all know tanks are driven by people , so those javelins were meant to kill Russian tanks -driver and passengers.
Javelins can also shoot down helicopters,the pilots and passengers.
According to you ,Trump is a Putin puppet because he sent to Ukraine javelins to kill Russians .

If your EU knew that Putin was this much of a threat, wouldn't they have been preparing a stronger army long before now?

Wouldn't they have reflected it in their defense/military budgets?

Why are they making those promises now AFTER Trump says he won't fund this war anymore?

Think about it. Stop and actually think.

$800 bln? With which money? You would build what weapons 🤣 by 2030? Why are you fools believing any of this claptrap?

As soon as the US won't fund any war again, the EU all of a sudden now are promising heaven and earth, WHY FOOLS WHY?

Its because they want forever wars. They're just trying to justify the war. Then they send it to their media, who annouce it to the sheeple and next thing you guys start posting Ukraine 🇺🇦 flags and hating Trump.

SMH
Out of that $800B ,bulk probably over 60% will go to buying Americsn weaponry . Battle tanks F-35s, M-16 rifles, grenade launchers, missiles air defence patriots and THAAD .All to prepare circa non existent war with Putin who wants Europe to buy Russian gas, grains and fertilizer most.

https://www.iba.sport/news/statement-made-by-the-international-boxing-association-regarding-athletes-disqualifications-in-world-boxing-championships-2023/

24 March 2023, IBA disqualified athletes Lin Yu-ting and Imane Khelif from the IBA Women’s World Boxing Championships New Delhi 2023. This disqualification was a result of their failure to meet the eligibility criteria for participating in the women’s competition, as set and laid out in the IBA Regulations. This decision, made after a meticulous review, was extremely important and necessary to uphold the level of fairness and utmost integrity of the competition.

Point to note, the athletes did not undergo a testosterone examination but were subject to a separate and recognized test, whereby the specifics remain confidential This test conclusively indicated that both athletes did not meet the required necessary eligibility criteria and were found to have competitive advantages over other female competitors


The IBA cannot read the results of a test according to you

This guy Francis Collins was on the email chain with Fauci. He has all but openly admitted he lied about being involved with gain-of-function research. You can read up on where he was working and why his sudden retirement is suspicious. That's for another day.

I posted this because of the phrase gain-of-function.



I just yanked this off Grok and highlighted the key terms.

- modified virus
- altered genetic makeup

Both terms are a different way of saying genetic modification. It means modifying the gene of a virus to enhance its virulent properties.

- Fauci sent tax payers money to Wuhan - FACT
- Wuhan is short form for the Wuhan VIROLOGY lab (renowned for conducting gain-of-function research)
- COVID-19 "leaked" from that lab.

COVID-19 leaked from a lab known for genetically modifying viruses to make them more dangerous.

Yet in 2025, some people still want Jake Tapper and Rachel Maddow to announce it to them. They want people who get their major sponsorship from Pfizer to sit in front of the TV and tell them;

Your US taxpayers money was used to fund a disease, that was then used to lock the same tax payers up, force an experimental procedure on them, sack fellow tax payers who refused it, yet knew all the while that that procedure won't work.

You're waiting for your media to tell you this, even though they censored everyone else who tried to tell you and even contradict their own PRESIDENT (who was right even though he didn't know).

You want the people who lied about Ivermectin (Nobel prize winning drug) and HCQ, to announce what I am posting here?

I don't know how else to help you people. You don't hate your deceivers enough.
They took advantage of the virus to exert political control and micromanage the society. Big pharma profited massively. People jailed for faking covax passports.
