Deepsight. I'm unlike you believing every wild claim. Like this.
The democrats had enough cash to steal 2020. Zuckerbucks himself donated $350 million , a good chunk was directed to funding drop boxes, early voting and ballot harvesting in democrat strong areas. |
benalvino3:Immigration works wonders when those coming in are vetted. When the underlying reason is not creating a loyal voting block .
Let's not forget . Waiters have been jailed for serving alcohol to drunk people who later caused fatal road accidents. (In one case two bartenders were sentenced to 5 years each ). |
Ilhan Omar filings reported her worth several million dollars upto $30. She has now refiled , correcting the "mistake" to now $90K
Democrats and corruption are conjoined twins |
Spin this. Trump is putting on a master class in reestablishing American dominance and you’re black pilling? Let’s take a closer look: 1. Panama. Thru heavy pressure forced Panama to sever ties to China’s influence and ended any Belt and Road participation. 2. Venezuela. Cuts off cheap oil to China and Cuba. Cuba becomes now willing to negotiate with the US having been cut off from its primary energy source. China loses cheap oil and is figuring out how to get their investment debt out of VZ. VZ ends Belt and Road participation. 3. The US effectively has exerted dominance in the Americas. 4. Conflict with Iran. Cuts off cheap oil to China, working to end China’s influence in the Middle East. 5. US and previously neutral Indonesia for Major Defense Cooperation Partnership. Gives US operational influence over the Strait of Malacca. Strait carries 40% of global trade and primary Middle East oil route to China. Key choke point. 6. US and Philippines strengthen their Defense Cooperation. Gives the US more choke point control of the Luzon strait/Bashi channel and the Balbac Strait. Both key routes to China. 7. Combined with the Strait of Hormuz, the US shows it has the capability to blockade 80% of China’s sea route oil imports. And y’all are black pilling? 😆 And y’all are worried about some memes and the Pope? Mean tweets? No Kings? Hahaha @ radiofreetx I have repeatedly stated that I'd rather the US as the superpower only . China should compete fairly. Govts in Africa should not let their own industries close down because Chinese goods are cheaper.Do you know Nigeria imports razor blades and matchsticks from China . feedthenation: |
Raumdeuter. See where democrats took your money.

You contend that the Iranians shot down 2 C-130s and 4 helicopters plus another 50 Delta Force operators. In other words Hegseth is lying . You are free to believe anything from the Iranians. They shot down the F15 yes. Plus at an A-10 Warthog whose pilot ejected fortunately and made it to Kuwait? I believe they used shoulder fired manpads . nateevs:uh |
DOGE faced resistance from democrat ,media and non profits from day one . Judges joined to stop them. Everywhere corruption us being fought ,it fights back viciously. As to it's achievements ,I can see you've mentioned EPA. They stopped $20 billion ,for instance Stacey Abrams non profit to buy home appliances lost $2 billion that had been allocated. Govt shouldn't buy people aircons fridges and hot showers. Sample this California fraud. Officials say they stole more than $600 million in fraudulent Medicare payments. Earlier this month the same task force had suspended around 70 to 221 providers.Previously 280 hospice licenses were closed with another 300 providers under investigation Details: 🔺️Fraudsters set up fake hospice companies in low-income neighborhoods. 🔺️They paid healthy seniors cash or gave them flat-screen TVs worth $600 to sign up with fake “terminal illness” paperwork. 🔺️Medicare then paid the companies about $6,000 per patient for supposed hospice care that never happened. 🔺️Some buildings in Los Angeles had as many as 89 hospice licenses registered to a single address, with one three-mile stretch having almost 500 registered outfits. 🔺️No actual nursing, pain relief, or end-of-life services were delivered. DOGE should have been given teeth by Congress, instead some Republicans and all Democrats opposed it because they skim off your taxes. cococandy: |
raumdeuter:How do you write checks $18.9B daily for 365 days a year without a watertight system of where the money is going? Shocking . |
You don't get to do an audit without accessing relevant data. The outcry against DOGE was because if not stopped they would have revealed the largest guzzlers of public funds. The ones with the loudest megaphones . Your treasury pays out $18.9B every day ,it's imperative that payments be reviewed and suggestions made to improve efficiency . Audits are never about catching the thieves ,they are for ensuring that laid down procedures are followed. Eliminating waste is important else it's your children who will suffer in the end If a significant matter is flagged, then a forensic audit is conducted . cococandy: |
EnlightenedUFO:I don't know whether you've been to any manufacturing factory. Hitler built 6 extermination camps. Whereas a factory manufactures products these camps main activity was to quickly exterminate. About Sobibor The camp's layout functioned like a "conveyor belt of death," designed for victims to be killed within hours of arrival. Transport Frequency: Up to six train echelons could arrive daily, each carrying about 2,000 people. Gas Chamber Throughput: The initial three gas chambers could hold about 160–180 people each. In the summer of 1942, these were replaced by six larger brick chambers, doubling the capacity to murder between 450–550 people in a single cycle. Time per Cycle: The entire process—from the train's arrival to gassing and body removal—took only two to three hours. Operational Efficiency by Design Sobibor was notably compact, covering only about 150 acres (roughly 400 by 600 meters). Unlike larger complexes like Auschwitz, Sobibor did not need extensive housing because the vast majority of arrivals were killed immediately. Railway Proximity: A dedicated railway spur led directly into the camp, allowing 20 freight cars to be processed at a time while others waited at the nearby station. The "Pathway to Heaven": Victims were forced to run naked down a narrow, fenced-off path (the Schlauch) that led directly from the "reception area" where they undressed to the gas chambers in the "extermination area". Limited Labor Force: Only about 600 to 1,000 prisoners were kept alive at any time, solely to facilitate the camp's operations, such as sorting stolen belongings or removing bodies. |
raumdeuter:There is a lot of waste . Are these not the same people who were against DOGE? The welfare in America is designed to increase every year One key area No budget can pass with the political divide and special interests.Every few months start with a fixed expenditure equal to the previous year's or period. Then Congress and Senate horse trade over what extras to load into until the next Continuing Resolution is passed. Again spending more than the taxman will collect, common to every country though. |
Obrigardo:What exactly are you questioning? The number said to have been killed? If so , how many should have been killed in order for it to be called a holocaust? Let me know your figure. |
I'm being sarcastic specifically about the ID. Politicians say VoterID will disenfranchise blacks who mostly vote democrats. Regarding $30 entry,I'm pleased to note that special consideration have been made to accommodate everyone . Meanwhile Given that the median household income for Black families in the U.S. is roughly $54,339 (compared to approximately $84,632 for White households), critics and community members have expressed concern that the record-setting ticket price could be a barrier for some Of course I'm biased against Obama, cococandy: |
Middle East countries are the main supporters of Hamas. Iran outdid them by arming,funding and training Hamas, Houthis and Hezbolla. The terrorists you've mentioned get inspiration from mostly the Wahabbis and Salafists sects. The mosque is where indoctrination happens , If you want to fight terrorist groups you mentioned examine what's being taught in the mosques and where those preachers studied. Mille: |

Senate leader John Thune is sabotaging the investigation and indictment of John Brennan. He has refused to provide interview transcript and other documents to investigators in Florida. The Miami prosecutor who was also slowing down the case has been removed . A career prosecutor Joe diGenova has been appointed to lead the investigation .He has prosecuted top flight cases and is a conservative. https://justthenews.com/government/congress/satjohn-thunes-senate-has-delayed-weaponization-prosecutors-john-brennan-probe Can't wait to see a mugshot of John Brennan.He is an analyst of MSNOW today where he peddles every little lie he can about Trump. Senator John Thune has also refused to table the VoterID Bill ,refused to remove the filibuster and also prevented Trump from making recess appointments by keeping the Senate in session throughout. |

Obama Presidential shrine set to open. Expects 700,000 visitors annually. Many blacks may not manage to enter because 1. An ID is required 2. Entry will be $30 .

Bottom line ,I don't agree with all their wars . Many are about extracting resources. Some are fighting terrorism. Some are defeating communism. It's up to you to decide which is just. I won't generalized and demonize all their wars, I'll go case by case Kingsnairaland: |
Usually Trump calls me. This is what he told me. Sssh this is top secret stuff Two heavy transport aircraft MC-130J planes landed on a disused airstrip . Each carried 2 MH-6 Littlebird helicopters plus fuel and special forces teams . It had recently rained and the desert Sandy soil was moist. The planes got stuck. They couldn't get a generator to heat the sand so that the sand could be dry because of time. There was also no firewood nearby that could be used to dry the runway. This is the only part I didn't believe. The Littlebirds don't have the range to get to the nearest base from that spot. Lighter planes to extract the crew were sent , and the two transport planes plus their cargo the 4 Littlebirds were destroyed.The inferno was seen from space .Big beautiful inferno. Happy? nateevs:

Kingsnairaland:Your complete list had Islamic terrorist countries. This other lists has wars from the East West cold war eras. Especially in South America and the islands around there. I'd say some wars the American fought were just wars ,others were imperialistic in nature I'd avoid putting Alqaeda wars together with Vietnam. No correlation |
DeepSight:I don't take everything at face value , you might call that a problem. Especially when it comes from sources sworn to destroy Trump. Kristie Noem, I quickly pointed out she had awarded a week old company millions of dollars to run the ad. Pam Bondi. I've been accusing her of slow walking many times wondering why Biden could arrest over 1000 J6 protesters within a year , yet she could not charge a single person for treason. I don't trust Todd Blanche, the acting AG who actually runs DOJ to do anything. The one person whose done a lot is Tuski Gabbard. I have reservations over John Ratcliffe at CIA. Kash Patel .. I don't think he has the cojones to drain the swamp. This week a Miami Federal proswcir was removed from John Brennan the traitor case because she has been stonewalling. So go ahead and tell me why Hegseth is incompetent. |
I've been posting a lot a lot of late about Islam here. Reason is that I want to record what Muslims say and write with regards to matters happening today. I asked Grok to search memri.org on views about the Vatican by Muslims. From memri.org (which translates and reports on statements from Muslim media, clerics, scholars, preachers, and jihadist groups):Muslim sources on the site frequently describe the Vatican/Pope in highly negative terms, viewing it as promoting polytheism/idolatry, arrogance, a conspiracy to destroy or weaken Islam, or a target for eventual Islamic conquest.. Specific examples include:Pro-ISIS Telegram channel "'Ikrimah bin Wa'el" called the Pope "the head of the polytheist Christians" and condemned eulogizing him as "denying explicit verses of the Quran and rejecting the Sunnah which forbids praying and seeking forgiveness for polytheists." Jihadi clerics (via "Min Idlib" Telegram channel quoting Saudi cleric 'Abd Al-'Aziz Al-Tarifi) stated that extending condolences to the Pope (as an "unbeliever" is forbidden if it makes Muslims appear weak. Syrian jihadi cleric Abu Yahya Al-Sham (quoting Saudi scholar Ibn 'Uthaymin) said eulogizing an "unbeliever" like the Pope is forbidden if it glorifies him. Gaza-based Islamist preacher Nabil Al-Halabi condemned the Pope's visit to Bahrain, calling interfaith dialogues part of a U.S. campaign against Islam "aimed at softening Islam, stripping Muslims of their religion, [and] identity." Egyptian historian Zaynab Abd Al-Aziz (on Saudi Iqra TV) stated: "The decision to impose one religion over the entire world was made in the Second Vatican Council in 1965" and described the Vatican's mission of destroying Islam as having been "delegated" to the U.S. Miami Imam Dr. Fadi Yousef Kablawi referred to the Pope and Catholics as "idol worshipers." Sheikh of Al-Azhar Ahmad Al-Tayyeb said the Pope "is not bothered when millions of Muslims are killed." Canadian Imam Abdullah Hakim Quick (in a 2025 sermon) described the Vatican as showing "arrogance and splendor," said Christians "have no modesty [and] use pagan symbols," and cited the Prophet Muhammad saying Jesus would return "to break the crosses [and] slay all pigs." [/b]Sheikh Yousef Al-Qaradhawi (head of the International Union of Muslim Scholars) objected to Muslim-Christian interfaith dialogue and noted: "No Pope has ever apologized to the Muslims for what happened to them in the Crusader Wars." [b]Dr. Subhi Al-Yaziji (Dean of Koranic Studies, Islamic University of Gaza ) said: "We hope to conquer Andalusia and the Vatican." Colorado Islamic scholar Karim Abu Zayd cited a hadith predicting that "Islam will conquer Europe" and "the Mahdi will lead Muslims to conquer the Vatican." ISIS and pro-ISIS outlets (e.g., in their weekly editorial and posters after Pope Francis's death) slammed Muslim eulogies of the Pope as "betrayal of monotheism," part of a "global effort to redefine Islam as part of human fraternity," and an alliance against tawhid (monotheism) and jihad. So you can see the views on Islam are not what they tell you. These are diverse scholars of modern day spread in every corner of the world Islam all echoing the same thing. Someone please DM this post to the Pope to know whom he is dealing with. Caveat. Most Muslims don't know this. They are good people happily going on with their day to day lives . The one quote I couldn't get was a Shia cleric praying for the day the Muslims capture the Vatican and convert St Peters Basilica into a mosque. I'm just posting what's out there , what highly respected scholars of Islam say . Foolishboy417 ,None of this is of my origination. Deepsight, the only thing I know about Islam is what their scholars say ( in Arabic) when the infidels are not listening. |
Enrich yourself with this fact. Vatican wall was built after Muslims attacked Rome and sacked the Basilica. The wall was constructed for several critical reasons: Protection from Pirate Raids: In 846 AD, Saracen (Arab) pirates raided Rome and sacked Old St. Peter's Basilica, which at the time sat undefended outside the city's ancient Aurelian Walls. Creating a "Leonine City": To prevent future looting, Pope Leo IV fortified the entire Vatican Hill, creating a secure enclave for the Christian community. Security for the Pope: Later additions, including an elevated passage called the Passetto di Borgo, were built to provide an escape route for popes to flee to the nearby fortress of Castel Sant'Angelo during political violence or sieges. Sovereign Boundary: Today, the wall largely marks the international border between the sovereign Vatican City State and Italy, as established by the 1929 Lateran Treat |

Cross Posted. I prefer the views of those affected directly by the Iran war ,not the lords of doom here. Message from Saudi Petroleum expert, Dr. Mansour Al-Malik, Energy consultant and Professor at KSA University "Thank you, Your Excellency President Trump The question today is not who started the confrontation… but who stopped the danger before it grew larger. 1- Thank you, Your Excellency President Trump… because you understood what many ignored for years, that the Iranian threat was not theoretical nor media-driven, but missiles being manufactured, drones being stockpiled, cells being planted, and an expansion project awaiting the moment to pounce. 2- Thank you because you were not deceived by the peace slogans raised by day, while weapons were being shipped at night to the Popular Mobilization Forces, Hezbollah, and the cross-border militias. 3- Thank you because you realized that every day of delay was not a day for de-escalation… but an additional day in missile factories, a new day in uranium enrichment, and another day in training proxies. 4- Thank you because you read the history of the region well, and knew that those who bombed embassies, hijacked planes, threatened navigation, and struck oil facilities are not deterred by a statement of condemnation or a diplomatic smile. 5- Thank you because you knew that the security of the Gulf is not merely a local matter, but a pillar of global economic stability, and that targeting Riyadh or Abu Dhabi or Kuwait or Manama or Doha is an attack on energy, trade, and markets around the world. 6- Thank you because you did not wait until Iran became a nuclear power imposing its conditions on everyone, making its deterrence more costly and more dangerous. 7- Thank you because you distinguished between the noble Iranian people, who deserve life and prosperity, and the regime that spent its wealth on militias instead of schools and hospitals. 8- Thank you because you exposed the falsehood of what is called the Axis of Resistance, which raised slogans for decades while its rifles were aimed at Arab capitals more than at its declared enemies. 9- Thank you because you proved that firmness is sometimes the shortest path to peace, and that prolonged hesitation may breed a greater war in the future. 10- Thank you because you gave the peoples of the region hope that the era of blackmail with missiles and drones is not an eternal fate. 11- Thank you because you said in the language of power what years of fruitless negotiations failed to achieve: that the security of allied nations and their sovereignty are red lines. 12- Thank you because you sent a clear message to all who think of threatening their neighbors, that the world may be patient… but it does not forget. 13- Thank you because you stood with your allies when they needed a stance, not just words. 14- Thank you because you understood that stability is not made by those who fund chaos, but by those who deter it. 15- And finally, thank you… because you made many review their calculations, and realize that the time of recklessness may be long… but it does not last.

Fake story. They started by saying they are the ones who shot down 2 planes and helicopters that the do called Delta Force destroyed so they wouldn't know about the Direct Energy weapon. In any case if it's true they would have posted photos of them surrendering. Or they are so afraid of Trump , during Obama time they splashed these humiliating images of US sailors.. nateevs:6
