New footage of J6. Police dog never caught the pipe bomb a few feet away in the Capitol.



How would this happen? A highly trained sniffer dog did not pick up the smell of explosives? Only because the device was just a dud, no explosives. It was a diversionery fake bomb 😁😁😁


J6 FBI lies? On Jan 5 a pipe bomb was planted outside RNC and DNC headquarters. The pipe bomber is on plenty cctv video, his movementts were traced, his car licence plates is known to FBI,but he has never been arrested.He made a phone call while in the vicinity of the bomb, it's easy to find out every call made within a few feet from that spot.

Furthermore the guy who discovered the bomb was a plain clothes Capitol police officer who still works there.
Worse, after discovery there seemed to be no urgency and utter lack of concern, police allowed school children to cross the road a few feet away from the bomb .
Kamala Harris Secret Service should have done a sweep ,earlier and definitely found the bomb.,we don't know if they did. They dropped her not far away from where the bomb was discovered. Had they done so, Pelisi would not have shut down Congress immediately house members raised electors objections.She stopped the session after being told of a bomb. Not because of Ray Epps and his cohorts breaking past the barriers.
After the bomb was discovered, robots were sent over to safely detonate it. Off course this footage has never been released.


Each state electors objections raised was supposed to be debated for two hours. Theere could have been ten or more hours used to discuss all the objections, could have ended up with Pence sending the electors back to the states for 10?? days.
Debate had to be shut down. The bomb discovery did that. Was the bomb designed to do that?
Session resumed evening under emergency. Mike Pence in the emergency session had no powers to allow the objectors. He only had powers to count their votes and nothing else.

That's the real coup of J6.

“
According to CNN Travel: holidaymakers should prepare to change their travel habits now, before this change is forced upon them.”

CNN reports that “The negative impacts of tourism on the environment have become so severe that some are suggesting drastic changes to our travel habits are inevitable.......
The idea of a carbon passport centers on each traveler being assigned a yearly carbon allowance that they cannot exceed. These allowances can then “ration” travel. … The average annual carbon footprint for a person in the US is 16 tons – one of the highest rates in the world. In ....

Trump has officially filed his appeal for a stay in the case regarding immunity a the Supreme Court.
The DC appeals court had given him six days to do lest the case goes on. Six days only. They ruled out a stay in the case pending an en banc review by the whole DC court of Appeals. Two Biden judges and a George Bush judge. Looks like they want the case to go on trial that badly.
Full appeals court is 11, only 4 are conservatives.No hope for Trump there.

I think justice in America is rotten. You have partisan judges who are Biden, Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump etc.

Fani Willis woes keep on growing Judge rules there will be an evidentiary hearing ( in 2 days?) .

BREAKING: Judge in Trump Case in Georgia on Fani Willis: “I think it's possible that the facts alleged could result in disqualification. I think an evidentiary hearing must occur to establish the record on those core allegations”

NB: She will give testimony under oath. How will she explain why she filed court documents saying her affair with Nathan Wade started after she appointed him, while his business partner is willing to testify in person that the affair started much earlier?
She also tainted the jury pool by claiming the accuser was going after her and Wade because they are black leaving out the other two white special prosecutors.

LOL. Donald Trump plans to attend the hearing. Master troll..That black who conspired to have mugshots of those who took action to expose the steal in Georgia.
Georgia's was a state case. The president cannot issue a pardon for state level case. Was to be the fail safe Incase federal level cases got thrown out.
All the same it will be such a nice mugshot of Fani Willis. She has brokem some law I believe that deserves an indictment and jail sentence.
There is a little mentioned filing at the Supreme Court questioning the legality of private citizen named Jack Smith as a Special Counsel wielding Super Cow powers; more than the Presidential nominated US Attorneys who have passed confirmation from the Senate.

Donald Trump is making NATO stronger by bullying members to act up to the agreed 2% of GDP defence spending
Reuters has just reported that: “German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Monday said defense companies could count on his government ramping up military spending and that it would meet its commitment to spend 2% of GDP on NATO defense.”

.

Trump era kept the world safe and peaceful.

Trump shut down the wars he met and open-ed no new wars.
He was an anti-war president, with a hawkish aura at the same time, that deterred aggression and crisis around the world.
All the troublemakers of the world had a mix of respect and fear of Donald Trump.

Then Trump left, and "America was back".
Or rather, the Left was back.

Then......

* The Taliban quickly re-took Afghanistan.
20 years of democracy cultivation went down the drain.

* Russia invaded Ukraine, starting a fire that can engulf the planet with apocalyptic conflagration.

* China moved from saving it's neck from Trump's trade war to threatening America over Taiwan with the language:
"Those who play with fire will be burnt".

* North Korea upgraded from firing rockets into the sea to firing them over the Japanese mainland. Resultantly, Japan and South Korea now want to build nukes, a.k.a nuclear proliferation.

* As if you hadn't seen anything, Hamas launched a genocidal attack on Israel, lighting another fire that's equally engulfing the planet from that end.

All these eruptions and escalations were held in check by the Trump factor. And the moment he left, or the moment the Left "was back", all hell broke loose.


Trump is a lifetime business man who wants people to abide by the terms and conditions of NATO membership. But Europeans prefer America-Last presidents who hold America by the horns like a cow while Europe and the world milk her in the name of "America Leads".
Trump took down Gen Solemani of Iran
He also took down Caliph Baghdad Ali.
.A very stark warming to leaders who wage international terror that he would go for them personally.p

Don't get your knickers in a twist, my dear. It's essential to recognize that all these valuations on items are often driven by collectors, enthusiasts, and the mystique surrounding iconic athletes. The intersection of sports, culture, and commerce can yield astonishing results. The notion that the Trump name is a brand with immeasurable worth is intriguing. However, at the end of the day, brand valuation remains subjective!

While some may view the Trump brand as priceless, others may question its reputation due to political polarization and controversies.
My simple point is that hat valuing his assets using brick and mortar construction costs and annual revenue was incorrect.
You agree Trump is a brand. It is not priceless as I may have mentioned, but it nevertheless has a value. That the left wants to crush.
In other words Letitia case is. a complete sham and a mockery of justice

Ijebos. Now that you may probably be based in DC, I happened to read about the Trump hotel in DC.
He took an annual $3.1m lease in 2013 long before he became president - they said it would be a conflict. Actually Raskin committee said the hotel was paid $8m by foreign govts.
Politics aside, looks like Trump spent $200m to turn the building into a hotel (Ivanka headed the project) , made $70m in loses while he was President. Then sold it at $375m to Waldorf Astoria.
You may be probably taking your dates there for fine red wines and fillet mignon. Say your silent thanks to Ivanka and Trump org for the adulation you receive from your dates.
I've got a PhD friend who works for the Rockefeller Foundation in DC. She says it's a pretty expensive place to live in and spends quite a lot of time working remotely.

Fani Willis and her lover Nathan Wade.
Both filed dictionary sized affidavits in court saying their romance started after Wade's appointment as Trump's inquisitor.
Bombshell. Wade's law partner is ready to testify in person that they had begun the affair before she became Fulton DA. He has first hand evidence they also cohabited.
There is also evidence that a large amount of her campaign contributions came from fraudulent dark money. Supposed donors had identities stolen and used to donate to her campaign.
Fani Willis also refused to accept a subpoena from Jim Jordan oversight committee. He had the US Marshalls waste federal funds to personally serve her. This subpoena is in regards to her potential misuse of federal grants. A whistleblower questioned her diversion of $484K of federal funds to another cause. Fani Willis fired her
While this back and forth is going It would be interesting to find out if the divorce lawyer Nathan Wade is still billing Fulton $250 an hour with Fani approving payments.

This Fanny thing and her lover might end up in the jails she so wished for Trump. Lying to s court ? Will be juicy to see them on live TV being questioned under oath on Feb 15 hopefully

Where are all those who said Trump Georgia case was the strongest?

coolIs jack Smith crazy enough to charge Trump with insurrection?

Jack Smith requested Judge Cannon in the Florida case this week to keep some documents sealed. Supposedly Trump defence should not have the documents unredacted because of another ongoing investigation.
( It's said there exists an ongoing Jan 6 investigation by the Chris Wray led Gestapo)

In those Colorado type cases, the Supreme court asked if anyone had been charged with insurrection.None. judge Clarence mentioned that it's Congress to deal with eligibility of a candidate under the Act. I think he is preemptively challenging any new indictment by Jackboot regarding insurrection, which states will then use to remove Trump from the ballot.

Democrat insiders say it is now 'panic time' after a blockbuster Justice Department report concluded Joe Biden has 'diminished faculties' and is an 'elderly man with a poor memory'.

Increasingly, behind the scenes, a nuclear option is being considered to remove the 81-year-old president as the Democrat nominee at the party's convention in Chicago in August.

The leading candidates to replace him include California Governor Gavin Newsom and Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer.

'I think it is now panic time. Biden should not be our standard bearer,' a former senior Democrat White House official, who worked with Biden, told Dailymail.com.

'He looked like a deer stuck in the headlights last night
. There isn't enough gas in the tank for another four and-a-half years. Ultimately we're going to see more and more prominent Democrats saying the quiet part out loud.

'It's increasingly clear we have a deeply flawed candidate. Democracy is in the balance and this is not a smart path for our party.'



Who would know the difference if they replaced Joe Biden with a wax like statue of him?

As an aside, Congress then under RINO Paul Ryan denied funding for border wall. Trump diverted military funds for construction, the left went to court and stopped the funding .Joe Biden stopped the construction day one, sold the construction materials as scrap...and proposed amnesty for illegal aliens.He went to court to stop Texas razor wire installations along River grande.
This is not a Joe Biden plan. Same thing happens in Western Europe. George Soros is one the biggest proponents of open borders where people are stateless and can walk in to any nation freely. EU an example of free movement of people and goods that will morph into centralized leadership off Brussels to the public one day.

The text of Hamas' proposal for a deal with Israel

The Lebanese Al-Akhbar newspaper, which is often used as a mouthpiece promoting the interests of Hamas and Hezbollah, published this morning the text of Hamas' deal proposal, as provided to the mediators.

The main points of the proposal in brief:
:

1. The cessation of military activity in preparation for the complete cessation and the withdrawal of IDF forces to the surrounding areas.
2. Hudna of 135 days in three stages of 45 days each during which all the Israeli abductees and the bodies of the Israelis in the Gaza Strip will be released in exchange for the Palestinian prisoners and bodies held by Israel.
3. Preventing Jews from entering the Temple Mount and returning the situation on the Mount to what it was before 2002.
4. The restoration of the Gaza Strip and international guarantees.


And now for the details according to the three stages:

The first stage (45 days) -

Hamas requirements and conditions for this stage:


1. A complete (and mutual) cessation of military activity in the Strip, including air activity.

2. Withdrawal of IDF forces from the inhabited areas in the Gaza Strip to the border line (with Israel, as it was on October 6th -AA).


3. The release of all Israeli abductees under the age of 19 (who are not soldiers), as well as the elderly and the sick whose names were previously agreed upon (referring to the hudna agreement of the month of November -AA) in exchange for the release of all the Palestinian prisoners imprisoned in Israel who are younger than 19 or older than 50, as well as the sick among them, in addition to 1,500 Palestinian prisoners named by Hamas, of which 500 are serving life sentences.

4. Completing the necessary steps to ensure that the prisoners who were released for the offenses for which they were imprisoned are not re-arrested.

5. Improving the conditions of the remaining Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons and removing the restrictions imposed on them since October 7.

6. Preventing Jews from entering Al-Aqsa (the entire Temple Mount square) and restoring the situation to what it was before 2002.

7. The introduction of a minimum of 500 aid trucks per day into the Strip, including fuel.

8. The return of all the displaced people to their homes all over the Strip without movement restrictions.


9. The opening of all Gaza crossings for the movement of people and goods without restrictions, including the departure of men, women and children for treatment outside the Gaza Strip without any restrictions.

10. Supply of heavy engineering equipment for clearing rubble, equipment for civil defense and equipment for the Ministry of Health.

11. The rehabilitation of the hospitals and bakeries in the entire strip.

12. Brining in of all the equipment needed to set up residential camps, including: 60 thousand temporary residential buildings (trailers and containers) at a rate of 15 thousand per week.
The introduction of 200,000 tents at a rate of 50,000 per week.


13. The beginning of infrastructure restoration all over the Strip, including water, electricity and communication infrastructures.

14. Approval of a comprehensive plan for the rehabilitation of all the residential buildings, commercial buildings and public buildings that were destroyed as a result of the fighting within a practical schedule of three years.

15. Renewal of all the humanitarian aid provided to the residents of the Gaza Strip and especially the functioning of UNRWA - as it was before October 7.

16. Supplying the diesel needed to operate the power plant in Gaza and needed for all sectors in the Gaza Strip.

17. Israel must be forced to meet the needs of the Gaza Strip in the area of electricity and water.


18. The beginning of the indirect talks to reach a complete calm agreement.

The exchange of prisoners will be closely related to the degree of implementation of the aid income.

Egypt, Turkey, Qatar, Russia and the United Nations will guarantee the implementation of this agreement.

These are Hamas' demands for the first stage
.
Foolish leaders like Blinken will pore through every wording of the deal.
The most important word from the deal is hudna.

The “hudna” that Muslims make with non-Muslims can never be more than temporary, and is entered into only because the Muslim side feels it is too weak to conduct open warfare, and would benefit from a respite from open hostilities. Alternatively, a Muslim polity may enter into a hudna with non-Muslims if it has a reasonable expectation that those non-Muslims will soon adopt Islam.

If the hudna is undertaken in order to give the Muslims time to gather their strength, then the Muslim side is then not merely allowed, but required, whenever it feels strong enough, to re-engage in open hostilities. And of course all during the period of the “hudna” it may conduct whatever operations not involving combat that it is capable of, including economic boycotts, diplomatic offensives, and suchlike — which is exactly what all Muslim states do engage in to weaken Israel, whether or not they are still in an official state of war......


It's Hamas request for a ceasefire to allow them to stock up
After 145 days they resume hostility.
The hudna can be broken any time all the same when Hamas feels strong enough or when Israel is weak enough to not do anything when Hamas fires rockets.
This is no ceasefire deal.
