Two leters to Trump in the last week from very high ranking Venezuelans in US prisons.

https://dallasexpress.com/national/exclusive-letter-to-trump-2-how-maduro-exported-tren-de-aragua-to-u-s/
And
https://dallasexpress.com/national/exclusive-former-maduro-spy-chiefs-letter-to-trump-seeks-to-expose-narco-terrorist-war-against-u-s/


The letters are from two former high-ranking Venezuelan officials now imprisoned in the U.S.:
Hugo Carvajal Barrios ("El Pollo"wink: Ex-Director of Venezuelan Military Intelligence under Chávez and Maduro; pleaded guilty to narco-terrorism charges.
Cliver Antonio Alcalá Cordones: Retired Major General who led military operations and broke with Maduro; pleaded guilty to supporting FARC with arms and drugs.

Both offer cooperation to U.S. authorities and warn of threats from the Maduro regime.In return they want a fair sentencing / review.
Concurring Major Points
Cartel de los Soles as Criminal Network: The Maduro regime operates as a narco-criminal organization (Cartel de los Soles), using drugs as a weapon against the U.S., involving high officials like Maduro and Diosdado Cabello.
Tren de Aragua Origins and Export:
Originated in prisons under Chávez for regime protection; Maduro deliberately expanded and exported the gang (including to the U.S.) to reduce domestic crime, target exiles, and exploit migration.
Electoral fraud via Smartmatic: Venezuelan-developed voting technology is rigged for fraud; used in Venezuela and exported abroad, with potential risks to other countries including the U.S.
Foreign Ties(Cuba, IranHezbollah): Regime heavily influenced/trained by Cuba; deep alliances with Iran, Hezbollah, and other adversaries for criminal and intelligence operations.
Drug Trafficking and Related Crimes: State-directed narco-trafficking, often linked to illegal mining and laundering.
Threat to U.S. National Security: Regime is actively at war with the U.S. via drugs, gangs, espionage, and interference; both support Trump's tough policies and offer to testify/provide details.


Venezuela has 1800 kilometer coastline , it's a herculean effort to track every narco boat , many of which can sail very fast for hours in the open seas.
Outside 12 nautical miles, the boats should have a national flags and be reachable on an international Maritime frequency radios. They should obey recognized Navy Forces commands . Else they are just pirates.

bayelsaowei, here is the complete timeline of Nur Ilhan Elmi Said Omar.

The government has investigated and documented the facts, including public records confirming Omar and Elmi obtained a Hennepin County marriage license on February 12, 2009, and divorced legally in December 2017 (after separating in 2011 per Islamic tradition).

The Biden DOJ declined to prosecute noting Elmi returned to the UK, however, while here, Elmi received Minneapolis public housing, welfare and student aide.

Timeline of Omar's two marriages:

1997: Omar and her family settle in Minnesota after fleeing war-torn Somalia

2002: She marries Ahmed Abdisalan Hirsi in a religious ceremony but it is not recognized legally. The pair go on to have two children.

2009: Omar marries Ahmed Elmi in Eden Prairie, Minnesota

2010: He enrolls at North Dakota State University to study fine art and lives with Omar

2011: Omar claims she and Elmi split this year and he went back to the UK

2012: Omar and Hirsi have their third child. Elmi is still in the US according to college officials and social media

2013: Elmi starts working in London

2017: Omar divorces Elmi

2018: Omar marries Hirsi in a civil ceremony

2018: The marriage is brought up during Omar's campaign for congress

She denies it and it is largely ignored because of the lack of proof around it at the time

July 2019: President Trump thrusts the rumor back into the spotlight

July 2019: http://DailyMail.com reveals Omar and Hirsi have separated and she's moved into a penthouse apartment

http://DailyMail.com also reveals Omar's secret relationship with her married aide Tim Mynett

August 2019: Tim Mynett's wife files for divorce, claiming her husband had professed his love for Omar

Early October 2019: Omar formally files for divorce from Hirsi

November 2019: Omar is granted the divorce from Hirsi

December 12, 2019: Hirsi marries pediatric nurse Ladan Ahmed

December 19, 2019: Mynett is granted a divorce from his wife Beth

In December 2025, a Daily Mail report cited Abdihakim Osman, a Somali community blogger and self-described former associate of Omar, who claimed she confided in him about marrying Elmi to help his immigration status while still involved with Hirsi.

Osman described the wedding as secretive (no guests, unlike her 2002 ceremony) and said the family referred to Elmi as Omar's "brother" sent for "rehab".

About Ijebos and his colleagues running here saying Brian Cole Jr r is a Trump supporter
They go silent for a few days in ICU shock after learning FBI identified him from Verizon logs as the guy who used the pipe bombers route at exactly the time CCTV recorded bombs being placed. In April 2021 ,took 4 years 9 months to arrest him.

Biden's FBI went after 1500 Trump supporters over January 6 but not Brian Cole .
Jake Tapper has retracted his chain the bomber was a white guy .

Brian Cole court appearance is Dec 14th . I'm expecting nothing major.
Brian Cole lead prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine, is among the worst of the worst in DOJ. She misled Gen Flynn into pleading guilty , she withheld FBI criminal evidence as lead prosecutor in Proud Boys case, she had enticed Proud Boys Enrique Tarro to implicate Trump if he wanted a plea deal

Ijebos & Co are hoping I'll be proven wrong. This place was eerily quiet you'd have thought it's a morgue.

Previously, I've talked about major blockbuster movies from Hollywood being shot once crimes against Trump are exposed . I guess TMTG will have sole rights

Trump is a fascist and dictator 'n I'll provide evidence.

He has been blocked by Senate Democrats from appointing Alina Habba as the US Attorney.So she has to resign after Appeals Court ruling. Lindsey Halligan will soon be resigning too
Not only Alina Habba , only 10 US Attorneys out of 93 have been confirmed. Democrats using the blue slip thing have blocked appointments of all US Attorneys.
Judges have blocked Trump from firing Biden holdovers. SCOTUS the other day allowed Trump to fire 2 Democrats : Gwynne A. Wilcox as Member of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and .Cathy A. Harris as Vice Chair (and former Acting Chair) of the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) . Trump has to go SCOTUS to get permission to fire every person on a case by case basis it seems .
Judge Boasberg is threatening to jail Kristin Noem ,he is holding the Trump admin in contempt for not turning back the plane carrying Abednego kilmar Garcia.He might appoint a prosecutor because his oral and written orders were ignored
50 out of 143 major Trump executive orders have been blocked by judges,100% of those that make it to SCOTUS have been stayed.

Trump is really a dictator. Dictators get stymied and stonewalled by their parliaments and judiciaries. They allow media to create and run lies about them 24/7.

Democrat supporters believe he is a dictator. They must be very intelligent.
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 5:33pm On Dec 07, 2025
The Deep State MVP is none other than James Comey.
A DC judge has blocked his media conduit leaker Dan Richman data from being used in a re-indictment.
Lindsey Halligan indicted Comey of lying to Congress about his authorizing Richman to leak to media.
The pinpoint evidence was his communication with Dan Richman

Dan Richman devices were seized by FBI in 2017 or so and his emails clearly nails Comey as being the source. Richman went to a DC judge to block his data from being used without her permission, she granted a TRO till Dec 12.
Without that data ,the smoking gun in the emails, Comey walks after a judge tossed out the case NOT based on evidence but the appointment validity of Halligan.

Comey has been the blue eyed boy if the get Trump shenanigans.

_Signed the first Carter Page FISA (Oct 2016)
_Drafted Clinton’s exoneration before the investigation ended (July 2016)
_Briefed Trump on the dossier in Trump Tower (Jan 6, 2017) so the media could publish it the next day
_Handed the seven memos to Richman (May 2017) → Mueller appointed a week later
_Oversaw the Flynn 302 alterations (Jan–Feb 2017)
_Kept the Epstein files sealed under his “command” (per Bondi/Patel 2025 release)
_Personally approved the “insurance policy” text chain between Strzok and Page


If Comey gets a plea deal the House of Cards falls.

P/S
.1. I've spent years trying to make sense of the whole get Trump seditious plots. Many of you thought I'm crazy
2 A Clinton judge threw out Comey and Letitia cases, now another Clinton judge is attempting to block evidence used in the first indictment
This judge once sentenced innocent Trump supporters.

Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico:
Stephen DAntuono said this in a congressional hearing 2023 regarding investigating the now infamous Brian Cole Jr.

"We did a complete geofence. We have complete data. Not complete, because there’s some data that was corrupted by one of the providers, not purposely by them, right. It just — unusual circumstance that we have corrupt data from one of the providers... So could it have been that provider? Yeah, with our luck, you know, with this investigation it probably was, right. So maybe if we did have that — that data wasn't corrupted — and it wasn’t purposely corrupted

Who is Stephen DAntuono ?
He was the head of FBI most prestigious office , Washington DC in January 2021. At a Deputy Directors level.

More about him
In Michigan the Gretchen Witmer kidnapping plot had more FBI agents than the actual plotters. They got some low IQ fellas , entrapped them into a plot to kidnap her in 2020 a few weeks to election. There were as many as 12 FBI out of 18 in the plot who were providing everything. Logistics and money. The guy who drove the plotters to their arrest was a fbi informant.
Who was the head Michigan FBI field office. Stephen DAntuono. The Michigan kidnap plot received extensive media coverage Trump MAGA supporters plotted it a few weeks and days to the 2020 elections.

Weeks later he was promoted and moved to head the Washington DC FBI field office by Cris Wray personally. Cris Wray misled Congress for years about the pipe bomber,refusing to comment about matters under investigation.

With Stephen DAntuono in charge the January 6 fedsurrection happened. He lied about data being corrupted which meant that they weren't able to identify Brian Cole Jr

There are a lot of matters that are being revealed as of now.
Metro police never released his footage separate from the Congress surveillance system.
Video surveillance released initially by FBI had been tampered with, changing the frame rates?

Of particular note ,the corrupted data DAntuono claimed was a lie. : A January 2025 House subcommittee report ("Examining the State of the Investigation into the RNC and DNC Pipe Bombs"wink was categorical
The cell carriers (e.g., major providers) confirmed in responses to congressional inquiries that they did not provide corrupted data and that the FBI never notified them of any access issues

Holy Shit. FBI had the cellphone number of Brian Cole Jr as early as April 2021.
raumdeuter bemeruca Ijebosb feedthenation budaatum SpaceX Ono olaadegbu


Analysis by Grok

The image shared by Steve Bannon (reposting Julie Kelly and the January 6 Select Committee account) shows side-by-side excerpts from two FBI documents that strongly suggest the FBI had identified Brian Cole Jr. as the pipe bomber suspect as early as April 2021 — nearly five years before his arrest on December 4, 2025.
Key evidence from the documents shown:Left side (FBI 302 report from early February 2021
An FBI analyst is already examining cell-phone tower data from the exact times and locations where the pipe bombs were placed (RNC and DNC headquarters on January 5, 2021). The report notes that one specific phone — later identified as belonging to Brian Cole Jr. — was the only device that was present at both bomb placement locations during the narrow windows when the bombs were planted.
Right side (later FBI affidavit/analysis, likely from spring 2021):
Explicitly states that the phone labeled “COLE CELLPHONE” was tracked moving along the exact path the pipe bomber took on surveillance video.
Crucially, it says: “The Provider published historical cell site records associated with the COLE CELLPHONE on 20 April 2021. The COLE CELLPHONE engaged in approximately seven data session transactions with towers consistent with the COLE CELLPHONE being in the area of the RNC and DNC on January 5, 2021.”
This means by April 20, 2021, the FBI had geolocation data placing Brian Cole Jr.’s personal cell phone at both bomb sites during the precise times the bombs were planted — and moving in a pattern that matched the suspect’s route on video.
Why this is explosive
FBI had a unique cell-phone hit at both politically charged locations at the exact times of placement.
They had the suspect’s name (“COLE CELLPHONE”) by at least April 2021.
They had his real-time movement matching the bomber’s path.
Yet they did nothing publicly for over 4.5 years and continued to claim the suspect was “still at large.”

Julie Kelly’s caption — “Did Biden’s FBI identify Brian Cole Jr. in April 2021?” — is not speculation. The documents appear to prove it.This raises serious questions about why the case was apparently buried for years, especially given Cole’s reported left-leaning political background and the intense focus during the same period on prosecuting Trump supporters involved in January 6.



I've always called FBI the Gestapo. Heads should roll. This is yuuge. For years FBI pretended to investigate offering cash awards of $500K. Yet they knew who it was..
The unanswered questions now can only be . Who sent him?

On December 5, 2025, former President Joe Biden spoke at the International LGBTQ+ Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C., where he accepted the Chris Abele Impact Award for his administration's work on LGBTQ+ rights (e.g., appointing about 15% LGBTQ+ individuals to roles

He made some gaffes.
We're the United States of Amerigotit! That's who we are! We're the US!"

He also forgot the name of his WH black lesbian Spox Karine Jean-Pierre wrong

TDS afflicted users grieving about Somalis. Come here.
WH Deputy Chief of staff Miller "We believe that the Somali fraud operation in Minnesota is the single greatest theft of taxpayer dollars, through welfare fraud, in American history... and we believe that what we are going to uncover is going to shock the American people." .
Nur Ilhan Elmi Said Omar received $7000 in donations from the proceeds of the fraud but she returned it after the Feeding the Future owners were indicted.
Feeding the Future organisers claimed to be serving thousands of meals per day. The actual figure was probably 50.

One site operator, Salim Said, claimed his Safari Restaurant was serving 5,000 children per day, seven days a week, by July 2020.
Another site, Advance Youth Athletic Development, also falsely claimed to serve up to 5,000 meals a day.
The Gurley Deli location fraudulently claimed to serve between 2,000 to 3,000 children a day.
Another individual, Mekfira Hussein, claimed her company "Shamsia Hopes" was feeding as many as 5,000 children a day, seven days a week.
Overall, the defendants in the entire scheme falsely claimed to have served 91 million meals in total, for which they fraudulently received nearly $250 million in federal funds.

Nur Ilhan Elmi Omar celebrated her victory at the Safari Restaurant. She has 3 children with Ahmed Hirsi whom she claims to have married in a traditional faith based marriage in 2002. Last child born circa 2011 father is Ahmed Hirsi ,when she was already married to Ahmed Nur Said Elmi (her brother).


Tim Walz led other states in suing the Trump admin from blocking the SNAP program. While he had been turning a blind eye to the massive fraud operation brought to his personal attention .( They say the combined fraud might go upto $8 billion, Nigeria military budget for 2025 is $3.2 billion).

Reports indicate that Gov. Walz and his son received campaign contributions from individuals who attended a meeting with him in December 2021 where campaign donations were discussed


Attorney General Keith Ellison also recieved a donation of $10,000 from those individuals. Keith Ellison is a muslim also.
He prosecuted Derek Chauvni who is now appealing for a retrial after citing evidence the initial coroner was forced to change his opinion that a standard police procedure ,knee on the back caused St George of Fentanyl's death . His report " No physical findings to support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation".
On medical fraud ,
Prosecutors allege schemes where providers recruited Somali families, issued false diagnoses, and paid kickbacks ($300–$1,500 per child monthly) to parents for enrolling children in therapy programs. This inflated claims, with one case involving $14 million in fraudulent Medicaid billings.
The rate of autism among Somali children is 7 times higher than other Minnesota racial groups

Why would Trump not be pissed off.
I'm told we have a medical specialist here.
2018. Millions of dollars being floen out. Investigation led to nowhere.

In the first one they jumped back in and were attempting to seek help on radio. Bradley ordered the boat struck.

As if FBI has never framed anyone.


Four Wrongfully Convicted Men (Boston FBI Frame-Up) (Massachusetts/Federal)
Sentence: Life without parole (each)
Served: 30–35+ years (1965 convictions; exonerated 2001–2011)
Four men (Peter Limone, Henry Tamargo, Louie Greco, Joseph Salvati) were framed for a 1965 gangland murder using fabricated testimony from FBI informant Joseph Barboza, protected to cover up the bureau's mob ties. Declassified files showed FBI agents knew of their innocence but withheld evidence; under Robert Mueller's watch (1980s–early 2000s), the bureau stonewalled releases. Two died in prison; survivors won $100M+ settlements.
Liberty City Seven (Florida/Federal)
Sentence: 13–17 years (average)
Served: 10–15 years (2006–2017, some released early)

Seven Black and Latino men from a struggling Miami community were entrapped by paid FBI informant Elie Assaad (with a history of domestic violence) into a fake Al Qaeda plot to bomb federal buildings. No prior terrorism links; the "plot" was informant-driven with no real threat. Convictions upheld but later criticized as overreach; one (Narseal Perez) had his sentence vacated in 2016 for ineffective counsel.
Newburgh Four (New York/Federal)
Sentence: 25 years (each)
Served: 10+ years (2009–ongoing, appeals pending)

Four low-income, mostly Muslim men were framed in an FBI-orchestrated synagogue bombing plot by informant James Cromitie, paid $250K+ to recruit and provide fake explosives. They had no jihadist history; defense claims full entrapment. Appeals in 2011–2016 highlighted fabricated intent; a 2011 judge called it "a terrible decision" but upheld convictions.
Fort Dix Five (New Jersey/Federal)
Sentence: 13–33 years (2008 convictions; appeals 2009–2016)
Served: 8–10 years (released 2015–2018 on time served)

Five Albanian-American brothers and a friend were entrapped by two paid informants into a fake plot to attack Fort Dix Army base. Informants posed as jihadists, supplied weapons, and scripted the scheme; no evidence of independent planning. Appeals cited overreach; one informant had fled child rape charges.
Englewood Four (Illinois)
Sentence: 55–80 years (1994 convictions; exonerated 2010–2011)
Served: 16–17 years

Four Black teens (Michael Saunders, Vincent Thames, Harold Richardson, Terrill Swift) were framed for a 1994 rape-murder by Chicago police (with FBI involvement in interrogation reviews), via coerced false confessions and planted DNA evidence. A 2016 FBI 302 report confirmed prosecutor admission of coercion; linked to broader "Midnight Crew" torture scandal framing dozens.

Eric McDavid (California/Federal)
Sentence: 19 years 8 months
Served: 9 years (2007–2016)
Environmental activist entrapped by FBI informant "Anna" (paid $65K+), who posed as a girlfriend, initiated a "cell," and fabricated an eco-terror plot (e.g., fake explosives). McDavid had no prior violence; her notes showed she pushed the scheme. Pardoned by Obama in 2015; released 2016, winning a $900K settlement.

Sundiata Acoli (New Jersey/Federal)
Sentence: Life (commuted 2022)
Served: 49 years (1973 conviction; post-1980 appeals)
Black Panther activist framed for a 1973 state trooper shooting via withheld FBI ballistics evidence proving he wasn't the shooter. COINTELPRO files (declassified 1980s) showed informant orchestration; Amnesty International called it political repression. Released on parole in 2022 at age 85.

Hamid Hayat (California/Federal)
Sentence: 24 years (reduced; 2006 conviction)
Served: 4 years (deported 2010)
Pakistani-American farmworker framed in an FBI "homegrown terror" sting for attending a Taliban camp (no evidence) and lying to agents. Coerced confession after 5-hour interrogation; 2006–2016 probes showed fabricated links to Lodi mosque "plot." Appeals revealed informant perjury; immigration courts later deemed him innocent.

Tarik Shah (New York/Federal)
Sentence: 15 years
Served: 10+ years (2007–ongoing)
Jazz musician and martial arts instructor entrapped by FBI informant Mahmoud Omar into a fake Al Qaeda training camp plot. Shah had no radical ties; informant recorded 30+ meetings to build a case. 2011 appeals cited entrapment; supporters argue full framing to target Muslim communities post-9/11.

Yassin Aref & Mohammed Hossain (New York/Federal)
Sentence: 15 years each
Served: 8 years (2006–2014)
Albany mosque imam and pizza shop owner framed in an FBI sting for a fake missile sale tied to "terrorism financing." Paid informant posed as a loan shark; no real plot or intent. Declassified files showed fabricated urgency; sentences commuted by Obama in 2014 after IG probe confirmed overreach.

1. No “kill everybody” or “no quarter” order ever came from SecDef Hegseth or anyone else.
2. The two survivors were deliberately targeted in the second strike because they were actively communicating, maneuvering, and assessed as continuing the drug run with other boats nearby.
3. The operation was conducted under formal written orders with real-time intelligence and full JAG legal review.

Takeaway: After seeing the actual video and hearing Bradley’s sworn account, bipartisan committee leaders (Cotton, Warner, Coons, Himes, etc.) confirmed the strikes were lawful, proportionate, and followed established counter-narcotics rules of engagement. The testimony and footage directly refuted war-crime allegations, leaving no credible basis for those claims.



Cheap shot. This would've been worse, the Apache crew acted in accordance with the Rules of Engagement. The keyboard warriors and politicians job is to scream about war crimes to the nearest microphone.

Autopen scandal.

🚨 BOMBSHELL: Biden’s former Chief of Staff ADMITS he didn’t even write the autopen approval email for presidential pardons — his assistant did. And there was no clear chain of authorization from Biden himself.

This is stunning.

Under sworn questioning, Biden’s former Chief of Staff openly acknowledged that:

✔️ He didn’t type the approval.
✔️ His assistant, Rosa, wrote it.
✔️ She had full access to his email.
✔️ No one could tell which emails she wrote and which he wrote.
✔️ Instructions were passed verbally through multiple people — like a game of telephone.

Here are the killer quotes:

Did you write the email approving the autopen?

“I do not believe I did.”

Who wrote it?

“Rosa.”

Did Rosa have access to your email?

“Yes.”

Could anyone tell which emails were from you and which were from Rosa?

“Not that I know of.”

He admits the entire system worked like this:

“Rosa gave me a phone call… I assume Bruce and Ed walked back from the meeting… and told her to reach me.”
“We were 16 hours from the end of the administration… people were off-boarding… it was thinly staffed.”
“She sent the email because I was at home and time was of the essence.”

He even admits she frequently sent emails under his name:

“It wasn’t infrequent… I’d tell her ‘email Jake Sullivan this’ or ‘email Staff Sec that.’”

And the punchline:

“There’s no way staff could delineate between an email I wrote and one Rosa wrote.”

So let’s spell this out:

The Biden White House’s official presidential pardon approvals — one of the most legally sensitive processes in government — were signed by autopen, approved through a verbal relay, sent by an assistant using someone else’s email, and no one can verify who actually wrote the messages.

This is not “paperwork sloppiness.”

This is total breakdown of presidential authority and chain of command.

And it directly implicates:

• Biden
• Bruce Reed
• Ed Siskel
• Top White House staff
• The so-called “ethics oversight process”

The Biden inner circle turned the pardon system into a back-channel free-for-all.

They can’t even prove Biden himself approved what was signed in his name.

This scandal is only getting bigger.

---Another L for the Felon-In-Chief---

Grand jury declines to indict N.Y. Attorney General Letitia James, less than two weeks after the first case was dismissed
Federal officials failed to secure the new indictment against James, whom Trump has targeted, after a judge said the previous one was secured by an unlawfully appointed prosecutor

Further you should read. Can never understand why you people support blatant law breakers.

🚨 MEGYN KELLY JUST BLEW UP LETITIA JAMES’ DEFENSE.
A text message to her own accountant may be the nail in the coffin — and it points straight to mortgage fraud and tax fraud.

According to Kelly, DOJ’s new evidence includes a March 28, 2024 text from Letitia James that reads:

“I do not want to take a deduction. It looks suspicious.”

Here’s the problem:
She HAD been taking that deduction for years — treating her Virginia property as an investment property on her taxes to get better write-offs… while telling her mortgage lender it was a primary residence she would live in.

That’s textbook mortgage fraud — and the paper trail is all hers.

Kelly lays it out:

🔹 James claimed the Virginia home was an investment property to the IRS
🔹 Took deductions consistent with that classification
🔹 Those deductions show she never intended to live there, violating the mortgage terms she agreed to
🔹 She kept doing this for YEARS
🔹 Suddenly, in March 2024 — as polls showed Trump surging — she panicked and told her accountant not to take the deduction because it “looks suspicious”

She knew exactly what she’d been doing.

Kelly says the timing isn’t a coincidence:
Trump was the 2024 nominee. Biden was collapsing. James saw that Trump could return — and that meant someone might actually look at her filings.

And now?
The case against her is stronger than ever.
If the dismissal of her case gets upheld on appeal or not, Kelly says a grand jury WILL re-indict her — because the evidence is overwhelming.

Letitia James is COOKED.
And this time, it’s her own paper trail doing the damage.

Excuses, excuses, excuses. For the same thing you people wanted to eat someone raw for.
I don't know why he was sleeping so when you bring up such , you should consider there could be other factors not related to his health .. which was your insinuation.

Basilico, raumdeuter.

Please come and carry your hypocritical lord and personal saviour.. this is the same human being carrying out extra judicial killings on the eastern Pacific and caribbean Sea..

Americans would fully see through the con artist for who he really is pretty soon..
You are now quiet about extra judicial killings of fishermen with
1200 HP fastboats. .
Well SOCOM Commander Admiral Bradley was grilled by the Senate Intelligence Committee yesterday.
Adm. Bradley was very clear that he was given no such order, not to give no quarter or to kill them all," Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said.

That cleared up Hegseth to your chagrin.

According to the officials who spoke to the Journal, Bradley ordered the additional strikes after noting that other suspected drug boats were nearby and the survivors were thought to be attempting to communicate with their cohorts by radio
Lawmakers viewed video of the strikes, as Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) explained. He said it was completely justified because the people in the water were continuing in their actions.

Epic fail.
Democrat will now move on to the next attack vector.
They have also failed with the IG report on Hegseth.
Pentagon Spox
"The Inspector General review is a TOTAL exoneration of Secretary Hegseth and proves what we knew all along — no classified information was shared. This matter is resolved, and the case is closed."

On a personal level.What was your interest in this matter? Justice for narco terrorists , Hegseth dismissal or good old TDS?

A judge yesterday ordered OpenAI /Microsoft to produce a sample 20 million chat logs to New York Times for review within 7 days.
NYT initially demanded 1.4 billion chat logs.

Case centres on NYT suing OpenAI that it used it's resources without permission to train it's Large Language Model. NYT alleges that they need to show that user generated responses may have been derived from their databases.
A serious question of privacy laws. Chatgpt should delete chat logs after 30 days but have been ordered to preserve all chats.

A well researched article on this case here.

https://terms.law/2025/11/12/openai-v-new-york-times-stopped-being-just-a-copyright-case-the-moment-the-court-turned-to-your-chatgpt-logs/

A lot of people trust chatbots, with some getting romantically involved. (Others like basilico use it a lot to expound on materials to counter liberal falsehoods).
People need to know that the bots learn from every interaction with it. It retains whatever information you give it, whether the actual logs are deleted.
I rarely use Search engines nowadays , those bots summarize, analyze and provide any links I want.
