Not a Joke: Government-Endorsed Corporate Media Gives Award to Dishonest WaPo Hack for “Capturing the Spirit of Joe Biden”

These people are the worst.
Last night the government-endorsed corporate media gave an award to WaPo hack Matt Viser for his dishonest portrayals of Joe Biden.

Matt Viser was awarded for his reporting on Joe Biden that did not include ONE MENTION of his obvious dementia, his myriads of known criminal actions and canoodling with dictators, lying about his son’s laptop to the American public during a major election, disowning his grand-child, and his serial groping of women and children.

It takes some real talent to be THAT dishonest!

it makes you wonder how many fluff pieces Matt wrote for President Trump during his first term in office? I think we all know the answer to that.

These elites are truly soulless.

Rep. James Comer Claims Hunter Biden’s Legal Team is Intimidating Witnesses (VIDEO)

Republican Rep. James Comer of Kentucky is a leading figure in the investigation into Hunter Biden’s shady business dealings.

According to Comer, people on the Biden legal team are intimidating witnesses in order to blunt the investigation.

Sadly, this is easy to believe.

Townhall reports:

Comer Alleges Biden Legal Team Is Intimidating Witnesses: ‘They Fear For Their Lives’

One of the top Republicans leading the probe into Hunter Biden’s shady business affairs claims that the president’s son’s lawyers are using intimidation tactics against whistleblowers and witnesses.

Rep. James Comer (R-KY) said that President Joe Biden’s legal team is threatening potential witnesses, making them fear for their lives.

“We’ve got witnesses that are scared to death to come forward. They fear for their lives,” Comer said, adding that the Hunter Biden legal team has been “testing the limits with respect to witness intimidation.”

The Republican is also accusing Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) of serving as an attorney for the Biden family, who was once all about the support of impeaching former President Trump.

“[As] evidence emerges, thanks to us, about wrongdoing within the Biden family, and he then quickly becomes a defense attorney,” Comer continued.

Comer also claimed that Democrat officials in Congress were bankrolling “dark money groups” to destroy the investigation and paying off witnesses, adding that Left-leaning lawyers are pressuring banks to cooperate with the congressional investigation.

See the video below:

This points to how dishonest our media is.

If this was Trump or members of his family intimidating witnesses, it would be covered constantly and offered as proof of every awful thing that Democrats ever said about Trump and his family.

But Hunter gets protection from the media. So typical.

A Weekend Wrap Up — China, Ukraine and Other Items of Interest

I usually try to drill down on one issue. Not today. There are several items that may not warrant a full article but merit your attention and commentary.

CHINA and UKRAINE — The western media completely missed the boat on last week’s phone call between Xi Jinping and Volodomyr Zelensky. The CNN commentary is a prime example of the misinterpretation of this call:

A long-awaited phone call between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday has received a tentative welcome in Washington and parts of Europe for its potential to increase dialogue toward resolving Russia’s brutal war in Ukraine.

It also marks the most concrete step made to date by China to take up the role of mediator that it has for months alluded to playing.

But the hour-long conversation, believed to be the first between the two leaders in the fourteen months since Russia invaded Ukraine, also comes with few tangible proposals for how China might help to bridge the devastating, war-torn divide between the two countries.

Let us start with some facts. Zelensky called Xi, not the other way around. And Zelensky reportedly did this without consulting Washington, which left the Biden foreign policy team fuming. More telling is that Xi did the conversation with a Russian translator. Got it? China supposedly could not find a single Chinese linguist who spoke Ukrainian. Are you buying that? I’m not. China, a nation skilled at diplomacy and the talent of sending powerful messages with subtle gestures, deliberately forced Zelensky to deal with Xi using the Russian language. While it is possible that the Chinese were just being kind to Zelensky, who is not a native Ukrainian speaker and his grasp of that language is awkward at best, it is more likely that China was reminding Ukraine that it is in a new partnership with Russia.

Xi Jinping, according to the Chinese readout, was very direct with Zelensky bywarning him not to support the U.S. policy towards Taiwan. If Ukraine fails to heed that warning, then China will treat Ukraine with the same disdain it reserves for the inept Biden Administration.

The West foolishly believes that Xi Jinping views Vladimir Putin as his personal organ grinder’s monkey — an insignificant, second class toy of no import. Wrong. Putin has defense technologies that Xi does not. The recent summit in Moscow between the Russian and Chinese leaders, not just Xi but his Foreign and Defense ministers as well, delivered a powerful message to the world — Xi came to Putin, not the other way around.

Saudi Arabia Accelerates its Break with Washington:

One of the other consequences of the summit between Putin and Xi Jinping is Saudi Arabia’s volte-face on foreign policy and total rejection of letting America call the shots in the Middle East. Looks like Joe Biden won’t be getting an invite to do a sword dance with the Saudis:

The Saudis, by words and deeds, have put the kibosh on the U.S. policy to isolate Iran and destroy any regime friendly to the Mullahs in Tehran. Here are two of the latest headlines:

Kingdom of Saudi Arabia seeks to establish formal relations with Hezbollah – Al Akhbar

Saudi Arabia, Iran to reopen embassies ‘within days’: Minister
Announcement comes after the two countries agreed to restore diplomatic relations during talks in China last month.

Establishing relations with Hezbollah, identified by America as one of the most virulent terrorist organizations in the world, is the Saudis sending Washington a stark message that it is no longer going to play the game of pitting Sunni against Shia muslims. This is one more piece of evidence that the Saudis are serious about forging a new relationship with Iran. The rapprochement between the Saudis and Iran also is bringing an end to the 8 year civil war in Yemen and opening the door for Syria’s Bashir Assad to be welcomed back into the Arab League. In short, the foundation of U.S. policy in the Middle East has been blown up.

The Anticipated Ukrainian Summer Blockbuster is Going to Be a Flop

The public relations build up for the long awaited Ukrainian counter-offensive to drive Russia out of the Donbas and Crimea reminds me of the Walt Disney Company hyping a the release of a woke Cinderella reboot, which features a transgender Princess and a LGBTQ Prince Charming. No amount of advertising and media campaign will take the stink off of that turd. The Times of London apparently has gotten a secret memo that the expected Ukrainian offensive may be lacking:

American intelligence does not believe in the success of a possible counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Ukraine is unlikely to achieve major successes in the event of a counteroffensive, it is not ready for it, the Times newspaper writes, citing US intelligence data that previously got into the Internet.

“Leaked US intelligence assessments show that Ukraine (during the counteroffensive. – Editor’s note) is unlikely to achieve anything more than modest territorial gains from entrenched Russian troops,” the publication says.

The Prime Minister of Ukraine Denis Shmygal in early April stated that the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine could begin in the summer. He later said that it would take place “in the near future.” The American media, in turn, wrote that the Ukrainian offensive was allegedly scheduled for April 30. One of the directions is called the Zaporozhye region in order to reach the coast of the Sea of Azov.

There is always the possibility, albeit remote, that this is a piece of propaganda designed to lull the Russians into complacency. Could it be that Ukraine and the West are playing dumb in the same way that Ronald Reagan, the Mastermind, was portrayed in this iconic Saturday Night Live sketch?

Nah. They are not that good or clever. We are dealing with a malevolent clown show — incompetents who are not entertaining. The failure of the Ukrainian counter offensive is going to exacerbate tensions in Europe. Poland already is sending up a warning flare:

The head of the General Staff of the Polish Army, Rajmund Andrzejczak, spoke about the dangerous situation with national security in Poland.

“We simply do not have ammunition. The industry is not only not ready to supply equipment to Ukraine, but also cannot replenish our own reserves, which are rapidly melting,” he admitted.

Poland’s allies do not understand the seriousness of the situation and are “under illusions,” which is “surprising and even shocking,” he added.

I totally agree with General Andrzejczak.

Elon Musk and Bill Maher Discuss the ‘Woke Mind Virus’ and the Radicalization of the Left (VIDEO)

Elon Musk appeared on Bill Maher’s ‘Real Time’ show on Friday night and the two had a fascinating discussion.

It’s sometimes easy to forget that Maher and Musk are not conservatives. Both men consider themselves to be liberals, and they are. You could make a case that they are classical liberals, but liberals just the same.

It is only because the left has gone so far left, so fast, that Musk and Maher have been mistaken for men of the right. This is not lost on them.

Variety has details:

Elon Musk Talks Twitter, Censorship and the ‘Woke Mind Virus’ on ‘Real Time With Bill Maher’

Tech billionaire Elon Musk appeared for a conversation on “Real Time With Bill Maher” on Friday.

Musk, who purchased Twitter last year, discussed with the host his acquisition of the company, free speech, censorship and what he calls the “woke mind virus.”

“I think we need to be very cautious about anything that is anti-meritocratic and anything that results in the suppression of free speech,” Musk said to Maher. “So those are two of the aspects of the ‘woke mind virus’ that I think are very dangerous…. you can’t question things, even the questioning is bad. Almost synonymous would be cancel culture. And obviously people have tried to cancel you many times.”

Maher responded, “And it’s interesting, you and I are both in that little group of people, maybe it’s a bigger group now, who are called conservative who haven’t really changed. I don’t think of you as a conservative.”

Musk said he “at least” thinks of himself “as a moderate.”

“I’ve spent a massive amount of my life energy building sustainable energy, electric vehicles and batteries and solar and stuff to help save the environment,” Musk said. “It’s not exactly far-right.”

Watch the clip:

They also discussed Tucker Carlson and his viral video:

You can watch the whole segment here:

Maher and Musk should both be cheered by people on the right for defending free speech.

It’s a shame that more famous liberals haven’t done the same.

The Return of Donald Trump – Good for Poland Too

[NOTE FROM LARRY JOHNSON — I am not the author of this piece. It is the work of Michal Krupa, a Canadian citizen of Polish heritage who lives in Poland. I have had the privilege of appearing on Mike’s podcast.]

If his March 16th statement is anything to go by, Donald Trump has, for one, come out guns blazing at the Globalist American Empire like never before, and, two, he has highlighted important issues that are completely at odds with the current Western, Ukraine-centric narrative of “wanting to see Russia weakened”, to which many so-called conservatives have signed up to. Remember that mini gun scene from Terminator 2? Well, in terms of political rhetoric, Trump’s statement was the sure equivalent.

As I have only now read the entire transcript of the statement, it has only now dawned on me how radical Trump’s message was.

He opens his statement with the following observation: “We have never been closer to World War III than we are today under Joe Biden. A global conflict between nuclear-armed powers would mean death and destruction on a scale unmatched in human history.” Trump indicates that only new leadership can change this destructive course of action.

It would not be a stretch to point out that the same animating spirit that pushed President Kennedy to sue for peace in October 1962 is animating the current sentiments expressed by Trump. If one considers how the cabal of warmongers surrounding JFK were all in for a showdown in the Caribbean and connects this with the observations that followed Trump’s statement, one could say its “deja-vu all over again.” Trump calls for nothing less than a complete overhaul of the “State Department, the defense bureaucracy, the intelligence services” to “fire the Deep Staters and put America First.” If this does not sound like an expanded version of splintering the CIA “into a thousand pieces” and scattering it in the wind, as JFK was reported as saying after the Bay of Pigs debacle, I don’t know what does. Trump is tapping into a tradition of foreign policy realism and restraint that stretches from George F. Kennan, through Senator Robert F. Taft, Presidents Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan, the populists Pat Buchanan, Ross Perot, Ralph Nader, the great Ron Paul, and taking it to the next level – clearly identifying the culprits and calling for their expulsion from the realm of decision making.

Talk about being unleashed.

But the essence, the “meat”, if you will, of Trump’s March 16 statement, what makes it truly radical, are the following words: “Our foreign policy establishment keeps trying to pull the world into conflict with a nuclear-armed Russia based on the lie that Russia represents our greatest threat. But the greatest threat to Western Civilization today is not Russia. It’s probably, more than anything else, ourselves and some of the horrible, U.S.A. hating people that represent us.”

You may ask, Dear Reader, what does all this have to do with Poland? If Trump really believes what he outlined in this segment of his short address and wants to align the debate in the terms set above, he would be doing my native Poland a big favor. Not to dwell too much on the history of Polish-American relations after 1989, I would humbly submit the reader reach for John Pomfret’s excellent book From Warsaw with Love. Polish Spies, the CIA, and the Forging of an Unlikely Alliance. It’s enough to say that in his review of the book, The Washington Post’s Joseph Kanon summarized the history of the literal CIA takeover and subordination of the Polish intelligence agencies as follows: “Pomfret’s apt title is only half a joke. The Poles were prepared to do almost anything to cement the relationship.”

The word anything is the one which needs to be stressed in that observation.

Ever since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, to quote Dr. Gordon Hahn, Poland has been acting as “chief-arsonist in the region”. If the neocons have wet dreams of what a perfect policy aimed at Russia would look like, Poland, sadly, is exhibit A.

Our essentially open-border policy of flooding Poland with anyone from Ukraine since February 2022 has hit Poland with a human wave unseen in our history. As was pointed out in a policy paper last year: “With the scale of the Ukrainian presence as large as it is now, Poland is in danger of becoming a country of fractured identity and constant factional fighting along ethnic and cultural dividing lines, as is happening both in countries where historical minorities are numerous, and in countries of mass immigration adopting the model of multiculturalism.” The daily Rzeczpospolita, in a report from March 13 on criminality among immigrants residing in Poland, noted: “Last year, 12,437 foreigners (more than half were Ukrainian citizens) heard charges. In less than a month this year (through January 23) there have already been 1,648, indicating a growing trend. Statistically, per day last year, charges were announced against 34 newcomers, this year it is already 71.” The report goes on to observe that drug offenses have seen the biggest doubling – from 993 in 2020 to 2100 last year. Their possession is the second (after driving while intoxicated) of the most common offenses committed by Ukrainianshalf of all such acts involve them. This is obviously only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to other associated problems stemming from massive movement of peoples, spurred by the Western provoked the war in Ukraine. The fact that the hashtag #StopUkrainizationOfPoland was trending just w few months back is not a coincidence. When commercials on television are being run with Ukrainian subtitles, when the labor market is being flooded with cheap labor and Ukrainian/Russian is becoming the second unofficial language, heard literally everywhere, and the spokesperson of the Polish Foreign Ministry proudly claims that Polish state institutions are “servants of the Ukrainian people and their requests”, you know something is wrong.

Amid this unprecedented wave of foreigners flowing into what until recently was a tightly homogenous ethnically Poland, depletion of our military equipment, Russian nuclear weapons being currently stored in Belarus, soaring inflation, the elites in Warsaw, backed by the likes of Jake Sullivan, Anthony Blinken, Victoria Nuland and no doubt a whole slew of intelligence Deep State operatives – the same ones targeting Trump – are living out their dream of trying to stick it to Putin. But, as Trump has pointed out correctly, the enemy is within – in Washington, in Brussels, in Warsaw – not in Moscow.

The same entities and people, who have set a political target (hopefully only political!) on Donald Trump’s back, are the same ones manipulating the masses here and in the United States that Russia is the enemy of us all. Should Donald Trump win a second term he would take much of the wind out of the sails of the Eastern European coterie, that acts as the perfect excuse for the Deep State in Washington and military-industrial complex to justify their malign activities by saying to average Americans: see, they themselves feel threatened, we need to help them.

The Polish Government has no respect for the American taxpayer. There is no reason that men from Kansas should be risking their lives to bring about the fantasy of resurrecting a geopolitical entity from 700 years ago, this time aimed squarely at nuclear armed Russia, taking its cue from the cabal of warmongers on the Potomac.

No. As a Pole, I do not consider Russia my enemy.

American troops should not be stationed in Poland acting as outposts for neocon fantasies.

I do not consider the current corrupt regime in Kiev to be my friend.

Rainbow flags flying alongside Ukrainian flags over Poland anger me much more than Russian flags flying over Crimea or the Donbass.

We need to turn our political guns and righteous anger on the enemy within – the globalists and their willing accomplices, the advocates of our civilization’s apocalypse, especially the ones who remain conservative and patriotic in name only.

Donald Trump must be the striking hammer that decimates this godless agenda.

For the sake of peace and sanity, he must continue to hammer away at this message of hardheaded realism and peace, as well as lead by example in selecting a shadow cabinet of people dedicated to crushing any prospect of World War III. In doing so he not only champions an America First agenda, but also all that is good and true in Western Civilization – our common home.

Larry Johnson and Judge Napolitano Discuss Prospects for Ukraine’s Counter Offensive

I had a brain fart during the interview and referred to the Brits sending “uranium” rounds. I meant to say DEPLETED URANIUM. In any event, if this is true it marks a turning point in the war. Russia has been adamant that any such provision would be seen as attacking Russia with a nuclear device. I do not believe the Russians were making an idle threat.

I also am including the Judge’s interviews with Scott Ritter and Alastair Crooke. Terrific line up today. The Judge hit the trifecta.

Did Obama’s Netflix Buddies Fund Zelensky’s Presidential Bid with $11 Million?

 

In 2016, Netflix bought the rights to the Ukrainian TV series “Servant of the People” (Sluha Naroda) starring comedian Volodomyr Zelensky for 2017 to 2021 from Zelensky’s studio “Kvartal 95” for $11 million. US-based Netflix does not usually buy a lot of Ukrainian TV shows. The Netflix rights lapsed in 2021, but were renewed in March 2022, shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine 2022.

In 2018, Netflix signed a deal with Barack and Michelle Obama’s Higher Ground Productions, despite their lack of experience as film producers. It is unclear how much Netflix paid the Obamas, as Variety reported. In March 2018, Penguin Random House signed the couple to a joint book deal that paid them a reported $65 million for their memoirs. In 2022, Obama won an Emmy for “Best Narrator” for his Netflix documentary series, Our Great National Parks.

Obama confidante Susan Rice sat on the Netflix board 2018 to 2020, when she joined the Biden administration as Director of the Domestic Policy Council. Rice will be leaving the White House May 26, 2023 after charges she neglected migrant children.

Speaking at the World Economic Forum May 24, 2022, Barack Obama’s first major backer George Soros said that Joe Biden was “very deeply involved in Ukraine, in fact I got to know him in Ukraine. He had a lot more patience than I had trying to convert Poroshenko into a democratic leader. I became fed up with him, and I told him so. Biden kept on trying to convert Poroshenko into a democrat.”

Looking at the timing of the Netflix deal, it is conceivable Netflix helped fund Zelensky’s bid to replace Petro Poroshenko as Ukrainian President on behalf of the Obama-Soros faction.

Zelensky’s TV series “Servant of the People” originally aired on the 1+1 channel in Ukraine, which is owned by shady oligarch Ihor Kolomoisky, founder of the neo-Nazi Azov Brigade. Kolomoisky is also thought to be the real owner of corrupt natural gas company Burisma Holdings, as Peter Schweizer wrote in “Secret Empires”.

In 2017, Zelensky founded a political party also named “Servant of the People” and was elected President in 2019. His campaign was backed by Kolomoisky, who provided limousines and security. Former President Petro Poroshenko was shocked to be upstaged by an actor, who suddenly had a bigger budget and better media coverage than the President. After he won the election, Zelensky appointed several Kolomoisky allies to his staff, including chief of security Maksym Donets and lawyer Andriy Bogdan.

According to an investigation led by Volodymyr Ariev, an MP from Petro Poroshenko’s faction, Kolomoisky used Zelensky’s companies for money laundering. From 2012 to 2016, $41 million went from Kolomoisky’s Privatbank into the accounts of Zelensky and Co. companies, Ariev claims. According to the Pandora Papers released by Soros-funded OCCRP (Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project), Zelensky and his partners owned a network of offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands, Cyprus, and Belize.

Burisma Holdings paid Hunter Biden $1 million a year 2014-2017 to provide access to his father, Vice-President Joe Biden. In total, Burisma paid Hunter Biden at least $4 million from 2014 to 2019.

On May 22, 2015, as pressure from Burisma mounted to help the company get off the hook, Hunter Biden e-mailed then-Deputy Secretary of State Tony Blinken to set up a meeting. “Hunter was told he would be ushered through the diplomatic entrance of the State Department”, Miranda Devine writes in Laptop from Hell. In reality, Blinken “sent somebody downstairs to smuggle Hunter  in the back door into his office so whe wouldn’t have to sign in”, Devine told Maria Bartiromo.

The meeting was scheduled for July 22. “Blinken testifed to the Grassley-Johnson inquiry that he couldn’t remember the conversation” and “claimed he had no idea Hunter was on Burisma’s board”, Devine writes.

In 2016, Joe Biden forced Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to fire Ukrainian Attorney General Victor Shokin, who was investigating corruption at Burisma. “Yesterday I met with General Prosecutor Shokin, and despite of the fact that we didn’t have any corruption charges, we don’t have any information about him doing something wrong, I specially asked him … to resign”, Poroshenko told Biden on a February 18, 2016 phone call.

On May 13, 2016, Biden congratulated Poroshenko on “getting the new Prosecutor General,” saying that it will be “critical for him to work quickly to repair the damage Shokin did.” “And I’m a man of my word,” Biden adds. “And now that the new Prosecutor General is in place, we’re ready to move forward to signing that one billion dollar loan guarantee.”

Speaking at the Council on Foreign Relations on Jan. 23, 2108, Joe Biden recounted getting Victor Shokin fired: “I had gotten a commitment from Poroshenko and from Yatsenyuk that they would take action against the state prosecutor. And they didn’t. So  I said, nah, we’re not going to give you the billion dollars. … I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money. Well, son of a bitch. (Laughter.) He got fired.”

After Joe Biden left office, Burisma halved payments to the Bidens on March 19, 2017, from $83.333 to $41.500 a month.

Hunter Biden claims to have resigned from the Burisma board in April 2019.

Ihor Kolomoisky was banned from entering the USA March 7, 2021, with the State Department saying he was involved in “significant corruption” and using his “political influence and official power for his personal benefit.” On Feb. 1, 2023, Ukrainian authorities raided the home of Ihor Kolomoisky.

According to former Ukrainian security service (SBU) agent Vasily Prozorov, the Ukrainian government diverted up to $800 million from the International Monetary Fund’s $17.5 billion Ukraine. Part of this money was used to fund Hillary Clinton’s campaign, funneled via Austrian Meinl Bank, Kolomoisky’s Privatbank and others, Prozorov charged. Ukrainian oligarch Victor Pinchuk donated more than $ 29 million to the “Clinton Foundation” 2012-2016, as Kate Matberg wrote.

Privatbank was nationalized 2016 after Kolomoisky was accused of embezzling $5.5 billion.

WE WERE RIGHT: Latest Twitter Files Release Uncovers Lies that Russian Accounts Impacted 2016 Election

The latest Twitter Files release  (#21)  provides more evidence that the narrative that Russian accounts were materially impacting US elections was a lie.   This is exactly what TGP said years ago. 

Before the 2016 Election, the Hillary and Obama gang was scared that President Trump might win and then look into their crimes so they created the lie that candidate Trump was tied to Russians.

The fact was that the Obama Administration, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, had allowed the sale of a significant amount of US uranium to the Russians for millions.  In return the Clintons received millions and we don’t know how much the rest of the Obama Administration received.  This action is referred to as Uranium One.

The Obama Administration participated in a crime spree.  It spied on the Trump Administration, gave billions to Iran, opened the southern border, created sanctuary cities, backed corrupt Soros activities, and now we know participated in human trafficking of minors.

These people were conflicted and they did not want to get found out.  So they made up Russia collusion.

To make their false narrative appear real, those involved in the Russia collusion lie went to Twitter and asked Twitter to identify Russian accounts interfering in the 2016 Election.  The Obama and Clinton lackeys then used this information to claim Russian interference.

TGP in February 2018 determined that the Russian bots that the left was saying interfered in the 2016 election only garnered 175k retweets.  It was all a lie.

Here’s the Complete List of Russian Twitter Bot Accounts – Top Tweets from Top Russian Accounts Only Garnered 175K Retweets!

The latest Twitter file thread dug deeper into this narrative. When first requested to list Russian accounts by corrupt Senator Warner, Twitter only found 179 accounts.

Twitter was forced to change how it identified Russians and the result was to include basically anyone as a Russian.  Even Green Party candidate Jill Stein was labeled a Russian.

The corrupt and dishonest Big Media (Mainstream Media) used this BS to push the Trump-Russia BS narrative.  It was all a lie.

A couple of Clemson professors became experts in the ‘let’s call everything a Russian’ lie.

After years of pushing the Russia bot lie, one Clemson professor said that Russian trolls are not as prevalent as you think.

TGP was right.  And again, as we uncover the truth, individuals at Twitter, corrupt Senator Warner and the rest of his gang, and so-called “experts” are now properly identified as people who cannot be trusted and never should be again.

“You Don’t Get to Say that S**t!” – Eric Swalwell Throws Fit After GOP Congressman Brings Up Swalwell’s “Checkered Past” with “Yum Yum” (VIDEO)

Credit: New York Post

The House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement held a hearing on Wednesday focused on the child migrant crisis caused by Joe Biden’s lawless immigration policies.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA/China) threw a fit after Congressman Troy Nehls (R-TX) reminded him of his Chinese spy past.

As the Gateway Pundit previously reported, Swalwell started a sexual relationship with Chinese spy and honeypot Fang Fang in 2012. Fang Fang was a “bundler” for Swalwell and other Democrat candidates.

Before his confrontation with Nehls, Swalwell was bullying border advocate Sheena Rodriguez. The New York Post reported Rodriguez was at the hearing to testify regarding migrant children being exploited and forced into the labor market. Rodriguez claimed to have witnessed such abuse during more than three dozen visits to the US-Mexico border.

Instead of trying to learn about the exploitation, Swalwell instead spent his question time haranguing Rodriguez regarding her presence during the January 6, 2021 protests.

Another Texas lawmaker tried to stop Swalwell’s harassment of Rodriguez but was unsuccessful. Then Nehls stepped in and caused Swalwell to melt down.

WATCH (the confrontation begins at :40):

Nehls: I apologize that you had to, you’re here for a hearing on the border, They (Democrats) don’t want to talk about a border.

Mr. Swalwell is down there, obviously everyone knows he’s made some comments. He’s got a checkered past. His alleged relationship…

Swalwell: I’m sorry, a checkered past?

Nehls: It’s my time. “Alleged” affairs, relationships with Yum Yum…

Swalwell: You don’t get to say that s**t! That’s not true.

Nehls: He had alleged relationships with Yum-Yum. Now he’s angry.

An Update on Sudan and a Chat with Emerald Robinson

I always enjoy the opportunity for a virtual sit down with Emerald Robinson to discuss current events on the Global stage. Today she asked my thoughts on Sudan. What the hell is going on there? Or, more specifically, why did the United States have 70 “diplomats” at the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum?

Thanks to Sudan, or more precisely, thanks to what happened in Sudan in the summer of 1994, I became a terrorism talking head on television. Carlos the Jackal aka Ilich Ramírez Sánchez was captured in Sudan. Here is the cover story:

Western intelligence agencies resumed their hunt for Carlos in earnest. He was tracked to Sudan, and in 1994 French agents captured Carlos and returned him to France for trial.

What actually transpired is the CIA in Sudan located and captured the Jackal. The CIA officer credited with organizing and executing that operation was Cofer Black. Black and his crew, working with Sudanese authorities, captured Carlos and turned him over to the French. Black and the CIA were content to let the French take credit for the op, but the French only took custody of the Jackal once he was in hand.

I was contacted by CNN that day and asked to come on air to comment. I provided great sound bite, referring to Carlos as “terrorist emeritus” and that launched my “career” as a counter terrorism expert, which led to hundreds of appearances on all major US networks, all cable channels and even the BBC and Al Jazeera during the ensuing decade.

Interesting side note on Cofer Black, he graduated to lead the CIA Counter Terrorism Center prior to and during 9-11. When he retired from the CIA he because the Ambassador for Counter Terrorism in my old office at the State Department; he did a stint with Blackwater and then, wonder of wonders, snagged a job as a member of the board at Burisma thanks to Hunter and Joe Biden. What a country!

During the same period that Carlos was hanging out in Khartoum, another fellow, Osama Bin Laden, also had taken up residence, starting in 1991, after being banished from Saudi Arabia.

The US listed Sudan as a state sponsor of terrorism in 1993 after accusing its government of harboring the al-Qaeda leader and opening its territories to extremist groups from throughout the world. Bin Laden arrived in Sudan in 1991 under the guise of a businessman and investor. He was close to the Islamic group that was ruling the country and that had adopted jihadist slogans against the West. Bin Laden consequently held several open and secret meetings with the leaders of the Islamic Front, such as Omar al-Bashir and Turabi.

Sources close to the decision-making powers at the Front at the time, said Bashir, the now-ousted president, and his deputy, Ali Osman Taha, had visited Bin Laden at his house in the Riyadh neighborhood in Khartoum to inform him about plans to deport him to Afghanistan.

There are several stories floating around on the internet regarding why Sudan booted Bin Laden in 1996. Some sources claim it was because of U.S. pressure. Others indicate the Sudanese were worried about Egypt retaliating for a failed assassination attempt on an Egyptian official. I personally think that was the impetus.

On 20 August 1998, Bill Clinton ordered the bombing of an alleged “chemical weapons” factory in Sudan in retaliation for the Al Qaeda simultaneous attacks on the U.S. Embassies in Tanzania and Kenya on 7 August 1998. That provided a nice distraction from the political heat Clinton was taking over the revelation that he was getting blow jobs in the Oval Office from an intern. Turns out the targeted pharmaceutical factory at Al Shifa had nothing to do with Bin Laden or Al Qaeda.

Sudan got back into Washington’s good graces in 2015 by signing up to support the CIA backed civil war in Yemen, which pitted the Saudi-backed Government of Yemen against the Iranian supported Houthis.

The RSF (aka Rapid Security Force) is commanded by General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, who currently holds the position of deputy head of Sudan’s ruling Sovereign Council, and who is commonly known as Hemedti. . . . Beginning in 2015, the RSF, along with Sudan’s army, began sending troops to fight in the war in Yemen alongside Saudi and Emirati troops, allowing Hemedti to forge ties with the Gulf powers.

When I learned that the census of the U.S. Embassy in Khartoum 70 officers, I was surprised. That is a large number for a country like Sudan, which is not a critical trading or military partner with the United States. All it offers is location — its coastline is on the Red Sea. Sudan would be an ideal base for the CIA to provide support to the war in Yemen, for example.

It is important to recognize that both the United States and Russia (and a host of other countries like Egypt and Saudi Arabia) maintained contact with both General Dagalo, who was the number two guy in Sudan’s ruling body, and General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan, the head of the Sovereign Council. Al-Burhan and Dagalo, to put it mildly, are rivals and are not best of buddies. We still do not know what triggered the RSF to attack the armed forces loyal to the Sovereign Council. Lots of speculation.

And what about the “bio lab” in Khartoum that is caught up in the conflict and has the W.H.O. spooked?

The World Health Organization (WHO) says there’s a “high risk of biological hazard” at a laboratory caught up in the ongoing conflict in Sudan.

Officials said it was unclear who was behind the occupation of the National Public Health Laboratory in the capital Khartoum.

I have seen some reports that the U.S. National Institutes of Health was funding research in that facility. Could be totally legit, but in the wake of revelations about NIH funding for the Wuhan laboratory and the discovery of multiple bio research labs, funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, in Ukraine, some skepticism is certainly warranted. What kind of research was the U.S. funding?

Sky Australia: “Tucker Carlson was FIRED by Lachlan Murdoch for Discussing Secret US Biolabs in Ukraine!”

Tucker Carlson was fired by Fox owner Lachlan Murdoch personally on Friday over his courageous truth-telling and willingness to call out the Biden Regime corruption in Ukraine, Sky Australia host Andrew Bolt revealed on Tuesday.

While America’s most courageous and popular news anchor has yet to release a statement on his exit at Fox News, host Andrew Bolt at Sky Australia, the original cable news network founded by Rupert Murdoch, said that Tucker Carlson was fired by Fox owner Lachlan Murdoch personally on Friday.

Some had speculated whether Tucker Carlson was fired or had quit over growing differences with the Murdoch family. “He was sacked by Lachlan Murdoch, the day-to-day boss of News Corp. now that his father Rupert has stepped back. And the scoop is that he was sacked essentially for thinking that he was bigger than Fox News”, Bolt said.

“Maybe now some other hosts will realize it is Lachlan Murdoch who runs the business, and it’s not them… Last week, Fox News had to pay ($787 million) in compensation because some Fox News hosts had gone nuts pushing the fake news that Donald Trump was beaten at the last election by voting machines that had somehow been rigged.”

Tucker Carlson has never supported the inquiry into voting machine manipulation, and famously confronted attorney Sydney Powell over it. Many Democrat politicans and media voiced grave concern over voting machine manipulation prior to 2020.

Bolt also cited the sexual abuse charges levelled at Carlson by Abby Grossberg, the former Fox News booker who allegedly never worked personally with Carlson, conservative social media influencer Greg Price claimed.

The real reason Carlson was fired was presumably his criticism of the US proxy war in Ukraine and massive corruption, Bolt revealed:

“I’ve had my say about Carlson pushing dangerous and plainly false conspiracy theories that (nervous, indecipherable:) paid in Ukraine was hopelessly corrupt, the Biden team was lies in supporting it (sic) – and all of that propaganda was gold to Russian tyrant Vladmir Putin. Carlson’s claims were repeated endlessly on Russian TV to justify Russia’s brutal invasion of Ukraine. And on that Friday night that he was sacked, Carlson did it all again, despite having pulled his head in as I was assured.

(Shows clip of Carlson criticizing US biolabs and “sensitive nuclear technology” in Ukraine)

“All that, which many viewers would have taken to imply the US was helping Ukraine with secret biological weapons research and maybe nuclear weapons – that is crap! But it’s dangerous crap! Now I believe many Americans just want to cut Ukraine loose and let the Russian dictator have it.”

“Now that last bit is my speculation, it’s not been confirmed. I do know that Lachlan Murdoch and the Ukrainian President have had a warm conversation, and Lachlan Murdoch’s donated to a fund for journalists (in Ukraine).”

“Now you might say, why wasn’t tough action taken earlier, to make all the Fox News hosts sing from the same song sheet. ‘You’re going to say this, and you’re going to say this.’ Like you see at some other organizations, dare I say the New York Times (in the case of) Bari Weiss… Hosts and journalists get a lot of freedom to say what they think” at the Murdoch organization, Bolt said.

But the message is now out”, Bolt said. “If you threaten your station or your newspaper by going a bit nuts, by saying all sorts of wild things that maybe you know is false, or maybe you haven’t bothered to check enough – It doesn’t matter how big you are, you are never bigger than the media organization that made you.”

Fox News shares tanked 5% on Monday.

After Tucker released footage exposing the Jan. 6 Fedsurrection as a sham in March and exponerating the QAnon Shaman Jacob Chansley, who has since been released from prison, Rep. Chuck Shumer called on Rupert Murdoch to “Tell Carlson not to run a second segment” exposing the Democrat lies over Jan. 6.

Speaking to Jen Psaki on MSNBC, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez accused Tucker Carlson of “incitement to violence” and called for the Federal government to ban him, a clear violation of the 1st Amendment of the United States Constitution.

*NEW AD* Abe Hamadeh’s Race Called by 280 Votes – THOUSANDS of Voters Disenfranchised on Election Day, Votes Still Haven’t Been Counted (VIDEO)

A new ad by Arizona’s Bold Era PAC makes the case to count every legal vote from 2022 and for Abe Hamadeh’s Attorney General contest, the closest election in state history, to be overturned.

The ad sends supporters to countthevotesaz.com, where you can get involved and receive updates on Abe’s election lawsuit.

Abe Hamadeh reportedly lost his election by 280 votes, but thousands of ballots heavily favoring Republican voters still have not been counted.

The Gateway Pundit reported yesterday on a newly released video of an Election Day failure in Maricopa County, confirming that Election Day voters were disenfranchised with canceled voter registrations and forced to cast provisional ballots that were never counted.

VIDEO: “Multiple Voter Records Found!” – Maricopa County Voter’s Provisional Ballot Wrongfully NOT COUNTED After Check-In Finds DEAD VOTER (Roughly 8000 Uncounted Ballots Remain in Arizona)

More than 2,500 provisional ballots were rejected in Maricopa County due to voter registration cancellations or polling location check-in failures. These rejected ballots overwhelmingly targeted Republican voters. Thousands more remain across the state.

According to Former Assistant Arizona Attorney General Jen Wright, who is now serving as legal counsel in Abe Hamadeh’s fight against the rigged election, “more than a 1k rejected provisional voters who, despite having voted in ‘18, ‘20, & some even the ‘22 primary, had their voter registration at their primary residence canceled due to erroneous government systems & procedures.”

The Gateway Pundit recently reported that The Mohave County Superior Court ordered Oral Arguments on May 16 in response to Abe Hamadeh’s Motion for New Trial in his lawsuit contesting the closest race in Arizona history.

Hamadeh is simply requesting that the Judge “allow the parties to inspect all ballots that failed to record a vote in the attorney general race (known as an ‘undervote’) in all 15 counties to confirm that the machines properly and appropriately counted every vote in the attorney general race.” Roughly 8,000 provisional ballots remain across the state, and Hamadeh believes they will overturn the election for Attorney General.

Additionally, The Gateway Pundit reported that voting machine failures and tabulation issues led to massive and unprecedented voter disenfranchisement at the polls.

Voting machines and printers suddenly stopped working at nearly 60% of voting centers the moment the polls opened on election day. Republican voters were forced to wait in extremely long lines, turned away from the polls, or told to deposit their ballots in the questionable “box 3” for misread ballots.

Because of this, at Least 517 voters – Nearly DOUBLE the margin of victory In Abe Hamadeh’s Attorney General race – left the long lines in Maricopa County after the polls closed on election day.

No serious person can call this a fair election.

The Gateway Pundit also reported on recent exit polling data from Rasmussen showing that Kari Lake beat Katie Hobbs by eight points. It also revealed that 72% of Republicans, 26% of Democrats, and 47% of independents say it was likely that intentional voter suppression against Republican voters occurred when 59% of machines failed on Election Day. This poll also shows that Kari Lake won by a landslide 8 points against corrupt Democrat Katie Hobbs. Abe Hamadeh also had 49% of votes to Kris Mayes’ 43%, and Mark Finchem, who supposedly lost by 120,000 votes, had 46% of support among all voters to Adrian Fontes’ 43%.

Jen Wright tweeted:

Wright: Of those 8k+, we’ve identified more than a 1k rejected provisional voters who, despite having voted in ‘18, ‘20, & some even the ‘22 primary, had their voter registration at their primary residence canceled due to erroneous government systems & procedures.

Hamadeh tweeted the new ad, saying:

Hamadeh: Did you know there are more than 8,000 votes from the 2022 election that haven’t been counted? The race for Attorney General is separated by only 280 votes. Arizona, I’m still fighting for you and the integrity of our elections. Visit countthevotesaz.com

Watch below:

Did you know there are 1000s of votes from the 2022 election that haven’t been counted? The race for Arizona Attorney General is the closest election in state history, separated by only 280 votes. Abraham Hamadeh is fighting for every legal vote to be counted, so no voter is disenfranchised. Ensuring the candidate who truly received the most votes takes office is vital to restoring faith in our democracy. Learn more at countthevotesaz.com
