A delicious creamy soup made with fresh fish that is fighting really hard to stop an international right wing conspiracy to install a fascist dictatorship in the U.S.A.

Cato has an ideology, but they study the data rather objectively and do very high quality research.

Cato is a reliable source of info.

And yes, "libertarians" and "true conservatives" should respect their work and not dismiss it as fake news or liberal media bias.

The Cato Inst. is a somewhat right leaning "libertarian" think tank founded inspired by Ayn Rand. They are listed on the Heritage Foundation website as an affiliated group.

Yet, they do excellent research & are generally a reliable info source. I recommend their research on immigration.

Trump’s Claims About Noncitizens Voting Are False. We Can Prove It. A number of states have undertaken investigations into noncitizen voting, cross-checking voter rolls with citizenship status, and found it virtually nonexistent.

Also recall that Epstein got his start working for a covert action known as the "October Surprise."

This network illegally armed Iran, Hezbollah, Al Qaeda and other similar factions attacking Americans from 1980 to 87.

This network made Epstein above the law.

Senator calls for DEA to provide info on "incredibly disturbing" Epstein drug investigation Federal drug enforcement investigators targeted Jeffrey Epstein and 14 others in a yearslong probe first reported by CBS News.

This is a big one. A newly uncovered document has revealed the existence of a mystery Epstein investigation. It was spearheaded by the DEA and involved drug trafficking and money laundering. Epstein was one of 15 targets. The other 14 names are redacted. I've got questions.

So... the lesson here is...?

Don't come with data requests from DHS without a warrant?

That's worth $427 trillion. When do I get MY check for $10 billion?

Well, if Trump is suing for $10 billion because of leaked info from the IRS, that means the government is on the hook for about $427 trillion here β€” more than its total budget over U.S. history. Oh well!

So many people who have worked at the Times are in the Epstein files.

David Brooks, Joi Ito, Larry Summers...

I recall how they "debunked" Gary Webb's journalism that exposed CIA cocaine smuggling.

CIA contractor, Southern Air Transport (SAT), was caught by customs TWICE.

Epstein worked for SAT.

Yes, it is what Israel wants.

No, it won't come easy. Gaza was small and defenseless.

Iran is much stronger than Iraq was.

It's more likely that sooner or later, someone will sneak a nuke into Israel and then IT will be destroyed like Gaza. So many enemies.

As established in the exhaustively sourced 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption (Macmillan), Kash Patelβ€”who everyone forgets is a Trump personal lawyer (via the classified docs case)β€”was a key part of the secret "BLT Prime" team in 2019-20.

Its goal? Work with the Kremlin to steal the 2020 election.

Yes. The Navy can block signals, but... as we saw in Ukraine, the drones can run on mile long fiber optic lines that are thin like fishing line. The drones would look like fish on sonar.

Iran sent a swarm of drones to attack Israel. Israel had cutting edge defenses, but some of them got through.

MAHA mom: When Republicans voted for Section 453, which was the pesticide immunity shield, what I was seeing in the group chats was, 'I guess I'm a Democrat now.' There are a lot of people who are very, upset about what the Republicans are doing.

Charlie Kirk repeatedly pushed the white supremacist Great Replacement Theory and regularly made racist comments in his public statements.

If we can't call someone so explicitly racist "a racist" without getting fired, who else is off limits?

Donald Trump? Nick Fuentes? David Duke?

And Putin will give weapons to Iran just like he did for Iraq during the last war.

With all the new drone tech, it could turn into our own Ukraine. We might see how well cheap drones can be used to take out expensive hardware.

Carriers are very vulnerable.
