This is an unprecedented security agreement between the U.S. and an Arab country.

So Qatar gets NATO Article 5 level protection, but Ukraine does not? This is raw corruption in action.

“Just one more thing. You said the Epstein files were a Democratic hoax—cooked up by Obama, Hillary, and Biden. But here’s the part I can’t figure out: you were a confidential FBI informant on the Epstein case. So tell me, how exactly did the Democrats get you to spy on a hoax?”

RULE ABOUT AMERICAN FLAGS:

If you burn the fabric part, you're looking at jail.

But it you use the pole part to assault a police officer, you get a presidential pardon, praise, and some cash.

I don’t care if Clinton is in the Epstein files. I don’t care if any Democrats are on the client list. I don’t care if any progressives are on the client list... You know why? Because I'm not in a cult. Prosecute them ALL!

So LM get this straight…

Ghislaine Maxwell is in prison for trafficking girls to… nobody?

No client list, even though AG Pam Bondi literally said it was sitting on her desk.

2,000 names in the little black book, but the court sealed it and the media shut up.

The Dems really, really, *really* need to make Miller the face of the administration, the way Musk was until recently. He’s hugely unlikeable and has the potential to create major drag if he is out front and center.

A free lifetime supply of everything to the first journalist who just flat out asks Trump if Stephen Miller is the president.

Imagine if Woodward and Bernstein had been punished for called out Nixon. Imagine if The NY Times did not publish the Pentagon Papers, we would not know anything about continued involvement in Vietnam. Faux News slammed on Joe Biden daily and no one said dick about it! Shame on you ABC News!!!!

I want to report some good news from LA:

ICE picked a hotel in Pasadena to be their headquarters for this side of the city. The residents of Pasadena (myself included) would not stand for this and protested all yesterday in front of the hotel until, eventually, the hotel kicked out ICE!!
