Road To Liberty. (A series)

The White House Salute to America 250 Task Force has partnered with Hillsdale College to provide a history series that tells the remarkable story of American Independence.

It will highlight the stories of the crucial characters and events that resulted in a small rag-tag army defeating the mightiest empire in the world and establishing the greatest republic ever to exist.

This is the story of America. This is our shared heritage and our proud destiny that will continue to lead us to unimaginable achievements in the centuries to come.

But, what will be the impact of No Oil for EU, UK… Whatever those countries create, to export to America… Food? Products America needs for our economy. Prolly lots of alternative sources.

Yea, I have No Idea, what I am talking about.

Is it time to Panic? Or time to Prepare?

Well, “yes and no”. IMHO it is never time to Panic. Even in horrible disasters a clear, focused and calm rational approach works best. Preparation? Ought to have been done years ago, or months, or a couple of weeks back; BUT if you are not prepared, NOW is always the best time. But without panic, please.

I like that Johnny Horton sang some songs about historical events. Sadly, he only lived to be 35. He was killed in a car crash. He and Johnny Cash were good friends.

NEW: Newsmax’s Rob Finnerty left speechless after Rep. Tim Burchett said if people saw what he has seen in relation to aliens, “it would’ve set the Earth on fire.”

Burchett also let viewers know that he is not “su*cidal.”

The comment came while Burchett was responding to Matt Gaetz’s recent suggestion that there was an alien-human breeding program.

“We’re in meetings and they give addresses and locations of… items.”

🛸 👽 🛸 👽 🛸 👽

It seems odd that he says Pres. Trump and the people around him don’t know the questions to ask, and that “a few of us are going to have to get with the president and tell him” what he needs to ask and where he needs to look.

Wolf Moon

Yup.

pgroup2

I think Tim was being deeply sarcastic.

TradeBait2

He was. Hillbilly sarcasm.

TheseTruths

It never occurred to me that a sitting Congressman would say things that are not true during an interview, that would get people all abuzz. Is that what you think he was doing, with a use of sarcasm to make a different point?

Aubergine

I didn’t get that at all. I think Burchett knows stuff he thinks we all should know, but they won’t tell us, and he can’t, because of classification.

And remember, J.D. Vance just told us he “thinks” aliens are demons. What would THAT information cause, if it were true?

The swamp is a lot deeper than he or any of us ever believed. We learn more about that every single day.

Sir ES

It could be termed “aliens” in the sense of chimeric cloning experiments, humans and animals.

Two names I’ve come across are “jar babies” and “greys,” and Antarctica (underground) is so remote and cold that almost no one else but the cabal knows where.

It’s a guess, also a ‘conspiracy theory,’ yet I don’t discount the possibility, given the abominable depravity of these mortifyingly evil deeds we’ve become aware of.

I do NOT believe that other-worldly life exists here on Earth: every technology we encounter, whether ancient or modern, is man-made.

With, of course, the caveat that God created everything in the first place!

It seems that we still have a few more onion peels to go to uncover the odious core!

IMO “telling Congress” (only a limited hangout) and telling THEM to keep secrets (which they can’t) is part of the “gradual disclosure” model that all the parties “in the know” have agreed upon.

Aubergine

I think J.D. Vance’s recent comment that he thinks aliens are demons is part of that.

I think Burchett is correct when he says that if people knew the truth, it would set the world on fire. What will people do when the “unseen realm” is suddenly “seen?” Can you imagine the atheist’s response? Lol, I would love to see it.

Tatonka Woman

I have long thought aliens – the perception or visual of – are actually demons. So I see Vance’s comment simply as a personal viewpoint he chose to express.

Of course, I believe demons are real – because I know angels are real. (long story and many thoughts behind all of that.)

And, must add, that reading all of Frank Peretti’s books only backed up my thoughts. (“fiction” though the books are)

JUST IN: White House Fraud Task Force Uncovers 221 Fraudulent Hospice and Healthcare Providers in California as “Operation Never Say Die” Begins – Trump Responds

The Trump Administration’s fraud task force, led by Vice President JD Vance, revealed on Thursday that it has identified and suspended 221 fraudulent hospice and healthcare providers. 

According to Fox News, the massive progress comes after just 70 providers were initially suspended last week.

But it’s not stopping there.

“We expect this number to grow much, much higher in the coming weeks,” a senior Administration official said…

Yep. And the real trick to avoiding botulism is just to do what grannie did; cook those canned veggies at a boil for quite a while! If there’s any botulism in the green beans, well, cooking them for a few hours with a piece of fatback will kill it, for sure!

Gail Combs

If I recall correctly, 20 minutes at a rolling boil kills most stuff IN the water.

Disinfecting with Heat
the 3 hours is to make sure everything is heated to 100C for the 20 minutes.

You can use lesser heat for longer times also.

Wolf Moon

Yes. A real shame that the regime basically “insists on the right to harass the world” to its own detriment (more so to the detriment of its own people!)

TradeBait2

Make it happen. Do not want any kind of deal with Islamist fascist terroists. Want their deaths only. True Iranians need to take their country back after the electricity goes out. Regular army needs to man up with the citizens and get the job done, otherwise Kharg Island goes up in smoke and they will be SOL for a very long time. Euros need to make the call to the IRGC and tell them their collective game and partnership is over.

Going Old Testament Biblical on this.

The correct pressure from Europe must be applied. The U.S. has to be done with this nonsense of taking care of the whole world. It’s ridiculous.

EACH DAY WE TAKE UP THE OFFENSIVE WEAPON OF THE WORD OF GOD – THE SWORD OF THE SPIRIT – ONE VERSE OPENS THE DOOR TO THE CONTEXT OF THE CHAPTER MESSAGE

Verse of the Day for Saturday, April 4, 2026

“And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.”

Luke 14:27 (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR LUKE 14:27

Christ heals a man on the sabbath. (1-6) He teaches humility. (7-14) Parable of the great supper. (15-24) The necessity of consideration and self-denial. (25-35)

25-35 Though the disciples of Christ are not all crucified, yet they all bear their cross, and must bear it in the way of duty. Jesus bids them count upon it, and then consider of it. Our Saviour explains this by two similitudes; the former showing that we must consider the expenses of our religion; the latter, that we must consider the perils of it. Sit down and count the cost; consider it will cost the mortifying of sin, even the most beloved lusts. The proudest and most daring sinner cannot stand against God, for who knows the power of his anger? It is our interest to seek peace with him, and we need not send to ask conditions of peace, they are offered to us, and are highly to our advantage. In some way a disciple of Christ will be put to the trial. May we seek to be disciples indeed, and be careful not to grow slack in our profession, or afraid of the cross; that we may be the good salt of the earth, to season those around us with the savour of Christ.

Commentary by Matthew Henry, 1710.

WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD

Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.

I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.

I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.

Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.

May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.

With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.

Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me. 

Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.

The problem is that these duplicate photos are referenced in various places, and there is no easy way to modify the old posts to point to the location of a unified image.

I think that is the signal for the Iranians to take out the bad actors. Hopefully they have gotten plenty of weapons and ammo smuggled into them.

scott467

Start impeaching members of the legislature who refuse to impeach the corrupt judges.

They have a reason for not doing what the public obviously supports.

That reason can only be one of (or a combination of) a few things:

1) Bribery

2) Blackmail

3) direct involvement with crime rings

It’s certainly not ideological, not for the Republi-Cons, not even the RINOs.

So begin criminal investigations into every Republi-Con who won’t impeach corrupt judges.

They are obviously getting pressure (bribery, blackmail, direct criminal involvement) from one side.

So long as you apply no pressure from the other side, nothing changes.

Squeeze them.

Not like anyone needs to tell you how to do this Rhonda, you just won’t. Because you’re corrupt too. And I hope you NEVER become President of the United States.

You OR your weird wife.

Three American Aircraft Downed Over Iran

Gail Combs

From Jeff of C&C

Iran could have had a talking point. But they just can’t help themselves. Iran’s state media falsely claimed they’d shot down an F-35— a stealth fighter worth $100 million and three times the headlines. The actual wreckage turned out to be an F-15E. Psyop ruined. They didn’t even know what they shot down.

Separately, an A-10 Warthog also went down in the Persian Gulf yesterday —pilot safely rescued, cause unspecified— and a rescue helicopter was struck during the search-and-rescue operation.

I do not know if those are the aircraft cited in the video.

‘HUNKER DOWN’: Military expert breaks down missing airman’s goal to survive

“…We’re watching all three legs of the Democrats’ fundraising stool be sawn off: USAID, ActBlue, and charity/NGO fraud. Follow the money. The Democrats could be looking not just at a fundraising gap, but at a financial extinction event that would make the dinosaurs nod sympathetically….”

I sure hope Jeff is correct but didn’t some Judge turn USAID back on?

AFGE | Judge Rules DOGE’s Dismantling of USAID Unconstitutional

A federal judge March 18 ruled that Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) violated the Constitution by shutting down the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). 

U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang in Maryland said that Musk and DOGE had no authority to dismantle the agency – as Musk was neither appointed nor confirmed by the Senate – and that they deprived Congress of its “constitutional authority to decide whether, when and how to close down an agency created by Congress.” 

The judge’s preliminary injunction prohibited DOGE from making further cuts to the agency’s staff and contracts and from shutting down buildings, IT systems, and websites. He also ordered DOGE to reinstate access to email, payments, security measures, and other electronic systems for current USAID employees and contractors. 

Musk and DOGE cannot engage “in any actions related to USAID without express authorization of a USAID official with the legal authority to take or approve the action,” the judge said. The lawsuit was filed by USAID employees and contractors.  

Chuang’s ruling is the most recent blow to the Trump administration on USAID. On March 11, a judge ruled Trump overstepped his constitutional authority when he halted almost all spending on foreign aid administered by USAID as part of his plan to abolish the agency. The judge ordered him to pay $2 billion it owed but did not go as far as directing him to revive the cancelled contracts.  

On the same day, AFGE and allies filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration for ordering USAID employees to shred and burn documents. On March 10, AFGE and allies filed a motion for summary judgement to immediately block the Trump administration from shutting down USAID. The group argued that facts are not contested and so a trial is not needed. A recent decision by a judge to allow the Trump administration to put USAID employees on leave was not on the merit of the case but rather jurisdiction – that litigation involving labor issues or federal employment actions should first go before the Federal Labor Relations Authority or the Merit Systems Protection Board.  

USAID was one of the first and biggest targets of the Trump administration, which has proceeded to cut 83% of its contracts and moved the agency under the State Department. 

AND WHO THOSE FUCKERS ARE!!

AFGE at a Glance

AFGE proudly represents 820,000 federal and D.C. government workers across the United States and the world. Members of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) can be found in almost every federal agency and every function of government. We work for America. [BULL SHIT!]

Who We Are

AFGE represents over 820,000 workers in nearly every agency of the federal and D.C. governments, spread across over 900 local unions.

Our members are nurses, correctional officers, doctors, Social Security professionals, TSA agents, law enforcement officers, park rangers, and so much more. While we represent almost every type of federal employee, the agencies with the highest memberships are the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Social Security Administration, the Department of Defense, and the Department of Homeland Security.

Together, we fight for dignity, safety, and fairness on the job so government can more effectively serve the American people.

Interesting comment over at AlphaWarrior’s

Carney is the Bank of London person slotted into the Canadian Premier’s spot

PatriotMatt47
14 hours ago

Whistleblowers are stepping forward, accusing Carney of being on Epstein’s Island, not as a guest, but as a predator. They claim flight logs and private communications place him there during key time frames. These allegations are explosive — yet mainstream media refuses to report. The silence is not ignorance — it’s deliberate protection.

Carney’s ties to the World Economic Forum, UN, and global finance elites aren’t just concerning — they’re a blueprint for technocratic domination. He’s not leading Canada — he’s managing its controlled decline for the benefit of those who pull the strings.

The public is demanding answers. MPs are under pressure. Whistleblowers are risking it all. But no statement from Carney. No investigation. No coverage. That’s not oversight — that’s a cover-up.

They thought we’d stay asleep. They thought we’d stay silent. But the truth is out.

This isn’t about one man — it’s about a system of corruption so deep, so vile, it’s now exposed for all to see…

I think some of this depends on what people are looking for when reading these blogs written by physicians. For example, Dr. Peter A. McCullough’s blog (https://www.thefocalpoints.com/) has “morphed” into different directions, including advertising his company’s product lines for treatment / prophylasix (The Wellness Company.) He undoubtedly has deep knowledge of his own subject material. On the other hand, his blog also has multiple articles by John Leake about the current Iran war situation (Leake is against it.)
Another example: A Midwestern Doctor’s blog (https://www.midwesterndoctor.com/) has multiple article on DMSO and what it can do. He, also undoubtedly, has deep knowledge of his own subject material. His articles on the dangers of antidepressants (and psychotropic drugs in general) are incredible.

TheseTruths

I did a search and found this article on “Science-Based Medicine” by Dr. David Gorski, who thinks there is no such thing as turbo cancer and that both Dr. Makis and A Midwestern Doctor (“AMD”) are quacks. You can see some info about their disagreements if you can wade through the snark.

https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/no-turbo-cancer-at-asco-how-about-a-quack-fight-instead/

An abbreviated summary by me that might not fully represent what they think:
•The late Scott Adams tried the products that Dr. Makis promotes, the fenben-IVM+ (my abbreviated term) ones, and said he was not helped by them.
•Dr. Makis then claimed that Adams didn’t complete the protocol. “Scott didn’t try Ivermectin and Fenbendazole in any proper shape or form and we will never know if it would have worked for him or not.”
•Dr. Gorski says AMD likes DMSO as a cure for cancer. AMD made a mild criticism of the fenben-IVM+ protocols, and Dr. Makis strongly objects to that. Some of what AMD said is at the site. It ends with this:

Because of this, I feel that this protocol [fenben-IVM+] is something worth trying as it relatively safe, very affordable and accessible, and has a small chance of making a dramatic improvement that spares you from the nightmare of going through chemo and radiation therapy (hence making it dramatically better than most of the conventional options). However, I also believe the rampant use of miraculous testimonials to promote it (rather than consecutive cases or trials that also show the treatment failures) has created a massive inflation of its efficacy and individuals choosing to eschew other treatments who then either die or lose much of their faith in unconventional treatments.

Note: the only dataset I’ve come across where some aspect of this protocol has a high rate of success has been from people using topical ivermectin in conjunction with DMSO (discussed further here)….

•Makis criticized AMD for supporting Casey Means for surgeon general.

Conclusion: Makis is pushing the fenben-IVM+ protocol, while AMD pushes DMSO. AMD has not had success with the fenben-IVM+ protocol and therefore doesn’t promote it, and Makis is upset about that.

Patients are not served by this bickering.

YW. I think both doctors have a lot to offer but as usual, the patient has to be heavily involved in wading through information and deciding what is best to try at various stages.

For cancer it is Fenben PLUS DOUBLED VITAMINS!!!
They did just fenben in another ‘study’ and had no luck with the fenben. (see second paper)

Unexpected Antitumorigenic Effect of Fenbendazole 👉when Combined with Supplementary Vitamins👈

Abstract

Diet containing the anthelminthic fenbendazole is used often to treat rodent pinworm infections because it is easy to use and has few reported adverse effects on research. However, during fenbendazole treatment at our institution, an established human lymphoma xenograft model in C.B-17/Icr-prkdcscid/Crl (SCID) mice failed to grow. Further investigation revealed that the fenbendazole had been incorporated into a sterilizable diet supplemented with additional vitamins to compensate for loss during autoclaving, but the diet had not been autoclaved. To assess the role of fenbendazole and supplementary vitamins on tumor suppression, 20 vendor-supplied 4-wk-old SCID mice were assigned to 4 treatment groups: standard diet, diet plus fenbendazole, diet plus vitamins, and diet plus both vitamins and fenbendazole. Diet treatment was initiated 2 wk before subcutaneous flank implantation with 3 × 107 lymphoma cells. Tumor size was measured by caliper at 4-d intervals until the largest tumors reached a calculated volume of 1500 mm3. Neither diet supplemented with vitamins alone nor fenbendazole alone caused altered tumor growth as compared with that of controls. However, the group supplemented with both vitamins and fenbendazole exhibited significant inhibition of tumor growth. The mechanism for this synergy is unknown and deserves further investigation. Fenbendazole should be used with caution during tumor studies because it may interact with other treatments and confound research results.

Fenbendazole as a Potential Anticancer Drug

This is a CLASSIC example of how the Cabal ‘Proves’ a drug does not work. The first paper makes it clear that it is Fenbendazole PLUS DOUBLED VITAMINS, a synergistic effect, that targeted cancer and not Feneben alone. So what do they do? they look at “…fenbendazole as a single agent and in combination regimens…[with] radiation or docetaxel…” NOT A VITAMIN IN SIGHT!

Conclusion

These studies provided no evidence that fenbendazole would have value in cancer therapy, but suggested that this general class of compounds merits further investigation.

This is such a simple but classic example of how the Cabal’s Psy Op works, I could not resist documenting it.

I asked GROK about actions that PTrump might take in Iran that could put pressure on the Mullah’s but not overly burden the general populace. This is GROK’s response –

Leverage in Iran

Trump has several targeted, primarily non-kinetic options to pressure Iran’s clerical leadership (the Supreme Leader’s office, IRGC commanders, and associated hardliners) to erode their grip on power while minimizing direct economic or humanitarian harm to ordinary Iranians. These build on tools presidents already use—executive sanctions under laws like IEEPA, information operations, and diplomacy—without the broad oil/banking embargoes of the first-term “maximum pressure” campaign, which studies showed hurt the middle class, medicine access, and daily life.
The core challenge is real: the regime has survived decades of pressure through repression, patronage networks, and control of key institutions (IRGC, Basij militias, bonyad foundations). Forcing outright relinquishment of power typically requires an internal tipping point (protests, defections, elite fractures), which external actions can accelerate but not guarantee without risking escalation or backlash. These options focus on starving the regime’s tools of control while empowering Iranians—directly addressing the concerns about not burdening the general population. They are specific, executable via executive action, and draw from expert analyses and ongoing U.S. Treasury/OFAC practices as of 2026.

1. Hyper-Targeted Sanctions on Regime Elites, IRGC Economic Empire, and Personal/Offshore Assets

  • Focus on the Supreme Leader’s Setad (Execution of Imam Khomeini’s Order), IRGC’s Khatam al-Anbiya conglomerate, and bonyads (e.g., Mostazafan Foundation, Astan Quds Razavi). These control huge swaths of the economy (construction, oil, telecoms, imports) and funnel revenue into repression, proxies, and elite enrichment—not broad civilian needs. Sanction their international facilitators, enablers in third countries (Turkey, UAE, China), and shadow fleet tankers smuggling oil (which directly funds IRGC ballistic missiles, drones, and internal security forces).
  • Add personal asset freezes on mullahs, IRGC commanders, and families: Target overseas bank accounts, properties, and crypto holdings of top figures (e.g., via expanded designations under existing EOs like 13553 for human rights abuses). This hits the corrupt patronage system that keeps hardliners loyal.
  • Why effective and low burden on populace? It disrupts the regime’s ability to pay militias, buy loyalty, and fund proxies without blanket restrictions on Iranian civilian imports/exports or humanitarian trade. Treasury has already expanded this in 2025–2026 (e.g., shadow fleet vessels, procurement networks for missiles). Pair with explicit general licenses for food/medicine to avoid spillover. Past broad sanctions strengthened IRGC monopolies; this undercuts them surgically.
  • Trump lever: Expand via new OFAC actions and secondary sanctions only on regime-tied entities (not general trade). Signal publicly: “Sanctions end the day the mullahs step aside.”

2. Aggressive Support for Uncensored Information, Internet Access, and Internal Dissent

  • Provide and fund anti-censorship tools: Expand access to Starlink terminals, VPNs, circumvention software, and direct-to-cell tech for Iranians. Fund NGOs and U.S. broadcasting (e.g., Voice of America Persian, Radio Farda) to deliver unfiltered news, expose elite corruption, and highlight regime failures. Amplify diaspora voices and opposition figures (e.g., Reza Pahlavi’s calls for secular democracy) via social media and targeted campaigns.
  • Psychological/information operations: Run campaigns (overt and covert) showing how regime revenue goes to palaces/proxies while people suffer—encouraging defections among military/police and protests. Offer quiet incentives (asylum, rewards) for whistleblowers or officials who abandon the regime.
  • Why effective and low burden? This empowers Iranians to organize peacefully and build pressure from within (as seen in past waves like 2022–2026 protests), without economic pain. It counters regime internet blackouts and propaganda directly. Experts note this, combined with economic squeezes on elites, raises odds of internal fracture far more than military strikes alone.

3. Diplomatic Isolation, Legitimacy Denial, and Defection Incentives

  • Reduce formal recognition and rally allies: Downgrade diplomatic ties to consular level where possible, push UN Human Rights Council resolutions condemning repression, and coordinate with Europe/Gulf states for parallel measures against regime figures (not civilians). Publicly endorse a “free Iran” transition framework (e.g., free elections, end to theocratic veto power) without picking one exile leader prematurely.
  • Carrot-and-stick signaling: Quietly message regime insiders that personal sanctions lift and Iran gets normalized relations/investment if they facilitate power handover to a representative government. Offer humanitarian/economic relief packages explicitly tied to verifiable steps (e.g., releasing political prisoners, ending morality police).
  • Why effective? The regime’s legitimacy is already shaky domestically; denying it internationally and offering exit ramps to mid-level officials can accelerate elite defections. This worked in other authoritarian collapses and avoids the civilian costs of war or broad sanctions.

These are the most practical, scalable levers available without large-scale military involvement (which risks civilian casualties and regime rally-’round-the-flag effects) or economy-wide sanctions. Trump has already used elements of them in his second term via NSPM-2 and Treasury actions. Success depends on persistence and an internal spark— the mullahs are tenacious, as you note—but history shows regimes crack when their money, information control, and elite cohesion erode simultaneously.
No option is foolproof or quick; Iran isn’t a color-revolution pushover. But these avoid the pitfalls of broad pressure that the regime exploits to portray itself as a victim of “foreign aggression” while ordinary people bear the cost. They align with Trump’s stated preference for deals over endless wars, while keeping the focus on the oppressors, not the Iranian people.

RedLegLeader68

Yep

TheseTruths

Europe is all about globalism, holding hands, and kumbaya. They hate that Pres. Trump sees a need for America to be strong and more self-sufficient (but not isolationist). I think he is teaching them the need for more self-sufficiency. Global dependence doesn’t work when one or more parties turn their backs on you or if they are constrained by war from producing the same amount of supplies as usual.

Japan Approves the World’s First Treatment Made With Reprogrammed Human Cells 

Researchers in Japan pioneered reprogrammed cells 20 years ago. Now the country has given the first ever authorizations to manufacture and sell medical products based on the technology.

Big Breakthroughs Coming
Apr 4, 2026

“Scientists in Japan can now turn regular cells into “blank” cells and grow new body parts from them. Japan just approved the first real treatments using this tech—for heart failure and Parkinson’s.

They are now approved to start repairing damaged organs with lab-grown cells. This could eventually help with aging (since aging = body parts breaking down)… but right now, it’s only for serious diseases and still early-stage.

DETAILS
What are “reprogrammed human cells”? About 20 years ago, Japanese scientist Shinya Yamanaka (who later won a Nobel Prize) figured out how to take ordinary adult cells—like skin or blood cells from a donor—and “reset” them using a few genes. This turns them into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells).

Think of them as blank-slate cells that can be turned into almost any cell type in the body (heart muscle, brain cells, etc.). It’s a safer, ethical alternative to using cells from embryos. Japan has been the world leader in this tech.”

EXPOSED: They Admit Deindustrialization Was Intentional — Liberation Day Proves It

One year after Liberation Day, the results are in — and they’re exactly what President Trump promised. Susan Kokinda breaks down the blowout March jobs report (178,000 new jobs vs. 60,000 expected), the 55% drop in the trade deficit, and the hard manufacturing data showing American industry is expanding for the first time in decades, proving that Trump’s break from the British free trade system is working.

She then turns to the strategic front, where neocon architect Robert Kagan inadvertently confessed in The Atlantic that eighty years of American wars in the Middle East were never about our security — they were about enforcing the “liberal world order” — and where Trump’s questioning of NATO membership is cracking the imperial architecture wide open.

From China’s view of Trump as the “least hawkish person in Washington” to Putin’s economic diplomacy with Egypt, a new world of sovereign nations making sovereign deals is emerging in real time. What the establishment calls “going rogue,” Kokinda argues, is simply what independence looks like — and with midterms less than nine months away, the fight to secure it is just beginning.

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f6a8.svgJ6 Video You’ve Never Seenhttps://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f6a8.svg

The much-feared media company-killing law firm, Clare Locke, that represents former @CapitolPolice
officer and current @CIA
asset Shauni Kerkhoff — (Oh, let’s be real … they represent the CIA) — sent a demand/preservation letter to @theblaze
, me, and @HanneReports
. Basically, a threat of a defamation lawsuit. In that letter, they stated:

“Blaze Media’s analysis was also factually flawed. Ms. Kerkhoff’s 2015 soccer injury did not give her a ‘slight limp’ from which any reasonable ‘analyst’ could link her to the bombing suspect. Ms. Kerkhoff has fully recovered from her injury. In the interim, she has run multiple marathons.”

Given that Clare Locke has dedicated resources to monitoring every word we write and every one of our media appearances, they must know we have hours of video of Ms. Kerkhoff’s unusual “circumduction gait.” (A kind of limp.) Hours of video we’ve harvested from Capitol CCTV of her as a Capitol Police officer on January 5 and 6, 2021, and from her short professional soccer career. Almost all of which is readily available to any member of the public, press, or one of the law firm’s taxpayer-funded paralegals. (Routed through some dark money conduit, foundation, or NGO. Kerkhoff cannot afford an $1,800 per hour law firm, well-known for not taking defamation cases on contingency.)

Is Clare Locke incompetently representing their client, Ms. Kerkhoff (er … CIA) — by that easily disproved assertion — or were they just trying to scare The Blaze into a quick settlement before their client would have to face the harsh reality of trial discovery?

As for Ms. Kerkhoff being a marathon runner, we already knew that. Despite their best efforts to scrub her former internet history, we’d already captured many photos of her participation in marathon events from deep web scrapes. The most interesting little nugget about that is:

The until-recently Congressional Liaison to The FBI, Marshall Yates, once told me — while reviewing video of the J6 pipe bomber in the office of his former employer, @RepThomasMassie
— “We need to be looking for a marathon runner.” Why? Because of distinct physical traits that are characteristic of marathon runners and exhibited by the bomber while on that 44-minute trek around the DNC and RNC on the night of J5. (More on that, later.)

Clare Locke says, “No limp.” Video evidence says otherwise.

Joe and I launch our new endeavor on Monday — free of corporate media censorship — where we’ll finally be able to tell the whole story and show you the videos @FBI
never wanted you to see.

I asked GROK: With respect to gasoline, it is claimed “The higher the ethanol content, the lower the price. Biofuels save money.” But when taking the loss of mileage into account, does ethanol really save the consumer money? Also, aren’t there tax incentives and other government money that helps subsidize ethanol? So, some money “saved” for the individual consumer also ends up being taken from that consumer in the form of tax dollars.

Ethanol Saves Money???

GROK Sez –
No, ethanol in gasoline does not reliably save the average consumer money once you account for the mileage (MPG) penalty—and the subsidies make the “savings” even more illusory for taxpayers. The claim that “higher ethanol content = lower price, so biofuels save money” is technically true at the pump per gallon, but it falls apart when you measure cost per mile driven. Subsidies and mandates further complicate it: part of the lower pump price comes from your tax dollars.
Mileage Loss from Ethanol’s Lower Energy Content
Ethanol has about 33% less energy per gallon than pure gasoline (roughly 76,000 BTU/gal vs. 114,000 BTU/gal). This directly reduces fuel economy:

  • E10 (the standard blend in most U.S. gasoline): ~3% lower MPG than ethanol-free gasoline (E0).
  • E15 (increasingly available and being promoted in 2026): Roughly 1.5–2% less energy than E10 (or ~4–5% vs. E0 in some tests), so expect a similar MPG drop.
  • E85 (for flex-fuel vehicles only): 20–30% lower MPG (often ~25–27% in real-world use).

Real-world tests confirm this penalty adds up—e.g., you may notice 1 MPG less in a 30-MPG car on E10, or far more on E85.

Price per Gallon vs. Price per Mile
Higher ethanol blends are cheaper per gallon (thanks to ethanol’s lower production/refining cost + policy support):

  • Recent national averages (as of early 2026): E10 ~$3.51–$3.54/gal; E15 ~$3.22–$3.26/gal (10–30¢ cheaper); E85 ~$2.62–$2.63/gal (often $0.80–$1+ cheaper than E10 in the Midwest); ethanol-free E0 ~$4.47/gal where available.

However, cost per mile is what matters:

  • E10 vs. E0: The ~3% MPG loss is usually more than offset by the price discount (E0 often costs 20–50¢+ more per gallon). Personal tests and analyses show E10 often delivers better miles per dollar.
  • E15 vs. E10: The typical 10–30¢/gal discount often covers (or slightly exceeds) the extra ~2% MPG loss, yielding small net savings per mile in many cases. Industry groups highlight this; critics note the gap narrows when demand rises.
  • E85 vs. E10/gasoline: Needs E85 to be ~20–25% cheaper per gallon to break even on cost per mile. This frequently happens in the Midwest corn belt for flex-fuel vehicles, delivering real per-mile savings. Elsewhere, it often costs the same or more per mile.

Industry-funded studies claim ethanol (especially E10/E15) lowers overall U.S. gasoline prices by 22–77¢/gallon equivalent via octane value and supply effects, equating to $20–50+ billion in annual driver “savings.” Independent analyses and real-world tests are more mixed—savings exist at the pump for typical blends but are small after MPG adjustment, and E85 savings are location/vehicle-dependent.
The Subsidy/Taxpayer Angle
Yes—much of the lower pump price is enabled by government policy, so you’re partly paying for the “savings” via taxes:

  • The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) mandates blending volumes, creating demand and compliance credits (RINs) that effectively subsidize producers.
  • The 45Z Clean Fuel Production Tax Credit (extended/amended through at least 2029) offers up to $1/gallon for qualifying biofuels (including conventional corn ethanol under recent changes). It is projected to cost taxpayers $25–53 billion over the decade.
  • Earlier blender credits (e.g., VEETC at 45–51¢/gallon) cost billions annually before expiring; infrastructure grants and other supports add hundreds of millions more.

These policies lower ethanol’s effective cost, which flows through to cheaper E10/E15/E85 at the pump. But as a taxpayer, you help fund them (plus indirect costs like higher corn/food prices). Net societal benefit is debated—some studies say the RFS distorts markets without proportional environmental gains.
Bottom line: For the typical driver on E10 or occasional E15, you might break even or see minor per-mile savings versus pure gasoline, especially in high-price periods. E85 can save real money if you’re in the right region with a compatible vehicle. However, the MPG penalty means you’re not getting a free lunch, and subsidies mean the “savings” are partly a transfer from your taxes to corn farmers, ethanol producers, and blenders. Pure market forces would likely make higher-ethanol blends less attractive without mandates and credits. If fuel economy is your priority, ethanol-free gas (where available) or efficient driving/vehicles beat the blends in many cases. Prices and policies fluctuate, so check local E85prices.com or fuel economy.gov for your situation.

Yes, clearly the answer depends on how deeply one looks for the “costs” of using ethanol!

The pilot sustained injuries but the president said he will be “just fine.”

Full statement from President Trump:

WE GOT HIM! My fellow Americans, over the past several hours, the United States Military pulled off one of the most daring Search and Rescue Operations in U.S. History, for one of our incredible Crew Member Officers, who also happens to be a highly respected Colonel, and who I am thrilled to let you know is now SAFE and SOUND!

This brave Warrior was behind enemy lines in the treacherous mountains of Iran, being hunted down by our enemies, who were getting closer and closer by the hour, but was never truly alone because his Commander in Chief, Secretary of War, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and fellow Warfighters were monitoring his location 24 hours a day, and diligently planning for his rescue. 

At my direction, the U.S. Military sent dozens of aircraft, armed with the most lethal weapons in the World, to retrieve him. He sustained injuries, but he will be just fine. 
This miraculous Search and Rescue Operation comes in addition to a successful rescue of another brave Pilot, yesterday, which we did not confirm, because we did not want to jeopardize our second rescue operation. This is the first time in military memory that two U.S. Pilots have been rescued, separately, deep in Enemy Territory.

WE WILL NEVER LEAVE AN AMERICAN WARFIGHTER BEHIND! The fact that we were able to pull off both of these operations, without a SINGLE American killed, or even wounded, just proves once again, that we have achieved overwhelming Air Dominance and Superiority over the Iranian skies. 

This is a moment that ALL Americans, Republican, Democrat, and everyone else, should be proud of and united around. We truly have the best, most professional, and lethal Military in the History of the World. GOD BLESS AMERICA, GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS, AND HAPPY EASTER TO ALL!

King Charles just got caught in 4K…

Buckingham Palace confirms King Charles will not issue an Easter message this year, while his previous comments resurfaced..
.

TheseTruths

I’m a little stunned that a guy (the narrator) who is complaining about King Charles not recognizing Easter would use the incredibly offensive and blasphemous (IMO) expression “Oh my f_____g ___.” That was literally shocking to me.

cthulhu

I keep hoping that it’s only actually blasphemous in Hebrew.

scott467

Yes, and unfortunately Asmongold f-bombs a lot.

I had not seen the video footage of Mullah Charlie prostrating himself to islam so thoroughly before.

If that wasn’t a full endorsement of islam, I don’t know what else to call it.

And that was YEARS ago. I think they said 1993.
