Dear KMAG: 20260504 Trump Won Three Times ❀ Open Topic


Joe Biden never won. This is our Real President – 45, 46, 47.

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And yes, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will always remember Wheatie,

Pray for Trump,

Yet have fun,

and HOLD ON when things get crazy!


We will follow the RULES of civility that Wheatie left for us:

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

And while we engage in vigorous free speech, we will remember Wheatie’s advice on civility, non-violence, and site unity:

“We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

“Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

If this site gets shut down, please remember various ways to get back in touch with the rest of the gang:

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Week:

Linguistically, there are two kinds of “we”. We inclusive (you, me, possibly others) and we exclusive (me and others but not you). Many languages have separate terms for those two “we”s but in English we make do with just one. I have long realized that “our democracy” means the exclusive we. Ours (we marxists) but not yours (you ordinary Americans).

‘Bluesky Goes Full Panic’ After Fired Trump Official’s Anti-ICE Website Doxxes Almost 18,000 Leftists

Nearly 18,000 left-wing activists on BlueSky are in panic mode this weekend after an anti-ICE activist website launched by a fired Trump official exposed their personal details due to a vulnerable connection (an unprotected API).

The website – “GTFO ICE” – was created by former DHS Chief of Staff and Google security executive, Miles Taylor, as a rapid response network that allows people to sign up for alerts about proposed ICE facilities in their areaHRR reports. Taylor, who launched the site in partnership with Project Salt Box, appeared last week on The Rachel Maddow show to announce their “rapid response network to stop ICE prison camps before they start.” 

The breach exposed sign-up records, may have been forwarded to federal investigators…

NEW STUDY: Intranasal Nano-Ivermectin Shrinks Brain Tumors by 70% without toxcity.
By Nicolas Hulscher, MPH

groundbreaking preclinical study published in ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering has revealed that nano-formulated ivermectin delivered intranasally reduced glioblastoma tumor size by 70% — at a dose lower than the approved human antiparasitic dose — all without a trace of toxicity in the brain, blood, or lungs.

Glioblastoma is one of the deadliest and most treatment-resistant cancers on Earth, with median survival under 15 months. The blood–brain barrier blocks most drugs from reaching the tumor.

Researchers from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil) engineered ivermectin nanocapsules (IVM-NC) using biodegradable, biocompatible polymers commonly employed in dissolvable sutures and medical implants, and administered them intranasally to rats bearing brain tumors.

A neighbor and then my Dad died from this.

At this time numerous emergency crews are responding to a mass shooting at a campground with dozens of people injured

#Edmond | #Oklahoma

At this time, numerous emergency crews are rushing to the scene of a reported mass shooting at a campground in Edmond, Oklahoma. Multiple people have been injured after shots were fired, with officials confirming that at least 15 individuals have been reported shot with many of them transported to nearby hospitals. The suspect’s status remains unknown at this time, and it is unclear if anyone has been taken into custody. A witness report indicates more than three individuals were seen fleeing into nearby woods. Authorities are actively securing the area as the situation continues to unfold, and more information is expected as this remains a developing incident.

I believe we are at the end of a Fourth Turning myself.

I think the meltdown in 2008, the Obama presidency, and the leftist craziness of BLM, trans-idiocy, the Covid nightmare and the DEI debacle were the symptoms. Sometimes a turning is because of world war, but this one was a cluster of insane occurrences that started with the election of a non-citizen Marxist.

There’s been a vibe-shift, most people feel it, and I think we have come out the other side,

Matthew 6:24 “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”

The principle applies to the below as most, if not all, agree on here.

America is under the direction and control via Godly providence per its founding. The above scripture is in context when applied as a principle of citizenship.

That we have so many in Congress with dual citizenship is just another Q proof of infiltration and obvious subversion of our nation by enemies of state. .

No confirmation. USG has denied.

  • Slow Guy guesstimate is either.
  1. 100% IRGC fabrication – nothing launched at USN.
  2. Missiles, some ordnance launched at USN. Missed.

No doubt in my mind, “Project Freedom” to transit International Waterway, WILL get IRGC response.

  • IRGC can NOT afford to lose it’s grip on Strait of Hormuz shutdown.

BREAKING: IRGC launch
missiles at US warship near Strait of Hormuz

Ceasefire broken. We will shortly go live on Tousi TV with ongoing coverage.

Al Jazeera has reported this just now as well.

kalbokalbs

Seems #2 above, reality. Missile(s) launched AND missed.

Slow Guy figures CENTCOM will FORCE Strait of Hormuz opening.

  • IRGC has done FA.
  • FO will commence soon. Very soon.

JUST IN: CENTCOM confirms Iran has NOT successfully struck ANY Navy ships this morning, despite claiming they’ve done so

President Trump’s Project Freedom is officially BEGINNING in the Strait of Hormuz and Iran is FLAILING!

Iran better realize what happens if they start firing on US forces!

Any military response becomes defensive, as this is a ceasefire + humanitarian mission

47 has all the cards

patfrederick

47 has already stated that Iran Navy’s is at the bottom of the ocean.

kalbokalbs

“Navy” wise I’d agree. Either bottom of the ocean OR heavily damaged pier-side. Latter can’t be repaired anytime soon. Months to year(s).

PROBLEMS are twofold.

Shore based missiles.

Grok
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Navy (IRGCN) operates a large “mosquito fleet” of small, fast boats (often speedboats or fast attack craft/FAICs) optimized for asymmetric swarming tactics in the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz.

Exact numbers are classified and uncertain due to the boats’ small size, concealment in coastal caves/bases, ease of production, and ongoing deliveries/losses. Estimates generally range from hundreds to several thousand operational vessels.

Key Details from Sources

  • Pre-2026 conflict estimates: Often cited as more than 1,000 (e.g., older U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence assessments) up to hundreds or thousands. Some reports mention figures like 3,000–5,000 in broader contexts, though these may include civilian-adaptable or smaller support craft.
  • IRGCN deliveries: Iran has regularly commissioned hundreds at a time. Examples include 110 combat speedboats in one 2021 ceremony (the seventh such batch) and 112 in another event, plus batches of 340+ in other years. These are typically high-speed (up to 75–90+ knots in newer models), armed with machine guns, rockets, missiles, or torpedoes.
  • Tactics and role: Designed for hit-and-run swarms (often 10–40+ boats from multiple directions), harassment of larger ships, and operations in confined waters. They are cheap, agile, numerous, and hard to track on radar/satellite.

General Characteristics

  • Most are under 15–20 meters long and displace under 20 tons (many far lighter).
  • They feature shallow drafts (often under 1 meter) for operating in coastal/shallow waters and hiding in caves or nearshore areas.
  • Hulls are often monohull or catamaran for stability at high speeds; some claim stealth/radar-evading features.
  • Propulsion: Multiple high-power outboard or diesel engines for rapid acceleration and top speeds of 40–90+ knots (with extreme claims over 100 knots for newest models).

Recent conflicts (as of 2026 reporting) have likely reduced numbers through strikes, with claims of roughly half the fast-attack boat fleet destroyed in some assessments, though many remain hidden and operational.

Slow Guy figures, the Closing paragraphs define the current problem.

Gail Combs

I saw a comment about Satellites so sensitive they can detect a heartbeat during the pilots rescue. IIRC they are sensitive enough to be able to read a licence plate. I have seen satellite images that showed my sheep and goats as well as cars.

Given that info, I think the US military knows how many and where those ships are. The question is do we have enough drones to take them all out? AND do we want to.

cthulhu

I suspect that this is a better task for a Warthog.

Gail Combs

How about both?

From Brave AI

The Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II [The Warthog] is a manned close air support (CAS) attack aircraft, not a drone, though it is currently being adapted to operate in conjunction with unmanned systems. 

  • Current Role: The A-10 serves as a manned platform equipped with the 30 mm GAU-8 Avenger cannon, designed for durability and low-altitude ground attack. 
  • Drone Interception: Modernized A-10Cs are actively used as drone hunters in the Middle East, shooting down Iranian-made Shahed-136 drones using laser-guided 2.75-inch rockets (Precision Kill Weapon System II). 
  • Future Integration: Proposals suggest pairing the A-10 with unmanned combat aerial systems (UCAS) like the Kratos XQ-58A Valkyrie. 
  •  In this “loyal wingman” configuration, drones would suppress enemy air defenses or swarm enemy positions, allowing the A-10 to focus on primary targets.
  • Command and Control: The A-10 can act as a command-and-control hub for drone swarms, directing strikes via datalinks in coordination with ground controllers, a capability tested by DARPA’s Persistent Close Air Support (PCAS) program.

Yup, Space Force/AI related. The blockade gives them time to spot movements, patterns, etc. while starving them out of cash, fuel, supplies, etc.

What I can find via Yandex

Homepage – Teal Drones

Teal Drones leads the way in sUAS innovation, providing cutting-edge solutions to the U.S. military and its allies. … Teal solutions are a combination of powerful hardware and software designed, developed, and produced in the USA.

Teal’s defense and security drones offer a low-cost, portable solution designed for rapid deployment in any terrain. Built for field repairability and recoverability, they ensure mission continuity and minimal downtime. Equipped for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) missions, they provide real-time data and enhanced operational awareness.

So they are Recon drones.

This has a lot more info but would not have anything in the secret area.

New Drones Are Being Developed By The U.S. Army

Meet The New Military Drones Being Integrated Into U.S. Army Companies & Battalions.

…the technology is constantly evolving. In the U.S. military, drones were initially quite large; aircraft like the MQ-1 Predator and the much larger MQ-9 Reaper are full-size aircraft, while the RQ-4 Global Hawk is quite massive.

Those are theater-level assets, serving entire warzones, but they aren’t the only drones operating for the U.S. Smaller drones like the RQ-7 Shadow and others have been used by smaller units, and innovation along those lines continues. 

The newest successor to the original Predator deployed by US forces, the Predator C Avenger, builds on what made the original so effective and adds more capabilities and sophistication. The Avenger is built to fulfill multiple duties and is equipped with cameras and electronic surveillance as well as armaments. Propelled by a Pratt and Whitney turbofan engine, it can cruise at 50,000 feet at speeds of 400 knots (via General Atomics).

.

.

The abilities of the Avenger allow forces to conduct sensitive operations in areas where traditional aircraft would have little cover to safely execute missions. According to Global Security, Avenger drones were used in successful missions to eliminate Al Qaeda’s number two in command, Abu Khayr Al Masri, in 2017. It is suggested that these are the kind of missions that might have previously used aircraft such as the F-117 Nighthawk but are successfully completed using lighter, more efficient, and cheaper UAVs without threat to U.S. personnel. The Avenger is somewhat of a workhorse in the U.S. military and many are deployed in hotspots throughout the world, ostensibly to keep Americans back home safe from distant threats.

kalbokalbs

Slow Guys non strategic, non tactical perspective. Assuredly NOT spot on.

Do we want to? Foolish if we don’t.

  • Until ceasefire arrived, mosquito boats way down on Targeting Priority List. Never percolated to the daily ATO – Air Tasking Order.

Drones available? I’d hope yes. Suicide drones my focus here. May not be agile enough for actively swarming fast boats. Inport can get the job done.

Small Diameter Bomb (SDB) LGBs. 100% 250 lb bomb. Tens thousands in the inventory.

  • F-15, F-35 and F-18 delivery platforms.
  • B-52 can carry, but B-52 slow target itself. There are ways to protect B-52.

>>> As Cooth pointed out,A-10 Warthog preferred platform, for mosquito boats at-sea.

>>> In- port SDB for dispersed mosquito boats. Inert warhead if mosquito boats are among civilian boats.

>>> Larger bombs for mosquito boats in larger concentrations.

>>> “Hidden” mosquito boats likely, in small numbers. If they come out, they can be seen. Destroyed.

Alpha was talking to Boone Cutler (may he rest in peace) about 5th Generation Warfare and the methods used to make people KILL. [Alpha could not use the word ‘Kill’ on Youtube so he used ‘Unalived’]

Influencing people to ‘Unalive’ people happens in 4 phases

  1. polarization
  2. tribalization
  3. Dehumanization
  4. The ‘unaliving’ phase

That video from yesterday is an excellent example showing how far the Criminal Cartel has gotten. The T-shirt the woman is wearing is NOT, in her mind, a contradiction because she does not see President Trump as another Human being. To her, he is another Hitler and must be KILLED to prevent another Nazi Germany. She is completely oblivious of the fact that SHE is an example of a brain-washed Nazi.

Hopefully they are a very very small percentage. Unfortunately the loud mouth bullies can convince people to Shut up and sit down while they commit horrid deeds.

I witnessed it in real time. Some fat bitch was lecturing people about how EVIL plastic was at a large convention. This was a complete fabrication by the Rockefellers/Rothschilds via WWF. It was to target a company that stole (bought) Husky Oil out from under them. So they set out to bankrupt his company who also made plastics. The bastards killed off at least ten factories in MA alone, including mine as a result. I knew the back story and was NOT happy about losing a job I really enjoyed,

Anyway Loud Mouth starts preaching and I challenged her. If She hated plastics so much she needed to give ME her car keys and house keys, take off her clothes and put her money where her mouth was. I then pointed out the various types of plastics she was wearing.

Everyone burst out laughing and she slunk away humiliated.

If I had not appeared armed with data, she would have swayed that crowd of people. That was over three decades ago and illustrates how the rot spreads and how it can be countered before it takes hold.

When I speak of Constitution issues, this is a sample. This issue has been addressed for many years by SCOTUS. However, there is no effective penalty for individuals and states that continue to try and usurp it. The second amendment is an absolute, like freedom of speech. For the Constitution and laws to be fully effective there have to be serious repercussions for challenging their authority and failing besides losing some legal fees. They are using OPM (tax dollars directing and indirectly) to screw over American citizens with impunity.

Security inside of jails is generally up to the warden. It is not subject to the trial judge. If there is a concern about the constitutionality of certain security measures inside a jail, the vehicle to address it is a habeas corpus petition [a separate case].

This judge is both acting outside of his jurisdiction AND showing prejudicial bias.

FYI, judges will often recommend that a convict be held in a certain type of facility. If they actually had jurisdiction, they would order it.

This judge is unfit.

“When a devastated (he was crying like a baby!) Van Jones of CNN came to me with a group of African American leaders, he had “DEAD” in getting Criminal Justice Reform approved in Congress. Van Jones and these Black reps had been unsuccessfully fighting to get “Reform” for many years. He was just wasting everyone’s time – Needed 5 Conservative Senators – there was no chance, or even hope, for a win. I liked some of the people he was with, agreed with what they were saying, and quickly rounded up the votes needed to get CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM approved. It was NOT easy! Nobody else, including Obama, who tried to for years, could have done this! Now I watch this guy, Van Jones, every chance he gets, calling me a “Dictator,” and far worse.

As I figured when Trump announced “Project Freedom”, USN have finished mine sweeping, clearing a path through Strait of Hormuz, further away from Iran. In Oman’s waters.

Commercial vessels can safely navigate free of “mines”. Mines that likely were never there. IMO.

Mines may be in Iran waters.

Lloyd’s, London is pissed about now.

NOW: President Trump’s warships are INFURIATING Iran by ensuring freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz — the regime has LASHED OUT, claiming to strike a US warship

CENTCOM has confirmed it: NO ships were struck

Ships are being told to cross the Strait in OMAN’s waters, which are more secure

CENTCOM IS USING: guided-missile destroyers, 100+ land and sea-based aircraft, and 15K servicemembers @markpmeredith

Blanch, Dhillon, and Cekada are setting the right course,” NRA Board Member and retired Army Lt. Col. Willes K. Lee told Just The News after the DOJ and ATF made the announcement last week.
The shift is not just another regulatory rollback, its a culminating chapter in a half-century arc that began with the ATF’s transformation from a Treasury tax-enforcement bureau (pre-1972, when it was still mostly whiskey and tobacco-focused) into the aggressive regulatory federal agency it became after the 1968 Gun Control Act and especially after moved from within the Treasury Department to the Justice Department after the 9-11 terror attacks. 
Among the new proposed changes is one to scrap a 2024 Biden White House rule that expanded background check requirements for gun sales at shows and other non-store venues. 
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche described the package as “the most comprehensive regulatory overhaul in the history” of the ATF saying it would cut red tape and restore clarity for law-abiding gun owners without weakening enforcement.
For too long, regulations were written without any real understanding of how firearms businesses operate, how lawful gun owners handle their firearms, or what truly improves public safety,” Blanche also said.
Gun control activists have criticized the moves as potentially dangerous.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
“Four days after the nation watched gunfire break out at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, the Trump administration’s answer is to gut commonsense gun safety laws and sabotage the only federal agency dedicated to keeping guns out of criminal hands,” John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety, said in a statement obtained by the Associated Press.
These actions follow mixed reviews during Trump’s first term on Second Amendment issues….”

Hate to break it to them but the only gun control that works is hitting at what you aim to hit, rather than just pulling the trigger while hoping.

If they put all violent black criminals in prison for life, violence in America would plummet to record lows.

Good morning, C&C, it’s Monday! Your week-opening roundup includes: Trump’s latest Iran chess move — declaring the war “terminated” on the exact day the War Powers clock expired, then immediately launching a 15,000-troop “humanitarian” operation called “Project Freedom” to break Iran’s Strait blockade (with Tomahawks, just in case); the Fox News investigation that mapped the May Day protest machine and found 600 groups with $2 billion in revenue — including the Communist Party USA, the Maoist Communist Union, and the California Democratic Party all on the same organizer list, partially funded by an American billionaire who lives in Shanghai; the New York Times education writer who embedded himself in a classical charter school and was visibly shaken to discover that children who read Virgil and use the commodes in an orderly fashion might actually be onto something; and a spirited Florida Taco Bell employee who took the water-cup honor code very seriously indeed.

Trump WILL Impose His Will.

  • Restore Freedom of Navigation in an International Waterway. Strait of Hormuz.
  • IRGC islamis lose again.

Bold mine.

Summary

  • Two US-flagged merchant vessels successfully transited the Strait of Hormuz, US Central Command said on Monday.
  • No US Navy ship was hit by Iranian missiles on Monday, US Central Command said, denying Iranian reports that Islamic Revolutionary Guards had struck a US warship.
  • The maritime security threat level in the Strait of Hormuz remains critical due to ongoing regional military operations, UK Maritime Trade Operations said on Monday.
  • The Islamic Revolutionary Guards warned on Monday that maritime movements violating their announced rules would face serious risks and added that shipping companies and transport insurers should pay attention to IRGC notices about Hormuz, Iran’s state media reported.
  • US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that the United States would launch Project Freedom on Monday morning to help guide stranded ships out of the Strait of Hormuz.
  • Pakistan’s government said on Monday that 22 crew members from a seized Iranian container ship had been evacuated to Pakistan by the United States.
  • “The Islamic Republic has shown that it considers itself the guardian and protector of the Strait of Hormuz,” foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said on Monday.
  • US Central Command said its forces will begin supporting “Project Freedom” on May 4 to help restore freedom of navigation for commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.

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 Monday, May 4, 2026

2 Corinthians 6:18

“And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.”

King James Version (KJV)

COMMENTARY FOR 2 CORINTHIANS 6:18

The apostle, with others, proved themselves faithful ministers of Christ, by their unblamable life and behaviour. (1-10) By affection for them, And by earnest concern, that they might have no fellowship with unbelievers and idolaters. (11-18)1-10 The gospel is a word of grace sounding in our ears. The gospel day is a day of salvation, the means of grace the means of salvation, the offers of the gospel the offers of salvation, and the present time the proper time to accept these offers. The morrow is none of ours: we know not what will be on the morrow, nor where we shall be. We now enjoy a day of grace; then let all be careful not to neglect it. Ministers of the gospel should look upon themselves as God’s servants, and act in every thing suitably to that character. The apostle did so, by much patience in afflictions, by acting from good principles, and by due temper and behaviour. Believers, in this world, need the grace of God, to arm them against temptations, so as to bear the good report of men without pride; and so as to bear their reproaches with patience. They have nothing in themselves, but possess all things in Christ. Of such differences is a Christian’s life made up, and through such a variety of conditions and reports, is our way to heaven; and we should be careful in all things to approve ourselves to God. The gospel, when faithfully preached, and fully received, betters the condition even of the poorest. They save what before they riotously spent, and diligently employ their time to useful purposes. They save and gain by religion, and thus are made rich, both for the world to come and for this, when compared with their sinful, profligate state, before they received the gospel.

11-18 It is wrong for believers to join with the wicked and profane. The word unbeliever applies to all destitute of true faith. True pastors will caution their beloved children in the gospel, not to be unequally yoked. The fatal effects of neglecting Scripture precepts as to marriages clearly appear. Instead of a help meet, the union brings a snare. Those whose cross it is to be unequally united, without their wilful fault, may expect consolation under it; but when believers enter into such unions, against the express warnings of God’s word, they must expect must distress. The caution also extends to common conversation. We should not join in friendship and acquaintance with wicked men and unbelievers. Though we cannot wholly avoid seeing and hearing, and being with such, yet we should never choose them for friends. We must not defile ourselves by converse with those who defile themselves with sin. Come out from the workers of iniquity, and separate from their vain and sinful pleasures and pursuits; from all conformity to the corruptions of this present evil world. If it be an envied privilege to be the son or daughter of an earthly prince, who can express the dignity and happiness of being sons and daughters of the Almighty?

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.

A FATHER’S LOVE

How many times have you fallen short
And the accuser has taken you to court
To enumerate the times you faulted
To report your failure to God exalted 

What would a loving Father say or do
When He lays His eyes on repentant you
He’d welcome you home in a warm embrace
Your sins He’d forgive and quickly erase

The prodigal son is not just a fluke
Notice his father gave him no rebuke
When he returned he was a broken man
In his wisdom his father knew the plan

Had he not learned in his foolishness
What he had done in his stupidness
Was he better off for what he had done
Or was he regretting his quest for fun

We have all been like the child who was lost
We have paid for our foibles a high cost
We might have justified our acts away
Ignored them for a future time or day

Ashamed to ask Our Father to forgive
We kept them hidden maybe to outlive
We may not realize what is kept inside
Prevents us from moving or ever thrive

Our Father’s Love is like no other
To forgive and forget is no bother
His unconditional love to advise
A Father’s Love will aptly apprise

God’s Love letter for you…(worth watching)

duchess01

A loving father, strong and kind is he,
In his eyes and in his siblings, we all see,
Gentle to others, with a caring heart so wide,
Respectful to his wife and all by his side.

In simple ways, he ensures we’re okay,
God-fearing, trustworthy, come what may,
His special traits make him truly grand,
On this special day, I take a stand.

To thank you for the beauty that you bring,
A wonderful father, a true shining king,
You’ve helped me reach for the stars above,
Infinite as the rainbow, my love for you, my love.

For all the love and guidance that you share,
In this world, your presence beyond compare,
In every step of life, you’ve seen me through,
My love for you, dear father, forever true.

I’m sorry, but this is peak foolishness. Secret Service agents would not be lined up against a wall, observing. They would be on duty. They also wore plainclothes suits, not uniforms. Those three people probably worked for the hotel in some capacity, had nothing to do with security that evening, and were justifiably frightened.

The proliferation of inane theories by people who, in my estimation, have no business trying to analyze situations or to lead anyone is disheartening.

patfrederick

commenters to the video at tcth said they were not SS but (because of the insignias on their uniforms) some type of cop/security, but that doesn’t make it better imo.

TheseTruths

An insignia on a uniform could mean they work for the hotel. It doesn’t necessarily mean they are law enforcement.

There’s no way the SS would have people lined up against a wall like that, crowded against each other, like laypeople. There’s no way the police force would either. Notice that all the law enforcement people were scattered around the area. None of the law enforcement people paid any attention to the ones against the wall because they had nothing to do with them.

IMO we need to be cognizant of what appears to be an overwhelming need to “find” things that are scandalous or mysterious or that “prove” something that no one else saw, not even the highly skilled and intelligent people of real law enforcement. It’s not how the real world works.

Last edited 16 hours ago by TheseTruths
patfrederick

with all the insignias on their UNIFORMS they appear to be of some importance–they are not waiters, they are not hostesses. Even IF they are just hotel security, who would PAY for this kind of “security” at any event?

this is what comes of dei bullshit.

TheseTruths

Until we know who they are and in what capacity they were there, IMO it is irresponsible to make assumptions about them. They might have been vendors of some kind. Lots of people wear uniforms. Three (probably) perfectly innocent people are being disparaged.

I see what appears to be possible lanyards worn by two of them. Do the police or SS wear lanyards around their necks? No.

Even if they were hotel security, I doubt they were trained to deal with someone trying to assassinate the president and his cabinet. A lot of security personnel have minimal training. IMO they wisely stayed out of the way of real law enforcement. It’s possible that they were told to do so.

I take great exception to the original (IMO, imbecilic) post that calls them SS agents. And we have no idea whether DEI played any role whatsoever in this. We can’t assume that those people should have done something when that might not have been their role at all.

There’s a lot more I could say about the kind of person who makes posts like the original one, but I will refrain so I won’t cause offense and get banned.🤔 IMO people need to be a LOT more discerning.

mollypitcher5

Not disagreeing with DEI being bullshit But rent-a-cops are nothing but pretend security. Probably the hotel hired them. Hardly any security cops have guns. They’re more like hall monitors!
They sure didn’t sign up to take a bullet for our great Pres

Outside of WH grounds, can’t say I’ve seen SS in uniform. SS in Suits and lots of various LE suits/uniforms.

Aubergine

It’s all over X that they were TSA screeners. They were there to use the magnetometers for screening.

That said, it seems very foolish to me for that kind of personnel to be used as security OF ANY KIND, screener or not, at an event where the President, Vice President, and Speaker would all be in attendance

I don’t think the threat level against the current administration is taken nearly seriously enough.

TheseTruths

Yes, the community note says it.

I don’t think the threat level against the current administration is taken nearly seriously enough.

eilert

Is this AI generated?

Valerie Curren

This looks to be a different angle from a video shared here the other day, with a wider view. Those 3 women were basically in the line of fire when the officer started shooting at the would-be assassin as he ran past her/him just beyond the metal detector.

Tatonka Woman

Sorry. This is ridiculous.

I seems obvious – at least to me – that these three were the team – or part of the team – that “manned” the metal detector screening system. It’s likely that the system was provided by a contractor (would the hotel have its own?) and these three worked for that contractor. They were just standing back against the wall waiting while the equipment was being dismantled.

pgroup2

Agreed.

Rat/mice poop. Very dangerous.

There must be a lot of rodents confined on the ship along with the people confined on the ship  😳 

cthulhu

Wikipoo says “excretions”, and later expands to “Infected animals can spread the virus to uninfected animals through aerosols or droplets from their feces, urine, saliva, and blood, through consumption of contaminated food, from virus particles shed from skin or fur, via grooming, or through biting and scratching.”

Rats and mice tend to dribble urine as they move about, so they can find familiar areas.

Last edited 8 hours ago by cthulhu
Aubergine

One way I have heard of hanta being spread was via canned food. Rats had been on the cans, which weren’t cleaned before they were opened.

You should always wash the tops of canned food before opening them, especially things like fruit that aren’t heated before you eat them. Rats are everywhere; warehouses, grocery store storage, etc.

Aubergine

This seem s very odd to me. Hanta generally is not contagious and transmitted from person to person. It is transmitted by the urine, feces, or saliva of rats.

If it’s on the ship, it’s a rodent problem.

cthulhu

The classic case (and where I first hear of hantavirus) was a structure in the Southwest US. The saw signs of rat infestation and laid out rat poison. All the rats were long dead and people went in to clean the residue by sweeping out the rat droppings and stains.

Which put them in the air, which the cleaners breathed.

X22 Report

@X22Report
The assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents Dinner WAS staged — but by the DEEP STATE. Trump and team already had intelligence it was coming and ALLOWED it to play out to expose who was on their side and who wasn’t. That’s why Trump stayed calm while Melania hid under the table. He knew.

Yea Right!!

It needs to be the Deep State. A convenient vague term which can be invoked for any type of conspiracy.

Can we stop listening to this type of Click Baters.

What would have happened if these sequence of events did not go as planned (according to this theory) and would have gone in another direction thereby harming anyone in that room, who would be made responsible for it?

TheseTruths

Thank you for speaking up.

What would have happened if these sequence of events did not go as planned (according to this theory) and would have gone in another direction thereby harming anyone in that room, who would be made responsible for it?

Regarding harming people, we already have a SS agent who got shot and would be more seriously hurt and possibly dead if not for his vest. I don’t think this administration gambles with people’s lives, including the president’s, to find out who is on their side. I think they already know.

mollypitcher5

Absolutely agree with you Eilert.

Josh Reid mentioned The Wall Street Journal said people were pulling money from Rothschild banks

January 2026
The Rothschild Dynasty Survived Wars and Crises. Will the Epstein Files Tear It Apart?

in March, Ariane de Rothschild assembled staff from her bank in a glass-roofed park pavilion in central Paris. The chief executive told the dozens of private bankers and fund managers that business at the Swiss bank was strong.

As she spoke, French police arrived at the bank’s townhouse office a short walk away. They had orders to search the property as part of an investigation into a diplomat who used to work at the bank and was an associate of the late Jeffrey Epstein . After the event, the CEO went to meet them.

The raid came after the Justice Department’s release of millions of Epstein files had put a harsh spotlight on the sex offender’s elite network of associates—influential people like Ariane, a billionaire baroness through her marriage into the Rothschild dynasty. The DOJ files showed she visited Epstein’s island, sought his advice about complex family relationships and had her bank pay him a $25 million fee for consulting.

A few blocks away, members of another branch of the House of Rothschild were bristling over the reputational knock…

But they raise questions about an earlier characterization by the bank of their relationship, cited by the Wall Street Journal in 2023, which said she met with Epstein as part of her normal duties at the bank.”

This is a different account of the so-called 1953 CIA coupe against the democratically elected prime minister Mossadegh, which in fact was never elected as prime minister, but appointed by the Shah who according to the constitution at the time was the only one who could appoint the PM, similar to the UK.
BTW The Sha was Sha already, since 1941 when is father had abdicated.
The role of the CIA was minimal and actually failed.

Also notice that the Nationalization of Oil industry was supported by the Shah who, after the overthrow of the 3day power grab by Mossadegh, made a 24 year deal with the oil companies for a 50/50% profit sharing deal, since at the time the Iranian Oil company, created through the nationalization, had no capacity to run the oil industry.
This deal was prematurely canceled in 1973 by the Shah, since by that time that Iranian Oil company had become strong enough to run the oil industry:

See also this post:

The Mossadegh-Myth: A coup that never happened

Some stories have been told so often that nobody asks anymore whether they are true. The story of the CIA coup against Mohammad Mossadegh is one of them.

It goes roughly like this: In August 1953, the CIA and MI6, acting on behalf of American and British interests, overthrew Iran’s democratically elected prime minister. They installed the Shah as a puppet. In doing so, they destroyed Iran’s democratic future and laid the groundwork for the Islamic Revolution of 1979, for anti-Americanism, for the mullahs, for everything that has gone wrong since.

Over the past few decades, this narrative has hardened into a Western dogma. It appears in school textbooks, in mainstream American journalism, and in the memoirs of those who shaped U.S. policy. The New York Times, CNN, and the BBC (well well well) have canonized it as the original sin of Western Middle East policy. Hollywood took up the same script: Ben Affleck’s Argo (2012), winner of the Academy Award for Best Picture, opens with a three-minute animated prologue walking the audience through 1953 as the inciting cause of everything that followed. According to screenwriter Chris Terrio, members of Congress later cited that prologue as the source of what they knew about Iranian history when they voted on the 2015 nuclear deal. Even Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr., the CENTCOM commander who ordered the strike on Qassem Soleimani, opens The Melting Point (2024) with a nod to 1953. 

Here in Germany, the chorus is no quieter: Olaf Scholz recently declared that the entire Iranian dilemma traces back to the British and American overthrow of Iran’s democratic government, without which Iran would today be “a very successful Western country.” Richard David Precht repeats the same line on Markus Lanz and his podcast. Natalie Amiri and other so-called “Iran-Experts” points to 1953 in ARD interviews as the key date without which Iran cannot be understood. Ines Schwerdtner of Die Linke drew the same line in the Bundestag. Even the German “Federal Agency for Civic Education “calls 1953 Iran’s “primal catastrophe.”

The only problem is: the story isn’t true.

Not partially untrue. It isn’t a matter of “needing nuance.” It simply isn’t true.

What Mossadegh Was Not

Let’s start with the label that carries the whole thing: “democratically elected.”

Mossadegh was not elected by the people. The Iranian Constitution of 1906 made no provision for the direct election of the head of government. Article 46 of the Supplementary Fundamental Laws expressly assigned the appointment and dismissal of the prime minister to the Shah. (1) Mossadegh came into office in 1951 because the Shah appointed him, following a non-binding expression of preference by parliament, in the expectation that the 69-year-old aristocrat would gracefully decline. To the Shah’s surprise, he accepted.

This is the precise process that the myth sells as a “democratic election.” Anyone who calls Mossadegh democratically elected would, to be consistent, have to apply the same label to every minister or ambassador confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Nobody does.

Mossadegh was no man of the people. He was a Qajar prince, a descendant of the dynasty that had ruled Iran into a state of chronic weakness for more than a century. Under the Qajars, Iran was not a sovereign state but an object of plunder. In 1907, the Russians and British divided the country contractually into spheres of influence; the economy had been sold off through foreign concessions; the hinterland disintegrated into the hands of local tribal chiefs and warlords; and the central government in Tehran often controlled little more than its own capital. It was precisely this disintegration that produced the Constitutional Revolution of 1906. And it was precisely those constitutionalists who, two decades later, together with Reza Khan, the future Reza Shah Pahlavi, finally toppled the Qajar dynasty in 1925. The Pahlavis, in other words, did not come to power against Iran’s constitutional movement but with it, as a response to the failure of the very aristocracy from which Mossadegh hailed. His title Mossadegh ol-Saltaneh, “the one belonging to the monarch,” was no nickname but a noble designation from that very order which had been overthrown. And his coalition, the National Front, was not a democratic movement but a loose alliance of feudal landowners, religious conservatives, and bazaar merchants, held together above all by two demands: the nationalization of oil and the rejection of the modernization policies through which the Pahlavis were attempting to wind down the Qajar legacy of illiteracy, tribal rule, and foreign penetration. Anyone who declares Mossadegh the hero of Iranian democracy overlooks the irony: the man who fought the Pahlavis was a representative of precisely that old order whose removal had created the precondition for Iran ever to become a modern state at all.

What Mossadegh Did

But surely he was at least a democrat in spirit, right? A man who protected the constitution, respected parliament, preserved the institutions?

No.

In 1952, Mossadegh halted the parliamentary elections for the 17th Majles at the very moment when the number of deputies already elected was just sufficient to make parliament quorate. The remaining elections in the rural provinces, where conservative forces threatened to win majorities, never took place. The parliament with which he governed was thus a parliament he had tailored himself. (2)

In the summer of 1953, he then dissolved this incomplete parliament as well, by means of a popular referendum, an instrument that the Iranian constitution neither recognized nor provided for. The right to dissolve parliament, under Article 48, lay exclusively with the king. Mossadegh circumvented this by appealing directly to the “will of the people.” The vote on August 3, 1953, was not held by secret ballot: yes and no votes were cast in spatially separate polling stations, and every voter had to make publicly visible how he was voting. The official result: two million yes-votes against 1,207 no-votes. Even Mossadegh’s niece Sattareh Farmanfarmaian described in her memoirs her stunned disbelief at this act. (3)

In parallel, he had the Majles grant him emergency powers that gave him the right to govern by decree, initially for six months and then extended by another year. He stripped the Supreme Court of its powers. He took over the Ministry of Defense personally, cut its budget by fifteen percent, dismissed 136 officers, and appointed his own nephew as deputy.

And, this is the episode systematically missing from the Western Mossadegh hagiography, he betrayed the Iranian women’s movement. His cousin Mehrangeez Dowlatshahi had mobilized women’s organizations across the country, in the expectation that Mossadegh would introduce women’s suffrage. Initial reform drafts contained the relevant clause. When Ayatollah Kashani protested, Mossadegh struck it. The women who had supported him weren’t even informed. It was Mohammad Reza Shah who, ten years later, would push through women’s suffrage, against the resistance of the very clergy to whom Mossadegh had yielded. (4)

What the CIA Did (and Didn’t Do)

Now to the actual heart of the matter: did the CIA overthrow Mossadegh?

The honest answer is: no. But not because the CIA didn’t try. It’s because the attempt failed.

Operation TPAJAX was set in motion on August 15, 1953. Colonel Nassiri, commander of the imperial guard, brought Mossadegh the dismissal decree signed by the Shah. Mossadegh, forewarned by Tudeh contacts within the army, had Nassiri arrested. The Shah fled the country. The operation collapsed.

This is not the claim of some fringe figures. It is precisely what the Wilber document itself states, the CIA’s internal report, declassified in 2013, that has since been reflexively cited as proof of the coup narrative. The report meticulously chronicles its own failure. The CIA station cabled Washington that the operation had to be abandoned and that they should “make peace with Mossadegh.” Walter Bedell Smith, Eisenhower’s chief of staff, delivered the bad news to the president. (5)

What followed on August 19, the day Mossadegh actually was overthrown, is so contested precisely because to this day no one can seriously document who coordinated the events. The CIA’s own 2017 study (“Zendebad, Shah!”), the State Department records, and the investigations of the National Security Archive are unanimous on this point: it cannot be determined who directed the demonstrations and mob actions of that day. (6)

What can be established is the following:

The CIA had lost operational control of events as of August 13. Its own station noted: “CIA cut out of military preparations by Batmanqelij and Zahedi.” General Zahedi acted from his hiding place through his own military network, a network he had built up long before any Kermit Roosevelt set foot in Iran. The grand ayatollahs Borujerdi and Behbehani mobilized the streets. Ayatollah Kashani, humiliated by Mossadegh, supplied the religious legitimation. The Tudeh Party tore down statues of the Shah, alarming the clergy, who feared a communist takeover. The bazaar shut down. The military marched.

What Kermit Roosevelt actually did after August 16 was this: he had the royal decrees distributed to the press. Nothing more is seriously documented. His 1979 book Countercoup, on which much of the coup narrative rests, is self-mythologization: he even invented messages from Eisenhower in it that were never sent. The paradoxical situation of historiography: those who distrust the CIA believe, of all people, a CIA man, and believe his every word. The CIA itself, after editorial intervention, internally described the book as “essentially a work of fiction.” (7)

That money flowed is undisputed. That this money steered the events of August 19 is a claim unsupported by any document. The CIA has admitted to its failed operation. It has not admitted, and cannot admit, that it directed the successful removal. Because it did not.

What Happened with the Oil

The economic argument with which the coup thesis is typically rounded out also doesn’t stand up to scrutiny. The usual narrative is that the West overthrew Mossadegh in order to return nationalized Iranian oil to private, Anglo-American hands. In fact, the opposite happened. The nationalization of the Iranian oil industry was not reversed after 1953. The National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC), founded in 1951 under Mossadegh, remained the owner of the reserves, the facilities, and the refinery at Abadan. What changed was the form of utilization.

In 1954, the Zahedi government signed what came to be known as the Consortium Agreement, which transferred operational extraction and distribution for 25 years to an international consortium in which the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, renamed British Petroleum in December 1954, held only 40 percent; another 40 percent went, at eight percent each, to five American companies, 14 percent to Royal Dutch Shell, and six percent to the French Compagnie Française des Pétroles. (8)

Profits were split evenly between Iran and the consortium, the exact 50:50 formula that Mossadegh had spent years vainly trying to extract from the British and that, even in the event of a successful nationalization, he would never have achieved, because the country lacked both the tankers and the markets. (9)

Under Mossadegh, the Abadan refinery, then the largest in the world, stood effectively idle; Iranian oil production collapsed from 242 million barrels in 1950 to 10.6 million barrels in 1952. In the first year of nationalization, the only foreign sale achieved was a delivery of 300 barrels to an Italian freighter. The state paid civil servants from the printing press, and tens of thousands of workers in Abadan lost their jobs. (10)

After 1954, the oil flowed again, and revenues multiplied within a few years. In 1973, Mohammad Reza Shah used the opportunity to replace the Consortium Agreement ahead of schedule, through negotiations in St. Moritz, with a new Sale and Purchase Agreement, returning full operational control to NIOC, this time in an orderly fashion, with functioning infrastructure and secured customers. (11)

The nationalization for which Mossadegh is venerated as a martyr was thus completed not in spite of, but after, his overthrow.

Who Benefits from the Lie?

That leaves the uncomfortable question: why does this story persist so stubbornly?

Because it offers too much to too many actors to disappear.

It serves the Western left, which after Vietnam needed a vocabulary of American guilt. Iran became the canvas on which “imperialism” could be demonstrated beyond the Southeast Asian defeat. Stephen Kinzer’s All the Shah’s Men (2003) even derived 9/11 from 1953, a chain of causation so absurd that it works only if no one asks any questions.

The CIA itself also profited massively from this narrative. The events surrounding 1953 were a complete success for both the West and Iran: communist influence was pushed back, looming chaos was averted, and in the following decades up to 1979, Iran experienced one of the most impressive economic developments in its history, from the modernization of infrastructure to educational and land reforms to a rapid industrial rise. The CIA, then still a young agency hungry for prestige, wanted to claim these laurels for itself, even if strictly behind closed doors. It used the operation’s outcome internally to consolidate its position as a central instrument of U.S. foreign policy, and it approved and edited Kermit Roosevelt’s book Countercoup, which popularized the image of a triumphant coup. (12)

It serves Western politicians who want to stage diplomacy and appeasement with Tehran as atonement for past guilt. Madeleine Albright apologized in 2000. Barack Obama repeated the legend in Cairo in 2009 and in his memoirs. John Kerry negotiated the nuclear deal with diplomats who, schooled in the language of Western self-accusation, played the Mossadegh card routinely whenever the pressure at the negotiating table grew too great.

But no one benefits from it more than the regime in Tehran itself.

Ali Khamenei is dead. The system he embodied for decades lives on, for now, as of the time of this article, and with it the function the Mossadegh myth serves for that system. As long as the world is talking about 1953, it isn’t talking about 1979. As long as the supposed CIA coup is being debated, the mass executions of 1988, in which thousands of political prisoners were murdered on Khomeini’s orders, are not. As long as Mohammad Reza Shah appears as an “American puppet,” the Revolutionary Guards, who since 1979 have been financing terror in dozens of countries, don’t have to explain themselves. As long as the West accuses itself, the regime in Tehran doesn’t have to face accusation.

The legend of the coup is the most important weapon of the Islamic Republic. Not its missiles. Not its proxy militias. Not even its nuclear program.

But a story the West tells itself, and which the regime listens to, comfortably leaning back.

What This Means for Us

In January 2026, an estimated tens of thousands of Iranian demonstrators died under the gunfire of their own security forces. Eyewitnesses reported hundreds of corpses in the streets. The regime shut down the internet so that the world could not watch.

In that very moment, German politicians, talk-show intellectuals, and public broadcasting correspondents were declaring that the real key to understanding Iran lay in a 73-year-old event that, in truth, did not happen the way they retell it. They did so in the conviction that they were saying something enlightened.

That is the real scandal. Not that the story is told incorrectly. But that it is told incorrectly at the very moment when the victims of this regime are dying in the streets, and that the lie covers, of all people, those who pulled the triggers.

Not merely that, but because every repetition of this lie is a slap in the face of those Iranians who, since 1979, have been tortured, hanged, and shot so that the regime can keep ruling. The Iranian tragedy did not begin in 1953. It began in 1979.

And it will soon be over.

This is the english translation of my german article “Die Mossadegh-Lüge: Ein Putsch, der keiner war”, published originally on 27th April 2026. It has been changed a little bit to adopt for an international audience.

Judge apologizes to White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting suspect Cole Allen over jail conditions

DC federal judge apologized Monday to the man accused of trying to assassinate President Trump and members of his cabinet at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner for the restrictive conditions he’s been subjected to in jail.

US Magistrate Judge Zia M. Faruqui told Cole Allen, 31, he was sorry that the suspect had been held under suicide watch despite a mental health exam finding he didn’t pose a threat to harm himself, according to Politico.

Faruqui said it was the court’s job to make sure Allen was jailed responsibly and safely, adding that he was “being treated differently than anyone I’ve ever observed.”

Prosecutor Jocelyn Ballantine said the FBI recommended the measure because Allen told agents after his apprehension April 25 that “he did not expect to survive the attempted assasination of the president.”

Praying January 6 Grandma Slapped with Biggest Misdemeanor Fine in History

72-year-old Rebecca Lavrenz, a great-grandmother who did nothing more than pray inside the Capitol that day, has just been slapped with the largest and most punitive misdemeanor fine in history….

Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui sentenced Grandma Lavrenz to six months of home confinement. Faruqui also slapped Grandma Lavrenz with a $103,000 fine. Faruqui claimed that this was her “share” of the cost to replace the windows she did not break.

Her sentence gets even worse, though. The Soros prosecutors and the judge were infuriated by the praying grandma because she has dared to express her opinion on the way the DOJ has been violating the rights of January 6ers. She’s made appearances on NewsMax, Sebastian Gorka’s podcast, Emeral Robinson’s podcast, and numerous other places.

She has a website and a large following of conservative Christians and Trump supporters. In other words, this little old lady is a THREAT to the Deep State, so they needed to shut her up until after the election.

During her six months of home confinement, Judge Faruqui has banned her from accessing the internet or sending emails to anyone…

A politico story where the guy allegedly attacked a cop on Jan 6th:

Judge: Massive scope of Jan. 6 probe led to rights being ‘trampled’Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui decried delays in the case of a Texas man accused of assaulting police.

…A judge warned the Justice Department on Monday that it might be seeking to pursue so many cases stemming from the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol Riot that some defendants’ rights were being trampled.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui delivered the stern rebuke to federal prosecutors at a hearing for a Texas man who the judge said was “lost” in the court system after being arrested in December and accused of assaulting police officers during the storming of the Capitol.

“You have been lost for months,” Faruqui told Lucas Denney of Mansfield, Texas, during a hearing in a Washington courtroom. “There’s no excuse to treat a human being like that. … There is no circumstance under which any person should be forgotten.”

Faruqui said the mammoth nature of the federal investigation, which has led to charges against more than 750 people, was no justification for Denney’s languishing in custody.

“The government has chosen to charge the largest case ever,” said the magistrate judge, who noted he was formerly a federal prosecutor in the same U.S. Attorney’s Office leading the investigation. “If they do not have the resources to do it, they ought not do that. … It feels like the government has bitten off more than it can chew here.”…

I was an operating room RN and unfortunately involved in 2 organ harvest cases. Everything I saw during those cases was bizarre, macabre and has haunted me. I had nightmares for months after those cases. Let me explain why….

graphic discription
The patient is brought into the OR, pink and breathing on a ventilator. There are usually 2 teams of doctors. The heart is removed first and hustled out in a cooler. Then the kidneys, liver and other vitals…..lungs, pancreas. Basically leaving a hollow chest cavity. The closers step in to close the rib cage and skin. The second team of doctors are working on removing the long bones of the legs & replacing the with PVC pipe to maintain shape.
Another team harvests eyeballs and corneas.
Once the chest is closed the leg team moves to strip bones from the arms.
I wanted to vomit.
This was butchering a human.
I don’t think most people are aware when they become an organ donor what actually occurs.
I immediately changed my donation status on my license, not wanting my death hastened by harvesters! They really pressure families to donate organs!
I question ‘brain death.’
Organ harvesting may help those with $$ to live longer lives but as a society, we should be more concerned with approaching death with far more acceptance instead of fear.

Several years ago, changed my DL and Medical directive – NO organ donations. Have read too many horror stories and big money gets involved. I am not for sale, dead or alive.

STRAIT SHOWDOWN: Trump’s Project Freedom Puts Iran to the Ultimate TestPromethean Action

https://rumble.com/v79e4lg-strait-showdown-trumps-project-freedom-puts-iran-to-the-ultimate-test.html

President Trump announces “Project Freedom,” directing the U.S. Navy to escort neutral-country ships through the Strait of Hormuz starting Monday and warning that interference will be attacked, while noting positive U.S.-Iran discussions and framing the move as a test of whether Iran’s negotiators control the IRGC. The episode argues Trump is using oil and gas to rebuild the U.S. economy and to displace London’s oil-pricing power, citing April 20 Presidential Determinations under the Defense Production Act, a National Energy Dominance Council led by Doug Burgum and Chris Wright, and rising U.S. production driving lower prices, a manufacturing revival, and a shrinking trade deficit. It contrasts this with post-1971 “petrodollar” strategy, OPEC shocks, “controlled disintegration,” and Iran-related destabilization, and claims modern media propaganda—from Lippmann to Operation Mockingbird to recent censorship networks—drives anti-Trump narratives.

Dehumanizing is exactly what happened to the Jews in the lead up to the holocaust as well as to blacks during the era of buying/using slaves.

It’s no accident that the current agenda of calling Trump and conservatives Nazis is happening. Anti Trump sentiment is spreading like a virus.

Correct, that is why I posted it.

All this shit the Fake news is doing is NOT harmless. It is grooming people until they are willing to kill or OK with the killing of White Christian Conservatives.

We already saw the FBI targeting Catholic Churches and the storming of the Minnesota Church by activists including  former CNN anchor Don Lemon.

Heck Luigi Mangione, accused of killing Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare,  is now a HERO to some.

Luigi Mangione – Wikipedia

Since his arrest, Mangione has received significant public attention. According to polls, a large majority of Americans over 45 hold negative views of Mangione, while a majority of under 30 view him favorably.[15][16] Mangione has drawn international support through graffiti, social media, and local court hearings, transforming him into a folk hero for those critical of the U.S. health insurance industry and its claim denial practices.[17][18]

That should scare the crap out of us!

It does make me edgy. The admin is making real headway to dismantle the DS but like the old saying, a cornered animal is dangerous. The corrupt judiciary has been one of the biggest obstacles. If they hadn’t been hobbling every swift improvement the DS wouldn’t have so much time to organize the response. The response now is inciting hate across the board.

The episode argues Trump is using oil and gas to rebuild the U.S. economy and to displace London’s oil-pricing power, citing April 20 Presidential Determinations under the Defense Production Act, a National Energy Dominance Council led by Doug Burgum and Chris Wright, and rising U.S. production driving lower prices, a manufacturing revival, and a shrinking trade deficit.

It contrasts this with post-1971 “petrodollar” strategy, OPEC shocks, “controlled disintegration,” and Iran-related destabilization, and claims modern media propaganda—from Lippmann to Operation Mockingbird to recent censorship networks—drives anti-Trump narratives.

From OT. Everything is fine in Germany.

Volkswagen Likely to Allow Chinese Automaker to Build in Shuttered Volkswagen Auto Plants
May 4, 2026 

SD: “How do you sum up the economic forecast for Europe? This story highlights one of the craziest stories in a long time. This is so blindingly suicidal, it cannot be stupidity. This is intentional.
[jpeg of German cars]

BACKGROUND – You might remember last year due to climate/carbon emission regulations inside Europe EU automakers had to pay fines to the EU Commission if they did not meet electric vehicle targets. In order to avoid the penalties many EU automakers began purchasing ‘carbon credit’ offsets from Chinese EV automakers.

European car makers were paying China for carbon credits, and Chinese car companies began using the payments to lower prices. Europe was, essentially, paying China to undercut their own auto market. The result was European car makers, specifically those in Germany, losing market share to lower price EVs from China. German industry began shrinking.

If that wasn’t crazy enough, what comes next is beyond laughable. As a result of lost sales and diminished volumes, Volkswagen had shut down auto plants. Now, Volkswagen is announcing that Chinese automakers, their China “partners,” will take over the underutilized facilities and start building Chinese cars in Germany.

GERMANY – Volkswagen Group is facing increased pressure from its board to further cut costs despite already announcing radical measures, such as axing around 50,000 jobs in Germany by 2030 and reducing production capacity by up to 3 million units per year to 9 million, which would make it very difficult to avoid plant closures or sales. Overall, Europe’s largest automaker aims to reduce costs by 20% by the end of 2028.

In an attempt to mitigate the effect of these measures, the automaker appears ready to do what not too long ago would have seemed unthinkable, namely selling China-developed cars in Europe and even sharing its underutilized plants in the region with its Chinese partners.

That’s what CEO Oliver Blume told investors and analysts on April 30 after presenting the company’s first-quarter 2026 results, which saw the automaker’s profit drop 14% to $2.92 billion amid higher U.S. tariffs and intense competition from Chinese carmakers.

In order to deal with excess capacity in Europe and rising competition from Chinese brands in Europe in the coming years, Blume said VW Group is considering selling China-built cars in Europe. It’s the first time that Volkswagen has acknowledged it is contemplating such a move. (read more)

♦ SUMMARY: Volkswagen went to China to sell cars. Volkswagen opened EV auto plants in China bringing in German industrial technology and equipment. China learned from Volkswagen and started their own EV auto companies to compete. Volkswagen EV sales in China started dropping dramatically, and the Chinese EV brands took over.

Due to internal climate regulations in Europe, Volkswagen in the EU then begins giving money to China that subsidizes their competition. China exports their EVs to Europe. Volkswagen EV auto plants start closing. China now takes control of the Volkswagen EV auto plants to build Chinese EVs in Germany.

With operations now inside the house, the Chinese government extract European wealth and pump subsidies into their EV operations in Germany, flooding the European market with cheap EVs that will undercut the German auto manufacturing sector.

You cannot make steel with windmills and solar panel energy. Germany has destroyed much of their coal and nuclear power plants. German energy prices have skyrocketed. German steel is expensive. German cars are expensive as a result. Where do you think the inexpensive steel for the ultra-cheap Chinese EVs will come from?

Now, replace [Germany] with [Canada].”

TB, I am convinced that we are in real trouble if gas prices don’t come back down pretty soon. They’ve gone up sixty cents a gallon here in the last week. People are really upset about it.

Core factory orders are now surging, this will continue as more and more plants are built. Bessent says that the economy is on the right track, and as soon as the excursion is finished oil prices will drop. Carney admits that Trump is destroying the [CB] system and they are trying to figure out how to stop it. Trump has brought the [DS] and Iran down a path that is going to trap them. If they fire on a humanitarian mission Trump has the leverage to defend the US. He just bypassed the War Powers Act. Trump is continually praising Thune, keeps pushing to kill the filibuster. Timing is everything. What if Trump is using the Save America Act as a trap, what if he is waiting for the last minute to pass it so the [DS] doesn’t have time to counter it? What if Trump will then use an EO to back it all up.

According to reports, “things went sideways” and the bad guy was shot. Turns out the bad guy was armed. No details on the bad guy’s condition yet.

Three Stooges vote no, for LA to fast track redistricting.

Alito and Thomas rake Kenji over the coals.

BREAKING: The US Supreme Court has just GRANTED Louisiana’s request to fast-track their judgement to allow the red state to redistrict ahead of the 2026 midterms

Racial gerrymandering is COOKED, this means Louisiana is on track to redraw!

Ketanji Brown Jackson dissents

LFG! Thank you SCOTUS!

kalbokalbs

Kenji taken to the woodshed.

HOLY CRAP!! Justices Sam Alito and Clarence Thomas just PUMMELED Ketanji Jackson’s dissent, calling it “trivial at best, and the other is baseless and INSULTING”

Jackson basically ATTACKED the majority, and argued Louisiana should be required to use an *unconstitutional* racially gerrymandered map in the 2026 midterms — directly against the majority ruling.

Alito didn’t take too kindly to that:

“The dissent goes on to claim that our decision represents an unprincipled use of power…that is a groundless and utterly irresponsible charge.”

“What principle has the Court violated? The principle that Rule 45.3’s 32-day default period should never be shortened even when there is good reason to do so? The principle that we should never take any action that might unjustifiably be criticized as partisan?”

“The dissent accuses the Court of ‘unshackl[ing] itself from ‘constraints…’ It is the DISSENT’S rhetoric that lacks restraint.”

“The dissent in this suit levels charges that cannot go unanswered. The dissent would require that the 2026 congressional elections in Louisiana be held under a map that has been held to be unconstitutional.”

“The dissent does not claim that it is now too late for the state legislature or the District Court to adopt a new map that complies with the Constitution.”

“Nor does the dissent assert that it is not feasible for the elections to be held under such a map. Instead, the dissent offers two reasons for its proposed course of action.”

“One is trivial at best, and the other is baseless and insulting.”

Gorsuch signed onto this as well.

I am really really hoping to see an indictment against Marc Elias. He and his DAMNED lawsuits are responsible for much of the Election fraud over the years.

At a minimum, every time they lose a lawsuit, they should be forced to pay All Costs. Court. Labor and expenses for whoever prevailed. Plus punitive, penalty for being jerkwads.

pgroup2

The parents should be fined for spawning such dreck.

TheseTruths

I wondered what grounds they think they have for suing. From the article:

The map is expected to come under legal scrutiny from several groups, however, because critics say it flies in the face of Florida’s Fair Districts Amendment, which was overwhelmingly passed in 2010. That amendment to the Florida Constitution says maps cannot be drawn to favor an incumbent or a political party. Districts are also supposed to be drawn to be compact.

On Monday afternoon, prominent election lawyer Marc Elias filed a lawsuit in Florida’s Second Circuit Court in Leon County, seeking to block the map from being used, on behalf of the Equal Ground Education Fund and several Florida voters.

It wouldn’t surprise mr if some judge rules in their favor.

NOW: Sec. Scott Bessent reveals Iranian leadership have FLED into HIDING, he’s closely watching their financials and President Trump is opening the Strait

“I think the Iranians are starting to believe their OWN propaganda.”

“They have high tolerance for pain? Well, their SOLDIERS will not have a high tolerance for not getting PAID.”

“The Iranians do NOT have control of the Strait — we have ABSOLUTE control over the Strait!”

“Just to be clear, the leadership is hunkered down in bunkers all over the country.”

“I don’t think THEY know what’s going on!”

“Their Navy is not a Navy anymore. It’s a band of pirates. They are trying to cut off international freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz.”

“And the US is opening that up. This is a humanitarian effort.”

“I had numerous countries come up to me, some of the poorest, some of the most vulnerable, and ask us to do this because it’s not only energy that’s in there, it’s fertilizer, it’s food transport, it’s LPG for the more than the billion plus people in India used to cook.”

kalbokalbs

DONALD TRUMP JUST INFURIATED IRAN WITH A MASTERCLASS

“We basically sailed multiple guided missile destroyers straight through the gap. We demined this little safe passage along the coast of Oman.”

“Unblocking the Strait while we maintain the blockade, that’s going to REALLY bring their negotiating team to its knees. It also unlocks all of this pent-up cargo and energy out of there. And we did it without boots on the ground!”

“And we did it without any Asian or European allies, so you’re welcome.”

“We’ve created an entire defensive UMBRELLA around the Gulf with anti-missile defense systems, helicopters, fighter jets, drones with about 15,000 service members, and we’ve already got two U.S.-flagged vessels out of there safely. This is a defensive operation.”

“We don’t fire until fired upon. They fired first. They broke the ceasefire, and it didn’t go very well for them.”

“Six of their fast boats from the Mosquito Fleet, WASTED by Apaches and Seacraft helicopters, and then also a bunch of missiles and drones they shot out, all of them intercepted!”

“They threw some missiles over at our buddies at the UAE. Almost all of them intercepted.”

“There’s a small fire at an export terminal. I think it’s going to be okay. But if Iran continues to escalate, we can climb the escalation ladder.”

“We can do it all day. It’s not going to end well for them. Right now, Operation or Project Freedom looks really savvy, sophisticated, and the oil markets are going to love it.”

“This corners their negotiating team, and it will really put the president in a great position when he goes to Beijing in about 10 days!” —

So, Yours Truly purchased (Amazon) and read the books on what actually can happen after a root canal procedure: Toxic Teeth (Y.L. Wright, MA, and J.M. Swartz, MD); and, The Toxic Tooth (Robert Kulacz, DDS, and Thomas E. Levy, MD, JD.)

And I called the dentist’s office today. Told them that the root canal that was scheduled for me for this Thursday won’t happen — instead, I said I wanted a second opinion diagnostic exam with another dentist there. Got that scheduled for the same time slot.

At this time, Yours Truly is strongly leaning in the direction of tooth extraction + a fixed bridge solution.

PAVACA, I’m due for one in August. Do you happen to know if the tooth isn’t dead does it make a difference?
I was confused about it. Mine was recommended due to the tooth having a big old filling that he wants to take out

cthulhu

For those who remember five decades of “we’ll have controlled fusion in 10 years”, there’s also two decades of “we’ll be able to regrow teeth in four years.”

scott467

Is a CROWN not an option (for you OR Pavaca)?

Gail Combs

If the decay is too close to the nerve or the nerve(s) have died & abscessed then a root canal is done and a crown is placed on the dead tooth. (I just went thru it)

mollypitcher5

Thank you Gail…see my comment above

mollypitcher5

LOL I just looked at my paperwork. It is a crown. I thought root canal meant a crown! Duh.  🙃  I’ve been lucky on dental issues so it’s a new one to me.

PAVACA

Apparently, if the nerve and pulp of the tooth is dead / badly decayed, the blood flow to the tooth is either cut off or badly compromised. So the tooth dies on the inside.
A tooth has about 3 miles’ worth of tiny things called tubules inside the tooth. These tubules bring blood and nutrients to the tooth pulp. They also help to regulate how the tooth reacts to heat/cold and how it deals with bacteria, etc.
A tooth that is dead on the inside apparently can become a breeding ground for anaerobic bacteria. These bacteria can get into the bloodstream via the bottom of the dead tooth’s root. That’s when trouble can start. The bacteria can wind up in other areas of the body and cause inflammation.
The question then is, if a tooth is dead on the inside, why would the dentist clean out the dead nerve and pulp, fill the tooth with an inert compound, put a crown on it, and leave a dead tooth in the mouth where it can breed anaerobic bacteria?

mollypitcher5

Thank you for the info ..I’m sorry , it was a dumb question on my part to begin with!

pgroup2

Why?

To support the teeth on either side and keep the roots from weakening their hold in the jawbone.

pgroup2

After I had all my teeth removed [and dentures fitted, of course], for about three or four years I would get a little sore spot on the side of my lower gum any time I got a low grade infection. It was so reliable that doc would ask if my gum hurt whenever I called to make an appointment. If I said yes, he’d just send a script for Z-pack to the pharmacy before I showed up for the appointment!

This recent interview of Mattias Desmet (whom we got to know during the COVID years) is worth viewing:

Here is the description:

It‘s not just the leaders of the EU who want to go to a suicidal war with Russia. The psychosis has long reached even the streets of Berlin, Brussels and Paris. Mass-Formation is the psychological phenomenon to understand why entire nations are suddenly willing to sacrifice EVERYTHING for a deadly ideology. Unfortunately, the EU is far down the road. Today I speak with Dr. Mattias Desmet, professor of clinical psychology in Belgium and author of The Psychology of Totalitarianism, about mass formation, totalitarianism, propaganda, loneliness, free speech, war narratives, and the emotional pull of group belief. The discussion covers the difference between dictatorships and totalitarian states, the role of education and media, and sincerity as a way to resist mass hypnosis.

Had to post this one even thought it has to be fake. Some funny stuff 😂

MEMPHIS MAN ARRESTED AFTER TRYING TO TRADE HIS WIFE FOR A USED BASS BOAT AND $400 (PLUS A LITTLE SOMETHING TO SWEETEN THE DEAL)
MEMPHIS, TN — Because apparently Craigslist was down, a 54-year-old Memphis man wandered into Bass Pro Shops on Tuesday morning and attempted to negotiate what he confidently described as a “fair market trade”: his wife of 23 years… for a slightly questionable 14-foot aluminum fishing boat and $400 cash.
Authorities say Ronnie Buckley-Jenkins approached the boat counter at exactly 11:14 a.m. (because of course he did), pointed at a boat priced at $4,200, and asked, “What would it take to walk outta here with that one?” When the associate gave him the price, Ronnie countered with a package deal that included:

His wife, Denise
$400 cash
A bag of frozen catfish “to close the deal”

Bold strategy. Shockingly, the employee did not immediately ring it up.
Ronnie then stood at the counter for 41 minutes… just marinating in confidence. During that time, he presented a printed document titled “WIFE-FOR-BOAT TRANSFER AGREEMENT” (yes, in all caps, because professionalism). Highlights from the masterpiece include:

A 14-day return policy (because customer satisfaction matters)
A notarization by his cousin… who is absolutely not a notary
A “best features” section listing “doesn’t snore” and “can clean a bass”
An “as-is condition disclosure,” because we’re keeping things honest
A checkbox marked “VERY GENTLY USED” (sir…)

Meanwhile, Denise was sitting in the truck outside, completely unaware she had been bundled into a clearance deal next to a boat with a hole in the hull.
The Bass Pro employee did what any reasonable human would do: pretended to “check with a manager” and immediately called the police.
When deputies arrived, things only got better:

Denise reportedly responded with a deeply philosophical, “He WHAT.”

Ronnie insisted the trade was “fair market value”

The boat… again… had a hole in it

The employee was later offered a $50 gift card for surviving the interaction

Denise has since filed for divorce, citing what legal experts are now calling “the boat thing.”
When asked for comment, Ronnie stood by his decision, stating, “It came with a trolling motor.”
Denise, however, offered a slightly different perspective:
“I have a job. I have a HOME. I did not sign up to be traded like a dented canoe.”
Somewhere in Memphis, a Bass Pro employee is still staring into the middle distance, wondering how their day went from selling fishing gear to rejecting a human barter system straight out of 1823…

Chiefio.

This splains it. Fascinating stuff. Who had this on their Bongo card February 1st?

Why Iran hit UAE so much. Plus Israel defended UAE?
I was wondering why UAE got hit so much, then found this “explainer”
The basic theme seems to be that Iran wanted to create / expand a rift between Saudi and UAE. So hit the UAE more than anyone else, including Israel. Once UAE were down to 25% of their Patriot batteries left, they asked Israel for help and Israel sent an Iron Dome system, a laser based anti-drone system, and a very good sensitive radar for long distance detection.

This now has UAE trusting Israel. And leaving OPEC.

TousiTV is reporting that Iran has once again decided to go after UAE today, and the USA is providing some defense as well.

IMHO, this partly stems from UAE being “too western” and “too modern” for the Dark Ages IRGC mind set.

What a world we live in. UAE & Israel working together with the USA against the nut-bars in Iran…

Watch this space as it looks like things are hotting up again.

Like where Mahyar Tousi says, at about 11 minutes, that UAE is preparing to take military action against Iran…
