VLADIMIR Putin was noted to be looking "puffy" and struggling to move "like he used to" in a rare outing to mark Victory Day in Moscow. Vladimir Putin has sparked speculation about his health after political analysis began to notice changes in his appearance since he resumed public duty following the Coronavirus pandemic. Russia's leader effectively disappeared from the public eye during the health crisis and only recently began to be pictured once again surrounded by his aides, albeit keeping them at a distance. Lord Dannatt noted Putin appeared rather "puffy" and struggling to move "freely" as he walked around...

Far-right activists are intercepting migrant children and collecting information about their families, based on an unfounded conspiracy theory that they are falling prey to sex-trafficking rings. SASABE, Ariz. — The 15 migrant children, weary and hungry, stumbled toward a gap in the rust-colored border wall that soars between Mexico and Arizona, nearing the end of their two-week trek north. Unexpectedly, a man in a cap emblazoned with a blackened American flag — traditionally, a message that “no quarter” will be given to the enemy — approached them and coaxed them to his campsite. Soon, the girls and boys, who were...

It was his freshman year. The University of Florida student had just returned from a night out drinking with friends in 2018 when he was caught by university police with a fake ID — one he said he wasn’t even using that night. His friends had bought him alcohol, but he drank too much and fell asleep in the common area of Rawlings Hall, where his friend lived. A university police officer searched his wallet, he said, and discovered his fake ID. He remembered being told he might get an email from the university and that otherwise he was “good...

At an upcoming conference on May 22 – 28, ultimate control over America’s healthcare system is scheduled to be delivered, pending a vote, to the World Health Organization that will give sweeping power to the WHO’s Director-General to declare health emergencies or crises in any nation, even if that nation opposes it. The Director-General will be able to declare these health crises based merely on his personal opinion or consideration that there is a potential or possible threat to other nations. If passed, the amendments, proposed by the Biden administration, will drastically compromise the independence and the sovereignty of the...

Patrisse Cullors took to Instagram today to expose the agenda of the right-wing media. In a seven-minute video, she explained that upon waking up this morning, she discovered Candace Owens, a conservative influencer, outside of her home along with a news crew.

President Zelenskyy address. He remembers Nazis horrors of WWII and compares them to the the horrors of the Russian invasion. He expressed hope of the final victory.

True The Vote’s evidence, along with Dinesh D’souza’s film 2000 Mules has helped awaken the American public to the fact that the 2020 election was rigged. The fraud primarily happened via a MASSIVE “ballot trafficking cartel”. And although we know WHAT happened, there are still many questions left unanswered. Americans are scratching their heads, wondering how 810,000 illegal votes could have been cast in a single election. This type of undertaking would require a tremendous number of resources, as well as tens of thousands of willing participants… So, this begs the question; who could pull this off, while also going...

Illia Samoilenko, an intelligence officer, said that the commander of the 36th Brigade of Ukrainian Marines, Volodymyr Baraniuk, decided to flee the encircled city of Mariupol, taking with him people, tanks and ammunition. Source: Samoilenko during a briefing from Azovstal Samoilenko's Quote: One could run away like a coward, think only of one's own life, but not think about one's own duty, the oath that one took upon oneself. This is exactly what happened to the commander of the Marines of the 36th Brigade. He simply refused to carry out the order that was issued to him. And he tried...

ORLANDO, Fla. — The attorney for two women who were denied entry into an Orlando strip club in 2018 because they weren’t with a man said Friday he plans to take their case to the Florida Supreme Court again because the issue is more than who can have fun at a gentlemen’s club. It’s whether local governments can enact anti-discrimination ordinances that offer more protections than the Florida Civil Rights Act, said Matthew Dietz, a Miami attorney who represents Brittney Smith and Anita Yanes. “We do believe that this issue is so important,” Dietz said. “We’re living in a time...

When Hunter Biden took his laptop to a Wilmington, Delaware computer repair shop in 2019, he had no idea what a mess he would create after forgetting or abandoning his files that would eventually be turned over to the FBI and end up splashed across numerous covers of The New York Post. Now, in a book written by the computer repair shop's owner John Paul Mac Isaac, there are even more absurd details about Hunter Biden's life and the events that led to the contents of the now-first son's laptop becoming public in the final stretch of the 2020 presidential...

Last night I watched the Dinesh D'Souza documentary 2000 Mules and was quite impressed with it. From an integrity perspective, I think the True The Vote team did the right thing, setting the bar for judging movements of mules engaged in illegal actions very high (Criteria: A person had to have visited 10 ballot drop boxes as well as at least the location of a single non-profit stash house) and showing even that high bar would have changed the election. If they lowered the bar to say, fewer drop boxes visited, the election was a Trump rout of Biden. I...

New human remains were found at Lake Mead in Nevada over the weekend, days after a decomposed body was found in a metal barrel at the lake's shrinking shoreline. A witness reported seeing human skeletal remains at Callville Bay within the Lake Mead National Recreation Area at 2 p.m local time on Saturday, the National Park Service said in a release.

Yesterday, on Mother's Day, pro-abortionists protested against Motherhood. They attempted to harass and intimidate Justices of the Supreme Court and their families. They are blocking and desecrating churches. They're screaming "Thank God for abortion." If God gave us abortion, he also gave us 9-11, the Holocaust, COVID and Hitler. Protesters do not appreciate the irony of trumpeting "my body, my choice" and "not your body" when just months ago they were demanding that everyone allow government to repeatedly stick a needle in their arms. They want government out of the bedroom but into the deltoids. The unvaccinated, who wanted choice...

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and his team have discussed whether he will promise to resign in the event of being fined by Durham police for breaking Covid rules. The opposition leader is expected to make a statement at 16:00 BST. Sir Keir has been under pressure after police announced they would be investigating an event at which he drank beer at an MP's office in 2021. Labour has said Sir Keir was working, and insist no rules were broken. But, Conservatives have accused Sir Keir of "rank double standards" as the opposition leader had previously called for Prime Minister...

Twitter employees reading the tea leaves as they try to discern the future in an Elon Musk-owned company received some bad news last week. Musk recently prepared a presentation for investors, known as a pitch deck, that outlines some of the moves he’s planning for the social media giant, according to The New York Times. The deck includes Musk’s plans to expand the company, which in the long run will expand its workforce. However, it makes it clear that about 10 percent of the workforce that starts 2023 will not finish the year.

The Second Amendment Foundation is joining the arguments in court against the extraordinary process the state of Hawaii requires people to go through if they want to purchase a gun. The organization announced it has filed a friend-of-the-court brief on behalf of consumers who, in Yakutake v. Hawaii, have challenged a couple of "cumbersome" state laws. "This is a case," explains the brief, "where a state-actor purports to comply with the Constitution’s text and Supreme Court case law, while intentionally undermining the fundamental right at issue. In fact, Hawaii is only engaged in a kind of malicious compliance." The foundation...

Monday on CNN’s “New Day,” author and journalist Carl Bernstein accused former President Donald Trump of being “the first seditious president in the history of the United States.” Bernstein, known for his reporting on former President Richard Nixon’s Watergate scandal, said Trump was a “seditious president who staged a coup to stay in office and not allow the transfer of power” to his successor.

Posted May 9th, 2022 at 6:01 AM (CST) by Bill Holter & filed under Bill Holter. Over the years, many have continually asked “when”? When will the system break down? Well, I have some good news and some bad news for you. The good news is; you are watching the collapse in real time with your own eyes. The bad news? You are watching the collapse in real time with your own eyes! This will be short and sweet. 1. Inflation is raging as the continual money printing, expansions of debt, and deficit spending have finally overwhelmed the financial engineering...
