President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have made clear that the collapse of Cuba’s communist government is not only a likely side benefit of Maduro’s ouster but a goal.No place was hit harder than Cuba by the shock waves that Saturday morning’s U.S. military seizure of Venezuela’s Nicolás Maduro sent throughout Latin America and the world. Within hours of the operation — long before the government in Havana acknowledged it — phone calls and texts across the island spread the news that dozens of elite Cuban security forces had been killed guarding Maduro. But by the time...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio did not rule out that the Cuban communist government could become the Trump administration's next target, a day after Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro's arrest. During an interview with "Meet the Press," Rubio sent a warning to the Cuban government, asserting "they're in a lot of trouble." "Is the Cuban government the Trump administration's next target," journalist Kristen Welker said. "Well, the Cuban government is a huge problem. Yeah," Rubio replied. "Is that a yes?" Welker asked. "I think they're in a lot of trouble, yes," Rubio added.

As the U.S. military carried out a daring operation to capture Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro, a second front opened up within minutes in the United States an information warfare, psychological and propaganda operation run by a hardened cell of self-described Marxist, socialist and communist leaders. For years, this cell has fomented anti-American hate in the U.S. under the cover of "anti-war" protests, rallying activists after the 9/11 attacks to condemn the U.S. response, appropriating "anti-racism" protests after the 2020 killing of George Floyd, marching with Antifa agitators, organizing antisemitic campus encampments after the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel by Hamas...

It was bad enough that ostensibly conservative political commentators Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens both have been the main drivers of a growing divide in the MAGA movement, through their obsession with demonizing Israel and the Jews. Now they have also become leading Western apologists for Islam. Are they even conservative? Were they ever? (Owens in particular has never been committed to anything but her own grift, not a political philosophy.) Conservatives are defenders; we preserve. Our mission, in large part, is to defend and preserve the liberties our forefathers earned for us. It is to defend and preserve the...

The U.S. government should NOT be giving $400 million to Ukraine—especially with Zelensky refusing to respond to the President on the peace deal. The Ukrainian government was just busted for public corruption, and you can guarantee money laundering is involved. The fact that Congress is still sending them funding is horrifying. This needs to be taken out of the NDAA.

The best way to support Israel while being 100% America First is for Israel to be sovereign and to call for an end to all US aid to Israel. A country with financial handcuffs cannot make decisions to preserve itself and ensure its survival if their funding is dependent on taking orders. A sovereign Israel that never takes aid from the US can respond to its hostile Islamic neighbors anyway it sees fit.The beauty of that is that it’s no longer going to be America’s concern.When we eventually cut off all aid to Israel, we will also be able to...

The most important thing to know about the Trump administration’s defense of its hotly contested use of tariffs to bring allies and opponents to heel is not that it is a novel and unprecedented legal argument but rather a full-throated articulation of the campaign themes that got the president elected – in both 2016 and 2000. In its legal documents, and in the oral arguments that took place before the Supreme Court Wednesday, the Trump administration paints a picture of America under siege. Once thriving industrial towns in the Midwest hollowed out. Factories dismantled as supply chains have been moved...

@infolibnews House Speaker Mike Johnson held a "private meeting" with AIPAC and Jewish leaders on Wednesday on Capitol Hill wherein he reportedly pledged to screen out "isolationist" (see: anti-Israel) GOP candidates "to prevent that wing of the party from growing larger in the House." Rep. Tim Walberg (R-MI), who was also part of the meeting, revealed "he’d been texting recently with Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt about the proliferation of antisemitic conspiracy theories about the killing of influencer Charlie Kirk," Jewish Insider reported.

President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that Russia is deliberately slowing its economic growth in order to suppress inflation. "As for the decline from more than 4% GDP growth: this is not a decline, it is a deliberate action. It is a slowdown in growth in exchange for curbing inflation and maintaining macroeconomic stability," Putin said during a televised meeting with top lawmakers. A graph published in Russian central bank's report earlier in September showed two consecutive quarters of gross domestic product (GDP) decline in quarter-on-quarter terms, aligning with the common definition of a technical recession.

As the anniversary of September 11 approaches, a lawsuit filed by the families of the victims of the Islamic terrorist attacks against the Saudis has been granted permission to move forward. Saudi Arabia along with Qatar and Iran were the three Islamic terrorist states seen as most complicit in September 11. One of the big missing pieces of the puzzle is the complicity of the FBI in covering up the role of Saudi Arabia. During the trial, a video emerged that the FBI had spent a lot of time hiding of Omar Al-Bayoumi, a Saudi agent, filming key landmarks in...

A Brief History of Tucker Carlson – From Conservative Star to Qatar’s Mouthpiece Following the passing of conservative legend Rush Limbaugh and the fall of Bill O’Reilly, Tucker Carlson emerged as a leading voice on the American right. His popularity soared during the COVID-19 pandemic, largely due to his anti-establishment rhetoric and combative style. For a time, he filled a vacuum in conservative media, channeling public frustration into high ratings for Fox News. However, Carlson’s trajectory shifted in 2023 when he was abruptly ousted from Fox News. The dismissal followed a series of controversies—including a high-profile lawsuit by a former...

Since January, Tucker Carlson has been funded by Qatar and has become an opponent of Trump. The journalist is part of an Arab influence strategy over North American media. 18/06/2025 by Editorial Team. Since the beginning of this year, American journalist Tucker Carlson, an icon of media conservatism, has started generating controversy due to a notable "ideological shift." According to various investigations, this is because Carlson is part of a Qatar influence strategy over American media. Official documents submitted to the U.S. Department of Justice under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) reveal Qatar's growing influence in strategic sectors of...

@RepMTG Nuclear-armed Israel is not hurting, and they've already proven that they are more than capable of not only defending themselves, but annihilating their enemies to the point of genocide. The reason why AIPAC is attacking me is because I dared to tell the truth. We’re $37 TRILLION in debt. I’m fighting for America’s future generations. AMERICA ONLY now.

Kremlin All But Admits Tucker Carlson Is a Useful Idiot. A spokesperson for the Russian government clarified that it has rejected requests to interview Vladimir Putin from reputable media outlets.

President Donald Trump said Monday the United States will send top-of-the-line weapons to NATO to support Ukraine in its war against Russia. "We're going to make top-of-the-line weapons, and they'll be sent to NATO," Trump said. Trump also said NATO members, not American taxpayers, would cover the cost of the weapons. Trump also said the U.S. will impose "very severe tariffs" on Russia in 50 days if there is no deal to stop the war in Ukraine. Sitting side by side with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte in the Oval Office, Trump told reporters that he is disappointed in Russian President...

Republican lawmakers are slamming the Trump administration’s decision to halt some U.S. missile and munitions shipments to Ukraine, warning it risks emboldening Russia at a pivotal point in the war.Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, co-chair of the Congressional Ukraine Caucus, said he would be “aggressively looking into this matter” following the White House’s acknowledgment that the Pentagon froze deliveries of critical air defense weapons due to concerns over shrinking U.S. stockpiles.“We must build up our own defense industrial base here in the U.S. while simultaneously providing the needed assistance to our allies who are defending their freedom from a brutal invading...

President Trump said Wednesday the United States may provide Ukraine with additional defensive missiles to intercept Russian air attacks. The president, speaking at a press conference in the Netherlands where he was attending a NATO summit, said Ukraine is seeking more Patriot missiles as the war with Russia drags on into a fourth year. “They do want to have the anti-missile missiles, as they call them, the Patriots. And we’re going to see if we can make some available,” Mr. Trump said. “You know, they’re very hard to get.” Mr. Trump said the U.S. is supplying Patriot missiles to Israel,...

I spent millions of my own money and TRAVELED THE ENTIRE COUNTRY campaigning for President Trump and his MAGA agenda and his promises. And Trump’s MAGA agenda included these key promises: NO MORE FOREIGN WARS. NO MORE REGIME CHANGE. WORLD PEACE. And THIS is what the people voted for. Only 6 months in and we are back into foreign wars, regime change, and world war 3. It feels like a complete bait and switch to please the neocons, warmongers, military industrial complex contracts, and neocon tv personalities that MAGA hates and who were NEVER TRUMPERS! After the bombs were dropped,...
