Significant overlaps of interest in Philip Zelikow’s roles The overlap is glaring, and once you look past the media fog it becomes obvious that the same type of figure was installed in both cases to manage the narrative and pre-empt genuine investigation. Philip Zelikow was not just some neutral academic parachuted in to provide intellectual clarity. He was the manager of perception on 9/11, and two decades later he resurfaced to perform the exact same function during Covid. 1. Narrative Control as the Central Function9/11 Commission: Zelikow wasn’t merely the “executive director.” He effectively wrote the outline of the final...

And it’s never coming back…“I’m so awesome I’m singlehandedly holding back the wave of long-anticipated-but-never-seeming-to-arrive-tidal-wave-of-white-male-right-wing-domestic-terrorism! I’m so noble, no one will ever know it was ME holding them back, getting them caught, defusing their bombs...because I’m so awesome!” - The SavantThis TV show needs to be preserved and kept in the Smithsonian as a benchmark of our strange times, in which ONE PARTICULAR NATIONAL POLITICAL PARTY was making EXTENSIVE USE of highly organized, violent, very dangerous and blatantly anti-American radical revolutionary groups loosely referred to as ANTIFA in order to try to DICTATE SOCIAL POLICY via threat against the public...

GoFundMe has terminated pro-Charlie Kirk fundraisers. Presumably, however, not only will they not allow peaceful pro-Charlie Kirk fundraisers, but they actively support violence against Charlie Kirk memorials. Two sisters destroyed a memorial to the assassinated Kirk as they launched expletives at those who mourned. One was fired for her violence and hate toward mourners for a victim of assassination.

Conversation Derrick Evans @DerrickEvans4WV A woman 23–25 weeks pregnant, is now on a ventilator from liver failure—she was trying to “prove Trump wrong” about Tylenol & autism because of a TT trend. Doctors say they do NOT expect her to survive. It’s sad that someone could be this brainwashed

A federal judge handed down a stiff sentence to a man who turned political rage into arson, and it matters. Casey Robert Goonan was sentenced to nearly 20 years in prison after a string of firebombings and arsons in the Bay Area. The court applied a terrorism enhancement, and the result should remind anyone tempted by violent activism that the system takes these attacks seriously. On June 1, Goonan placed a bag of six incendiary devices under a UC Police Department patrol car near the UC Berkeley campus, an act caught on surveillance video. Ten days later he attacked an...

On Monday, President Donald Trump issued an advisory for pregnant women to refrain from taking Tylenol or at the very least cut back on their intake of it as a precaution due to a possible link between acetaminophen (Tylenol) and autism.The reaction to this announcement by the Associated Press that same day displayed an obvious animus that Science was dying. This fury was reflected in the headline of the AP story by Ali Swenson and Lauran Neergaard: "Trump makes unfounded claims about Tylenol and repeats discredited link between vaccines and autism."

Governor Gavin Newsom went on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert last night, which was not the most-watched late night show Tuesday that Trump has gotten canceled, or almost canceled. "Cards on the table: You wish you were on Kimmel tonight," Colbert said, opening his interview with Governor Gavin Newsom on the Late Show Tuesday. "I wish I was on Kimmel tonight," he added. This was Newsom's first interview with Colbert since way back during the Colbert Report days, and Colbert's former mock-conservative on-air persona did not take kindly to then-Mayor Gavin Newsom and his liberal ideas. Tuesday's exchange was...

The Department of War will ask President Donald Trump for final approval to execute the Fort Hood shooter, Nidal Hasan, a DOW official told the Daily Caller News Foundation exclusively. The execution, if approved by Trump, would be the first carried out by the military since 1961. Hasan, a former Army Major and psychiatrist turned radical Islamic terrorist, killed 13 people and wounded 32 others during his notorious rampage on the Army base in 2009. “I am 100 percent committed to ensuring the death penalty is carried out for Nidal Hasan,” Hegseth exclusively told the DCNF. “This savage terrorist deserves...

The REAL Politically Savvy 🇺🇸 @patriot_savvy 🔥 RADICAL Abigail Spanberger 🔥 Calling for her supporters to “LET THE RAGE FUEL YOU” There is a wave of left wing violence hitting the country and the Democrat candidate for Governor is calling for RAGE?! Absolutely disgusting and irresponsible. The Democrats are the party of hate, rage, and violence

VIDEOHe started out going full "Elbows Up!" against Trump to get elected Prime Minister of Canada. Unfortunately for Canada, Mark Carney has morphed into a hapless Elmer Fudd. Even his hunched over body posture reflects this especially when he is in the presence of President Donald Trump. And the latest news which adds into his image as a pathetic "Elbows DOWN!" Elmer Fudd is the announcement by a Canadian energy infrastructure company that they will be investing $8.5 BILLION to develop energy infrastructure ...in the United States.

I saw Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk’s widow speak at his memorial on Sunday. She was magnificent. She promised to keep Charlie’s mission going. I pray that she is able to. But those are some big shoes to fill… One never knows for sure beforehand, but I think Charlie Kirk’s assassination may be something of a tipping point in American politics and culture, or, at a minimum, an inflection point. Why? Because Charlie wasn’t a radical, he wasn’t a firebrand, he wasn’t a bomb thrower… No, Charlie was—in a relative sense—a lamb. And now, that lamb has been slaughtered. While Charlie...

A registered Democrat mother in New Jersey is going viral after posting a TikTok video admitting she had her political “turning point” the day her 11-year-old daughter came home from school saying she hated Charlie Kirk—without even knowing who he was. The video, posted by user @kryssaqt with the caption “What was your turning point?”, exposes the shocking level of indoctrination happening inside America’s classrooms. For years, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk warned parents about what schools were doing to their children. Now, tragically, after Kirk’s assassination, one lifelong Democrat mother says she’s finally seeing it for herself. In...

On Saturday, September 20, 2025, hundreds of people gathered at Patriots’ Corner, where Imperial Highway intersects with Yorba Linda Boulevard in Yorba Linda, California, to take part in a candlelight vigil for Turning Point USA founder and president Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated on September 10. Leandra Blades, a trustee on the board of the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District served as the master of ceremonies

Meanwhile, a new poll shows a majority of voters believe it’s appropriate to fire employees who celebrate Charlie Kirk’s murder online. ============================================================= A week’s vacation from his “comedy” show didn’t make Jimmy Kimmel any funnier, less bitter, or more likeable. In fact, the late-night host returned to Jimmy Kimmel Live! Tuesday — on fewer ABC local affiliate stations — sounding more partisan and petulant than ever. Kimmel offered no apology for the lies he told about Charlie Kirk’s assassination, comments that earned him an “indefinite,” short-lived suspension from his corporate bosses. The poster-child for Trump Derangement Syndrome thumbed his nose...

Back in February, a Turkish refugee named Hamit Coskun decided to protest Islam by burning a Quran outside the Turkish Embassy in London. Coskun is an atheist who left Turkey in 2022 to flee government persecution. As he stood outside the embassy, a crazed Muslim named Moussa Kadri, attacked him with a knife while shouting "I'm going to kill you." The entire incident was captured on video. [Warning: The Religion of Peace] https://x.com/i/status/1970548029024543034 Months later, the judge in the case has allowed Kadri to go free. That's right, the psycho knife-wielder who tried to kill a guy for insulting his...

If you read the latest Trump Truth (that is what he calls his posts on Truth Social) that is posted above, you will come to the reasonable conclusion that Trump has either changed his position on the war in Ukraine and accepted the delusional beliefs of General Kellogg or he is engaged in some massive sarcasm. Well, based on what happened subsequently at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), it looks like Trump was doing sarcasm. Following Trump’s meeting with Zelensky, France, Germany, the UK, and Ukraine proposed a resolution to the UNSC that called for an immediate ceasefire in...

I talk a lot about the Founding Fathers but you should not think that this means I forgot about our Founding Mothers. In the early 1900s, an effort was made to catalog early prominent women in the U.S. and the British Colonies. The result of that effort is a three-volume set, "The Pioneer Mothers of America". Here we have the release of the first volume, which covers the years prior to the 1700s and some of the early 1700s. The second volume contains the bulk of our Founding Mothers and many of the Wives of the Signers, however this book...

Federal agents executing a search warrant at the downtown office of former National Security Adviser John Bolton in late August seized a cache of documents marked as classified, according to court documents. The office mission was the second such search conducted by the FBI following an early-morning raid at Bolton's home. The application for the warrant at his office, according to the filing, was to search for "evidence of a crime" and to locate potential "contraband, fruits of crime, or other items illegally possessed." An inventory of the property taken at Bolton's office indicates several electronic devices, as well as...

Today’s left has mastered the art of self-delusion. These people have gone totally off the “reality rails.” But nothing proves this more than the “Queers for Palestine” crowd. These are the Antifa-style activists who spend all day sneering at Christianity, yet trip all over themselves to defend Muslims – a religion and culture that wants absolutely nothing to do with them. It’s beyond absurd. Christianity might offend them, but Islam would imprison them, beat them, or worse – kill them – for simply being who they are. And yet, they still carry water for all things Muslim. Talk about Stockholm...
