3:17 Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) reportedly gave President Joe Biden an ultimatum: bow out of the presidential race “the easy way or the hard way.” Politico reported Monday, a day after Biden’s announcement that he would step aside as the presumptive 2024 Democrat presidential nominee, that the former Speaker and still top Democrat powerbroker put her foot down after weeks of Biden publicly insisting he would plow forward with his campaign despite major fallout from his disastrous debate performance on June 27. “Nancy made clear that they could do this the easy way or the hard way,” one...

Big Intel: How the CIA and FBI Went from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Villains I don't usually post videos, but this one is an eye opener.

The Department of Homeland Security has opened an investigation after the Secret Service catastrophically failed to protect former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania last weekend. Trump narrowly escaped death after a bullet went through his ear while he was speaking at a lectern. The shooter was positioned on an unsecured roof just 140 yards away from the stage. The DHS Inspector General has also opened an investigation. Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill have also launched separate investigations and have called on Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle to testify on Monday, July 22. According to House...

Former Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that the Supreme Court ruling in Donald Trump’s presidential immunity case meant “we no longer live in a democracy because we no longer have a functioning court system.” Dean said, “The court system is a critical part of the three-legged school of democracy. This court has lost its legitimacy. So we no longer have a court system that’s, in my view, a legitimate court system. They were appointed with lots and lots of money from The Federalist Society. Two of them are clearly corrupt and taking money...

Rep. Joe Morelle (D-N.Y.) said Monday he will introduce a constitutional amendment to reverse the Supreme Court ruling issued Monday, which largely shields former presidents from criminal prosecution for actions in office. “I will introduce a constitutional amendment to reverse SCOTUS’ harmful decision and ensure that no president is above the law. This amendment will do what SCOTUS failed to do—prioritize our democracy,” Morelle wrote on the social platform X.

Opponents of Donald J. Trump are drafting potential lawsuits in case he is elected in November and carries out mass deportations, as he has vowed. One group has hired a new auditor to withstand any attempt by a second Trump administration to unleash the Internal Revenue Service against them. Democratic-run state governments are even stockpiling abortion medication. A sprawling network of Democratic officials, progressive activists, watchdog groups and ex-Republicans has been taking extraordinary steps to prepare for a potential second Trump presidency, drawn together by the fear that Mr. Trump’s return to power would pose a grave threat not just...

After several decades of conservative control of the Supreme Court and a string of rulings against their legislative and social priorities, Democrats and left-leaning media appear to be mounting an all-out assault against the judicial branch, casting doubt on its legitimacy and impartiality, while working to undercut the reputations and credibility of its more conservative justices.Ostensibly conservative since the appointment of Chief Justice William Rehnquist in 1986, the court has generally not attracted comparable partisan scrutiny to the extent that it has under the Biden administration. The Roberts court, however, currently boasts three justices appointed by former President Donald Trump,...

A report by a Native American-led nonprofit group claims indigenous homelands were taken by Colorado, and the state reaped mountains of money through that action. The report shares about the apparent “dispossession” of $1.7 trillion worth of the indigenous homelands by the state and the United States, according to an Associated Press (AP) article published Friday. The outlet noted the report was compiled by the Truth, Restoration, and Education Commission (TREC). In addition, the report claims that Colorado gained nearly $550 million in mineral extraction from those homelands. The AP article continued:

A member of the Federal Election Commission testified to Congress on Thursday that the Manhattan district attorney who led the prosecution of former President Donald Trump overstepped his authority. Trey Trainor, a Trump-appointed commissioner who once served as FEC chairman, said during a hearing that District Attorney Alvin Bragg, an elected Democrat, inappropriately incorporated a federal election campaign law into his charges against Trump.“Bragg has effectively usurped the jurisdiction that this Congress has explicitly reserved for federal authorities,” Trainor said during a House Judiciary Committee hearing. “This overreach sets a troubling precedent for politicization of legal proceedings at the state...

Former Obama Director of National Intelligence James Clapper says he would not retract the letter he signed about first son Hunter Biden's laptop. In 2020, Clapper along with 51 other officials signed a letter saying that Hunter Biden's "laptop from hell" was Russian disinformation. When Clapper recently was asked if he would retract the letter he signed, he told Fox News in a one word answer, "no."

A US, UK, and European government-backed Ukrainian publication called “Data Journalism Agency” (TEXTY) has released a new report labeling hundreds of Americans as adversaries due to their refusals to endorse more war and more funding for the Ukrainian government. Titled “Roller Coaster: From Trumpists to Communists,” the report identifies top U.S. politicians, journalists, and social media influencers, claiming all the individuals and organizations in question are Russian propaganda tools. The list includes former President Donald J. Trump, the Real America’s Voice network, Laura Loomer, Jack Posobiec, Ben Shapiro, Ron DeSantis, Matt Gaetz, RFK Jr, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, Tucker Carlson,...

In the days and weeks leading up to January 6, the nation's highest-ranking military officer, then-Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley, was moving in lockstep with the political anxieties of top Democratic leaders. These Democrats grew anxious as over 140 House Republicans planned to contest the election results during the electoral college certification that day. Milley was then deeply engaged with a circle of confidants including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, former Obama National Security Advisor Susan Rice, and former Defense Secretary Robert Gates, among others—all of whom shared a unified disdain...

MSNBC analyst Donny Deutsch on Friday urged the military to release an ad campaign against former President Donald Trump ahead of the upcoming presidential election. Trump is beating President Joe Biden in the five crucial swing states of Nevada, Georgia, Arizona, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, according to a May New York Times/Siena College survey. Deutsch suggested on “Morning Joe” that if former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, former Secretary of Defense James Mattis, former National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley release an ad campaign, it could help turn voters...

Wednesday morning. His comments were wrapped in platitudes but cut against the American people’s right to freedom of speech. He could not be more wrong. McRaven claims that those who criticize government institutions “undermine America.” "Undermining America” is a serious charge. And when it comes from a four-star admiral who commanded the entire United States Special Operations Command, you can bet that it carries some clout among those who are wielding power. For these reasons, McRaven’s comments merit close scrutiny. ... McRaven began, not by answering the question, but instead by making sure that his political views got out there....

A new article published in Rolling Stone magazine Monday accused the United States Supreme Court of being controlled by “right-wing” dark money interests. “The Most Ridiculous, Right-Wing Supreme Court That Dark Money Could Buy,” reads the headline.The magazine’s official X account wrote, “The Supreme Court has been successfully captured by right-wing, dark money interests. The result: a court that’s in your body, working to elect Donald Trump, and in-your-face corrupt.”The author, Andrew Perez, claimed SCOTUS has reshaped “our laws and society according to their reactionary, far-right vision” over the past twenty years.Touching on the fact that the court currently has...

The left’s legal-industrial complex is targeting battleground Wisconsin ahead of the 2024 elections. Democratic election lawyer Marc Elias and friends sue in both state and federal court, groping around for courts friendly to their arguments. The newly elected Wisconsin Supreme Court is proving to be just that, but an Obama appointed federal judge has proven less hospitable Recently, the Wisconsin Supreme Court heard arguments about whether Wisconsin law allows the return of an absentee ballot to unmanned drop boxes. The rules never mention drop boxes, but the Left is trying to impose them just two years after the exact same...

VA Hospital in Orlando has an LGBTQ+ Pride flag in place of an American flag:

Democrats are so desperate to keep the Supreme Court from torpedoing their lawfare efforts against former President Donald Trump that members like Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., are openly vowing to launch a coordinated attack on the judicial branch if they don’t get their way. Last week, The New York Times published a smear piece on Justice Samuel Alito “to indict the conservative judge as a partisan ideologue corrupted by far-right politics” all because an “Appeal to Heaven” flag flew outside his New Jersey beach home last year, my colleague Tristan Justice explained. The story came days after another hit piece...
