A well-funded group of anti-Trump conservatives has sent its donors a remarkably candid memo that reveals how resilient former President Donald Trump has been against millions of dollars of negative ads the group deployed against him in two early-voting states. The political action committee, called Win It Back, has close ties to the influential fiscally conservative group Club for Growth. It has already spent more than $4 million trying to lower Trump’s support among Republican voters in Iowa and nearly $2 million more trying to damage him in South Carolina. But in the memo — dated Thursday and obtained by...

Because I’m a stickler for getting to the root of things, and will always follow up on important issues as they develop, I wanted to start with a continuation of a previous line. In one of the last reports we talked about the potential mobilizations on both sides, troop numbers, and how that relates to upcoming conflict developments in the medium-term future. I related how there had been new indication that Russia’s newly recruited 300k force would be used to rotate the previously mobilized troops from September-October of 2022. However State Duma Chairman Andrey Kartapolov has now put speculation to...

Gold Star father Mark Schmitz had harsh words towards President Biden Tuesday for his response to the terrorist attack in Kabul, Afghanistan that killed 13 service members in August 2021. Testimony before House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Gold Star dad and father of a US Marine killed during the terrorist attack at the Kabul airport in Afghanistan exploded at Joe Biden on Tuesday, saying he is a “disgrace to this nation” and has “more American blood” on his hands “than any president in US history.” Mark Schmitz, the father of Marine Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz, who was killed in a bomb blast on Aug. 26, 2021, during a military evacuation at the Kabul airport, participated in a roundtable discussion before the House Foreign Affairs Committee. “Not a single person has been held accountable,” Schmitz said. “Our so-called...

In the two weeks between the fall of Kabul to the Taliban on August 15, 2021, and the final U.S. military flight out of Afghanistan on August 30, Pentagon officials were scrambling with the White House to finalize the Department of Defense Climate Adaptation Plan, a document that declares climate change a major national...

Every piece of information that emerges from Biden’s shameful retreat in Afghanistan somehow manages to be worse than the last. This detail comes from a Franklin Foer article in the Atlantic based on interviews with insiders. Foer is the man you call for an establishment whitewash and that’s what this is. But even the information that slips out between the lines reveals some incredible details. A big part of what made the Kabul evacuation so disastrous is that the Taliban were allowed to take the city. The Biden administration sent Gen. Frank McKenzie to negotiate with the Taliban as the...

Rudy Giuliani intends to turn himself in Wednesday on charges alleging he and others attempted to thwart the 2020 election results in Georgia, according to a source close to Giuliani who is familiar with the arrangement. A lawyer for Giuliani expects to meet with the Fulton District Attorney earlier Wednesday to establish bond conditions, the source said. After the bond is set, Giuliani will surrender at the same Atlanta jail where two of the 19 defendants charged in the case turned themselves in Tuesday. Giuliani will be accompanied by former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik, the source said....

Abbey Gate, Hamid Karzai International Airport, Kabul, Afghanistan — Aug. 26, 2021The crowd was packed shoulder to shoulder. Every man, woman, and child shouted and waved pieces of paper — their contents indiscernible — in frantic attempts to gain the attention of the U.S. Marines and Air Force special operators standing on the wall above them. The promise of a new life lay just beyond the Americans guarding the gates. Sunset was less than an hour away, but the temperature exceeded 90 degrees Fahrenheit, and the air was filled with the stench of sweat and human excrement from the desperate...

The U.S. government is preparing evacuation plans for American citizens living in Taiwan, three sources told The Messenger. The planning has been underway for at least six months and “it’s heated up over the past two months or so,” said a senior U.S. intelligence official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to discuss the planning.

“If you come into this house, love one another,” he added. “If you’re an a**hole, there are plenty of other places on lower Broadway.”“In my existence, one a**hole can turn the whole tide down there,” Brooks continued. “My thing is, let’s create a place that you feel safe in.”Brooks also said he wanted make his bar a place where a person can “feel good” and “safe.”

On April 24, media outlet Politico reported that U.S. President Joe Biden’s administration is “quietly preparing for the possibility” that Ukraine’s much-touted offensive against Russia does not ensure the “total victory” Kyiv wanted, according to unnamed officials. Publicly, the Deep State neocons in Biden’s administration have backed Ukrainian efforts in its conflict with Russia, promising to supply Kyiv with weapons and economic aid for “as long as it takes.” U.S. officials have emphasized that they are trying their best to ensure Ukraine’s spring offensive succeeds. “We’ve nearly completed the requests of what [Ukraine] said they needed for the counteroffensive as...

Nineteen months ago, the last U.S. soldier was lifted out of Afghanistan, but hundreds of Americans were left behind in a country overrun by the Taliban and abandoned by President Biden. Yet in a recent press conference, Pentagon Spokesperson John Kirby had the audacity to state that he was proud of the withdrawal from Afghanistan. This followed the release of a report from the Biden administration that lays the blame for this withdrawal at the feet of President Trump, taking little to no responsibility. This is a sign of failed leadership. President Biden seems to forget that a year and...

The Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) “strongest-ever” vehicle emissions standards designed to drive mass adoption of electric cars within a decade will increase the United States’ dependence on China, experts warn.“It benefits the Chinese Communist Party because they control the critical minerals supply chain that is going to be necessary to build out the batteries for those electric vehicles,” said Mandy Gunasekara, director of the Center for Energy and Conservation at Independent Women’s Forum, a conservative think tank, in an April 17 interview with The Epoch Times.Gunasekara served as chief of staff in the EPA under former President Donald Trump.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · 3h These Morons in the White House, who are systematically destroying our Country, headed up by the biggest Moron of them all, Hopeless Joe Biden, have a new disinformation game they are playing - Blame “TRUMP” for their grossly incompetent SURRENDER in Afghanistan. I watched this disaster unfold just like everyone else. I saw them take out the Military FIRST, GIVE $85 Billion of military equipment, allow killing of our soldiers, and leave Americans behind. Biden is responsible, no one else!

The White House on Thursday released its review of President Biden's fumbled withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, dropping the long-awaited report days before the Easter holiday while former President Donald Trump's indictment dominates headlines. In a 12-page outline, Biden officials defend the president's decision to withdraw, calling his decision to end the two decades-long war "the right thing for the country." The report does not appear to acknowledge any mistakes made by Biden. However, the document repeatedly criticizes the Trump administration for constraining the conditions of American evacuation, during which 13 American soldiers died in a suicide bombing while protecting...

Former President Donald Trump, who is running for re-election in 2024, on Thursday released a video statement calling for “peace without delay” in Ukraine and for ending the “entire globalist Neo-Con establishment.”“Every day this proxy battle in Ukraine continues, we risk global war. We must be absolutely clear that our objective is to IMMEDIATELY have a total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need PEACE without delay,” he said in the video, according to a transcript.#AGENDA47: President Trump on the difference between the globalist establishment class, and those who are truly committed...

“Every day this proxy battle in Ukraine continues, we risk global war,” President Trump said. “We must be absolutely clear that our objective is to IMMEDIATELY have a total cessation of hostilities. All shooting has to stop. This is the central issue. We need PEACE without delay.” “There must also be a complete commitment to dismantling the entire globalist neo-con establishment that is perpetually dragging us into endless wars, pretending to fight for freedom and democracy abroad, while they turn us into a third-world country and a third-world dictatorship right here at home. The State Department, the defense bureaucracy, the...
