🚨 JUST IN: FBI Director Kash Patel announces a stunning +490% SURGE in arrests of online child predators, the location of 6,200 missing children, and the arrest of 300 human traffickers
I VOTED FOR THIS! Protect the children and destroy crime nationwide 🇺🇸
Patel also confirmed a 112% surge in violent offender arrests, a -20% plummet it homicides and robberies, and seizing enough fentanyl to kill 178M Americans @RapidResponse47 @FBIDirectorKash

This is huge! Keep pushing!

Remember this op? Pushed by the same people telling you that Iran was "no threat"?

490% surge in arrests of child predators.

Another narrative destroyed

What was the FBI doing for four years under Biden?

Oh right -- they were diverting anti-terrorism assets to try to frame the president of the United States.

James Comey subpoenaed in alleged "grand conspiracy" against Trump

Former FBI Director James Comey has been subpoenaed in the wide-ranging "grand conspiracy" case against the ex-officials who investigated and prosecuted President Trump, two sources with knowledge of the situation tell Axios.
Why it matters: The investigation has produced more than 130 subpoenas since cranking up last year, the sources say, and targets top officials who worked under former presidents Obama and Biden.
The officials, including Comey, have all decried the investigation as political persecution and lawfare.
Zoom in: The Trump administration's grand conspiracy theory posits that Democratic officials bent the rules, broke the law and lied under oath to investigate, prosecute and otherwise undermine Trump from his election in 2016 through his federal indictments in 2023.
The Comey subpoena, issued last week, relates to his alleged role in the drafting of a January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) concerning Russia's election interference that favored Trump.
The assessment referenced the now-widely discredited Steele Dossier, whose inclusion "ran counter to fundamental tradecraft principles and ultimately undermined the credibility of a key judgment," according to a "Tradecraft Review" completed in June under Trump's current CIA director, John Ratcliffe.
Ratcliffe then referred Comey and former CIA director John Brennan for prosecution.

This is when the Deep State messed up...
The Mar-a-lago raid by the Biden (Obama) Administration was part of the ongoing Russiagate conspiracy.
This opened the door for a grand jury in Florida and not in the safety of DC.

The Oscars, which mocked Turning Point USA's Super Bowl halftime show, got lower ratings than the TPUSA halftime show.
TPUSA's Halftime Show got 25 million household views. The Oscars got 17.9 million views.
The American people are done being lectured by out-of-touch elites.

I wonder why. Maybe it has something to do with Hollywood showering awards on the progressive vanity project, the explicitly pro-antifa terrorism One Battle After Another.

Which by the way, bombed, ironically enough.

Ann Coulter
@AnnCoulter
Liel Leibovitz in the Free Press: "As a work of art, One Battle After Another is irredeemable. It feels like the sort of thing written by a committee of socialist college sophomores cracking each other up ...
"Paul Thomas Anderson seems interested more in purring for his fellow progressives than in making interesting movies ..."

CNN whines that they've heard reports that Trump may require banks to verify the citizenship status of customers, to insist in immigration control.

New left-wing/reich-wing darling Joe Kent: Trump bombed Iran because Israel was secretly behind the 2024 assassination attempt and he knows that Bibi will wack him unless he does what Bibi says.

Are the seminar calls going to tell me I'm "selling out" for saying he's a left-wing flake with strong Nazi sympathies?

On @wethefifth yesterday, I said I suspect these people have slices of mental illness.

Kent speculates that Israel tried to assassinate Trump – the most pro-Israel president in history, with a town named after him – in order to… what? Install President Kamala Harris?

If it’s… https://t.co/e31ylM7mR3

BTW, apparently he claimed that he had Secret Information about the Jewish Plot to Kill Trump that he wanted to share with the FBI. Dan Bongino says that's a lie, he specifically told this Nazi Flake that he would personally brief him on the facts of the Butler assassination attempt, and hear his Interesting Theory if he wanted to share it, but he never did.

Apparently Kent wavers between thinking Israel told Crooks to kill Trump and that Iran told Crooks to kill Trump.

But he's got the Secret Facts, yannow.

Dan Bongino demolishes Joe Kent AKA Vindman 2.0 on Butler, reveals he offered Kent a briefing but Kent never took it.
"I want you to know something. I offered Joe face-to-face and you know it, Joe, don't bullsh*t people. I offered him a briefing on Butler. Did he show up the FBI headquarters to take it? No way. He did not. That's a fact, bro. You are a liar and a bullsh*tter. And you know it. I offered you that briefing and you didn't take it. You have hidden knowledge about something that happened at Butler? He's got hidden knowledge, folks. Amazing. The president, he was shot in the head. in Butler. He was shot in the head. No one spoke out more about the secret service failures in me. My first week on the job, I had the case agent in my office with an entire team, including a former secret service agent, briefing me about Butler. You know something? Spit it out! Grow a pair! Spit it out! You got some hidden knowledge?
You see the grift though? Well, we don't know nothing. I know something. Black box, I got it. Watch my podcast. The FBI examined 35 accounts linked to Crooks. I thought we didn't analyze anything. I thought they told me that I thought they said that. Including social media, bank and other online accounts. But we don't know nothing. We don't know nothing about nothing. Amazing by the way, how keep this up. The same people out there, clan of people who were telling you out there that Iran's no threat can constantly tell you or imply at least that Iran was behind this kid produced no evidence. They tell you they know something and then they go but Iran's no threat. You just implied Iran tried to shoot Trump at with through this kid. Which story is it mother? Which story is it? Get your story straight. We don't have any evidence of that.
Yes, Iran wants to kill Trump. Yes, this kid is a lunatic. It happens all the time a sadly. John Hinkley, Arthur Bremer, people lose their minds and do stupid stuff. Here's another more from this article. You guys can read it yourself. The home was completely swept, every device was collected and accessed. There were reports out there say we didn't get into certain devices. That's false. That is just made up. Joe would have known that if he would have read the article or just showed up at our office. "
He is just Alexander Vindman 2.0. He is a liar and has zero credibility.
Take everything he said last night and dump it in the garbage.

"I know Iran doesn't want a nuke because it said it doesn't want a nuke"

_-_
In the low-minded, it might be a racial thing, but the actual term they keep using is Zionist. The claim is that the Zionists themselves are Christian, Jewish, and atheist and actually have ill intent for the US, Jews, Christians, AND Israel. They are only using the "Greater Israel" idea to gain control of the Middle East. The overall intent being depopulation and control of the remainder. I think I have the characterization of the idea close to what "they" are saying. In summary, the idea is that it is all about control and de-population, and they don't actually care at all about Jewish people other than "How can we use them?"
That is the substance of what I am hearing. Not my ideas, I really don't think I understand the big picture here, really. About once a decade something happens that upends a lot of how I think the world works

Havocs, Mitchells, and Beaufighters turned eight transports and eight destroyers into wrecks. Rabaul got four of the destroyers back.

Pappy Gun and the NAA rep Fox produced the D-1 modification for the B-25s that saw FOUR .50 cal machine guns mounted in the bombardier glass and a further FOUR .50s mounted on the sides in package guns. The A-20 Havocs got a similar modification.

This air attack saw the use of skip bombing to bounce the bombs into the targets. This was the last large-scale attempt by the Japanese to resupply their forces in New Guines.

What are examples of U.S. media bias in war reporting?

U.S. media bias in war reporting often includes framing conflicts in a way that prioritizes certain perspectives, such as depicting Israeli actions as self-defense while downplaying Palestinian suffering. Additionally, coverage may reflect a double standard, with more attention given to wars in Europe compared to those in poorer regions, leading to a perception that violence is more acceptable elsewhere.

Much of this innovation came not from designers in factories, but from crews and engineers improvising in remote bases.

Paul “Pappy” Gunn, a former airline mechanic turned combat engineer, became a driving force behind these modifications, turning the bomber into a true gunship.

Besides a strafer B-25J had eight .50s in the nose, TEN if the top turret gunner locked his turret forward. There is overkill and then there is REAL overkill.

The XB-26K Counter Invader weighs in. It had 8 .50s in the nose and 6 .50s in the wings.

- no roman order in the beginning battle

- the coliseum is NO WHERE near that big. I mean, you stand inside it and the movie is just laughable.

- Marcus Aurelius did not want to restore the republic. NO ONE wanted to restore the republic. By the time of the Antonines any family who might have even thought about republican sympathies had been purged by someone or other.

- Marcus also chose Commodus. He was exceptionally gifted, both as an administrator, writer and general- but he passed power to his son- even though everyone knew he was a psychopath.

This opened the door for a grand jury in Florida and not in the safety of DC.

By the time Marcus died at 180 AD, the Republic had been gone for about 225 or more years at a minimum and had been pretty dysfunctional before that. The modern restore the Republic trope in Rome was just a lot of wishcasting. the "Republic" tended to have mystery mobs massacre people they didn't like with mobs.
