Expect Putin to pay big-time for trolling Trump

If Putin really wants war, is the West willing to fight one?? - Post Editorial Board
At their Alaska summit, Putin gave Trump renewed hope for a peace deal on the Ukraine war — but that’s now looking like Lucy setting up Charlie Brown for another football humiliation...
  • Bloviating on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Lavrov announced, “There is no meeting planned,” and none will happen without advance agreement that fits Putin’s “presidential agenda.”
  • And that agenda is “not ready at all”: Ukraine must publicly agree it will never join NATO, Zelensky must repeal laws that Lavrov claims ban “the Russian language” and concede in advance on “territorial issues” Lavrov wouldn’t specify...

Winning!

Social media experts are also warning about the impact of social media on youth mental health. Former U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy called it the “defining public health challenge of our times.” Even teens (48%) report that social media sites have a mostly negative effect on their peers.

These numbers demand wholesale and urgent changes.

FBI raids John Bolton's home in national security investigation * WorldNetDaily * by Wallace White, Daily Caller News Foundation

FBI raids John Bolton's home in national security investigation * WorldNetDaily * by Wallace White, Daily Caller News Foundation

"This is related to a national security investigation of Mr. Bolton that was shut down by the Biden administration for political reasons," a source familiar with the raid told Daily Caller editorial director Vince Coglianese. "It involves stealing classified documents and weaponizing them for political purposes. Kash Patel and Dan Bongino have reopened the investigation. Hence this morning's raid."

Anne Applebaum: The Real Reason Why Putin Keeps Refusing a Ceasefire

The SWAMP bet big he'd never get in power again!---Retribution, Unfinished Business, or Something Else? - American Thinker - Clarice Feldman

This week, the FBI conducted a seven- or eight-hour raid on former National Security Advisor John Bolton’s home and his office. - Clarice Feldman
(Unlike raids such as those the Biden administration conducted against Trump, his employees, advisors, and associates, no press was alerted and engaged, so reports are from bystanders who videotaped it on their cell phones.) 
  • Is the raid on John Bolton’s home retribution
  • Revival of a dormant case against him for mishandling national security? 
  • Something more sinister?...
Actually, I think there’s far more to it than mere retribution...

Good news and fascinating back story!-----Five eyes dimming - Thomas Lifson

And the Deep State takes it on the chin - Thomas Lifson 
The “Five Eyes” intelligence sharing arrangement has put the United States’ hundred billion dollar+ intelligence budget at the service of the UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, vastly benefitting the intelligence agencies of Anglosphere allies.
But, to the shock of many, the Trump administration is cutting them out of key areas of interest...
  • In concert with Deep State operatives embedded in the US intel community, spooks from half of the other four members collaborated in trying to bring down President Trump’s first campaign and then successfully hobble his first term in office...
  • But beyond any animus, there is absolutely no strategic reason for President Trump to favor the other four eyes when it comes to complete and honest intelligence sharing. That’s something of great value and making it a “gimme” for other Anglo-Saxon players diminishes our bargaining leverage...
Five Eyes won’t cease to exist tomorrow, of course; Most of the routines will continue until further notice. And no doubt there is plenty of benefit to the US. 
But those other four aren’t automatically seeing everything.
It’s the end of an era.

The revamp is profound. They reject well-established practices of math instruction while infusing lessons with racial and gender themes. The goal is to motivate disadvantaged students while dispensing with the traditional features of math — like numerical computation, which they struggle with on standardized tests — considered an oppressive feature of white supremacist culture.

Congressional Budget Office: Trump's tariffs can cut deficits by $4 TRILLION! * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

President Donald Trump's agenda to use tariffs to push for fair trade deals, raise revenue for America and support U.S.-based business and industry sparked the first monthly trade surplus in years. In happened when the surplus was reported at $27 billion, just weeks ago. And the longer term impact appears to be even brighter.

The laws have been LAWS for decades. The dems have been stealing elections for decades!

 


Victor Davis Hanson - What Is the Democratic Alternative to Trump? | RealClearPolitics

The Pavlovian Left goes berserk at the mere prospect of each new Trump initiative. -  Victor Davis Hanson
Its escalating reactive venom and hysteria are calibrated to the success of Trump's latest policy.
  • Yet the new hard-left Democratic Party offers no counter-agenda to explain its furor. 
  • Still less do Democrats attempt bipartisan efforts to craft shared legislation.
Take foreign policy...

A reminder of what the media is hiding.

 


Jihad update: The UK Goes Orwell

The UK Goes Orwell: Rather than blocking pornography, the Online Safety Act was used to block videos of parliamentary debates about the Muslim sex grooming gang crisis in the UK.  - Dave Agema
Not only wasn’t the Online Safety Act protecting children from being exposed to sexual content, it was being used to censor revelations about the complicity of the authorities in the sexual abuse of children. 
It’s gov’t mandated what Britains can see. 
  • It’s control of the media protecting Muslim atrocities...
Much more!

No matter how often journalists or so-called “climate scientists” repeat the lie that summers are becoming more extreme in the U.S., it doesn’t make their claims true.

The chart below shows the annual average number of days with daily maximum temperatures ≥95°F, ≥100°F and ≥105°F at all 828 NOAA USHCNd stations with at least 100 years of daily data. ðŸŒ¡️

The trend is markedly down.
