John Solomon Interviews President Donald Trump


Posted originally on CTH on July 16, 2025 | Sundance

As lead operative and narrative engineer on the ‘tick-tock’ effort, John Solomon has once again pushed his way to the front of the narrative engineering effort.  As a genuinely glowing Solomon picks up the flag of attention, many people once again start to follow the shiny thing into the dead end of DC silos.

After a few weeks of heavy firing for effect, the people around President Trump, also glowing, organize an interview.  John Solomon and Amanda Head then conduct an interview with President Trump.  {Direct Rumble Link Here}

PRESIDENT TRUMP INTERVIEW

John Solomon used to write for The Hill, until the people within the editorial team began to label all of Solomon’s reporting as “opinion” regardless of the content.  Solomon then went freelance as a journalist (backing undetermined) until eventually ending up with RealAmerica’sVoice.

Solomon’s primary source of information before and during Term-1 was Mark Meadows.  Meadows fed Solomon information from his position in the House of Representatives, then from his position in the Trump administration.

Within the information control space, when you understand how “positioning” takes place, you start to notice patterns.  Solomon fits a pattern of controlled information release and tradecraft.  Notice how Solomon steers the conversation back to the FBI over and over again.

“If the FBI choose to _______, would you support?”…  It is a repeating pattern.   Once you see it, you can never return to that moment in the pantomime when you do not see it.  Solomon consistently relies on structuring his reporting around FBI and DOJ activity.

“Yep”, “Yep”, “Yep.”  That is what you hear from a person who understands influence by stimulating the victim’s head nodding.  In professional sales it is a form of cognitive affirmation.  Listen for it, listen for “yep” and count how many times you hear it.  There are open conversations in/around my proximity where Solomon is considered a CIA asset.

Keep that in the back of your mind as you watch Solomon position himself to narrate what the FBI and DOJ are doing.

REPORT: Maurene Comey Fired from DOJ


Posted originally on CTH on July 16, 2025 | Sundance 

Perhaps the top tiers of the DOJ are hearing the outrage.  Perhaps this is a ‘tamp down’ effort?

Regardless, of structural underpinning, the removal of a demonstrably, perhaps purposefully ineffective attorney from the Southern District of New York, who happens to be the daughter of one of the most political FBI Directors in history, was something very much needed.

According to Politico, Maurene Comey has been fired from the DOJ office.

NEW YORK – Maurene Comey, who prosecuted Jeffrey Epstein and is former FBI Director James Comey’s daughter, was fired Wednesday from her job in the Manhattan U.S. attorney’s office, according to two people familiar with the matter who were granted anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly.

The reason for her firing was not immediately clear. She did not immediately respond to phone calls and an email seeking comment. Spokespeople for the Justice Department and the U.S. attorney’s office declined to comment.

Comey, who had worked in the U.S. attorney’s office for nearly a decade, prosecuted both Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell. (read more)

The timing of her removal does not seem coincidental.

Suddenly, For Some Mysterious Reason, Canada Wants to Put Limits on Chinese Steel Imports


Posted originally on CTH on July 16, 2025 | Sundance 

Well, what do you know?   An interesting article about Canada suddenly proposing to put limits on the amount of Chinese steel and aluminum they import.  Although missing in the article is a reference to what this means about the prior process that did not have such limits.

Essentially, if you drop the pretending within the Wall Street Journal/MSM narrative, the decision by Mark Carney to limit Chinese Steel is a direct admission of their knowledge to a preexisting level of imports that violated the USMCA and all previous demands to block imports of Chinese steel.

Trump always said Canada was a transnational shipper and entry into the USA.  Trudeau and Carney previously denied this was the reality.  Well, if that wasn’t the reality, then why the need to change? I digress.

OTTAWA—Canada introduced limits on how much foreign steel produced in countries other than the U.S. and Mexico can be imported, as the Liberal government tries to help a domestic sector reeling from President Trump’s 50% tariffs on Canadian steel.

Prime Minister Mark Carney said Wednesday that the series of import limits and the tariffs targeting steel products with Chinese links are required because the Canadian economy has been too reliant on foreign steel to meet the needs of the construction and manufacturing sectors. He cited data indicating that two-thirds of total steel consumption in Canada comes from abroad, compared with one-third for the U.S. and one-sixth in Europe.

Carney added that the changes would also guard against foreign steel entering Canada to bypass Trump’s tariffs. Canada has had a “disproportionately open import market” when it comes to steel, Carney said at a steel factory in Hamilton, Ontario.

He added that he wouldn’t allow the current trade conflict with the U.S.—combined with unfair trade practices elsewhere—to gut the nation’s steel industry at a time when Ottawa will require the metal to embark on trade-infrastructure projects such as ports, energy corridors and pipelines.

“We must diversify our trade relationships, and above all we must rely more on Canadian steel for Canadian projects. Those shifts start today,” he said. (read more)

We have awesome Canadian Treepers; however, I would like to ask the Canadians who are stuck in denial of the steel transnational shipping issue, why Canada needed to change?

President Trump Blasts Supporters Who Continue Focusing on Epstein Story


Posted originally on CTH on July 16, 2025 | Sundance

President Trump sent out a very strong message on Truth Social today. “[M]y PAST supporters have bought into this “bullshit,” hook, line, and sinker,” Trump said. Adding, “I don’t want their support anymore!”

President Trump was then asked why he thought his supporters were so focused on the Jeffrey Epstein saga during an impromptu press conference. Response Below:

Obviously President Trump wants his supporters to drop talking about this story, and I must admit I was wrong. I earnestly believed someone close to President Trump would explain why his support base was/is focused on the Epstein scandal as representative of government control of information.

While the “Epstein stuff” in general has never been a subject of great interest here, I simply cannot explain this level of disconnect toward those to whom the story is important.  This is new because President Trump has always reflected his understanding of his hardcore base of support, even when the details were difficult to understand.

PRESIDENT TRUMP – “The Radical Left Democrats have hit pay dirt, again! Just like with the FAKE and fully discredited Steele Dossier, the lying 51 “Intelligence” Agents, the Laptop from Hell, which the Dems swore had come from Russia (No, it came from Hunter Biden’s bathroom!), and even the Russia, Russia, Russia Scam itself, a totally fake and made up story used in order to hide Crooked Hillary Clinton’s big loss in the 2016 Presidential Election, these Scams and Hoaxes are all the Democrats are good at – It’s all they have – They are no good at governing, no good at policy, and no good at picking winning candidates.

Also, unlike Republicans, they stick together like glue. Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this “bullshit,” hook, line, and sinker. They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years.

I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax. Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore!

Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” (TS: 16 Jul 13:43 UTC)

I have never seen an issue divide the support base of President Trump like the DOJ/FBI response to the “Epstein file” inquiries.   This is very unfortunate and completely avoidable.

Tick Tock Co-Pilot John Solomon Says FBI Currently Investigating “Conspiracy” Involving, Obama, Comey, Brennan and Clapper


Posted originally on CTH on July 15, 2025 | Sundance

Sean Hannity and John Solomon have apparently ejected Sara Carter for “Tick Tock Term-2”, seemingly replacing her with James (‘sounds like Gopher from Winnie the Pooh‘) Comer.

In the latest iteration of the tick-tock walls closing in, at least according to Solomon, the FBI is currently doing a “grand conspiracy” investigation of Barack Obama, James Comey, John Brennan and James Clapper.

Solomon says below, “This is a criminal conspiracy. And by treating it as a conspiracy, you eliminate the five-year statutes on individual crimes. So if something happened in 2016, but it was part of an ongoing conspiracy that continued with Jack Smith raiding Donald Trump’s home at Mar-a-Lago, it can be charged in the larger conspiracy. Even though, if you tried to charge it as an individual case, you wouldn’t get it.”  WATCH:

According to Solomon, even Lee Zeldin is a potential candidate to lead a special prosecution team against the former conspirators, and the evidence is so overwhelming … “a special prosecutor would have a jumpstart. This could be wrapped up in a couple of years.”…

I can’t even begin to wrap my head around how ridiculous this claim by Hannity, Solomon and Representative ‘Gopher‘ Comer actually is.  Who believes this nonsense?  We are years beyond believing the FBI is structurally doing anything to return fire against the Obama administration; yet here is Fox News selling bulk hopium to their viewers.

Ridiculous.  All of it.

Senate Majority Leader Thune puts Lindsey Graham Russian Sanctions into Holding Pattern


Posted originally on CTH on July 14, 2025 | Sundance

Good job here by John Thune.  Let President Trump work on the Russia-Ukraine problem and await his request for more legislative tools.   A refreshing change in the Senate leadership approach.

WASHINGTON DC – Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Monday he would hold off on advancing a closely watched package of sanctions targeting Russia’s trading partners after President Donald Trump said he was prepared to act himself later this summer if Russian President Vladimir Putin doesn’t move toward a peace deal with Ukraine.

“It sounds like right now the president is going to attempt to do some of this on his own,” Thune told reporters. “If at some point the president concludes that it makes sense and adds value and leverage that he needs in those negotiations to move the bill, then we’ll do it. We’ll be ready to go.” (more)

Let Trump be Trump.  He’s trying to stop this U.S/NATO proxy war, by cutting the Gordian knot in Ukraine.

Supreme Court Blocks Lower Court Ruling, Permitting Trump Administration to Fire Dept of Ed Workforce


Posted originally on CTH on July 14, 2025 | Sundance

In a 6-3 Supreme Court decision today, the majority have blocked a lower court ruling that stopped the Trump administration Dept of Education from downsizing the federal agency.

The justices apparently voted 6-3 to stay the lower court ruling with the DEI justices (gay, latino, black) filing a 19-page dissent. [SEE RULING HERE] The high court lifted an injunction a federal judge in Boston granted in May against the firing of Dept of Education bureaucrats.

[SOURCE]

The lower court judge ruled the staff cuts were so drastic they would prevent the department from carrying out duties mandated by Congress. He also said the mass firings appeared to be part of Trump’s plan to eliminate the Education Department entirely, despite a lack of congressional authorization to do so.

Today, the Supreme Court again affirmed the President is within his power to control the size and scope of the executive branch.

WASHINGTON DC – “Education Secretary Linda McMahon called the decision “a significant win for students and families,” but she added in a statement: “It is a shame that the highest court in the land had to step in to allow President Trump to advance the reforms Americans elected him to deliver using the authorities granted to him by the U.S. Constitution.”

The Education Department announced its so-called reduction in force in March, giving affected workers a termination date of June 10. Those layoffs had been temporarily halted by the lower-court injunction. But shortly after the Supreme Court’s ruling Monday, some affected employees received an email informing them that they will now be terminated on Aug. 1. (read more)

President Trump Gives President Putin 50 Days to Finish Ukraine Operations and Get to Peace Deal, In Interim Offensive and Defensive Weapons Coordinated Through NATO


Posted originally on CTH on July 14, 2025 | Sundance 

As expected, no one in the media pool asked the key question.  If Ukraine is not a NATO member, and Russia is not a NATO member, then why is NATO even involved?  Not a single media outlet cared enough to even ask the brutally obvious.

LET US NOT PRETEND.  There is good news and there is bad news within the outlined strategy.  More good than bad, despite the spin room narrative engineering being immediately spread by U.S. media.

First, President Trump is giving Russian President Vladimir Putin 50 days to finish his strategic military operations in Ukraine, before a 100% tariff rate is executed against the Russian economy.  With direct U.S. trade with Russia already not happening, the tariff would likely be applied toward any country purchasing any goods or resources from Russia (specifically India, China, Iran, etc.).

Second, despite Lindsey Graham and the EU leaders discussing the confiscation of Russian assets held in EU/USA bonds, neither President Trump nor NATO General Secretary Mark Rutte mentioned it.  Again, the media never asked that question.  Thankfully, President Trump seems to realize if such a confiscation took place, the financial credibility of the entire western finance system would be compromised.  No nation would want to put their national wealth at risk by buying U.S. and EU treasury bonds.

Third, the part the MSM will focus on.  In the interim of the 50 days, NATO will be both purchasing and moving offensive and defensive weapons systems into Ukraine.  On the defensive weapon side, Germany will likely send Patriot missile batteries, and NATO will replace them with new U.S. purchases.  In addition all NATO states will provide increased offensive weapons and purchases will be made from U.S. stockpiles.  Those new offensive weapons will likely be held back until the end of the 50 days, giving Putin something to think about to bring him to the table.

Summary.  Putin has 50 days. In the interim NATO is approved by Trump to ship offensive and defensive weapons into Ukraine.  The Senate sanctions package will continue to be assembled, perhaps approved, but not deployed until after the 100% tariffs are executed if Russia is non compliant in getting to the table.

The carrot is the 50 days to get finished. The stick is all hell will break loose on Russia, including new and powerful offensive weapons, if Putin doesn’t end the conflict prior to the 50-day deadline.
