CNN Promotes ICE App an Alert System to Help Illegal Aliens Avoid Capture


Posted originally on CTH on June 30, 2025 | Sundance

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about this earlier today during her press briefing.

CNN is promoting an early warning system for cell phone users that alerts them to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity.  In response, DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said, “This sure looks like obstruction of justice. Our brave ICE law enforcement face a 500% increase in assaults against them. If you obstruct or assault our law enforcement, we will hunt you down and you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

Apparently the Apple and Google stores have authorized the ICE Block app to be downloaded from their services.

There are a lot of vested financial interests in the human trafficking and illegal alien business.  This ICE Block app, is part of the system that perpetuates the exploitation and criminal illegal activity.  Given the nature of the national security interests involved, one has to wonder how this type of technology does not run afoul of the law.

UPDATE:  As noted, there could be positives.  Download the App., and if you encounter a long checkout line at WalMart, Home Depot, DMV or Post Office etc., activate the ICE alert and watch what happens.

Canfield Mountain is in Coeur d’Alene, which is in northwestern Idaho, about 30 miles from Spokane, Washington. The fire appeared to have been set as part of an “ambush,” and sheriff’s deputies took active sniper fire, Kootenai County Sheriff Bob Norris said. Authorities said during a press conference that a man was found dead on Canfield Mountain with a gun nearby. That man is believed to be the shooter, Norris said. Briefing:

Auto Pen Scandal Thickens

Biden Signing Executive Orders

The House Oversight Committee has been investigating the autopen scandal under Joe Biden’s opaque presidency. Who was authorizing legislation of the president’s behalf? Neera Tanden, the former director of Biden’s Domestic Policy Council, testified that she received authorization to direct autopen signatures.

Tanden admitted that she did not know who was providing final clearance. In fact, she said she had very limited interaction with Joe Biden directly and never received confirmation on who was providing the final approval to use the automatic signature tool. Members of Biden’s inner circle intercepted memos prior to approval and sent them back to Tanden. Who was at the helm of the decision-making process?

“I just spoke with the House Oversight Committee, Majority and Minority Council. I answered every question, was pleased to discuss my public service and it was a thorough process. And I’m glad I answered everyone’s question,” Tanden told reporters after a five-hour interrogation. She insists that there was no attempt to hide Biden’s mental health, and in fact, his mental health was not largely discussed.

Dr. Kevin O’Connor is due to appear before the committee. O’Connor, Biden’s personal family friend, was responsible for affirming that Joe Biden was mentally “fit for duty.” Dr. O’Connor claimed Joe Biden was a “healthy, active, robust 81-year-old male who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.” Arthritis and sleep apnea were his only cited medical issues. The validity of his claims came into question when Biden revealed he had suffered from late-stage prostate cancer, a condition that would have been nearly impossible for his personal physician to miss during examinations. Every specialist has affirmed that Joe Biden undoubtedly has had cancer for years, with most stating it takes nine to 10 years for someone to develop this form of aggressive cancer.

They hid Biden’s physical and mental health from the American public. Someone in his inner circle was providing clearance and using Joe Biden’s signature without the approval of the chosen president, completely obliterating any resemblance of a democracy. Jill Biden and others are also set to testify in what may be one of the most disgraceful cover-ups in American history.

A Dangerous Moment – The Targeting of Tulsi Gabbard


Posted originally on CTH on June 18, 2025 | Sundance

For the sake of urgency I’m going to talk in direct and bold terms about the targeting of Tulsi Gabbard.  The IC system is attempting to remove her as a disruptive influence by using Iran as a wedge to get her out, but the issue they have with Director Gabbard has nothing to do with Iran.

CTH approaches this after being very concerned about Tulsi Gabbard’s ability.  Not because of intent, but rather we doubted her understanding of the scope of the IC opposition aligned against an effective Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

Gabbard started out with these weaknesses, but she learned quickly – grasped the opposition– and has become a transformative force within the Intelligence Community.  Director Gabbard’s recent efforts within the Intelligence Community Inspector General office is another feather in her cap of competence.  Gabbard is now a threat.

If President Trump allows or supports the removal of DNI Gabbard, he is opening up the backplate of his armor, and making himself vulnerable.

The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, Chairman Tom Cotton, the disassembled National Intelligence Council and a host of Intelligence Community embeds would like to see Gabbard removed.   DC wants to see her removed because the traditional role of the DNI has been a willfully blind tool of the Intelligence Community; Gabbard is not that.

As DNI Mrs Tulsi Gabbard has ♦ chased down intelligence community leakers, ♦ released the JFK files, ♦ released Joe Biden’s domestic terrorism surveillance plan, ♦ intercepted an NIC plot to impeach President Trump (confirmed by Rubio), ♦ taken control of the Presidential Daily Briefing, ♦ and more recently begun to confront the weaponized corruption within the IC Inspector General organization. These are actions, not words, and those actions speak boldly.  Suffice to say, her effectiveness has placed a target on her back.

In the past few weeks, ever since she began intercepting the ICIG issues and using her own personnel to monitor the IC network, she has been targeted with several direct smear campaigns. It is obvious the targeting is coming from inside the intelligence apparatus, and perhaps even the orbit around/under CIA Director John Ratcliffe.

Tulsi Gabbard did make a strange video about nuclear weapons contrast against the horrific outcomes in Japan, but that seemed to be more of a personal video entry expressing a deep concern about nuclear weapons from her own perspectives.  I said it was weird when I saw it, but I put that expression into the context of ‘surfboard Tulsi‘, the DNI peacenik. No biggie.

However, with the Israel -v- Iran conflict encompassing the White House, there is a transparent objective to weaponize Tulsi Gabbard’s activity as a contrast against President Trump supporting military conflict in Iran.

This contrast is being stimulated by the same elements who want to see her removed for the reasons noted above.

The latest narrative du jour in the files includes:

WASHINGTON DC – […] Trump has increasingly mused about nixing Gabbard’s office completely, an idea he floated when he gave her the job. In the White House there have been discussions about folding its mandate into the CIA or another agency, according to one of the people familiar with his response to the video and two others familiar with the matter — though it’s unclear what that would mean for Gabbard. The Director of National Intelligence serves as the president’s principal intelligence adviser and oversees the sprawling U.S. spy community. (link)

First, “nixing Gabbard’s office completely” is exactly what the bad elements of the Intelligence Community would love to see.  Second, “folding its mandate into the CIA” is like a dream come true for the darkest elements of the IC and Senate enablers. And Third, “serves as the president’s principal intelligence adviser” is false.  That’s the job of the National Security Advisor, Marco Rubio.

If there is one hope amid this looming and increasing drumbeat to remove her, it is that Marco Rubio likely can see exactly what the motives and intentions are from his former colleagues.  The elements targeting DNI Gabbard all come from SSCI Chairman Marco Rubio’s old tribe.

SoS/NSA Rubio might save her, as too may Vice President JD Vance.  Both of them are at the perfect distance to see the assembled drumbeat against Gabbard for what it is, a coordinated Intelligence Community operation.  At least that is my hope.

I am not confident they will succeed removing her.  However, what I am confident about is that if DNI Tulsi Gabbard is removed, she will not be replaced, and that’s as good as a win for the bad actors trying to target and survive Trump.

President Trump has no more juice or influence in the Senate.  That time is over.  Trump has exhausted all of the political capital he held in the upper chamber.  Every Republican Senator now smiles, nods and does whatever the heck they want regardless of how it impacts President Trump.  This is especially true for the SSCI who would control confirmation of a DNI replacement.  They Republicans do not have to pretend any longer, Trump’s juice is gone.

If President Trump allows the Brutus crew in his orbit to isolate, ridicule and marginalize Tulsi Gabbard, he will be putting a significant part of his administration at risk.  This is the Six Ways from Sunday crowd.

Powell Blames Trump Tariffs for Coming Inflation

I repeatedly warned that the headlines would blame Trump tariffs for the incoming inflationary wave. Jerome Powell stated that “uncertainty is unusually elevated” as a result of tariffs, adding, “someone has to pay for the tariffs.”

“Ultimately, the cost of the tariff has to be paid, and some of it will fall on the end consumer,” he told reporters, noting that many retailers are only now replacing pre-tariff inventory. “We do expect to see more of that over the course of the summer.” This is a complete misread of the economic landscape based on antiquated economic principles.

Tariffs are taxes that are passed on to consumers. However, Powell is confusing a one-time price adjustment with a monetary-driven inflationary wave that began after the pandemic. The Fed is looking at the situation through a domestic lens while ignoring the international monetary crisis that is unfolding. We are experiencing a drastic shift away from public confidence worldwide, and that is causing capital to lose confidence in governments that are already deeply indebted.

The Fed is terrified of crashing the bond market if it hikes too fast, and equally terrified of sparking a dollar collapse if it cuts too soon. Government debt is no longer viewed as a safe haven. The computer has been warning that the sovereign debt crisis cannot be ignored for much longer. The Fed can no longer control inflation through interest rates. That was a Keynesian principle established when the government was not the largest borrower. Raising interest rates can have no impact on demand, as the government will simply borrow more, and the central banks simply have no say.

There is no limit to what the government will spend with “money” that simply does not exist. Governments continue to borrow perpetually with no real intention of paying back their debts. This is one piece of the Sovereign Debt Crisis that will implode like a nuclear bomb the likes of which we have never witnessed. The business cycle cannot be manipulated, and what’s more, the Keynesian model cannot account for declining confidence in both government and the economy.

Democrats Wage War on ICE Agents


Posted originally on Jun 18, 2025 by Martin Armstrong |  

California legislators wish to create a lawless state that empowers criminals posing as political activists. The Department of Homeland Security reported that attacks on ICE agents in Los Angeles have increased by 413% in recent weeks. Twelve LAPD officers were injured in riots across the city on No Kings Day. Criminals are throwing Molotov cocktails and rocks at civil servants paid to enforce the law, and worse, countless pages on the internet are dedicated to doxxing agents. California Democrats are now demanding that law enforcement agents remove facial coverings to enable these criminals to be clearly identified.

State Sen. Scott Wiener, a Democrat representing San Francisco, and State Sen. Jesse Arreguin, a Democrat representing Berkeley and Oakland, declared that civilians cannot decipher law enforcement agents from vigilante militia groups, although no such groups have been reported. The lawmakers are presenting legislation that would require all law enforcement agents to remove any facial coverings and display their name or other identifier on their uniform. Failure to comply could result in criminal misdemeanor charges.

Todd Lyons, ICE’s acting director, explained that this measure would endanger the lives of his officers. “I’m sorry if people are offended by them wearing masks, but I’m not going to let my officers and agents go out there and put their lives on the line, their family on the line because people don’t like what immigration enforcement is,” he stated.

Who are the Democrats protecting? The first large ICE raid in June resulted in the arrests of 118 illegal aliens, including five gang members, and people with prior convictions for drug smuggling, child abuse, domestic violence, robbery, alien smuggling, and assault. On June 6, 2025, when the ICE raids began, over 1,000 rioters surrounded the LAPD office, defaced taxpayer-funded property, slashed the tires of police cruisers, and attempted to break into the building. It took the LAPD two long hours to respond to the threat. This is one of countless incidents of brutality against police officers occurring throughout the state.

The DHS released a report clearly identifying the instigators. “These riots in Los Angeles and increased assaults on ICE officers come after Democrat politicians, including Hakeem Jeffries, Mayor Wu of Boston, Tim Walz, and Mayor Bass of Los Angeles, have villainized and demonized ICE law enforcement.” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin noted that these politicians have released a slew of propaganda “glorifying rioters” and portraying police and ICE agents as “modern-day Nazi gestapo.”

Doxxing is a practice where a person’s personal information is released online. Online forums are dedicated to identifying ICE agents and releasing their personal information including home addresses, names of family members, and in some instances, where their children attend school.

The Democrats have become violent extremists. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) has encouraged doxxing practices. “We’re going to make sure that the American people have the transparency necessary to hold people accountable,” he stated, adding to the Nazi rhetoric that 2025 is not the 1930s. “Every single ICE agent who’s engaged in this aggressive overreach and are trying to hide their identities from the American people will be unsuccessful in doing that,” Jeffries said.

Border czar Tom Homan said that assaults and doxxing on ICE officials is at an all-time high across the nation. States like Florida and Tennessee are introducing anti-doxxing legislation to protect officers. Florida plans to conduct routine patrols and check-ins to ensure the safety of law enforcement agents and their families. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) had to act quickly after the mayor of Nashville publicly shared the names of ICE officials involved in a recent sting. Such a move could not result in five years imprisonment.

Republicans were accused of inciting violence on one particular day in January four years ago. Yet, not a single Republican called for violence or encouraged disorder. The Democrats are openly opposing federal orders, encouraging violent riots and attacks on civil servants, and creating the grounds for civil war. Innocent lives are at risk as a direct result of this political propaganda, and for some reason, Democratic lawmakers are above the law. Civil unrest in America has heightened to outright violent pandemonium, and civilians who support conservative causes will be the next victims.
