Bygones Being Bygones – Funny Moment of Unity Between Donald Trump and Ted Cruz


Posted originally on the CTH on December 23, 2024 | Sundance

President Trump created a significant moment during his talk at AmFest when he complimented Senator Ted Cruz and invited him onto the stage.

It is well remembered how duplicitous Ted! refused to endorse President Trump at the 2016 nomination convention and instead led the Never-Trump rebellion against the MAGA administration.  It was recorded in history as likely the worst moment of political judgement in the era of MAGA; the only other moment of political tonedeafeness that comes close, was when Ron DeSantis chose to challenge Trump again in the 2024 contest.

However, that said, President Trump is well known to be a man of intense forgiveness and grace toward those who oppose him.  Trump is a man who gives many chances, and during AmFest’24 President Trump showed that keen leadership spirit again with Senator Ted Cruz.  The jokes were soft, subtle and yet remarkably Trumpy as he had fun knowing the audience was well aware of the background.  WATCH:

Senator Ted Cruz has never recovered his diminished status from that 2016 moment, even with the scale of grace presented by President Donald Trump.  There’s just no comparison between a MAGA Godzilla and a GOP alligator.  Even CNN knew…

Newt Gingrich Breaks Down the House Spending Mess and Speaker Johnson’s Effort


Posted originally on the CTH on December 22, 2024 | Sundance

Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich discusses the House spending bill last week and the eventual outcome.  Much of Gingrich’s advice on the issues are very pragmatic and pertinent to the current status of the Republicans in the House.

Gingrich notes that President Trump’s legislative agenda is dependent on all of the Republicans getting on the same page and putting their differences aside when it comes time to vote.  WATCH:

REPORT: Palantir and Anduril Forming Consortium with SpaceX, Open AI, Sardonic and Scale AI to Bid on New Age Government (Defense) Contracts


Posted originally on the CTH on December 22, 2024 | Sundance

A breaking report outlines something we have predicted for well over six months.  A new era technocracy group formed around candidate and now the incoming administration of President Donald Trump.  The group holds financial interests, albeit currently in alignment with ideology.

Palantir (Peter Thiel) and defense contractor Anduril are teaming up with SpaceX (Elon Musk) and OpenAI to form a consortium group that will collaboratively bid on USG Federal contracts (likely Defense).

VIA REUTERS – Dec 22 (Reuters) – Data analytics firm Palantir Technologies (PLTR.O), opens new tab and defense tech company Anduril Industries are in talks with about a dozen competitors to form a consortium that will jointly bid for U.S. government work, the Financial Times reported on Sunday.

The consortium, which could announce agreements with other tech groups as early as January, is expected to include SpaceX, OpenAI, autonomous shipbuilder Saronic and artificial intelligence data group Scale AI, the newspaper said, citing several people with knowledge of the matter.

“We are working together to provide a new generation of defence contractors,” a person involved in developing the group told the newspaper.

The consortium will bring together the heft of some of Silicon Valley’s most valuable companies and will leverage their products to provide a more efficient way of supplying the U.S. government with cutting-edge defence and weapons capabilities, the newspaper added. (read more)

Without Peter Thiel there is no JD Vance.  Many might argue that without Elon Musk there is no President-elect Donald Trump.  I would agree with the former and disagree with the latter while admitting the Musk factor was positive in the election.

What we are seeing now is what CTH predicted we would see as a natural outcome of this tech group who purposefully aligned with Trump in the summer of 2024.

Peter Thiel (Palantir) has been very successful in gaining federal contracts for the software that combines facial recognition with artificial intelligence capabilities. Palantir’s AI can be used in DHS surveillance, as well as military operations to make targeting decisions more precise and effective.

Elon Musk (SpaceX and xAI) already have extensive contracts with the Federal government.  Now we are seeing ancillary tech groups join in collaboration with Thiel and Musk due to the access created by their relationship with President Trump and JD Vance.  None of these subsequent financial windfalls are accidental, they are all strategic and by design.

The old school of defense heavyweights, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics, are being challenged by smaller more technologically aligned companies Palantir, Anduril, SpaceX and supporting AI companies.   The new guys have an insider track due to their prepositioning on the Trump campaign.

The open question is who selected whom?  Did the new era Technocrats select Donald Trump as their strategic avenue for financial benefit; or did President Trump select the new era Technocrats as tools for election victory; or was it just a merge of interests for mutual benefit.

I suspect we are not as far away from finding out as most might think.

Texas AG Ken Paxton Indicates He Might Challenge Senator John Cornyn in Primary ’26


Posted originally on the CTH on December 22, 2024 | Sundance

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has faced the wrath of the professionally republican.  The Bush clan together with Democrats in the Lone Star state tried to take Paxton out of Texas politics with a ridiculous impeachment effort; supported by many Texas politicians including Chip Roy.  However, Paxton defeated the impeachment effort and is stronger than ever with the support of the base of the new republican party.

During a Q&A segment, Paxton was asked if he would present a primary challenge to Texas Senator John Cornyn. From his response in the segment below, it would appear that AG Paxton is favorable to doing it.  WATCH:

.

Whoever President Trump endorses in that 2026 GOP primary, will be the next Senator from Texas.  That reality is a strong point of leverage over Cornyn carried by President Trump for the next 18 months.

President Trump Asserts, Boldly, The Importance of the Panama Canal to American Vital National Interests


Posted originally on the CTH on December 21, 2024 | Sundance

Many people, perhaps even I at times, debate the granular aspects of President Trump’s administrative agenda. However, there is one component of President Donald J Trump that can never be debated, he is the most consequential U.S President in the past century.

There is not a single intellectually honest person who would doubt the intent and focus of Donald Trump to protect and defend the vital interests of our nation. President Trump’s perspective on the biggest of big pictures can never be denied. He has our total support.

President Trump is directing focus toward the U.S. vital national interest in the Panama Canal with a direct and brutally honest message to the government of the nation who benefitted from the most significant engineering accomplishment in all of the Americas.

[Source]

In a set of messages from his Truth Social account, directed toward the government of Panama, President Trump is placing a strong marker to say the control of the Panama Canal will never be allowed to fall into the hands of those who do not have our best interests in mind.

President Trump is not mincing words about our American position.

“[The Panama Canal] was not given for the benefit of others, but merely as a token of cooperation with us and Panama,” Trump concluded. “If the principles, both moral and legal, of this magnanimous gesture of giving are not followed, then we will demand that the Panama Canal be returned to us, in full, and without question.”

In a post on her Twitter account, Lara Trump has announced she is removing her name from consideration for the open Florida Senate seat, potentially created by a confirmation of Senator Marco Rubio to be Secretary of State.

Due to his acceptable republican status, Marco Rubio is expected to be swiftly confirmed to his new post by his Senate colleagues. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis previously said Floridians are likely to know the name of their next senator by the beginning of January 2025.

House Subcommittee on Weaponization of Government Releases 17,000 Page Report Outlining The Obama/Biden Weaponization of Government


Posted originally on the CTH on December 21, 2024 | Sundance 

The House Subcommittee on the weaponization of government has issued a massive 17,000-page series of staff reports documenting the Obama/Biden weaponization of government.

While many of the findings are not going to be a surprise to CTH readers, the details and emails cited in the report are substantial.

EXAMPLE: A redacted Facebook executive spilled the beans in an email about a call with DHS, saying: “DHS cannot openly endorse the portal.”

EXAMPLE: • Alex Stamos of the Stanford Internet Observatory emailed NextDoor executives: “We already have partnerships with Facebook, Twitter, and Google, and we would love to chat with you and your team.”

The massive documentary report is broken down into four segments [Available Here].  It is going to take some time to go through all of the reports and extract the critical components.  If you would like to take a review, the four-segment links are below:

Read part one of the final staff report here.

Read part two of the final staff report here.

Read part three of the final staff report here.

Read part four of the final staff report here.

At its core, the Obama era weaponization of government was the motive for the entire Obama team selecting Joe Biden as the 2020 candidate who gave them the best option for controlling and concealing the activity they undertook during the tenure of Barack Obama.

Biden was the avatar giving the Obama control operatives time to continue covering for all their previous action.

The latter part of 2010 through 2011 was a key period in the Obama presidency.  On the cusp of a midterm election shellacking, with domestic focus on the issues around Obamacare, the Obama team and Hillary Clinton team were also intent on fueling the “Arab Spring” and the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Libya and Egypt.

With background research provided by the U.S. State Dept and Rivkin Project in France, a petri-dish dish experiment to see if French culture could be diluted and enhanced with “brotherhood-style” multiculturalism, Hillary and Barry then fine-tuned the mechanics.  Secretary Hillary Clinton, Samantha Power and Susan Rice quickly convinced President Obama to help leverage his Silicon Valley allies.

As a workaround to stop Hosni Mubarak and Muamar Kaddafi from controlling information flow and putting down the protests, the social media platforms of Twitter and Facebook were enlisted to assist the Brotherhood in Egypt and Libya respectively.  The U.S-designated Brotherhood partners were given support, communication and influence through Twitter and Facebook to organize their protests.

In 2011 the official merge of U.S. social media platforms to assist the U.S. State Dept foreign policy agenda was created.  In many ways this merge was the inflection point for government to begin controlling social media, Libya and Egypt were the BETA test for what would later be deployed domestically.

Seeing the success and influence of the Arab Spring experiment, in 2012 President Obama signed HR-5736, with an addition to the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013.  The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act, contained within the NDAA for Fiscal Year 2013, eased some restrictions so that media produced by the U.S. Agency for Global Media and intended for foreign audiences could be distributed domestically upon request, according to its text. Prior to its passage, the propaganda content was banned from being disseminated in America.

This move made it possible to deploy the same social media tactics domestically.  Within the Twitter Files, you will note how 2012 and 2013 are key periods when the Dept of Homeland Security began exploring their new influence partnership in social media.   For the next ten years, that partnership created various sub-set silos within the government.

DHS, FBI and Intelligence Community offices now had direct communication lines into Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Google, WhatsAp, etc.  However, Telegram and TikTok were not around and not part of the partnership.  What two platforms have been targeted recently?… Just a coincidence, I’m sure.

The Arab Spring was the BETA test, the proving ground.  Then they went domestic with the same operation.

The results of the domestic operation, the public-private partnership, later became stunningly visible in the COVID-19 censorship operation as well as the government influence operation in the aftermath of the 2020 election.  However, most recently there has been some pushback from both originating entities; Twitter – via Elon Musk, and Facebook – via a regretful Mark Zuckerberg.

With increased scrutiny and a more awakened public seeing the consequences, it is harder for Main Justice, DHS and a weaponized intelligence community to execute their domestic propaganda operations.  Even the labeling and categorization through “mis-dis-mal-information” does not appear to be working.

Within a recent WEF discussion, Secretary Kerry outlined how freedom of speech is a ‘threat to the global democracy‘ because the governing officials have a difficult time controlling information.  Kerry goes on to posit how the next administration, he hoped at the time it would be Kamala Harris, would forcefully structure all the tools of government to stop Americans from using the first amendment to freely speak about issues.

Governing is too challenging, according to Kerry, when the government cannot stop people from seeking and discovering information that is against their interests.  Effective governing required compliant adherence to a singular ideology.

Against the backdrop of COVID-19 and a host of similarly related government narratives, if people are free to find alternative information and think for themselves, they become increasingly more difficult to control.  Yes, this is said quite openly.  This is the mindset of those in power.  WATCH:
