President Trump posted the importance of the Supreme Court case to support presidential authority on Tariffs.
The heart of the argument really is the “trillions at stake” aspect we have discussed on these pages for the past ten years. If the institutions of our government factually want to dispatch President Trump and diminish the American middle-class, the Supreme Court will support the multinational corporations and Wall Street in decision to remove presidential tariff authority.
[Via Truth Social] – “Next week’s Case on Tariffs is one of the most important in the History of the Country. If a President is not allowed to use Tariffs, we will be at a major disadvantage against all other Countries throughout the World, especially the “Majors.” In a true sense, we would be defenseless! Tariffs have brought us Great Wealth and National Security in the nine months that I have had the Honor to serve as President. The Stock Market has hit All Time Highs many times during my short time in Office, with virtually No Inflation, and National Security that is second to none.
Our recent successful negotiation with China, and many others, put us in a strong position only because we had Tariffs with which to negotiate fair and sustainable Deals. If a President was not able to quickly and nimbly use the power of Tariffs, we would be defenseless, leading perhaps even to the ruination of our Nation. The only people fighting us are Foreign Countries who for years have taken advantage of us, those who hate our Country and, the Democrats, because our numbers are insurmountably good.
I will not be going to the Court on Wednesday in that I do not want to distract from the importance of this Decision. It will be, in my opinion, one of the most important and consequential Decisions ever made by the United States Supreme Court. If we win, we will be the Richest, Most Secure Country anywhere in the World, BY FAR. If we lose, our Country could be reduced to almost Third World status — Pray to God that that doesn’t happen!”

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard addressed the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) Manama Dialogue, in Manama, Bahrain. The transcript of her prepared remarks is below – The Q&A Session is not transcribed.
It should be remembered that Bahrain was the second nation to erupt following the 2009 Cairo, Egypt speech of then President Barack Obama. Tunisia was the first, Egypt was the third. The government of Bahrain barely survived the Islamist Spring and later formed a coalition with Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE against the extremists within the Muslim Brotherhood then supported by Qatar.
DNI Gabbard speaks to the changed geopolitical environment in the era of U.S. President Donald Trump; the elimination of seemingly endless conflict driven by old guard establishment entities and influence agents around the world. The Director highlights her personal journey toward supporting President Trump and the America First agenda that seeks genuine friendship and national partnerships based on mutually beneficial transactions.
[TRANSCRIPT] – “Thank you, distinguished guests, excellencies, friends, and fellow peacemakers. It’s a privilege to join all of you here this evening. Your Highness, thank you very much for your kind hospitality and welcoming us in hosting this important event. To IISS and your team, thank you for yet again putting on a phenomenal dialogue. It’s an honor to be able to address you here in the Kingdom of Bahrain at this pivotal time in global history.
As we gather here, we’re reminded that true security, true stability, and peace cannot be forged in isolation, but in the common collection of peacemakers working towards that common purpose. Today, I want to speak plainly for myself as a veteran and a soldier who has seen firsthand the high cost of war. As someone who serves under President Trump’s leadership, I have experienced the promise of peace. His vision is about delivering real wins, not just for America, but for our collective cause of peace and prosperity, and doing so through a very principled realism, rooted in shared goals, interests, and values.
The old Washington way of thinking is something we hope is in the rear-view mirror and something that has held us back for too long. For decades, our foreign policy has been trapped in a counterproductive and endless cycle of regime change or nation-building. It was a one-size-fits-all approach of toppling regimes, trying to impose our system of governance on others, intervening in conflicts that were barely understood, and walking away with more enemies than allies. The result: trillions spent, countless lives lost, and in many cases, a creation of greater security threats, the rise of Islamist terrorist groups like ISIS.”
“We’ve heard President Trump and Vice President Vance speak just last week about their hope that the Abraham Accords will continue to grow and expand to allow for a true lasting regional stability and peace. This is what President Trump’s America First policy looks like in action, building peace through diplomacy, with an understanding that there cannot be prosperity without peace. President Trump de-escalated tensions on the Korean peninsula through direct talks. During his first term in office, he opened lines of communication with North Korea that had been frozen for generations. He did what no other president had been willing to do: engage directly to speak about peace. He restored American leadership abroad. He brokered economic normalization between Serbia and Kosovo, promoting stability and peace in the Balkan region.
And now just nine months into his second term, President Trump’s America First agenda is supercharging these efforts and securing peace on a scale that we haven’t seen in decades. He secured ceasefires between India and Pakistan, Israel and Iran, a peace agreement between Rwanda and the DRC, a peace deal between Armenia and Azerbaijan, Cambodia and Thailand, and averted conflict between Egypt and Ethiopia over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam. As was mentioned previously and is very much in focus for so many of us, he negotiated the release of all living hostages from Hamas. While fragile, a historic ceasefire and peace plan is moving forward. It is doing so with integral support from many of our partners here in this room.
So, what ties all of this together? A simple and revolutionary idea: Pursue joint interests. Find those win-win solutions where they align and recognize that yes, we will have differences, and we will work through them.
President Trump understands that not everyone shares our exact values or our system of governance, and that’s okay. What’s most important is finding where our shared common ground exists and building those partnerships and progressing on those common grounds. Things like energy independence that stabilizes global markets, things like countering terrorism, something that continues to grow in different parts of the world, strengthening trade partnerships to boost economic growth and innovation. These are the components, the glue of enduring partnerships and friendships. So, America First is not about isolating ourselves. As President Trump has shown, it’s about engaging in direct diplomacy, being willing to have conversations that others are not willing to have and finding that path forward where our mutual sovereign interests are aligned.
And that’s really why we’re all gathered here today in Manama. We can commit to this path ourselves and put it into action with Bahrain’s own leadership. Year after year, hosting these critical dialogues shows us the way forward, convening nations from around the globe, amplifying shared stakes and strengthening partnerships and lines of communications that allow us to resolve our differences and deliver results for our respective people.
Under President Trump, the United States is your partner in executing this vision as a deal maker who is committed to peace. And together we look forward to continuing this path towards peace, to ending wars that have defined too many generations, unlocking prosperity for millions, and helping support the future of a Middle East where security is a dividend of cooperation, not a cost of conflict.
Thank you very much. God bless you. God bless the pursuit of peace.”

Nine sitting U.S. Senators, dozens of President Trump’s staff and thousands of Americans were targeted as part of the FBI investigation known as “Arctic Frost.” Senator Eric Schmitt, a former attorney general from Missouri, outlines his perspective on what should happen next.
The information to congress about the Arctic Frost investigation is coming from FBI whistleblowers, not from Director Kash Patel or Deputy Director Dan Bongino, and the depth of the targeting evidence held within the FBI is apparently hidden from leadership review – or they would be releasing it. So, Senator Eric Schmitt wants to extract all of the pertinent information from inside the DOJ and FBI and then launch congressional Watergate style hearings about it. WATCH:

The Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) annual leadership summit was held in Las Vegas, Nevada. This year’s event has gained additional, perhaps purposefully boosted, attention due to the organized effort by the RJC to defend the Israeli government from any American criticism. The need for control is a reaction to fear.
Well known conservative voices like Mark Levin and Ted Cruz, emphasized the RJC message that support for the government of Israel was a key component to their definition of the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement.
Young conservatives from the Turning Point USA organization were used during a speech by Florida Congressman Randy Fine to highlight his speech theme, “Tucker Carlson is Not MAGA,” a theme that was also emphasized by Officer Brandon Tatum.
President Donald Trump did not attend the leadership summit but sent a televised speech for the audience in lieu of a keynote address. WATCH:

I see President Trump’s point on this quite clearly.
The Big Beautiful Bill (BBB), essentially the 2026 budget and spending package, was passed along party lines because Democrats would not support the cuts to their spending programs which purchased votes. The Democrat opposition to the fiscal spending Continuing Resolution (CR) is essentially just another way to filibuster the BBB that preceded it.
If the Republican Senate would end the filibuster to pass the BBB, then why would the Republican Senate permit the spending filibuster to block the CR which is the spending vehicle to deploy the BBB?
DONALD J TRUMP – “Remember, Republicans, regardless of the Schumer Shutdown, the Democrats will terminate the Filibuster the first chance they get. They will Pack the Supreme Court, pick up two States, and add at least 8 Electoral Votes. Their two objectors are gone!!! Don’t be WEAK AND STUPID. FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT! WIN, WIN, WIN! We will immediately END the Extortionist Shutdown, get ALL of our agenda passed, and make life so good for Americans that these DERANGED DEMOCRAT politicians will never again have the chance to DESTROY AMERICA! Republicans, you will rue the day that you didn’t TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER!!! BE TOUGH, BE SMART, AND WIN!!! This is much bigger than the Shutdown, this is the survival of our Country!”

Vice President JD Vance appears for a lengthy interview with Miranda Devine to discuss a variety of current issues that have presented themselves to the Trump administration. [Full Video Here]
In the segment below, Vice President Vance talks about the Ukraine-Russia conflict, and the significant challenges dealing with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. As noted, Zelenskyy was used to getting everything he demanded from the former Biden administration; however, no end to the conflict was present in the prior policy.
President Trump is seeking to end the conflict, and has aligned policy toward that end. Both President Putin and President Zelenskyy must be willing to engage with each other diplomatically to resolve the issues. There is no current intention between both of the leaders toward a negotiated settlement.
President Trump has no intention to push U.S. policy into the middle of the conflict between Zelenskyy and Putin. WATCH:

On Friday President Trump noted (off-the-cuff) he was ambivalent to the trade interests of Canada and had no intention to restart discussions. However, Trump also said he holds no personal animosity toward Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney for the stupid and antagonistic move they made in purchasing a manipulative television ad intended to undermine the Trump trade position.
On Saturday, Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed he did apologize to President Trump for the Canadian effort.
GYEONGJU, South Korea, Nov 1 (Reuters) – Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Saturday he had apologised to U.S. President Donald Trump over an anti-tariff political advertisement and had told Ontario Premier Doug Ford not to run it.
Carney, speaking to reporters after attending an Asia-Pacific summit in South Korea, said he had made the apology privately to Trump when they both attended a dinner hosted by South Korea’s president on Wednesday.
“I did apologise to the president,” Carney said, confirming comments by Trump made on Friday.
Carney also confirmed that he had reviewed the ad with Ford before it aired but said he had opposed using it.
“I told Ford I did not want to go forward with the ad,” he said.
The ad, commissioned by Ford, an outspoken Conservative politician who is sometimes compared to Trump, uses a snippet of Republican icon and former President Ronald Reagan saying that tariffs cause trade wars and economic disaster.
In response, Trump announced that he was increasing tariffs on goods from Canada, and Washington has also halted trade talks with Canada.
When departing South Korea earlier this week, Trump remarked he had a “very nice” conversation with Carney at that dinner but did not elaborate. On Friday Trump still said the United States and Canada will not restart trade talks. (read more)
Carney also noted he had great discussions with Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping but did not negotiate any trade deals.
Instead, the Canadian Prime Minister emphasized the release of Canadian citizens detained in China and requested that Beijing not interfere in Canadian domestic politics.
The irony is strong.
The current USMCA (CUSMA) trade pact covers approximately 60% of U.S-Canada trade; it is the remaining 40% is being debated and argued.
President Trump’s position is pragmatic. He would prefer to just deal with 100% of the trade sectors in one bilateral free trade agreement; hence, his ambivalence until the USMCA is dissolved.
Canada, on the other hand, is entirely dependent. They demand all trade conflicts be resolved without opening up the USMCA. Again, another conflict. Canada is like the dependent spouse in a divorce arguing for child support payments when the “children” are in their twenties.
The current status is President Trump pulling back completely from discussions with Canada, while the various provincial Premiers and Prime Minister Mark Carney agonize over the issue.
At a certain point, when the entire national economic plan of Canada is based on “Donald Trump bad”, and all political messaging internally is to proclaim they have no alternative policy positions, the Canadians might not realize it, but they are confirming complete and total dependency on the nation Donald Trump represents.
What took place in last week’s tour of Asia, makes Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney look very small.

Dr Mehmet Oz is the Trump administration Administrator for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the massive federal health care bureaucracy that covers more than a third of Americans.
At least 14 states (pictured below) provide Medicaid to illegal aliens. Today Dr Oz provided some alarming information about corruption within the CMS system leading to millions of illegal aliens gaining benefits.
[Dr Oz, CMS Administrator] – “Based on our initial set of audits, more than $1B of federal taxpayer dollars were being spent on funding Medicaid for illegal immigrants. And my team is getting it back.
Some want to deny that illegal immigrants are receiving Medicaid. Others insist it’s illegal for Medicaid to cover illegal immigrants. And others accurately point out that hospitals can provide emergency services to illegal immigrants under the program.
We can all agree on this: rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse is essential to protecting this program for the most vulnerable. It’s also one of the Trump Administration’s top priorities.
Let me lay down the facts”:
“The truth is that federal law is supposed to prohibit federal Medicaid dollars broadly from being used to cover illegal immigrants. It does permit states to use Medicaid dollars for emergency treatment, regardless of patients’ citizenship or immigration status. States can also legally build Medicaid programs for illegal immigrants using their own state tax dollars, so long as no federal tax dollars are used.
But that didn’t stop Democrats from going even further by breaking federal law to give illegal immigrants federal Medicaid dollars meant for American citizens.
Earlier this year, the CMS team began auditing state Medicaid programs to ensure they were following the law and not spending any federal tax dollars on illegal immigrants outside of emergency Medicaid. What we found was shocking.
In a preliminary review of 6 states, we found those states improperly using federal tax dollars for their allegedly state-funded program and providing coverage to individuals, including some with criminal records of murder and assault.
Those states are: CA – $1,310,032,549 DC – $2,114,628 IL – $29,778,645 WA – $2,367,194 CO – $1,506,743 OR – $5,404,368
We notified the states, and many have begun refunding the money. But what if we had never asked?
Whether willful or not, the states’ conduct highlights a terrifying reality: American taxpayers have been footing the bill for illegal immigrants’ Medicaid coverage, despite many Democrats and the media insisting otherwise.
Democrats are demanding the repeal of the President’s Working Families Tax Cuts legislation in order for their votes to reopen the government. This law wisely strengthened our ability to limit federal dollars from being spent on health care for illegal immigrants. Until Democrats explicitly drop that demand, they’re blatantly holding the government hostage over giving Medicaid to illegal immigrants. (SOURCE)
Buckle up for this one.

There have been many reports of Christians being slaughtered in Africa, specifically in northern Nigeria.
A recent study by The Observatory for Religious Freedom in Africa, found more than 11,000 incidents of extreme violence from October 2019 through September of 2023. The violence left 55,910 people dead in 9,970 deadly attacks — as well as 21,621 people abducted in 2,705 attacks. {DATA HERE} Things have only gotten worse in the past two years.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has been pleading for help. “In a press release issued on Wednesday and made available to SaharaReporters, CAN said the scale of killings and displacement facing Christians had reached alarming proportions and demanded urgent, transparent action from the government and security agencies. “CAN affirms, without hesitation, that many Christian communities in parts of Nigeria, especially in the North, have suffered severe attacks, loss of life, and the destruction of places of worship,” the statement read.”
Today President Trump is calling attention to the issue via Truth Social.

Senator Ron Johnson underlines a key point being missed by many. All of the revelations about the FBI’s Arctic Frost investigation against President Trump and his supporters, are being provided by evidence carried to congress by DOJ/FBI “whistleblowers.”
Pause and reflect on that observation for a few moments. The public awareness of political targeting by the DOJ/FBI is coming from ‘whistleblowers’ to Senator Chuck Grassley. It is not Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel bringing forward the information about the weaponized use of their institutions.
If Pam Bondi and Kash Patel were in control of the root systems within their agencies, they would be the ones bringing forth the information; they are not. Bondi and Patel are not in control. Instead, the sunlight is coming from a few people within the organizations who are pushing the evidence out. Senator Johnson is providing a very deliberate point here:
The records that were made public yesterday were not obtained from an agency — they were obtained through a whistleblower.
We need more whistleblowers who want to see the integrity and credibility of @TheJusticeDept and @FBI restored.
One of the ongoing frustrations within the current dynamic is Pam Bondi and Kash Patel continuing to talk publicly about the honor, integrity and fidelity of the institutions they lead; without a public admission and statement about their agencies being comprehensively corrupted by the operation that Barack Obama and Eric Holder carried out.
Operation “Arctic Frost” did not originate organically in response to the J6 protests or the Jack Smith investigation. Arctic Frost was simply an extension of all former targeting operations that were carried out over the past ten years.
The targeting operation using the IRS. The targeting operation using the NSA database. The targeting operation using Crossfire Hurricane. The targeting operation using Robert Mueller. The targeting operation using the CIA impeachment effort (Schiff/Nadler). The targeting operation using J6 effort (Thompson). The targeting operation using Jack Smith. The Arctic Frost targeting operation. These are all designated and evidenced identifiers of a continuum of government targeting operations that has its origin in Barack Obama and Eric Holder.
Two simultaneous realities need to be accepted if this mess is to get to the point of accountability.
First, the primary function of the FBI is to protect the interests of Washington, DC. Within the body politic everyone knows what the purpose and agenda is for the FBI mission; there is no one in Washington DC who does not know this. As a collective body they pretend not to know, because the ramifications of admitting knowledge are far greater than the actual corruption they pretend not to know exists.
Secondly, plausible deniability must be maintained by everyone in Washington DC as it pertains to their pretending. The FBI operates to defend the pretending by targeting any entity who would appear with the evidence of the underlying corruption. The FBI will attack any entity who brings forth the sunlight, because the sunlight itself destroys the illusions that all pretending is reliant upon.
To maintain the pretenses in Washington DC, the FBI must target anyone who brings evidence of corruption or unlawful activity. This is the primary operating mission of the FBI and the Lawfare agents within the DOJ who are vicious in their alignment to keep powerful people protected.
Last point from my own personal experience in this Machiavellian network.
If we accept the outlook that Washington DC politics is essentially a UniParty when it comes to retention of the status quo for both affluence (money) and influence (power); then we must begin to accept the same dynamic also exists within DC media.
There are no allies for the American people within the construct of a Right/Left Washington, DC media perspective. It simply does not exist. The same way the FBI will attack any truthteller, the “conservative” DC media will do the same to isolate, ridicule and marginalize any voice who brings evidence of the corruption they must pretend not to know about.
The DC protectorate promote outrage as a distraction.
It takes skill to see the trees while standing in the forest.
In the example above, Ron Johnson is highlighting the obvious nature of the trees.
