EU Blaming TikTok Platform for Election Losses in Romania and Regional Instability Collapsing French and German Government


Posted originally on the CTH on December 17, 2024 | Sundance

About a mile away from the Georgia Parliament building in Tbilisi, rests a simple sculpture of a large circle on a pedestal.  Someone recently spray painted the graffiti message: “Your Empire Building Ends Here!”  I can well imagine the Wolverine who put the message there.

It is a simple message aimed toward the European Parliament in Brussels, from the majority of the Georgian people represented by Georgian Dream, the party of nationalist pride who refuse to become the next Ukraine.

Between that sculpture and the Parliament building there is an upscale shopping district filled with high-end stores.  However, the shop fronts are now covered in graffiti (“ACAB” and other international Antifa messages), many store windows are broken, and the visible scars of violent street protests are mixed in with festive Christmas decorations.

On the streets of Tbilisi protests take place almost every day, some pro-EU and some Pro-Georgia Dream.  The ordinary citizens of the city and region are, well, quite frankly, sick of it.  The CIA, USAID and EU groups tried and failed to install their puppet candidates and manipulate the people of Georgia into joining the EU.  Brussels now hates Tbilisi.  The street battle over influence continues.

Within greater Europe this conflict represented within Georgia, specifically Tbilisi, is the context for reactive globalists and their World Economic Forum politicians to another election outcome of similar scope, this time in Romania.   However, where Brussels had to let Georgia slip away, they are not going to allow Romania to escape their clutches.  {GO DEEP}

The EU and Western Intelligence Services were called into action to force the Romanian courts to nullify the results of their election.  They are now blaming social media platform TikTok for an election outcome that like Georgia, stunned Brussels.

(Via Politico) – Romanian authorities in the past two weeks accused TikTok of “irregularities” on its platform after a shock victory of ultranationalist, pro-Russia candidate Călin Georgescu in the first round of Romania’s presidential election in late November. Romania’s top court later annulled the election.

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen weighed in on Tuesday: “Following serious indications that foreign actors interfered in the Romanian presidential elections by using TikTok, we are now thoroughly investigating whether TikTok has violated the Digital Services Act [DSA] by failing to tackle such risks,” she said, announcing a formal probe — a rare public comment from the EU chief on such an investigation.

The escalation comes after weeks of wrangling between European and Romanian officials and TikTok executives. At the heart of the saga are reports and research that Georgescu got a boost from a network of paid influencers and bots, and allegations that TikTok didn’t properly address these threats. Romanian authorities this month declassified a series of documents suggesting these campaigns were eerily similar to Russian influence operations in Ukraine and Moldova.

The Commission will specifically investigate TikTok’s recommendation systems for “coordinated inauthentic manipulation or automated exploitation of the service,” as well as the platform’s policies on political ads and paid political content, the Commission said in a statement.

The case on Tuesday flamed up tensions between Europe’s political groups over free speech and foreign interference, in a five-hour debate at the European Parliament on Tuesday. (read more)

Both the French and German governing coalitions have collapsed.  The EU is bracing for more elections, where “bracing” means going to pull out all the stops to tamp down this rise of populism and nationalism that is sweeping the organized western world.  Yes, the peasants are revolting!

The Hungarians and the Poles do not support this nonsense investigation by the EU into TikTok.   Blaming the social media app for an election outcome in Romania is akin to blaming SpaceX for a broken 7-11 Slurpee machine Panama City.  We are back to this ridiculous pretending again.

The EU needs to pretend TikTok had some form of seismic influence in the Romanian election, because the EU needs a justification to annul the Romanian results they don’t like; that’s it.   It was the same playbook as blaming Russia for President Trump’s first 2016 election victory.

Romania is the new home for a massive NATO military base, currently under the preliminary construction phase, and the NATO/EU/WEF groups just cannot allow the election in Romania to carry an outcome against their interests.

Every election the World Economic Forum loses is caused by Russia, or some foreign activity now. The new democratic norms that followed the Build Back Better agenda, fundamentally destroying the energy system and making prices skyrocket, must ignore the economic consequences of the Build Back Better agenda and instead blame Russia.

Thom Tillis Threatens Trump Supporters to “Stand Down” on Pressure Because He Only Needs 4 Votes in Senate to Destroy Any Nomination

Senator Thom Tillis appears to have been granted a larger slice of the lobbyist money from Thune and McConnell because he certainly is taking up a position next to Joni Ernst in strategic opposition to President Donald Trump.

The level of passive aggressive threat-speak within Tillis’ very carefully selected wording is quite concerning.  “President Trump enjoyed a great deal of Republican support in his first term,” Tillis notes.  “But if people want to play the outside [pressure] game, they run a lot of risk,” he continues. “Four votes is all it’s going to take to kill a nomination here, so they should take pause,” Tillis reminds everyone.

Senator Tillis from North Carolina represents the aloof mindset of the Senate at large, and the detached mindset of the Republicans in the senate specifically.

The republicans in North Carolina in 2024 are highlighting just how similar they are to the republicans in Georgia, circa 2020.

Biden Commutes Sentence of Former Comptroller who Embezzled $53M


Posted originally on Dec 16, 2024 by Martin Armstrong 

Biden confused

President Biden has commuted sentences for 1,499 people and issued 39 pardons. The majority of these commuted sentences were on behalf of people who were placed on home confinement rather than prison during the pandemic years. The people he has chosen to give a second chance seem suspicious.

Dixon, Illinois comptroller Rita Crundwell was found guilty and ADMITTED to funneling $53 million from her city since the 1990s. A career criminal politician, Crundwell opened a bank account in 1990 on behalf of the city of Dixon, but only she had access to the account. Over the decades, Crundwell admitted to transferring money out of that account to her personal accounts. She has admitted to using taxpayer funds to pay her personal credit cards, numerous houses, and personal business expenses included a horse breeding business.

The public servant admitted to created fraudulent invoices to trick Illinois state auditors. Budget deficits were blamed on a shortfall of tax revenues. Her 19-year sentence had already been reduced by eight years and she has been serving the remainder of her sentence on house arrest sine COVID.

“Now, today I anticipate she’s dancing in the streets of Dixon with her commutation, because she just also conned the President of the United States,” said former U.S. Marshal Jason Wojdylo. “This official act undid decades of work.” Wojdylo spent four years on this case and stated the overwhelming nature of her crime made it almost impossible to determine the true amount of stolen funds.

Dixon has delayed infrastructure projects and city officials say it will take decades for the city to recover. Why did Joe Biden pardon this woman who stole from the American public without shame? Considering the 10% for the Big Guy ways of Biden’s own criminal career in politics, he likely sees the $53 million as mere chump change.

US Intelligence Agencies Clear Themselves of Jan 6 Wrongdoing

January 6 was a staged and orchestrated event intended to criminalize Donald Trump and his supporters. There is a slew of evidence pointing to US intelligence interference, with more emerging by the week. US intelligence agencies wasted additional resources to investigate their own bureaus, “FBI’s Handling of its Confidential Human Sources and Intelligence Collection Efforts in the Lead Up to the Jan. 6, 2021 Electoral Certification.” Naturally, US intelligence found no wrongdoing on their end.

Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz announced that over two dozen confidential human sources (CHS) were present at the Capitol on January 6. He admits that three FBI agents were among the crowd but insists there were no undercover officers. Twenty-six CHS agents were also among the crowd, but the report insists only three were authorized to be there. One actually entered the Capitol building while the other two made their way into restricted areas. None of those four agents were charged with committing a crime.

“Our review determined that none of these FBI CHSs was authorized by the FBI to enter the Capitol or a restricted area or to otherwise break the law on January 6, nor was any CHS directed by the FBI to encourage others to commit illegal acts on January 6,” he stated.

Horowitz believes that they have simply “found no evidence in the materials we reviewed or the testimony we received showing or suggesting that the FBI had undercover employees in the various protest crowds, or at the Capitol, on January 6.” The FBI applauded the investigation, which was clearly skewed in its favor, and said they would take additional precautions in January 2025.

FBI Director Christopher Wray announced that he is fleeing his post before Trump takes office. “When Chris Wray first got there back in 2017, the FBI was spying on congressional hill staffers, including the guy who is slated to replace him, and then the day after he announces he’s leaving, this report comes out and confirms what so many of us suspected, that there were these confidential human sources present on Jan. 6,” House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, told Fox News.

Those who read between the lines can see that the DOJ and FBI have been weaponized political tools of the deep state under the Biden-Harris regime. Over 1,265 Americans were charged in connection to the January 6 events. The government used J6 as a premise to weaponize financial institutions to spy on Americans and usurp more power. These agencies are working against the American people for the private interests of the deep state and will never admit to any wrongdoing. It is laughable to think that any agency will deter civil unrest next month at Trump’s inauguration.

Mitt Romney Reflects on a Career of Lightly Held Stances


Posted originally on the CTH on December 16, 2024 | Sundance

So many people have seemingly forgotten that Mitt Romney was the 20212 Republican presidential nominee.  He was crushed by Barack Obama despite record turnout by republican voters who held their nose, yet again, one last time and voted for the last of the GOP ‘next in line’ crew.

As he exits a career in politics, Mitt Romney reflects upon his professional legacy of ‘lightly held stances’ and expert level graciousness in losing; he’s had lots of practice.  As Mitt Romney concedes the Republican party to the MAGA movement, this is somewhat of a reflective moment.  WATCH:

Sunday Talks – Devin Nunes Discusses Kash at FBI and His Role Filtering Out Political Intelligence

Devin Nunes appeared on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo today to discuss Kash Patel as the possible FBI Director and the new role for himself just outlined by President Trump. {Direct Rumble Link}

Devin Nunes will be chairman of the President’s Advisory Board on Intelligence, and he describes his role as recognizing, researching and filtering out the political intelligence products.  Exactly as we suspected. WATCH: 

I’ll work with President Trump to depoliticize America’s intelligence agencies

.

Nunes noted some declassification of prior evidence will be considered and reviewed.

♦ Intel Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson, former counsel to DOJ-NSD Head Mary McCord during the construct of the Carter Page FISA application, testified to a closed session of the House impeachment committee about the CIA whistleblower, the connection to Alexander Vindman and the construct of why Atkinson changed the rules of the CIA to permit anonymous whistleblowers.

That transcript of Atkinson’s testimony was sealed and classified by Adam Schiff. At the time of his testimony, Mary McCord was working for the House impeachment committee.

Start by locating and releasing that transcript. START THERE! It’s a great first document to release.
