Senator JD Vance Vows to Block All DOJ Nominees While Biden Uses Weaponized Justice to Target Political Opposition


Posted originally on the CTH on November 1, 2023 | Sundance

More of this is needed.   Today, Illinois Senator Dick Durbin (D) and Ohio Senator JD Vance (R) confronted each other in the upper chamber over DOJ nominees that Senator Vance refuses to advance with unanimous consent.

Durbin was furious at the blocks JD Vance was putting in front of the Joe Biden nominees for U.S. Attorney and criticized Vance for campaigning on “law and order” while blocking those DOJ nominees advanced by Durbin.  In response, Senator Vance delivered remarks promising to block every DOJ nomination as long as Joe Biden continues weaponizing Main Justice and the USAO nominations to target his political opposition.  WATCH [prompted to the Vance response]:

.

JD Vance has some tenuous network affiliations in his background that give me a little pause; however, on the substance of this issue, he is righteous in this approach.

There has been little, if any, Republican push-back to the radical nature of the onslaught brought forth by Biden, DAG Lisa Monaco and AG Merrick Garland.  Factually the Lawfare tactics have increased in weaponized intensity throughout the Biden term in office.

The Republican House has the ability to block the funding mechanism, and the Republican minority in the Senate have the ability to block the nominees. Until now, we have seen little, if any, effort by either chamber to bring the Biden rogue elements to heel.  Perhaps this is the start.  Regardless, it is at least a step in the right direction.

This is a time of great consequence, deliberate choosing and decisions to be made.

History will long remember where each of the participants in our governmental bodies stand in these moments of crisis.

A based Senator JD Vance is making a good decision.

Senator Rand Paul Opening Statement During Senate Homeland Security Hearing


Posted originally on the CTH on November 1, 2023

During yesterday’s Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee hearing, Kentucky Senator Rand Paul took the opportunity to confront the Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) and FBI with the recent history of their activity.

As noted by Senator Paul, the past several years exhibits clear and irrefutable evidence of the DHS and FBI working collaboratively to conduct surveillance on American citizens, while simultaneously violating the first amendment by coordinating with big tech social media companies on censorship.  WATCH:

Everything Rand Paul says in that statement is factually correct.  However, highlighting just how the game of pretending is conducted in DC, at the end of hearing Senator Rand Paul -joined by Senator Lindsey Graham- voted to approve Jack Lew as Joe Biden’s ambassador to Israel.   Quite a shift in ideological priority considering that Jack Lew was the primary cover-up official responsible for protecting Obama from exposure to the IRS targeting operation against conservatives.

Additionally, prior to his job as Treasury Secretary, and prior to his position as President Obama’s Chief of Staff, and prior to him being Obama’s Budget Director (comical considering Obama never had a budget) Jack Lew served as State Department Director under Hillary Clinton.    It was Lew’s influence that shaped and positioned the failed Obama/Clinton foreign policy toward the Middle East.   Specifically, toward Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya during their upheaval, the Arab Spring.   How did that work out for our interests?

For those who believe the bankers control everything, Jack Lew is a case study.

President Obama’s first chief of staff was Rahm Emanuel, he sat on the board of troubled federal mortgage giant Freddie Mac.  Obama’s second CoS was Bill Daley, a previous top executive at financial firm J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.   Next came Jack Lew.

From 2006-2008, Jack Lew was chief operating officer of Citibank’s alternative investments division. And it was his division that made billions of dollars betting “U.S. homeowners would not be able to make their mortgage payments.”

Lew  made millions at Citi, including a bonus of nearly $950,000 in 2009 just  a few months after the bank received billions of dollars in a taxpayer  rescue, according to disclosure forms filed with the federal government.    Jack Lew was CEO of Citibank’s hedge fund of “credit default swaps“,  the financial tool that devastated the housing equity market and created the subsequent economic collapse.

Notice the pattern?

I digress…

Hey, at least Senator Paul can talk eloquently about the constitutional protections being usurped in real time.   Doing something about it, not so much.

Privileged Ivy League Students in US Support Terrorism Re-Posted Nov 1, 2023 By Martin Armstrong


Hamas is a terrorist organization. That is not a conspiracy theory and they are not misunderstood. Colleges across the US have erupted in pro-terrorism chaos. Now what if I replaced “Hamas” with the “Taliban,” and asked college kids their unvalued opinions. As you can see from the video above, these students are eager to fund THE TALIBAN due to the anti-American rhetoric spreading across the US educational system.

Hedge fund billionaire Leon Cooperman is an alumnus and major funder of Columbia University. Cooperman has gifted Columbia over $50 million dollars as one of their largest donors. “I think these kids at the colleges have s–t for brains,” he explained to a reporter after declaring he will no longer give Columbia another penny. “We have one reliable ally in the Middle East — that’s Israel. We only have one democracy in the Middle East — that’s Israel, okay? And we have one economy tolerant of different people — gays, lesbians, etc. And that’s Israel,” the 80-year-old chairman and CEO of Omega Advisors, a New York-based investment firm with over $3.3 billion in assets, continued.

Taliban 300x201

Both Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump have promised to deport students on visas promoting terrorism on campus. “You may have a right to say certain things, but that’s material support to terrorism if you’re saying you’re part of what they’re doing, so we deactivated the Students for Justice in Palestine and were the first state to step up to the plate and do that,” DeSantis stated. “They don’t have a right to be here on a student visa. It’s a privilege to be here on a student visa. There’s a lot of Americans that would probably want those slots. There’s other foreign nationals who actually like the United States who would probably want [one].

It is a shame to see how utterly clueless the next generation will be. Government-controlled curriculum has brainwashed the youth into believing the new norm narrative of white guilt and a genderless society that demonizes traditional values. Clearly, they are not teaching the kids history or economics. I assume these will be the first people lining up to receive their chips and digital IDs. Education must begin at home with parents providing a moral code of conduct for the youth because America’s education system is guaranteed to steer them in the wrong direction.

Weird Story – Colorado Man, Diego Barajas Medina (20), Found Dead Loaded with Heavy Weapons in Amusement Park


Posted originally on the CTH on October 30, 2023 | Sundance

This is an alarming and weird story.  A man was found dead in the women’s bathroom at the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park in Colorado.  He was later identified as Diego Barajas Medina, 20-years-old, from Colorado.

Apparently, he entered the amusement park overnight, on October 28, and was loaded with weapons and bombs.  However, his body was found the next morning with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.

Read the story, it just sounds crazy weird – emphasis mine.

COLORADO – A man died at the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park over the weekend after he illegally entered the park in the Colorado high country after hours when no employees or people were present, law enforcement officials say.

The man has been identified as a 20-year-old from the nearby town of Carbondale, although officials did not immediately release his name. A cause of death has also not been released but the Garfield County Coroner is investigating the death as a suicide.

His body was found in a women’s restroom next to a message written on the wall that read, “I am not a killer, I just wanted to get into the caves.”

According to the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office, the man was dressed in black-colored tactical clothing, with patches and emblems that gave the appearance of being associated with law enforcement. The suspect was heavily armed with a semi-automatic rifle and semi-automatic handgun and multiple loaded magazines for both weapons. The guns were ghost guns or self-made weapons.

He was wearing body armor and what appeared to be a ballistic helmet, according to investigators. Multiple improvised explosive devices, or IEDs, were discovered with the suspect and a vehicle associated with him. Authorities also found several fake hand grenades in addition to the real and fake pipe bombs. The Grand Junction Bomb Squad responded to the scene, and they rendered the devices safe.

The Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park was swept by members of the bomb squad as well as operators from the Garfield County All Hazard Response Team to ensure no other IEDs were planted around the park or rides. Investigators said that no one in the public was at risk and that his actions were limited to the property of Glenwood Caverns.

“While this investigation is still ongoing and very active it is important to realize that given the amount of weaponry, ammunition, and explosive devices found, the suspect could have implemented an attack of devastating proportions upon our community and first responders,” said Garfield County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Walt Stowe.

The man trespassed onto the property overnight while it was closed and was discovered during the park’s pre-opening maintenance and security inspections, Glenwood Caverns said in a statement. The death did not take place near any of the park’s secure areas and was not related to any rides or attractions, the statement continued. (read more)

It’s Just Our Turn


Armstrong Economics Blog/Geopolitical Re-Posted Oct 28, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

This is not my only source about terrorist cells moving into the USA because Biden has opened the borders. The open border has had two objectives. Democrats in Texas are already pushing that illegal aliens should be allowed to vote. They are being joined nationally and Biden will do an executive order to allow them to vote pre-2024  if we even get to an election.

The Democrats see this as changing America to wipe out the Republican opponents. The LEFT has determined to end freedom and democracy just like Zelinsky – it will be their way or no way! I have been to Texas recently, where people are concerned about the flood of illegal aliens.

However, they have DELIBERATELY allowed terrorist cells to enter so they can justify more restraints upon our freedom to even move. Welcome to the decline and fall of the United States. Don’t get upset. Communism fell in 1989. It’s just our turn since there are 34 years to this cycle.

It looks like the manhunt for the Maine mass shooter Robert Card is over.

Apparently, his body was found near Lisbon where he abandoned his vehicle.  A self-inflicted gunshot to the head.

(Daily Mail) – Maine mass shooter Robert Card has been found dead in the woods with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head, multiple sources told CNN.

Card, 40, was found near Lisbon, where his car was abandoned shortly after Wednesday’s massacre.

Eighteen people died when Card, an army reservist who had suffered a recent mental breakdown, opened fire at a bowling alley and bar in Lewiston.

Card went on the run, sparking a 48-hour manhunt. (link)

Why Are Death and Disability Rising Among Young Americans? | Opinion


Posted Originally on Oct 26, 2023 at 6:00 AM

FLCCC’s Dr. Pierre Kory and co-author Mary Beth Pfeiffer have an op-ed in Newsweek magazine this week, after penning an article in USA Today in August. 

The new opinion piece highlights the alarming increase in the number of American adults unable to work — up to 3.5 million since January 2020 and a staggering 1.5 million just this year alone.

To date, there is no government-funded research into or explanation for this rise — Dr. Kory and Ms. Pfeiffer call for an unbiased, nonpartisan investigation into the trend, and a deeper analysis of COVID vaccine-related injuries and deaths.

While Newsweek’s opinion section has opened up to diverse perspectives and encouraged debate, there has been no appetite for this line of inquiry about COVID vaccines – until now. Creatively crafted to not overtly state the (glaringly obvious) cause, but offering up key suggestions, this article has the ability to reach an even wider audience and not only start the conversation, but hopefully the investigation as well. As a result, the messages so critical to FLCCC will extend further and can spur action.

“FLCCC is dedicated to driving awareness of these grave health concerns across the political media divide,” said Dr. Kory. “We are blazing a trail with new audiences who are not seeing this information anywhere else.”

Our summer op-ed in USA Today had a readership reach of 2.6 million. With this recent placement in Newsweek (1.1 million daily readers), we are demonstrating that FLCCC is uniquely positioned to shine a light on the destructive impact of COVID vaccines. Indeed, as a data-driven medical organization with treatment guidelines for COVID, long COVID, and vaccine injury, we are distinctly qualified to highlight this vital issue, bring it into the public conversation, and onto the U.S. political agenda as the presidential election heats up.  

Please share this article with your network and consider making a donation to help us expose the devastating reality behind mass COVID vaccinations. With your support, we can advocate for change and encourage policymakers to pursue the investigations needed to inform and protect the American public.

On behalf of the health of all, we thank you.

Ken Paxton Asks Court for Restraining Order to Stop Biden Administration from Cutting Down Border Barriers and Barbed Wire


Posted originally on the CTH on October 27, 2023 | Sundance |

Earlier today Mike Lee sent this little bit of raw data from the border, “In the last 4 weeks alone (since the beginning of FY2024), the Border Patrol in the Rio Grande Sector has apprehended 5 illegal immigrants from Afghanistan, 19 from Syria, and 75 from China. It’s not a stretch—in fact, it’s putting it mildly—to say “they might not mean us well.” {link}  It is very concerning to think about who is walking into our country.

Earlier today, Texas AG Ken Paxton also asked the court for a restraining order against Joe Biden’s administration who are taking down border barriers and cutting through barbed wire in order to increase the flow of illegal aliens. [Court Filing Here] AG Paxton wants the court to stop Biden from opening the border.

TEXAS – Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed a motion for a temporary restraining order on an emergency basis after federal agents escalated their destruction of Texas’s barrier at the State’s border with Mexico. The federal government’s renewed effort to destroy Texas’s barrier and assist aliens’ entry into the country follows just days after Texas filed a lawsuit against the Biden Administration’s Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”), DHS Secretary Mayorkas, and other agencies for numerous documented incidents of barrier destruction and occasions on which federal agents facilitated aliens’ mass entry during a severe immigration surge in recent months. 

Texas is seeking an order that would enjoin federal agents from cutting, destroying, damaging, or otherwise interfering with Texas’s concertina wire fence. (link)

Biden: If There Were Not An Israel We’d Have to Invent One


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Oct 27, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

For those wondering if the US is using Israel as a vassal state, simply look at what President Biden has been spewing since the 80s. “If there were not an Israel, we’d have to invent one,” Biden first said during a Senate session in 1986 after sending Israel $3 billion. Straight from the horse’s mouth, America funds Israel “to protect US interests in the region.”

Israel is a strategic military base for the West. It permitted America to keep an eye on not just oil but opium as well. America did not need to “create” an Israel since Britain basically did back in 1948. Israel is not a charity and the West does not fund it because of religion. Yes, Israel was zoned for those of Jewish faith after World War II, but the true reason it was created was to provide the Allies with power in the Middle East.

America alone has provided Israel with $158 billion since 1948, prior to the Hamas attack. This money was not a loan but rather an investment. The US is now sending the nation over $100 billion and counting. Without Israel, Western forces would have no reason to patrol the seas or surround the region. Power and money are the only aspects that motivate governments. No one is funding this war out of concern for the people.

This is why the West immediately began building up Israel’s military. France provided Israel with the ability to build nuclear weapons near Dimona in the Negev Desert. When this became public knowledge in 1960, Eisenhower feigned shock, and the media began reporting that the factory was being used to create textiles rather than nuclear weapons.

Former French Foreign Minister Maurice Couve de Murville admitted in December 1960 that France assisted Israel in creating a “replica of [the] Marcoule plant.” France needed to protect its colonies in North Africa at the time and relied on Israeli intelligence. France provided the raw materials and arms while the US aided with financing through tax-deductible charities. Egypt had nationalized the Suez Canal, and France and Britain considered invading to seize the area. Then the former Soviet Union threatened to intervene and the world was ready to use the Middle East as their battleground. Now Russia is funding a nuclear plant near that area on behalf of Egypt. And yet, Israel’s current policy is to neither confirm nor deny if they have a nuclear program. Look at history and you will see how everything has been unfolding in accordance to the war cycle.

So yes, Israel became a vassal state after the Second World War in preparation for the third.

Christians are on the FBI Watchlist


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Oct 27, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Spread the love

America was once a Christian nation with shared values, morals, and traditions. The government has done everything possible to remove any mention of God, as there can be no higher entity. This goes far beyond separating the church from state. Christian beliefs have been demonized with this woke agenda that goes against all mainstream religions. Worse, a leaked FBI memo reveals that Christians are being watched and labeled “radical traditionalists” and “potential terrorists.”

“If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first.” John 15:18

The FBI has been sending undercover agents into churches, predominately Catholic Churches. “Interest of Racially or Ethnically Motivated Violent Extremists in Radical-Traditionalist Catholic Ideology Almost Certainly Presents New Mitigation Opportunities,” was leaked in January but no one has been held responsible and Christians are still being targeted by the government.

The FBI deemed pro-life supporters as terrorists. Why? This clearly violates the constitution and shows that the government wants to dismantle religion.

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Who authorized FBI agents to attend Sunday masses and treat Christians as domestic terrorists? Pro-abortionists were permitted to interrupt church services, screaming, “Jesus hates you! Fund abortion, not cops!” Now if that happened in a synagogue or a mosque, those people would be arrested for a hate crime. Soros and the Open Society Foundation openly funds pro-abortion protests and rallies. Alex Soros commented in 2019, “Far-right and anti-abortion groups around the world are emboldened by the Trump administration’s extreme policies that are harming vulnerable groups and undermining global health.” They are aiming to group religion and politics together. The Open Society Foundations spent millions to repeal abortion restrictions in the US and Europe, and it was successful in repealing some restrictions in Ireland. Yet, the parishioners are seen as violent terrorists? The FBI has truly become Biden’s Gestapo as conservative views are not permitted under his rule. The FBI infiltrated American churches without just cause. Nothing is sacred anymore.
