Senate Leader John Thune Tells President Trump, “There aren’t enough Republican votes to end CR filibuster”


Posted originally on CTH on November 3, 2025 | Sundance |

Senate Majority Leader John Thune told reporters he informed President Trump, “The votes aren’t there” to kill the filibuster.  Ergo, the govt shutdown will continue.

The issue is somewhat frustrating for those who have followed DC events closely.  The Democrats hated the Big Beautiful Bill budget and spending legislation, so the Republicans had to suspend the filibuster to pass it.  However, the Democrats are blocking the BBB budget and spending legislation by shutting down government, and the Republicans will not suspend the filibuster to open it.

WASHINGTON DC – Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Monday there’s not enough support among Republican senators to eliminate the filibuster as President Donald Trump ramps up pressure to change the chamber’s rules to allow the simple-majority passage of legislation. “The votes aren’t there,” Thune told reporters.

Thune said he had spoken to Trump about the issue — he didn’t specify when — and questioned whether his campaign against the filibuster should come as a surprise. (more)

The Moonbat leftists are not the biggest problem; they never have been. They are ideologues, mostly. Insufferable, stupid, violent at times, but easy to spot.  Remember, Democrats quest for power; Republicans quest for money. Always underline this, because it’s really important.

The Moonbat leftists seek power, seek control of your life, and they are open in their insufferably stupid arguments to get there. When they start to lose, they turn violent. This is their history.

That said, they are not the most dangerous.

The professional Republicans are more dangerous, because their priority is money. As a result, their approaches, goals, objectives and arguments can be purchased.

Republicans have no interests, goals or objectives, nor allegiances, that supersede their primary objective – getting money, and growing their wealth.

Democrats will come at you with a knife, a gun or a baseball bat. You can see them. The professional Republican guy standing beside you, however, is willing to take a payment to shoot you in the ear when you don’t see it coming.

This is also why it seems like Democrats stick together, and Republicans split. Democrats are chasing a common goal, a collective goal – power. Republicans are chasing a commonality, yes, but an individual goal – money, their wealth.

Donors contribute to the Democrat agenda because their interest is to benefit from power. Republicans modify their agenda to benefit donors, because their goal is money.

Democrats stay on task, power. Republicans are flexible, money.

You enter a war against Leftists with extreme danger. However, the danger is not the war in front of you, it’s the army beside you waiting to get a payment from the enemy in front of you.

Out of a group of 1,000 Democrats, 900+ will join in to defend a weakened Moonbat leftist (see Kimmel).

Out of a group of 1,000 Republicans, you will find, maybe, 5 willing to cover your back regardless of how much bribery is put in front of them.

Remember this, understand this, and the reality of who presents the most danger to us is accurately framed.

Republicans do not simply snatch defeat from the jaws of victory; they sell defeat to the highest bidder!

It is interesting to watch Senate Republicans proclaim how agencies like the DOJ and FBI have lost the institutional trust of the American people due to corruption, while simultaneously the same Senate Republicans never note the trust loss within their party as a result of their willful blindness to it.

Wax on….  Wax off.   Today is another Monday.

AP Report: FBI Leadership Fired 20 Kneelers from George Floyd Protest Era


Posted originally on CTH on September 27, 2025 | Sundance 

The AP is quoting two sources in saying the group of Washington DC FBI agents, that did the kneeling publicity stunt showing political support for the George Floyd protest, have been released from employment.

(VIA AP) – The FBI has fired agents who were photographed kneeling at a protest in Washington that followed the 2020 death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers, three people familiar with the matter said Friday.

The bureau reassigned the agents last spring but has since fired them, said the people, who insisted on anonymity to discuss personnel matters with The Associated Press.

The number of employees dismissed was not immediately clear, but two people said it was roughly 20. (read more)

Federal Grand Jury Indicts Three Radical Leftists for Targeting ICE Officer


Posted originally on CTH on September 27, 2025 | Sundance

Interestingly, it is Dept of Homeland Security Investigations, not the FBI, leading the case.

Three suspects, likely Antifa affiliates, followed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer to his home in California, and then livestreamed the location calling on followers to join them in protest outside his home while shouting anti-ICE messaging.

The Dept of Homeland Security (DHS) investigated and arrested the individuals and a federal grand jury has indicted the trio.  One count of conspiracy and a second count of targeting a federal officer.

DHSI took the cell phones of the suspects and has the phone contact information. Antifa affiliates are freaking out.

Central District of California – LOS ANGELES – A federal grand jury has returned a two-count indictment charging three women – two from Southern California and one from Colorado – with following a United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent home, livestreaming their pursuit and then posting the victim’s home address on Instagram, the Justice Department announced today. 

The grand jury on Tuesday and unsealed today charged following defendants with one count of conspiracy and one count of publicly disclosing the personal information of a federal agent:

    • Cynthia Raygoza, 37, of Riverside;
    • Ashleigh Brown, 38, of Aurora, Colorado; and
    • Sandra Carmona Samane, 25, of Panaroma City.

Brown and Samane have been arrested on federal criminal complaints. Brown, who also is charged in a separate case with assault on a federal officer, is in federal custody without bond. Samane is free on $5,000 bond. Their arraignments are scheduled for September 30 and October 9, respectively. Law enforcement is continuing its search for Raygoza.

“Our brave federal agents put their lives on the line every day to keep our nation safe,” said Acting United States Attorney Bill Essayli. “The conduct of these defendants are deeply offensive to law enforcement officers and their families. If you threaten, dox, or harm in any manner one of our agents or employees, you will face prosecution and prison time.”

According to the indictment, on August 28, 2025, the defendants followed the victim – an ICE agent – from the Civic Center in downtown Los Angeles to his personal residence. The defendants livestreamed on their Instagram accounts their pursuit of the victim and provided directions as they followed the victim home, encouraging their viewers to share the livestream. Their Instagram accounts used to livestream the event were “ice_out_of_la,” “defendmesoamericanculture,” and “corn_maiden_design.”

Upon arriving at the victim’s personal residence, the defendants shouted to bystanders while livestreaming on Instagram that their “neighbor is ICE,” “la migra lives here,” and “ICE lives on your street and you should know.” 

The defendants publicly disclosed on Instagram the victim’s home address and told viewers, “Come on down.”  (read more)

Antifa isn’t the only ones freaking out.  DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is stepping up to use DHSI enforcement as the federal officers in charge.  President Trump is coordinating with Noem.

Now things get interesting….

With Secretary Kristi Noem and DHS Investigations taking charge of things, AG Pam Bondi runs to the television.

.

Over the past several weeks CTH has increasingly heard that AG Pam Bondi is the problem within the system.  One senior administration official who relayed that view is unimpeachable.  CTH suspects President Trump’s outwardly expressed frustration last week may indicate that viewpoint has now penetrated through the Susie Wiles filter and reached the oval office.

AG Pam Bondi Promises to Do Better


Posted originally on CTH on September 27, 2025 | Sundance

We accept things as they are, not as we would prefer them to be.

In an almost identical way to President Trump’s October 2020 speech where he was informed by AG Bill Barr that instead of direct investigations of the Russiagate operators Barr was appointing John Durham as an official special counsel; similarly, someone likely informed President Trump last week the EDVA was not going to take legal action against the same actors. Once bitten, twice shy.

President Trump responded publicly to change the dynamic with a very well publicized social media post calling out Pam Bondi. Soon thereafter Lindsey Halligan was appointed to replace EDVA U.S. Attorney Erik Siebert.

In essence the coach called out performative expert Pam Bondi for coasting. Lindsey Halligan came off the bench and hip-checked Pam Bondi into the boards, taking the puck and scoring an easy, albeit controversial, empty netter.

AG Bondi, ever concerned about her position in the hierarchy of Oval Office appearances, realized that ultimately all the performative preening and posturing was moot if the arena crowd tired of her performances. Actions speak louder than words, and she is all words. After all, if you look at things objectively, politics not substance is her skillset…. and yes, the boards give bruises.

Following the hip-check, Pam Bondi heads to center ice and throws off her gloves:

AG PAM BONDI – “I have witnessed the continued onslaught of violence perpetrated against ICE officers across our country. The Department of Justice will not stand idly by in the face of such lawlessness. At my direction, I am deploying DOJ agents to ICE facilities—and wherever ICE comes under siege—to safeguard federal agents, protect federal property, and immediately arrest all individuals engaged in any federal crime.

Pursuant to President Trump’s recent executive action, I am also instructing the Joint Terrorism Task Forces across the country to disrupt and investigate all entities and individuals engaged in acts of domestic terrorism, including the repeated acts of violence and obstruction against federal agents.

The Department of Justice will seek the most serious available charges against all participants in these criminal mobs, including conspiracy offenses, assault offenses, civil disorder offenses, and terrorism offenses. While these never-ending attacks are designed to break our will, they only strengthen our resolve to complete the work begun.

To that end, I have directed the FBI, DEA, ATF, and USMS to accelerate our efforts alongside the Department of Homeland Security to locate, apprehend, detain, prosecute, and remove all illegal aliens present in our country. The rule of law will prevail.” {SOURCE}

The Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF) offices are located within every FBI field office around the country.

The job is not hard.  When the crowd appears to impede, block or disrupt federal ICE operations, simply take out the zip-tie handcuffs, lawfully and deliberately detain the crowd one-by-one, load them onto busses and take them to the closest federal court facility to be charged and booked.

Then, prosecute with maximum federal penalty applied (including fines).  Give each law-breaking protester a criminal booking record, post the mugshots and identities of the arrested individuals using local public information officers.  Assist employers with understanding of the activity of the suspects and provide the opportunity to make shame great again.

It’s not complicated.

Repeat as needed.

“I’d like to thank Kash Patel, and the outstanding members of the FBI, for their brilliant work on the recent Indictment of the Worst FBI Director in the History of our Country, James “Dirty Cop” Comey. The level of enthusiasm by the FBI was incredible but only caused by the fact that they knew Comey for what he is, and was, a total SLIMEBALL!

Again, thank you to the FBI and, specifically, those that worked on this case with U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan, and the DOJ. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DJT” {link}

Have We Forgotten How The Senate Works? – Navigating the BBB


Posted originally on CTH on June 16, 2025 | Sundance

I’m becoming increasingly convinced that people on the ConInc side of the conversation also need to pretend not to know things.

There is an increased sentiment of frustration toward President Donald Trump being espoused, and obviously that will be amplified by those who want to use a narrative of “increased sentiment of frustration toward President Trump.”

The part that surprises me is the part where people seem to have forgotten the purpose of the U.S. Senate.

CONTEXT – Currently there is a Big Beautiful Bill (BBB) in the senate, the culmination of years of work by President Trump and his team together with politicians in congress. There is no smaller BBB, there is no modified BBB, there is only one big comprehensive package of initiatives and priorities for President Trump’s agenda. One Big Beautiful Bill.

That’s it. Just this one legislative priority that has all the stuff Donald Trump promised in the 2024 election. It’s all in one bill; all of it. As a consequence, President Trump needs this bill to pass congress; there is no fallback position; there is no alternative; there is no safer option. The BBB is an all or nothing swing for the fences.

GAINING VOTES – This BBB is the legislative package approach that President Trump accepted. As a consequence whatever it takes to get that BBB legislation passed, is exactly what we should expect to see done. Remember, this is a legislative construct that only targets REPUBLICAN VOTES. Republicans control every element of this BBB discussion.

People not happy about President Trump remarks about illegal-alien farm workers. Well, President Trump is buying gaining the votes of Big Ag state senators.

People not happy about President Trump support for Israel. Well, President Trump is buying gaining the votes of Big War senators.

People not happy about President Trump support for more Ukraine weapons against a peace initiative targeting Vladimir Putin. Again, President Trump is buying gaining the votes of the defense contractor senators.

These are just a few examples of stuff in the background.  The passage of the BBB is a priority for President Trump and every Republican senator knows this.  Every single republican senator is willing to blackmail President Trump to get support for their vote.

People not happy about (____fill in blank___) as a Trump compromise, need to understand there is no alternative to the BBB that contains all of the legislative priorities of Trump. If the bill fails, he fails. Whatever is needed for passage will be done.

If doing ‘whatever it takes‘ hurts our worldview, ideological preferences or even, wait for it, feelings, welcome to politics.

President Donald Trump – “Our Nation’s ICE Officers have shown incredible strength, determination, and courage as they facilitate a very important mission, the largest Mass Deportation Operation of Illegal Aliens in History. Every day, the Brave Men and Women of ICE are subjected to violence, harassment, and even threats from Radical Democrat Politicians, but nothing will stop us from executing our mission, and fulfilling our Mandate to the American People. ICE Officers are herewith ordered, by notice of this TRUTH, to do all in their power to achieve the very important goal of delivering the single largest Mass Deportation Program in History.”

“In order to achieve this, we must expand efforts to detain and deport Illegal Aliens in America’s largest Cities, such as Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York, where Millions upon Millions of Illegal Aliens reside. These, and other such Cities, are the core of the Democrat Power Center, where they use Illegal Aliens to expand their Voter Base, cheat in Elections, and grow the Welfare State, robbing good paying Jobs and Benefits from Hardworking American Citizens.

These Radical Left Democrats are sick of mind, hate our Country, and actually want to destroy our Inner Cities — And they are doing a good job of it! There is something wrong with them. That is why they believe in Open Borders, Transgender for Everybody, and Men playing in Women’s Sports — And that is why I want ICE, Border Patrol, and our Great and Patriotic Law Enforcement Officers, to FOCUS on our crime ridden and deadly Inner Cities, and those places where Sanctuary Cities play such a big role. You don’t hear about Sanctuary Cities in our Heartland!”

“I want our Brave ICE Officers to know that REAL Americans are cheering you on every day. The American People want our Cities, Schools, and Communities to be SAFE and FREE from Illegal Alien Crime, Conflict, and Chaos. That’s why I have directed my entire Administration to put every resource possible behind this effort, and reverse the tide of Mass Destruction Migration that has turned once Idyllic Towns into scenes of Third World Dystopia. Our Federal Government will continue to be focused on the REMIGRATION of Aliens to the places from where they came, and preventing the admission of ANYONE who undermines the domestic tranquility of the United States.

To ICE, FBI, DEA, ATF, the Patriots at Pentagon and the State Department, you have my unwavering support. Now go, GET THE JOB DONE!” DJT

Pelosi Dumps AI Shares

NVIDIA Y Array 1 28 25

COMMENT: Well, we now know that Pelosi is using Socrates. You said the AI bubble would end in January, and Pelosi sold her AI stocks at the end of December. You just said that volcanos will become active on Greg Hunter’s show, and in days, they say there is a hidden volcano a mile wide off the California coast that is about to erupt. Did you ever advise Pelosi?

Jay

ANSWER: No, I have never advised Pelosi. If she tunes into Socrates, I do not know. I doubt she would use her real name. As far as volcanoes are concerned, it is a simple correlation that they cluster around solar minimum. Some have suggested an increase in Gama Rays during the solar minimum, which penetrates the earth and perhaps stimulates volcanoes. I cannot know if that theory is correct or wrong. All I can say is that there is a correlation that aligns with the solar minimum,
