Speaker Mike Johnson Vows to Pass Future Ukraine Spending With Democrat Votes to Support


Posted originally on the CTH on March 14, 2024 | Sundance

This should not come as a surprise.

Facing an ever-diminishing number of Republican representatives willing to support Joe Biden’s demand for massive and unending spending for Ukraine, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson now tells DC media he will pass the spending with Democrat votes.

Retention and continuation of spending for Ukraine is the ultimate example of a UniParty Congress.  The powers that control the mechanics of spending taxpayer money simply don’t care how much opposition exists amid the taxpayers.  They will fund Ukraine, and public opinion means naught.

Emphasis mine, because there’s an ancillary story.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, West Virginia — Speaker Mike Johnson told POLITICO that he expects to pass a future Ukraine assistance bill with Democratic votes, an acknowledgment of the persistent resistance to any new aid within the GOP.

Johnson said in a Thursday interview at the House Republican retreat that aid to both Ukraine and Israel could come up as one or even two separate bills. He said he anticipates it would happen using the House’s suspension calendar, which he’s used often in recent days to overcome pushback from his own party. (read more)

This type of outlook and UniParty ideology is what leads to this next dose of sunlight.  President Trump refused to attend the Sulphur Springs retreat and talk to the Republicans gathered there.

(Daily Mail) – Former President Donald Trump rebuffed an offer to speak at the House GOP retreat in West Virginia, instead choosing to appear at a Florida court case related to his handling of classified documents.

The former president joined more than 100 House Republicans who chose to skip out their annual retreat, where GOP leadership hopes to get its free-wheeling conference behind a united message after months of inner turmoil.

Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters on Thursday he will impress upon members the importance of ‘stand[ing] together’ as they discuss their strategy on the economy, border and foreign policy.
The only way to turn it around is to stop the fighting, so says the speaker.

‘Everyone says the next election cycle is the most important one of our lifetimes. We’re all accustomed to saying that, we say it every election cycle. Everybody knows this one truly is,’ Johnson said.

‘We have entire industries, sectors in the economy facing existential threats … the world is a tinderbox right now, because our stature on the world stage has been diminished,’ he went on. ‘There are so many problems.’

‘We have to stand together stick together. Get the job done,’ said Johnson. I’m absolutely convinced if we do that. They’re going to expand our house majority give us the Senate and the Republicans will take the White House as well and then we will all be in a much better mood next January because the agenda will change 180 degrees.’

But a stay at the plush Greenbrier Resort in the Allegheny Mountains was not enough to entice more than half of House Republicans. (read more)

The MAGA influence is fracturing the Republican apparatus.  The traditional GOPe of Wall Street and Multinational donors is now about half of the Republican conference.  The other half is MAGA-minded.

It’s progress, but painfully slow.  The Ukraine funding issue has helped to identify the two groups more clearly; however, it is going to take a lot more effort to remove the remaining GOPe globalists.  Keep fighting.

The US Border SLOWLY Becoming a Bipartisan Issue


Posted originally on Mar 14, 2024 By Martin Armstrong

The US border crisis is slowly, very slowly, becoming a bipartisan issue for the government. Blue cities and states have pleaded for help in recent months as crime rises and their budgets implode. Still, the majority of Democrats have not broken rank with their party regarding the border crisis. The House recently voted to implement national security measures, and while all 212 Republicans voted in favor, 193 Democrats voted against any attempt to secure the border.

Thirteen members (7 Republicans and 6 Democrats) did not vote, which means 14 Democrats were brave enough to break rank and side with the people. Democrats in favor of national security include Reps. Don Davis (D-NC), Jared Moskowitz (D-FL), Yadira Caraveo (D-CO), Angie Craig (D-MN), Henry Cuellar (D-TX), Sharice Davids (D-KS), Jared Golden (D-ME), Steven Horsford (D-NV), Greg Landsman (D-OH), Susie Lee (D-NV), Frank Mrvan (D-IN), Mary Peltola (D-AK), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (D-WA), and Eric Sorensen (D-IL).

The GOP-led House has been met with fierce opposition from Schumer’s Democrat-led Senate that is hell-bent on securing blue votes through open border policies. The House had even voted for the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas after he permitted the invasion of America, but the Senate stopped that from happening. The House is asking for the absolute bare minimum in terms of border security, such as prohibiting violent offenders from re-entering America and ensuring that migrants are held to the standard of law as American citizens.

Henry Cuellar of Texas is attempting to garner support for border security within his party. “I have always believed that Democrats can be strong on border security while also respecting the rights of migrants to claim asylum,” he published on social media. Rep. Colin Allred (D-Dallas) agreed with Cuellar and criticized his party for permitting crime ahead of the election. “The cynicism of saying that I don’t want to pass a package that will help us address a problem because I want to run on that in November is unacceptable,” Alred boldly stated.

Congress has passed more laws and provided more funding for Ukraine’s border than America’s. What the Democrats do not understand is that their voter base is beginning to realize the severity of the immigrant crisis. A Pew Research study from February 2024 found that 73% of Democrats believe the government is not doing a good job handling the border crisis. However, significantly more Democrats than Republicans think people are entering our nation illegally for better opportunities. The majority of Democrats do not want to build a wall nor do they believe immigration should be curbed, rather, they believe there should be more opportunities for people to legally enter the nation. Soon they will see that is simply not feasible economically or socially.

Slowly but surely, those who vehemently deny the crisis at the US-Mexico border will begin to see the crisis unfold before their eyes. The Democrats will not break rank unless they believe their voter base will support their policies.

Buck Passes – Representative Ken Buck Announces He Quits, Effective Next Week


Posted originally on the CTH on March 12, 2024 | Sundance

Assuming that Ken Buck did not get tapped on the shoulder by the USIC for zipper problems, a rather substantial assumption all things considered, perhaps the Colorado representative just wanted to give his UniParty allies a pre-election day assist at flipping the House.

[Source Link]

Fox News – Colorado U.S. Representative Ken Buck announced on Tuesday that he we will resign from the House by the end of next week.

[…] Buck has served in the U.S. House of Representatives since November 2014 and is currently assigned to the House Judiciary Committee and Foreign Affairs Committee.

Buck was also one of three House Republicans who opposed the impeachment of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

Buck previously announced he was not running for another term. His resignation will squeeze the GOP’s majority even more.

The breakdown will be 431 members with 218 Republicans and 213 Democrats. Now, the GOP will only be able to lose two votes of their own on any given issue.  (read more)

In related news, the people around Joe Biden have submitted their fiscal year 2025 budget proposal to congress. [pdf here] The ridiculous spending request is $7.3 trillion, that’s TRILLION, which is $1 trillion more than this year.

While jaws are agape at the insanity of such a spending proposal [NPR outline], let me remind everyone that the people behind Biden fully expect a Central Bank Digital Currency to pave the way for unlimited spending.

The global cleaving has a purpose and benefit that is much larger than just eliminating the dollar as a lesser value trade currency.  Digital money can be valued and/or devalued by those who express “full faith and credit” in the same institutions that manufacture jobs, GDP and inflation data…. all of which determine national value.

Just as they define the new “western democracy,” so too can they define the value of the leader nation in the new “western democracy.”  Hail Hydra!

Feel better now Comrades?

…Let’s Go Trump!

Special Counsel Robert Hur Testifies Elements of Biden and Trump Classified Documents Cases are Identical, But Biden Mental Acquity Made “Intent” Element Difficult


Posted originally on the CTH on March 12, 2024 | Sundance 

Regarding the handling of ‘classified documents’ Special Counsel Robert Hur testified today that President Trump and Vice-President Biden had identical outcomes.  However, whereas Donald Trump is cognitively normal, Joe Biden is suffering from a diminished mental state, frequent confusion and absent remembering.  Therefore, the elements needed for “intent” in the criminal statute did not apply to Biden.

Donald Trump is fine; Joe Biden has lost his marbles.  According to prosecutor Robert Hur, that explains why there are two tiers of justice amid an identical set of infractions.  As a consequence, the American people are expected to be okay with the reasoning for a DOJ double-standard.  WATCH:

.

The full hearing video is below, but the essential element is just repeated.   (1) Biden lied or could not remember on purpose; and (2) there are two tiers of justice, and the DOJ is prepared to defend their non-prosecution decision based entirely on cognitive “intent.”

FULL HEARING:

ps. People might be critical of CTH not necessarily posting some of the relevant material of any specific news day.  The criticism is fair and well received.  Thank you. However, please understand that while I never talk about what is happening behind the scenes, more than 50% of my daily awake time is now spent in consultant conversation with those in positions of influence who need their spear tips sharpened.  I am happily and purposefully breaking down the silo walls.  All good is happening according to His plan, not mine.

HR7521 – The TikTok Ban Law (as written) is NOT About Banning TikTok, It’s About Information Control – pdf Included


Posted originally on the CTH on March 12, 2024 | Sundance

I swear by all that I know to be righteous and accurate, the combined willpower of the UniParty in Washington DC is not targeting TikTok from the perspective of concern over data collection.  Instead, the DC system -which is to say the USIC- is using the auspices of TikTok to expand the reach of government censorship and control information.

This is a domestic information space battle, using the guise of TikTok as a baseline for justification.  How do we know? You only need to look at the mechanism of the law as it is written, the compliance section, and the definitions they are using to see they are not targeting data collection.  [pdf of HR7521 HERE]

If TikTok data collection was the issue, the law would be structured to ban foreign data collection.  That’s not what this is.  This is a law written to give the Executive Branch the power to define any platform as “foreign owned” by the service provider (even if domestic) and the substance of the content contained and/or distributed.  This has to be stopped.

[Source pdf, Page 8 – HR7521]

Read the law as written through the prism of “Information Control,” not the prism of data collection.  The law is designed to control information, not data collection.

As readers are well aware, the USIC is in alignment (I would say control) with almost all U.S-based social media platforms.  This is why/how DHS is operating in synergy with those same systems.  This is also the motive behind the mis-dis-mal-information definitions.  Ultimately, if you stand back and look at what is being done, you see the concern of the U.S. government is not data collection, its information control.

The TikTok ban, authorized by a duplicious Legislative branch, is expanding the ability of the Executive branch to control information.  Just as The Patriot Act was not about targeting terrorism, but really about domestic surveillance; so too is the TikTok ban not about foreign data collection, it’s about information control.

Again, read the law as written and you can clearly see this is a law created to authorize the agencies of the government to control information.  Silence is the same as consent in the face of oppression.  Do not be silent.

Defunded Police Agencies Vacant


Posted originally on Mar 12, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Defund Police

Blue cities protested and set their own towns ablaze, demanding that their officials defund the police. They are now receiving what they thought they wanted. Pittsburgh’s police precents will no longer operate between 3 AM to 7 AM ET.

While this sounds like the beginning plot of the movie, “The Purge,” as this is a public message to all criminals that there will be minimal to no police presence overnight, panicked calls to 911 will connect to a representative outside of the station or no one at all. Pittsburgh will implement a Violent Crime Division and enhanced Telephone Reporting Unit to add some resemblance of law and order when the police are not active. “These changes make a difference,” said Mayor Ed Gainey, who connected the policy moves to the calls for police reform that helped bring him the mayor’s office. “Let me make it clear: I support this chief. Period.”

The riots that occurred after the death of George Floyd were fabricated by special interests on the far left. They funded the riots, asked politicians to tell the people to take to the streets, and presented 24/7 news coverage to enrage the masses. All of this has been a deliberate attempt to destabilize the nation to the point where they will be forced to implement a form of martial law.

Soros Austin Defund Police

The mayor may not understand what he is recommending. This action is a direct result of an underfunded police department. “One hundred percent, this is about staffing,” said Robert Swartzwelder, president of Fraternal Order of Police Lodge No. 1. “You have a recruitment, retention and rhetoric problem.” The city’s police force has declined by nearly 40% in recent decades. Not only do they not have the funding to pay officers, but blue policies have limited what an officer can do to maintain law and order.

The officers are desperately needed as crime is on the rise. The city has been working to downsize its police force amid rising crime to appease the calls to defund the police. The city has even toyed with the idea of hiring young community service aides to walk around and gently ask criminals not to commit crimes. Blue policies aim to protect the criminals over the people.

No one will be there to protect you or your family once police departments follow this path. Based on city budgets and cries to disarm and defund the police, expect to see this rising trend of unmanned police agencies and increasing lawlessness.

Answering Questions


Posted originally on Mar 11, 2024 By Martin Armstrong 

Question

QUESTION #1: What is your opinion of Trump’s statement regarding the COVID vaccine: “YOU’RE WELCOME, JOE, NINE MONTH APPROVAL TIME VS. 12 YEARS THAT IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN YOU!””

JN

ANSWER #1: I have a serious disagreement with Trump, and it bothers me that he has not expressed what so many now realize was wrong.

QUESTION #2: Do you think Trump was correct with North Korea and NATO?

PH

ANSWER #2: On those issues, yes, I would have to agree. If you refuse to negotiate with an opponent, you better be prepared for confrontation. The policy against North Korea was to use sanctions to PREVENT them from getting nuclear weapons. That policy was a huge mistake, for it only confirmed that they needed nuclear weapons. The US does not invade China or Russia because they have weapons, as does Iran. From that perspective, the only way to prevent a US invasion is to have nukes. This is the problem that has emerged with our Neocons, who are always engaged in regime change around the world. Now, North Korea has the nukes, so what good are the sanctions? They failed. The policy has to shift to preventing North Korea from using them.

Clintons Russia Coup

As far as NATO is concerned, it has steadily moved eastward when it said it would not. Putin told the truth in the Tucker Interview despite mainstream media saying he lied and is a paraia thereby guaranteeing the only option is war. Obviously, you cannot negotiate with such an evil man, so we must move to nuclear war to eliminate one man. But the Declassified documents from the Clinton Administration I got and published in the book Plot to Seize Russia confirm that there was indeed talk of Russia joining NATO.

NATO North Atlantic Terror Organization

It does not matter WHAT government agency you hand power to; they will NEVER surrender it willingly. Every other nation has ONE REGULATORY body, and the USA has the CFTC and the SEC, plus the Federal Reserve over banks. If you obey the laws of one, you go to jail with the other. This hurts American citizens, for they cannot avail themselves of a hedge fund, and they must decide what sector to invest in, which is why I provide Socrates covering everything.

The bond guys will say they are the best, and so will the commodity guy, the stock guy, and the gold seller. They will all swear they are the best. A hedge fund was forced offshore, and the hedge fund manager made those decisions. This does not allow the average American to get the best available funds management.

DeutscheBank 1

I ran the ONLY onshore hedge fund in the world for Deutsche Bank, which was set up in Australia. It was a pain, you know where. They wanted CVs of every broker on the floor where I would ever do a trade. But we put up with it because we were trying to make headway into bringing professional management to the average person.  The average annual return was 38%, and the drawdown average was 1%. Nobody ever produced such an audited track record. SORRY. I retired from funds management. I’ve been there and done that.

NATO presents a threat to the entire world. If there is PEACE with Russia, then we do not need NATO, which was formed to defend against communism, which fell all by itself. So why do we need NATO? We do not. They will constantly swear Russia will invade Europe any day now, so they remain relevant and keep their funding.

YES – I would defund NATO and negotiate with Russia and China to lower tensions, for the common people around the world do not want war – only our insane leaders.

They Call it a “Bloodbath at the RNC” as Team Trump Begin Cutting 60 Staff Jobs and Canceling Vendor Contracts


Posted originally on the CTH on March 12, 2024 | Sundance 

Alright, alright, alright. All the right people are pearl clutching as the new MAGA RNC leadership starts eliminating positions, reprioritizing the Republican National Committee on the functions that matter, and canceling professionally republican vendor contracts.

Essentially, the business end of the professionally republican RNC is being taken apart and retooled as a more election centric operation.

WASHINGTON – Donald Trump’s newly installed leadership team at the Republican National Committee on Monday began the process of pushing out dozens of officials, according to two people close to the Trump campaign and the RNC.

All told, the expectation is that more than 60 RNC staffers who work across the political, communications and data departments will be let go. Those being asked to resign include five members of the senior staff, though the names were not made public. Additionally, some vendor contracts are expected to be cut.

In a letter to some political and data staff, Sean Cairncross, the RNC’s new chief operating officer, said that the new committee leadership was “in the process of evaluating the organization and staff to ensure the building is aligned” with its vision. “During this process, certain staff are being asked to resign and reapply for a position on the team.”

The overhaul is aimed at cutting, what one of the people described as, “bureaucracy” at the RNC. But the move also underscores the swiftness with which Trump’s operation is moving to take over the Republican Party’s operations after the former president all but clinched the party’s presidential nomination last week.

Trump’s campaign took over operational control of the RNC on Monday. On Friday, former North Carolina GOP Chair Michael Whatley was elected the RNC’s new chair, and Trump daughter-in-law Lara Trump was elected as co-chair. Both had Trump’s endorsement. Additionally, Trump senior campaign adviser Chris LaCivita was named as the RNC’s new chief of staff. (read more) 

Oh dear, vendor contracts are being cut.
