Delivering a short ruling [pdf here], the Supreme Court has refused to intercede in the sentencing of President Trump in the Manhattan ‘hush money’ case. The court apparently is providing Judge Merchan the opportunity to correct his prior rulings which are likely to be overturned on appeal. The sentencing hearing is scheduled for Friday, January 10.e
Two of the high court’s Republican appointees, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett, joined the court’s three Democratic appointees to turn down Trump’s last-ditch attempt to avert the sentencing.
WASHINGTON DC – […] Trump has vowed to appeal to overturn his conviction, claiming that evidence and testimony was admitted that implicated his duties as president during his first term. Last summer, the high court ruled presidents were immune from criminal prosecution for some official acts. The high court’s brief order did not get into those issues in detail, but said Trump’s complaints of errors at his trial “can be addressed in the ordinary course on appeal.”

This is not the first time the 11th CCA has ruled in favor of Jack Smith. This is the same federal circuit court who said they defer any/all definitions of classified documents and national security matters to the executive branch, in a prior ruling that supported the lawfare operation.
Today the 11th CCA has ruled that part-1 of Jack Smith’s political report outlining the purposes and intents of his 3-year-long prosecution of Donald Trump for refusing to accept the fraudulent 2020 election. The second part of the report on the Mar-a-Lago documents case will not be released due to ongoing litigation against other defendants.
WASHINGTON – […] The Atlanta-based 11th Circuit Court of Appeals’ ruling Thursday night left in place an order from U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon — the judge in one of those cases — that in its current form bars Attorney General Merrick Garland from releasing the report through at least Sunday.
The Justice Department could challenge Cannon’s order, triggering another round of emergency court proceedings. At the same time, Trump’s allies could challenge the appeals court ruling, perhaps by seeking relief from the Supreme Court. The high court on Thursday turned down Trump’s attempt to stave off sentencing for his criminal conviction in his New York hush money case.
In short, the fate of Smith’s report — and whether some of it will be released publicly in the coming days — remains a muddle. A Justice Department spokesperson declined to comment on the latest development.
DOJ had asked that the appeals court resolve the matter by Friday, though it appears it will take at least another few days, with just 11 days left until Trump is inaugurated and takes control of the department. (read more)

We knew something was coming when we saw the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) was essentially blaming Tulsi Gabbard for not submitting her question survey to the SSCI for the slow schedule for her confirmation, while at the same time the SSCI had never sent Gabbard the questionnaire for her to complete.
Now the SSCI slow-walking starts to make sense.
Politico is out with an article, a direct attack against Tulsi Gabbard using a very specific narrative engineer, Mouaz Moustafa. [SEE HERE] We know the backstory of Moustafa, so we know exactly what is happening.
Mouaz Moustafa is an operative on behalf of the Muslim Brotherhood (political Islam). Moustafa is in the sphere of influence where former Senator John McCain, Adam Kinzinger and CIA operative Evan McMullin worked. Moustafa supports the elements of radical Islam represented by various factions of extremism that fall under the umbrella of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Essentially in alignment with Turkish President Recep Erdogan and playing the role of a friendly voice for western interests, Mouaz Moustafa is the bridge between the West and radical, albeit political, Islam. Where the U.S. provides money and resources for groups of jihadists within al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, ISIS etc, is where you will find Moustafa under the auspices of the Syrian Emergency Task Force.
Mouaz Moustafa, far right of picture above (wearing keffiyeh)
Moustafa, Erdogan and the Muslim Brotherhood all hated Syrian leader Bashir Assad. Everything from within the Obama administration was framed to remove Assad (favorable to the Muslim Brotherhood), including the prior U.S. support for radical elements of Islam, as delivered by the CIA and USAID. Those Intel Community operatives are deeply embedded in the DC machine.
BOTTOM LINE – The Politico story tells us the U.S. Intelligence Community is strongly opposed to Tulsi Gabbard.

Let me explain something. MKUltra is currently used in prisons. This is the “hole” at MCC in New York City. When I heard Epstein was put in this place, I wrote it was only a question if he would commit suicide BEFORE or AFTER a plea. Oh yes. He hung himself, had no bunkie, was on suicide watch, guards fell asleep, and the camera didn’t work. A perfect storm. My own lawyers warned me to be careful; they would try to kill me. How is that for legal advice? I knew Epstein would be dead based on where they put him. I was in the cell across from where he supposedly committed suicide – yeah! ON CIVIL CONTEMPT, no less – not criminal. This is a jail – not a prison. No outdoor yard or Bocce courts.
A plea of guilty means NOTHING. You are given the choice of trial and 120 years since you will NEVER get a fair trial in NYC, or you plea and take 5 years. Claiming these January 6th prisoners plead guilty is only because they and their families are threatened. That is our legal SYSTEM. Will Trump investigate? I seriously doubt it. The Deep State controls the country, and nobody in DC will challenge them so much for We the People.
Judge Rakoff, when he retired, wrote a book on how the government ROUTINELY forces innocent people to plead guilty all the time. I have written that I do not believe in the death penalty as being the worst punishment. That is life imprisonment. Two death row inmates who Biden commuted their sentences just rejected it. I would do the same. Trump is DEAD WRONG on the death penalty. It is NEVER a deterrent. That is pure bullshit. Make it the choice of the inmate – life or death. Many would choose death over being tortured mentally for the rest of their lives. You want a deterrent, a prosecutor should suffer the punishment he imposes on an innocent person. Now, you will start to clean up the legal system.
More than 50% of the people in federal prison are innocent. The guilty go free because they know the game. You implicate and bring in as many people as you can and you go home. I met priests in prison who thought they were being kind and wire money to China. He thought to help a family, and the person was a drug dealer who asked him to please help his family. A superintendent of an apartment building was given 17 years because drug dealers said he would let them know if the police were entering the building. They tried to give the death penalty to a 26-year-old who, when asked where Joe was, replied he was over there, and they killed him. The prosecutors are the worst people you will ever meet. They wanted the death penalty on that kid just to win one in NYC for once – not the shooters.
To survive these MKUltra Tactics, you MUST turn it into a game like the TV series Survivor. They would throw me in a cell that was so hot that my underwear was too much to wear. They throw you into a cell that is so cold you see your breath and deny you any clothing but your underwear. Sleep deprivation is also a favorite. You have to turn it mentally into a survivor game. Ok, I beat that one – what’s next? They threw me in with the terrorists from the first World Trade Center attack. A Muslim cannot be seen naked. They would come and order you to take off all your clothes and claim the guy is behind them with fresh clothes that never came. No heat. I told the kid to put on the blanket. He said no, they told him it was made of pig hear. I told him they were liars. There is no such thing. It is wool. He finally believed me. All the time, my family tried to see me, but they told them I was not there.
This is why the US Conviction Rate approaches 99% in USA
Fair Trials Do NOT Exist
And there is ABSOLUTELY Nobody who will defend the people there.
Court Appointed Lawyers are there to get you to plead only!!!
Politicians turn a blind eye, and the ACLU will NEVER even respond
to a plea for help
Do not Donate to Them or Wikipedia – It’s All Bullshit

Psychological warfare is far more powerful than bullets. The government has been studying methods of brainwashing for decades. Perhaps the most infamous studies fall under the MKUltra program that the CIA conducted from 1953 to 1964 on unsuspecting victims who did not know they were participating in a brutal study. The MKUltra experiments have been shrouded in mystery after CIA director Richard Helms and longtime MKULTRA chief Sidney Gottlieb destroyed the majority of the evidence. However, newly declassified documents shed light on the extreme human rights abuses carried out by the US government.
MKULTRA began in 1953 amid the Cold War era. The US government allegedly wanted to learn mind control tactics that they believed the Soviet Union and Chinese governments had already mastered. Furthermore, the CIA was interested in the experiments carried out by Nazis on those held in concentration camps during World War II. Operation Paperclip was the prelude to MKUltra, beginning in 1945, when the CIA began investigating torture and brainwashing methods used by the Third Reich. In fact, 1,600 Nazi scientists were recruited by the US government and encouraged to continue their work on American citizens. Those scientists also looked into ways to carry out biowarfare by weaponizing the bubonic plague. There were other studies such as project Artichoke and Bluebird that took place before the CIA developed the infamous MKUltra experiment.
(Sidney Gottlieb)
Richard Helms, the Assistant Deputy Director for Plans at the CIA, proposed the MKUltra project as a “special funding mechanism for highly sensitive CIA research and development projects that studied the use of biological and chemical materials in altering human behavior.” How could the government manipulate the human brain? The government wanted to find a “truth serum” to use on POW and their own citizens. CIA chemist Sidney Gottlieb partnered with pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly to produce the psychedelic drug LSD to carry out these brutal experiments.
(Sidney Gottlieb)
Participants were taken from prisons, addiction facilities, juvenile detention centers, and even the US military. No one knew they were taking place in the study. The CIA provided researchers with an unlimited budget and often created fake foundations to provide TSS grants. Doctors from universities across the nation were recruited and they particularly enjoyed studying patients already in health or mental hospitals.
To manipulate human behavior, researchers fed their subjects LSD and other mind-altering drugs and attempted to reprogram their minds. They looked to pharmaceutical companies to develop additional drugs that could “promote illogical thinking, would help individuals to endure ‘privation, torture and coercion during interrogation” and attempts at “brain-washing.” The experiments often lasted for weeks on end. The National Security Archive (NSA) explains:
“’The CIA conducted terrifying experiments using drugs, hypnosis, isolation, sensory deprivation, and other extreme techniques on human subjects, often US citizens, who frequently had no idea what was being done to them or that they were part of a CIA test.
‘These records also shed light on an especially dark period in the history of the behavioral sciences in which some of the top physicians in the field conducted research and experiments usually associated with the Nazi doctors who were tried at Nuremberg.’”
Sleep depravation, electroshock treatments, radiation, and auditory harassment were among the countless tactics used during this program. There are countless tales from survivors of the horrors they experienced, but the true extent of this program is too extensive to explain here. The newly declassified documents are 1,200 pages in length and are only a fragment of the truth.
(Matthew Livelsberger's passport was found at the scene. Yet another terrorist who brought his indestructable passport along to commit a crime.)
Oddly, the first 1,000 victims were taken from US military bases. New Orleans terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar and Las Vegas bomber Matthew Livelsberger were both stationed at Fort Bragg’s military base in North Carolina. Coincidentally, they carried out their attacks back-to-back, although those who knew the men claim they had no indications that either could commit such crimes. Ryan Routh, the man who attempted to assassinate Trump on the golf course, also has ties to Fort Bragg and visited over 100 times. One could go down a deep rabbit hole looking into each individual scenario. You need not be a conspiracy theorist to admit something does not add up. Congresswoman Anna Luna Paulina is requesting information on Jabbar and Livelsberger regarding their connection to the Fort Bragg military base. Others who are not afraid to be labeled conspiracy theorists may soon begin asking questions, too.
Did anyone believe that the government simply gave up on developing methods of psychological and biological warfare? The government actively funds agencies that study biowarfare and successfully carried out perhaps the largest psyops in history with COVID and the accompanying restrictions. There are endless examples of the government carrying out experiments on large portions of the population. The terrifying part is that no one knows they are participating. This is worth taking a closer look.
In an egregious exhibition of judicial lawfare, Judge Juan Merchan has ordered President Donald Trump to appear (in person or virtually) before his court for sentencing on January 10, 2025.
Merchan is expected to deliver an unconditional discharge the “most viable solution to ensure finality and allow Defendant to pursue his appellate options.”
ABC […] Trump’s legal team is expected to try to stop the Jan. 10 sentencing, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News. His lawyers intend to ask an intermediate New York appellate court to intervene and stop the sentencing hearing from going forward, the sources said.
Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung, in a statement, called Merchan’s ruling “a direct violation of the Supreme Court’s Immunity decision and other longstanding jurisprudence.”“President Trump must be allowed to continue the Presidential Transition process and to execute the vital duties of the presidency, unobstructed by the remains of this or any remnants of the Witch Hunts. There should be no sentencing,” the statement said. (more)
Every Legal Scholar and Pundit, including the highly respected, and sadly recently passed, David Rivkin, as well as Jonathan Turley, Elie Honig, Andy McCarthy, Alan Dershowitz, Gregg Jarrett, Elizabeth Price Foley, Katie and Andy Cherkasky, Paul Ingrassia, and many others, have unequivocally stated that the Manhattan D.A.’s Witch Hunt is a nonexistent case, which is not only barred by the Statute of Limitations but, on the merits, should never have been brought.
This illegitimate political attack is nothing but a Rigged Charade. “Acting” Justice Merchan, who is a radical partisan, just issued another order that is knowingly unlawful, goes against our Constitution and, if allowed to stand, would be the end of the Presidency as we know it. Merchan has so little respect for the Constitution that he is keeping in place an illegal gag order on me, your President and President Elect, just so I cannot expose his and his family’s disqualifying and illegal conflicts. I am the only Political Opponent in American History not allowed to defend myself – A despicable First Amendment Violation! …
…Merchan took the Bragg Hoax that, according to all Legal Scholars, should have been dead on arrival and, through his fraud and misconduct, gave it a semblance of “life.” While Deranged Jack Smith was “sent packing” back to The Hague, after losing all of his politically manufactured cases against me, Merchan, who is far worse and even more corrupt than Smith in his fight for my hopeless Political Opponents, just cannot let go of this charade.
Is it because of his conflicts and relations that he keeps breaking the Law? This has to stop! It is time to end the Lawfare once and for all, so we can come together as one Nation and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! (LINK)
