🚨 WHEN FORMER SPY CHIEFS MI6 START WARNING THE COUNTRY, PEOPLE LISTEN Sir Richard Dearlove did not mince his words. Britain, he says, is being governed by a "bunch of students" who fail to grasp the dangers facing the world. His concern is not party politics. It is national security. And when a former head of MI6 openly questions whether the government understands the scale of the threats ahead, that should concern everyone. Because intelligence chiefs rarely speak this bluntly unless they believe something has gone badly wrong. @TVKev

I spent 10 years in progressive higher education. The faculty (and most of the students) LOVED to drone on about how uncouth and vulgar Americans were, specifically heartland conservatives. They did it constantly. Most of them had been to Europe at least once, students for study abroad, faculty for research trips. One professor told me that Ireland was “my favorite country in the whole world.” They loved to talk about how cultured Europeans were, how stupid and out-of-touch flyover Americans were, and made every endeavor to set themselves apart. Well, now the Europeans are here. In the heartland. With the closed-minded-bigoted-Baptists. And they love it. It’s real, it’s beautiful, it’s America. 🇺🇸
The vibes are insane. Driving through the great state of Louisiana on our way to New Orleans. It’s crazy how diverse this country is, every day the scenery looks different.

Apparently, Israel doesn't like it?
What Trump calls the worst deal ever negotiated, and has identified for more than a decade as Exhibit A in the case against American loserdom, has now become the pattern of his own Iran policy — Obama's policy. I explain today in @tabletmag tabletmag.com/sections/news/…

WOW 🚨 United States Pardon Attorney confirms the ONLY pardon that was physically signed, not by autopen, was Hunter Biden’s pardon He says Anthony Fauci was very worried about getting a pardon and reached out to make sure he got one, he immediately officially accepted it to make it legal once he got it “The only signature on pardons that you see with a wet pen is Hunter Biden, which was signed at Thanksgiving. All the rest are auto pen, which begs another question But most importantly, you can see these are email exchanges where Fauci, Dr. Fauci's lawyer, is saying, will there be pardons for Fauci? And then in the morning of January 20th, and just in time for the change of the presidency, Fauci got his pardon. And you have to accept under American law, the one thing the Supreme Court has said is you have to accept the pardon. So Fauci immediately had his lawyer say, I accept the pardon, and sent that in. So they were very aware that they needed that and they wanted it.” Crimes Against Humanity can’t be pardoned Also according to everything I could find, the presidential pardon system was never meant to be used the way Biden used it. Every pardon should be thrown out

You cannot disprove the truth. What you state is exactly why the SARS-CoV-2 response, how they reacted to it and all the control mitigation stuff, came from the Intelligence Community and Military.

I'm not sure if President @realDonaldTrump is fully aware of this or not, but I am generally confident DC insiders understand the potential. Consider the NSA database is essentially a library of information of activity. Within that data, there is a flow of information related to election activity. Behind that thought you now have an expanded perspective of why the ODNI would be involved in election type investigative activity. Essentially, the data library shows XXX and the factual paperwork supporting XXX exists in actual warehouses. The data is within a digital library. The factual paperwork is on the ground. Now, pause. The lockbox to open the digital record is accessed using the recently discussed 702 pathways. As presented for several years, the FISA (702) key is a tool, and the tool is needed to unlock the data. Without FISA (702) there is no collection, because there is no need for metadata collection. Understood? FISA (702) is not about foreign stuff as it relates to the common discussion; instead, it is the baseline of the entire data capture. Understanding this takes you to a mental reset. The capture is never discussed (see Snowden and Clapper), we only see debate on the access. So, if you take your thinking back to the data collection itself, then you ask what is in that massive digital vault we call the NSA library. There's a lot of stuff in there, including all of the electronic data that surrounds elections. All of that data can be filtered permitting a granular look at election outcomes and all the background electronic communication that comes attached to it. FISA (702) essentially represents the authority, the key that unlocks the ability to review the data. Think very carefully. If the database contains the digital records of elections, and if those digital records show manipulation of election data, then accessing that massive library would represent a risk. How many people in DC are in elected office as a result of election manipulation? Now, does the extreme concern from specific people in congress start to take on a new context?

Today, I’m releasing never before seen intelligence revealing new evidence of past US government funding for more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine. In support of President Trump‘s Executive Order to end federal funding of dangerous gain of function research around the world, and increase transparency and accountability, ODNI will continue working with partners across the Administration to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what “research” is being conducted. odni.gov/index.php/newsroom/…

Holy CRAP. Trump ORDERS the United States Postal Service to NOT deliver ballots to any state that is hiding it's voter rolls. The USPS is a federal agency under Trump’s control. Very smart!

🚨 MASSIVE DEVELOPMENT: Pursuant to President Trump's election integrity executive order, the US Postal Service could REFUSE to deliver mail-in ballots for states who block handing over the voter rolls The rolls are needed to ensure only valid citizens vote YES, STOP THE MAIL-IN CHEATING! NO VOTER ROLLS = NO MAIL 🔥 CNN panics: "State election officials could soon face a stark choice: Hand over voter lists to the Trump administration or risk losing Postal Service delivery for mail-in ballots." 👏🏻 The order: - Requires DHS to create a list of US CITIZENS with the help of the Social Security Administration - Require that the Postal Service only sends mail-in ballots to approved voters - Require unique bar code tracking in secure envelopes
