The ICE raids/arrests wouldn't be necessary if Dems and the media had not: 🔹️Lied to us about a "secure border". 🔹️Created a sanctury system of protecting illegal aliens. 🔹️And let in 10+ Million illegal aliens over the last 4 years.

They are just moving Swalwell aside because he's a liability to the Cal Dem Party. He was fine as a dependable vote for Pelosi and she protected him from challengers in a safe district. Now he's venturing into territory where the skeleton's in his closet will become a liability to anyone who is closely associated with him. This is the end of his career in politics.

In Oregon, all water is publicly owned. Rain that falls on your property. Snow that melts on your land. Gary Harrington didn’t accept that. He built three reservoirs on his 170-acre property in Eagle Point — collecting rainwater and snowmelt for personal use and wildfire protection. The state told him to drain the reservoirs. He refused. 30 days in jail. Nine misdemeanor convictions. $1,500 fine. His argument: it’s rain that fell on my land. Oregon’s argument: all water belongs to us. Oregon won.

Say what you will about Democrats, but they certainly are well organized and unified in their messaging. Check out this thread! 😵‍💫

Crazy idea: Let's split a country in socialist and capitalist halves and check in on them in 75 years.

Republicans will pass Amnesty for illegals while still telling you the SAVE ACT is impossible

Colorado’s tourism slogan, “it’s our nature,” has a menacing meaning for free speech advocates. Colorado is now arguably the most anti-free speech state in the union, pushing an array of measures attacking those with opposing social and political views...jonathanturley.org/2026/04/07/its…

In just the past month, ERO Boston has arrested five criminal aliens with Interpol Red Notices or who are foreign fugitives wanted for murder/homicide in their home countries. Each illegally entered the United States during the Biden administration's disastrous open border policy

The highest quality video of the moon was just released… this is so beautiful.

@shanaka86 Toll booth? We don't need no stinking toll booth! Try to stop me!

The IRGC toll booth at the Strait of Hormuz does not accept dollars. It accepts Chinese yuan, settled through CIPS, China’s Cross-Border Interbank Payment System, or cryptocurrency. The toll is up to $2 million per voyage. The payment clears without touching SWIFT, without transiting a correspondent bank in New York, and without creating a record in the dollar clearing system that the United States built to monitor and weaponise global finance. The war that was launched to enforce the petrodollar is being fought across a chokepoint where the petrodollar has already been replaced. CIPS processed over $130 billion per day in March 2026, a surge driven by Iran war flows. The system connects 1,600 participants across 180 countries. It still relies on SWIFT for approximately 80 percent of its messaging, which means it is not independent. But the 20 percent that bypasses SWIFT entirely is the 20 percent that matters, because that is the channel through which Iranian oil payments, Hormuz transit tolls, and ghost fleet settlements flow from Chinese refiners to IRGC-linked intermediaries without the United States seeing the transaction. Alongside CIPS runs mBridge, the Bank for International Settlements’ multi-CBDC bridge platform. It operates on a custom distributed ledger, settles central bank digital currencies atomically in seconds, and has processed approximately $55 billion, 95 percent of it in digital yuan. The participants include the central banks of China, Hong Kong, Thailand, the UAE, and Saudi Arabia. The platform was designed for a post-dollar world. It is being tested in a world where the dollar is still dominant but the toll booth at the world’s most important chokepoint already operates in the currency the platform was built to clear. The architecture is layered. CIPS handles traditional yuan bank transfers: refiner to intermediary to IRGC-linked account, cleared in Shanghai. mBridge handles the digital leg: central bank digital currency moves directly between sovereign nodes without correspondent banks, without SWIFT, without delay. Together they form a parallel payment system that does not need the dollar. It needs only participants, and the war provided them: China buys 80 to 90 percent of Iranian exports, settles in yuan, and clears through infrastructure the United States cannot freeze, cannot monitor in real time, and cannot sanction without sanctioning the BIS itself. Deutsche Bank called the Iran war a “petroyuan catalyst.” Before the war, yuan oil was a pilot programme. The war turned it into operational necessity. When SWIFT is weaponised, you build around SWIFT. When the dollar is weaponised, you settle in yuan. When the strait is closed to dollar shipping, you open it to yuan shipping and charge a toll that funds the war the dollar was supposed to win. The dollar still denominates 58 to 59 percent of global reserves. It still invoices 80 to 85 percent of commodity trade. By every aggregate measure, it dominates. But the aggregate misses the edge. The edge is the Strait of Hormuz, where $130 billion in daily CIPS volume meets $2 million yuan tolls meets ghost fleet AIS spoofing meets mBridge atomic settlement. The edge is where the replacement is being built, not in a policy paper but in a payment, one barrel at a time, one toll at a time, one dark tanker at a time, cleared through infrastructure the United States did not build and cannot shut down. The architecture of bypass is operational. The war that was supposed to prevent it is funding it. And Power Plant Day is tonight. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

Gold holding firm even as oil ticks higher 👀 The usual inverse relationship is showing cracks, correlation still exists, but clearly weakening. Markets are starting to price something bigger beneath the surface. In the chart below, the blue line represents inverted oil.

JUST IN: Over a dozen former female employees and interns are preparing to come forward to accuse Eric Swalwell of inappropriate touching and sexual harassment.

U.S. MQ-9 Reaper drones protected the rescued F-15E crew member by striking Iranian military-aged males believed to be a threat who got within three kilometers of the Airman, a person familiar with the operation told Air & Space Forces Magazine.

It’s time to leave NATO. Put it to a vote. Let the senators vote publicly.

Breaking Joe Kent has started to delete posts weird….

This thing is so fkn ugly

This is,Mohammed he does not work, he has three wives, (one in Morocco), and six children. They depend on Britain's benefit system, FULLY funded taxpayers' money, it pays for everything he needs. How many other Mohammed are there in Europe and America who live on our taxes?

A middle-aged @usairforce colonel went through a shoot down and a parachute drop, was severely injured, treated his own wounds, ran five miles in enemy territory, climbed a 7,000-foot mountain, radioed the proclamation, "God is good," and then holed up in a crevice in near-freezing temperatures for two days while his brothers and sisters came to rescue him. That's America; that's the American military; that's the United States Air Force.

Remember when Senators Elissa Slotkin and Mark Kelly made that Seditious Six video? Was that the set up for this piece by MS Now and their resistance contacts in the military & IC? 🤔

This isn't Beirut or Tehran. This is Macron's France. Images of the destruction caused by riots from Kurdish immigrants in France are making headlines around the world. This is a reality that the mainstream media isn't reporting on. Why?
