@ConceptualJames Those who do not believe in individual liberty will always find an excuse to excuse the removal of it. His parents are professors at Stanford?

No.

@dynamex @UnmaskTheSys I strongly suspect you're correct, tragically.

No—this is recycled, unsubstantiated rage-bait with no credible evidence.This exact narrative (John Thune under federal criminal investigation for taking millions in bribes from the Chinese Communist Party via Elaine Chao’s family shipping business) has been circulating in pro-Trump/MAGA Facebook groups, X, and Instagram for days/weeks. It follows the same template as the earlier Josh Hall-style posts: dramatic “breaking” claims of treason, pay-for-play, “enemy within,” etc.

This is the kind of bombshell that finally explains why John Thune has been acting like Mitch McConnell’s obedient little puppet in the Senate, blocking real America First legislation at every turn. Reports are breaking that the RINO Majority Leader is now under federal criminal investigation for allegedly taking millions in bribes from high-level Chinese Communist Party officials, pushing their pro-China agenda in exchange for cash funneled through Elaine Chao’s family shipping business. It’s the same old pay-for-play corruption these establishment snakes have been running for years — selling out our country to our number one enemy while pretending to be “conservatives.” After watching Thune and his McConnell crew protect the swamp and stab President Trump in the back nonstop, this feels like the beginning of the reckoning we’ve all been waiting for. Patriots, if “Mini Mitch” is guilty of being a CCP asset, he needs to be charged, removed, and made an example of — do you think this is just the start of cleaning out the traitors in our own party? Drop your thoughts below and share this before they try to memory-hole it. Follow @UnmaskTheSys for more drops.

@UTReaganCaucus @allianceforedu @mthrockmor Great record and leadership!!

A well-earned award!

@BngoBngoBngo @TheDefiantGhost @BrianFitzUSA No. Many/most of the members of Congress hold their seats due to rigged elections. Jim Thune, case in point.

@TheDefiantGhost @BrianFitzUSA if this is true, Congress is asleep at the wheel

This is how the entire global election-rigging machine was born. According to Ralph Pezzullo (the former insider tied to top Venezuelan intelligence sources) on the Danny Jones Podcast: Back in 2004, Hugo Chávez was getting crushed in a recall referendum. Polls had him finished. His intelligence service walks in: “Hey dude, you’re going to lose.” Fidel Castro, who treated Chávez like a son and sent a plane with instructions to Caracas every single day, wasn’t about to lose his oil piggy bank. Cuba’s economy depended on it. So they dropped the cheat code: “There’s new technology… voting machine software. Install it and we can switch votes. We guarantee you win.” Chávez: “I’m all in.” They pulled three elite engineers from Simón Bolívar University (Venezuela’s MIT). These guys already had a tech company in Boca Raton doing touchscreen banking. Venezuela didn’t even have real voting machines yet… so they installed the rigged software on Olivetti touchscreen lottery machines you’d find in any corner bodega. And it worked. Chávez “won” the referendum he was supposed to lose in a landslide. Fidel was thrilled. Chávez was thrilled. They paid the engineers an extra $200,000 and told them: “Perfect this system. Get real voting machines. We’ll use it in Venezuela forever… and let’s export it to other countries.” And that’s exactly what happened. Suddenly, in the early 2000s, “surprise” leftist victories started popping up across Latin America, Ortega in Nicaragua, Correa in Ecuador, the Kirchners in Argentina. Fidel Castro, who spent decades failing with jungle guerrillas, finally found his perfect weapon. A touchscreen lottery machine and some Venezuelan code. This wasn’t a glitch. This was the origin story. Watch Ralph Pezzullo break it all down. The receipts are wild.

@ittybitty_tsc So repetitive. She says thr sake thing five or six times. People should research "Operation Trust" from the Bolsheviks circa 1922.

@JohnHowardRoar1 @DrJStrategy Yeah, because in war there is never a case of misdirection. Why would you expect to be told secret strategies, as opposed to public salespitch?

Good Lord, what a moronic series of post hoc rationalizations. “Nobody serious expected regime change by airstrike.” We were told a rapid series of airstrikes would result in regime change in Iran. Was Trump just lying to us? Nobody serious thought the initial stated aim, used to garner support from the American people for aggressive action, was true? This suggests it’s morally acceptable to lie the country into a wider war of aggression. What a stupid admission to make, and a dangerous precedent to set. Now we’re going to “break the infrastructure” that somehow threatens Americans (but without any explanation of how Iran was going to harm us) and “restore deterrence” by demonstrating that Iran should have just gone ahead and completed their nuclear program in secret. The “Iran we were otherwise on track to face” is still there. The country still has near-weapons-grade uranium, hardened sites, and ICBMs. That last item is actually MRBMs (medium range ballistic missiles), but the “intercontinental” part better fits the narrative of a grave danger to the US. Iran still has all these things, plus a powerful new incentive to finish the job. And now we’re being told killing the moderates in the Iranian government did not result in more power for the hard-liners because those moderates never had any real power. Then why did we kill them? If we can kill anyone in their power structure then why didn’t we start with the ones who matter? We’re told the closure of the Strait of Hormuz was intentional and to our benefit, a stance clearly contradicted by Trump’s repeated, and often childlike, insistence on Iran opening the Strait of Hormuz. The US actions “remind China and Europe that their growth models still depend on flows Washington can disrupt.” Trump’s demonstration that the US can choke international trade whenever it wishes will simply force other countries to seek alternatives: the US has destroyed the era of free trade it used to congratulate itself for creating and protecting. In the final rationalization the war is a huge positive, but not because it will free the Iranian people, remove the nuclear threat, or reopen the trade stopped by the war itself; no, this is part of a new Great Game where our betters lie to us about their true intentions while treating the world as a chessboard and the people living in it as pawns to be sacrificed for their greater goals. The reality is that the war is turning into an empire-altering failure, so the results we judge it by must not be things that can be measured, such as the number of dead civilians, but rather abstract maneuverings on an imaginary chessboard.

Food for thought. Welcome to the New Great Game: the closure of the Strait of Hormuz is not an outburst, it is a long‑planned move on a board Washington has been studying for decades. Donald Trump’s Iran gamble is being judged against the wrong baseline. Nobody serious expected regime change by airstrike; the bet of Operation Epic Fury was narrow but brutal, halt Iran’s march to a bomb, break the infrastructure that threatens Americans and allies, restore deterrence and, by closing Hormuz, demonstrate that even in a “multipolar” age the United States can still reach for the world’s most strategic chokepoint. The question is not whether Iran looks worse than in peacetime, but whether it is weaker than the Iran we were otherwise on track to face: near‑weapons‑grade enrichment, hardened sites, ICBMs a tested weapon within a year, and implicitly backed by China. Against that counterfactual, a regime that has lost senior commanders, core nuclear facilities and major war‑making capacity has not “emerged stronger”. Nor did this war suddenly hand power to the IRGC. The Guards have run Iran for years; the conflict stripped away the clerical façade and killed many of their most capable officers. They are not true religious believers but calculating military men, interested in power, money and survival more than theology. Such men can be negotiated with, if the terms strip away their most dangerous options. A discredited IRGC with degraded capabilities and no viable nuclear path is weaker than the old clerical‑IRGC hybrid with a bomb option. This looks less like a revolutionary vanguard and more like a brittle military dictatorship. Venezuela shows why this is not neo‑conservatism in disguise. There, Washington helped force Nicolás Maduro from power with sanctions, isolation and support for the opposition, but it did not send Marines into Caracas or attempt to remake the country in America’s image. The objective was pressure and transition, not permanent US stewardship. The same bounded playbook now applies to Iran: maximum economic and military pressure to fracture the regime from within, not an occupation or bayonet‑installed government. Seen from that perspective, Hormuz is not a shocking improvisation but the central artery in a strategy that has been war gamed out : use control of sea‑lanes and finance to punish Iran first, but also to remind China and Europe that their growth models still depend on flows Washington can disrupt. What cannot be allowed is for this world to turn Iran into a Chinese staging point on the Gulf. The endgame in this first round of the New Great Game is narrow and knowable: no enrichment, real caps on missile reconstitution, no Chinese forward base, no open chequebook for terror, and enough sustained pressure that when the Iranian people finally move, they are pushing against a weakened security state rather than a confident nuclear one. The world has changed; Iran has lost the war, Pax Americana is dead. Trump’s national security doctrine, coercion without occupation, leverage without crusades, is the planned successor, and the Strait of Hormuz is its chosen proving ground. Is the Strait of Malacca next? Why should investors care? Because if this strategy succeeds, it removes a looming nuclear breakout risk, curtails state‑sponsored terrorism, re‑establishes a credible fear of US hard power and, for a time, compresses the geopolitical risk premium that has hung over energy, shipping and global equities for a generation. It offers the possibility, however briefly, of a peace dividend: lower volatility, higher investment and a world that, for a moment, rhymes with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of the Cold War. In that window, capital will scramble to reprice assets that assumed perpetual Middle Eastern and Nuclear escalation. The New Great Game is not just about guns and chokepoints; it is about who captures that re‑rating.

@orgnl_vntnr The Left. Everywhere. Always.

Yes

@AmericaFirstCon The NYTimes is a credible source for Leftist propaganda. Everyone knows that.

The New York Times is reporting that Rubio and Ratcliffe told Trump the idea of regime change was unachievable while General Caine concurred. Vance told Trump that starting an unnecessary, unprovoked and existential regional war with Iran was "a bad idea" but Trump started it anyway. The next day, U.S. intelligence pushed back sharply. CIA Director John Ratcliffe called the regime-change scenario “farcical,” with Secretary of State Marco Rubio adding: “In other words, it’s bullshit.” Gen. Dan Caine told the president: “This is, in my experience, standard operating procedure for the Israelis. They oversell, and their plans are not always well-developed.” Trump dismissed regime change as “their problem” — but remained focused on targeting Iran’s leadership and military. By Feb. 26, in a final Situation Room meeting, opposition inside the room was clear but fractured. Vice President JD Vance warned the war could spiral and drain U.S. resources, but ultimately said: “You know I think this is a bad idea… but I’ll support you.”

@NEWSMAX The military has an orthodoxy. Obama fired and/or forced retired literally hundreds of 0-6 and above officers. And since these officers decide who gets promoted to join the ranks of 0-6 and above, Obama literally rewrote our military leadership in his image. Miley is the example

Ousted Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George, in an outgoing email after Secretary of War Pete Hegseth asked him to step down and retire, told senior Army leaders that troops deserve "courageous leaders of character." bit.ly/4t4TCss

@jackcitymafia @kirawontmiss Churchill said something about a lie being half way round the world before the truth could get its pants on. Your numbers are true.

@kirawontmiss You know America spends most of its annual budget every year on entitlement programs, right? Defense spending as a percentage of the GDP has steadily declined for years. The joke didn't write itself. You just don't know what you're talking about

The jokes write themselves. Literally.

@TheSCIF Soooo... Thune won via vote fraud? This all might make sense now

Rick Weible blows the doors off of our supposed "secure elections" and shows officials in Brookings County, South Dakota, just how naive they really are to how compromised our electronic election systems really are.

Quite the discussion coming up...

@KemiBadenoch PS Apparently, "refugees" are specifically targeting White girls. They have made it a race, rape war. Revolting!!

A view from America: A "refugee" of color rapes a teenage White girl in the UK. He is arrested, which itself is absolutely shocking. He goes before one of your magistrates who releases him with a £500 "penalty." Translation: Its officially legal to rape white teenage girls in the UK. Cost is about $650 US Dollars. The UK has thrown thousands of people in prison for free speech. This year I'm beginning a petition to condemn the UK as a near-Communist state and demand complete economic divestment. You are no longer to be trusted. Tragically. You are a vile nation who have captured your very own people.

Yesterday some in the Labour Party were saying I should have supported Keir Starmer. These two headlines show exactly why I didn’t. Starmer’s inaction is making Britain look weak and angering our closest allies. Even worse, it seems he’s doing it because of his party’s interest, not the national interest. As I told Labour MPs yesterday, we are in this war whether they like it or not. We should be taking the necessary steps to stop further attacks on British bases and service personnel. Defensive action is simply not enough.

@elonmusk Her last won in Alaska was questionable. Now, we should chalk it up to vote fraud.

Without election integrity, we do not live in a democracy

@edwest @vdare Great to know!

We need to start looking at jury selection. The current system is clearly not working

@PGHGOPcommittee @MargoinWNC More money laundering in a blue state? Its inconceivable that this money has been lost or left in state possession. This is absolute fraud! Most states its in the millions. Money. Laundering!!!!

PA Treasurer Stacy Garrity has accelerated the return of unclaimed property, surpassing $1 billion in total returns since taking office in 2021. In fiscal year 22-23, a record $273.7 million was returned, with over $272 million in 24. The "PA Money Match” program alone returned nearly $50 million.

@COSProject I've got a political realistic streak to me, which ultimately means individuals have to play the cards dealt,... if the Article 5 goes forward, and it requires state legislative approval, by 2/3 of states. What safeguards against a convention going off the rails?

BREAKING: Kansas has just been added to the number of states (20) that have passed the Convention of States resolution. The Convention of States Resolution has 3 subject matters: - Impose fiscal restraints on the federal government - Limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, and - Limit the terms of office for its officials and Congress. Currently, 20 out of the constitutionally mandated 34 states have successfully passed the Convention of States Resolution. Career politicians created a $38 trillion debt and an unaccountable bureaucracy. Congress will never impose term limits on itself. With the Convention of States Resolution, We the People can. The Convention of States Resolution restores balance with term limits, fiscal restraints, and limits on federal power.
