🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Speaker Johnson is FURIOUS right now, literally red in the face because he's so upset Democrats are destroying the lives of TSA agents He just slammed the podium and STORMED OFF! "We cannot BELIEVE it's come to that, but it has!" "More people HARMED by criminal, illegal aliens than are being PROTECTED by the Democrat Party. AND WE'RE SICK OF IT!" "Only one party on the Hill is willing to FUND all of the security and safety of the American people." "It's VERY sad that Democrats are not interested in doing that!" "IT IS SHAMEFUL." "There is no way for them to defend this to the American people. And breaking it out is, I think it puts an exclamation point on what they've tried to do here. It's shameful!" "SO many people have been through SO many hardships because of this NONSENSE. And what we're concerned about is people may actually be HURT!" @SpeakerJohnson

Fani Willis’s people, who are equally disqualified from the criminal case she brought against Trump, me, Meadows, Giuiliani, etc., have just filed their 25– page appeal designed to slow down a fee award to the wronged defendants here. And it was filed by McDonald Wakeford, who was intimately involved with advancing the cooked-up state RICO theory Fani used. Wakeford also probably went to DC to meet with Biden officials about the coordinated lawfare they ran against us. But Nathan Wade couldn’t remember if Wakeford went with him or not in one of the clips I saw. (Yeah, OK.) The injustice continues. The way they are litigating, you’d think a fee award was coming out of the personal cash Fani stashes at her home and refuses to keep in banks. But no, the fees would come out of Fulton County’s coffers. And that County has serious mismanagement problems that fee awards would incentivize them to fix. Maybe when Fani proposes her next cooked-up, Rube Goldberg lawfare case attacking Republicans, they’ll starve it of funding as an expression of faithfulness to the wise use of Atlanta’s taxpayers.

We’re going to be hearing a lot about the fake Ukraine “whistleblower” Eric Ciaramella in the coming days when the IG Atkinson transcript is released. So with that in mind, this is a good time to remember that @FOOL_NELSON was the one who figured out who this guy really was, along with many other things he figured out (all documented for posterity in my book).

🚨 JUST IN: Sen. Mike Lee exposes Senate Democrats after ALL 47 OF THEM voted AGAINST basic, simple photo voter ID "This was a SCALED DOWN version of the SAVE America Act, one that requires only a photo ID at the time and place of voting, and omits the proof of citizenship requirements." "Even THAT was something that every single Democrat in the Senate voted against!" "Now, think about it this way. Two years ago, every Senate Democrat supported a bill that contained a voter ID requirement. What changed? Why are they doing this?!" Fraud.

About two weeks ago, Mojtaba Khamenei, Iran’s new supreme leader opened a premium account on X. Through this account, he is encouraging the continuation of the war and revenge against the United States. In other words, he is inciting violence. It goes without saying that Mojtaba himself, as well as the IRGC, are under sanctions. A premium account costs about eight dollars. I recommend that X disclose from which bank account the Supreme Leader bypassed U.S. sanctions and managed to transact in dollars. X may be inadvertently facilitating payments in violation of sanctions. At the same time, I would recommend that X review all accounts associated with Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, and the IRGC that it maintains, to ensure they are not being used to circumvent sanctions.

🧵🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: THE 4-DAY MIRACLE, or How MWEG and a 500-Org Coalition Weaponized Charlie Kirk's Assassination 🚨 1,400 people. 20+ organizations. 3 professionally moderated panels. 4 days after an assassination. Does this sound organic to you? September 14, 2025 (a Sunday, no less) the "Dignity Over Violence" zoom goes live. The coalition's central resource was a website called turntoward[.]us registered by Mormon Women for Ethical Government (MWEG) ONE DAY after Charlie Kirk was shot dead at UVU. Registrant email: internal.support@mweg.org "Turn Toward." Now say "Turning Point." Did they name the campaign after the dead man's organization to advance their own political agenda? I'm going to reverse-engineer how you mobilize 20 NGOs in 4 days... because you CAN'T. Not unless the infrastructure was already built. I dare you, @mormonweg , to explain how these receipts are "absolutely false." As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump absolutely NAILS IT. "I don't care about the Democrats. The Democrats hate our country. The Democrats are in chaos right now, and they have no common sense." "You know, they have one quality that's amazing. They stick together, and it's harder because they stick together in a ridiculous policy like men playing and women's sports, open borders for everybody, including murderers and anybody else that want it. We're open to you." "Come in m*rderers. You know why they do that?" "We're a party of common sense. The Democrats are a party of insanity. They're a party that will destroy our country. If I didn't win this election, I believe our country would have been destroyed!" 💯

Democrats misused government for venal reasons… and still do.
General Mike Flynn@GenFlynn

BREAKING: Flynn Family statement about today’s DOJ settlement regarding my case. ______________ Today, after ten years of fighting, I have reached a settlement agreement with the United States Government in my case regarding the Russian Hoax FBI lawfare against me. Nothing can fully compensate for the hell that my family and I have endured over these many years—the relentless attacks, the destruction of reputations, the financial ruin, and the profound personal toll inflicted upon us all. No amount of money or formal resolution can erase the pain caused by a prosecution that should never have been brought. This ordeal stemmed from partisan government officials in a coordinated effort to pursue an innocent man as part of a broader campaign to undermine @realDonaldTrump and his administration. It was a relentless, partisan pursuit that weaponized federal law enforcement in an audacious and unjust manner. Yet this settlement goes far in demonstrating that the current Department of Justice, under the leadership of President Trump, Attorney General Bondi, Deputy Attorney General Blanche, and other dedicated departmental leaders, is committed to bringing accountability for the bad acts of those partisan actors. It marks a meaningful step toward righting a profound wrong. There should never again be such a brazen attempt to weaponize federal law enforcement against political opponents or innocent citizens. It is essential that we remain guardians of the rule of law. A huge part of that guardianship is accountability, holding those who abuse power to answer for their actions. It is not this Department of Justice that created this crisis of politicized justice, but they are doing right by truly pursuing justice now—ensuring that the facts prevail and that such abuses are not repeated. This resolution, while imperfect, brings to an end this chapter of injustice. This small measure of accountability should help the nation heal regarding the abuses of the past. It allows my family and me to move forward. My family and I remain grateful for the support of so many who stood by us. It was their support and our faith in God Almighty that sustained us and gave us the strength to endure. I will continue to advocate for the restoration of integrity in all our institutions. @jbinnall @SidneyPowell1

Jack Smith is a proven liar, consistent with these fake accusations from his failed vendetta against the President. There is absolutely zero proof of wrongdoing, which is precisely why they didn’t include it in their indictment that was tossed out by the court. Why was it never charged? Because it simply isn’t true, and even they knew that. The media should stop slopping up the trash dropped by the Democrats on their path to misleading the American public.
Curtis Houck@CurtisHouck

.@RealAmVoice’s @BrianGlennTV: “Does the White House have a comment on a letter that was sent from Congressman Raskin to the DOJ alleging that the DOJ recklessly released damning information in regards to President Trump’s documents?” @PressSec @KarolineLeavitt: “Yes, I saw that letter from Congressman Raskin this morning, who I would add, has zero credibility, and this letter was clearly a cheap political stunt. What the congressman did here, Brian, and for everyone in the room who’s hopefully not reporting on this as fact, is that he took untrue and salacious claims in a memo that was produced by Jack Smith, who has been completely discredited for his lawfare and his witch hunts against this President, and that information was unverified. It never even made it into the indictment because it was so unverified. And what happened to that indictment, anyway? It was thrown out. And Jack Smith has been proven again to be a prosecutor on a witch hunt against President Trump. He tried to throw him in jail ahead of the 2024 election. The Biden Department of Justice was fully on board with this lawfare campaign. And in fact, this story that was concocted by Congressman Raskin was so ridiculous I understand his communications team reached out to some outlets in this room who responsibly said, we’re not going to write this because this is just too much. However, of course, MS NOW did write that story this morning because they continue to be left wing propaganda for the Democrat Party. But I think Jack Smith has been proven to be a liar and a fraud. And this is, again, a cheap political stunt from a Democrat on Capitol Hill who I think wants to get himself on cable television.”

Iran did not spend all of its money on bombs and terrorists. They also, for years, have indirectly funded a lot of of the Middle Eastern and international analysis firms, whose pundits provide the press with insight. If you want to understand why so many voices in the Press seem convinced Iran is doing well, that is why.

Cynical Publius@CynicalPublius·
America was nearly lost to a cabal of NGOs, think tanks, foundations, specialty media organizations, compromised mainstream media organizations, quasi-governmental organizations and all other manner of other well-funded (often with taxpayer dollars) players dedicated to preserving extra-governmental controls over the average American, all outside the scope of what Americans vote for. The men and women behind these organizations claim to want to benevolently advance public policy, when in reality their singular purpose is to maintain and grow the nefarious personal power they have achieved. Above all else they must defend their fiefdoms, the good of the nation be damned. When reformers try to undo any part of this cabal, those reformers are inevitably smeared, libeled, slandered and threatened. The goal is to prevent them from engaging in that necessary reform by intimidating them into silence. Food for thought.

No, these are European Parliament votes—significant but not final. - Mass deportation rules: Parliament's position advances stricter returns, but requires Council agreement to become EU law. - Chat surveillance (Chat Control extension): Rejection today halts the proposal for now, creating a potential legal gap from April, though the Commission could try again. - US tariffs drop: Parliament's consent on the trade deal today paves the way, but full implementation needs Council conclusion and possible further ratification steps (targeted for April/May). Centrists shifting right makes these notable, but EU processes involve multiple bodies.

This might be one of the worst days in history for the EU Bureaucrats: - Mass deportation proposal passed - Chat surveillance proposal rejected - All tariffs on US goods dropped The centrists have begun voting en masse with the nationalists… This has never been seen before.

Brian Cates - Political Columnist & Pundit
It's a matter of public record his legal team at Covington and Burling fucked him and did a secret side deal with the prosecution team that they hid from the court until it was exposed. Involving finagling a guilty plea from their client in exchange for the prosecution not going after Flynn's son, @realmflynnJR, to send him to prison also. Every single Covington & Burling attorney involved in that case should be disbarred just for THAT alone. When Flynn found out what his own lawyers had done to him, he promptly fired them and brought in @SidneyPowell1, who withdrew the guilty pleas and forced the government to proceed with a case that the DOJ was later PUBLICLY FORCED TO ADMIT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN BROUGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE. This also seems to have slipped your mind. And despite the fact the DOJ itself was moving to dismiss it's own case against Flynn, we got a 9 month circus in the court of Judge Emmit Sullivan, where he attempted to keep the case going himself by refusing to dismiss it. You're a bad person, Peter Baker. And you should feel really bad about yourself.

Trump's Justice Department has agreed to pay Michael Flynn $1.25 million in taxpayer money even though he pleaded guilty twice to making false statements to FBI agents about his interactions with Russian officials. @alanfeuer nytimes.com/2026/03/25/us/…
