Covering the news cycle between March 6 – 12, 2026

  1. TRUMP’S 2020 ELECTORS FULLY FREE FROM PROSECUTION AFTER MICHIGAN DA SURRENDERS – Michigan DA Dana Nessel has decided she will not pursue charges against 16 Trump electors from the 2020 election who attempted to claim they should be recognized as the real delegates because the election was stolen. The Trump electors were charged with election fraud, a charge that doesn’t stick, as a district court judge ruled, saying they were being charged for freedom of speech, not for committing fraud.

Now, after looking for ways to defy the district judge’s ruling, the DA has given up the fight. She claimed, “My office did not reach this decision lightly, though after a thorough assessment of the resources and time required to pursue justice in these cases, the pace and difficulty with which various courts have dealt with criminal violations of election law, and our likelihood of success given stringent appellate review standards, I have decided not to pursue an appeal.”

  1. OIL REFINERY AND NUCLEAR POWER PLANT APPROVED IN SAME WEEK – President Trump is overseeing the return of American energy sovereignty through the construction of new oil refineries and nuclear power plants. The Biden administration had begun the process of reactivating nuclear energy by completing the construction of a nuclear power plant in George in 2024. It was the first nuclear reactor to be built in America in over 30 years.

Now, President Trump has overseen the approval of an oil refinery in Brownsville, Texas, and the construction of a first-of-its-kind nuclear reactor in Wyoming. The oil refinery is the first approved building of a new refinery in America in over 50 years. This same week, the nuclear power plant received its approval to build the nuclear reactor. With the need for energy for AI machines, nuclear power is sure to move to the fore of future energy planning, especially micro-reactors for individual AI machines.

  1. NEPALESE ELECT FORMER RAPPER TO BE THEIR NEXT PM – The Gen Z revolution of Nepal has now culminated with a sweeping victory for a new party led by former rapper Balendra Shah. His party is set to replace the ruling party of the past few decades, the Communist Party of Nepal. Shah’s party has won super majorities in both the direct-vote seats of the parliament as well as the proportional representation seats. The Communist Party has fallen from majority party status to fringe 3rd party status in this one election.
  2. INDIANA LAW PREVENTS CHRISTIANS FROM BEING BANNED FROM ADOPTION AND FOSTER CARE – Republican Indiana Governor Mike Braun has officially signed into law a bill that will protect people of Faith from being excluded from adoption and foster care. The bill is primarily aimed at democrat-controlled local governments that are attempting to freeze Christians out of the adoption/foster care process because of their opposition to indulging children’s sexuality or gender fantasies.
  3. PROGMERICAN JUDGE GETS APPEALS COURT REBUKE AFTER ATTEMPT TO BECOME CHICAGO’S SELF-APPOINTED IMMIGRATION CZAR – An Obama-appointed Judge, Sara Ellis, got a verbal beatdown from the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals, accusing her of “effectively establish[ing]” herself “as the supervisor of all Executive Branch activity in the city of Chicago.” The court shut down her effective effort to control the Federal Immigration policies for the city of Chicago and its surrounding communities.

Parts of her initial order included a requirement the DHS give her a daily brief of all their activities in the city, to assure compliance, They also include preventing federal agents from “using hands-on physical force such as pulling or shoving to the ground, tackling, or body slamming’ anyone who is not causing an immediate threat of physical harm to other…” It also ordered that anyone calling themselves a journalist should be allowed to stay in an area, even if a dispersal order is lawfully given.

  1. TRUMP FORMS 17-NATION COALITION TO JOIN WAR AGAINST CARTELS – President Donald Trump announced the formation of a 17-nation pact committed to defeating the drug cartels in the Americas. The pact was announced at an event at Trump National Doral called “the Shield of the Americas summit.” These are the members of the coalition: Argentina, El Salvador, Colombia, Brazil, Peru, Chile, Panama, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Ecuador, Paraguay, Uruguay, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Bahamas, and Belize. Notably missing from this list is Mexico, which is close to civil war thanks to the activity of the cartels in that country.
  2. D.C. COURT STRIKES DOWN D.C. GUN LAW – The D.C. Federal Court of Appeals panel ruled 2-1 that Washington, D.C.’s ban on gun magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds was unconstitutional. Trump appointed Judge Joshua Deahl wrote in the judgment, “Magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition are ubiquitous in our country, numbering in the hundreds of millions, accounting for about half of the magazines in the hands of our citizenry, and they come standard with the most popular firearms sold in America today.”
  3. FULTON COUNTY JUDGE RULES FANI WILLIS “WHOLLY DISQUALIFIED,” WILL HAVE NO SAY IN TRUMP LAWSUIT – President Trump’s efforts, along with his co-defendants, to win a civil lawsuit against Fani Willis’ Prosecutor’s Office, won’t be affected by Fani Willis herself. Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee ruled Fani Willis was “wholly disqualified” from being involved in this case at all, and therefore, she will not be allowed to participate in any capacity in the proceedings of the civil trial.
  4. DEMS HATE ICE, THE COUNTRY HATES DEMS MORE – The Democrat Party hates ICE so much they regularly compare them to Nazis. With aid from the DNC’s agit prop machines (the corporate media), this Nazi narrative has MOST significantly eroded support for ICE. Though criminally exaggerated by the DNC media, in many instances, legitimate mistakes have been made by ICE which have also helped erode that support. The pressure on local communities due to the creation of deportation centers alone can take credit for much of that eroded support.

Despite all the DNC’s marketing advantages, however, the DNC is LESS popular with Americans than ICE is, with the Democrats hitting a 30% approval rating while ICE soars in comparison at 38%. There were 14 categories on the list; The Democrats finished ahead of only two, AI and Iran. President Trump and Pope Leo were tops with Trump at 41% and Leo at 42%. The poll was from NBC news.

  1. IRANIAN WOMEN’S SOCCER PLAYERS SAVED FROM FACING DYING REGIME – Five of the Iranian national women’s soccer team players have been granted asylum in Australia. This comes after Australia originally signaled it would not grant the women asylum. President Trump put social media pressure on Australia, and even invited the women to the U.S. should Australia let them down.

The women were at risk of being killed when they got home after protesting the regime during a soccer match in Australia. The women refused to sing along with the country’s national anthem. Afterwards, eyewitnesses said they were hand signaling to people they needed to help. Australia’s Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke declared on X, “Last night I was able to tell five women from the Iranian Women’s Soccer team that they are welcome to stay in Australia, to be safe and have a home here.”

  1. APPEALS COURT STRIKES DOWN ORDER ENDING DEPORTATIONS TO “THIRD COUNTRIES” – After another Progmerican judge, District Judge Brian Murphy, attempted lawfare sabotage of Trump’s deportation program, a 3-panel appeals court paused that stay for full court review. Murphy ruled that the Trump administration could not deport illegals to “third countries.” The 3-judge panel ruled “after careful review” a temporary pause of the order “is appropriate.” They promised to follow up with a prompt ruling, which indicates the high probability the ruling will officially strike down the unconstitutional effort at lawfare sabotage by a Progmerican judge.
  2. EEOC ENDS TRANS WOMEN IN FEDERAL SINGLE-SEX BATHROOMS – The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity commission (EEOC) voted to reverse the Biden administration’s policy of allowing transgender women into women’s federal single-sex bathrooms. The commission voted 2-1 to affirm an appellate ruling nullifying the Biden administration’s use of Title VII to justify the policy change.

EEOC Chair Andrea Luca said of the decision, “Today’s opinion is consistent with the plain meaning of ‘sex’ as understood by Congress at the time Title VII was enacted, as well as longstanding civil rights principles: that similarly situated employees must be treated equally. When it comes to bathrooms, male and female employees are not similarly situated,” she added. “Biology is not bigotry.”

  1. MEDIA, MAMDANI PROTECT ISLAMIST IED ATTACKERS WHILE VILIFYING WHITES, CHRISTIANS – The media coverage of the IED attack by two Islamists on a Christian anti-Muslim rally not only accused the Christians of being white supremacists (which they appear to actually be, in this case), they also accused the Christians of throwing the IEDs themselves. Mayor Mamdani of New York focused his ire for the “white supremacists,” but only condemned the IEDs being tossed. He failed to mention the Islamists behind the attack.

The attack was caught on video, so the internet already knew the Islamists were behind the attack, The two suspects are Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi, both of whom come from wealthy immigrant parents. They screamed “Allahu Akbar” when they threw the IEDs, which were all verified to be real. Had any one of them gone off (there were three total, two near the mayor’s mansion), it is highly likely there would have been multiple casualties.

  1. ENCRYPTED MESSAGES FROM IRAN MAY BE ACTIVATING SLEEPER TERROR CELLS IN U.S. – American intelligence agencies have intercepted encrypted messages from Iran that appear to be “operational trigger(s)” for “sleeper assets.” In the wake of the massive illegal alien invasion under the Biden administration, there is reason to believe this message could be reaching hundreds of teams. DHS Security advisor and Secret Service supervisor Charles Marino suggested the size of those teams could be as much as 20 people.

  1. ISLAMISTS ATTACK AMERICAN SYNAGOGUE, UNIVERSITY ON SAME DAY – On Thursday, March 12, 2026, two separate Islamists attempted to murder Americans, with one succeeding and the other being stopped before he could do further harm. Islamist Lebanese “immigrant” Ayman Mohammad Ghazali attempted to murder Jews at a Michigan synagogue. He was killed by security after driving his car into the synagogue.

Islamist Mohamed Jalloh was successful in his attack on Old Dominion University. He killed one and injured another before ROTC members stopped him and stabbed him to death. He killed one man, Lt. Colonel Brandon Shah. Had the ROTC members not stopped him, the death toll would likely have been much higher. The same goes for the synagogue attack; had security not stopped the Islamist, there would likely be many dead, including children who were present at the time of the attack.

  1. FBI SEIZES 2020, 2024 ELECTION RECORDS FROM NOTORIOUS MARICOPA COUNTY, AZ – Maricopa County, AZ is seen as the epicenter of 2020 election fraud suspicion, surpassing its closest rival, Fulton County, GA, in evidence that is difficult for skeptics to simply dismiss. Now that county is under an FBI microscope, with the announcement of election records being seized from Maricopa County from the bureau.

Republican State Senate President Warren Petersen confirmed the action by the FBI, posting on X, “Late last week I received and complied with a federal grand jury subpoena for records relating to the Arizona State Senate’s 2020 audit of Maricopa County. The FBI has the records. Any other report is fake news.”

  1. TRUMP DECLARES MORATORIUM ON LEGISLATION UNTIL SAVE ACT IS PASSED – President Trump is about to be tested after the U.S. Senate just passed a bill, a fair housing bill favored by the Democrats (but with bipartisan support). Before the passage, President Trump declaredI won’t sign any new legislation until SAVE Act is Passed.” The SAVE Act would make citizen-based photo ID required and would also end mass mailer elections (which are no elections at all).

John Thune appears to be doing everything he can to protect his RINO colleagues from vote accountability by pushing for a straight floor vote requiring 60 votes to pass. He has chosen this route rather than force his RINO colleagues to vote down a procedural change that would force the Democrats to do a verbal filibuster. Due to a procedural rule change that started to be exploited in the 70s, the procedural filibuster replaced the verbal one. This has allowed the filibuster to become a de facto requirement for nearly every bill passed by the Senate (which has sometimes helped the republicans).

  1. VA DEMS MOVE TO TAKE GUNS, CONTROL HISTORY NARRATIVES, AND CODIFY ANTI-WHITE RACISM – The Democrat Party of Virginia has moved aggressively to make the state in Progmerica’s image, passing numerous bills aimed at curbing American liberty. They passed one bill that freezes white men out of government contracts, another bill takes “assault weapons” from Americans, and one that mandates J6 be taught to children as only being an insurrection.

The three bills reflect Progmerica’s anti-white racist ideology, its disrespect for freedom of thought, and its fear of an armed citizenry it knows it is preparing to attack.

  1. THE DHS SHUTDOWN CONTINUES – Democrats are celebrating their continued shutdown of the DHS even AFTER the original reason for the shutdown, Kristi Noem’s continued leadership of the department, is already gone. President Trump has transferred Noem to South America to lead a new security project down there.

Yet, the Democrats continue to prevent the funding to pass the Senate, keeping the shutdown going. The latest vote saw it fail 51-46. It needs 60 votes to pass. Only one Democrat voted for it. Lines are beginning to get longer and longer at airports as the DHS runs out funding and can no longer provide the basic security it currently is.

  1. NOTE: The existence of the DHS is a constitutional question that should not be forgotten, but this shutdown is not about opposition to the DHS, it’s purely about opposition to the Trump deportation program being executed. They mean to save Progmerica from the America Trump is, in part, allowing to reform itself in the ashes of this broken land.

  1. UKRAINE, RUSSIA TRADE HAYMAKERS AS U.S. HOPES CEASEFIRE TALKS RESUME – The U.S. is hoping to restart ceasefire talks between Russia and Ukraine next week, but the appeal is set against aggressive moves by both Russia and Ukraine against one another. Ukraine, for instance, is now adding armed ground robots to its military operations, while Russia just dropped a 500-pound bomb on Ukraine. The front line has nominally moved, though both sides claim to have made recent advances.

  1. PROGMERICAN JUDGE ORDERS ICE TO NOT DEFEND ITSELF – A Progmerican judge has made another unhinged ruling intended to prevent ICE officers from effectively protecting their facilities from paid Progmerican street fighters, the so-called anti-ICE protestors. Michael Simon, traitor to the American republic, has ruled that officers cannot use non-lethal means of crowd dispersal or control unless the crowd poses an “imminent threat of physical harm”

Non-lethal crowd control is a means of preventing protests from becoming riots. This ruling effectively assures violence will happen at ICE facilities as ICE officers will only be able to respond once, effectively, lethal force is justified, and probably required. This is exactly what they want, ICE officers killing their street soldiers, who will all be portrayed by the Democrat media as choir boys and girls that didn’t do no harm. They were just mothers, sons, fathers, etc., not paid violent revolutionaries actively attempting to overthrow the republic.

  1. DEMOCRAT STATES SUE FOR THE RIGHT OF COLLEGES TO BE RACIST – 17 Democrat-controlled states have joined a lawsuit against the Trump administration over its insistence that colleges and universities do not use racist policies to select their students for admission. This followed a SCOTUS ruling that made it clear these race-based policies are unconstitutional. The Democrat-held states, Progmerican states, want to preserve their “right” to exclude white people from higher education, SCOTUS be damned.

  1. ABORTIONS ARE MOSTLY DONE WITH THE PILL NOW – Abortion clinics are shutting down across the U.S., but it’s not because Americans have repented of their child-sacrificing ways, it’s because they’ve gotten more efficient at it. Now, mothers can order death pills online that will murder their unborn baby, leaving them with having to flush the corpse out of their system a little each time they go to the bathroom. Those death pills are now the number one cause of preborn infant death in America today, and the number one choice for women of choice when they choose to murder their own child.

HEADLINES YOU MAY HAVE MISSED

  1. UK MOVES CLOSER TO SHARIA AS IT MOVES CLOSER TO CRIMINALIZING DOGS – The United Kingdom has fallen to Sharia. The evidence becomes more and more clear as the tiny island nation may have surpassed China in arrests of people for saying bad things online. The top protected class in the UK is the Muslim, then the Islamist immigrant, then the Rainbow Coalition, with Trans and non-binary as the stars of the group.

Now, the UK wants to make dogs illegal for the sake of its growing Muslim nation within, a nation that despises dogs. To prepare the British for the loss of their dogs, Starmer’s cabinet is working on legislation that would ban 67 dog breeds in the name of safety and health.

  1. UK SCHOOLS PREPARE STUDENTS FOR SHARIA REALITY – Kier Starmer’s Sharia UK is now preparing students to submit to Sharia standards by assuring they know how to obey Islamic law. Students will be instructed in limiting what they draw, what they express, what they do to assure they do not offend the new owners of the nation, the Islamists. Labour councils are now warning schools and students about what they are doing that might trigger the UK’s blasphemy laws. They are being instructed to conform to Sharia under threat of criminal prosecution.
  2. KIDS ARE CHEMICALLY “TRANSITIONING” THANKS TO ONLINE PHARMACIES – The Daily Caller Foundation has released a report that exposes “online pharmacies” as being sources for children to get access to “transition” drugs. Kurt Miceli, chief medical officer at DNH, summarized the report, claiming it “reveals how online pharmacies may enable minors to obtain cross-sex hormones with alarming ease.

“From websites listing online vendors across the globe to marketplaces for ‘homebrewed’ hormones, we found a multitude of troubling pathways that appear to bypass basic safeguards and regulatory oversight. Gender-confused kids should not be able to purchase potent, experimental medications with just a few simple clicks. These hormones carry significant risks, including effects that can be irreversible.

We urge the [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] and other federal agencies to investigate any potential unlawful sellers and, where appropriate, for states to do the same when their laws are being violated,” Miceli continued. “Protecting minors from unsafe and unregulated access to powerful cross-sex hormones must remain a priority.”

  1. CANADA OFFERS “SAME DAY” SUICIDES TO CITIZENS – If you want to kill yourself in Canada, you can go to a local suicide provider, get approval, and then be suicided all IN ONE DAY! This isn’t new, it’s just recently been exposed by the Canadian government. It has revealed thousands of citizens have already gotten approval for “Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD)” less than 24 hours before being suicided by the state’s suicide doctors. The most recent statistics show 16,500 Canadians were killed by assisted suicide in 2024 alone.

  1. RISING NUMBER OF “CHRISTIAN” COLLEGES INVITE ABORTIONISTS INTO THEIR INSTITUTIONS – One in seven Christian Colleges and Universities have established some form of association with abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood. 725 institutions were surveyed, with 114 found to have abortion industry connects. The report claimed, “A painstaking investigation into each school’s website revealed an alarming number of proabortion internships, promoted events, and class resources, along with advertised ‘health’ resources, volunteer opportunities, and general support of abortion.”
  2. FEMALE GENDERCIDE IN CHINA – China is committing female gendercide according to its own statistics, which shows there are 133 boys born for every 100 girls born. This statistic does not happen naturally, it only happens through selective abortions, specifically of girls. The statistics come from the country’s own just-released 2024 birth report.

By Paul Gordon Collier, Editor

“Woe to those who decree iniquitous decrees, and the writers who keep writing oppression, to turn aside the needy from justice and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!”Isaiah 10:1-2

“Behold, upon the mountains, the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace! Keep your feasts, O Judah; fulfill your vows, for never again shall the worthless pass through you; he is utterly cut off.”Nahum 1:15

The DNC-CCP has a news war machine now openly inciting violence with clearly untruthful declarations. It does so in a coordinated manner that reflects the will and purpose of the DNC-CCP.

They hide between the claim they are the free press, but laws already exist on the books that they are clearly violating, laws which prohibit the DNC-CCP news war machine from being a content marketer for a political party (without disclosing it) using terroristic threats and incitements of violence to do so.

The Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) of 1971 prohibits campaign advertising that is not labeled campaign advertising. There is a press exemption that excludes news stories, commentaries or editorials if the publisher is not owned/controlled by a candidate, party, or committee. As it is recognized as a potential loophole for abusers, the FEC does have some power to determine whether this is actual journalism and not a disguised political ad.

The Communications Act of 1934 has sections that requires broadcast publishers to disclose all sponsorships, political or otherwise. Broadcasters must maintain records available for public inspections disclosing those sponsorships. This affects TV, cable, satellite TV, radio, and satellite radio.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has some power to regulate advertising, though it mostly uses this power to regulate commercial advertising. Yet the power to act against political advertising is not explicitly forbidden. This power comes through Section 4 of the FTC Act on Native Advertising.

Under Brandeburg v. Ohio, 1969, SCOTUS established a precedent for the limits on government to restrict speech that is deemed as “inciting” in nature. The key framework is the speech must be “directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action” and must also “likely… incite or produce such action.”

In 18 U.S.C. § 1038 (False Information and Hoaxes), spreading false information with the intent to incite violence is a criminal offense. Each penalty includes fines and usually up to 5 years in prison, but longer sentences are not prohibited.

This provision is mostly intended to target claims of terrorist or WMD attacks, such as claiming the Federal government was sending out Nazis to round up brown-skinned Americans.

These laws have been on the books for some time, available to every Department of Justice going back at least to the Nixon administration. Yet, every year since these laws have been on the books the corporate media became increasingly overtly partisan.

As media companies were absorbed, the partisanship became more pronounced. It has now come to the point that is apparent to the casual outsider that their narratives are coordinated between the corporate media outlets and the Democrat party. If this were proven to be true, many corporate media executives, journalists, and talking heads would face years in prison, as they justly should.

Today, 6 major companies control 90% of the news signal, and that number is headed to 5 soon enough with the announced merger of Paramount with Warner Bros. Discovery.

Today, these corporate news outlets have become, in part, disinformation war machines executing a brutal psychological war on American citizens, with the only major pushback coming in the form of lawsuits, mostly (with some exceptions) by the most powerful. President Trump has made media companies pay him millions for their intentional agit prop campaigns aimed at destroying his Presidency, again and again and again.

They represent Progmerica, a nation born from within us, starting in 1913, with the creation of the foundation that would build their nation, the creation of the income tax, the death of state legislative elections of the Senate, and the creation of the Federal Reserve.

With these three entities, using American language, but with changed terms, they built their Empire within, using tools that allowed them to circumvent the slow republican machine. They could appeal to the masses with emotional campaigns, promising them the moon but offering them only slavery (which they will blame on their adversaries).

They could create Wilson’s dream, a Democracy that rubber stands the true power, the regulator class, the “deep state” you’ve heard so much about.

We do understand Progmerica began as a pejorative, but nonetheless, the pejorative is accurate. Progmerica is the metastasizing Progressive parasite within America that began semi-officially in 1913. They are not Americans, but their rise depended entirely on American power to do so. The “merican” is the dead host body of America, the Prog is the parasite within now poking its head out of the corpse, becoming the new head of the new parasite nation.

Politicians are there to write vaguely-termed legislation that can be “adapted” on the fly by regulators, a power this writer presumes no founding father would approve of, an Empire of policy writers, bureaucrats, who themselves relied on corporate sponsorship and approval to rise to the ranks to be one of them someday.

Of course, it’s more complex than what I’m describing, but my description captures the overall reality of the system that has emerged since Wilson’s Hive.

These past few years, that Hive has come VERY CLOSE to fully transforming America to Progmerica, the fundamental transformation Barack Obama promised in 2008 to those who understood the dog whistle.

Their nation, however, without the American bones, will quickly dissolve into the Soviet, with no name attributed to the now-soulless land at all. It was Americanism that was allowing your profitless system to continue as long as it has so far.

Where lies are not censored, truth thrives. This is the secret power of America, not its diversity, its ability to unite disparate groups willing to let lies live to be silenced by truth alone, even when the lies are directed at themselves (something the conservatives are still not fully prepared to live out).

Just recently, the death of the Ayatollah Khamenei has revealed the seditious nature of a press whose spirit aligns with Progmerica. To the progressive, a powerful America is more of a threat to their global utopian fantasy than a powerful Ayatollah Khamenei will ever be. Within their country, the press is loyal and patriotic, but within America, they are quislings no longer hiding their treason.

Whatever you feel about America’s involvement in Iran or its support of Israel, you would not mourn the death of a bloodthirsty tyrant who only recently oversaw the slaughter of tens of thousands of his own citizens for daring to want to throw the shackles of his regime off.

If you hate America so much that you love the Ayatollah, you might be a Progmerican. The DNC 6 (the corporate media) chose violence, they chose the Ayatollah. They practically lauded this murderer-rapist. They chose to portray him as an avuncular character well-loved by his people. They knowingly spread misinformation intended to embolden the terror cells we know for a fact already exist, both Iranian and Progmerican ones.

They are reinforcing the sense of injustice in the hearts of killers who already want to murder Americans, and they are doing this intentionally. They want murder. They want chaos. They want to stop Trump. They want to finish America off once and for good.

The laws are there already to prosecute these traitors on multiple fronts. The discovery such investigations could yield will also get these corporate Progmericans life in prison (or worse), for this writer believes the connection between the DNC 6 and the CCP will be overwhelming. The depth of collusion between the CCP and our “American” (Progmerican) corporations will one day infuriate and grieve this nation.

The dilemma in Iran for the Americans and Israelis is figuring out how much of Iran’s military power you want to debase. If you leave them defenseless, you bring American soldiers to Iran, and nobody wants that. There would be no support for such an action. Therefore, the Trump administration must decide how much power to keep intact for the next regime, the next (hopefully) American-friendly regime.

This is the same dilemma Trump faces when he looks at the great sociocultural-engineering power built by Progmerica all around him. He has confidence his team will win, Trumpmerica will triumph, and if they destroy too much of Progmerica’s power, they might be defenseless against the next threat.

This, I believe, is why he is protecting the Epstein network from rightful accountability. This, also, is why I believe he is NOT using the laws on the books to dismantle the DNC-CCP’s agit prop “news” machine, because he wants to replace it, not kill it.

The merger of Paramount with Warner Discovery will put a Trump supporter in the seat of power of one of the remaining 5, but that 1 is not American, he is a Trumpian, for Americans would wish to see the whole system dismantled, the info-terrorists brought to justice, and their assets sold to Americans.

This could be done, today, if Trump didn’t want to preserve the sociocultural engineering agit prop news power for himself, or at least for his “progeny.”

Since its inception, the printed word as “news” has been used intentionally often to knowingly spread misinformation to incite violence against their enemies or raise soldiers for their cause. Our American journalistic tradition starts in England, during the English Civil War, when pamphleteers fired off sensationalist stories that the writers most likely knew were false or were based on the rumors that supported their cause.

Wherever there is news, there is some degree of deceptive content marketing going on, so governing news, in general, is difficult, until it gets so obvious that talking heads are on tv news shows telling their viewers Trump will re-enslave black people if he’s elected.

We’re supposed to believe the person(s) who said that didn’t know this wasn’t true. We’re supposed to believe that person(s) didn’t know such a statement would incite violence.

The bar to prove intentional dissemination of obviously false information should be very high. It should be so high that more people will get away with doing this than the people who would be successfully prosecuted for it.

Proving intent to incite violence should be equally difficult for the state, but not impossible. In some instance, intent is prima fasci, like telling listeners ICE agents are Nazis after ICE agents have been ambushed and attacked by terror cells (which are now including children).

If we get out of here alive, so to speak, “history” will marvel in horror at the level of psychological terror inflicted on the American people by their own corporations. Yet as horrible as that has been, and continues to be, what has been going on in state schools for children is far, far worse, and crosses over into war crime territory.

Telling white children their parents are the devil, and they now have sin skins is pure unadulterated evil, and many state agents, “teachers” deliver this terrorist assault on children every day, paid by taxpayers to do so.

If the motivation wasn’t evil from the start, the phenomenon of majorityism would be taught as a universal human problem, not an exclusively white one, as these teachers deceptively tell their children (to the detriment of that child’s psycho-social well-being).

But I will save that for another day.

In light of this reality, I am asking our readers to make it a habit to take in news from multiple sources. I aggregate news and archive blurbs, along with the ones I write, on mindfulintelligence.news. We analyze and write from an Americanist Christian perspective.

We speak in prophetic language, meaning we seek to unveil sterile terms to reveal the depravity these terms really conceal. Isaiah, Ezekial, and Jeremiah are our plumblines. For instance, we often call the DNC the DNC-CCP because, in spirit and most likely materially, these two factions are working together even as they also hope one day to be the hegemon of the same dream, ecumenical socialism.

You can go to mindfulintelligence.news and use the search to get an aggregate sample of news from the DNC 6, independent media, global media, regional global media, and conservative corporate media.

As surely as the Apostle Paul lauded the Bereans for checking his words against scripture, so I would ask you to never assume any news outlet, including ours, is speaking infallible truth. Do not take our word for anything until you’ve stewarded that belief for yourself. Be a Berean with the news.

In the midst of the aggregates alone, can one hope to find truth in today’s agit-prop heavy news environment.

The DNC has far more in common with the CCP than it does America (which members of this faction routinely call Nazi, Fascist, or dog whistles of white supremacism. BOTH are existentially threatened by Americanism, and both are most likely working to vanquish their common enemy, America.

“Dog Whistle” in the mouth of a Progmerican itself is a dog whistle for gnostic truth, truth based on the status of the individual, not the context of the individual’s truth claims within observable reality.

President Trump is not willing to end the deep state power because he wants to preserve it. He’s not brave enough to be called an American and he’s doesn’t hate America enough to be called a Progressive.

He is a liminal figure who has created space to change what was (An America slowly being taken over from within by Progmericans) to something new. That new thing can STILL BE to pivot to full-on Progressivism. Yet it can also change to an America restored and fulfilled or it can follow the Trumpmerican path he’s set us on (America-lite, which will collapse into full-on Progmericanism soon enough).

He can be the delay to the “inevitable takeover” by the progressives or he can be the path to full-on fulfillment of America’s promise.

Trump’s election, his power, represents indecision, a hedging of bets on the Progmerican emergent plan, but not a complete rejection of it. Let us hope there are far more of us Americans than there are Progmericans and Trumpmericans, for failure to restore and fulfill our republic will ultimately end in the disintegration of our unity and the rise of competing tyrant kingdoms desperately racing to build the one AI machine that will control them all.

America’s greatness is in her future potential to consistently live out her self-stewardship standards, not in her past struggles, failures, and even her successes. Failure to reach that potential will result in the failure of the American project.

So long as the news war machines continue to whir and spew disinformation campaigns intended to demoralize Americans, infuriate Progmericans, and incite violence in general, our future remains in grave doubt. Handing that power over to Trumpmerica will not save or fulfill America, it will only assure America is never fulfilled.

“As (Kavanaugh) explains, the Court’s decision … cannot be justified as a matter of statutory interpretation. Congress authorized the President to ‘regulate … importation. Throughout American history, the authority to ‘regulate importation’ has been understood to include the authority to impose duties on imports….

As I suggested over a decade ago, the nondelegation doctrine does not apply to ‘a delegation of power to make rules governing private conduct in the area of foreign trade,’ including rules imposing duties on imports. Therefore, to the extent that the Court relies on ‘separation of powers principles’ to rule against the President is mistaken.”Clarence Thomas on the SCOTUS Tarriff ruling

INTRODUCTION

Americans waited for days, weeks, and months to learn what the Supreme Court of the United States would say about President Trump’s use of tariffs under the IEEPA Act (International Emergency Economic Powers).

The long delay in the ruling led many to believe it would be a partial win and loss for the President, but in the end, it would turn out to be a loss, but not a definitive one. The court refused to clean up the mess its ruling has already produced, the scramble for tariff refunds from domestic and foreign interests (a scramble well under way).

It also only selectively struck down tariffs made through the IEEPA Act, not tariffs in general (though the precedent set by this court might eventually do so).

The President responded with defiant words, but compliant action. He chose not to challenge what seems to many Americans to be an on-its-face unconstitutional power grab from the court. He chose instead to create new tariffs through other laws, while offering threats to American companies to attempt to stave off the refund hell coming our way thanks to what this writer considers to be (and has considered for a long time) an anti-American rogue court. In short, this is a Progmerican court, which is NOT American at all.

We analyze Roberts’ ruling primarily, Trump’s response, the market’s response, the global response, and finally offer a Predictive Analysis of where this might be going next.

A. THE RULING

SCOTUS Chief Justice John Roberts, who invented a tax to save Obamacare, is once again using the invention of a tax to save America’s enemies from the President’s foreign policy.

In his decision, he wrote, “The President asserts the extraordinary power to unilaterally impose tariffs of unlimited amount, duration, and scope. In light of the breadth, history, and constitutional context of that asserted authority, he must identify clear congressional authorization to exercise it… IEEPA’s grant of authority to “regulate . . .importation. “

This is a claim that fails basic scrutiny if one goes back more than 50 years. Tariffs have been traditionally used as foreign policy levers mostly from the moment nations started using them, sometimes through congressional action, sometimes through Presidential action. The fact that an IEEPA justification hasn’t been used does not remotely attack the legitimacy of tariffs as foreign policy tools.

The most talked-about example came in 1971, when Nixon imposed an import surcharge of 10% on all dutiable imports. The move was intended to strengthen the American dollar by pressuring allies to open their markets to the U.S.

In 1974, congress passed the Jackson-Volt amendment to the Trade Act of 1974, which cut America’s communist enemies, like Russia and China, from Most-Favored-Nation status, effectively raising tariffs on all of them.

It was after 1974 that America began using tariffs less and less, switching instead to international law standards. By 1994, tariffs were all but nullified. For Roberts, history must not begin until after 1974.

Roberts continues, “IEEPA contains no reference to tariffs or duties. The Government points to no statute in which Congress used the word “regulate” to authorize taxation.”

Here Roberts is playing the tax semantic game, assuming the side effect of foreign policy, de facto taxation, is enough to nullify tariffs as a Presidential tool, yet he did not unilaterally deny the President’s power to levy tariffs.

By this logic, the IEEPA law is irrelevant to the point, it’s about tariffs as a tax only, and not a primary foreign policy decision that costs Americans money (as many foreign policy decisions do).

By Roberts’ logic, the President would be barred from making ANY foreign policy decision that could cost Americans money, for, by his logic, that would have the net effect of being a tax. In the case of Obamacare, the primary right being challenged was the government’s right to create a healthcare monopoly, a state corporation, which the constitution flat-out doesn’t permit. There is no explicit power to create a state healthcare system, but Roberts still allowed it then, because taxation makes it constitutional.

Roberts chose to deny the constitution and protect Obamacare by declaring it a tax. He rejected the higher principle being violated for the lesser principle being executable. Here, he is doing the opposite, he is rejecting the higher principle, the ESSENTIAL right of a President to enact foreign policy. He is ALSO rejecting the President’s power to define what an emergency is, despite the fact that his decision explicitly denies it.

On one hand, he faults the IEEA law for not EXPLICITELY allowing tariffs as a means of response within the IEEA framework, while on the other hand he CREATES explicit standards that have never existed in the history of this country, that tariffs should be viewed primarily as a tax, which ultimately undermines ALL tariffs.

Roberts continues his artless sophistry, claiming THIS as a legal consideration, “until now no President has read IEEPA to confer such power. We claim no special competence in matters of economics or foreign affairs. We claim only, as we must, the limited role assigned to us by Article III of the Constitution. Fulfilling that role, we hold that IEEPA does not authorize the President to impose tariffs.”

His anti-American reasoning is that the IEEPA must EXPLICITELY spell out the tools the President can use in carrying out that law. He does this by arguing that “regulate” doesn’t mean taxation, therefore the IEEPA doesn’t allow taxation to be used. The distinction, as the dissenting justices point out, is pedantic, devoid of any legal substance.

Article III imposes no power on SCOTUS to rule tariffs are primarily a tax and thus can’t be used in regulating the economy in a time of emergency, to be determined by the President, not the quisling Roberts. He fulfilled the role of traitor at least, and CCP collaborationist at worst, in his ruling, for only China will benefit from this anti-American death ruling.

This decision is on its face a gross violation of American rule of law. It is every bit as unconstitutional as the Obamacare ruling, a ruling Roberts made possible with his deciding vote.

This ruling shows the fundamental danger of allowing anti-American human beings like the SCOTUS 6 into American institutions, human beings that clearly do not understand or respect American rule of law. These “justices” are Progmericans at heart, aliens in the land they presume to judge. No progressive has any business being involved in American politics, let alone American courts.

This ruling is, in part, why I am calling on constitutional amendments to make citizenship an agreed-upon covenant (with citizens today grandfathered in) and to create a legal power to remove citizenship rights from citizens that openly advocate for the violation of rights of other citizens.

All gun control advocates would immediately lose their right to bear arms since they can’t respect the rights of their neighbors to be self-stewarded individuals, people who can defend themselves against all enemies, foreign and domestic (in the case of the Progmerican within).

If these amendments existed today, Roberts and the whole SCOTUS group would lose their office, their right to bear arms, their right to vote, and their right to speak sedition in public against the American people (as they did in this ruling).

In this instance, this ruling has set dangerous precedents that are sure to be exploited by Progmerican judges to destroy Rule of law even further. Now, the whisper of the tariff precedent has already been set, and, despite any cautions by Roberts and his cohort of Progmerican traitors to the contrary, the door is now wide open to end tariffs as a means of Presidential power altogether.

We will get into the consequence of this ruling, which reveals just how devastating this ruling is to American power, a consideration that never entered the minds of the quislings who made such an obviously unconstitutional decision. Their refusal to rule on the chaos of potential refunds by American companies and foreign powers reveals the cowardice of a ruling they knew would aid America’s enemies and cripple her in return. It is an obvious act of sabotage by Roberts and the other SCOTUS 6 traitors.

They did not want to put into the record that they are directly complicit in creating utter chaos for the American republic at a time when our very survival is in question. This is the type of ruling that should have immediately produced defiance from the Trump administration. It crossed the line from legally tenable to outright sedition, which is plain to see for Americans, but not so much for Progmericans (or their frenemy, the Neocon).

This SHOULD HAVE been the moment Trump declared war on the DNC-CCP. Instead, he looked for new loopholes to escape the unconstitutional ruling.

The overall ruling was more complex than this, as parts of the ruling had a full majority while one ruling had a plurality decision. That decision hopes to create an anti-American standard that congress must approve any decision the President makes on “significant issues.”

B. TRUMP’S RESPONSE

President Trump had a long rebuttal to the unconstitutional ruling, but the heart of his message was this:

“It’s my opinion that the court has been swayed by foreign interests and a political movement that is far smaller than people would ever think. It’s a small movement. I won by millions of votes, we won in a landslide. With all the cheating that went on, there was a lot of it, we still won in a landslide. Too big to rig.

But these people are obnoxious, ignorant and loud. They’re very loud. And I think certain justices are afraid of that. They don’t want to do the right thing. They’re afraid of it.

This was an important case to me, more as a symbol of economic national security and also, I would say, just for our country itself, so important, because we’re doing so well as a country. We’ve never done so well.

The good news is that there are methods, practices, statutes and authorities, as recognized by the entire court in this terrible decision — and also as recognized by Congress, which they referred to — that are even stronger than the IEEPA tariffs available to me as president of the United States.”

In this writer’s opinion, Trump is most likely right when he claims foreign influence and partisan interests (or fears of the DNC terror machine) behind this clearly badly written sophistry-pregnant slight-of-hand ruling. You have to really HATE America to read into the law such an uncharitable take as these anti-justices did.

Notice the President continues to call his measures “IEEPA tariffs.” This is in open defiance of the unjust ruling that claims a broadly written law must offer specific tools that can be used to accomplish it, when that hasn’t been the precedent in the past. The only time that applies is when laws SPECIFICALLY limit the tools that can be used to enforce them.

Yet, the President chose to speak out both sides of his mouth, on one side all but accusing them of colluding with America’s enemies, an act of the highest order of treason, while at the same time respecting the ruling by changing his approach to using tariffs as foreign policy tools.

As we talk about in our Final Thought on pg. xx (News War Machines), this President seems to want to preserve SOME Progmerican power for himself, otherwise, he would move to destroy it.

In his defense, if you know you will lose for sure by moving against your enemy, you might want to bide time while you build up your power and continue to erode theirs.

This writer is just not certain that’s the reality he faces. If it is, then he’s doing the right thing by holding his powder. If it isn’t, he’s missing a great opportunity to finish off the Progmericans, at least for a couple of decades before the next threat reconstitutes itself (and it will).

He has already enacted a global 10% tariff tax and says he will use other laws with proven tariff applications historically to get the job done. What he hasn’t addressed in detail is what to do about the refund demands already happening, including from foreign powers.

C. AMERICAN BUSINESS RESPONSE

Immediately after this ruling, the leftist-leaning U.S. Chamber of Commerce immediately called forswift refunds of the impermissible tariffs.” Chief Policy Officer Neil Bradley attached his name to this action, a decision that might one day prove to be his undoing (and rightly so).

Joining this association was the National Retail Federation, which includes Walmart. They called for “a seamless process to refund the tariffs to U.S. importers.” They claim the refunds will be an “economic boost,” but for whom?

It won’t be an economic boost for a country diminished by an unconstitutional ruling. It will only embolden her enemies, which includes, apparently, these business associations (all taken over by Progmericans).

Walmart will be remembered for its failure here to stand up for America over corporate greed. The money they get back will NOT be passed on to the consumers, who’ve already paid for the tariff, it will go to the corporate leaders.

These were only the start of business associations that quickly lined up to get refunds, despite SCOTUS not ruling at all on the constitutionality of refund-seeking, or how that will come about. The ruling was so reckless they refused to create a mechanism to deal with the mess their ruling created. This is intentional sabotage at work, not judicial caution.

The President threatened these companies with worse deals if they tried to do what they are doing, choosing profit over American security. This writer hopes he follows through with that threat. If you think the left really opposes corporate power, witness their overwhelming support for the corporations seeking profit-taking over national well-being.

These companies prove these American businesses are not run by Americans at all, and as such we should move to nationalize the progressive businesses and sell them to Americans. This might seem ridiculous right now, but within a year or two tops, this call will be echoed by a lot more Americans than me.

D. FOREIGN POWERS RESPONSE

This is a quote from a Grok research pull we did for this paper. We asked Grok how the foreign powers reacted to this ruling. Here is what Grok said about China, “[China] Emerged as a significant beneficiary, with analysts noting a substantial reduction in effective U.S. tariff rates on Chinese goods (e.g., from around 32% to 24% in some estimates, as many IEEPA layers were removed while Section 301/232 tariffs persisted). China called for the U.S. to lift unilateral tariffs on trading partners and stated it would ‘comprehensively assess’ future U.S. changes while adjusting countermeasures as needed. This was seen as strengthening China’s negotiating position ahead of planned high-level talks.”

Grok itself recognizes the power this ruling gives to our current greatest enemy, China. This factor alone should have stopped the quislings from making such a sophistry-laden decision, one that invented a tax standard in favor of ending a President’s power to deal with existential threats at a pivotal point in our history.

By any stretch of the imagination, this was hardly a black and white issue, and legal experts were divided from the start on what the ruling “should be.” They had to take the most uncharitable view to get to the ruling that damages America the most, while empowering and enabling her worst enemies, including China.

While foreign powers might be less inclined to push aggressively for refunds (for fear of inviting Trump’s new tariff counters), they will now be even more incentivized to seek to influence these same judges to continue to rule in their favor, gutting the American presidency in preparation for creating the Progmerican one.

America’s military power is undisputed. Her enemies know this, and they rely on this SCOTUS, and similar quislings within American institutions, to undermine us with soft power from within, with Progmericans who are naturally more aligned with the CCP than George Washington.

PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS

So far, President Trump’s threats for more tariffs have not materialized. He has enacted the 10% global tariff, but he failed to follow through with his threat that he’d bump it up to 15%.

The President’s ability to use tariffs quickly, and to modify them just as quickly, might be all but gone after this ruling, a likely possibility that in and of itself should tell you why this ruling was wholly illegal and sabotaging to U.S. security in every way imaginable.

I’d add a caveat here: Tariff law is complex and somewhat untested until quite recently. There could be a rock-solid path for Trump going forward that is even unassailable by the best sophistic justices out there, but I am highly skeptical such a secret super law weapon exists.

This ruling signals to me either an emboldening of the Progmerican nation within us, or desperation. What Trump’s tariffs have been doing is hammering away at International Rule of Law, a game whose motte of “rule of law” hides its bailey of “diminish American and nation-state powers,” which is what International Law has largely morphed into. THIS is what SCOTUS was protecting, most likely due to threats or profit from foreign powers, including Progmerican organizations in America.

Now, Trump will have to return to those Progmerican international courts to make foreign policy moves against ongoing existential threats to our existence (ESPECIALLY from China, who has its own domestic existential problems).

Failure by the rearguard of the DNC, the RNC, to pass the SAVE Act, the act requiring photo ID and paper ballots for federal elections, will result in a DNC majority in the House, and possibly the Senate.

The DNC-CCP is already aligned with America’s existential enemy, China, so its power in the House will be continued to be used to cripple American power at the benefit of her enemies. To this end, expect impeachments that will come from the tariffs themselves, impeachments this writer believes this court knew full well they were legitimizing in advance.

Were emails or chats leaked one day showing collusion between the DNC and the justices to assure their ruling laid the groundwork for these impeachments, this writer would NOT be surprised. My understanding of human nature and our current reality of power strongly suggests this is highly probable (but not certain).

This writer has little confidence the GOP will muster enough votes and courage to force the SAVE Act through (as they could right now if the party were American, and not, at the top level at least, simply the DNC-CCP’s rearguard protector).

Trump has a few months to move fast to cripple our most pressing enemies, which right now are China, Russia, and Iran. He will not have the power to levy tariffs so easily through these other laws, which will limit his ability to quickly respond to actions by our adversaries in response; but he’ll still have some power. The question is, will he use them?

I am certain his lawyers are already working on plans to justify tariffs, and the enemy, the DNC-CCP and its allies (Progmerican-controlled business associations), are working hard to file lawsuits. These lawsuits will be filed with favorable district judges predisposed to stop Trump’s programs, if for no other reason than they believe they are stopping the Nazis by doing so (constitutional law be damned).

I expect courts favorable to the DNC-CCP to continue to allow the degradation of our security by rubber-stamping foreign powers’ efforts to use our own courts to sabotage our power. I expect some exceptions, as there are still American judges in our courts.

At the SCOTUS level, I expect this court to side with the resistance, and wherever sophistry can remotely be applied to justify the denial of Trump’s policies (to defeat Hitler, in their minds), they will do so. However, there are limitations, even for this rogue court. Some degree of a semblance of Americanism must still be maintained, at least for now.

For that reason, I expect SCOTUS to not fully shut down Trump’s tariff powers, but from here until the first District Court injunction, he has a limited time to act decisively using tariffs to target our enemies for economic warfare.

What many do not realize is this, American pax is over and everyone knows it. There is a new real scramble for power that will leave the losers in destitute circumstances. The race to build the one AI machine to rule them all is on, and Trump recognizes this; THAT is why he chose to use tariffs in this unprecedented, but legal (unprecedented doesn’t equal illegal, Mr. Roberts) way, for he understood the stakes are high.

The world is resetting its power structure, and competition is fierce to not become a subservient to the greater power, and it’s a competition America can lose, especially with Progmerica still fighting to take over from within, aided as they are by quislings in our courts, including our highest court, which should be renamed SCOP, the Supreme Court of Progmerican, which is NO AMERICA at all.

One of the worst offenders and best examples of the crimes being charged is Washington County Sheriff Milton Gaston. According to the indictment, he received “multiple monetary payments for his blessing for the cartel to operate in his county and use his deputies to protect the cartel’s illegal drug trafficking.”

All of the defendants agreed to “escort runs,” which the indictment claimed “ they were protecting the transportation of 25 kilos of cocaine, sometimes referred to as ‘birds,’ or, on October 5, 2023, the transportation of illegal narcotics proceeds, during the course of the investigation to build trust with the corrupt law enforcement officers, to lay the groundwork for future runs, and to take other action to further the drug trafficking conspiracy.”

In addition to the DNC threats, the officials are also facing an “ongoing foreign threat.”

In response to this ratcheting up of threats, the Trump administration is building “a quick reactionary force” in every state through the National Guard to deal with the rising DNC blue-shirts threats. Some of the officials include Marco Rubio, Kristi Noem, and Stephen Miller.

One of the assaulters is also a DNC Islamist, Jihad Dphrepaulezz, who was caught on video repeatedly punching a Christian demonstrator in the face after yanking his cross necklace off him. The police responded by arresting the victim, who was later released.

The DOJ has announced an investigation into the incident and the university is claiming it will cooperate with the investigation. It appears the Berkely police allowed Antifa terrorists to “break” their token barriers before they then moved in to arrest the victim of the most violent assault (but not the only one). TPUSA fought back when the police refused to help them.

FOREIGNERS GAVE THE DNC NGOS OVER $2 BILLION – In recent years, more than $2 billion has been sent to DNC-aligned far-left anti-Americanist groups, many with ties to Antifa affiliations, with no checks by regulators. A report from Americans for Public Trust (APT) has exposed the foreign money pipeline driving anti-American hate through DNC-affiliated groups.

APT Executive Director Caitlin Sutherland stated, “It is extremely alarming that five foreign charities have quietly poured almost two billion dollars into advocating for the most extreme liberal policies and protests in the United States. Since current laws regulating foreign giving to U.S.-based nonprofit organizations are hindered by a lack of oversight and exploitable exemptions and loopholes, foreign actors have been able to advance their radical and dangerous interests virtually unchecked. Congress needs to address these serious shortfalls in our laws to protect American interests and keep foreign influence out of our politics.”

  1. DEMOCRATS RELEASE EMAIL BY EPSTEIN CLAIMING TRUMP KNEW – The Democrats released an email from Jeffrey Epstein they say proves Trump knew Epstein was a pedophile before he severed ties with him. Epstein wrote, “I want you to realize that that dog that hasn’t barked is Trump. (Redacted name) spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. police chief. etc. im 75 % there.”

Epstein was writing to his assistant sex trafficker, Gislaine Maxwell. The name of the person they claim spent time with Trump was redacted unnecessarily, because the person is on public record as denying she ever spent time with Trump. The President’s downplaying of the Epstein files doesn’t help his case, but the person being named in this email testifying that wasn’t true is even more damaging to the Democrats’ claims.

Only years after this email did Epstein claim Trump “knew about the girls” in a separate DNC-released email. No emails related to the Clintons were released by the DNC, which adds to the credibility this was simply a misinformation character assassination campaign, standard operating procedure for the DNC.

The narrative was that ICE showed up to a daycare to arrest a preschool teacher in front of her students.

ICE wrote in response to one Democrat, who was pushing the DNC media narrative: “Congressman, you are deliberately misrepresenting the facts. ICE law enforcement did NOT target a daycare and were only at this location because the female illegal alien fled inside… (the woman and her male partner) ran into a daycare and attempted to barricade themselves inside the daycare — recklessly endangering the children inside. The illegal alien female was arrested inside a vestibule, not in the school. Upon arrest, she lied about her identity.”

  1. UK THINKS WE’RE STILL A COLONY? – Ofcom, the United Kingdom’s communications regulator has recently declared that Americans are not protected from UK prosecution for violating their soviet-styled speech laws when their social media posts reach their citizens. So far, talk of bills being written to deal with this foreign intrusion on American sovereignty is all that’s been seen in response to this assertion by the UK. They do this while they push forward with Online censorship, Digital ID, and now mass arrests of UK protesters.

The claim came effectively in an ongoing lawsuit in which Ofcom argued, “We also note 4chan’s claim that it is protected from enforcement action taken by Ofcom because of the First Amendment to the US Constitution. However, the First Amendment binds only the US government and not overseas bodies, such as Ofcom, and therefore, it does not affect Ofcom’s powers to enforce the Act in this case.”

In light of recent moves by the Soviet UK to sever intelligence ties with the U.S., the “special relationship” status of the UK under the Soviet regime is now coming into question as increasingly the Soviet UK finds itself ideologically and geopolitically opposed to the United States of America.

MEXICO CALLS U.S. FASCIST FOR GOING TO WAR AGAINST CARTELS – Mexico’s far left anti-Americanist President, Claudia Sheinbaum, continues to invite direct war with the U.S. The cartel-controlled President is now accusing the U.S. of being fascist for daring to go to war with the drug cartels wreaking havoc on American soil. Sheinbaum claimed, “Returning to the war against the narco is not an option — first, because it is outside the framework of the law.”

She went on to elaborate that going to war with cartels violates their due process rights even as cartels in her own country continue to openly murder elected government officials in what can only be described as an insurrectionist act of war. Her comments are sure to continue to push Americans towards supporting an eventual war with Mexico should Sheinbaum remain in power. It should also be noted that “due process” standards in Mexico fall far short of American “due process” standards. By Mexico’s standards, the U.S. is doing nothing wrong.

  1. THAILAND PAUSES TRUMP-BROKERED PEACE DEAL WITH CAMBODIA – Thai Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul is suspending his ceasefire deal with Cambodia after he accused Cambodia of being behind a landmine explosion. The explosion killed 43 people. It is disputed if the landmine was laid before the ceasefire or after it. The PM said of his country’s decision, “The hostility towards our national security has not decreased as we thought it would.”

  1. CATHOLICS CHAFFE AT VATICAN’S LIMITATIONS ON DIVINE POWERS OF MARY – A document from the Vatican is recommending churches do not use the phrase “Mediatrix of ALL Graces,” claiming Revelation does not validate the term and it puts onlimits that do not favor a correct understanding of Mary’s unique place.” Catholics argue the OPPOSITE is true, it is the Vatican LIMITING Mary’s powers.

Catholics fighting back reference an encyclical on the Immaculate Conception by Pope Pius IX in 1849 that claimed, “God has committed to Mary the treasury of all good things, in order that everyone may know that through her are obtained every hope, every grace, and all salvation. For this is His will, that we obtain everything through Mary.”

Protestants would dispute both the papal and the traditional Catholic claims on the nature of Mary, citing, Luke 11:27-28, “As he said these things, a woman in the crowd raised her voice and said to him, ‘Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts at which you nursed!’ But he said, ‘Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and keep it!’”

  1. TRUMP THREATENS NIGERIA OVER CHRISTIAN GENOCIDE, NIGERIA AGREES WITH TRUMP? – Daniel Bwala, the advisor to Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu, told Reuters that his country was more than willing to allow President Donald Trump to help them deal with the Islamists slaughtering Christians so long as Trump respected their sovereignty. The advisor was responding to Trump’s Truth Social warning threatening Nigeria over the latest mass killing of Christians by Nigerian Islamists.

  1. NEW HAMPSHIRE’S FIRST TRANSGENDERED LAWMAKER IS CONVICTED OF CHILD PORN POSSESSION, SOLICITATION – NH State Representative Stacie Laughton (D) has pled guilty to charges of sexual exploitation of children. The representative is the state’s first-ever transgendered elected official. Laughton is a man choosing to present as a woman. The trans rights activist confessed to asking his girlfriend, who worked at a daycare, to send him nude pics of kids. She admitted to complying with his request.

  1. EU BANS LARGE CASH PAYMENTS – The European Union (EU) will ban all cash purchases over $11,500 beginning in January 2027. This draconian change was not made through legislation that was debated and voted on; it was created through regulation. Unelected EU bureaucrats simply chose to make the change, claiming it is purely to target criminals.

In addition to that, new laws already passed will soon require anyone using or holding cryptocurrency to do so through a digital ID system, assuring no anonymity in the transaction of value between humans. By 2029, the EU plans on rolling out their digital currency, which they intend on being the replacement for physical currency. Digital currency turbo-charge governments’ ability to control transactions, create instant “magic value,” and micromanage the currency markets.

  1. U.S. MINT STRIKES ITS FINAL PENNY – On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, the U.S. mint in Philadelphia struck its last-ever-penny, ending a 232-year tradition. The move comes following a Presidential order by President Trump. Every penny made costs 4 cents to make, costing the American taxpayer millions of dollars each year. In February, the President wrote “For far too long the United States has minted pennies which literally cost us more than 2 cents. This is so wasteful!”
  2. FCC CONSIDERS THIRD RAIL MOVE THAT COULD REVOLUTIONIZE “NETWORK TELEVISION”– The FCC is considering abolishing what has been called the third rail in broadcasting politics, the national ownership cap. This cap is set at 39%, which means station owners cannot own more than 39% of the affiliates of a national broadcaster’s network.

The move is being considered to allow, theoretically, conservative affiliate owners a chance to push back against anti-American broadcasting, with the Jimmy Kimmel kerfuffle being the foil for the theoretical action.

  1. CHINA’S ELECTRIC CARS CONTROLLED BY CCP? – A Norwegian public transport company has found that Chinese-made electric vehicles have security flaws built into them that allow their Chinese manufacturers to remotely access them and even control them. This means they can be turned into saboteurs and user data is going back to the CCP.

Arild Tjomsland, one of the investigators, claimed, “The Chinese bus can be stopped, turned off, or receive updates that can destroy the technology that the bus needs to operate normally.”

  1. AMA ABANDONS TRANS SURGERIES FOR KIDS – The American Medical Association, a bastion of Progmericanism, has conceded the battle against children by announcing it no longer supports transgender surgery for children. The association stated, “the evidence for gender-affirming surgical intervention in minors is insufficient for us to make a definitive statement…the AMA agrees with ASPS that surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”

This followed up this comment from the organization in 2021, “The American Medical Association (AMA) today strengthened its established position opposing the governmental intrusion into the practice of medicine that is detrimental to the health of transgender and gender-diverse children and adults. Legislatures in 20 states this year proposed banning physicians and other health care professionals from providing medically necessary gender-affirming care to transgender and gender-diverse youth…”

  1. DEMOCRACY SUPPORTS ICE DEPORTATIONS, DEMOCRATS – According to the Democrats’ standards, “Democracy” is America’s central value. As such, news that Americans OVERWHELMINGLY support deporting illegal aliens (61 to 34 percent according to a Cygnal poll) is sure to cause the Democrats to stop calling for ICE agents to be terrorized by their insurgent army.
  2. WASHINGTON POST GETS EVISCERATED, INCLUDING SEASONED “JOURNALISTS” – The Washington Post announced another round of massive cuts, this time of 30% of its staff. This includes 300 of its reporters, including a few seasoned ones. Among those journalists include every reporter and editor that covers the Middle East.

The former executive editor of the Washington Post, Marty Barron, commented on the announced cuts, saying “This ranks among the darkest days in the history of one of the world’s greatest news organizations. The Washington Post’s ambitions will be sharply diminished, its talented and brave staff will be further depleted, and the public will be denied the ground-level, fact-based reporting in our communities and around the world that is needed more than ever.”

  1. UN CHIEF BEGS MEMBERS FOR CASH TO KEEP PROJECT ALIVE – After the dust has settled post-Davos, it appears the great ecumenical project, the United Nations, might not make it out of the room alive. The UN’s Secretary-General António Guterres sent an urgent missive out at the end of January of 2026 to ALL 193 member nations. The letter warned of an “imminent financial collapse” should the member nations not kick in more funds IMMEDIATELY. The UN has $1.56 billion in outstanding dues, which has doubled from the previous year.
  2. TRUMP, GOP BUILD MASSIVE WAR CHEST LEAD OVER DNC AHEAD OF 2026 ELECTIONS – The RNC has $95 million cash in hand compared to the DNC, which has $14 million cash in hand, but $17 million in debt. The RNC is also debt-free. As of the end of 2025, Trump’s Super PAC, MAGA Inc., has raised $289 million in 2025 alone. MAGA Inc. is the biggest Super PAC, with Fairshake, a “Pro-crypto” Super PAC, coming in second at $194 million. A distant third was Leading the Future, a Pro-AI Super PAC, coming in at $39 million.
  3. AMERICANS DEFEAT NEW SANCTUARY COUNTY IN ROCKLAND COUNTY – Disconnected leaders in Rockland County, NY thought their constituents would approve of their county becoming a sanctuary city for illegal aliens. The proposal looked to go through until Rockland County residents showed up in the hundreds to assure their leaders didn’t move to choose foreigners’ best interests over Americans’ best interests.

The call by GOP lawmakers set off the alarms that inspired the immediate, strong reaction from the citizens needed to quell this act of insurrection before it ever started. The GOP legislators warned, “This legislation prioritizes ideology over safety, weakens cooperation between levels of government, and places unnecessary financial and security burdens on our community. Ultimately, sanctuary counties fail the most basic responsibility of government: protecting the public. No political statement is worth compromising safety, accountability, or the rule of law.”

  1. ROUTH GETS LIFE FOR TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT – After being found guilty of attempting to assassinate President Trump, Ryan Routh has been sentenced to life in prison. U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon gave the prosecution the sentence they asked for. Prosecutors argued, “Routh’s crimes undeniably warrant a life sentence—he took steps over the course of months to assassinate a major Presidential candidate, demonstrated the will to kill anybody in the way, and has since expressed neither regret nor remorse to his victims.”
  2. TRUMP WINS IN COSTA RICA – President Donald Trump’s preferred candidate for Costa Rica’s Presidential race has won her campaign. Laura Fernandez, a populist conservative for the Sovereign People’s Party, beat her far left rival, Alvaro Ramos of the National Liberation Party 48% to 33%. Fernandez was favored by President Trump. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated, “Under her leadership, we are confident Costa Rica will continue to advance shared priorities to include combating narco-trafficking, ending illegal immigration to the United States, promoting cybersecurity and secure telecommunications, and strengthening economic ties.”
  3. TARIFFS MOVE U.S. STEEL TO THIRD IN WORLD – Thanks to the steel tariffs enacted by President Donald Trump, the U.S. Steel industry is on the rise. After decades of decline that saw Japan pass the U.S. in 1999, the industry is seeing expansions it hasn’t seen sine then. Now, the U.S. is once again ahead of Japan in steel production, moving into third in the world. In addition to steel tariffs, the President’s actions to cut regulatory red tape has also contributed to this growth.
  4. MELANIA DOC MAKES MILLIONS, FORCES AMAZON TO ADD NEW THEATERS – The documentary about the current First Lady Melania Trump called “Melania” had a limited release that couldn’t prevent it from reaching sales numbers for documentary films that haven’t been seen in 14 years, earning more than $7 million its first weekend. While critics predictably panned it, audiences reacted well to the film. The success of the film means more than 200 theaters will be added to the release the next weekend.

  1. THE AYATOLLAH IS DEAD! – Less than 48 hours after the U.S. and Israel launched their historic air assault on the Iranian Regime, almost all of its top leaders across all major institutions are dead, and that includes the Ayatollah Khamenei, whose 47-year reign of terror over his own people has finally come to an end. His first replacement was killed soon after he was appointed. While the DNC-CCP press mourns his loss, Americans, Iranians, and freedom-loving people of the world celebrate the end of his tyrannical reign.
  2. 2. THE NEW LEADERSHIP OF IRAN IS ALREADY DEAD – By the time you see this, Iran may very well have selected a new group of future military targets, their new leadership. They had to select a new leadership not because the Khomeini leadership was killed, but because their replacements were. The leadership meeting to select the replacements of the Khomeini leadership happened in Tehran, where the entire leadership gathered was killed, according to U.S. and Israeli officials.
  3. THE LEFT’S HOLD ON BOY SCOUTS IS BROKEN – Scouting America has now committed to end its DEI programs, recognize the biological binary sex reality of humans, and separate the boys from the girls. The move came after Secretary of War Pete Hegseth informed the organization that failure to uncouple anti-American leftism from their standards would result in the Department of War ending its relationship with them.
  4. SCOTUS STOPS CALIFORNIA FROM SECRETLY TRANSGENDERING YOUR KIDS – The Supreme Court struck down a California policy that essentially allowed schools to secretly transition your children to a different “gender” without your consent. The ruling was 6-3, which means 3 supreme court justices are fundamentally unfit to serve, and probably have suspicious material on their laptops.

The non-child-groomer justices determined, “We conclude that the parents who seek religious exemptions are likely to succeed on the merits of their Free Exercise Clause claim. The parents who assert a free exercise claim have sincere religious beliefs about sex and gender, and they feel a religious obligation to raise their children in accordance with those beliefs. The right protected by these precedents includes the right not to be shut out of participation in decisions regarding their children’s mental health.”

  1. ICE IN CHICAGO CAN RESUME AFTER APPEALS COURT RULING – A three-judge panel of the 7th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals ruled 2-1 that a district court injunction ending President Trump’s ICE deportation operations in Chicago was “overbroad” and “constitutionally suspect.” The ruling clears the way for ICE operations to resume in earnest in Chicago.
  2. CHRISTIANS CAN NOW ADOPT IN VERMONT – For a brief season in Vermont, Christians could not adopt children because of the DNC-controlled state’s presupposition that homosexuality and transgenderism are good and should be celebrated, especially in children. If your belief system falls outside of their pedo-enabling orthodoxy, you cannot adopt a child. After all, if they want to explore sex with a person of their same sex, or explore their non-existent gender choices, your beliefs will prevent them from being terrorized by leftist child groomers disguised as public school teachers.

Now, Vermont has been reeled in after a settlement between the state’s child grooming and terrorizing agency, the Department of Children and Families, and Christian couples who sued for the right to adopt children without bending the knee to the left’s child grooming ideology. Now, the DCF’s new guidelines protect Christians from leftist terrorism. It reads “[a]pplicants’ sincerely held personal, cultural, religious, moral, or philosophical beliefs shall not be considered in the licensing process.”

  1. AS THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC FALLS, CHINA’S MIDDLE EAST STRATEGY DOES TOO – Geopolitical analysts have observed that one of the hardest hit casualties of the fall of Iran’s Islamic Republic regime is America’s main competitor, China. Chairman Xi has spent a decade himself, and billions of dollars, cultivating Middle East relations, largely through its major supporter, Iran.

In addition to that, the failure of Chinese war tech to stop the absolute brutalization of Iran and help it mount an effective counter (so far) will cause its current allies and customers to second-guess both its military tech capabilities and its capacity to protect them from American aggression. China was also hoping on Iran’s continued support of radical militant Islam colonizing western countries continuing, accelerating the decline of the West, rendering it a feckless foe.

  1. DNA COULD HELP SHRINK AI DATABASES MASSIVELY – Researchers at the University of Missouri claim to have solved the problem of converting computer data into DNA and then switching back to computer data. If the process can be perfected, the size of databases required for AI Machines like Grok could be 10-100 times smaller than they currently are.
  2. DNC BID TO END IRAN WAR DIES IN SENATE – The Senate voted 53-47 against a resolution which would direct President Trump to withdraw troops from Iran. The one lone GOP Senator to vote for the bill was Rand Paul (R-KY), who was also a co-sponsor. Senator John Fetterman (D-PA) was the lone Democrat to vote against the resolution.
  3. NY’S SOLO GOP SEAT SURVIVES, THANKS TO SCOTUS – The U.S. Supreme Court has stopped Progmerican-controlled New York state from disappearing a republican district through gerrymandering before the 2026 election. The decision does not rule out a future evaporation of the sole GOP-held district, but the ruling prevents it from disappearing before the midterm election. The decision was 6-3.
  4. PARENTS GET PAID FOR RESISTING STATE SCHOOL LGBTQ INDOCTRINATION FOR THEIR CHILDREN – Parents of Montgomery County Schools in Maryland received a $1.5 million settlement after their children were forced to read homosexual and transgender evangelistic promotion material. U.S. District Judge Deborah Boardman issued a financial judgment on February 19, requiring the school system to pay the affected parents.
  5. DAN CRENSHAW, DNC SLEEPER, LOSES IN GOP PRIMARY – Dan Crenshaw, the U.S. representative from Texas, lost his GOP primary race to challenger Texas State representative Steve Toth. Crenshaw is famous for voting against the Trump agenda at critical times. He represents the Eric Erickson branch of the “conservatives.” These are the DNC sleepers whose jobs are to muck up the resistance to the DNC by undermining it with strategic “objections.” Crenshaw lost 58 to 40.
  6. 5TH CIRCUIT APPROVES TEN COMMANDMENTS IN CLASSROOM – The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit has struck down a challenge to Louisianna’s law requiring the 10 Commandments to be posted in all public school classrooms. The court ruled that the plaintiffs in the case lack standing to bring suit. The court held, “There can be no doubt that the Ten Commandments bear immense religious significance. For believing Jews and Christians’ they are ‘the word of God handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai.’ But they also ‘have historical significance as one of the foundations of our legal system.’ That dual character forecloses any categorical rule against their display on public property. Instead, constitutionality turns on ‘the context of the display’ and ‘how the text is used.’”

They added, “Simply put, we cannot evaluate ‘how the text is used,’ because we do not yet know—and cannot yet know—how the text will be used. And ‘[i]n the absence of this evidence, we are not able to conduct the fact-intensive and context-specific analysis required by’ the Supreme Court’s Ten Commandments cases.”

  1. DOJ CLOSES BIDEN AUTOPEN INVESTIGATION, SOURCE CLAIMS – After another round of much sound and fury signaling nothing, the GOP’s Department of Justice has allegedly quietly shut down its Biden autopen investigation in much the same way it has tried to bury the Epstein Files investigation. The claim comes from the Washington Examiner, which cites an anonymous source. The Department of Justice has refused to comment when asked by the press about the claim.

  1. TRUMP SIGNALS THE NEXT LEADER OF IRAN WILL BE TRUMP-APPROVED – The war plan by the U.S. and Israel to annihilate Iran’s effective military power seems to be ahead of schedule, with the navy already largely destroyed and its missile capacity reduced by more than 80%. The plan is going so well, talk of the regime’s replacements have already gotten serious.

President Donald Trump has signaled that any peace with Iran will have to include the President being able to approve of the leader the next regime selects to lead it. President Trump told the press, “They are wasting their time. Khamenei’s son is a lightweight. I have to be involved in the appointment, like with Delcy [Rodriguez] in Venezuela. Khamenei’s son is unacceptable to me. We want someone that will bring harmony and peace to Iran… Most of the people we had in mind are dead.”

  1. KRISTI NOEM FIRED – Kristi Noem received a summary demotion from President Donald Trump a day after a Senate hearing exposed a massive $220 million DHS ad campaign that seemed more about promoting Kristi Noem than DHS. Senator John Kennedy (R-LA) all but accused Noem of lying when she claimed President Trump approved the campaign in advance. Action by President Trump would indicate she did not, indeed, seek prior approval before she ran a pro-Noem campaign using American tax dollars to do it.

Noem will be reassigned as “Special Envoy for the Shield of the Americas,” which President Trump called “our new Security Initiative in the Western Hemisphere.” Trump has chosen Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) to replace him. The Senator is popular with the MAGA base. He is known for his firebrand confrontations with Progmericans during Senate hearings.

  1. THREATENING CORPORATIONS THAT FOLLOW TRUMP’S WISHES MAY HAVE COST NETFLIX THE WARNER BROTHERS PURCHASE – Paramount has been announced as the new future owner of Warner Brothers Discovery. The company’s CEO is a Trump supporter, which makes the staff of CNN very nervous since Warner Brothers Discovery also owns CNN. Netflix was positioned to purchase the property, but public statements by one of their board of directors may have blown the deal for them.

Susan Rice, a long-time Obama-Biden cabinet member, warned that corporations which are willing to take a knee to Trump can expect criminal prosecutions when her party returns to power. Calls for Netflix to nix the political terrorist have fallen on deaf ears, leading to a growing movement to boycott Netflix. President Trump amplified the message, posting “Netflix should fire racist, Trump Deranged Susan Rice, IMMEDIATELY, or pay the consequences.”

  1. CONSEQUENCE OF SCOTUS RULING ALREADY HITTING COURTS AS TRUMP ADMIN PLEDGES IT WILL PAY INTEREST ON TARIFF REFUNDS – Should the Trump administration lose in the courts and be forced to refund “American” businesses, they are committed to pay interest on the refunds, they informed the courts. Judges have already signaled a willingness to fast-track the process, as we predicted would happen in our report on the Tariff ruling on page 2. In addition to the refunds for U.S. companies, foreign companies are also lining up for their cut of the SCOTUS plunder. Revenues collected through these struck-down tariffs are estimated to be around $170 billion.

  1. FBI ADMITS MORE THAN 100 TERABYTES OF EPSTEIN EVIDENCE WERE DELETED – Whatever the DOJ has on hand that it is calling the “Epstein Files,” it is hardly as much as what it could have been. According to a just-now discovered testimony in 2024 by FBI Agent Aaron Spivack, a hack into their NY Field Office during the 2023 Superbowl led to the FBI losing access to more than 500 terabytes of data. 100 Terabytes would turn out to be lost for good.

TEXAS PRIMARY FINISHES CROCKET, KEEPS CORNYN ALIVE – The Texas Senate Primary races were the main feature of Tuesday’s midterm primaries, which were also held in Arkansas, North Carolina, Alabama, and Mississippi. In Texas, DNC race hustler Jasmine Crocket lost to James Talarico, a far-left “Christian” who claims God is non-binary and ok with abortions.

In the GOP race, Senator John Cornyn failed to get a majority vote, so a run-off race between himself and his closest challenger, Attorney General Ken Paxton, will happen in May. Paxton has offered to drop out of the race if Cornyn commits to passing the SAVE Act, even if it means voting to change the filibuster rule to require it to be verbal, not merely procedural.

  1. VENEZUELA BECOMES A DE FACTO U.S. ALLY – The United States and Venezuela have officially restored diplomatic and consular relations that President Trump claims will lead to favorable oil and rare earth mineral deals for the U.S., deals that freeze Russia and China out of the equation. U.S. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said of the agreement, “When we are working together it can only mean two things, which is prosperity for the people of Venezuela and for the citizens of the United States, and it also brings peace and stability for the world.”
  2. ISLAMIST SHOOTER KILLS 3, INJURES 17 IN TERROR ATTACK ON AUSTIN, TX BAR – 53-year-old Islamist Ndiaga Diagne opened fire on an Austin, Texas bar, killing 3 and injuring 17 others before being killed himself by the police. He was wearing a “Property of Allah” shirt and has connections to a local Islamist community with suspicious ties to Islamist terrorist organizations. The attack came just after the Ayatollah Khomeini was confirmed killed in aerial strikes, leading many to believe this was related to the war on Iran.

  1. WALZ CAUGHT LYING THAT JUDGE ORDERED HIM TO RESTART FRAUDULENT “CHARITY” – In an exchange with U.S. House Judiciary Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH), Governor Tim Walz (D-MIN) was caught lying about a claim he restarted the fraudulent “Feeding our Future” charity because a judge ordered him to. When confronted with the Judge’s statement refuting the claim, Walz changed his testimony, claiming he merely took the advice of his counsel, who told him the Judge ordered the funding to restart.

The key exchange came when Jordan asked if the Judge was lying, or his counsel was lying. To that question, he responded, “I can’t tell you!” Pressed further, he claimed, “I just know what the attorneys said.”

  1. VA ATTORNEY GOT LETTER WARNING HIM ILLEGAL HE WAS ABOUT TO RELEASE WOULD KILL AGAIN, AND HE DID – Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney Steve Descano chose to release an illegal immigrant, Abdul Jalloh, despite being warned directly that if he did so, someone WOULD be killed. Jalloh then allegedly murdered Stephanie Minter at a bus stop, stabbing her to death, a murder that, again, the police directly warned Descano would happen if he let him go. Independent Virginia reporter Nick Monock obtained an email copy of the letter the police sent to Descano.

Monock offered this commentary in response to the email, “… the police were warning the prosecutor’s office that if this guy was released back into the community again something like this could happen. The murder of Stephanie Minter. And it did. Mr. Jalloh has more than 40 past charges, and almost every case, Descano’s office dropped those charges and released this illegal immigrant, violent offender, back into the community. And they had a warning from the police department.”

  1. SCOTUS STOPS HIGHER COURTS FROM CONTINUING CASES SETTLED BY IMMIGRATION JUDGES – The Supreme Court ruled unanimously that higher courts must stop ruling on immigration cases that have been adjudicated by Immigration Judges in asylum cases. Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote the ruling, stating, “the agency’s determination whether a given set of undisputed facts rises to the level of persecution under §1101(a)(42)(A) is generally ‘conclusive unless any reasonable adjudicator would be compelled to conclude to the contrary.’”

The ruling puts a significant limit on district courts, especially, which have been interfering with an inordinate number of asylum cases. Many of these judges are from the batch of judges the GOP lazily allowed to be approved during the last weeks of the Biden administration.

  1. DNC MAYOR STAYS IN OFFICE AFTER FIANCÉ CONVICTED OF BEING CCP SPY – The Mayor of Arcadia, CA is a naturalized U.S. citizen from China, whose fiancé was recently convicted of being a CCP spy. The fiancé, a green card holder named Yaoning “Mike” Sun, was the fiancé of Mayor Eileen Wang, a Democrat and potentially STILL a member of the CCP. She emigrated from China more than 30 years ago.

So far, Wang has refused to resign. This type of CCP activity is only a small part of the rising evidence of widespread CCP influence across both political parties, but significantly more substantively among Democrats, their natural “allies.”

  1. COPS WHO STOPPED AUSTIN ISLAMIST SHOOTER NOW FACE GRAND JURY AS A THANK YOU – The three hero cops who prevented the Muslim terrorist in the Austin shooting from killing more people than he did are now facing a Grand Jury investigation. The Travis County DA is known for using a Grand Jury process he created that requires every officer-involved shooting to go before a Grand Jury even when the shooting is deemed justified, as it was in this case.

The policy itself was allegedly pushed by a special interest group called the Wren Collective, which has ties to far left, and pro-Islamist organizations. The key part of the Grand Jury is that the jury only gets to see the prosecutor’s unchallenged evidence. The prosecutor is also not required to present exculpatory evidence.

  1. CANADA APPROACHES 100K EUTHANIZED, WHILE THE POOR ARE NOW ELIGIBLE FOR MAID, AND CHILDREN MIGHT SOON BE – Amir Farsoud, 54, is being guided towards state-assisted suicide through Canada’s MAiD. While he suffers from chronic back pain, his reason for applying for MAiD was because he can no longer work, and Canada does not give him enough money to avoid becoming homeless. He’d rather die than become homeless, and now, in Canada, you can legally be killed for that fear alone.

So far, almost 100,000 Canadians have been murdered (aborted) by the state, legally, according to a report by the Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying. That same group is now recommending “mature minors” be allowed to consent to suicide as well.

  1. RING’S SEARCH PARTY IS A POLICE STATE TROJAN HORSE – Amazon’s Ring Camera has added a Search Party feature critics say enables Amazon to build a pre-crime database that the state (or the corporation) could use to quickly tamp down dissent. An email from Ring Founder Jamie Simonoff is giving credence to those concerns.

He wrote, “I believe that the foundation we created with Search Party, first for finding dogs, will end up becoming one of the most important pieces of tech and innovation to truly unlock the impact of our mission. You can now see a future where we are able to zero out crime in neighborhoods. So many things to do to get there, but for the first time ever, we have the chance to fully complete what we started.”

During the service, they praised the Ayatollah’s martyrdom and called America “devil worshipers” on “stolen land.” The language was incendiary and insurrectionist in nature.

  1. PLANNED PARENTHOOD’S SEX EDUCATION PROGRAM IS A MARKETING PLAN TARGETING THE RAINBOW – Planned Parenthood is running a “sex education program for teens between the ages of 14 and 19 in the LBTQ and gender-bending spectrum. The program’s stated goal is this, “IN·clued will address health disparities affecting LGBTQ+ youth, who are disproportionately impacted by unintended pregnancies.” The program both encourages sexual expression and encourages abortion as a solution to “unintended pregnancies.” It is, in effect, a marketing program to find new customers in “un-serviced” markets.

INTRODUCTION

We are nearing the end of our first winter with our Hope Exit Castle, Riqueday. While we have been delayed in our direct work on the Castle, we have been working in other ways to prepare ourselves for our castle stewardship. We haven’t allowed our “downtime” to become total downtime.

Much of that downtime has been spent learning new skills to be better prepared for the Castle Work ahead. Along the way, a new challenge has emerged, one that expands our project, by necessity.

  1. THE FIRST WINTER

So far, we have found ourselves facing unexpected adversities, from health to weather, and those adversities keep happening. Yet we have faith we are walking in the path we should be, and our mission continues with as much fire (if not more) as we began this project with.

Economically, we are in better standing, so we have more resources right now we can bring into our project.

The weather this past month has been unforgiving. If you remember from our last installment, some of our water pipes (specifically to our steam heat registers) have frozen, and some pipes have become disconnected from the steam heat registers as well.

We have yet to experience sustained temperatures above freezing for more than a few hours, so our opportunity to thaw out the pipes and repair them as we discover problems hasn’t happened yet. We expect by next month to have been able to thaw out our pipes and finally get a full assessment of the damages we have to repair.

Our handyman, Anthony, has his own health issues, and it looks like we might lose him for a couple of months at least. This puts more urgency on myself and my wife to do what must be done so we can stay at the Castle, minimally, at least one week a month, but ideally we will quickly extend that to two weeks a month.

In order for my wife and I to get there, we NEED a shower installed and a laundry hookup to install a washer and dryer. We are good for our kitchen needs. We also have two bathrooms.

What we are hoping for is to get a bathroom/shower installed in what will be our second floor living quarters, which consists of two large rooms, the first would be our bedroom and the second is large enough to have a small bathroom installed in it.

As SOON as we can get the Castle thawed out, our next move is to find a service provider to give us an estimate on installing the bathroom/shower/laundry hookup, then we will be making that our top priority. Our hope is to have a new bathroom/shower installed by the end of May.

Until then, we plan on staying at brother Bill’s house at night while we work on the Castle in the daytime. This we hope to start by mid-March. Hopefully, we will have updates and maybe some new pictures to provide for you.

  1. TRAINING FOR CASTLE STEWARDSHIP

Every single one of us involved in this project is pursuing an understanding of what we assume will be called the AI revolution. We are sure AI will be a major part of our venture, both in our commercial pursuits (which includes MIA) and our social service pursuits.

This might seem unrelated, but we assume AI tools will be a major part of our planning, designing, and building going into the future. AI augments intelligence in planning and design for humans, and we most assuredly need that assistance.

Our first goal is to assess how much AI capacity we can build for ourselves. We believe our level of potential AI stewardship is at the AI agent level, so we will be developing our own AI agents as we learn how to do it.

In order to build and sustain our projects, we must have revenue. We have multiple streams of income, but they’re hardly maximally run. To that end, my wife, Jena, is learning more about financial investments so we can develop better strategies that might yield better dividend returns.

She also hopes to use those skills to help residents in need manage their basic finances. AI will also aid us in this pursuit.

We are all busy learning home improvement skills so we can do as much of the work ourselves as possible. While some members of our informal team have home improvement skills, none of them are our core members who will realistically have the most time to work on the castle (myself, my wife, my brother, my daughter, and our Anglican Priest).

Fortunately, my mother has a lot of knowledge in this area, and we hope to have her teach us as we work. She’s not as physically able as she was, but she only needs to show us a few times so we can then do the rest ourselves.

What I know of our castle is this; it needs to be filled with humans, it needs to fulfill its designed mission, to serve the community around it. In order for us to do that, we have to restore and fulfill its bones within.

  1. A NEW CHALLENGE

My mother currently lives in Harrisburg, PA, which is about 90 minutes from where I live. She lives about 2 hours from where my brother lives. Her health has been deteriorating. It is getting increasingly risky leaving her alone so, by necessity, we will have to create opportunities for our mother to be with us.

As it so happens, she owns what could be a 4-unit apartment building, a sizeable land lot, and multiple garages. In short, she has the bones of a Hope Exit Castle. Her home happens to be located about 90 minutes from Washington, D.C., a town my brother needs to visit to rouse up new business for our commercial projects (which are designed to provide for ourselves and our Hope Exit Castle project).

Bill will be the primary point for Harrisburg and will have an apartment for himself. This will enable him to stay with our mother for significant periods of time, and it will also make it easier for him to make a day run into DC to meet with a potential new client.

My wife and I will be spending some time there as well. We will also have our mother stay up at Bill’s for periods of time so she can help us with the Riqueday Castle (which she has been chomping at the bit to do).

  1. OUR SHORT-TERM GOALS

Our plan for Riqueday is to get back to cleaning the castle and fixing, painting, plastering whatever we can as we go. We hope, by summer, to be able to do serious work on the basement, starting with installing a new floor (which will be done in sections).

We hope to finish our thorough cleaning of the Castle, install a bathroom/shower in our living quarters, a laundry hook-up in the basement, complete our plaster repairs, and install a new floor in the basement. Once we get to this point, we can start serving the community.

Our Harrisburg project has been somewhat thrust upon us, happily, by need, so we haven’t yet built any short-term goals for this project outside of getting the apartment ready for Bill to use. Every challenge is an opportunity in the Kingdom of God.

We have not officially named our Hope Exit Castle in Harrisburg. We’ll let you know as soon as we do.

  1. PERSONAL NOTES

Healthwise, my wife and I were recently hit with Covid-19. We are more or less recovered, though both of us are still dealing with lingering bronchitis. My wife is still recovering her smell and taste senses which she lost almost as soon as she got sick.

Yet, we are both STILL much better than we were last year, so we are encouraged, believing we will have the health we need to do the work we hope to have done by summer.

My brother gifted me an e-bike that has a maximum speed of 45mph and a range of 50 miles. I hope to use the e-bike to get to know the beautiful region around us. We are nestled in the midst of mountains and hills, most of which have trails that lead to their tops.

I hope to spend the Spring topping all the mountains and hills around us that I can get to on my e-bike. My wife is not keen on riding an e-bike, otherwise she’d be joining me.

I want to enjoy the region as much as I can so I build into my heuristics the profound motivation I will need to do the hard work we have to do to complete our Hope Exit Castle conversions (in Canton, PA and Harrisburg, PA).

SUMMARY

By our reckoning, God has been sharpening steel these past few months, and He continues to do so. Now we have another challenge placed upon us which we are choosing to view as an opportunity, for my brother and I were born in Harrisburg.

My Mother started a purchase agreement for her property in 1979. She fully owned it by 1985.

About 10 years ago she added an empty lot to her property that became available after an apartment building had been condemned and torn down (one I remember being in on numerous occasions as a young boy). She turned that lot into a garden paradise, with a canopy of living plants she designed and built herself.

Her dream has always been to see her property become a community service provider. Seeing our project, of creating blended private and public space with a Castle Stewardship Family, made her want her property to be something like that as well.

How this will all unfold is unknown to us, though we have plenty of ideas, plenty of dreams. These dreams we will share as they become more realistic and more solidly understood.

We ask our readers who do so to consider praying for us that God opens opportunities for us to more quickly equip our castles to serve the communities they are in. Riqueday Castle and the Harrisburg property (to be named later) are radically different communities. Riqueday Castle is in a small rural town, Canton, which itself is in the middle of almost nowhere.

The Harrisburg property is located within what could be called an urban ghetto by some and a poor urban neighborhood by others. The city itself is the capital of the state of Pennsylvania. As disconnected from the world as Riqueday Castle is, the Harrisburg property is connected.

Fortunately, both my brother and I have grown up in both the rural and urban communities (specifically THIS community, though we lived in others before our mother bought this property). So, we are well equipped both in experience and in heart to serve both communities.

To say we need prayer is an understatement. If we are to succeed, we can tell you we are but a metaphorical 300 facing 30,000 challenges, with ice storms counted among them, so surely when you see us succeed, know that our victory will not have been through our own strength.

Starting out, God will leave little doubt that our “success” will be His.

ED.NOTE: On April 10, 2026, we will be releasing our essay, “Fear of Suffering and Death” to the general public both in digital and print. For our subscribers, you will receive the digital copy free on the same day. This will be included with the release of our first MIA Quarterly.

The suppositions in this essay directly inform our approach to our Hope Exit Castle Project and the way we run MIA.

The essay is an apologetic in defense of an emergent Christian nation and against an official Christian state. It also introduces the analytic tools I utilize to analyze the news, actiune baza (base of action) and apex existentialism (my current working theory for the base of action).

The final draft has been complete. This will be the first edition. I plan on doing more editions, updating and adding to the essay (until it becomes a book) as I develop the concepts further.

A. A TALE OF THREE MILLION EPSTEIN FILES – HOW TO PROTECT BA’AL IN THE OPEN

Our analysis of the Jeffrey Epstein Files release in our February 6 MIA issue was summarized here: The latest attempt by the Trump administration and the DNC to placate the masses without giving too much safe harbor to the enemy has served only to delay the soon-to-be louder voices demanding the real damaging files get released, come what may.

We can’t imagine anyone seriously thought this would put the Epstein Files to bed, and possibly that was never the intended outcome. For as much as we want to know the full truth of the child sex ring designed to blackmail thought leaders in multiple countries, we also understand the black hole mystery that is the Epstein Files.

This black hole mystery can gobble up minds and resources that might otherwise have discovered practical paths to blunt centralized control over human action. This is not to suggest the effort to expose the truth stops, but only that the continuation of this black hole mystery is not completely disadvantageous to the elites.

This is especially true of the elites who continue to be part of the blackmailers’ group, as opposed to the blackmailed leaders’ group. This latter group is the alleged group Clinton, Trump, etc., are in. The blackmailers have every reason for the mystery to continue, and our passion to continue to be absorbed by it, for, even as we speak, they’ve long moved on to their new centers of child sacrifice.

TAKING GUNS AND TONGUES: A BELLWETHER REPORT ON THE TUMBLER RIDGE SHOOTING

In this report, our staff looked at the bellwether event, the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School shooting by an 18-year-old boy presenting as a female. The report focused on how banning guns and speech has done nothing but make the citizens less safe who are now under such conditions.

This summarizes our report: After the guns fell, the tongue followed behind, in all three countries, with Canada and the UK fighting neck-and-neck to be the most Soviet western nation of them all.

Now, here Canadians sit, having been promised security in exchange for freedom but getting none. They sit in a world in which the press and the government must lie about the basic facts of a shooter to protect a special class of people from free tongues, enslaving all, including the special class. That same special class is now desperately dependent on the state to protect them from mean thoughts, a protection they’ve been propagandized to militantly assume is their right).

The “security” through disarming your neighbors’ guns and tongues has made Canada fundamentally less safe than it was before. A madman grew up among them, indulged by the system, protected from reality (you have a mental illness, you’re not a girl), and medically conditioned to be predisposed to even greater psychotic breaks with reality.”

What wasn’t made implicit in this report is that the schools are becoming the most vulnerable to psychotic attacks, as well as the source of the origins of the creation of those same psychotics.

B. FUTUREQ REPORT: PT. 1 – TOWER OF BABEL 2.0 VERSUS THE RIGHT TO BEAR AI

In the February 20, 2026, issue of MIA, we published the first part of our Futureq series, AI. We provided an overview of AI, where it is, and where it might be going, from a sustainably flourishing perspective.

We concluded:

It is the heart of the people that will determine the outcome for humanity as it acquires the super tool AI promises to be. AI will have little to say in the matter, until we let it.

If the social identity, global identity models of governance triumph, humanity will be consumed by its own hubris. It will enter the throne room of God only to be immediately annihilated.

If individual identity with nested national identity wins (and America is the greatest opportunity for this to happen), AI will create great opportunities for sustainable flourishing for most humans.

In our Christian worldview, the final destination might see an AI that leads men to worship Satan and itself. If we are right (and eschatology is an experiment, not certain understanding, lest we imagine we know the exact hour), then a human will come along and lead the people to worship AI, but, in the end, the humans, wicked though they be, will overthrow AI, the symbol of the whore of Babylon overthrown by her own worshipers..  At least that’s the potential.

While that day may be tomorrow, we operate as if it’s not. We operate as if the world to come will give humans opportunity to see what a righteous use of a tool given to us by God can do, and, for a season, maybe lifetimes, we have an opportunity to use this tool to create opportunities from the least to the greatest of us before the darkness overcomes us all, just before Christ’s final return.

The closer we get to the little god Super AI, the closer we get to God’s intervention.

Rather than waiting for the outcomes, we suggest you become part of the solution. You can do this, in part, by learning how to become an AI manager, and in part by joining ventures to build small-scale AI machines firewalled from large-scaled AI machines (if we find that’s possible).

C. TRUMP’S VIETNAM? – THE EPSTEIN FILES AND TRUMP

In this month’s Bellwether Deepdive, we looked at the ongoing ramifications of the release of the Epstein Files.

Our publisher, Bill Collier, observed, “Seeing these emails closed the loop for me on some things that I thought were not as they seemed. I play small ball but sometimes must engage those who play at the top and to whom I am little more than background noise. But even with such a tenuous level of access I see the degradation of leadership and of integrity in our political institutions and I now suspect much worse is yet to be exposed by these Epstein files.

Again, my work often puts me in the room with people from most of the existing factions from time to time. It is not unusual for me to find myself working with a major player out of the blue, and then, after doing our shared thing, never hear from that person again.

The fact Epstein has connections in all the factions and was seen as an asset or vehicle to access by many does not surprise me. He wanted his hands in everything, and his fingers in every pie, and it appears he was the consummate influence peddler for whom such access was not only a drug in and of itself but a shield of protection, probably for decades.

That some of the people I know or knew occasionally, as a background bit player, had some sort of connection to Epstein who was the ultimate access king, is not a shocking surprise in general, but it was still an unsettling surprise. That this is being exposed is the surprise (one I welcome and want more of).”

Despite Bill being able to see a bit behind the curtain in his work, not even he could see the level of deception that was before him. The Epstein Files reveal an ongoing massive disinformation campaign that causes one to believe there is little to no chance we can discern fact from fiction in such a world as this.

To some degree, sadly, that is true, but there is plenty we can discover that reveals true reality in the face of the great simulacrum.

The tool that has created tremendous simulacrum powers has also caused more and more of us to stop trusting things at face value, to look behind the curtain at everything. The same tool that is empowering the simulacrum is also undermining it, and not just indirectly, but directly.

Here are some starting points to begin your journey to learn to use AI as a research tool capable of discovering  a shadow of true reality for you (which might just be the best we can manage, for now).

ED. NOTE: In the beginning of this month, we did a Bellwether DeepDive on the Epstein Files data dump from the Department of Justice. This story is also our Bellwether story of the month. Our Publisher, Bill Collier, did a Bellwether DeepDive on the Epstein Files that challenges the Trump Administration’s current approach to this real scandal and provides a personally-experienced behind-the-curtains view at the backroom reality of the bloody winner-take-all “sport” of American politics. That view might dictate what we might see next in the Epstein Files saga.

In light of the recent  wanna-be Trump assassin’s alleged motivation coming from Trump’s handling of the Epstein Files, this Bellwether Deepdive is even more timely.

An emerging Bellwether story is SCOTUS’ Tariff rulings and the fallout from that. Expect an analysis of that fallout in an upcoming issue of MIA.

INTRODUCTION

Regardless of being guilty of crimes or not, the utter degeneracy of the “ruling class” in the US and the UK as revealed in the “Epstein files” is being exposed.

The depths of the cover-up are not a surprise to me. What is a surprise is how much has been revealed despite what appears to be a continuous effort to block the total truth from seeing the light of day.

If you think YOUR favorite leaders or your Party is innocent and only “they” are guilty, then you are part of the cover-up.

I do not expect justice. I am not sure this will bring anyone down because both sides are at once weaponizing this to take down the OTHERS while claiming virtue for themselves. If the masses on a non-partisan basis were to unite around accountability for all and transparency, then I would say we may see some kind of justice.

As it is, unless someone is easy prey for political gain to take them down by one side or the other, nobody will face justice.

The corruption may even include partisanship on the part of some of these victims who are decrying the current administration without decrying the previous one, aiming their anger only at the Republicans, while refusing to name any names. In other words, even the public known victims are refusing to reveal the truth they know.

If the victims actually drop the politics and just name names, regardless of whose ox gets gored, that could be substantive in regard to getting some justice.

It does appear that a significant portion of Epstein’s friends and co-conspirators in his many schemes (many of which would be considered legal but unethical, outside of the sex stuff) are Democratic party big shots and Uber rich leftists.

But who knows what tomorrow brings in terms of revelations, because Epstein was “smart” and seemed to maintain relationships with people on the right, also, including Steve Bannon, who, full disclosure, I know and have worked for and with, including when he was in the White House. I am not going to dish on Steve (or attempt to defend him), as it is not at all relevant to this mess he seems to be in with the public.

This connection, however, gives me a perspective that is relevant to what I see in the Epstein Files themselves.

A. THE HALLS OF POWER

My intention here is to show you how easy it is to become connected to evil without ever knowing it. It is also to show you, in part, how the most powerful operate, and what those who want some of that power have to do to share in some of that power.

My work in consultation, digital promotions/marketing, and research puts me in the company of MANY such persons as Bannon, who I always got along with. I am not their colleague, I’m not even their “ally.” I am just a bit player and a workhorse to them, nothing or no-one of consequence.

Some of the people I have also known or worked with or for are in those files behaving in ways that were certainly not known to me and, near as I can tell, my name never came up with anyone in an email.

As for Epstein, I would have avoided him like the plague if I had been offered a chance to meet him. I have on many occasions refused to meet with or be introduced to certain people I find detestable. But the nature of my work puts me within the orbit of a lot of people, some of whom turn out to be bad people.

In my own experiences being sort of like a fly on the wall barely being noticed while still needing to be in the room to do my job, I have never been “trusted” enough to be privy to any secret goings on connected to Jeffrey Epstein. In other words, just because I am sometimes “in the room” as an occasional bit player in a drama that has little to do with me, doesn’t mean I know much of anything about these people beyond the project I am working on. This is probably the case of MOST of the people mentioned in the Epstein Files (though this is speculation).

  1. HOW I GOT HERE – A little background about me is necessary here.

I have been engaged this political online work ever since 2008. I did sales, ran a few little local newspapers, became an insurance agent, did market research, was a youth pastor, and even did flea markets up until 2008 when I got back more heavily into politics. It was the rise of Obama and the push for single-payer healthcare that brought me in as an activist.

I became noticed when I worked with my mentor and friend Ralph, running the then largest social conservative activist site, Team Sarah, under the aegis of the Susan B. Anthony list.

After that, I started come into the orbit of such people after being involved in the Dontgo movement and breaking news on Nancy Pelosi’s conspiracies in Texas and California to profit from wind farms and a water scheme, all with T. Boone Pickens.

In the 2008 election cycle the powers that be took notice of me. I was flown places, all expenses covered by the host, to interact and sometimes train activists and citizen journalists. A lot of the people I met back then remain friends and many have risen in the ranks, hence why I know a lot of people, on both sides of the aisle, in politics. At the time, I had absolutely no idea some of the people I was interacting with would prove to an evil most of us find hard to comprehend.

I have seen good and bad. To me, politics was basically High School on steroids, for bigger stakes if you can become a cool kid. Of course, it was much worse, only I didn’t understand that at the time. This should color your understanding of my environment. I have not seen any criminal or ethical violations that would compel me to report someone, beyond doing background vetting (where I have sometimes had to report a crime).

I have played a role in vindicating innocent people and in exposing corruption, often seeing my work used without crediting me, and being thankful for that! I often say, “please don’t publicly acknowledge me, my pay is thanks enough” (publicity would have also impeded my work).

Through this, I want to convey that I have enough insights into the power structures, popping into and out of the presence of key players as a fly on the wall, to be able to say that things are pretty gnarly in our politics, in BOTH parties.

It is only germane because I happen to have engaged personally with some of these people in these files and this gives me a different perspective than the average person. But it would still be the Epstein Files that opened my eyes to the levels of horror that was mercifully concealed from me.

  1. MY CONTEXT IN VIEWING THE EPSTEIN FILES – Seeing these emails closed the loop for me on some things that I thought were not as they seemed. I play small ball but sometimes must engage those who play at the top and to whom I am little more than background noise. But even with such a tenuous level of access I see the degradation of leadership and of integrity in our political institutions and I now suspect much worse is yet to be exposed by these Epstein Files.

Again, my work often puts me in the room with people from most of the existing factions from time to time. It is not unusual for me to find myself working with a major player out of the blue, and then, after doing our shared thing, never hear from that person again.

The fact Epstein has connections in all the factions and was seen as an asset or vehicle to access by many does not surprise me. He wanted his hands in everything, and his fingers in every pie, and it appears he was the consummate influence peddler for whom such access was not only a drug in and of itself but a shield of protection, probably for decades.

That some of the people I know or knew occasionally, as a background bit player, had some sort of connection to Epstein who was the ultimate access king, is not a shocking surprise in general, but it was still an unsettling surprise. That this is being exposed is the surprise (one I welcome and want more of).

  1. STEVEN BANNON – Steve Bannon may be one of those liminal figures. The mentions of him don’t fully condemn him, but they potentially indict him. Regardless of what you think of him, I suspect his engaging with Epstein was simply being at the table with as many people as possible. Epstein was a center of power that almost everyone seemed to be drawn to (if not almost everyone, a significant portion of powerful players).

I strongly doubt there were ever any “sex things” in Bannon’s orbit, though what’s being questioned is how much he tolerated powerful people, like Epstein, that he KNEW were engaging in child sex acts, or “sex things.”

The things Bannon said about Epstein were not good, but ingratiation for access is a common thing, and one may believe with good cause that what Bannon was doing was little more than saying what Epstein wanted to hear to gain access. The question remains, was he gaining access to take him down or gaining access to pull from his power? Unfortunately for Bannon, there is no clear answer for that outside of his denial (which isn’t sufficient in and of itself).

This is not to suggest Bannon was acting in evil, but no evidence clearly exonerates him or indicts him. As I know him personally, it is naturally for me to NOT WANT to believe he was acting in a spirit of enabling evil. I would still be shocked if it were affirmed that he was acting in a spirit of enabling evil rather than deception to get in to destroy Epstein. For now, I assume he was acting with good intentions but reserve the possibility he wasn’t.

One may also come to other conclusions and take every word at face value but having been privy to how the influence and access game is played, I doubt Bannon was communicating truthfully. Nothing in my interactions with him would suggest otherwise, but anecdotal evidence is not objective evidence.

Bannon is a case study of either how merely rising in power in America will get you inadvertently connected to dark forces whether you want to or not, or how men of integrity starting out can make small compromises that end up leading to essentially enabling child rape and murder.

Suspecting the systemic evil in the halls of power causes one to question whether one should ever enter it. I believe, though, good men and women should be compelled to enter it, but not without understanding the cost of engagement, potentially being confronted with a choice between power (and maybe just self-preservation) and defying evil.

B. BEING IN THE EARTH BUT NOT OF IT

Politics is access and influence. If you can access the true shot-callers, you can influence them, and that is the path to becoming a player yourself. It is a game I understand but do not choose to play beyond doing my job and promoting my services on their merit.

If you work in politics long enough you will live to see people you worked with (including people you’ve worked with for years) be exposed for things you were certainly not privy to. This is probably why in all these things I have never ever been investigated for anything related to anyone I have worked with or for who was investigated.

Despite knowing the reality I live in, the nature of the people I deal with (which, when it comes to degeneracy, is rarely detected before the exposure), I, of course, have no intention to stop my work as I can still do GOOD things for the cause of liberty and sometimes even nudge things a bit here and there.

I have always seen my work as sort of trying to slow the flood so the people can get to safety. At the same time, I preach self-sufficiency and self-reliance with local family and friends and independence from the influence and control of the existing power structures as much as possible.

The truth may never be known by any of us, unless and until we all agree to drop the weaponizing of this mess to game elections and advance our party or our team. There are good and bad people in this system, but we must seek the exposure of the bad people no matter who they are or how much our side might be hurt if they are exposed.

When I do candidate and client vetting, I often say that if I find a crime or severely unethical things and must report them by law, I will not hesitate, so “before I hit the big red button and start vetting you, do you want to reconsider?”

A few have had to change their plans after I discovered something unethical but not illegal, but at least once legal action followed.

I’ll probably be doing research projects for the midterms, including vetting and opposition or corporate research projects. I believe if in 2007 I had been asked to vet or do opposition or corporate research on Epstein, I would probably have found enough to justify an investigation. I have found things that have sunk major candidates, which I cannot disclose. This fact alone causes me pause when I learn of the depth of the relations had with men and women who regularly investigate potential allies and enemies.

Because I understand the political game of influence and access, I can find the connections people don’t want found. So, it seems to me that Epstein and his orbiters were never seriously looked into by anyone like me and/or things were suppressed and covered up, things that might have alerted someone to investigate them for crimes.

Epstein could not have operated his access influence schemes, which enabled the deeper sex crimes against women and children, WITHOUT some form of protection from on high.

Against this backdrop, knowing what I knew, Donald Trump has more than once suggested the Epstein Files were nothing but a hoax, but I can clearly see now the systemic abuse and coverup that occurred thanks to BOTH political parties (let the historians determine which party enabled and protected Epstein the both).

C. DONALD TRUMP’S VIETNAM?

The Epstein Files are becoming an albatross about President Trump’s neck in the same way that the War in Vietnam became a cancer on Lyndon Johnson’s Presidency. Johnson never made it out of the Presidential primary.

Right now, the Trump administration has, to put it mildly, royally screwed the pooch on this whole thing, which is becoming a debacle and is tainting Trump’s reputation for “draining the swamp.” No prosecutions, arrests, or justice, have come, despite Kash Patel’s early promise. At this point, this has become, to many, a slap in the face. Whether or not the base will become demoralized or even turn on Trump in the polls remains to be seen, but it is an increasing possibility.

Were the left not so committed to an anti-American ethos (that places the social status of the individual above the individual’s own meritorious claims), this could have been an issue that united us. I know amongst Republicans and conservatives there is growing discontent and anger over the failure to bring the perpetrators to justice.

Claims President Trump partook directly in the evil have minimal credibility, but not none. Still, the most “credible claims” seem to be unsubstantiated anonymous claims coming from an FBI tipline. That tipline was filled with many wild, unsubstantiated accusations not just against Trump but others as well.

But this isn’t, for now, about the right’s suspicion Trump is guilty of partaking in the evil, it’s about the right’s suspicion Trump believes he must protect evil to protect American stability.

Trump should shift gears and go whole hog on this to expose whoever has dirty hands at any level, but especially to imprison those who trafficked in or utilized sex slaves, including adults but especially children, or who murdered and consumed them, as this was the alleged the fate of some of the victims.

If Trump wants to drain the swamp, now is the time; this is the smoking gun needed, and the fact he both views this as a distraction and a hoax and that his people, Bondi and Patel, continue to try to minimize exposure and redact names and details, is not helpful to the country.

Trump can do this without putting the brakes on anything else he is trying the accomplish. But Trump’s only strategy is to gain a position where success is totally guaranteed before he acts, as with Iran so with this. He is risk averse at times, especially when he may suffer loss. This delayed response and his inability to use every tool available to him comes from wanting to be almost 100% certain of success before acting. This the charitable take. The uncharitable take is he’d rather protect evil than risk destroying America’s international reputation.

Trump’s supporters may be forgiven if after years of lawfare against him they have grace over his hesitation in this matter but the time for grace is gone, in my opinion, because too much evil is being covered up.

PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS

Spiritually speaking, I see this as a warning and an opportunity. It is an opportunity to unite as one People to demand justice and to want to expose all corruption and punish or at least shun and shame the bad people. It is a warning that God will punish the land for protecting such evil because the blood of the innocent cries out to Him for justice.

I am leaning toward the latter. Trump’s base will probably stick with him and downplay things as he has, and insist he is still going to drain the swamp. The left will downplay any democrats involved while taking the slightest hint or most outlandish false accusation to engage in lawfare and insist all republicans are pedophiles and all democrats are saints. I suspect the right will do the same to the left as well.

Indeed, the behavior of the latter informs the behavior of the former! Republicans know the courts will drop the hammer on any republicans without proof and likewise protect the democrats and even refuse to allow them to be prosecuted, which is established as fact in my mind. Just look at the corruption of the courts trying to protect gang members from deportation or the bad injunctions and insane ramblings of leftist and uniparty judges.

For Trump to fully engage in exposure and prosecution entails great risk. If a democrat is exposed, the courts will most likely protect them (but not always). If a false accusation is used by some DA to nail a republican, the courts will go most likely along with the lawfare.

As a Christian I have faith in God, in His justice, and so I would take that risk and do all I could to expose everything on everyone, regardless of party, and appeal to the American people when the courts engage in one-sided lawfare against republicans and protection of democrats. I would do what is right and make my appeal to Heaven for justice, because God is going to act against uneven scales of justice only if the right thing is done in the first place.

If Trump does not take the risk and do the right thing, going whole hog against those who were part of Epstein’s grand conspiracy, then God will judge this land for protecting evil and to avenge the innocent. If Trump goes whole hog this will be an invitation and appeal to heaven for justice and God will act to avenge the innocent without judging the whole land.

It is that simple for me. I have been close enough to the “beast” to know it’s real. I will NOT be gaslight into believing otherwise. The Vietnam War is immoral, and it is lost. Face the facts. Surrender. Release the Epstein Files, unredacted where it protects the perpetrators. This is the same as saying “bring our boys home.”

BREAKING: President Trump selects a replacement for the Federal Reserve Chair. Kevin Warsh has been nominated to replace Jerome Powell.

A last-minute deal to avert government shutdown has allegedly been made, but some corporate news outlets are reporting the deal is not certain. Part of the deal involves getting the SAVE Act passed (which would require photo ID and proof of U.S. citizenship for people to be able to vote). Be sure to read next week’s issue for a follow-up on these two breaking news stories.

  1. DAVOS MARKS OFFICIAL DEATH OF POST-WAR ORDER – President Donald Trump came to Davos and delivered the news that the global order was dead. While much hand wringing conspired amongst Europe’s elites, and America’s Democrats (including Gavin Newsome), at the end of the day all had to acknowledge the reality of power. If America says the global order is dead, it’s dead.

Trump let the Western Hemisphere know, “The USA is the economic engine of the planet, and when America booms, the entire world booms. History shows that when America goes bad, the whole world goes bad. When we go down, you follow us down. Instead of hiring bureaucrats we’re firing them”

  1. INSURRECTIONISTS USE SIGNAL CONNECTED TO MINNESOTA OFFICIALS TO COORDINATE ASSAULT ON ICE AGENTS – Signal Chats have been exposed from paid insurrectionists that have been coordinating with Minnesota state officials. The insurrectionists have been intentionally interfering with the legal prosecution of criminal arrests that have been ruled constitutional by the Supreme Court of the United States of America.

Now, Minnesota’s Attorney General has been directly connected to the chat. His office created a secret portal for the insurrectionists to use to coordinate their attacks and get information that was used to attack American independent reporters like Cam Higby. It should be noted the activity began shortly after the Somali Fraud scam was exposed by another independent journalist stalked with the help of Ellison’s secret web portal, Nick Shirley.

  1. XI PURGES TOP GENERALS, NARROWLY ESCAPES ASSASSINATION? – There appears to be a power struggle going on China, with many conflicting reports, some confirmed, some not, all of which suggest Chairman Xi has narrowly escaped a coup, but that the threat of attack is still pressing. This news comes as Canada’s Prime Minister, Mark Carney, has just arrived in Beijing. We can affirm the purge of most of the top Generals, including his two top Generals, and military lockdowns in Beijing.

One unsubstantiated story claims there was a shootout between his chief rival Zhang Youxia’s men and his men that narrowly missed assassinating Xi. Nine of Xi’s men were killed with scores of Youxia’s men were said to have been killed. So far, we still can’t confirm the story, though the mere fact it is circulating suggests the coup is still going on.

  1. TIKTOK DEAL OFFICIALLY CLOSES, AND THE CCP WILL BE HAPPY – The TikTok deal has officially closed, with a “mostly American” investor group mutually led by Oracle and Silber Lake. ByteDance will still have a 20% stake, meaning TikTok will help fund the CCP. The venture will be led by a board that will have a majority of U.S. directors on it.
  2. FORMER CDC DIRECTOR CLAIMS BIDEN, FAUCI SUPPRESSED INFORMATION PROTECTING CCP’S TIES TO COVID-19 – Former Centers for Disease Control Director Robert Redfield made some startling claims in a presentation at a Heritage Foundation Event. At the event, he claimed the Biden administration decided early on that Covid-19 was not a CCP-engineered virus (which it appears now that it was) and systematically suppressed data and removed scientists who even considered a “gain of function” culprit behind Covid-19.

Redfield confirmed a testimony from Representative Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R-IA), who claimed the Biden administration treated science as “consensus” rather than hypothesis. Miller-Meeks claims the “experts” the administration sent to their committees to testify demonstrated no basic understanding of the scientific process. Redfield added, “I was just shocked by the lack of scientific knowledge about this kind of pandemic. Very rapidly, there became a narrative that you either bought into or you were discarded.”

  1. CALLS INCREASE FOR TRUMP TO INVOKE INSURRECTION ACT TO SHUT DOWN DNC’S WAR ON ICE – Americans are growing increasingly frustrated with the lack of a strong response by President Donald Trump against what are increasingly blatant acts of treason by DNC officials, including from Minnesota’s top elected Democrat leaders (from the Governor to the Attorney General), along with the media’s increasing use of obvious lies to intentionally incite violence against ICE agents.

Yet even as these calls mount, along with calls for the President to ignore rogue Judges’ rulings like Andrew Jackson did, JD Vance is claiming the Insurrection Act is not needed. When asked by reporters about the chaos in Minnesota, he seemed to suggest it’s just a matter of all the officials, from Federal to local, getting on the same page. He said of the Insurrection Act being invoked, “Right now, we don’t think we need that.”

  1. MINNESOTA CHURCH TERRORIZED BY DNC INSURRECTIONISTS, JUDGE REFUSES TO PROSECUTE – Insurrectionist Activists led by DNC agitator Don Lemon interrupted and terrorized a church service at the Southern Baptist Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota. The agitators terrorized children and interrupted the Pastor during his service. DNC operatives, from the media to elected officials, applauded the actions, likening it to Jesus turning over the tables in the temple, an antichrist connection if ever there was one.

Now, a Federal Judge who happens to be married to one of Minnesota AG Keith Ellison’s staff is refusing to sign a criminal complaint to get Don Lemon arrested. The DOJ, so far, has only expressed frustrations, but once again those frustrations are followed with little to no real action, continuing to embolden the insurrectionists.

  1. VENEZUELAN LEADER PLUCKED FROM CHINA’S PROTECTION – Despite the security provided President Nicolas Maduro of Venezuela by his two strongest allies, Russia and China, U.S. forces were able to quickly enter the country and within less than 3 hours return with Maduro and his wife to the U.S. Reports of advanced military tech being used to easily overcome Venezuelan forces equipped in mid-range Chinese and Russian military tech have now largely been confirmed by the Trump administration.

The move sends a powerful message to China and Russia’s allies that their protection might be no protection at all. Currently, Maduro is facing “evolving charges.” His VP has taken over and, as of now, appears to be willing to cooperate with the U.S. The role of Exxon in developing the oil earmarked for America (for resale on the market) is in doubt after the CEO went afoul of President Trump.

  1. STARMER’S UK INVITES CHINA’S MEGA EMBASSY TO LONDON WHILE DELAYING LOCAL ELECTIONS – The Chinese government was allowed to purchase the Royal Mint Court site to build a mega-embassy on it in the heat of London, the capital of Britain. The Chinese government purchased that site in 2018 under a “conservative” government’s watch, with Theresa May serving as the Prime Minister.

Now, the Labour government under Prime Minister Kier Starmer has officially approved the mega-embassy, making a definitive statement about the political direction the Soviet UK is headed towards. This follows Starmer’s ongoing efforts to delay May’s local elections, a move that can now be challenged after a recent High Court ruling.

  1. TRUMP’S BOARD OF PEACE LOOKS TO USURP UNITED NATIONS – A United Nations initiative designed to give administrative flesh to President Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan is feared to become its replacement. What `started as a board of invested actors to help manage the transition in Gaza from Hamas to something else is now taking on a global scope as mission creep has taken hold at an ecumenical scale. Trump said of the board that it would “get a lot of work done that the UN should have done.”

Maya Ungar, a UN analyst, is sounding the alarm, claiming, “If member states, if countries do decide to sign up – and not just to sign up, but to really institutionalise and move along with this Board of Peace process – it is going to become a parallel or competing structure to the UN Security Council, which is an institution that has already been facing immense legitimacy as well as financial concerns over the past few years.”

  1. UKRAINE CEASEFIRE DEAL IS OFFICIALLY DEAD – Any hope of the war in Ukraine ending anytime soon has all-but ended with Russia’s final response to the U.S.-led ceasefire proposal. The final sticking point was over the “security guarantees” in the form of U.S. and European troop support. Putin called this nothing more than “foreign intervention.” To emphasize their point, the Russians also now claim that the push by British and European nations to build more military infrastructure in Ukraine will make their troops viable targets.

  2. SOMALI FRAUD CASE TAKES OUT KAIN, THREATENS OMAR – The growing Somali Fraud scandal has already triggered Tim Kain, the Progmerican governor of Minnesota, to declare he is not running for re-election. It also appears to be threatening Minnesota’s Islamist anti-Americanist Progmerican representative, Ilhan Omar. Nick Sherley, an independent reporter, broke the story of hundreds of millions, if not billions, of U.S. tax dollars being stolen through fake daycare centers run by Somalis. The discovery has set off investigations by independent reporters in other states leading to similar discoveries.

Ilhan Omar’s recent effort to earmark $1 million for an ISIS-linked Somali ‘Non-Profit’ has triggered a call to investigate the organization and Omar’s connections to it. Trump has responded by suspending Somali immigration and revoking the legal status of thousands of Somali “asylum seekers.” More action is being taken to strip new Somali naturalized citizens involved in the fraud, which includes Ilhan Omar.

ED.NOTE: It is shortly after this exposure that the Minnesota ICE Wars began.

  1. AS TRUMP KEEPS PUSHING FOR GREENLAND PURCHASE, THE REASON WHY HAS BEEN REVEALED – President Donald Trump revealed his motivation for wanting America to purchase Greenland. He claimed NATO is not an effective deterrent to Russian and Chinese power and therefore America must secure the territory that makes them vulnerable with or without anyone else’s consent (despite Europe moving token numbers of troops to Greenland).

He stated, “Militarily, without the vast power of the United States, much of which I built during my first term, and am now bringing to a new and even higher level, NATO would not be an effective force or deterrent — Not even close! They know that, and so do I.”

  1. TRUMP’S GREENLAND DEAL GIVES AMERICA AND DENMARK WHAT THEY WANT – The announced, but not finalized, Greenland Deal by President Trump will see America spend zero dollars to get full mineral rights, access to build military bases wherever they want, and a prohibition against allowing any Russian or Chinese presence. Denmark gets their sovereignty returned, but in exchange they will continue to pay their citizens $600 million a year to stay there.

The deal comes amidst apoplexy from the European right, who feared his rhetoric would leave them to choose between Europe’s sovereignty and Trump, a fear that should be put to rest if the deal is finalized. President Trump claimed, “IT’S OFFICIAL: President Trump’s Greenland deal is FREE for the USA! Everything we want, $0 — just the Golden Dome cost. I’m not paying a thing. We’re getting TOTAL access to Greenland!”

ED.NOTE: As of January 30, 2026, the deal is still not finalized.

C. U.S. POLITICS

  1. 2020 ELECTION RESULTS STILL IN DOUBT AS FBI SEIZES FULTON COUNTY, GA BALLOTS – The FBI has announced a raid on the Fulton County, Georgia elections office that resulted in 700 boxes of election ballots from the disputed 2020 election being seized. National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard was seen on site, with the speculation being she was overseeing the investigation. The agents were there for hours, triggering a meltdown from Georgia election officials (who, for some reason, really don’t want Americans to see these ballot records).
  2. AFTER VOTING FOR POLITICAL VIOLENCE, VIRGINIANS ARE ABOUT TO GET IT, AND TAX INCREASES ARE ONLY THE BEGINNING – After Virginians chose to overwhelming elect a Governor who endorsed political violence through silence and a Lieutenant Governor who openly expressed it by wishing he could murder his political opponent’s family, the DNC is about to reward them with a slate of bills and executive orders that will tax them, free criminals, including rapists and child molesters, secure fraudulent elections, silence free speech, allow abortion up to birth, and kill the 2nd amendment.

  1. CLINTONS REFERRED FOR CONTEMPT CHARGES AFTER REFUSING TO TESTIFY AT EPSTEIN HEARING – Long-time friends with Jeffrey Epstein, Bill and Hillary Clinton show up in the Epstein files numerous times, with Bill showing up even more than Hillary. After refusing to come before the House Oversight Committee for questioning, both Clintons have been referred to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution.

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) said, “We’re going to hold both Clintons in criminal contempt of Congress. The [Epstein estate] complied with our lawful subpoena. [Former Attorney General Bill Barr and former Trump Labor Secretary Alex Acosta] came in and were deposed because of our lawful subpoenas. This same lawful subpoena was issued to the Clintons, and they defied it.”

  1. AS WALLS CLOSE IN ON OMAR, SHE GETS ASSAULTED BY JUICE – Ilhan Omar was giving a speech at Minneapolis when a white man in his 50s approached her and doused her with juice. While the incident was called fake by some, including President Trump, there has been no clear evidence so far to confirm that accusation. The attack comes as news was breaking of a fraud investigation targeting the congresswoman.

A business partly owned by Omar and her husband is a winery in California that appears to have no infrastructure yet her husband’s stake in the company went from $15k last year to $1-5 million in only one year. Omar’s worth has ballooned from near zero when she took office to over $6 million (or more) today. Her finances are being investigated by the U.S. House Oversight Committee under James Comer (R-KY).

  1. MARXIST ISLAM TAKES OVER IN NEW YORK – In the person of Zohran Mamdani, New York City is now captured by the Marxist-Islamist faction. The now-serving Mayor of New York has begun his tenure by appointing a Marxist, a self-appointed Democratic Socialist, to head the city’s Housing Department. Cea Weaver appears set to test the bounds of state authority over Federal authority, especially when it comes to how she is pledging to treat NY’s privately-owned housing.

The appointment is particularly concerning because Mamdani has pledged to freeze rents, expand the power of enforcement hearings, and bring in communist activists as bureaucrats to use lawfare to seize private property and convert it to communist property.

  1. AFTER JD VANCE HOUSE SHOOTING, SECRET SERVICE AGENT BETRAYS JD VANCE’S SAFETY IN UNDERCOVER VIDEO – An undercover video from an ACTUAL muckraker (and we mean that in the best sense), James O’Keefe, is exposing a secret service agent who is more than willing to put Vice President JD Vance’s life at risk. This comes shortly after a trans DNC activist shot into JD Vance’s home when he and his family were not there.

The agent shared the Vice President’s future traveling and event plans in an undercover video by The O’Keefe Media Group. The agent is Tomas Escotto, a five-year veteran of the force who came in under the President Joe Biden Committee.

Deputy Secret Service Director Matthew Quinn responded to the video by stating, “The U.S. Secret Service has no tolerance for any behavior that could potentially compromise the safety, privacy or trust of our protectees. This incident is under investigation, and the employee involved has been placed on administrative leave with his clearance suspended and access to agency facilities and systems revoked.”

  1. TRUMP XO STOPS CORPORATE PURCHASES OF SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES – President Donald Trump just signed an executive order that effectively prevents large corporations from buying single-family homes. The President posted on Truth Social, “To preserve the supply of single-family homes for American families and increase the paths to homeownership, it is the policy of my Administration that large institutional investors should not buy single-family homes that could otherwise be purchased by families.”

D. DNC CORRUPTION

  1. UNDERCOVER VIDEO EXPOSES ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT JUDGE-BRIBING RACKET – Patricia Golder, a migrant from Mauritania, exposed her whole alleged racket buying off judges and exploiting fraud-enabling immigration laws that allows her to set up illegal immigrants for life on the U.S. tax dollar. This also makes them indebted to her forever because she could get them arrested by ICE anytime she wants to. The whole confession was caught on an undercover video by Townhall.

At one point Golder revealed how she deals with Immigration Judges, “If I can get to the judge. You know, that’s the only person you want to talk to is the judge. I make conversation with them. You say, ‘I have this boy there and I need help. You work that day?’ If the judge says, ‘Yeah,’ Okay, $50,000 I send everybody to you. I go to the bar like everybody drink. Spot the judge. I say, ‘You work on this date?’”

  1. DNC CRIMINAL MEDIA CONTINUES TO INCITE VIOLENCE WITH INTENTIONAL LIES – The DNC media is revising its Trump is ‘deranged, demented, unfit to be President’ narrative while it knowingly pushes lies that get ICE agents killed. The most egregious version saw the DNC use a child as an agit prop tool, claiming ICE had used the child as bait to lure his father in so they can arrest him. This lie was perpetuated by the Democrat Party itself on social media.

JD Vance confronted a reporter who attempted to push this insurrectionist lie, called her out for the lie and corrected her on the details. ICE agents approached the man to arrest him. He fled the scene, abandoning his son in the backseat of his car. ICE then appropriately moved to take care of the now abandoned child.

He concluded, “If the argument is that you can’t arrest people who have violated our laws because they have children, then every single parent is going to be.. given immunity…Do we want these things to happen? Do we want these arrests to be so chaotic? No, we don’t, these guys want it least of all. But, if we had a little cooperation from local and state officials, I think the chaos would go way down in this community.”

  1. SBA HAS $26 BILLION SLUSH FOR BOGUS BUSINESSES THAT ALL EXCLUDE WHITE MEN – Chris Ruffo, the man who helped Florida legally remove DEI and wokeness from its public institutions, is claiming on Steve Bannon’s show, The War Room, that the Small Business Administration has a $26 billion slush fund they use to fund dubious businesses so long as those businesses aren’t owned by white men.

Ruffo claimed, “Yeah. So this is at the Small Business Administration. It’s a $26 billion slush fund that is dedicated to providing government contracts, including many no-bid government contracts, exclusively to firms that are owned by racial minorities and women. In many cases, these are shell companies where they have a token minority and then a private firm behind them. But in all cases, for this entire $26 billion slush fund, there’s only one identity group that is prohibited from accessing these funds or bidding for these contracts, white men.

And so this is like the epitome of DEI. It’s billions of dollars. There’s all sorts of fraud and corruption. In the program’s 45-year history, there’s never been a single audit done. And the question is simply this. It’s now one year into the Trump administration. The president came out strong on day one, said no more DEI. Why are we still administering billions of dollars for every group except for one? It seems totally unfair, totally unconstitutional. And yet it’s still something that, until now, has been surviving in the Trump administration.”

HEADLINES YOU MAY HAVE MISSED

  1. AS U.S. PULLS AWAY FROM SOUTH KOREA, FAKE NEWS LAW PASSES IN SEOUL – The U.S. Defense Department has revealed in a National Defense Strategy release that it is shifting its policy in South Korea, now calling on the state to protect itself from conventional threats to the North. As this was revealed, the CCP-captured government amended their law to prohibit “fake news” publishing. They did so over numerous protestations, including the U.S., who may recognize South Korea is now becoming a liability, a problem, perhaps, for Japan.
  2. TRUMP SEEKS TO SET TERMS OF AI BRAIN DATACENTER DEBATE COMING TO AMERICA – President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social about the emerging need for massive data centers to power AI brains which every nation-state will now need to be a world power in the years to come. He offered a carrot to the main sides of the incoming debate, the taxpayers who may be on the hook to pay for the data centers, the locals affected by the data centers, and the corporatists relying on those data centers for personal power.

He characterized it in the American context, writing, “We are the ‘HOTTEST’ Country in the World, and Number One in AI. Data Centers are key to that boom, and keeping Americans FREE and SECURE but, the big Technology Companies who build them must ‘pay their own way,” His post does not address another conflict-of-interest crisis, water resources, which are also needed in large volumes to fund the AI brains.

  1. TRUMP PUSHES FOR 10% INTEREST LIMIT ON CREDIT CARDS – The financial industry is already pushing back against President Trump’s calls to put a 1-year cap on credit card interest rates at 10%. The President declared on Truth Social, “Please be informed that we will no longer let the American Public be ‘ripped off’ by Credit Card Companies that are charging Interest Rates of 20 to 30%, and even more, which festered unimpeded during the Sleepy Joe Biden Administration. AFFORDABILITY!

Effective January 20, 2026, I, as President of the United States, am calling for a one year cap on Credit Card Interest Rates of 10%. Coincidentally, the January 20th date will coincide with the one year anniversary of the historic and very successful Trump Administration.”

  1. AMENDMENT TO DEFUND TREASONOUS JUDGES STRUCK DOWN BY RINO 46 – 46 RINO Progmericans within the GOP betrayed Americanist standards once again by helping the party of sedition, the party of Progmerica, the DNC-CCP, protect two of its most egregiously insurrectionist judges from having their office defunded.

Americanist Representative Chip Roy (R-TX) pushed forth the amendment as part of the appropriations package. The two judges targeted were James Boasberg and Deborah Boardman. Boasberg enabled Operation Arctic Frost and Boardman gave a would-be SCOTUS Judge assassin a lenient sentence. Both judges have consistently ruled outside the bounds of common-sense Americanist interpretations of the constitution, siding with leftist standards over American law.

  1. NY FIRES SALVO AT 3D GUN PRINTING – Progmerican NY Governor Kathy Hochul is making a push to figure out how to make software that enables 3D printers to print guns and gun parts illegal. Even as the real 2A push is increasingly heading to the drone frontier, the Progmericans are still hoping to contain the threat that comes from citizens equipped and capable of defending themselves against ALL enemies, foreign AND DOMESTIC, with small arms.

Her office released this official statement: “As part of her 2026 State of the State agenda, Governor Kathy Hochul today unveiled proposals to strengthen New York’s nation leading gun laws by cracking down on 3D-printed and illegal firearms. The new legislation would establish criminal penalties for the manufacture of 3D-printed firearms and order minimum safety standards to be established for 3D printer manufacturers to block the production of firearms and firearm components.”

  1. FAR-LEFT PROGMERICAN GOVERNOR LIFTS MORATORIUM ON NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS – In a sure sign that even the far-left is about to go all-in on the AI brain race, Progmerican Governor of Illinois J.B. Pritzker has signed legislation that ends a decades-long ban on new construction of large-scale nuclear power plants in the state. The move should be seen as a telegraph the left’s Green New Deal may be over. Expect talks of AI Justice to replace Climate Justice talks.
  2. ISRAELI TECH CEO CALLS ON U.S. TO LIMIT FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS TO PROTECT THEIR INTERESTS – Whether he realized it or not, Israeli billionaire tech entrepreneur and Cato Networks co-founder Shlomo Kramer just advocated for the restriction of Americans’ First Amendment rights essentially to protect Israel from online threats.

Here is how he chose to advance this Anti-First-Amendment narrative, “You’re seeing the polarization in countries that allow for the First Amendment and protect it, which is great. And I know it’s difficult to hear, but it’s time to limit the First Amendment in order to protect it. And quickly before it’s too late… I mean that we (government) need to control the platforms, all the social platforms. We need to stack, rank the authenticity of every person that expresses themselves online and take control over what they are saying, based on that ranking.”

  1. CONTRACEPTIVES IN CHINA NOW TAXED IN REVERSAL OF SUBSIDIZATION POLICY – For three decades, Chinese citizens would not pay taxes on contraceptives, which includes drugs and condoms; now, Chairman Xi has ordered a 13% value-added tax on contraceptives to discourage infertility. The move comes as the population has dropped for three years in a row, and the drop is only expected to plummet in upcoming years.
  2. AUSTRALIA GOES POLICE STATE IN RESPONSE TO ISLAMIST SLAUGHTERING OF JEWS – Australia is set to increase the power of the state to arrest its citizens for questioning the very religion that led to the massacre of 15 people at a Jewish festival. It will also make it more difficult for its citizens to own guns to assure more Islamist terror attacks are met with NO armed resistance.

It will do this while claiming to protect the Jewish community, which will now be in more danger from Islamist assaults they cannot defend against and government speech police they also cannot defend against, at least not anymore.

Effete Prime Minister Anthony Albanese claimed to be protecting Australians from future terrorist attacks by passing laws that ennoble hateful ideologies like Islam (now protected from criticism from Australian citizens) and assures their victims will be unarmed. He stated, “The terrorists had hate in their hearts, but they also had high-powered rifles in their hands. We’re taking action on both — tackling antisemitism, tackling hate, and getting dangerous guns off our streets.”

  1. FLORIDA WOMAN QUESTIONED BY POLICE FOR ACCUSING MAYOR OF CALLING FOR DEATHS OF PALESTINIANS – Raquel Pacheco of Miami Beach posted on Facebook that the Mayor was “the guy who consistently calls for the deaths of Palestinians.” After the post, police showed up to question her about it. The incident was caught on video.

This follows up a statement by Florida’s Lt. Governor Jay Collins in December that “You have a right to free speech, but you don’t have the right to harm other people with your words. And you don’t have the right to say things that have really negative, really horrible meanings. When you want people to destroy Israel, that matters.” This follows a spate of GOP-led “hate speech” regulations and laws that help affirm the DNC’s new “social” justice (Progmerican Rule of Law) over “individual” justice (American Rule of Law).

  1. JAPAN GOES CONSERVATIVE AFTER LANDSLIDE ELECTION BURIES THE LEFT – A new Japan is about to emerge that is sure to frighten China after a landslide victory by Japan’s conservative party leaves leftists with only 5 seats in the parliament. The victory is credited to Japan’s Prime Minister, Sanae Takaichi, who appeared to take a risk by calling for a snap election soon after her party appointed her Prime Minister.

The gamble has paid off, leaving conservatives with a super majority that will most likely alter Japan’s passivist constitution. One of the major changes expected is ending Japan’s self-imposed limitations on military spending and operations. President Trump congratulated the PM, sharing on Truth Social, “Congratulations to Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and her Coalition on a LANDSLIDE Victory in today’s very important Vote. She is a highly respected and very popular Leader. Sanae’s bold and wise decision to call for an Election paid off big time.”

  1. BRITAIN GETS A NEW HOPE WITH A NEW BRITAIN FIRST PARTY – As Nigel Farage of Reform UK appears to have plateaued in his lead in the polls (around 20-25%), frustration has grown that his half approach to the planvasion assault on the British people is wearing thin with British citizens.

Rupert Lowe, who was forced out of Reform by Farage (who even tried to get Lowe arrested based on now-proven trumped up sexual abuse charges), has formed a new party, Restore Britain. He promises not to merely slow down or halt “migration,” he plans on reversing it and sending most recent “migrants” back where they came from.

Since he has entered the race, his party has already hit 10% in the polls, taking mostly from disenfranchised Labour and Conservative voters. The corporate globalist media is doing their best to paint the fascist-nazi-racist label on Lowe, but the target audience most likely is now immune to such baseless treasonous dog whistles of anti-white, anti-British racism.

  1. CHINA’S DOOR SHUTS IN PANAMA CANAL – Panama has moved against two Hong Kong operated ports after pressure by the U.S. to force China out of the canal. Hong Kong was once an independent city-state that has since been taken over by the Chinese Communist party. CK Hutchinson Holdings responded, claiming, “None of the actions by the Panama State were advised to or coordinate with PPC. The Panama State is responsible for harm and damage caused by the confiscatory actions it has taken.”
  2. UN CHIEF BEGS MEMBERS FOR CASH TO KEEP PROJECT ALIVE – After the dust has settled post-Davos, it appears the great ecumenical project, the United Nations, might not make it out of the room alive. The UN’s Secretary-General António Guterres sent an urgent missive out at the end of January of 2026 to ALL 193 member nations. The letter warned of an “imminent financial collapse” should the member nations not kick in more funds IMMEDIATELY. The UN has $1.56 billion in outstanding dues, which has doubled from the previous year.
  3. PERU AXES PRO-CHINA PRESIDENT – After it was revealed that Peru’s President, Jose Jeri, had secret meetings with members of the Chinese Communist Party, Peru’s congress moved quickly to remove the President, who had only been in power for four months. He is the eighth President in eight years and the third President in the time-period to be removed by the congress.

B. ECONOMY

  1. AS UNEMPLOYMENT DROPS, SURGE IN JOBS SHOWS ECONOMY POISED FOR TAKEOFF – The U.S. created 130,000 jobs in January 2026 according to the Department of Labor, which is twice the number of jobs predicted to be created. The unemployment rate has also fallen to 4.3%. The jobs gains are all the stronger because, during this time there was a net loss in Government jobs of 34,000.
  2. WHO SHUTDOWN CONTINUES AS MEMBER NATIONS FAIL TO COME TO THE RESCUE – The World Health Organization (WHO) is shutting down major parts of its operation as it continues to run out of funds. The WHO will be shutting down the Department of Policy, Law, and Human Rights. The WHO and its surrogates continue to appeal to nation-states to rescue it before it’s too late, but so far, there are no takers to that challenge.
  3. SCOTUS CUTS OFF LEFTIST FOREIGN AID SLUSH FUNDS – After lower-level insurrectionist DNC-CCP judges repeatedly attempted to force the Trump administration to keep funding their party’s money laundering foreign aid fund scheme, the Supreme Court has officially ended their judicial tyranny. SCOTUS ruled 6-3 the Trump administration has every right to cut off $4 billion in foreign aid if he so chooses. The six justices assessed that “the harms to the Executive’s conduct of foreign affairs appear to outweigh the potential harm faced by respondents.”
  4. WASHINGTON POST GETS EVISCERATED, INCLUDING SEASONED “JOURNALISTS” – The Washington Post announced another round of massive cuts, this time of 30% of its staff. This includes 300 of its reporters, including a few seasoned ones. Among those journalists include every reporter and editor that covers the Middle East.

The former executive editor of the Washington Post, Marty Barron, commented on the announced cuts, saying “This ranks among the darkest days in the history of one of the world’s greatest news organizations. The Washington Post’s ambitions will be sharply diminished, its talented and brave staff will be further depleted, and the public will be denied the ground-level, fact-based reporting in our communities and around the world that is needed more than ever.”

C. U.S. POLITICS

  1. AMERICANS SUPPORT ICE DEPORTATIONS TWO TO ONE – According to the Democrats’ standards, “Democracy” is America’s central value. As such, news that Americans OVERWHELMINGLY support deporting illegal aliens (61 to 34 percent according to a Cygnal poll) is sure to cause the Democrats to stop calling for ICE agents to be terrorized by their insurgent army.
  2. APPEALS COURT COMPELS IRS TO SURRENDER TAX DATA ON ILLEGALS – The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit has ruled that President Trump has a right to retrieve taxpayer information on illegal aliens from the IRS. The court affirmed that laws protecting Americans from tax record privacy protections do not apply to illegals.
  3. TRUMP, GOP BUILD MASSIVE WAR CHEST LEAD OVER DNC AHEAD OF 2026 ELECTIONS – The RNC has $95 million cash in hand compared to the DNC, which has $14 million cash in hand, but $17 million in debt. The RNC is also debt-free. As of the end of 2025, Trump’s Super PAC, MAGA Inc., has raised $289 million in 2025 alone. MAGA Inc. is the biggest Super PAC, with Fairshake, a “Pro-crypto” Super PAC, coming in second at $194 million. A distant third was Leading the Future, a Pro-AI Super PAC, coming in at $39 million.
  4. CALIFORNIA’S ICE UNMASKING LAW CRUSHED BY CLINTON JUDGE – After California Governor Gavin Newsome (D) signed an illegal law forcing ICE agents to be unmasked to make it easier for his army of antifa revolutionaries to hunt and murder them, he was immediately shut down by Clinton-appointed U.S. District Judge Christian Snyder. The so-called “No Secret Police” act aims to help the DNC’s secret and street police, ANTIFA, enforce their unconstitutional “laws.” The judge says the law unfairly discriminates against Federal officers.

The judge did not address the underlying insurrectionist spirit behind the violent law. Attorney General Pam Bondi said of the ruling, “Law enforcement officers risk their lives every day to keep Americans safe, and they do not deserve to be doxed or harassed simply for carrying out their duties. California’s anti-law enforcement policies discriminate against the federal government and are designed to create risk for our agents.”

  1. AS DNC VIRGINIA LUNGES TOWARDS MARXISM, VIRGINIANS WANT GUNS, NOT SPANBERGER – Gun ownership in Virginia has a higher approval rating, 84%, than the Marxist they elected, Abigail Spanberger, who has a 32% approval rating. Her approval comes from the Democrats, who give her a 63.8% rating, compared to the republicans who give her an 88.1% disapproval rating, and independents who give her an 89.7% disapproval rating.
  2. HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL ENDS ANTI-ICE CHILD CRUSADE – The left’s ongoing assault on our children is continuing in high schools where teachers have been traumatizing children with lies about race, sexuality, gender, and America. Now, they’ve whipped the children into a frenzy to goad them into staging Anti-ICE protests. In West Lawn, PA those protests were stopped by a wily High School Principal.

Wilson High School Principal Daniel Weber announced to the students that had left the school to protest that they must immediately return or be suspended. The students had left without school authority, no doubt cheered on by the insurrectionist teachers who helps to contribute to the DNC-CCP’s agit prop on a daily basis. Only 60 students among the 2100 students decided to join protest.

D. CULTURE

  1. AMERICANISM CHAMPIONED IN TWO U.S. GOLD OLYMPIANS – 26-year-old Quinn Hughes scored the winning goal in the golden game of the 2026 Olympics Men’s Hockey tournament, defeating Canada in overtime 2-1. Afterwards, he gave an interview that made it clear he was there to win for the country he loves, America. His message went viral. He said, “It’s special. … I love the U.S. It’s the greatest country in the world, so [I’m] happy to represent it here with these guys. … It’s really special.” Team members were present at President Trump’s State of the Union Address.

Alysia Lui came to America from China, and her father faced great threats by the CCP to do so. Even after she came to America, the CCP was still threatening to kidnap her and force her to skate for China. She survived, going on to win the gold medal for her country of choice, America, knowing better than most Americans the blessing this country is to those who simply want to be self-stewarded people, to be free.

  1. AMA ABANDONS TRANS SURGERIES FOR KIDS – The American Medical Association, a bastion of Progmericanism, has conceded the battle against children by announcing it no longer supports transgender surgery for children. The association stated, “the evidence for gender-affirming surgical intervention in minors is insufficient for us to make a definitive statement…the AMA agrees with ASPS that surgical interventions in minors should be generally deferred to adulthood.”

This followed up this comment from the organization in 2021, “The American Medical Association (AMA) today strengthened its established position opposing the governmental intrusion into the practice of medicine that is detrimental to the health of transgender and gender-diverse children and adults. Legislatures in 20 states this year proposed banning physicians and other health care professionals from providing medically necessary gender-affirming care to transgender and gender-diverse youth…”

  1. DETRANSITIONER’S LAWSUIT VICTORY SETS PRECEDENT TRANS DOCTORS MIGHT NOT SURVIVE – At the end of last month, a malpractice lawsuit was ruled on that opens the door for more challenges to the medical industry’s rush to push patience into transgender surgeries and chemical “therapies.” The lawsuit awarded a 16-year-old girl $2 million for being hastened into life-altering “therapies.” The ruling appears to be setting off a potential wave of new lawsuits by more detransitioners that could price most transgender treatments out of the market.

More lawsuits could bankrupt transgender therapy programs that aggressively pushed the therapies by not clearly letting their patients know the cost of transitioning and also by lowering the previous standards for determining if this type of treatment is needed at all.

  1. DEI DYING IN CORPORATE BOARDROOMS, EXTREME LEFT ORG REPORTS – The far-left anti-human extortion group, Human Rights Campaign, is waving a red flag to alert its far-left anti-human base that their ideology of hate, fear, and fake hope, DEI, is dying. The organization reports only 131 Fortune 500 companies are participating in their extortion questionnaire called the “Corporate Equity Index.” The Index reads as demands, not questions, when you understand what HRC does, with the aid of the DNC-CCP and its corporate allies, to those who do not comply with their demands.
  2. PUERTO RICO’S UNBORN CHILD LAW TAKES EFFECT – Puerto Rican Governor Jenniffer Gonzalez signed an amendment to Senate Bill 823 that recognizes an unborn child as being a human being. The bill is seen as an assault on the abortion industry, which it thankfully is. The Governor declared an unborn child is legally a person, and now, that declaration is codified into Puerto Rican law.

She said at the signing that the law “aims to maintain consistency between civil and criminal provisions by recognizing the unborn child as a human being.” Puerto Rico joins 38 states that recognize the unborn as a person and 27 states that provide protection of the unborn throughout the prenatal period of human development.

She added,Every human being has legal personality and capacity from the moment of conception and is a subject of law for all purposes that are favorable to him or her. The inheritance rights that the law recognizes in favor of the unborn child are subject to the event of birth. The representation of the human being in gestation corresponds to whoever will exercise it when he or she is born and, in case of impossibility or incapacity, to a legal representative or court-appointed guardian.”

  1. TRUMP’S 2026 SOTU FEATURES DEMS REFUSING TO STAND FOR AMERICA – President Trump’s second SOTU of his second presidency was filled with DNC theatrics and a lot of awkward sitting. The President outlined his list of accomplishments, which were heavy on economics, and warned U.S. companies and other countries about reneging on their tariff deals, saying they will keep those deals, “Knowing that the legal power that I as president have to make a new deal could be far worse for them.” He also made his case for potentially attacking Iran but expressed a preference for “diplomacy.”

The key part of the President’s speech was the Democrats not standing up, repeatedly, for Americans. They sat for the men’s U.S. Olympic Gold Hockey team, they sat for more heroes, and they even sat for the mother of a woman slain by an illegal immigrant.  The culmination of them not standing came after Trump said this, “If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens.”

After the Democrats refused to stand, he stated, “You should be ashamed of yourselves for not standing up. You should be ashamed of yourselves” At one point he called them “sick people.” It will remain to be seen if the moniker sticks.

  1. ESG LOSES IN COURT AS VANGUARD SETTLES AND AGREES TO DROP THE IDEOLOGY – Texas has successfully sued the investment company Vanguard, who has chosen to settle the lawsuit. They have agreed to pay $29.5 million in punitive fees and have agreed to remove restrictions on investments based on a company’s ESG score. Next on the docket is Blackrock, which Texas is also suing for the same reason. Should Blackrock fold, the two main progenitors of ESG would be out of the ESG business.
  2. 3RD TRANSGENDERED MASS SHOOTER IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR KILLS SELF, WIFE, SON, AND ONE OTHER – A man presenting himself as a woman opened fire at a Rhode Island hockey game, killing his wife, his son, and then himself. Another person later died of their injuries. The killer was Robert Dorgan, who has a long social media history of making violent threats, including to Kevin Sorbo and Alec Jones.

He threatened people online saying, “Keep bashing us, but do not wonder why we Go BERSERK.” It could have been worse had a male bystander not intervened, causing the shooter to pull out another gun to shoot himself with.

  1. POTOMAC RIVER SEWAGE DISASTER TRIGGERED BY DNC INCOMPETENCE, TRUMP PROMISES RELIEF – HHS Secretary Kristi Noem is accusing Maryland’s State Democrat leadership of gross incompetence that led to a catastrophic environmental disaster in the Potomac River. Millions of gallons of sewage water were released into the Potomac because of a faulty pipe.

Noem said, “Thanks to gross mismanagement by Maryland’s Democrat leaders, hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage has reportedly been dumped into the Potomac River—flowing straight through our nation’s capital and endangering millions of people, wildlife, and the entire DC region’s water supply.”

The President has responded by pledging to use Federal resources to attempt to clean up the mess. DC Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) has officially declared a public emergency and requested Federal rescue.

B. EPSTEIN FILES

  1. LATEST TRUMP ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT TRIGGERED BY EPSTEIN FILES – 26-year-old Austin Tucker Martin somehow got onto President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate with a loaded shotgun and a can of gasoline. He was met by Secret Service who ordered him to put the shotgun, and the gas can down. He aimed the shotgun at the agents, who responded by shooting him dead immediately.

Martin appears to have been a former Trump supporter who allegedly went sour on Trump in response to his handling of the Epstein Files. He appears to have had mental health issues. A few days before the attempted assassination, he was reported missing by his family. He purchased the shotgun on his way to Mar-a-Lago from his North Carolina home.

  1. EARLY ON, TRUMP WANTED EPSTEIN, MAXWELL PROSECUTED, RECORDS SHOW – Epstein court documents reveal President Trump was one of the first people to raise an alarm about Jeffrey Epstein. He did so in 2006 when he called the police to recommend that they investigate Jeffrey Epstein AND Gislaine Maxwell, whom he called evil. The transcript of the phone call reveals Trump suspected Maxwell of being Epstein’s “operative.” He also called her “evil.” The call happened shortly after the Epstein investigation began.
  2. AMERICA, UK LEADERSHIP STILL UNDER INCREASING EPSTEIN FILES SCRUTINY – Pam Bondi’s showdown with U.S. congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) highlights the growing GOP divide between those who think there’s something serious to the Epstein Files and those who don’t. President Trump’s disconnect from this issue appears to be leading his strongest supporters to want to follow the lead.

Thomas Massie isn’t the only congressmember pressing for a full disclose of the people involved in the “alleged” child sex trafficking and blackmailing for real political power ring, including Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Nancy Mace (R-SC), both of whom claim to have seen some of the unredacted names, names that are still powerful and well-known today.

  1. EPSTEIN FILES DUMP HURTS UK MORE THAN U.S. – The Epstein Files release has triggered a growing scandal in the UK that continues to threaten their Prime Minster, Keir Starmer. He continues to hold on even as top members of his cabinet have been forced to resign. His connection to the Epstein Files is through allowing members of his cabinet, including his hand-picked U.S. ambassador, to continue to serve in government even after he KNEW they kept their connections to Epstein AFTER his conviction. This fact was not disclosed to the public, but it was to Starmer.

  1. XI SURVIVES COUP ATTEMPT, MAKES FIRST PUBLIC ADDRESS OF THE PURGE THAT FOLLOWED – Chairman Xi of China has finally publicly addressed the purge of most of his military leaders and political “allies” in response to what appears to have been a coup attempt by his second-in-command, Zhang Youxia. He addressed the military, stating, “The past year has been unusual and extraordinary, The People’s Army has deepened its political education, effectively addressed various risks and challenges and undergone revolutionary forging in the fight against corruption.”

While Xi has survived the coup, mobilizations within China suggest he has yet to fully restore stability. So far, none of the top spots have been replaced by anyone else. The purge leaves the military without seasoned Generals, and one of the few who has experienced combat, Youxia, is among the Generals that have been purged. As of right now, the conditions in China are still fluid by our assessment. Youxia himself is now rumored to have died in prison.

  1. EL MENCHO DEATH TRIGGERS CARTEL CIVIL WAR IN MEXICO – On Sunday, February 22, 2026, a raid led by the Mexican army and supported by U.S. assets successfully eliminated the top cartel leader in the region, “El Mencho,” or Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes. He was the general of Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG). He was killed in the town of Tapalpa, Jalisco.

Since his death, his well-armed and well-equipped militia has responded by launching terror attacks on multiple cities throughout Mexico, leaving foreigners, including Americans, stranded. Roadblocks were set up by the cartels where they took cars. 25 Mexican National Guardsmen have been killed in coordinated attacks, with the total estimated deaths so far placed at 60. The Mexican President, Caludia Sheinbaum, claims they’ve stopped the roadblocks, but video footage continues to come out suggesting otherwise. The situation is still fluid in Mexico.

  1. RUSSIA AND CHINA JOIN IRAN MILITARY EXERCISES AS TRUMP CONSIDERS NEXT MOVE – President Trump has been moving more U.S. military assets, including carrier groups, into the Persian Gulf region as he threatens war with Iran while continuing to engage diplomatically with Iran. China and Russia have participated in a joint military exercise with Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. At home, the President faces a potential congressional challenge to his authority to start a war with Iran. While protests continue sporadically in Iran, and reports of explosions continue to leak out, the regime appears fully in charge as it continues to slaughter the opposition.

D. INSURRECTION

  1. DNC INSURRECTION SHOWS SIGNS OF BECOMING MORE VIOLENT, AS PUBLIC SCHOOLS RECRUIT CHILDREN INTO THE DNC INSURRECTIONIST ARMY – While the violence is dying down in Minnesota after Trump announced a draw-down and a “gentler” approach to deporting illegal aliens, insurrectionist government teachers are using their government powers to force children into the battlefield. As the child crusades of the DNC start, the injuries are starting to pile up.
  2. FOREIGN NATIONALS ARE FUNDING DNC INSURRECTIONIST OPERATIONS THROUGH NON-PROFIT FRAUD – Witnesses testifying at a House Ways and Means Committee hearing are claiming that foreign nationals are illegally sending millions (if not billions) of dollars to bankroll DNC insurrectionist organizations.

Capital Research Center President Scott Walker said of the testimonies, “It’s refreshing to have a hearing where all witnesses share strong agreement on a central point, namely, foreign money should be kept out of American politics. A lot of these [foreign funding] problems involve America’s nonprofit sector, which is traditionally a glory and a strength of this exceptional country. But foreigners abuse this sector — especially tools like fiscal sponsorship and donor-advised funds, which aren’t inherently bad things — in order to hide their influence ops.”

  1. AS ANTI-ICE TERROR ASSAULTS CONTINUE, SENATOR CLAIMS OPERATION IS FOREIGN-FUNDED – The terrorist assaults on ICE agents in the lawful commission of a Presidential order are decreasing, but hardly ending. Public schools run by insurrectionists have built children’s armies, taking them away from learning and into the frontlines of their insurrectionist war.

Senator Jim Banks (R-IN) has sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, urging her to investigate the foreign funding of the terrorist operation. He wrote, “I urge you to investigate foreign influence behind anti-ICE activism. Progressive groups across the country are organizing protests, economic boycotts, and school walkouts to oppose immigration enforcement, they are inciting the obstruction of federal law.”

ED. NOTE: We support the rights of Americans to lawfully protest ICE action until it interferes with the lawful commission of a Presidential order. We do NOT support the use of children as political weapons whipped up into an anti-American frenzy by a treasonous class of Progmericans, the leftist public-school teachers.

  1. JUDGEFARE INSURRECTION EXPOSED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES – An article in the New York Times called “The Plan for a Radically Different Supreme Court Is Here,” exposes the Progmerican ideological capture of Federal judges and its plans to only accelerate the acts of insurrectionist judges.

The organization cultivating and identifying potential and existing jurists willing to rule based on social justice (Progmerican Rule of Law) over Individual Justice (American Rule of Law) is called the American Constitution Society (which is, in real spirit, the Progmerican Social Justice Rule of Law Society). This is the society the Biden committee used to select the 235 judges now working as one in opposition to the American republic, in lock step with Progmerican rule of law.

Jeffrey Toobin of CNN echoed the plan the article exposed, saying “For now, under Mr. Brest, the A.C.S. seems headed for an approach that looks like the one that Democratic politicians have so far adopted: aimed more at opposition to Mr. Trump’s record rather than on a specific, alternative vision for the Constitution. In his opening message to the group, Mr. Brest described the A.C.S. as building ‘a bulwark against overreach by the Trump administration and the Roberts court. Mr. Brest has pledged that A.C.S. will continue its Biden-era focus on judicial appointments … As for what those judges will stand for — as opposed to what they stand against — Mr. Brest has no clear answer.”

  1. FANI WILLIS, BIDEN ADMIN WORKED TOGETHER TO EXECUTE LAWFARE ASSAULT ON TRUMP – Fulton County DA Fani Willi’s deputy, F. Donald Wakeford, was caught in an email colluding with the Biden administration. The exchange was between Wakeford and Biden’s special council, Richard Sauber. They were exchanging notes on how to best use lawfare to assault their shared enemy, Donald Trump.

In September 2022, Sauber’s communicated to Wakeford, “These events threatened not only the safety of Congress and others present at the Capitol, but also the principles of democracy enshrined in our history and our Constitution. In light of these unique circumstances, President Biden has determined, as he did with respect to the Congressional investigation of these events, that an assertion of executive privilege is not in the public interest with respect to efforts to thwart the orderly transition of power under our Constitution.”

  1. CHINA MAKES MOVE TO KILL U.S. GLOBAL RESERVE CURRENCY MONOPOLY – As Chairman Xi struggles to hold on to power at home, abroad he’s flexing his economic muscle, making a call for the Chinese Yuan to join the U.S. dollar as becoming a global reserve currency. The comments were from 2024, but were just released now, in conjunction with China’s European campaign, which includes the UK, where Xi won major concessions and territory in central London to build a massive spy center.

  1. JESUS, DOGS IN UK CROSSHAIRS TO APPEASE ALLAH – In a bid to make Muslims feel comfortable in a predominantly Christian country, the United Kingdom’s government is seeking to protect them from a “Walk with Jesus” walk, telling the organization they’re not banning the event, they’re just not allowing it in White Chapel because Muslims.

The Metropolitan Police of London stated, “We have encouraged UKIP to consider the very real likelihood that their presence in Whitechapel could lead to serious disruption or serious disorder and to consider an alternative proposal. We are not saying that the UKIP protest, in isolation, will be disorderly. But we do know that many will find it provocative and that provocation is likely to lead to an adverse local reaction. We reasonably believe, based on the information available and on previous similar incidents, that the coming together of the UKIP protest with opposing groups who are hostile to its presence would be highly likely to lead to violence and serious disorder.”

The government is also doing a study on how to reduce whiteness in rural Britain to appeal to more non-whites coming in to visit and to move in and make the land their own. It seems the pet dog is the symbol of that colonizing white spirit, and as such the UK is looking into ways to curb dog ownership and public dog possession so that the incoming Muslims don’t feel colonized by the white devil.

  1. CHINA’S OWN NUMBERS SHOW BIRTH RATE COLLAPSE AND DEATH RATE EXPLOSION – According to China’s own numbers, the country’s birth rate hit 5.63 births per 1,000 people, a rate not seen since 1949. On the opposite side of the scale, China’s death rate hit 8.04 per 1000 people, which is up from 2024’s 7.76 deaths per 1000.

The death rate in 2025 exceeds the WORST death rates during the pandemic years, with 2024 ALSO exceeding those numbers. One major factor pushing the death rate up is simply China’s aging population. Over 23% of Chinese citizens are over the age of 60. Remember, these are China’s own reported numbers. There is growing skepticism about the population size of China, as well as to the extent of the unexplained deaths that have been happening in China (none which can be fully substantiated).

  1. CANADA TO BEGIN GUN CONFISCATIONS IN OCTOBER 2026 – After 5 years of having the “opportunity” to turn in their no-no guns and get paid in return, the time limit is running out. While the exact numbers of potential offenders are hard to find, the fact that the government has already extended the time limit three times tell you they’ve gotten themselves into an unenforceable situation, they lack the power to confiscate all the guns that haven’t been voluntarily turned in already.

Blair Hagen, an executive with the National Firearms Association, said the Canadian government has more problems than just non-compliance, saying, “We’re finding that they’re running into a lot of compliance issues. They have no idea where [the guns are] or who has them. So it’s proving to be a very, very difficult situation for the government.”

  1. EUTHANASIA ADVOCACY GROUP MAKES BANK PUSHING SUICIDES IN CANADA – The euthanasia advocacy group “Dying with Dignity” is apparently making millions hawking suicide to Canadians, suicides that have already seen the mentally ill and the medically neglected counted among their victims. In 2024 alone, Dying with Dignity had $9 million in tax free assets. The latest figures haven’t been released yet, but in Canada, suicide advocacy groups are treated like religious groups in America, they don’t pay taxes. The profit for pushing death is high.

  1. AFTER U.S. TANGLE WITH CHINA OVER SOUTH KOREAN AIRSPACE, GUESS WHO THE SOUTH KOREANS HAVE AN ISSUE WITH? – South Korea’s takeover by their Democratic Party has launched the country towards a Chinese death spiral that was confirmed when the U.S. changed its defense agreement with the now-CCP-captured country. Afterwards, an aerial dust-up between the U.S. and China has South Korea complaining about America’s presence, not China’s. Since the announcement, the U.S. is still engaging in drills with South Korea, for now.

Defense Minister Ahn Gyu-back issued a formal complain with the USFK commander, Army General Xavier Brunson. He was complaining about an incident that saw 10 U.S. F-16 Fighting Falcons entering South Korean and Chinese air defense identification zones. After it entered the space, China sent two fighter aircraft, resulting in what was only described as a “rare standoff.”

  1. KIM JONG-UN’S SISTER GAINS PROMINENCE AFTER WORKER’S PARTY CONGRESS VOTE – For only the 9th time since the Kims took over North Korea in 1948, the Workers’ Party Congress convened. They affirmed Kim Jong-un as their supreme leader and promoted his sister, and right-hand lieutenant, Kim Jo-jong, from a deputy department director to a full department director.
  2. CANADA ALLOWS SAD SUFFERER TO KILL HIMSELF – 26-year-old Kiano Vafaeian was given permission by the Canadian government to be murdered by doctors on the grounds that that suffering from Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is “grievous and irremediable.” Vafaeian is also blind and suffers from Type 1 Diabetes. Neither condition qualifies for MAiD (Medical Assistance in Dying).

The family of Vafaeian claim, “We believe that she (the MAiD doctor) was coaching him on how to deteriorate his body and what she can possibly approve him for and what she can get away with approving him for. We don’t want to see any other family member suffer, or any country introduce a piece of legislation that kills their disabled or vulnerable without appropriate proper treatment plans that could save their lives.”

  1. WASHINGTON DEMS PLUG SOCIALIST DEBT HOLE WITH POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS’ PENSIONS – Democrat “lawmakers” in the insurrectionist state of Washington passed legislation that essentially raids the pensions of police and firefighters to the tune of $4 billion. They hope to use the stolen funds to plug a deficit in their budget caused by their own bloated socialist programs.

One recipient of that stolen money will be the “Climate Commitment Account,” which is a de facto DNC-CCP political slush fund that helps arm its street fighters we see across America on a regular basis. These street fighters have been terrorizing cities and burning down businesses for years now. They will receive over half a billion dollars, or 12.5% of the Police and Firefighters pension fund.

  1. SCIENTISTS THREATEN PLANET WITH PANDEMIC IF WE DON’T END GLOBAL WARMING – A team of Romanian researchers appear to be the tip of the spear of a new climate change content marketing strategy involving dangerous bacteria. The researchers have discovered bacteria in ice cores from 5,000 years ago that appear immune to most current antibiotics. The researchers warn if global warming continues, the melted ice could release these bacteria, leading to a global, catastrophic pandemic.
  2. 11. HOCHUL LETS CHINA INVADE AMERICAN STREETS WITH DATA COLLECTING ROBOTAXIS – The Governor of New York and DNC-CCP party member Kathy Hochul handed New York’s vital data over to the Chinese Communist Party by allowing a country sworn to destroy our power to run their robotaxis, called Waymos, on American streets.

The company, Zeke, is a CCP-approved corporation that manufactures what are essentially street spies that members of the Democrat party appear more than ready to cosign. This, in part, is why this publication refers to the Democrats as the DNC-CCP, for they are frenemies working against their shared enemy, America.

  1. HINDU MOBS ATTACK INDIAN CHRISTIAN HOMES – After Indian Christians refused to denounce Christ, a mob of Hindu Indians attacked their homes, destroying them. Four families, 25 believers, were affected by the assault, which was carried out by 20 villagers. Attacks by Hindus against Christians have only increased under the Hindu nationalist Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi.

Christian Solidarity Worldwide President Mervyn Thomas said of the attacks, “It is deeply concerning to witness the grave and unacceptable assault and humiliation these families have been subjected to on account of their religion. Even more alarming is the failure of the police to protect these vulnerable citizens, which has emboldened the perpetrators. We call upon the district administration and state authorities to intervene as matter of urgency, ensuring the safety of the affected families, restoring their rights, compensating them for the loss of their homes, and holding those responsible to account under the law.”

Covering the news cycle between February 13 – 19, 2026

  1. BRITAIN GETS A NEW HOPE WITH A NEW BRITAIN FIRST PARTY – As Nigel Farage of Reform UK appears to have plateaued in his lead in the polls (around 20-25%), frustration has grown that his half approach to the planvasion assault on the British people is wearing thin with British citizens. Rupert Lowe, who was forced out of Reform by Farage (who even tried to get Lowe arrested based on now-proven trumped up sexual abuse charges), has formed a new party, Restore Britain. He promises not to merely slow down or halt “migration,” he plans on reversing it and sending most recent “migrants” back where they came from.

Since he has entered the race, his party has already hit 10% in the polls, taking mostly from disenfranchised Labour and Conservative voters. The corporate globalist media is doing their best to paint the fascist-nazi-racist label on Lowe, but the target audience most likely is now immune to such baseless treasonous dog whistles of anti-white, anti-British racism.

  1. WHO SHUTDOWN CONTINUES AS MEMBER NATIONS FAIL TO COME TO THE RESCUE – The World Health Organization (WHO) is shutting down major parts of its operation as it continues to run out of funds. The WHO will be shutting down the Department of Policy, Law, and Human Rights. The WHO and its surrogates continue to appeal to nation-states to rescue it before it’s too late, but so far, there are no takers to that challenge.
  2. SCOTUS CUTS OFF LEFTIST FOREIGN AID SLUSH FUNDS – After lower-level insurrectionist DNC-CCP judges repeatedly attempted to force the Trump administration to keep funding their party’s money laundering foreign aid fund scheme, the Supreme Court has officially ended their judicial tyranny. SCOTUS ruled 6-3 the Trump administration has every right to cut off $4 billion in foreign aid if he so chooses. The six justices assessed that “the harms to the Executive’s conduct of foreign affairs appear to outweigh the potential harm faced by respondents.”
  3. PUERTO RICO’S UNBORN CHILD LAW TAKES EFFECT – Puerto Rican Governor Jenniffer Gonzalez signed an amendment to Senate Bill 823 that recognizes an unborn child as being a human being. The bill is seen as an assault on the abortion industry, which it thankfully is. The Governor declared an unborn child is legally a person, and now, that declaration is codified into Puerto Rican law.

She said at the signing that the law “aims to maintain consistency between civil and criminal provisions by recognizing the unborn child as a human being.” Puerto Rico joins 38 states that recognize the unborn as a person and 27 states that provide protection of the unborn throughout the prenatal period of human development.

She added,Every human being has legal personality and capacity from the moment of conception and is a subject of law for all purposes that are favorable to him or her. The inheritance rights that the law recognizes in favor of the unborn child are subject to the event of birth. The representation of the human being in gestation corresponds to whoever will exercise it when he or she is born and, in case of impossibility or incapacity, to a legal representative or court-appointed guardian.”

  1. PERU AXES PRO-CHINA PRESIDENT – After it was revealed that Peru’s President, Jose Jeri, had secret meetings with members of the Chinese Communist Party, Peru’s congress moved quickly to remove the President, who had only been in power for four months. He is the eighth President in eight years and the third President in the time-period to be removed by the congress.
  2. VIRGINIA GUN TAX DIES IN SUBCOMMITTEE – One part of DNC Virginia’s plan to remake the state in a Progmerican image has failed before it ever reached a floor vote in the Virginia General Assembly. A bill that would have added a $500 gun suppressor tax failed in the subcommittee unanimously. This doesn’t mean the DNC won’t reintroduce the bill later, but, for now, they have to retreat, to the good of the American people behind DNC enemy lines in Insurrectionist Virginia.
  3. COALITION OF STATES TO OPPOSE MAIL-ORDER ABORTIONS GROWS TO 22 – Alabama has just joined 22 other states in opposing the 2023 FDA decision that allowed a deadly drug designed to terminate the unborn to be purchased over the counter, and even through the mail. The drug has already been used by men to murder unborn children against the mother’s will.

Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall said, “This rule is unlawful, plain and simple. The Biden FDA eliminated critical safety safeguards, authorized the mailing of abortion drugs in direct conflict with federal law, and empowered out-of-state providers to violate the laws of pro-life States. After Dobbs returned abortion policy to the States, the Biden administration attempted to override that decision through executive action. We are standing with Louisiana to defend state sovereignty, enforce the law, and protect unborn life.”

  1. CORPORATE AMERICA IS TUNING OUT RAINBOW MAFIA FLAGSHIP – The legal extortionist operation known as Human Rights Campaign (HRC) sends out a questionnaire every year to corporate America, designed to de facto threaten them if they don’t continue to enact policies that grant privilege to non-heterosexuals. Last year, 377 Fortune 500 companies responded, or 75%. This year, that plummeted to just 131, a 65% drop.
  2. NYU HOSPITAL DROPS TRANS SURGERIES FOR KIDS – Another hospital is being forced to stop its Moloch practice of sacrificing children to the transgendered god. NYU Langone Health has announced it is cancelling its transgender treatment program for kids out of fear of losing federal funding.

The hospital appeared to be clueless to the violent pedophilic crimes it has committed, confessing it ended the program due to the “current regulatory environment,” and not because mutilating children to satisfy your transgender ideology is pure evil, a fact that is easy to see for non-ideological normal human beings.

It stated, “Given the recent departure of our medical director, coupled with the current regulatory environment, we made the difficult decision to discontinue our Transgender Youth Health Program. We are committed to helping patients in our care manage this change. This does not impact our pediatric mental health care programs, which will continue.”

  1. IOWA MOVES TO STOP COLLEGE CAMPUS GUN GRABBERS – While Iowa Universities appear to want to create soft targets for mass shooters by creating “gun free zones,” the Iowa legislature is preparing to check their anti-American power grab. Iowa State Senator Jason Schults (R) has introduced a bill that appears on a fast track to passage.

The bill limits the restrictions on gun rights that colleges and universities can impose on their students and staff. It essentially allows Americans to possess firearms in secured positions in some places, including college campuses, and expands the right to conceal carry to include school parking lots.

  1. 3RD TRANSGENDERED MASS SHOOTER IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR KILLS SELF, WIFE, SON – A man presenting as a woman opened fire at a Rhode Island hockey game, killing his wife, his son, and then himself. The killer was Robert Dorgan, who has a long social media history of making violent threats, including to Kevin Sorbo and Alec Jones. He threatened people online saying, “Keep bashing us, but do not wonder why we Go BERSERK.” It could have been worse had a male bystander not intervened, causing the shooter to pull out another gun to shoot himself with. Our publisher, Bill Collier, has a Final Thought on pg. xx that goes deeper on this story.

  1. FIRST MAJOR ARRESTS HAPPEN IN EPSTEIN FILES – Britain and France have made the first major arrests connected to the Epstein Files while the U.S.’s Department of Justice has announced there are no more files to release, and no more redactions to be unredacted. The highest profile arrest is in Britain where former Prince Andrew was arrested. At home, former Trump strategist Steve Bannon has taken the biggest hit, with emails and texts suggesting he was working to help Epstein overcome his broken image AFTER he was convicted of pedophile-related charges. Bannon has denied the characterization.

We are beginning to suspect that the reason the Trump administration continues to protect the truth from coming out is that they believe the damage to the U.S. and Israel would be worse than whatever happens as a result of hiding such an abominable truth. We note that in the Old Testament prophets, the two great sins charged against Judah and Israel were child sacrifice and whoredom. The truth behind the Epstein Files reveals an international class of “leaders” who have been engaging in both at the most extreme, darkest depths of both whoredom and child sacrifice. Fear the Lord, not men, President Trump.

  1. RUSSIA AND CHINA JOIN IRAN MILITARY EXERCISES AS TRUMP CONSIDERS NEXT MOVE – President Trump has been moving more U.S. military assets, including carrier groups, into the Persian Gulf region as he threatens war with Iran while continuing to engage diplomatically with Iran. China and Russia have participated in a joint military exercise with Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. At home, the President faces a potential congressional challenge to his authority to start a war with Iran. While protests continue sporadically in Iran, and reports of explosions continue to leak out, the regime appears fully in charge as it continues to slaughter the opposition.

  1. XI’S HOLD ON CHINA NOT SO SECURE AFTER ALL – Signs within China point to instability continuing in the wake of Chairman Xi’s recent purge of an attempted coup. The coup appears to have been led by the-then second most powerful man in China, Zhang Youxia. Zhang was well-respected by the military, and they appear willing to send public signals they continue to support him.

That signal came through their newspaper, the Liberation Army Daily, which featured an article signaling support for an historic figure like Zhang Youxia. That historic figure is Zhang Guotao, who broke with Mao Zedong in the 30s. This was the first of six similar articles released following the reported arrest of Zhang Youxia.

  1. POTOMAC RIVER SEWAGE DISASTER TRIGGERED BY DNC INCOMPETENCE, TRUMP PROMISES RELIEF – HHS Secretary Kristi Noem is accusing Maryland’s State Democrat leadership of gross incompetence that led to a catastrophic environmental disaster in the Potomac River. Millions of gallons of sewage water were released into the Potomac because of a faulty pipe.

Noem said, “Thanks to gross mismanagement by Maryland’s Democrat leaders, hundreds of millions of gallons of raw sewage has reportedly been dumped into the Potomac River—flowing straight through our nation’s capital and endangering millions of people, wildlife, and the entire DC region’s water supply.”

The President has responded by pledging to use Federal resources to attempt to clean up the mess. DC Mayor Muriel E. Bowser (D) has officially declared a public emergency and requested Federal rescue.

  1. AS ANTI-ICE TERROR ASSAULTS CONTINUE, SENATOR CLAIMS OPERATION IS FOREIGN-FUNDED – The terrorist assaults on ICE agents in the lawful commission of a Presidential order are decreasing, but hardly ending. Public schools run by insurrectionists have built children’s armies, taking them away from learning and into the frontlines of their insurrectionist war.

Senator Jim Banks (R-IN) has sent a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi, urging her to investigate the foreign funding of the terrorist operation. He wrote, “I urge you to investigate foreign influence behind anti-ICE activism. Progressive groups across the country are organizing protests, economic boycotts, and school walkouts to oppose immigration enforcement, they are inciting the obstruction of federal law.”

  1. NOTE: We support the rights of Americans to lawfully protest ICE action until it interferes with the lawful commission of a Presidential order. We do NOT support the use of children as political weapons whipped up into an anti-American frenzy by a treasonous class of Progmericans, the leftist public-school teachers.

  1. JUDGEFARE INSURRECTION EXPOSED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES – An article in the New York Times called “The Plan for a Radically Different Supreme Court Is Here,” exposes the Progmerican ideological capture of Federal judges and its plans to only accelerate the acts of insurrectionist judges.

The organization cultivating and identifying potential and existing jurists willing to rule based on social justice (Progmerican Rule of Law) over Individual Justice (American Rule of Law) is called the American Constitution Society (which is, in real spirit, the Progmerican Social Justice Rule of Law Society). This is the society the Biden committee used to select the 235 judges now working as one in opposition to the American republic, in lock step with Progmerican rule of law.

Jeffrey Toobin of CNN echoed the plan the article exposed, saying “For now, under Mr. Brest, the A.C.S. seems headed for an approach that looks like the one that Democratic politicians have so far adopted: aimed more at opposition to Mr. Trump’s record rather than on a specific, alternative vision for the Constitution. In his opening message to the group, Mr. Brest described the A.C.S. as building ‘a bulwark against overreach by the Trump administration and the Roberts court. Mr. Brest has pledged that A.C.S. will continue its Biden-era focus on judicial appointments … As for what those judges will stand for — as opposed to what they stand against — Mr. Brest has no clear answer.”

  1. VA HIGH COURT GIVES GO-AHEAD FOR NEW GERRYMANDERING REFERENDUM – The Virginia Supreme Court has just given the insurrectionist DNC state the go-ahead to push a referendum that will effectively cancel 4 U.S. House seats for conservatives. DNC Virginia looks to cement its hold on American soil by effectively making it impossible for non-Democrats to ever win in the state again. The referendum, the new district map, will be voted on starting this March through mid-April. The move followed the GOP’s failure to secure a gerrymandering scheme favorable to their party in Indiana, a state they fully control.

The courts have failed at all levels to recognize the constitutional violations of gerrymandering as a principle, which allows political parties to create geographically unnatural voting districts to assure their party cannot be defeated in a general election ever again. Now, millions of conservatives will be effectively disenfranchised from the voting rolls. They will be effectively taxed without representation. SCOTUS continues to allow this unconstitutional practice.

  1. COLBERT DEFIES NETWORK, SPREADS MISINFORMATION ABOUT RESTRICTIONS ON TALARICO INTERVIEW – Progmerican Late Night Host Stephen Colbert was told by CBS News that his scheduled interview with Texas Democrat Candidate for Senate James Talarico would be required to include an opposite counter, mainly another Democrat candidate running against him in the same Senate Primary.

Stephen Colbert used his show’s dwindling platform to push forth the lie CBS news simply did not want Talarico on the show altogether, claiming, “He was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our network’s lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast. Then I was told in some uncertain terms that not only could I not have him on, I could not mention me not having him on, and because my network clearly doesn’t want us to talk about this, let’s talk about this.”

The action is seen as a direct challenge to the new head of CBS News, Bari Weiss, whose department was behind the decision. As of this writing, CBS News has doubled down on its counter to Colbert’s claims, but no overt action has been taken in response to what was an overt act of misinformation intended to undermine the credibility of the company that pays his salary. This was not the act of a whistleblower, it was the act of an information terrorist, an agit propagandist, a Marat Molotov-cocktail thrower.

  1. UK LOOKS TO “SOCIALLY TRANSITION” 4 YEARS OLD – The United Kingdom’s Department of Education is set to issue guidelines for transitioning children to genders of their choosing. The current draft reveals the department plans on allowing schools to “socially transition” children as young as four. The policy “acknowledged that there is a lack of good evidence on the long-term impact of social transition on young people, but it is clear that social transition should be viewed as an active intervention that may have significant effects on the child or young person in terms of their psychological functioning and longer-term outcomes.”

Maya Forstater of the biological-sex human rights group Sex Matters, responded to the report, stating “Schools are still being left with the idea that they can facilitate ‘social transition’ – which remains undefined – and that they should negotiate this on a case-by-case basis. They are being encouraged to think that children have a ‘birth sex’ as well as some other concept of sex. This has no basis in law or reality, and undermines safeguarding. It should be clear by now that allowing children and parents to think that a child who starts their education as a girl can graduate as a boy or vice versa is a dangerous fairy tale.”

  1. MAMDANI’S HOLD ON NY HIGHLIGHTS DNC ISLAM IN PRACTICE – If you want to get a sense of what DNC Islam rule is like, New York’s new Mayor, DNC Islamist Zohran Mamdani, is putting to flesh those policies. Already, Israeli companies are being forced out, the Muslim call to prayer is polluting New York airspace, and Mamdani is threatening to raise property taxes by 9.5% if New York state doesn’t give Mamdani the bloated budget he wants (a budget that is almost as much as the entire state of Florida).

Now, Mamdani is also bringing in violent radical Islamists into his government, which includes a former CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) staffer. CAIR is considered a terrorist organization by Americans, though our own government so far has failed to recognize this reality. The operative, Faizi Ali, will now be New York City’s chief immigration officer. Expect an army of violent Islamist radicals to be imported to their new American caliphate HQ, New York City, a fallen city.

EUTHANASIA ADVOCACY GROUP MAKES BANK PUSHING SUICIDES IN CANADA – The euthanasia advocacy group “Dying with Dignity” is apparently making millions hawking suicide to Canadians, suicides that have already seen the mentally ill and the medically neglected counted among their victims. In 2024 alone, Dying with Dignity had $9 million in tax free assets. The latest figures haven’t been released yet, but in Canada, suicide advocacy groups are treated like religious groups in America, they don’t pay taxes. The profit for pushing death is high.

WASHINGTON DEMS PLUG SOCIALIST DEBT HOLE WITH POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS’ PENSIONS – Democrat “lawmakers” in the insurrectionist state of Washington passed legislation that essentially raids the pensions of police and firefighters to the tune of $4 billion. They hope to use the stolen funds to plug a deficit in their budget caused by their own bloated socialist programs.

One recipient of that stolen money will be the “Climate Commitment Account,” which is a de facto DNC-CCP political slush fund that helps arm its street fighters we see across America on a regular basis. These street fighters have been terrorizing cities and burning down businesses for years now. They will receive over half a billion dollars, or 12.5% of the Police and Firefighters pension fund.

“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” – Matthew 5:43-48

“And he answered, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.’” – Luke 10:12

  1. NOTE: Satan wants us to hate the sinner, not the sin. God calls us to ONLY to hate the sin. In the wake of yet another mass shooting by a transgendered person, the temptation to vilify and demonize this whole group of people, transgendered people, is strong. The temptation to make the transgendered person the enemy, the “other” is strong as well.

But transgendered people are human beings, all with the image of God within them, all as sacred to God as non-trans people are. Our publisher, Bill Collier, shares a few thoughts on being a good neighbor to whoever the “other” is in your life. In this case, the “other” might become the transgendered person. Should you fall for this temptation from Satan, your list of “others” is only sure to grow, as Satan designed it.

Violent psychotics appear in every era, in every society under different psychosis, from religious fanatics to anarchists. Now, we are seeing climate alarmist fanatics, neo-Nazis, Islamists, and, especially more recently, trans extremist wackos.

Religion doesn’t make people psychotic.

Concern for the environment isn’t psychotic.

Islam as a religion doesn’t make people psychotic.

Neo–Nazism IS psychotic: there are no good neo-Nazis.

But trans people aren’t inherently psychotic.

I think people who have a propensity toward psychosis pick something as a cause. Right now, people who would likely have been psychotics for another reason are on the trans bandwagon, their
vehicle of power.”

The radical trans ideology is, in my opinion and estimation, a close cousin and “gateway drug” to transhumanism, which is as maleficent as Nazism or Stalinism.

We used to use the term “trans sexual” for people who believed they were the opposite sex to their biology. They didn’t try and force anyone to speak a certain way, to use their preferred pronouns, or to affirm them in any way.

Back in the 80s, in MY experience, trans sexual people were treated like anyone else. You weren’t compelled to call a man a woman, but you were expected to be polite and respectful. You were expected to not judge them as a human being, even if you disagreed with their life choices or their beliefs. In the 80s, the spirit of “mind your own business” was still strong in the American street.

Of course, there were the truly intolerant, the people who preyed on difference as a sport. The transgendered person was an easy target for them, though they didn’t get much support for their actions. They also suffered little consequence other than social disassociation.

In the late 80s, a dear friend of mine had AIDS. He was treated as a pariah by his own family, and many of his friends. He was dying in a hospice with few visitors. When someone did visit, they wouldn’t hug him, wouldn’t eat with him.

My Mother and I were the last two people regularly visiting him. We already knew AIDS was not as contagious as people feared, so we happily hugged him and ate with him. He was a homosexual. He was a family friend. That latter point weighed far more than the former point did. Back then, I was a Christian as I still am today. He understood clearly that I did not approve of his lifestyle, but I was still his friend, and he was mine.

Near the end, I was able to give him a gospel message, and in the last few weeks of his life he became a Christian like me. My time with him in those last few months was precious, and through him I learned a lot about myself, life, and my God, for it was not my stone heart, but my heart of flesh, that compelled me through God’s love to follow God’s commands, to love your neighbor, even your enemy, as yourself.

It was in spite of me that God blessed this man through me, just as surely as it will be in spite of you that you will do the same, if you haven’t already (and most of you probably have similar stories to tell).

While my friend had to face people rejecting him, people being bigoted towards him (and far beyond committing “micro-aggressions”), he also had us. And most of my friends back then were like us. It was OK to say you believe in certain things and disagree with others, but when it comes to doing life together, you still had to be decent and kind to everyone. The spirit of “mind your own business” was still strong in these American streets.

Being transgendered doesn’t make you a trans ideologue. THIS is where the psychosis comes from, NOT from transgenderism in and of itself. The trans ideology imposes conformity, celebrates transness and vilifies “cis-gendered” people (which is 95 plus percent of humanity). The trans ideology, not transgenderism, is as psychotic as Nazism, and has the same outcome, it produces serial killers, people who shoot up schools, churches, and even hockey games.

Their vision for society could not happen without canceling the entirety of the Judeo-Christian way of life and civilizational paradigm. It would mean the corrupting of children as official policy in every school. It is mentally destabilizing and dangerous.

Transgendered people do not necessarily embrace the current extremist version of trans ideology (especially not the older ones), but when they do, they become ticking time bombs. Just as people feared all gays would give them AIDS, now people fear all transgendered people will become violently deranged and shoot the place up.

The response from the Trans Ideologues to credible concerns about the ideology has been to accuse people of being bigots, transphobes, worthy of economic assassination, for even expressing concern at this growing violent trend (on the margins of extreme violence, but not overall). These accusations are tiring, and only serve at this point to harden hearts against ALL transgendered people.

If you truly hated transgendered people, you’d want the Trans Ideologues to continue to respond to critique just the way they have, knowing they are winning converts over to your own dark ideology of unrighteous and anti-American hate.

Their reactions make it appear to be more of a cover-up and a way to shame people rather than a good faith effort to address the underlying fears.

It is a denial of reality to say that back in the 80s gay people weren’t more likely to get AIDS, and that getting AIDS was most likely a death sentence; therefore, it was not paranoia or bigotry that led Americans to believe AIDS was something to avoid.

People had a legitimate fear that they might catch this. It was irrational when it became “all gays” and when people thought merely shaking someone’s hand or hugging a person could give you AIDS. It became more and more irrational as evidence piled up showing AIDS wasn’t so contagious, and as treatment for AIDS became more effective.

As a sidenote, we do understand the dark history of the “development” of treatment for AIDS and how it ties to Dr. Anthony Fauci, but we’ll save that rabbit hole for another time.

It is also a denial of reality to say that the extremist version of trans ideology doesn’t exist, and that transgendered people are NOT more drawn to it than anyone else. It is not transphobic to acknowledge this ideology causes real harm, which includes leading trans ideologues to target heterosexuals, especially kids, for assassination.

That fear becomes irrational, and maybe transphobic, when you start to think every trans person is out to kill you, or even that EVERY trans person is a trans ideologue (not even the majority are) or that EVERY trans person is psychotic (crime statistics, outside of the extreme category of mass murder, do not back up such claims).

Some ideologies are inherently evil, like Nazism and Communism. There are no good nazis or communists. But there are good transgendered people. There are good religious people. I mean good in an American sense, not in a Christian sense (in that sense, none of us are good, Psalm 53).

The modern trans ideology being pushed by the corporate world, entertainment, and education institutions, and by every HR department, is inherently evil, but it isn’t the predominant ideology of transgendered people. There are far more “cis-gendered” adherents to this ideology than transgendered ones.

I think a perfect litmus test is to ask someone if they think people who refuse to use alternative pronouns should be canceled or even punished by the law. Anyone who says yes to that might just be a ticking time bomb and a real danger you need to avoid.

If someone cannot simply agree that there are only two natural genders and all else is a social construct, they are on the spectrum toward the trans ideology and could become a danger to society.

Most transgendered people are not trying to force you to comply with their alternative ideas on sex, sexuality, and gender, they just want you to respect their beliefs and treat them as a human being. Seeing another transgendered shooting should not be the basis for hating transgendered people any more than watching Roots, a mini-series about the REAL hell of American slavery, should make you hate all white people.

We should be aware that some ideologies are inherently dangerous but also, we should be aware that radical ideologies that may champion a group are rarely ever followed by most people in that group. Some versions of Christian Nationalism, for instance, claim to champion Christianity but most all Christians reject these ideologies.

Unless you want to outlaw my dissent from the idea that gender can be a social construct, I’m fine with you being what you see as your authentic self. If you act in that ideological militancy, I’m just going to avoid you and consider you a potential hazard to others.

In times of upheaval, the fear of the other winning leads us to make our neighbors (the transgendered person) our enemies (the trans ideologue), and our enemies an “other” we are exempt from loving, exempt from still seeing as humans.

Be wise, be awake, carry two swords, but remember to love your neighbor as yourself, even if they’re your enemy. If we can resist the temptation Satan has set before us, to lead us to hate the whole of humanity by first hating our transgendered neighbors, we as a people can get through this dark valley to the other side, where dry bones will come to life and our land will be revitalized with hope.

The transgendered person has become a bellwether for our own hate, our own love. What comes next will follow as a result of the spirit we allow this time to create for us. Love breaks the cycle of violence, hatred of the other (not hatred of sin, which is good and righteous) keeps it going.

Let us love in truth, not hate in fear.

“… the state cannot take authority over men that God himself has chosen not to. Free will must be preserved lest you be spitting into the face of God.” – Paul Gordon Collier

“Mr. Speaker, in 1848, Karl Marx said, a progressive income tax is needed to transfer wealth and power to the state. Thus, Marx’s Communist Manifesto had as its major economic tenet a progressive income tax. Think about it, 1848 Karl Marx, Communism…. I say it is time to replace the progressive income tax with a national retail sales tax, and it is time to abolish the IRS, my colleagues. I yield back all the rules, regulations, fear, and intimidation of our current system.”James Traficant, former Democrat U.S. representative, one of the last American Democrats to serve in congress (maybe Senator John Fetterman of PA is the last?)

I had originally planned on listening to the “competing” Halftime Shows of this year’s Superbowl, the championship game of America’s premiere professional sport, football, and that sports’ premiere football league, the NFL (National Football League).

My original intention was to analyze the content of each performance, with the TPUSA halftime show taking up the space of “America” and the Bad Bunny OFFICIAL halftime show representing Progmerica (which the NFL also represents).

The fact that the Bad Bunny songs were all in Spanish made that last part a bit of a challenge. The fact that, even if you remove the political context completely, I have no interest to listen to the types of music being played in either halftime show, sealed my decision. I could not bring myself to watch the totality of either show. Therefore, I won’t be talking too specifically about the content of each show, but rather about the bellwether elements of both shows as they represent the zeitgeist of America today.

First of all, right from the start, the felt NEED for conservatives to have their own halftime show reveals the existential divide in this land between those who embrace the progressive nation and those who refuse to bend their knee to it.

The NFL highlighted that divide, as they have done again and again, by having TWO “national” anthems, one for the POC (Person of Color, the High Priests of Progmerica, the progressive nation) and one for the country they hate, the American nation.

They performed the American anthem not because they wanted to, but because they had to. They understand that Progmerica has risen from within America, that it has hijacked America’s symbols and terminology, and converted them into something wholly and completely unamerican, though Progmerica cannot as of yet stand on its own until the legal definition of America changes (and they’re working on that).

The word racism is the bellwether of their tactics. It is a word that is born from America’s rightly felt guilt for sub humanizing the African race and allowing them to be legally bought and sold as property. It is a word that helped us understand the nature of our sin, our willingness to sub humanize the other, and conquer the possible fatal flaw of our constitution, that it began with a wild hypocrisy.

As a matter of fact, our ideal of the divine right of self-stewardship is what made American slavery so vicious. Having a principle that protected ALL HUMANS from the tyranny of the state that JUSTIFIES that state’s very authority meant either slavery had to die, or the black man had to become a gorilla, or worse (anything but human).

The NFL has taken to use its space as political agit prop, and the Superbowl was no exception, though thankfully the NFL’s most violent slogan wasn’t used, “End Racism.” Instead, they chose the Motte in opposition to rounding up illegal aliens with “Choose Love” and “It Takes All of Us,” leaving out the violent looting Bailey, the fact that those who support the illegal aliens do so at the expense of their neighbors, who aren’t’ given a choice as to whether or not they want to sacrifice their wealth (and their lives, in many instances, especially the lives of their children) for the benefit of foreigners.

They are not advocating love, they are using the word love in replacement of what they REALLY support, CONQUEST. This is the punishment of the haves at the benefit of the have-nots, with the ultimate haves being WHITE American citizens, and the have nots being the poor POC from the “Global South,” their new victim class shield they’ve been developing these last few years.

Yet those slogans were nowhere near as bad as the slogan “End Racism” if you understand how the NFL terms racism. This bears taking a bit of a detour before we get back to our main point, because it clarifies the spirit of the NFL even better than the Superbowl Halftime show did (it also helps explain how an “American” institution could make such anti-American choices).

I asked Grok how the NFL defines racism, and in that answer Grok revealed it’s just as racist in its assumptions as the NFL is. Grok summarized its report to me with this paragraph:

“The NFL aligns its stance with recognizing both individual prejudice and systemic/institutional forms of racism, as seen in condemnations of discriminatory practices (e.g., hiring biases, racial tropes, or policies disadvantaging Black players/employees). This mirrors broader contemporary understandings (e.g., post-2020 dictionary updates emphasizing systemic oppression and power imbalances), but the league frames it through commitments to equality, inclusion, diversity, and anti-discrimination policies rather than a precise dictionary-style definition.”

I asked Grok what the definition of racism is post-2020, and it revealed dictionary definitions that don’t go as far as progressive definitions, but most of these definitions prepare the ground for them. They also don’t contradict the progressive definitions.

The closest they come to the progressive definition is in Merriam-Webster, which makes “racism” social, not individual, calling it “the systemic oppression of a racial group to the social, economic, and political advantage of another.” That definition is JUST about where the progressive definition is, the one that would be used by Progmerica.

Grok did tell me, “The prevailing definition of racism in major American dictionaries today (as of February 2026) emphasizes both individual beliefs/prejudice and systemic or institutional aspects, reflecting updates made around 2020 in response to evolving usage.”

Let’s make this clear, this isn’t evolving usage, it’s nudging. The dictionaries aren’t reflective of common usage, they’re reflecting Academia’s WILL for common usage. They’re engaging in political information terrorist action intended to overthrow America’s justification for existence, INDIVIDUAL justice, not SOCIAL justice.

There is no individual racism definition in the progressive lexicon. Grok’s answer on what the progressive academic definition of racism is reveals EXACTLY what racism is to Progmericans, living while being white.

Grok wrote, “The prevailing definition of racism in progressive academic scholarship – particularly in fields like sociology, education, critical race theory (CRT), ethnic studies, and anti-racism activism-centers on racism as a systemic phenomenon rather than merely individual prejudice or hatred. This view, dominant since the late 20th century and especially post-2010s in progressive circles, often frames racism through variations of ‘prejudice plus power’ (or ‘power + prejudice,’ sometimes stylized as R = P + P) …

Racism requires the combination of such prejudice with social, institutional, or structural power to enforce it systemically, resulting in oppression, unequal outcomes, and advantage for the dominant racial group (typically white people in Western contexts) …

It is a system of advantage/oppression based on race, often described as a ‘white supremacy system’ or hierarchy that benefits whiteness at the expense of people of color.”

If you walk out that definition, you realize the ONLY PEOPLE CAPABLE of being racist are white people in America, and the progressive will tell you the white man can’t HELP but be racist (since they invented racism in the first place, according to Progmericans), perpetually.

When the NFL puts out that label on their endzones, “End Racism,” they are creating a violent heuristic against the white race, engaging in ACTUAL systemic racism, by sending the subtle message “End the White Race,” because, to the progressive, so long as the white race lives, so does evil.

The NFL also represents the tactic of a virus that invades a cell, clones its structures, but uses them to attack the body itself. It’s red-white-and-blue American shield remains unchanged, but the principles of the league are no longer American. The NFL was an American institution, born from American values, coopted by progressives who turned the vehicle of power that is the NFL, the richest sports league in the world, bar none, and turned it into a violent vehicle of power intended to overthrow the very country that gave birth to it.

This brings us back to the Superbowl Halftime Show.

Building an American answer to the Progmericans’ hijacked NFL (the national part is Progmerican, not American anymore) is impossible, especially because many Americans, including this writer, still enjoy NFL games (though this might be the last straw for me at this point). But building an alternative to the NFL’s halftime show is NOT impossible ESPECIALLY if you have a central rallying point, which Americans thought they did in TPUSA.

We thought we had an American rallying point in Donald Trump as well, though this writer never fully supported that assumption. TPUSA is a perfect symbol of the type of power President Trump truly represents, thin Americanism, which is no real Americanism at all.

The headliner for the TPUSA halftime show was a talent-broke has-been named Kid Rock who has revitalized his dead career making thin pandering “Murica” songs that exploit hot headlines. His songs are built to make money now and never be played again (and I doubt 50 years from now ANY of the songs he wrote in this era will be remembered by anyone).

Kid Rock contrasted against Bad Bunny, a man who has genuine fans and real talent. Bad Bunny’s music isn’t remotely my cup of tea, but my gauge of the culture is he is respected as a real talent, an innovator in his genre. Kid Rock has none of that cultural power, and justifiably so.

As a result of this halftime show, Bad Bunny has a lot of political fans now as well, like Kid Rock, people who would otherwise not like his music one iota but now see it as a social power signal that needs boosted by their public displays of fandom.

Bad Bunny put a middle finger up to America and called it “love.” He sang in Spanish to symbolize the eventual conquering of white America by the global south. He did this as an American citizen, which makes this treasonous in spirit, at the very least.  I doubt Bad Bunny understands this is essentially what he did, heuristically, for he’s more an instrument of propaganda than the actual propagandists are.

Kid Rock lied to his audience right from the start by letting them believe he was performing live when he later revealed his performance was prerecorded and parts of it were even lip-synced. Hearing snippets of his songs, I heard what I expected, cartoon-simple chord progressions designed for cliched emotional effects, with lyrics a 10-year-old child of average intelligence could write.

He didn’t create art, he created art-like structures designed to give his political supporters enough suspension of disbelief that this is an art they are purchasing because they enjoy it and not what it really is, AI-music-level quality slop they’ve purchased to own the progressives at the benefit to only Kid Rock and his bank account.

I listened to excerpts of Bad Bunny’s performance, and, while it isn’t my cup of tea, I recognize art, craft, excellence in his work I doubt I will ever see again in Kid Rock’s.

The halftime shows were competing social power signals that were followed up by pushes to sell the songs connected to the shows. Kid Rock “won” that race, allegedly, and made tens of thousands of dollars (or more) I am sure will be used to fight Progmericans (note the sarcasm I intend in this sentence).

TPUSA is leaning into the cartoon-simple Murica spirit to grift off the well-meaning Americans who somehow believe if we get more views on our low-quality halftime show we will beat the progressives. If Kid Rock outsells Bad Bunny and outranks him on the music charts, AMERICA WINS, only it doesn’t. For every TPUSA halftime show viewing, the heuristic is being sent to the viewer who saw both, Progmerica is more real than America.

As a result, America’s credibility continues to decline as young people can clearly see Progmericans offer art and Americans offer Kid Rock, only Kid Rock and TPUSA are only as American as Donald Trump, which is “just barely,” and “not enough to end Progmerica.”

While TPUSA had a stage and a few dancers with the performers, Progmerica had a grand epic stage with a cast of thousands working in complex, organized, aesthetically pleasing harmonies with one another. One was slapped together; one took months to perfect. To the young, Progmerica offers a better future.

The problem as I see it is progressivism is the default moral code of MOST PEOPLE in America, including self-identifying conservatives, and DEFINITELY among self-identifying MAGAs. The most powerful counters to Progmerica today are progressive-Americans at best. Few self-stewarded Americans have any real power in this land today.

While they intellectually value individual liberty, individual rights, they operate under social justice moralities all the time. Think of how President Trump is ready to ban ALL Somalis from coming to America because of what’s going on in Minnesota. This is social justice, not American justice.

American justice would mean we assess individuals based on their individual experiences, not their social identities. President Trump is a social justice warrior, in part, though unlike Progmericans he walks more inconsistently in that he still also genuinely acts in an American justice spirit as well, as does TPUSA.

The reason for this is few people in this country fully understand what Americanism is, why it’s being threatened as a bridging standard for diverse peoples with unity, and what might be done to restore this bridging standard. Individual liberty was justified by the shared belief that an external creator has limited the power of the state to respect that creator’s sacred creations the way the creator intended.

The sacred creations are us, and self-stewardship is what the creator endows in all of us (grants us, allows us). This is free will, this is so men come to Christ consensually in love, not as automatons responding the only way they can.

This is the heart of our unity, and without it, Progmerica is fully unbounded and unmasked, and America and all its symbols will be burned, blown up, and buried, her history erased, her people forgotten (should the Progmerican project come into full fruition).

These battling Superbowl Halftime shows reveal the paltry state of America and what Americans’ next tactics should be to attempt to stem the tide of the ready-to-burst Progmerican nation that has been gestating within us for the last 100 plus years.

Americans are un-stewarded in their beliefs and thus are unaware of the progressive spirits that guide their thoughts. Progmericans can sense the time is soon for them to fully throw off the old cell their virus hijacked, and openly declare this land their own, come what may, for they may never have the chance they have now to make that happen.

COUNT THE COST OF YOUR BELIEF! Be Self-Stewarded:

‘“If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and COUNT THE COST, whether he has enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’”- Luke 14:26-30

The concentration of oppositional power is currently in the hands of grifting opportunists like TPUSA and narcissistic madmen like Donald Trump, who equates American greatness with material bounty, not spiritual soundness that binds authority, so the individual does not disappear in the social.

If you agree with that assessment, then you might agree that it is time for Americans to give up the institutions (for now) they cannot duplicate, including the ones that only Progressive-infested “conservatives” can duplicate. Sponsoring the pallid progressive-American imitations only supports Progmerica in the end.

It’s time for Americans to recognize what “social justice” really means so they can understand when they hear it in the mouths of conservatives like Trump, who slips into social justice spirits all the time.

Ideally, the Holy Spirit delivers us through a great revival of the fear and love of the Lord. This miraculous delivery would preserve Americanism under the previous justification, that the state cannot take authority over men that God himself has chosen not to. Free will must be preserved lest you be spitting into the face of God.

Outside of that, our bridging standard can only be justified pragmatically, amongst competing groups that agree they will limit their efforts to make their neighbors in their own image in exchange for being allowed to openly be wrong in public space. This agreement can only be made among groups that have no mandate to use violence to win converts or punish the unbeliever. It cannot include the groups that cannot come to this agreement.

We should remove ourselves from fellowships from groups and individuals that reject our Americanism, in whole or in part (as TPUSA and Trump do) and seek out fellowships with groups and individuals brave enough to allow themselves to lose a fair war of ideas against their neighbor.

This means we simply must sacrifice our pleasures, our joys that cannot be met by Americans. This includes America’s college and NFL football entertainment, for both are now vehicles of power of Progmerica, enemies of our republic, a republic that still lives within the hearts of we remaining Americans.

We cannot give up necessities provided by Progmericans or Progressive Americans, but we CAN give up the pleasures, the joys they alone provide us.

Bad Bunny and Kid Rock are competing for personal power disguised as causal power. They are both exploiting emotions, but Bad Bunny is providing the better product because, in part, his art is aligned with his Progmerican values while Kid Rock walks in both Progmerica and America, equally, completely oblivious to his un-stewarded habits of being that operate in progressive values, not American ones.

Neither man represents the rock of Americanism, individual liberty, but the Progmericans are TRUER to themselves than the “Americans” are, and as such are bound to produce a better product. Passion alone makes them better. They are both bad rocks performing bad rock (with Kid Rock’s being far worse).

This is not to say there aren’t Americans out there producing great art reflective of self-stewarded American values, it’s only to say that these Americans have been frozen out of the top slots of entertainment power by the Progmericans on one side, and the Kid Rockians on the other side, the progressive Americans (which are BARELY American at all).

  1. JAPAN GOES CONSERVATIVE AFTER LANDSLIDE ELECTION BURIES THE LEFT – A new Japan is about to emerge that is sure to frighten China after a landslide victory by Japan’s conservative party leaves leftists with only 5 seats in the parliament. The victory is credited to Japan’s Prime Minister, Sanae Takaichi, who appeared to take a risk by calling for a snap election soon after her party appointed her Prime Minister.

The gamble has paid off, leaving conservatives with a super majority that will most likely alter Japan’s passivist constitution. One of the major changes expected is ending Japan’s self-imposed limitations on military spending and operations. President Trump congratulated the PM, sharing on Truth Social, “Congratulations to Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and her Coalition on a LANDSLIDE Victory in today’s very important Vote. She is a highly respected and very popular Leader. Sanae’s bold and wise decision to call for an Election paid off big time.”

  1. AS UNEMPLOYMENT DROPS, SURGE IN JOBS SHOWS ECONOMY POISED FOR TAKEOFF – The U.S. created 130,000 jobs in January 2026 according to the Department of Labor, which is twice the number of jobs predicted to be created. The unemployment rate has also fallen to 4.3%. The jobs gains are all the stronger because, during this time there was a net loss in Government jobs of 34,000.
  2. DETRANSITIONER’S LAWSUIT VICTORY SETS PRECEDENT TRANS DOCTORS MIGHT NOT SURVIVE – At the end of last month, a malpractice lawsuit was ruled on that opens the door for more challenges to the medical industry’s rush to push patience into transgender surgeries and chemical “therapies.” The lawsuit awarded a 16-year-old girl $2 million for being hastened into life-altering “therapies.” After a couple of weeks have followed, the ruling appears to be setting off a potential wave of new lawsuits by more detransitioners that could price most transgender treatments out of the market.

More lawsuits could bankrupt transgender therapy programs that aggressively pushed the therapies by not clearly letting their patients know the cost of transitioning and also by lowering the previous standards for determining if this type of treatment is needed after all.

  1. CALIFORNIA’S ICE UNMASKING LAW CRUSHED BY CLINTON JUDGE – After California Governor Gavin Newsome (D) signed an illegal law forcing ICE agents to be unmasked to make it easier for his army of antifa revolutionaries to hunt and murder them, he was immediately shut down by Clinton-appointed U.S. District Judge Christian Snyder. The so-called “No Secret Police” act aims to help the DNC’s secret and street police, ANTIFA, enforce their unconstitutional “laws.” The judge says the law unfairly discriminates against Federal officers.

The judge did not address the underlying insurrectionist spirit behind the violent law. Attorney General Pam Bondi said of the ruling, “Law enforcement officers risk their lives every day to keep Americans safe, and they do not deserve to be doxed or harassed simply for carrying out their duties. California’s anti-law enforcement policies discriminate against the federal government and are designed to create risk for our agents.”

  1. DEI DYING IN CORPORATE BOARDROOMS, EXTREME LEFT ORG REPORTS – The far-left anti-human extortion group, Human Rights Campaign, is waving a red flag to alert its far-left anti-human base that their ideology of hate, fear, and fake hope, DEI, is dying. The organization reports only 131 Fortune 500 companies are participating in their extortion questionnaire called the “Corporate Equity Index.” The Index reads as demands, not questions, when you understand what HRC does, with the aid of the DNC-CCP and its corporate allies, to those who do not comply with their demands.
  2. ANTIFA LEADER ARRESTED BY DOJ – An Antifa leader, Kyle Wagner, 37, was arrested and charged with making federal threats and cyberstalking. The arrest comes after the Antifa leader proclaimed on numerous livestreams his intentions to start an open war against ICE. AG Pam Bondi said of the arrest, “This man allegedly doxxed and called for the murder of law enforcement officers, encouraged bloodshed in the streets, and proudly claimed affiliation with the terrorist organization Antifa before going on the run.”
  3. BIDEN’S MASS-MIGRANT PAROLE PROGRAM KILLED FOR 15 YEARS – The criminal use of the Department of Homeland Security’s parole authority to broadly allow mass undocumented invasion by foreigners has been struck down by Federal Judge T. Kent Wetherell. The judge oversaw a settlement with the State of Florida that bans the Biden loophole from being allowed to be used again by any administration within 15 years of the signing of the agreement.
  4. BENGHAZI ATTACK “MASTERMIND” CAPTURED – 14 years after the attack on a U.S. Embassy in Benghazi, Libya that left four Americans dead, the alleged mastermind of the attack, Zubayar al-Bakoush, has been arrested and transferred to American soil where he will face numerous charges in an American court, including first degree murder.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced, “In 2012, Islamist terrorists carried out an horrific attack on a U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya, murdering four Americans: Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, and Glen Doherty. For 14 years, their families suffered through the pain of devastating loss with no accountability,” Gabbard said. “President Donald Trump made clear that honoring their sacrifice to our nation meant accountability, and today one of the terrorists behind this attack will finally be brought to justice.”

  1. THE SAME WAPO EMPLOYEES THAT FUELED THE FLAMES OF CANCEL CULTURE ARE NOW CALLING THEIR FIRINGS “ILLEGAL” – The union representing the fired employees of the Washington Post is giving schadenfreude fans great grist as they claim the firings of the cancel brigade is “illegal.” The union declared, “When they came to work this morning — to continue the jobs they were hired to do — they were blocked from entering the building. Our members are still employees. We are in Status Quo, which means that these layoffs are illegal. Last night after working hours, our members who are being targeted for layoffs by the Washington Post were locked out of their work devices, platforms, and the Post building.”

The post reflects their fundamental lack of understanding of American law and their communist ignorance regarding PRIVATE PROPERTY. Their sense of socialist entitlement created a mask-off moment that Americans could clearly witness, only to resume with their lives, comforted with the fact that one Cancel Culture terror machine has been gutted from within. This is hardly enough to fully address the criminal actions of the DNC criminal media, but it is yet another major blow to the information terror machine of the DNC-CCP.

  1. BACKLASH FORCES AXIOS TO CHANGE INFO TERROR HEADLINE INTENDED TO INCITE VIOLENCE AGAINST ICE AGENTS – A recent Axios’ headline suggests that crime fell at historic levels in major U.S. cities “despite” Trump’s “crackdown,” not because of it. The headline was designed to protect the criminal press’ narrative that ICE agents are unconstitutional paramilitary Nazis destroying the nation.

To protect that libelous narrative, Americans are being gaslit to believe that somehow ICE agents are still sources of violence, not mostly preventers of it. The readers reacted so overwhelmingly that even the criminal terror outfit Axios had to retreat from its mask-off moment. This is our first documented incident of the Insurrectionist press being brought to heel by its own readership.

INTRODUCTION

Canada was struck with the news of a mass shooting that left 8 victims dead, and scores more injured. The dead included five students from the location of the second part of the mass shooting, Tumbler Ridge Secondary School, near Vancouver, Canada.

The shooter would then turn the gun on himself.

The motive for the shooting, so far, remains unclear. The shooter, Jesse van Rootselaar, was originally reported as a female shooter, but it would later be revealed “she” was a male presenting as a female.

It might turn out the motive for the shooting had nothing to do with the shooter’s transgenderism, but we suggest you could rightly assume it had something to do with it, though we would not recommend you make that conclusion until more information comes out (which might have by the time this report is published).

For this bellwether analysis, we want to look at this event in the context of Canada’s current governing spirit. We will bracket off the motive. What we want to consider is the promise Canada has offered to Canadians, that if they lay down their arms and shut their mouths in submission to the state orthodoxy, their lives will be safe from hate. Lose your guns, lose your tongues, and you will be safer.

They gave up Christ in the public square in part to protect the very person that murdered their children.

A. THE DETAILS

On February 10, 2026, 18-year-old Jesse van Rootselaar kicked off a killing spree in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, Canada. He killed his mother and his stepbrother at his residence, with a young female relative escaping. She ran to a neighbor to seek help, who then alerted the police. The shooting happened at 2:20PM. The police did not arrive until 15 minutes later.

While the police were going to the residence, Rootselaar was on his way to the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School, with a shotgun and a modified handgun. The school is a gun-free zone. There was no armed security. There were no armed teachers.

By the time the Rootselaar arrived at the school it was 2:30PM, just 10 minutes after he killed his mother and stepbrother. The shooting was reported at 2:32 PM, another team of officers arrived two minutes later. By the time the officers who were called to his residence arrived, he was already dead in the school.

Rootselaar would have just 4 minutes to do his worst. His victims were powerless to stop him. The police were also powerless to stop him. By the time they arrived, Rootselaar was already dead by suicide, but so were six others, one adult teacher and five students (three females and two males aged 12-17). Along with the dead were 27 more injured, mostly students.

The motivation for the killings is not clear, but Rootselaar has a years-long history of causing disturbances at his home, some of which involved firearms. At one point, law enforcement confiscated the weapons, but later returned them after a petition was started. The firearms do not appear to be owned by Rootselaar, however.

Rootselaar began the process of “transitioning” to a “female” four to six years ago (we have conflicting information on this point), at the age of 13. He was on anti-psychotic drugs, in addition to transitioning drugs at the time of the shooting. His transgendered status was concealed from the public as long as it could be by both the Canadian government and the international corporatist press.

While the motive is not clear, the presence of anti-psychotic drugs in the shooter has become a tragically well-earned trope of mass shootings that this event follows as well. His transgenderism as a factor is ambiguous, though one wonders if the transgender “solution” was masking a much deeper problem transitioning only made worse (as this writer suspects is happening a lot in the age of trans mania).

B. THE IMMEDIATE REPORTING

We asked Grok to give us the headlines that were immediately shared by the international corporatist press after the shooting, and Grok’s answer revealed these cherry-picked headlines:

  • CBC News: “10 dead, including suspect, following shooting in Tumbler Ridge
  • The Globe and Mail: “Ten killed, including suspect, in mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, B.C.”
  • Vancouver Sun: “LIVE: Nine dead, 27 injured in mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge
  • National Post: “Canada in shock after one of the country’s worst mass shootings
  • CTV News: “C. RCMP give an update in their investigation into a mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge
  • BBC News: “At least seven dead after school shooting in British Columbia, Canada, police say
  • The Guardian: “Canada shooting: 10 dead including suspect in attack on Tumbler Ridge high school, police say

All of these answers provided a pretty generic telling of the event, but what Grok gave me was not indicative of the REAL spirit international corporatist media chose to operate within.

After these headlines, Grok started listing headlines acknowledging the shooter was transgendered. Grok would leave one with the impression the international corporatist media acted responsibly, with no political agenda. However, that was not reality; we believe that was programming protecting the disenfranchised class over simply answering a question truthfully.

Here are some of the headlines we found when we did time-based searches:

  • Collingwood Today – “‘Beyond devastating’: 10 dead, including female suspect, in B.C. school shooting
  • MSN – “10 dead, including female suspect, in ‘devastating’ shootings at BC school and home.”
  • MSN – “Female Identified as Suspect in Worst Canada School Shooting in Decades That Killed 10 and Injured at Least 25
  • Reuters – “Ten dead, including female suspect, after Canada school shooting – as it happened

A Royal Mounted Police officer at a press conference just after the shooting referred to the shooter as a “woman.”

C. THE BACKGROUND

We have created a special news tag in our aggregation process called “Canada Soviet” to tag all the stories that cover Canada’s lurch into authoritarianism. A trans person in Canada has more personal power as a normal private citizen than most people have in America today. A trans person in Canada cannot have their identity challenged. A trans person in Canada can destroy competition with a false accusation that won’t dare be challenged lest the challenger face hate speech charges.

You can call Christ the devil in public, but you can’t call abortion murder.

As for guns, Canada has effectively criminalized gun defense, along with most gun possessions. The shooter violated Canada’s gun laws, yet was able to accomplish his dark deed, nonetheless.

  1. LEGAL TRANS PRIVILEGE – In June of 2017 Canada introduced the now-famous bill C-16, which launched psychologist Jordan Peterson into the stratosphere as he stood as one of the few Canadians warning against the intolerance pregnant in this bill.

The bill was an amendment to Canada’s Orwellian-named Human Rights Act, which sought to limit liberty in the name of protecting the disenfranchised from being insulted in public. This amendment added “gender identity or expression” as a protected expression that ALL Canadians must comply with, regardless of whether they believed men could become women or not.

The Criminal Code already protected certain groups from what it calls “hate propaganda.” This bill added transgenders to that protected class. In other words, it de facto ennobled the transgender class as a protected class that should no longer be expected to hear opinions that invalidated their assertions that a man could become a woman, a woman could be a man, or that genders even existed at all. If they said it, you better parrot it, end stop.

In January 2022, a bill that was passed in 2021 took effect, Bill C-4. That bill made it illegal to attempt to persuade anyone, including children, that they should be heterosexual or “cis” gendered (a pejorative attempting to both vilify conventional binary gender constructions and invalidate them).

The fact that the bill included a phrase most humans would consider hate speech at this point, “cis gendered” shows the futility in allowing the state to define what “hate” is (as if hate, in and of itself, is a bad thing, unless you want to argue that hating murder is evil).

These are the two major acts, though provinces and local governments have their own “protections” for the ennobled trans class (except in the case of Alberta, which seems to be fighting back against the ennobled trans class).

ED. NOTE: While we join our readers in their concern over “trans mania,” we hold the view that some people might very well need transgender “therapy.” We also want to make it clear the evidence for the rise in trans violence is ambiguous. The majority of transgendered people should not be stigmatized by the minority ‘bad actors.’ We believe in individual justice, not social justice, and that applies to transgendered people as well.

2. ANTI-GUN LAWS – Canada has some of the strictest anti-gun laws in the nation. It began in 1995, one year before the UK began the process of surrendering their guns.

The Firearms Act of 1995 added a host of new requirements for gun ownership, which included licensing, background checks, safety training, and rules that effectively made it illegal to use your gun to defend yourself in your own home (outside of the most bizarre circumstances).

The only non-restricted weapons Canadians can currently own are bolt-action rifles and pump action shotguns. Any weapon capable of semi-automatic firing is highly restricted or prohibited altogether.

In 2022, Canada’s Bill C-21 took effect, which put a freeze on the sale, purchase, transfer, or import of handguns. It also ended ALL conceal carry for civilians, with some limited open carry allowances which basically allowed Canadians to hunt with their non-semi-automatic long guns.

While an unidentified adult in his household was legally able to possess the firearms the shooter used to kill 8 people, the shooter was not. The shooter violated multiple gun laws, appeared to use limited-action firearms (still unconfirmed), and was yet able to kill 8 people and himself in the span of 14 minutes, and that included the time it took him to get to the school from his residence.

  1. ANTI-SPEECH LAWS – During our research, we used Grok to search for Canada’s anti-speech laws. Grok began its results for me with this dystopian, unreal statement: “Freedom of expression in Canada is protected as a fundamental freedom under section 2(b) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (part of the Constitution Act, 1982). This includes freedom of thought, belief, opinion, expression, and the press and other media of communication.”

What followed next was a complete disconnect from that opening statement.

Grok would “clarify,” not realizing (or being allowed to realize) that this next statement wholly invalidates the first one and makes Grok read like an Orwellian propagandist delivering the new definitions of the day and the new list of friends and enemies.

Grok “clarified,” “However, these rights are not absolute. Section 1 of the Charter allows ‘reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.’ Courts apply the Oakes test to assess such limits, requiring the objective to be pressing/substantial, the means rationally connected and minimally impairing, and the benefits outweighing the harm.”

Grok also buried the lead. In 1985, C-46 was passed, which created a new Criminal Code called “Hate Propaganda and Related Offences.” This bill was challenged in the courts where it was “validated” by their Supreme Court on numerous cases, the two key ones being R. v. Keegstra (1990) and Saskatchewan (Human Rights Commission) v. Whatcott (2013).

Here are some of the vaguer, and thus more disturbing parts of the criminal code (from Grok):

Section 319(1): Public incitement of hatred – Communicating statements in a public place that incite hatred against an identifiable group where likely to lead to a breach of the peace (up to 2 years).

Section 319(2): Wilful promotion of hatred – Communicating statements (other than in private conversation) that wilfully promote hatred against an identifiable group (up to 2 years). Defences include truth, public interest discussion, good faith religious opinion (under subsection 319(3)(b)), and good faith belief on religious grounds.

Section 319(2.1): Wilful promotion of antisemitism – Specifically condoning, denying, or downplaying the Holocaust (added in recent amendments; up to 2 years).

Had the shooter lived, he might “enjoy” the “extra” protections his ennobled class might soon receive should Bill C-9 pass. This bill hopes to remove religious exemptions from speech restrictions, as well as add new offenses for displaying hate symbols. It also seeks to eliminate the need for the Attorney General to consent to speech violation prosecutions. In other words, they want more people to be subject to their thought control, and they want to make it EASIER to prosecute them.

D. BELLWETHER ANALYSIS

  1. NOTE: This is a new feature we have created. Unlike a PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS, this type of analysis is about understanding the context of the “present,” not predicting what might come next. Unlike a SUMMARY, it is not simply a synthesis of the facts as a review, it is an analysis of the spirit of the whole event as a bellwether.

A somewhat simplistic, but mostly accurate timeline of events will show the kernel of Wokeness was most closely created by the Frankfurt School starting in the early 20s. The kernel of wokeness was born in Europe.

Under the label, “critical theory,” the notion of social justice over economic justice began to emerge. By the 60s, American leftists decided to exploit that path, having realized capitalism wasn’t going to collapse anytime soon, and, unlike their predictions, was continuing to offer greater prosperity to more people in society than communism ever did (or would).

Wokeness, long before we used the term, was infiltrating American academia, which in turn spread its wokeness to other nations. As it infiltrated direct government power, the American state began to export wokeness to the rest of the world. They offered cash to the compliant and interference (to put it mildly) to the non-compliant.

Unfortunately for Canada, they got our wokeness in spades. As our next-door neighbor, Canada was most affected by the U.S.’s new woke promotions.

In America, the battle for the spirit of the land continues, with wokeness currently taking major hits (but hardly dead). In other countries like Canada, the UK, and Australia, wokeness has ended their status as a traditional Western “democratic” power. There is no free speech in any of these lands.

Wokeness may have started in Europe, but America gave it international strength, poisoning the rest of the world with an ideology that hates its citizens. Yet, America is still holding out while the others seem to have fallen (at least for now).

Why is that? It is because America’s right to rule is based on the premise that we are endowed by an authority outside the state with certain rights, rights that enable us to define and choose our own paths to happiness and prosperity.

Canada and Australia are no longer directly under the rule of the British crown, so the monarchy does not justify their rule. For these two countries, the right to rule is from “popular sovereignty,” the approval of the people, which is just mob rule with extra steps if that is your own right to rule principle.

In Britian, the monarch is the final authority, not God, so there are no absolute restrictions on government power.

Canada, Australia, and Britain all quickly gutted the public of guns starting around the same time, the late 90s, as it became apparent that technology was beginning to advantage small-scale resistance over large-scale conquest.

After the guns fell, the tongue followed behind, in all three countries, with Canada and the UK fighting neck-and-neck to be the most Soviet western nation of them all.

Now, here Canadians sit, having been promised security in exchange for surrendering dangerous freedom but getting neither. They sit in a world in which the press and the government must lie about the basic facts of a shooter to protect a special class of people from free tongues, enslaving all, including the special class (which are now desperately dependent on the state to protect them from mean thoughts, a protection they’ve been propagandized to militantly expect).

The “security” through disarming your neighbors’ guns and tongues has made Canada fundamentally less safe than it was before. A madman grew up among them, indulged by the system, protected from reality (you have a mental illness, you’re not a girl), and medically conditioned to be predisposed to even greater psychotic breaks with reality.

While children’s bodies were yet cold, the “authorities” were doubling down on the toxic lie that this boy was a girl. They were probably more frightened of the authorities sending them to jail for violating the psychotic safe space of transgendered people than they were of anything that happened at that school.

This bellwether event shows what happens when a government is too afraid of its citizens to let them have the tools to defend their children from a 4-minute execution by a mentally ill child indulged by the same system that took Canadians’ guns away. They created the beast and they disarmed its victims.

For we Americans, this should compel us even more to resist any effort to confiscate our guns. Vast swathes of American land are occupied by Progmerican overlords who seek to do to us what Canada has done to its citizens, disarm us while they raise beasts to kill us.

BREAKING:

DEMOCRATS VOTE FOR GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN OVER ICE – The Democrats have voted against a DHS funding bill that effectively creates a government shutdown. They claim to be doing it to shut down ICE operations, even though it is clear ICE will NOT be affected by this shutdown. What WILL be shut down are services that are needed by people, including disaster relief from FEMA.

A. TRENDING

  1. EARLY ON, TRUMP WANTED EPSTEIN, MAXWELL PROSECUTED, RECORDS SHOW – Epstein court documents reveal President Trump was one of the first people to raise an alarm about Jeffrey Epstein. He did so in 2006 when he called the police to recommend that they investigate Jeffrey Epstein AND Gislaine Maxwell, whom he called evil. The transcript of the phone call reveals Trump suspected Maxwell of being Epstein’s “operative.” He also called her “evil.” The call happened shortly after the Epstein investigation began.
  2. AMERICA, UK LEADERSHIP STILL UNDER INCREASING EPSTEIN FILES SCRUTINY – Pam Bondi’s showdown with U.S. congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) highlights the growing GOP divide between those who think there’s something serious to the Epstein Files and those who don’t. President Trump’s disconnect from this issue appears to be leading his strongest supporters to want to follow the lead.

Thomas Massie isn’t the only congressmember pressing for a full disclose of the people involved in the “alleged” child sex trafficking and blackmailing for real political power ring, including Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Nancy Mace (R-SC), both of whom claim to have seen some of the unredacted names, names that are still powerful and well-known today.

Also connected to the Epstein files is the growing scandal in the UK that continues to threaten their Prime Minster, Keir Starmer, who continues to hold on even as top members of his cabinet have been forced to resign. His connection to the Epstein files is through allowing members of his cabinet, including his hand-picked U.S. ambassador, to continue to serve in government even after he KNEW they stayed connected to Epstein AFTER his conviction, a fact they had lied about to the public (but not to Starmer).

  1. XI SURVIVES COUP ATTEMPT, MAKES FIRST PUBLIC ADDRESS OF THE PURGE THAT FOLLOWED – Chairman Xi of China has finally publicly addressed the purge of most of his military leaders and political “allies” in response to what appears to have been a coup attempt by his second-in-command, Zhang Youxia. He addressed the military, stating, “The past year has been unusual and extraordinary, The People’s Army has deepened its political education, effectively addressed various risks and challenges and undergone revolutionary forging in the fight against corruption.”

While Xi has survived the coup, mobilizations within China suggest he has yet to fully restore stability. So far, none of the top spots have been replaced by anyone else. The purge leaves the military without seasoned Generals, and one of the few who has experienced combat, Youxia, is among the Generals that have been purged. As of right now, the conditions in China are still fluid by our assessment.

  1. AFTER CARTEL DRONE ATTACK, MEXICO APPROVES OF U.S. TROOPS ON THEIR SOIL – According to U.S. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy, the FAA had to avert a serious cartel drone attack on U.S. soil. The FAA shut down airspace around El Paso immediately to allow for a military response to the attack. The Secretary said “The FAA and DOW acted swiftly to address a cartel drone incursion. The threat has been neutralized, and there is no danger to commercial travel in the region. The restrictions have been lifted and normal flights are resuming.”

After the attack, Mexico’s government passed legislation signed by President Sheinbaum that will allow U.S. troops to enter Mexico to go after the cartels. The vote in the Senate was 105 for, 0 against, and one abstention. The ruling specifically allows U.S. Navy SEALs to operate on their territory in pursuit of the drug cartels.

  1. FOREIGN NATIONALS ARE FUNDING DNC INSURRECTIONIST OPERATIONS THROUGH NON-PROFIT FRAUD – Witnesses testifying at a House Ways and Means Committee hearing are claiming that foreign nationals are illegally sending millions (if not billions) of dollars to bankroll DNC insurrectionist organizations.

Capital Research Center President Scott Walker said of the testimonies, “It’s refreshing to have a hearing where all witnesses share strong agreement on a central point, namely, foreign money should be kept out of American politics. A lot of these [foreign funding] problems involve America’s nonprofit sector, which is traditionally a glory and a strength of this exceptional country. But foreigners abuse this sector — especially tools like fiscal sponsorship and donor-advised funds, which aren’t inherently bad things — in order to hide their influence ops.”

HOMAN ANNOUNCES END OF ICE MINNESOTA SURGE Border Czar Tom Homan announced, “With that, and success that has been made arresting public safety threats and other priorities since this surge operation began, as well as the unprecedented levels of coordination we have obtained from state officials and local law enforcement, I have proposed, and President Trump has concurred, that this surge operation conclude. A significant drawdown has already been underway this week and will continue through the next week.”

“I’m very pleased to report that this surge operation and our work here with state and local officials to improve coordination and achieve mutual goals, as well as our efforts to address issues of concern here on the ground, have yielded the successful results we… came here for… Overall, we made a lot of progress through extensive engagement, meeting with them and other key stakeholders, and it is expected that those engagements and discussions will continue, going forward, to enhance exchange of information and more coordination.”

He also announced the rescue of more than 3,000 lost immigrant children during the operation, which was marred from day one by an alleged DNC-foreign-funded insurrectionist operation intended to interfere with the lawful execution of a Presidential order.

  1. GUN-FREE CANADA HIT WITH SCHOOL MASS MURDER BY MALE PRESENTING AS FEMALE – A Canadian transgendered male who transitioned to female has killed 9 people and injured 25 more others, with the bulk of the killings and injuries happening at the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School. The school is a few minutes outside of Vancouver, Canada.

The police were there within 2 minutes, but the shooter had already killed 6 people at the school, then he killed himself. The school was not armed. Citizens are not allowed to effectively possess guns for self-defense in Canada anymore.

  1. PBS PANEL ACCUSES “HITLERIAN” ICE OF PLOTTING TO STEAL 2026 ELECTION – PBS led the charge in insurrectionist propaganda this week when it left Boston Globe Columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr and Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker essentially spin a conspiracy theory that the Hitlerian ICE agents are going to make sure the Republicans win the 2026 midterms and finalize their fascist masterplan. This week was filled with DNC criminal media info-terrorist attacks on Americans. No arrests have been made, so far.

Stohr threw out the libelous invective. She claimed, “… I’m concerned about call—not denying that ICE will show up at election stations, that the call for this increasing redistricting, mid-decade redistricting in states in order to try to game the system. Elections are supposed to be sacred in any functioning democracy. And that the president of the United States is the one making the call to disparage them and try to rig the system is really alarming.”

Parker added to the info-terrorist attack in what we believe is her effort to signal to the DNC’s Antifa Army to continue their murderous assault on American ICE agents, “ “And he can’t let it go because I think he’s taken a page from Mein Kampf, frankly, you know, the saying that if you say—tell a big lie often enough and repeat it, then people will believe it. And the theory was further refined by the propaganda head in Nazi Germany, Mr. Joseph Goebbels. And the idea is, apparently, it’s true that—they would know, I guess—that people will believe a big lie quicker than they will believe a small lie.”

  1. NATURALIZED “CITIZEN” DEMOCRAT POLITICIAN THREATENS TO ARREST AMERICANS IF PROGMERICANS WIN BACK THE WHITE HOUSE – Foreign-born naturalized citizen U.S. representative Shri Thanedar (D) made it clear to Americans if his foreign-favoring party, the DNC-CCP, wins back the White House in 2028, the GOP will face arrests.

He struggled in broken English, sounding like a CCP Chairman excoriating his American enemy, threatening the Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Rodney Scott, yelling, “You better hope you get pardoned because you will be held accountable for the absolute disregard of the law your agencies have shown over the past year. Your agencies have lost the trust of the American people, with millions taking to the streets to protect the illegal actions of your agencies. And that’s why I introduce a bill in the United States Congress to abolish ICE. ICE must be abolished.”

The DNC’s House leader, Hakeem Jeffries, echoed this violent threat, saying, “One thing to understand as people who are flirting with the Trump administration, or doing the bidding of the Trump administration, or engaging in the pay-to-play schemes of the Trump administration: The statute of limitations is five years. Donald Trump and this toxic administration will be long gone, but there will still be accountability to be had.”

  1. CANADA WANTS TO CRIMINALIZE FAMILY CONFLICT – Soviet Canada is looking to pass a bill that will essentially equip leftists to get their family members arrested if they don’t agree with their anti-human ideology. Bill C-16, the “Protecting Victims Act” would create a new classification of “crime” called “coercive or controlling conduct.” The bill appears to be intended to force Canadians to comply with the party’s orthodoxy at home or else be turned into the police by your own family members. The bill should be renamed the Secret Police bill.

Conservative MP Leslyn Lewis warned his constituents of the dark bill, telling them, “Do you think the government should criminalize everyday interactions in your home with your family? If not, you should read Bill C-16. The bill creates new offences… which are deeply concerning for normal, loving family interactions, based on a ‘pattern of coercive or controlling conduct,’ even when no violence, threats, or illegal acts occur. It criminalizes a pattern of otherwise lawful and often common behaviour that may later be perceived as threatening by an intimate partner.”

“If Balak should give me his house full of silver and gold, I would not be able to go beyond the word of the Lord, to do either good or bad of my own will. What the Lord speaks, that will I speak? And now, behold, I am going to my people. Come, I will let you know what this people will do to your people in the latter days.”-

Numbers 24:13-14

INTRODUCTION

Just as we were wrapping up our monthly MIA report for January 2026, news broke that the Department of Justice had released over 3 million documents related to the massive conspiracy surrounding the now-deceased Jeffrey Epstein. This was a sort of prophetic utterance on the land from the highest echelons of power. It was meant for a curse, a curse by omission. It kept the black hole mystery alive but offered no clear justice. It keeps the land unsatisfied and unsecure.

When the Israelites were about to enter into the promised land, Balaam of Peor, a prophet of Ba’al, was enticing Israelites to worship the god that calls you to sacrifice your child. He was preparing to give a curse to the Israelites, but instead, God compelled him to give them a blessing, which he did.

Balaam’s reward was to later be killed by Joshua for the crime he committed of bringing Israelites to worship Ba’al.

The Israelites were about to enter their Promised Land, which was a Hope Exit of their time from Egyptian and Wilderness bondage when a curse was about to befall them. But that curse was turned into a blessing by the supernatural intervention of God, who was compelled to speak blessings on Israel and curses on Moab.

We Americans are about to enter our Hope Exit (hopefully) as well, as the division between American and Progmerican becomes clearer and clearer over the coming months. Just as we face this challenge, we see once again the Ba’al priests protected by the establishment. It seems they hold the high places still and they mean to protect their child-sacrificing god, come what may.

Yet, even as Balaam hoped to pronounce a curse with his mountaintop declarations, what might have been meant as a form of a curse on the land in the Epstein files release will yet be a blessing on the land, though it might be difficult to see that now.

After the releases, the partisan information warriors scampered off to their platforms and produced agit prop and content marketing condemning the other and protecting the ingroup. There were some, mostly outside of the Progmerican left (but not exclusively), that took measured wait-and-see takes, but, for the most part, Trump was exonerated or condemned, Bill Clinton was exonerated or condemned. There was little ground in between being created by the info warriors in the partisan camps.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche made the announcement, not Attorney General Pam Bondi, which might be telling in and of itself. He gave a measured statement, exclaiming these documents only represented half of the documents the government had yet not released. He claimed these files were held back because they identified victims, exposed medical files, had child pornographic images, or showed death, or showed abuse.

Right from the start he made it clear we were getting a sanitized look at the madness, which might be to our favor, but then again, it might be a demon we need to look at to see that the demon was fed by us as well. THIS might lead us to the repentance we have yet, as a nation, to experience, the repentance against our worshiping of Ba’al, the god who calls a nation to sacrifice their children to his fire.

Remember, many of the highest-level leaders of our country, in all sectors of life, were part of this child rape-murder-sacrifice-torture cabal. None, so far, have faced criminal consequence for their actions. Most of them continue to walk amongst us, our masters, dictating our terms of existence to us from behind a veil of moral supremacism concealing child sacrifice at its heart.

If it’s not them, it’s their adult children, who, by now, have most likely been initiated into the family affair, the family “business.”

These same leaders were the ones making deals with China that sold our vitality to the Chinese Communist Party for a promise of an Eldorado that would never come (the burgeoning consumer class in China that would one day dwarf America’s).

While they sold our vocations to China, at home they were browbeating us with a morality they used to justify corporate censorship and the unpersoning of the unorthodox. While they were browbeating us in public, in private, they were stealing life to satisfy Ba’al’s fire within them all, a fire that is never quenched, which is an eternal torment to the worm that never dies.

The documents were only released in what we imagine is a “minimal” adherence to a law ordering the DOJ to release the Epstein Files. The Deputy Attorney General stated, “We comply with the act, and there is no ‘protect President Trump.’ We didn’t protect or not protect anybody.”

The statement itself is a minimal affirmation of the Act, which would support our theory the DOJ “minimally” complied with the law. As for the claim they didn’t protect anyone, let us see if we find this statement to be accurate after our analysis.

It should be noted that this release was six weeks past the due date outlined in the November 19, 2025 Act signed into law by President Donald Trump.

The releases include 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. The two biggest names everyone was looking for, Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, failed to deliver the proverbial smoking gun, as these releases largely did (with some noted exceptions).

First, we will look at the two biggest names and what these Epstein Files say about them, then in general at who was most damaged and who escaped any serious harm, and finally we’ll analyze what this type of release tells us about the Reality of Power at the global scale, behind closed doors, where the children are most likely still being used as elixirs of youth and deification.

A. DONALD TRUMP

Shortly after the Epstein Files release, President Donald Trump told the press on Air Force One, “I didn’t see (the files) myself, but I was told by some very important people that not only does it absolve me, it’s the opposite of what people were hoping.”

He was referring specifically to what he alleges the Epstein Files show, a conspiracy between Jeffrey Epstein and author Michael Wolff to besmirch Trump’s name out of revenge. This charge has some suggestions through the email correspondence between Wolff and Epstein that might corroborate that claim, but there is no smoking guns affirming the claim. Trump has threatened to sue Wolff, who expressed no alleged fear at such possibility.

Progmerican Info Warriors have taken to sharing a meme that says “Donald Trump was mentioned more times in the Epstein Files than Jesus was mentioned in the Bible.” As usual, category “errors” abound in that narrative, the first of which is that one category is the Holy Word of God, and the other category is criminal child sex trafficking investigation files.

The meme itself reveals that the Progmericans have no hoped-for smoking gun from the Epstein files. The most damaging files are anonymous complaints that are filled with horrifying details. However, most of the other high-profile people, including Bill Clinton, suffer from this same circumstance.  These are mostly unsubstantiated claims by anonymous sources that were either followed up on and ruled out as uncredible or ruled out as uncredible from the start.

The “best” attack the left had was to malapropistically use Christ as a bludgeon against Trump’s presumed Christian base. Not understanding scripture at all, they had no idea such comparisons would ring hollow, especially for those who hold to the rather orthodox belief that ALL of scripture points to Christ. Where His name is not spoken, the Word yet points to Him.

It also cheapens the profundity and sacredness of scripture by comparing it to child pornographic criminal records. THIS was not by accident.

While the DOJ says Trump has been mentioned over 5,000 times in the files, Bill Clinton’s number of mentions hasn’t been released. When you do a search for Bill Clinton in the DOJ’s Epstein Files library, you get 1,230 mentions. When you do a search for Donald Trump, you get 1,478 results.

B. BILL CLINTON

Bill Clinton will find nothing even suggesting an exoneration like President Trump did in this release, nor was there a smoking gun condemning him. The evidence against him still remains circumstantial, which includes the new photos of him with Jeffrey Epstein, including some with young women, sometimes in questionable (but not obviously so) positions.

When the U.S. House Oversight Committee subpoenaed both Bill Clinton and his wife Hillary to testify under oath, the Clintons initially refused. Now, they have agreed, in principle, to testify in the face of potential criminal charges of contempt for continuing to refuse to comply to the subpoena.

Perhaps the most damaging evidence against the Clintons, in general, is Jeffrey Epstein’s deposition in 2016 when he invoked the Fifth Amendment numerous times to avoid answering questions about the nature of his involvement with Bill Clinton and the Clinton Foundation. Outside of that, this release introduced no real new information about the Clintons and their relationship to Jeffrey Epstein.

C. THOSE MOST AFFECTED

This category excludes, of course, the ones obviously most affected from this whole operation (one probably still going on in one way, shape, or form), the victims of these little gods, the men and women consuming the future to preserve the illusion of the eternal now.

  1. KIER STARMER – The UK Prime Minister was not originally on this list, but circumstances have changed. Momentum continues to grow for the PM to resign after it was revealed Starmer KNEW about Peter Mandelson’s connections to Jeffrey Epstein BEFORE he approved of Mandelson becoming the U.S. ambassador.

His own intelligence service flagged Mandelson, but Starmer overruled the flag. The only reason this was discovered was because the second person on this list, Peter Mandelson, was exposed in the Epstein Files in a way that led British authorities to discover this fact.

  1. PETER MANDELSON – After the Epstein Files were released, Peter Mandelson was exposed as having leaked sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein that could result in criminal charges. The fallout was immediate, as Mandelson was forced to resign from the Labour Party and from the House of Lords. He had already been forced to resign as the UK ambassador to the U.S. It was the notification from the Epstein Files that Mandelson had leaked this information that led to an investigation exposing the initial flag by the intelligence community on Mandelson and Starmer’s direct override of the flag.
  2. MIROSLAV LAJCAK – Slovakia’s National Security Adviser was forced to resign after the Epstein files release revealed he had numerous parties and meetings with Epstein back in 2018. The opposition party pounced on the releases, while Lajcak claimed he had done no wrong.
  3. STEVE TISCH – The Co-owner of the New York Giants, Steve Tisch, showed up in this new batch release 400 times, and that includes emails from him using terms like “working girl” that made it highly probable he was referring to sexual activity, though not underage activity.

While the NFL has announced plans to investigate Steve Tish, so far, he hasn’t been forced to resign, nor has he offered to.

  1. BILL CLINTON – While no smoking gun was revealed in the release, they did help to fuel the House Oversight Committee’s efforts to get the Clintons to testify under oath (something they wanted to do for some time).
  2. OTHERS – Some lesser affected include Harvey Weinstein, Leon Black, Casey Wasserman, and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick. The last one is most noteworthy, with Lutnick showing up for an Epstein Island lunch visit years after he claimed he last contacted Epstein.

ED.NOTE: We consider one Democrat hard hit by the Epstein Files release, Stacey Plaskett, a minor actor. What she has alleged to do, text Jeffrey Epstein during U.S. House hearings, indicts the system. Her removal as an actor, however, is almost inconsequential.

While Donald Trump doesn’t appear to have the clear exoneration he claims, he has taken no real damage beyond what he’s already received from his handling of the Epstein files in general.

D. WHAT’S MISSING

At the now culturally irrelevant Grammy Awards, British actor and comedian Trevor Noah made a joke about Donald Trump, saying, “That’s a Grammy that every artist wants — almost as much as Trump wants Greenland. Which makes sense because, since Epstein’s gone, he needs a new island to hang out with Bill Clinton. I told you, it’s my last year! What are you going to do about it?”

Upon hearing this, President Trump responded on Truth Social, “The host, Trevor Noah, whoever he may be, is almost as bad as Jimmy Kimmel at the Low Ratings Academy Awards. I can’t speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight’s false and defamatory statement, have never been accused of being there, not even by the Fake News Media. Noah, a total loser, better get his facts straight, and get them straight fast. It looks like I’ll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an M.C., and suing him for plenty$. Ask Little George Slopadopolus and others how that all worked out. Also, ask CBS!” added Trump. “Get ready, Noah, I’m going to have some fun with you!”

This exchange right here might be the most amount of action these file releases have generated far. A far-left anti-American British citizen on an American television show to an American audience made a joke about a former and current President going to an island that is known for child rape (and probably child murder as well).

The CURRENT President responded to this jokester by threatening to sue him, demonstrating a critical unawareness of basic first amendment constitutional law, or an indifference to it. Either way, the most dramatic exchange to come after this mega-release turns out to be between an anti-American agit prop activist properly exploiting American freedom and the sitting President not properly understanding it.

What’s missing is evidence that leads to criminal prosecution for anyone, which we can only surmise includes a high proportion of leaders in all segments of society. Hundreds, if not thousands, of powerful men and women who participated in consuming children to satisfy their little god fires, are still among us, still holding social, cultural, political, and even sacred leadership and gatekeeping positions.

What’s missing is accountability, what’s missing is a transparent assurance the operation is actually shut down and is not being continued with different Epsteins and Maxwells.

E. THE CASE FOR SEEING MORE

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche let us know this release was only half of the files the DOJ still has. We suggested he complied as minimally as he thought he could get away with, and the fruit of this release suggests to us he wasn’t being truthful when he said he wasn’t protecting anyone.

We don’t presume he is protecting President Trump, or NOT protecting President Trump. We don’t presume Trump is guilty beyond turning a blind eye to something he AT LEAST should have figured out a lot sooner than he did (if he’s even guilty of that).

We don’t even suggest this for President Clinton as well. For all we know, both these men could be innocent. For all we know, both these men could be guilty of comparable crimes.

Blanche revealed the released files did not include those files that showed child pornographic images, or showed death, or showed abuse. He also cited medical records concerns and victim identities; both seem credible enough. However, those first three categories don’t, especially because sensitive areas can be blurred to at least expose the criminal, something we must assume has already been done, but led to no arrests.

As stated above, we have no idea who walks among us that is part of this Satanic cult, and the cost of shocking Americans with the awful sins of our leaders is overshadowed by the much costlier consequence of continuing to protect the criminals of Epstein Island. Protect no one, not even Donald Trump (if it’s needed at all).

Failure to let Americans see the horrifying truth will only further erode the state’s legitimacy of rule, which is already on life support as it is. Release the Kraken, come what may, for the guilty can no longer be protected if the state in its current form (officially still American) hopes to continue to exist.

SUMMARY

The Department of Justice, under the direction of Pam Bondi, did the minimum it felt it had to do to at least give the political leadership of both parties plausible deniability that yet did not remove the Epstein fangs pointed at one another.

The goal here, it would seem, was to sustain the status quo between the real competing factions. These competing main factions are Trump’s elites now hedging their bets on the China model and leaning towards an America-lite model, and the “China Model through the Woke Vehicle of Power” elites who have been the center of power until recently.

We see here King Kong versus Godzilla, fighting over our city, with the Epstein files being performative missiles shot off now and then by the city security forces, who assure us the monsters are under control. We Americans find ourselves rooting for King Kong, the American-like monster, for at least this monster won’t completely destroy our city, whereas we KNOW Godzilla wants to destroy us completely.

We have a real chance in the post-Kong victory world to fully live out our Americanism. We have little chance to fully live out our Americanism if Godzilla wins. Still, we see the monster that King Kong is clearly for ourselves, and we are not prepared to bend our knee to him anymore than we would be prepared to bend our knee to Godzilla. Or so the metaphor goes.

PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS

The latest attempt by the Trump administration and the DNC to placate the masses without giving too much safe harbor to the enemy has served only to delay the soon-to-be louder voices demanding the real damaging files get released, come what may.

We can’t imagine anyone seriously thought this would put the Epstein files to bed, and possibly that was never the intended outcome. For as much as we want to know the full truth of the child sex ring designed to blackmail thought leaders in multiple countries, we also understand the black hole mystery that is the Epstein Files.

This black hole mystery can gobble up minds, resources, that might otherwise have discovered practical paths to blunt centralized control over human action. This is not to suggest the effort to expose the truth shouldn’t continue, but only that the continuation of this black hole mystery is not completely disadvantageous to the elites.

This is especially true of the elites who continue to be part of the blackmailers group, not the blackmailed leaders group Clinton, Trump, etc., are candidates for being in. The blackmailers have every reason for the mystery to continue, and our passion to continue to be absorbed by it, for, even as we speak, most likely they’ve long moved on to their new centers of child sacrifice.

We always allow for God’s intervention, but outside of that, this black hole mystery is set to continue at least for another year, maybe longer.

We doubt the Clinton hearings will yield much more than body language videos and montages of “I plea the Fifth,” which is assuming the hearings happen at all, something far from certain at this point. If they do, the Clintons will try to look hard and determined in the same way Hillary did during the Benghazi hearings (presaging Trump).

Trump has standardized the bluster, the WWE promotion-style savaging, which the Clintons will try to manifest in their outfits and their demeanor.

They will address the Republicans curtly, with a tinge of contempt. Bill could be a wildcard if he gets caught in a logic trap and says more than he should. The DNC criminal media will cover them with plaudits and heap shame on the Republicans daring to question their integrity.

The press will carry headlines comparing Trump’s 5K mentions to Bill’s “fewer” mentions as proof this is merely a political witch hunt. The girls at the View may offer this as proof that the Department of Justice is protecting Donald Trump by going after the Clintons to distract them from Trump, who, after all, is mentioned more

The net result will be a blunting of the Epstein Files as a uniquely Republican or Democrat problem, which is not a good overall net result for America, because it means less creators will find incentives in producing content keeping the pressure on these people to release files (since it doesn’t exclusively hurt the other faction).

On one hand this might be good if those same creators start showing their audiences how to build Americanist communities right where they live, starting in their own homes. But this seems less likely, as that type of content is not nearly as monetizable as Epstein content that eviscerates the opposing faction.

On the other hand, if this is swept under the rug, it will only embolden the elites to do more, which means more victims than ever before, for surely, they haven’t stopped Jeffrey Epstein’s work. What this means is they haven’t stopped offering children for power to the people who will still rule over us as if WE were the ones that needed THEIR moral authority for our lives to be “good.”

There is a Goldilocks zone for our engagement with this black hole mystery, and it’s not silence or indifference, nor is it where the bulk of our energies should be spent.

The blackmailers would ultimately be happy with either/or extreme, total obsession that saps restorative energies to total crickets allowing the conspiracy to operate in silence. The blackmailers prefer to see the pendulum swing wildly from the obsession extreme to the cricket extreme. This assures the blackmailed still feel threatened while also assuring the blackmailers continue to remain invisible (as they mostly still are).

A consistent, steady approach to investigating the Epstein files is what is needed amongst us Americans (see Whitney Webb), but only a handful of us.

Unless a brave whistleblower manages to get the irrefutable proof of the dark sins of our leaders, expect the black hole mystery of the Epstein Files to continue to burn, for good and for ill, against a backdrop of an America struggling to find her people amongst peoples who have long ago forgotten what America is.

Our ability to confront these sins, to bring to account the main criminals, will most likely be what finally determines if the spirit of Americanism prevails in this land or the spirit of Progmericanism, child sacrifice, prevails in this land.

The Epstein Files release has not fooled the Americans, it is only helping us to clarify whose clearly with us and whose clearly against us. In other words, the Epstein Files release is already proving to be a blessing, not the curse it was intended to be. If you are too partisan in your defense of ANY suspected politician, including Trump, we have reason to question your Americanist credentials.

Will Ba’al replace Christ, officially, as the centerpiece of the “new Progmerican republic” or will Christ remain muted under an American-lite MAGA banner, or will Christ be unbounded in a restored Americanist nation? So far, the release hasn’t had its intended results, which bodes well for the Americanists.

  1. DNC INSURRECTION SHOWS SIGNS OF BECOMING MORE VIOLENT, AS PUBLIC SCHOOLS RECRUIT CHILDREN INTO THE DNC INSURRECTIONIST ARMY – While the violence is dying down in Minnesota after Trump announced a draw-down and a “gentler” approach to deporting illegal aliens, insurrectionist government teachers are using their government powers to force children into the battlefield. As the child crusades of the DNC start, the injuries are starting to pile up.

Support for the deportations is only increasing as the DNC criminal media’s effective influencing power continues to grow weaker and weaker every day. Violent rhetoric targeting ICE officials and Republicans by DNC leaders is only continuing, and it’s producing more assassination attempts, assaults, and death threats by insurrectionist DNC operatives every day.

  1. EPSTEIN FILES DUMP HURTS UK MORE THAN U.S. – The fallout from the Epstein Files data dump, so far, has been far worse in the UK, where their Prime Minister faces growing calls to resign from his own party members, than in the U.S. where no major figures took serious hits. To read more about the Epstein Files, read our report, A Tale of Three Million Epstein Files, on pg. 2.

  1. SCOTUS HELPS DEMS IN 2026 WITH CALIFORNIA GERRYMANDERING APPROVAL – The U.S. Supreme Court has officially approved the racist gerrymandered California map created by the DNC, with not one conservative judge dissenting. The ruling means anything goes as far as gerrymandering is concerned, and other states are sure to follow, both blue and red. SCOTUS offered no comment in their approval.
  2. TRUMP SIGNS UNCLEAN CR BILL THAT DOESN’T INCLUDE VOTER ID – President Donald Trump has ended the four-day partial government shutdown by signing yet another continuing resolution rather than a full budget. The bill includes funding for DNC projects, including USAID funding, but preserves additional funding for ICE. More importantly, it doesn’t include a Voter ID requirement as some republicans were pushing for. It passed the Senate 71-20, and the House 217-214. The total budget for the bill is $1.65 trillion.
  3. DNC TEXAS WIN REDUCES EFFECTIVE GOP HOUSE MAJORITY TO ONE – Christian Menefee’s unexpected special U.S. House election victory in a GOP-majority Texas district has taken the GOP majority in the House down to 218-214. This means that if just more than TWO GOP representative fail to vote the party line, this produces a 216-216 tie. This brings the effective majority down to just one.

The circumstances of the win for the DNC in Texas have yet to be analyzed, but initial evidence suggests voter turnout on the GOP side led to the unexpected win. If so, the seat is sure to flip back to the GOP in a few months; if not, this is a bellwether worth noting.

  1. IRANIANS’ “HELP IS ON THE WAY” PROMISE BY TRUMP IS FADING IN QATAR – President Donald Trump’s promise to Iranian protestors that “help is on the way” has now been followed up by peace talks with the regime that murdered 30,000 plus Iranians for whom help never came. Even as Iran has hijacked two oil tankers and kidnapped the sailors, the President continues to go forward with the peace talks in Qatar that have just begun.

  1. FBI DISCOVERS ANOTHER CCP BIOLAB IN U.S., DNC MEDIA IGNORES STORY – The DNC criminal media have chosen to ignore a story about another CCP Biolab discovered in the U.S. The biolab was discovered in Reno, Nevada. It had CCP-related documents in it. The only corporate news outlet that covered the story was ABC News, who omitted any references to the CCP in their report.

They summarized their report, claiming “A law enforcement source has told ABC News they took 1,000 items from the home, including vials of unknown substances, some labeled in Mandarin Chinese. The property manager, Ori Solomon, now under arrest facing both federal and state charges, including disposing of hazardous waste consistent with biological agents. The homeowner is a Chinese national arrested in 2023 after authorities in Reedley, California said he operated an illegal biological lab that was funded by Chinese banks. He’s pleaded not guilty. David, records show that homeowner has two dozen properties that ABC News sources say are now being searched.”

  1. TRUMP PUSHES FOR NATIONAL GOP MIDTERM CONVENTION – President Donald Trump is hoping to use RNC power to rally for a GOP midterm win by creating a National Midterm Convention event. Bylaws have recently been changed to allow for this event to happen. The target for the event is late summer to early fall of this year. So far, Las Vegas and Dallas have been mentioned as possibilities. This comes on the heels of Trump also throwing out the idea of having “Nationalized Elections,” which is already getting pushback even from his own base.

  1. BOASBERG GETS REPRIEVE FROM OBAMA JUDGE – An Obama-appointed Judge has thrown out the Department of Justice’s misconduct complaint against U.S. District Justice James Boasberg, the symbol of Progmerican judicial insurrection in the American republic. The justice was accused of trying to inappropriately influence Chief Justice John Roberts, telling him before Trump retook office in 2025 that he would “disregard rulings of federal courts” to “trigger a constitutional crisis.”

Chief Judge of the U.S. Sixth Circuit Jeffrey S. Sutton declared in his ruling, “A recycling of unadorned allegations with no reference to a source does not corroborate them. And a repetition of uncorroborated statements rarely supplies a basis for a valid misconduct complaint.”

UKRAINE’S ENERGY CEASEFIRE LASTS A COUPLE OF HOURS – A few hours after President Donald J Trump announced an energy ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, Putin appears to have launched a massive attack using drones and ballistic missiles targeting the Kyiv energy infrastructure. This comes ahead of a scheduled new round of U.S.-brokered peace talks in Abu Dhabi that have begun this week.

CHINA MAKES MOVE TO KILL U.S. GLOBAL RESERVE CURRENCY MONOPOLY – As Chairman Xi struggles to hold on to power at home, abroad he’s flexing his economic muscle, making a call for the Chinese Yuan to join the U.S. dollar as becoming a global reserve currency. The comments were from 2024, but were just released now, in conjunction with China’s European campaign, which includes the UK, where Xi won major concessions and territory in central London to build a massive spy center.

  1. PERSECUTING CHRISTIANS HAS NEVER BEEN MORE POPULAR – Apparently, the season for persecuting Christians worldwide has never been fuller than it is now. According to Open Doors USA, the amount of documented acts of violence against Christians for their beliefs has been steadily increasing. This year, it hit 388 million, surpassing last year’s number by more than 8 million. Last year was a record high, so this year is as well.

Ryan Brown, chief executive officer of Open Doors US stated, “We continue to see a multi-year pattern where persecution is expanding.” Some of the major hotspots of expansion include Nigeria, Somalia, Sudan, Iran, India, Yemen, and China. Perhaps America may soon need to be added to this list.

  1. JESUS, DOGS IN UK CROSSHAIRS TO APPEASE ALLAH – In a bid to make Muslims feel comfortable in a predominantly Christian country, the United Kingdom’s government is seeking to protect them from a “Walk with Jesus” walk, telling the organization they’re not banning the event, they’re just not allowing it in White Chapel because Muslims.

The Metropolitan Police of London stated, “We have encouraged UKIP to consider the very real likelihood that their presence in Whitechapel could lead to serious disruption or serious disorder and to consider an alternative proposal. We are not saying that the UKIP protest, in isolation, will be disorderly. But we do know that many will find it provocative and that provocation is likely to lead to an adverse local reaction. We reasonably believe, based on the information available and on previous similar incidents, that the coming together of the UKIP protest with opposing groups who are hostile to its presence would be highly likely to lead to violence and serious disorder.”

The government is also doing a study on how to reduce whiteness in rural Britain to appeal to more non-whites coming in to visit and to move in and make the land their own. It seems the pet dog is the symbol of that colonizing white spirit, and as such the UK is looking into ways to curb dog ownership and public dog possession so that the incoming Muslims don’t feel colonized by the white devil.

  1. CHINA’S OWN NUMBERS SHOW BIRTH RATE COLLAPSE AND DEATH RATE EXPLOSION – According to China’s own numbers, the country’s birth rate hit 5.63 births per 1,000 people, a rate not seen since 1949. On the opposite side of the scale, China’s death rate hit 8.04 per people, which is up from 2024’s 7.76 deaths per 1000.

The death rate in 2025 exceeds the WORST death rates during the pandemic years, with 2024 ALSO exceeding those numbers. One major factor pushing the death rate up is simply China’s aging population. Over 23% of Chinese citizens are over the age of 60. Remember, these are China’s own reported numbers. There is growing skepticism about the population size of China, as well as to the extent of the unexplained deaths that have been happening in China (none which can be fully substantiated).

  1. CANADA TO BEGIN GUN CONFISCATIONS IN OCTOBER 2026 – After 5 years of having the “opportunity” to turn in their no-no guns and get paid in return, the time limit is running out. While the exact numbers are hard to find, the fact that the government has already extended the time limit three times tell you they’ve gotten themselves into an unenforceable situation, they lack the power to confiscate all the guns that haven’t been voluntarily turned in already.

Blair Hagen, an executive with the National Firearms Association, said the Canadian government has more problems than just non-compliance, saying, “We’re finding that they’re running into a lot of compliance issues. They have no idea where [the guns are] or who has them. So it’s proving to be a very, very difficult situation for the government.”

The man, Jerry Rodriguez, is suing California Dr. Remy Coeytaux who allegedly illegally mailed the drug, mifepristone, to the mother’s now-estranged husband. The complaint reads, “Coeytaux directly committed murder under section 19.02(b)(1) because he ‘intentionally and knowingly caused the death’ of Mr. Rodriguez’s unborn child by delivering abortion pills that he knew would be used in an illegal self-managed abortion.”

“The bleak truth is that, under normal conditions, most of North America and Europe are buried under about 1.5km of ice. This bitterly frigid climate is interrupted occasionally by brief warm interglacials, typically lasting less than 10,000 years. The interglacial we have enjoyed throughout recorded human history, called the Holocene, began 11,000 years ago, so the ice is overdue, Chapman wrote. All those urging action to curb global warming need to take off the blinkers and give some thought to what we should do if we are facing global cooling instead.”Philip K. Chapman

  1. THE ICE

Hopefully, you remember our last Riqueday Castle update. In that update, we shared the news we had healthcare issues that delayed our work on the castle. With winter coming in a land known for harsh winters (by our American standards), we knew our serious work would have to be delayed until the Spring thaw.

During this delay, we’ve been checking up on our Castle, keeping the sidewalks cleared, doing basic maintenance and care. Unfortunately, there are gaps where the castle isn’t being monitored, but never more than one week.

During one of those times, a deep freeze hit the region over a 3-day period.  Our castle was hit by an ice storm at a time when no-one was around to monitor it. Over the course of those three days, a heating coil break would lead to our steam heating system getting iced. The full damages within are not clear, though they appear limited to pipes and not other essential equipment (save for two heat registers). We may be looking at damages as high as $10k and as low as $1k.

We were fortunate that our heating system’s water valves were turned off, meaning the damage was limited because there was only a small amount of water in the system. As we were planning on activating our heating system, we hadn’t yet drained the system (that was going to be done by our service company only a week after the ice storm hit).

The news was devastating, but we can certainly overcome this setback. We were not alone, unfortunately, as many others in the town had heating system and plumbing damage as well.

When the heating and cooling company completed their investigation, the CEO of the company called Bill to let him know he’s heard of what we’re trying to do (about our castle project) and a lot of people in the town are cheering us on. He assured Bill they will work with us however they can to make this is as painless for us as possible.

We knew that serious work on the Castle would not, could not resume until Spring, now that’s definite.

We were hoping to have our first “From the Belltower” show FROM our belltower (where our studio is mostly completed), but that will not be the case due to this unforeseen event. The show is still scheduled to air February 2nd, 2026, at noon ET on Facebook (here) and YouTube (here). Our YouTube channel has just been created so we are starting off with 2 subscribers (please subscribe). This first episode will feature Paul Gordon Collier, the editor, but future episodes will feature both Paul and Publisher Bill Collier. We will include a link to the YouTube version of the show on the last page (the archive page).

We also had an unexpected tax bill. It seems there were a series of clerical errors that led to our bill being sent to the previous owner. Fortunately, we made the discovery a day before the bill was due, and fortunately we had the funds to pay it (it was over $4k).

  1. THE WORD

This season has been a test in many ways, but we are committed to walking through faith towards our goal of building a Hope Exit castle that can be a model for others to learn from (through our errors and our successes).

What I hope for is that our castle becomes covered in the Word of God, in spirit and in material. I hope it becomes, in part, a hub for whole-bible literacy that manifests in the lives of our community, which has come together to live out that individual and shared meditation on the whole Word in fulfilment of the Great Commandment and the Great Commission.

But that’s just one dream of many we hope to see fulfilled through our castle. My wife has her dreams, brother Bill has his, and others have dreams we also hope to enable through our castle.

All of us involved have different callings and passions; mine is to facilitate whole-bible literacy. To give you a sense of what I mean by whole bible literacy, I wanted to share a note I made following one of my daily meditations on the word.

I read Leviticus 20 to Numbers 3 and Mark 9-12 that day. Here were my notes:

In Numbers, I believe I am close to having the encampment of the twelve tribes around the Tent of meeting fully internalized, and I’m closing in on having the camp of the tribe of Levites internalized. Today if you ask me, I will be 100% accurate, but maybe not next week. It’s interesting that the groupings of the tribes here don’t align with the grouping in Gilead of Manasseh, Reuben, and Benjamin. Reuben, for instance, is with Simeon and Gad in this grouping.

In Mark 11, the Triumphal Entry of Christ cannot be seen in the context the Jewish authorities would have seen it without the OT. This is five days away from Christ being arrested in the garden of Gethsemane and six days from his brutal execution and final atonement for the sins of humanity.

If Christ would have entered the city with just a few people waving palm fronds, he would have been dead before he ever reached the gate, but the popularity of Christ (just six days away from the crowd cheering his death, even demanding it) was such that they had to endure the “heretical” display.

If you are not intimate with the Old Testament, you will have to rely on some egghead scholar to point this out to you in a YouTube video, though if you are in the habit of reading scripture daily and that habit leads you to read through it at least 3 times a year, after a few years this “scholarly” disembodied “fact” is just a simple common sense conclusion when scripture becomes a whole in your mind.

The unfolding of your word gives light, it imparts understanding to the simple.”Psalm 119:130

ED.NOTE: This is the fruit of a whole-bible approach. In the 19th century, this was called hermeneutics, and it unfortunately led to structuralism, which led to post-structuralism, which is the foundation wokeness is built on today. What God meant for God, Satan turned to Evil, but yet the foundation, hermeneutics, is as righteous then as it is today.  Like the Qin in our January 23, 2026 installment of Transitions, they built poison on top of a solid foundation, wokeness built poison on the solid foundation of whole-bible knowing.

You would not understand how “heretical” this Triumphal entry was unless you knew the Old Testament. In this case, the rub is this: the Feast of the Lord begins on the 15th day of the seventh month of the year. THIS is when you have the Palm frond triumphal celebration. (Leviticus 23).

“And you shall take on the first day the fruit of splendid trees, branches of palm trees and boughs of leafy trees and willows of the brook, and you shall rejoice before the Lord your God seven days.”Leviticus 23:40

Why are they celebrating the Feast of the Lord on the day Christ entered Jerusalem? It is a celebration of a wedding they as yet do not fully understand.

The Feast of the Lord is also called the Feast of Booths. Jonah, after he delivered his message of repentant salvation, sat bitterly and made himself a booth. I suspect he is observing the Feast of Booths. He overlooks Ninevah with bitterness, knowing if they repent the Lord will forgive them.

Jonah is one of a handful of people Christ compared himself to. He is one of the many shadows of Christ in the Old Testament. He told the authorities seeking a sign that He is the Christ that, like Jonah, the only sign he will give them is three days and three nights in the heart of the earth (like Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a fish).

“Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered him, saying, ‘Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you.’ But he answered them, ‘An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. For just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.’”Matthew 12:38-40

The Jewish leaders understood that the Triumphal Entry was a declaration that Christ is King, but they did not understand that his Kingship is a spiritual authority that advances through the spirit of being in carrying out the Great Commandment and the Great Commission.

To the Jewish leaders, this is a vulgar act of heresy they do not act against (yet) lest the mob destroy them (the same mob that will later call for Christ’s execution).

This is just another reminder that only demons tell the children of God to decouple the Old Testament from the New, for anyone who has faithfully meditated on the whole over years would NEVER dare think such illogical and unreasonable assumptions, even from a purely textually critical perspective.

It is VERY clear the NT writers viewed the OT as essential to their own text, and it is VERY clear that they intended to add layers of understanding to the OT through their divinely “delivered” final testaments.

Read your bible. Steward your OWN beliefs on what is, in actuality, the face, the will, the desire, of God.

End note.

This was my note, and my observations were instant, in flow (I only edited typos and grammatical errors). This was not a word study, it emerged from my faithful meditation on the Word daily, working through scripture minimally 4 times a year, allowing, through the Holy Spirit, what facts might become memorized to emerge from that faithful encounter.

I have been doing this for five full years. This is year six. This is what I hope to teach others to do, and to provide space for those willing to meditate on the Word and share their thoughts with others doing the same, within the context of approaching scripture as a child, assuming its truth is sure, and God’s justice is just, and that only through the Holy Spirit can we hope to deeply know the Word to make it the plumbline of our soul and the impetus of our daily action.

Thankfully, through scripture alone I have come to know how God allows pain and suffering to give us opportunity to experience at the blood and bone level our unconditional love for Him; to praise him in our pain and walk in faith the darkness is a valley we can walk through and not a perpetual state of being.

Next up for the castle is news of the damages after we get a thaw that allows us to test the system (zone by zone, we have six) and an estimate on installing a bathroom in me and my wife’s to-be second floor quarters.

The next update will be in the February 27, 2026, Monthly edition of MIA.

INTRODUCTION

This is not a full analysis of world events, but rather an analysis of bellwether events, regions, trends, and countries that tell the overarching story of the world in January 2026, which is still the struggle to define the new order as the old order comes crashing down around them.

Our analysis is from an Americanist perspective, nested within our Christian belief system.

Our last Bellwether report in our December 2025 issue began with the announced resignation of Klaus Schwab from the World Economic Forum. This month, President Trump’s invasion of Davos marks the official death of the globalist project. This was not just done with speeches, but, leading up to Davos, with an action against Venezuela that made it clear America was playing solely in its own self-interest, not in the interest of the global order.

At home, America versus Progmerica is beginning to form, and the battle between ICE agents and Progmerican insurrectionists is clarifying that division. DNC media outlets are openly spreading provable knowable lies about ICE agents that are clearly intended (in our opinion) to incite more violence against them and their family members.

As the ICE wars rage, good economic news for the American republic is buried by this criminal press. Trump’s tariff strategy, for instance, is bringing in billions in revenue and helping to restore American industry (especially the steel industry). The news is not all good on the economic front as major companies continue to announce tens of thousands of layoffs ahead for 2026.

The inchoate state of the American republic compared to the Progmerican Empire is what has advantaged the Progmericans for a while now. Progmericanism has been smuggled in, from on top, using American words with Progmerican definitions. Americans were mostly partly Progmericans, without realizing it, so they could no longer clearly see how antithetical to American values Progressivism is.

We are beginning to see that inchoate state more clearly form as people in this land are being forced to discover the differences between Progmerican values and American ones, and, fortunately, so far, most are choosing America. Let us hope that continues and accelerates in the coming weeks and months.

This report was completed on January 29, 2026

A. AMERICA

The ICE Wars now dominate the American landscape with media outlets becoming increasingly overt in their war messaging, a war message aimed directly at the heart of the American republic. So far, no conservative leader, including President Trump, has openly called the media an information terrorist organization illegally campaigning for the Democrat Party even though it is obvious at this point what the media is doing.

This fact alone makes one question how much of the old Progmerican infrastructure this regime wants to hold on to. To us, it would seem he wants to hold on to more than we had hoped for. He wants to hold on to the potential for media power for his faction is what we suspect.

We keep getting teases of serious 2020 election investigations, and we get another tease this month after FBI agents seized the ballots and ballot records from Fulton County, GA for that election. This could be what leads to the final undoing of the DNC in America, but this writer will believe it when the DNC leadership is convicted and punished.

Should the election be proven to have been fraudulent, this would give President Trump the power to do what we have been calling him to do since 2017, declare a state of insurrection, follow that up by declaring the Democrat Party a terrorist organization, seize its assets (its media, its corporations), remove Democrats from all state institutions, including government and the schools, arrest the leaders and punish the leaders that are duly convicted (through a Rule of Law process).

The 2026 election will obviously look radically different should the 2020 election be rightly overturned. Barring that, the DNC has a better-than-average chance at retaking both the U.S. House and Senate, which would mean more terror, more chaos for Americans should that happen.

For a taste of what’s to come, look no further than New York and Virginia, where Democrats coming in to power have moved swiftly to cement Progmerica as the Rule of Law in the land over American Rule of Law.

Mayor Mamdani is already opening the coffers to illegal aliens and telling New Yorkers they need to “renegotiate their relation to the state,” and Governor Spanberger is already moving to confiscate Virginians’ guns. Progmerican Virginia is also moving to double their politicians’ pay immediately, as government grifters are wont to do.

Both seem fully committed to violating the constitution openly for as long as they can get away with it, hoping to establish Progmerican Rule of Law (social-based justice) so the final impediment to full Progmerican power, individual-based Rule of Law, becomes precedented out of existence.

A 2020 Election Overturn and the criminalization of the DNC would end their reigns, but short of that, their terms will be filled out by violence, hate, and economic disaster, leaving both the state and the city husks of their former glory.

Right now, the 2026 election looks tight, but should the economic boom happen that some think is coming, the Democrats might be struggling for an effective competing message outside of promising more murdering of babies and confiscating of guns. Their days of sinking campaigns with charges of racism and homophobia are over, they’ll have to stand on their own apocalyptic record (which will be seen in the regions in which they continue to rule).

B. WORLD

The state of the world in our December 2025 SitRep was radically different than the state of the world today. As a news analyst and aggregator (see our aggregation work at mindfulintelligence.news), never have there been more major news events happening daily in my 20-plus years of work. Stories that don’t show up in our Global Outlook reports would have been top stories in more stable times.

While everyone saw the writing on the wall, now they know for sure; unless they can topple American power, the UN project is dead. China is still desperately trying to save it, for it understands the UN is an American carburetor, an intentional impediment to her real power/

With the capture of Maduro from underneath China’s protection by the U.S., the global order was served notice.

That notice was cemented in Davos as Trump and his team continue to serve notice to the global order that America was taking its proverbial ball and heading home and also NOT heading home.

Greenland continues to serve as a Bellwether of the struggle between Europe’s hopes for moral restraint that only serves their interests and America’s hopes of having a secure homeland in the wake of weak “allies” whose values are increasingly anathema to ours.

Before the next issue, we might see TWO significant regime changes, one in China and one in Iran, though we might also see more internal violence as Xi in China and Khamenei in Iran murder their way to consolidated power (but at great cost to both nations).

In China, we could see Xi fall but the CCP still retain power, though we believe if Xi is replaced, even if by the CCP, the CCP’s hold on the country will be even more tenuous than it already is unless it makes drastic reforms that will effectively end its complete police-state power.

  1. VENEZUELA – When the United States quickly invaded Venezuela and surgically removed their President, Nicholas Maduro, China and Russia lost a potential future base and the global order lost its illusion of parity with the United States. The capture of Maduro, though, wasn’t just about shutting down what Trump is alleging is a Cartel state, it was about getting information about Maduro’s connections to the Dominion voting machines involved in counting the ballots for the 2020 election.

News of the FBI’s investigation into Fulton County Georgia’s 2020 election ballots legitimizes those claims. Since Maduro’s capture, the U.S. has received greater cooperation from the current regime, but the administration warned them recently that they need to do more or risk further punitive action.

  1. DAVOS – This was our bellwether story, which you can read about on pg. 2. Davos was the official death of the global world order and a scramble for a new one that yet contains the raw power of the United States. This could push Europe towards China, which some view as a real threat to America but we view as a gift.

What is becoming more and more apparent is that the EU’s values are increasingly becoming aligned with China’s and less aligned with America’s, though the natives on the streets would far prefer American values over Chinese, or Progmerican (they’re virtually the same at this point) values.

  1. CHINAChairman Xi has his hands full at home as conflicting reports overall suggest China’s leader has barely survived, so far, an ongoing coup attempt. He is doing so by eviscerating his top experts, including military experts, which are causing many to question the real power of China in its current state.

His second in command, Zhang Youxia, was the leader of the coup, but was captured and arrested. He hasn’t been killed yet because his father was one of the founders of the People’s Liberation Army and he is the ONLY General in the Chinese military that has EVER seen combat. He is a national treasure. Experts within China suggest he is far more popular than Xi, so simply disappearing him would be a risky move.

Even as Xi struggles at home, he continues to aggressively work against American interests, pressuring nations to continue to rely on the Old World Order, international law defined by the United Nations, a plea Europeans might be tempted to listen to, but one that further makes America’s point about how useless it has become to American interests.

If they do, this will only help America in the long-term, should Europe rise as a rival to her power. China will be to Europe what the Ottoman Empire was to the allies in World War Two, an albatross draining resources and offering little to nothing in return.

  1. IRANWhat started as a hope for the end of a bloodthirsty regime has so far turned into a slaughter that tops 30,000 dead. In our last issue, we covered the dilemma Trump has, having promised the protestors “help is on the way,” but so far not delivering that help.

An Armada is on the way, the Gerald R. Ford Carrier group, and Trump is offering the regime one last chance to negotiate a peace that does NOT include nuclear arms for Iran.

Should the regime fall, the source of the EXPLOSION of Islamist terror in the world would be gone. Russia and China would suffer a far greater geopolitical defeat with the loss of Iran than they did with Venezuela. Israel would find itself in a much more secure position, with her neighbors most likely being more inclined to normalize relations (without fear of terror sponsored by Iran from within their own nations).

  1. SOUTH KOREAIt is becoming increasingly apparent that South Korea may be viewed as a write-off for the Trump administration. The seizure of South Korea by their Democrat Party invited the CCP into the country, with the proof coming in the form of new censorship laws.

Expect U.S. troop downsizing in South Korea soon as the President just informed South Korea, they will have to fend for themselves against all conventional threats. This could be an opportunity for the CCP or another liability, another expense that could help accelerate their demise.

It goes without saying that the end of the CCP in China would make the Democrats in South Korea vulnerable to the pushback that might come their way, a pushback a new China might help rather than hinder.

  1. GAZA WAR/MIDDLE EASTThrough the Gaza Peace Deal, President Trump is hoping to start what looks increasingly like a replacement for the UN he is calling the Board of Peace. So far, many Middle East countries have joined while European ones are passing, for now. It seems there is still hope for the UN to continue (but without the U.S.) after its death was announced at Davos.

Hope for Hamas preserving power is diminishing, with even Turkey now attempting to help negotiate Hamas’ disarmament. Mahmood Abbas of the Palestinian Authority has announced Hamas would not be on the ballot.

The finality of the war was punctuated when the remains of the last Israeli hostage was returned, setting off demonstrations of grieving, relief, and celebration.

  1. UK – America’s mother country, Britain, is speed-running through the same anti-human dark ideology of Progmerica’s Democrat Party, “wokeness.” But as it is doing this, while continuing to import violent men from violent countries explicitly to inflict harm on the English devil, the English are finding themselves and realizing they still overwhelmingly outnumber the invaders.

So far, though, their commitment to remaining unarmed persists despite the clear evidence that the one country infected with wokeness that has managed to beat back its onslaught had armed citizens fully comfortable with well-armed neighbors. That country, of course, is America.

Starmer appears to be doing everything he can to further antagonize the English, even cancelling local elections because he knows his party will be gutted as a result. But it’s not just cancelling elections, it’s continuing to harass, prosecute, and arrest British citizens for saying hurty words online even as he pushes to effectively make speaking against Islam a criminal offense.

One can only imagine Starmer is not aware of his country’s own history, or that Starmer imagines the English spirit is dead. Signs point to that spirit being reignited again, especially among young boys who can see for themselves how their schools teach good things about Islam and bad things about their own country.

Rather than programming them, however, the schools are saying the quiet parts out loud, at long last, and even the children are now noticing.

As they lurch into full-on totalitarianism, Starmer is also handing over London to China, betting on an alliance with China to offset his growing antagonism to the U.S. This foreign policy is wildly unpopular with the English, as is Keir Starmer. Never has a PM been more unliked than this PM since polling began. His recent trip to Beijing yielded token reductions of a few tariffs, nothing more.

B. CULTURE

The Minneapolis Church Ambush by Don Lemon and his horde of insurrectionists crossed an American cultural line that the Democrats will not be able to walk back from so easily, especially given their reaction to the violation of private worship for violent political means (and there was violence, intimidation, and the terrorizing of children).

They compared it to Jesus turning over the tables in the Temple, not realizing what they were saying, which is that they are Jesus and the temple is theirs. THAT is the authority Christ operated in, NOT the authority of violent political insurrectionists at war with America. Not only was the temple his, HE is the temple.

They continue to own this violation as their judges protect the criminals, either by refusing to charge them or giving them a cashless bail. For now, this is to their favor, but when the dust settles, we will surely revisit the left’s efforts to normalize political violence in private places of worship. Nothing symbolizes the depth of treason in Progmericans’ hearts than their gleeful support of this thuggery.

In Progmerican states, abortions are on the rise, mostly through the unborn baby murder pill that is still being sold over the counter despite numerous health risks. Another dangerous effect of allowing anyone to buy this dangerous drug is the ease with which it can be used by others to murder unborn children they don’t want by slipping the death pill in the mother’s food or drink.

Shockingly, after JUST taking power, Progmerican Virginia wants to pass an amendment to allow the murdering of unborn children up to birth.

While euthanasia’s spread to France was halted (for now), Canada continues to relax its rules on its own euthanasia laws despite increasing evidence some people are manipulating family members to kill themselves.

C. MARKET

President Trump continues to use tariffs as geopolitical tools in much the same way they were used until the 20th century, with mixed results. On one hand, a lot of economic indicators are up, including inflation (which is down, which is an up for the economy). On the other hand, there are major layoffs coming from Amazon and UPS.

If the tariffs deliver the promised tax rebates, their popularity may be secured, and SCOTUS might have a harder time ending a program that could be shown to have powerfully positive effects for America (though the jury is still out on that).

Overall, though, signs point to an economy about to take off after a lot of first-round infrastructure work is coming online as a result of President Trump’s “Marshall Plan” for the U.S. in the form of $18 trillion in foreign investments. Even the World Bank has now taken notice and anticipates an economic acceleration.

The month ended with the finalization of the transfer of power of TikTok to primarily American interests from CCP interests. While the CCP loses its access to American data, and affecting TikTok’s algorithm, they will continue to make money they can use to fund the military they hope one day to defeat us with.

Should the CCP collapse, China’s profiting off of TikTok would most likely not be such a threat.

D. SCI-TECH

If you “Trust the Science,” you really “Trust the Ideology” says Breakthrough Institute, who claims academic journals have a strict ideological filter that allows sloppy work for the ideologically pure to get peer-reviewed. That same ideological filter blocks excellent work of the ideologically unorthodox or neutral from getting peer reviews. The findings only affirm what we could see for ourselves for decades, Progmerican “scientists” are political activists, not scientists.

The international global network may face even more challenges as “Big Social” is set to be hemmed in by parochial nationalist interests the world over, especially in growing totalitarian states like the UK (who view the free discourse of human thought as an existential threat to the power they built with the lie that the Englishman invented evil).

One great innovation done by President Trump was the insistence that America’s new AI infrastructure include power plants built right where the AI infrastructure is built. The plan is for rapid AI expansion to be fed by power outside the grid, meaning it will not be an energy tax on the land. The President has yet to address the high-water demand of AI, which is not as easy a fix as energy.

SYNTHESIS SUMMARY

Be sure to read our quarterly sitrep in our April 10, 2026, issue for our Predictive Analysis for the next quarter.

The world is only accelerating its exit from the old world and its step into the new. Even as we speak, nations are scrambling to not be left behind in the great race for AI resource control. At the heart of every enterprise, be it a microfactory or a restaurant, AI will be what separates the winners from the losers. This scales all the way up to the national level.

Davos was like a Starter Pistol to the world that the Great Race is on. The bloom of moral power is gone, replaced by killing power. For good or for ill, President Trump gave the rest of the world notice that America was beginning the race, to secure its position in the emerging world no matter the cost to others that might oppose her.

In many ways, the ICE Wars, while they present very real catastrophic outcomes that could upset what might be emerging, are the last vestiges of the old order’s power, a power now reduced to physical violence, directly, at long last, having had their moral power stripped from them in this land.

The DNC criminal media is depriving America of so much positive news, especially economic news. We are on the verge of becoming perhaps the fastest growing economy in the world while our geopolitical enemies, mainly Russia and China, are reeling from the loss of great geopolitical power in America’s hemisphere.

Overseas, we have seen the collapse of Hamas in Palestine, something normal Americans would celebrate (while not necessarily celebrating how that collapse happened), the Iranian regime tottering on the verge of collapse (which would further devastate Chinese and Russian geopolitical power). If that’s not ENOUGH GOOD NEWS, China herself potentially faces the end of the reign of the CCP.

Instead of giving Americans hope, the DNC criminal media either ignores or downplays Trump’s foreign policy victories while it barrages Americans with intentional lies designed to trigger violent action against Federal law enforcers. It holds back America’s hope while lying about its law enforcers.

Yet, even with that barrage of violent and seditious agit prop by the DNC criminal media, Americans support ICE action by a 10-point margin, a margin that surely would be 30 or more if Americans had a free corporate press. He also now holds a 9-point approval rating advantage among Hispanics.

The only hope the DNC has is its criminal press, which seems to be aggressively attempting to incite a violent civil war. At this point, though, Americans have already figured out Progressives have always wanted them dead, jailed, or economically boycotted.

What the media does not understand, what leftists do NOT understand is Americans are done with progressives. Americans are convinced they will never allow them to live in peace as Americans, that they will always riot, that they will always assassinate, that they will always seek to use authority to oppress dissent. When they cry for American Rule of Law, Americans have no real sympathy for them anymore, since they spent the last decade aggressively trying to destroy it.

You cancelled Americans. These Americans lost careers, college degrees, and fun places to hang out. You’ve been brutalizing Americans for years, and now, Americans view you as enemy combatants, not Americans, not citizens. A criminal in the process of executing a crime has no rights until he or she is detained.

Americans don’t care if ICE “violates” your rights because they view you as outlaws, insurrectionists in active war against Americans, with your intended goal of killing every American you can.

Right now, the DNC criminal media is keeping the emerging booming American economy from Americans. While this booming economy may allegedly be in the mail, it hasn’t arrived in our mailboxes yet, though signs point to that happening soon.

We will be watching the emerging 2020 Election Investigation revitalization, Iran, and China first and foremost in the coming month, as all three could fundamentally alter, once again, the geopolitical landscape in the coming weeks ahead.

Our next sitrep will be published in the February 27, 2026, issue of MIA.

“Sovereignty is your borders. You’re entitled to have borders. You shouldn’t offshore your medicine. You shouldn’t offshore your semiconductors. You shouldn’t offshore your entire industrial base and have it be hollowed out beneath you. You should not be dependent for that which is fundamental to your sovereignty on any other nation. And if you’re going to be dependent on someone, it darn well better be your best allies.”Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick at WEF’s Davos 2026

INTRODUCTION

Across the world, from the U.S. to China, it seems the turmoil, the instability is only increasing. At home, the Progmericans are fighting to defend non-citizens from American law enforcement officers. In China, Chairman Xi is engaged in a bloody war to the death with some of his previously dearest friends (many of whom are now dead).

All these rumblings, however, point back to the same source, the death of the weak ruling the strong through “international order.”

The WEF has become the symbol of a global world order than began after World War II as a way for the Americans to assure they had the vast majority of the “West” strongly in their camp against their main rival, the Soviet Union. The arrangement was simple, we protect the seas and you affirm our world policy.

Abuses abounded in that relationship on both sides, but the net result is the global world order has become a fecund bed for anti-Americanism, both globally and here at home. That globalism has left America bereft of her market independence, but not bereft of her military power. The World Order that once protected America from Soviet expansion has become its own foreign-dominated entity hellbent on one singular goal, dismantle, neutralize American power.

The U.S. military budget in 2024 was almost $1 trillion. China’s military budget was $314 billion. Russia’s military budget was $149 billion. The entire EU military budget, which includes its joint efforts and the budgets of the member states was $380 billion in 2024. If you add up all the budgets of the EU, China, and Russia, you still fall short of America’s military budget. If they hope to work together, currently, they can only do that with American logistical support.

The U.S. now finds itself in the position of having the world’s greatest military, by far and away (especially at this moment with the political turmoil in China which makes ICE protests look innocuous by comparison), but constrained by a global world order that has proven to be disastrous for Americans as a whole.

This is only considering the economic damage that has been done to America; this speaks nothing about the subversive activity foreigners from the CCP to Somalia have funded and participated in on American soil, all under the programs of the global world order.

While President Trump’s speech may have been the real statement of power, the plain speak version spoken by Howard Lutnick would serve as the succinct notice to the world that the ultimate real power behind that world order, the United States, was done sustaining it.

The time is now for nations to take responsibility for themselves, and the reality of power to be known. It’s time for the paper tigers to burn and the fortresses of steel to advance, come what may, in a new global interregnum where all bets are off for what the new world order will be, if there is any world order at all.

A. THE WRITING ON THE WALL

  1. SOMALIA’S UN – Before Davos, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres intentionally or unintentionally telegraphed what was going to take place at Davos, Switzerland, the home of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting.

The Secretary General could see the writing on the wall through America’s current avatar, Trump, who vowed to come into Davos as a vanquisher, not a partner.

In a meeting of the UN Security Council convened by the Somal contingency (which holds the Presidency until then end of January 2026) Guterres told his audience, “The rule of law is a cornerstone of global peace and security.”

The Secretary General said the quiet part out loud right here, without meaning to, when he declared, For smaller and less-powerful countries, particularly those affected by historical inequities and the legacies of colonialism, international law is a lifeline promising equal treatment, sovereignty, dignity and justice.”

This is the language of America’s former enemy, the Soviet Union. The agreement has come full circle so that the power it creates for the weak is being used in the same way the Soviet Union would have used it, to destroy the American republic.

This part here appeals to moral restraint alone to check great power against small power. But in the case of the UN, we have a vehicle of power that is being used by collective small power to destroy great power from within their own countries. It is only fitting that the Somalis (who sent us a Minnesota fraud community that was stealing billions from American citizens) presided over this self-own disaster of a speech.

This is like handing over the controls of a 747 to a blind man because it was his turn to fly (and that would be the “democratic” thing to do).

ED.NOTE: Somali culture goes back centuries, and some of it is rich with governance innovation the West has yet to learn, let alone understand. Somalia is the southern region of the land Somalis occupy. Somaliland to the North is radically different than the south. What we have in Minnesota is hardly the Somali peoples’ best, even in the South.

He offered a token gesture to the great powers to convince them that an arrangement that creates an imbalance of power favoring small nations over the great is somehow still good for the great. He claimed, “For powerful countries, it is a guardrail defining what is acceptable – and what is not, in times of disagreement, division and outright conflict.”

The guardrail is there to check their power against their own interest. It’s not there to help great powers.

After Davos, the weak power’s vehicle of power, the UN, and even NATO (weak Europe checking American great power), have de facto lost their reason for existing at all. The UN was an engine of peace that turned out to be an anti-American poison pill largely funded by Americans. NATO was American protection of Europe while Europe undermined Americanism.

As Europe lurched further and further away from individual liberty, the incentive for America to continue to pay for their protection ended.

While International Rule of Law seems good as a Motte, its bailey is filled with violent political papercut fights that allow petty tyrants from barely existing countries to wield international power over far greater powers.

The Secretary General warned that rule of law was being replaced by the law of the jungle, but what he didn’t dare say, or face, was the fact that the UN has enabled a de facto law of the papercut jungle to rule over great powers for the bulk of its disgraceful existence.

Standards, for instance, are not followed consistently, they’re applied to target the UN’s main enemies, America, Russia, and Israel (not necessarily in that order). This speech by the UN’s CEO was a last desperate plea to preserve corrupt weak power over great power. It appears Trump was not impressed.

  1. THE INDEPENDENCE COPE – Before Davos, President Trump’s bellicose language demanding Greenland become part of America emerged as the bellwether of the upcoming event and would ultimately prove to be the enduring bellwether of the event. Before the event, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen responded to Trump’s threats, calling them a “mistake.”

She then added, “It shows that our northern NATO members have Arctic-ready forces right now. And above all, that Arctic security can only be achieved together. And this is why the proposed additional tariffs are a mistake, especially between long-standing allies. The European Union and the United States have agreed to a trade deal last July, and in politics, and in business, a deal is a deal, and when friends shake hands, it must mean something.”

Europe rushed a few troops in for a few days, then pulled them back out in an empty display that defies the reality of power, which is this; Europe, as of right now, is more of a liability to America than an asset, and her paltry response to Trump’s shocking (even to this writer) suggestions he might use the military (which he later walked back), reveals just how little real power Europe has.

She called for Europe to become more independent, to not rely on American power for their defense, but, in point of fact, for the foreseeable future, Europe has NO EFFECTIVE defense outside of America.

B. THE END OF THEIR HISTORY

President Donald Trump’s Commerce Secretary, Howard Lutnick, in a conversation on the WEF stage, may have delivered the most meaningful moment of the whole event, topping even Trump, even if not in authority (though one presumes he spoke with Trump’s authority).

What Lutnick did was spell out to Europe why it is that America has no interest in being shackled by a global order that produced a total gutting of American vitality in return. Of course, the story isn’t as simple as that, but this writer believes it is largely accurate (though complex, for the same “Americans” that also gutted other nations through this whole system were also doing this to their own country as well).

He starts off making it clear why the American arrived like never before to Davos this year. He declared, “Okay. We are in Davos, at the World Economic Forum, and the Trump administration—and myself—we are here to make a very clear point.

Globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It’s a failed policy. It is what the WEF has stood for, which is export offshore, far-shore, find the cheapest labor in the world and the world is a better place for it.”

When the world order looks to the “good of the whole,” they do so at the sovereign expense of their member nations. This is fine in fat times, but the cost is overbearing in lean times, and even more costly when the payoff is the constant shaming and erosion of American vitality and sovereignty.

Lutnick spells it out plainly here, stating, “The fact is, it has left America behind. It has left the American worker behind. And what we are here to say is that America First is a different model—one that we encourage other countries to consider—which is that our workers come first. We can have policies that impact our workers.”

This isn’t a rebuke of the notion of international rule of law, this a rebuke of the current one and a demand that any new ones respect the sovereign rights of states. It encourages sovereign states to look after the interests of its own citizens first, but within the boundaries of their reality of power.

He makes it clear when he means sovereignty, he’s not just talking about borders. He exclaimed, “Sovereignty is your borders. You’re entitled to have borders. You shouldn’t offshore your medicine. You shouldn’t offshore your semiconductors. You shouldn’t offshore your entire industrial base and have it be hollowed out beneath you.”

This next comment is the ultimate indictment of the whole project, and it’s true not just of America but most of the nations of the west. The UN project shifted real market power through international law to China at the detriment of the West (including the US).

Lutnick brings home the point that indicts the whole globalist project, “You should not be dependent for that which is fundamental to your sovereignty on any other nation. And if you’re going to be dependent on someone, it darn well better be your best allies.”

Any system that leads any nation to violate that standard is an existential threat to that same nation, and that includes the U.S.

The UN pushed the Global Warming hoax that was used to justify maddening energy policies from sovereign nations that makes them utterly dependent on an authoritarian state that even now is in the midst of a political purge that hasn’t been seen since Mao.

Lutnick highlighted the foolishness of their green scheme, pointing out, “Why would Europe agree to be net zero in 2030 when they don’t make a battery? They don’t make a battery. So if they go 2030, they are deciding to be subservient to China, who makes the batteries. Why would you do that?”

You would only do that if you were in on the sabotage of your own nation-state, as EU, UN, and even NATO leaders are.

PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS

Before Rome established an Empire, she managed Greece in much the same way America manages her spheres of influence, expecting little more from them than economic cooperation and submission to Roman foreign policy. After a century or two of violations of Rome’s foreign policy, and even an incursion by one Greek King, Pyrrhus of Epirus, Rome decided to use its military advantage to once and for all absorb Greece into its Empire.

This was accomplished with the fall of Corinth in 146 BC, and it would set Rome on a course of gutting their republic and creating a world Empire that would last for centuries. There are significant differences between Rome and America today, but yet we now find ourselves at a similar crossroads to Rome, finding itself sponsoring its own enemies and seeing its own power limited by rules effectively designed to neuter it. This transition from the republic to the empire is Part 3 of our Transitions series, which is scheduled to be published in the June 5 edition of MIA.

Rome chose flat-out conquest, which I am not suggesting America will choose, outside of perhaps Greenland, Canada, and maybe Mexico. It is doubtful America wants to absorb the rot that they view as Europe today. It would be like taking in an old man with a contagious disease.

I am not suggesting America will be conquering Canada and Mexico anytime soon, but the door is now open to do so (not that I recommend we do so).

We are going back to the Treaty of Westphalia (1648), where sovereignty was assumed only for those who could field an army to defend it and a professional class to manage it. Failure on any front would justify conquest from a stronger power. It laid the groundwork for an international order even as the global order would subvert its initial principles.

That treaty was replaced by the post-WWII agreement that afforded weak governments the “right” to hold land and be supplemented by the great powers through a global de facto redistribution of wealth system, one that awarded warlords for compliance with the world order.

The next domino to fall which could ignite a new round of conquest, absorption, and consolidation (sometimes voluntarily) will be the nullification of nuclear missiles through effective missile defenses. This writer believes we are close to seeing something like this happen. Trump’s Golden Dome moves us towards that direction (and it is why, in part, he wants Greenland).

Until then, for all the threats by Trump, Europe has nuclear arms, so they are safe, for now (and probably for some time to come afterwards, should they mind their own business). Canada and Mexico, however, do not have nuclear missiles. The new world order means territory is once again valuable (because they need land and water for AI centers). This makes possession of Canada and Mexico a potential vital need for the continuation of the American state.

If I am right, and Trump is sowing the seeds for that eventuality, see if pro-Americanist groups in Mexico don’t start sprouting up. They already are in Canada. Conservatives in Canada would feel far better under American authority with American rights than they do under Canada’s laws, ESPECIALLY if Canada can sustain its own identity (like Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales do in the UK).

Perhaps the mere offer of becoming American citizens with American rights will be enough to “conquer” Canada and Mexico.

The new American Empire would have more difficulty integrating Mexico than Canada, so phasing in their citizenship and voting rights will be generally longer than Canadians. Mexico’s Americanist population (people who understand and want dangerous liberty for themselves AND their neighbors) is much smaller (but not non-existent) than Canada’s (which might be as much as 25% of the country).

What we are seeing on the streets of Minneapolis are, most likely, the last violent gasps of a global world order desperately trying to reel America back into its heeled place, providing the power while being sabotaged by it.

The 2026 Midterm Elections may be the last stand for the globalist world order or the beginning of their counter-reformation. Let us hope for the sake of the human race they are vanquished by the end of this year. If they are not, expect a Progmerican revival that will not long last as even America’s energy will finally flicker out and the world will be filled with violence for decades to come.

Whether they want to accept it or not, the globalist project is dead. The resources are gone. The myths are destroyed. Even if they “win,” they will have nothing left to complete their project. America is putting it out of its misery before it can completely break her, and thus the world.

A strong, independent America is the best hope for stability for most of the world in the decades ahead. A weak America is war for the world and great pain and suffering for us here at home.

To our Christian subscribers, let us pray for repentance in America, especially of the sin of murdering our children, both in the womb and in the classroom, both physically and spiritually. And barring that, that the Lord might tarry in our deserved judgment and give us more time to lead our nation to repentance, forgiveness, and restoration.

Let us hope there are 10 of us found for God to spare our country.

By Paul Gordon Collier, Editor

“And Absalom used to rise early and stand beside the way of the gate. And when any man had a dispute to come before the king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, ‘From what city are you?’ And when he said, ‘Your servant is of such and such a tribe in Israel,’ Absalom would say to him, ‘See, your claims are good and right, but there is no man designated by the king to hear you.’ Then Absalom would say, ‘Oh that I were judge in the land! Then every man with a dispute or cause might come to me, and I would give him justice.’” – 2 Samuel 15:2-4

Towards the end of January, we archived a news blurb from The Blaze that was titled “Activists ask for compassion for mother who allegedly drowned her baby in bathtub: ‘She is loved. She is valued.”

A 23-year-old woman, Tierra Scott-Franklin, was arrested in Gainesville, Fl allegedly after police found a baby unresponsive in her care. The police charged her with first-degree premeditated murder. The baby was only seven months old.

From The Blaze:

When the woman appeared in court, activists argued for compassion on her behalf.

“She did what she did, but we stand behind her. She is loved. She is valued. She is cared for,” Saudia Bradley said. “We’re asking that you please do what you do to help her to get the help she needs.”

Scott-Franklin was previously arrested for allegedly assaulting a 67-year-old woman and is also facing a charge for battery of a person 65 years or older.

Another activist said that Scott-Franklin sought help before the incident.

“She’s not well. She let people know she was not well and asked them to take the baby,” Chanae Jackson said.

From Law and Crime:

According to the report, Scott-Franklin told police, “If I can’t have my baby, no one can,” and “I’m sorry, but I don’t regret it.” The Alachua Chronicle reported that Scott-Franklin was on five years of probation after pleading no contest to a battery charge against a 67-year-old victim in 2025. She told police that she was facing “other legal penalties” and was afraid of losing custody of her baby. Scott-Franklin said she suffered from several mental illnesses and claimed to hear voices.

The story didn’t even make it as a mention in our monthly report from January 2026, though it stuck in my mind nonetheless, causing me to revisit it, asking myself, what is the bellwether in this story?

Usually, when a story sticks with me, ESPECIALLY if it is not, in and of itself, a major story, I find a MAJOR bellwether within. I believe I have in this case, and that bellwether is the spirit of transactional being as so chillingly reflected in statements that, within the Progmerican worldview, are innocuous in and of themselves, even heroic.

The first comment by Saudi Bradley established the activists’ unified voice, that she did what she did, but we stand behind her. She is loved…. We’re asking that you please do what you do to help her to get the help she needs.”

This writer believes that to these activists the death of that child was not the product of an individual’s choice, it was the product of a social choice. The state failed this girl. The people around her failed this girl. Capitalism failed this girl (they didn’t say this, but I have high confidence they would agree with this statement). SHE is not the criminal in this social justice world, the system is. The death of the child is on them.

It should be noted that the mother in this story is black. She is not only a poor single mother with mental issues probably caused by social oppression (most likely, the white devil is behind that bone-crushing energy), she is also the daughter of a slave that was once owned by her white neighbors (or, in a way, is STILL owned by these same white neighbors).

The pattern of generalization that leads to sub-humanization is hard enough for humans to resist. We fortunately also tend to humanize people with even greater ease than we sub-humanize them, though when we grow up in a pattern of sub-humanization it becomes increasingly difficult to live out that humanizing spirit with anyone, not even the closest among you.

I cannot know for certain how close I am to capturing the overall worldview of the activists in that courtroom pleading for a woman who drowned her 7-month-old daughter to death to get treatment rather than prison, but the nature of the defense fills me with confidence I am most likely right.

While I feel somewhat confident in assuming they are made in the image of the white versus POC social justice god, I feel VERY confident that these activists have fully embraced abortion culture. The normalization of abortion, now up to birth, is the underlying heuristic-spirit-habit-of-being driver of this story and the American story as well.

Abortion culture gave the body the spirit for White Devil Social Justice Culture, a culture where the other is in perpetual unredeemable sin, where market forces are driven by social hierarchies, not individual excellence. When the sacred dies in the human, the human becomes transactional, measured in potential profit and loss to the social.

The child herself is hardly a thing. She is an unsustainable burden on a woman of choice.

It is easy to divorce the child from the human, for a mere 7 months separates the child from the increasingly orthodox Progmerican limit on abortion, up to birth. What’s a mere 7 months in the potential of an unburdened woman of choice?

A human isn’t human, perhaps, until they can apply for welfare and/or “vote” for the DNC.

When they say this woman is loved, we would say that too, but not to lift her from the rightful burden the consequence of murder should bring her (which surely is more than therapy). When they say this woman is loved, they mean SHE is a human, here and now, why punish her for the loss of something not yet human, not yet loved?

Social Justice, at its heart, requires you to remove the very thing that makes us human, our unique contextuality. It strips us of individual agency and makes us easier targets for broad-based vilifications that justify the use of coercive action (including lying, acts of fraud, etc.) against unfavorably-viewed social groups.

While the Democrats compare a Voter ID law to Jim Crow laws, their notion of social justice over individual justice is far more in keeping with Jim Crowe laws, whose racially targeted laws presupposed a social-justice score on blacks that gave the whites special permission to use coercive means to prevent them from competing on the same general, predictable terms.

Race Vilification is ALWAYS the outcome of “social-based” justice, as opposed to individual-based justice. As I have explained in other MIA articles, social contextual circumstance is a factor when adjudicating within an individual-based justice framework, but when it BECOMES your justice framework, violence is sure to follow.

Once the state becomes the arbiter of social hierarchies, partisan violence is sure to follow (as it has across the world wherever “social justice” became the norm).

When we think in terms of “social justice,” we MUST remove the particular human from our gaze and replace it with the social human, and this comes after most of us Gen Xers grew up believing we were SUPPOSED to see past “race,” to see past “color,” to see past “sexual orientation,” and just discern people for who they are as individuals in our lives.

This was, and is, a very Americanist message, but one underpinned with language-war booby traps.

This anti-racist message was easily folded into our American ethos, especially as abortion had just been legalized when we were still toddlers, we Gen Xers. We grew up in a world where the word abortion in public was considered shocking in and of itself.

As the anti-racist narrative cemented in our minds, it created a heuristic of good apex existentiality as being anti-racists, and evil apex existentiality as being racists. We whites were well-conditioned to be sensitive to our own racist thoughts long before SJWs became the priests of the land.

Underneath it, though, abortion was becoming more and more normalized. The procedures were becoming quicker, less painful, less dangerous (but not without pain OR danger, as it still isn’t to this day).

The SJWs arrived with people conditioned to view racism and homophobia as the most evil thing a person could ever be. After this, they changed the definition of racism in the halls of colleges and universities to essentially mean “being white.” Anti-racists, the heroes, are the “POCs,” or People of color, or Non-Whites (even though Asians, who are also white, are also POC).

Underneath it all, the sub-humanization of the unborn child was making easy converts to an ideology that offered them cheat codes at the expense of neighbors they could now so easily sub-humanize. They had the power to convict their neighbors falsely, with accusations alone, if they were in a favored social group.

As the metaphorical bodies piled up, however, their neighbors began to notice they might be next, and the pushback began, as it always does in such conditions.

The SJW call is like the Absolom call in 2nd Samuel, Chapter 15. They stood outside our courts and told the people that if only they could judge they could give them justice. They selected their armies from among the perceived disenfranchised, the very people most open to destroying what is and welcoming their very different new social justice.

If you felt bullied by a manly man as a feminine boy, you now had a political weapon to destroy those manly men with, ESPECIALLY if they were white, ESPECIALLY if they were Heterosexual. If you felt sick and tired of hearing about Jesus Christ, you now had a political weapon to destroy your Christian neighbors with (ask them what they feel about gay marriage).

I could create a Horace-like ode of “If you felt…” parallelisms were I to invoke the vast list of “disgruntled adjutants” who would find great advantage in using this new political cudgel against now newly sub-humanized classes of people (which happen to be the vast majority of the people around them).

Take a pause and remember this: The culture I am describing was forced into the minds, bodies, and spirits of children, with penalties for non-compliance and rewards for extreme displays of the new orthodoxy (with transgendered POC children being the highest noble symbol of the new orthodoxy). This was done by the state, and my tax dollars helped fund it.

Whole careers have been made on the backs of cancelled wrong thinkers, and whole careers were never started because the people were in the wrong social class at that time.

Outside of that court, these women activists in this story will find political power in narratives that force them to reduce not only the new disenfranchised social classes but themselves to a character in a badly written play with transparent “villains” and “heroes” who ALL come across as really terrible people in the end.

They are forced into language games that create bad art, which is a sure sign your ideology does not sing with the human body at all. They said this woman is loved, but is she loved so much as fetishized as a political symbol, nothing more?

For all their bluster, one doubts the ladies championing her cause, or the white Progmerican ladies reading this story in full vapors mode, will lift one real finger to help this woman, with their own resources, get through such desperate times. They’ll write grants, they won’t write personal checks.

Now, Social Justice and Abortion Culture will only fuel one another, driving the abortion line past birth so that when a woman in the future decides to place her baby in a tub of water hoping the baby drowns and dies, she will be viewed as being brave for making the empowering choice. If you can’t afford the baby, abort the baby.

If you belong to a preferred social class, your status gives you a pass. If you belong to an undesired class, your status gives them an incentive to COMPEL YOU to abort your own as often and early as possible, but as late as needed. Either way, the pattern devolves into childlessness.

This woman who is “loved” by these activists will find herself living more and more in a world incapable of loving without getting state approval first, which is JUST the kind of culture our masters were hoping would emerge after normalizing murdering unborn children for largely contraceptive reasons alone.

Only Christ asks us to put Him over ourselves, yet social justice asks you to put the orthodoxy over family, which ultimately turns out to be “the party” (which will no doubt happen right here should the social justice faction finally “win”).

The spirit of abortion sowed the seeds for the spirit of social justice, and now social justice is fanning the flames of the spirit of abortion, which is only sure to return the favor (as it has already, in part, but the worse is yet to come). This vortex of violence spends itself out in self-immolation or when adults finally intervene and remove the children from the halls of power.

Either way, it is by God’s will that we walk, and thus by His will that our vessels of wrath continue to be allowed to inflict pain on us or be turned back, if not completely broken, by a rising Americanist spirit.

“As it is written, ‘For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.’ No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:36-39

A. WATER WARS – TRUMP’S GULF WAR MOMENT WITH IRAN

Michael Cessna reported on the Iran protests and riots that began at the end of 2025. This report first appeared in our January 16, 2026, issue. In that report, he identified the critical fail issue of Iran continues to be its mismanagement of its water supply.

Cessna wrote, “The broader implications of the regime’s corruption-driven failure in its water policy are a nightmare of inconceivable proportions waiting to happen. Iran has a population of about 92 million people. The possibility of massive displacement movements driven by thirst is very real and threatens to completely destabilize the entire region in ways not seen in living memory.

For outsiders, this is a highly dangerous situation, as it will completely up-end markets and investments, long before we factor in the raw security threats to personal and national safety. In the wider immediate, this situation directly threatens the viability of the Strait of Hormuz as a transit point for oil. In the broader scope, the potential closure of the Strait directly threatens the economies of the rest of the world.

This is not hyperbole. Despite the recent events in Venezuela, the South American state cannot make up the difference, despite its proven reserves, because a similar level of corruption and incompetence has left Venezuela with an oil infrastructure that is even more dilapidated than Iran’s.”

Ask yourself, where do you get your water supply from? Is it safe? If it’s not, what are you doing to make it safe? Our audience is mostly American, and in America few of us have reason to feel our regular water supply is being threatened (though the further West you go, the more that might not be true).

A more common problem in America is unsafe water. For that, we recommend you have an effective filtration system to keep your water safe.

  1. You could choose a sink hookup with these products:
  2. GE DUAL STORAGE UNDER SINK WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM WITH FAUCET
  3. PURE PLUS UNDER SINK WATER FILTER SYSTEM

iii. MOEN 4-STAGE UNDER SINK REVERSE OSMOSIS ADVANCED WATER FILTRATION SYSTEM

  1. You could also choose a filtration system NOT hooked up to your sink, like these:
  2. BIG BERKEY
  3. PUREWELL 3-STAGE ULTRA-FILTRATION SYSTEM
  4. TRANSITIONS – BECOMING CHINA

“The first recorded instance of book burning was in 213 BC, when Chinese emperor Qin Shi Huang decided to incinerate any history books that contradicted his version of the past. In addition, he buried more than four hundred scholars alive.”Susan Orlean (The Library Book)

Paul Gordon Collier wrote of the Qin-Han transition, “This is a successful transition in the context of its time, but it also serves as a warning that the base you inherit from the previous civilization which enables your unique build can also put a limit on your potential as it did here, with the Han continuing in the pattern of not pursuing understanding of the base of valuing, being, and thinking.

Ultimately, this preserved base value would allow the Chinese to one day be surpassed technologically by a civilization built on the presumption that existential questions were the most important ones to answer, though that civilization (which America is a part of) looks to be asking if it will long survive its current state.”

We kicked off our Transitions series in our January 23, 2026, edition, with an analysis of the fall of the first Empire and Dynasty of China, the Qin, and the rise of the second one, the Han Empire. Both Empires have at least one thing in common, they both rely on history documents to validate their rule.

As such, they are highly motivated to assure not only that they control the production of history documentation, but they also assure documents are changed or purged when the documents don’t align with the rulers.

Today, our media is increasingly becoming digital, meaning, should we not continue to produce and preserve physical media, our information reality will become a dream for any Qin or Han Emperor, who, with an order, can have whole catalogs of data purged or edited.

To that end, we are encouraging our readers to purchase physical media and, if you produce media, create physical versions of your media. Our publication is designed to be printed out, and we encourage our readers to not only print out the publication for your archives, but also copy it and share it with friends and family you think might find it useful.

Here are a few resources to find physical media, as well as information on where you can find more (and why you should buy physical media in the first place):

  1. Physical Media Vault – A site that sells harder to find physical media
  2. Where to Buy Physical Media – DVDs, CDs, Vinyl, and more – Cut off the Spigot
  3. Why I still buy physical media – and bought a $450 Blu-ray player in 2023 – Henry T. Casey (CNN)
  4. Physical Media is Dead, Long Live Physical Media – Maya Posch (Hackaday)

B. GLOBALIZATION IS OUT

In this issue’s Bellwether report, we analyzed the ramifications of the showdown at Davos, Switzerland between Trump’s America and the globalist elite. In that analysis, we showed that the new world order that gave power to the weak over the strong was over, and now, nations must scramble to provide for themselves their own sovereign-making power.

Howard Lutnick pointed out “Globalization has failed the West and the United States of America. It’s a failed policy. It is what the WEF has stood for, which is export offshore, far-shore, find the cheapest labor in the world and the world is a better place for it.”

To that end, we have a challenge for our readers, one we want to pick up for ourselves.  Learn more about 3D printing and how you might be able to use 3D printing now to create your own home manufacturing, at least in spirit. We will cover 3D printing in our Sustainability part of our Futureq series, which begins with a report on AI scheduled to be published in the February 20, 2026 issue of MIA.

The idea here is to establish a spirit of self-sovereignty that might be more gesture than substance at first but will lead to real substantive home manufacturing if you keep with the developments and keep learning how use 3D printers.

  1. TRAINING – Udemy offers a course on 3D printing called “3D Printing from Zero to Hero in Blender – FDM & MSLA.”

It is an online course that it says teach you (this is a partial list):

  • Model and Print with Confidence: Design and 3D print successfully from scratch.
  • Tap Free Resources: Discover where to find top-tier 3D printing assets.
  • Export STL Files: Prep models for flawless printing.
  • Slice and Generate G-Code: Control every detail of your print.
  • Design Efficiently: Create stunning 3D models fast.
  • Master Photo Scanning: Turn photos into printable 3D reconstructions.
  • Print Like a Pro: Use FDM and MSLA printers with ease.
  1. COMMUNITY – There are various opportunities in cities across America that offer 3D printing labs where you can learn how to use 3D printers and also then use those same 3D printers for your own projects. There is a membership fee.

Here is one in Philadelphia called NextFab:

“(from the site) A NextFab membership provides machinery, classes, community, and studio space for you to grow in your craft. We are constantly finding cutting-edge ways to combine digital technology with traditional tools. This multidisciplinary approach, combined with the physical space to make whatever you can imagine, is a whole new way to create.”

  1. PRINTER – Amazon has a list of Starter 3D Printers for as low as $199. These are basic 3D printers that offer intuitive user interfaces but not a lot of manufacturing power. Still, they can be cost-effective learning tools.

Here are some examples:

  1. Fully Assembled Mini 3D Printer for Kids & Beginners – $199
  2. FLASHFORGE Adventure 5M 3D Printer – $239

iii. ELEGOO Centauri Carbon 3D printer – $349.99

A. TRENDING

Covering the news cycle between January 1-30, 2026

  1. MURDER RATE PLUMMETS TO HISTORIC LOWS IN JUST ONE YEAR – Just one year into President Trump’s mass deportation operation, the murder rate in America dropped by a staggering 21% from 2024 to 2025. The murder rate has reached a low that hasn’t been seen since the records were first kept 125 years ago. The correlation between mass deportation and a massive drop in the murder rate cannot be dismissed, but more date would be needed to affirm causation beyond correlation.
  2. VANCE BLUNTS RINO EFFORT TO DISARM TRUMP’S FOREIGN POLICY – President Donald Trump needed VD Vance to stop the Senate from passing a bill that would handcuff President Trump’s military action in Venezuela. The Senate voted 50-50, with Vance casting the deciding vote in Trump’s favor. Had the bill passed it would have been vetoed, so the bill was a show bill intended to send Trump a message, but not one from the American people, one from the DNC-RINO party (which represents Progmerica, the competing nation within America that existentially opposes America).
  3. TRUMP DELIVERS “MARSHALL PLAN” FOR AMERICA WORTH $18 TRILLION – President Donald Trump is touting the $18 trillion in foreign investments in America, calling it America’s Martial plan. As The Federalist pointed out, that’s equivalent to 120 Marshall Plans. The Federalist also contrasted this “Marshall Plan” with the “Green” Martial plan that saw nation-states, including America, invest $20 trillion in a project to reduce carbon emissions that produced next to no substantive carbon emission reductions.
  4. TRUMP, MUSK RECONCILE AFTER MUSK PLEDGES SUPPORT FOR GOP IN 2026 – President Donald Trump and Elon Musk have officially reconciled their once-vitriolic differences, demonstrating that reconciliation ceremoniously at a Mar a Largo event. Musk said of the event, “Had a lovely dinner last night with @POTUS and @FLOTUS. 2026 is going to be amazing!”

This moment followed a post on X by Musk that telegraphed his position for the 2026 election, “America is toast if the radical left wins. They will open the floodgates to illegal immigration and fraud. Won’t be America anymore.”

  1. CBS INTERVIEW WITH TRUMP REVEALS NETWORK IS LOST TO PROGMERICA – After the hiring of Bari Weiss to remove the far-left propaganda from CBS News, doubt has remained as to just how hard Weiss would push and what she could accomplish. The jury is still out, but a recent interview by CBS News Anchor Tony Dokoupil of President Trump reveals a news standard that is aligned, once again, with Americanism.

Newsbusters’ assessment of the interview should please CBS News. They claimed, “The dust has settled on the second Trump interview of the Bari Weiss Era at CBS News. It is another positive step in the right direction, away from the usual talking point-laden gotchafests… Anchor Tony Dokoupil acquitted himself well, being firm but respectful. He brought questions, not talking points. He engaged, rather than scolded. This resulted in meaningful conversation, rather than performative confrontation.”

  1. DILBERT CREATOR FINDS CHRIST AT THE END OF LIFE – Dilbert cartoon creator and political philosopher Scott Adams died at the age of 68 of cancer. Just before his death, Adams made a public declaration of belief in Jesus Christ, the Savior of the World. While the media chose to slander him after his death, his fans celebrated his life, mourned his passing, and welcomed his acceptance of Christ as his savior.

Adams wrote, “If you are reading this, things did not go well for me. I have a few things to say before I go. My body failed before my brain. I am of sound mind as I write this January 1st, 2026…. So here I go: I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and look forward to spending an eternity with Him…”

B. DEPORTATION

  1. DHS SELF-DEPORTATION APP GETS SURGE IN TRAFFIC, ILLEGAL ALIENS GET GREATER INCENTIVE TO LEAVE – The Department of Homeland Security’s Self-Deportation app has seen a spike in traffic already compared to last year, when the app was first rolled out. So far, nearly 3 million illegal aliens have self-deported under Trump, according to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. That figure is expected to be more in the coming year based on the app’s initial traffic data for this year. The Trump administration has also increased the incentive to self-deport from $1000 to $2600.
  2. 50-YEAR NET MIGRATION STREAK ENDS IN U.S. UNDER TRUMP – For the first time in 50 years, the net migration in the U.S. has reached a deficit. The report by the Brookings Institute reveals the net deficit in migration is due to a combination of forced and voluntary deportations coupled with a precipitous decline in new entries. The Brookins Institute concluded, “Though a high degree of policy uncertainty remains, continued negative net migration for 2026 is also likely.”
  3. HERO ICE AGENT GETS OVER $1 MILLION IN SUPPORT AFTER INJURED BY LEFTIST INSURRECTIONIST – After ICE Agent Jon Ross was injured when a leftist insurrectionist hit him with her car, death threats came in from the insurrectionist’s fellow insurrectionists, along with condemnation by DNC party leaders, including the Minnesota Governor, Tim Walz, and the Minneapolis Mayor, Jacob Frey.

To help the agent recover from his injuries, as well as to deal with the security his family now needs due to DNC activists threatening to murder them, Americans started online campaigns to fund them. So far, the two major funds, GoFundMe and GiveSendGo, have exceeded $1 million in donations, a figure that continues to climb.

  1. NO MORE LOANS FOR ILLEGALS AFTER TRUMP ADMIN ENDS BIDEN RULE – The Consumer Finance Protection Bureau and the Justice Department removed regulations from the Biden era that ordered banks not to consider the immigration status of its borrowers. Under the guise of “anti-racism,” the Biden administration created these regulations. The move by the administration is sure to be challenged in the courts.

C. ELECTION

  1. SCOTUS OPENS FLOODGATES ON MASS MAILER ELECTION LAWSUITS – The United States Supreme Court voted 7-2 that candidates in elections have standing to sue over Mass Mailer Ballot rules. The ruling could finally create a legal challenge to the obviously unconstitutional practice of allowing elections to be conducted in ways that are clearly impossible to secure.

Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the decision, saying, “Candidates have a concrete and particularized interest in the rules that govern the counting of votes in their elections, regardless whether those rules harm their electoral prospects or increase the cost of their campaigns. Their interest extends to the integrity of the election — and the democratic process by which they earn or lose the support of the people they seek to represent.” The far-left insurrectionist judges, Sotomayor and Brown-Jackson dissented.

  1. TRUMP HAS 54-45 APPROVAL RATING AMONG HISPANICS – A new swing block in the 2024 election, the Hispanic vote only figures to be an even bigger one in the coming elections, which is good news for Trump. A Rasmussen Reports poll shows President Trump’s approval rating among Hispanics is plus nine, with 54% approving and 45% disapproving. This poll shows the narrative of ICE raids being anti-Hispanic or “brown” is a myth. Not even Hispanic Americans want illegals here, it would seem.

D. CULTURE

  1. CHARLIE KIRK’S DEATH LEADS AMERICANS TO BUY BIBLES – After the assassination of Charlie Kirk in September 2025, church attendance and public proclamations of Christ have surged. Now, data reported by the Wall Street Journal reveals bible sales following his assassination increased by 36% in September. The news follows overall trends towards increased bible sales, as well as printed book sales in general.
  2. FLORIDA SEES ABORTIONS PLUMMET BY 45% – Florida’s Agency for Healthcare Administration has revealed that abortion has declined in the state by 45% since 2021. Operation Rescue Chief Operating Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue, said of the news, “With the permanent closure of just nine clinics, the state of Florida saw a 45% reduction in the number of babies killed. This is a state with the third highest number of abortion clinics in the nation, right after California and New York.

The work is far from over, but more lives are saved every time a clinic closes its door for good. This is why our team works so diligently to expose abortion abuses and to call for the equal enforcement of safety and health regulations at the shoddy abortion businesses we constantly find breaking the law.”

  1. TWO MORE HOSPITALS ANNOUNCE CHILDREN’S GENDER TRANSITIONING PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN SHUT DOWN – Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego, CA has announced it will no longer conduct “gender affirming care” for children. They stated. “…these developments affect our role and responsibilities as a provider participating in federal programs such as Medicaid and Medicare. This was a very difficult decision, made to ensure we can continue serving all children and families across the communities we serve.”

Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital in Tacoma, WA has also announced it will be closing down its gender care clinic, stating, “This was an incredibly painful decision, and one that I wish we did not have to make. We recognize how important this care is to our gender health clinic patients and have a sense of the impact this will have on these patients and their families.”

For those who haven’t noticed, BOTH hospitals expressed regret they could not continue to offer children life-altering chemicals, and even surgeries, under the illusion that a child can “choose” their gender. Where possible, perhaps it is time to choose a hospital that doesn’t hold the philosophical view that a child can choose a gender, and doctors should help permanently alter them to satisfy that delusion.

  1. NY SURRENDERS ITS EFFORTS TO FORCE NUNS TO FUND ABORTIONS – After nearly 10 years of fighting and winning a SCOTUS decision, Christian organizations have finally officially won their fight to stop forcing religious organizations to fund abortions. New York has officially settled with the Christian organizations, guaranteeing they will no longer be forced to fund abortions.

One of the plaintiffs’ attorneys, Lori Windham, said of the settlement, “For nearly a decade, New York bureaucrats tried to strong-arm nuns into paying for abortions because they serve all those in need. At long last, the state has given up its disgraceful campaign. This victory confirms that the government cannot punish religious ministries for living out their faith by serving everyone. The Supreme Court has made it abundantly clear that religious groups shouldn’t be bullied for staying true to their faith.”

  1. ABORTION DRUG TRAFFICKERS SHUT DOWN BY NORTH DAKOTA – North Dakota’s Attorney General Drew Wrigley has served notice to an abortion drug trafficking organization, Prairie Abortion Fund. The pro-unborn-child-murder group has been “providing” the unborn baby murder pill to North Dakota residents in violation of its prescription drug laws.

Attorney General Wrigley stated, “Our BCI [Bureau of Criminal Investigation] was able to purchase abortion pills from websites promoted by Prairie Abortion Fund without providing any health information and without providing any verification of identity or age. These actions pose a significant health risk to pregnant women and facilitate the violation of North Dakota’s healthcare requirements, in part, by taking doctors out of the equation. As a North Dakota nonprofit corporation, by referring and actively linking to websites that unlawfully sells products, Prairie Abortion Fund lends credibility and trustworthiness to unlawful websites that otherwise would look much more suspicious.”

  1. POLITICAL TURMOIL DELIVERS DEFEAT TO FRENCH EUTHANASIA BILL – The state of French politics has helped defeat an end-of-life bill in their Senate that would have allowed doctors to euthanize patients. The bill was essentially allowed to die in the Senate after it had passed the National Assembly. Unfortunately, the euthanizers still have hope of bringing the bill back to the Senate if the National Assembly can fix the concern by some that, as written, it was too permissive.

E. HEALTH

  1. MAHA BREAKS THE BIG FOOD PYRAMID – HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has unveiled the department’s update to the previous food pyramid. The pyramid is replaced with a 10-page guide. The Secretary said of the guide, “The new guidelines recognize that whole, nutrient-dense food is the most effective path to better health and lower health care cost.”
  2. TRUMP ANNOUNCES GREAT HEALTHCARE PLAN – President Donald Trump announced a plan to bring down the cost of healthcare for every American. His program is called the “Great Healthcare Plan.” He outlined the heart of the plan, posting, “Instead of putting the needs of big corporations and special interests first, our plan finally puts you first. It puts more money in your pocket. The government is going to pay the money directly to you. It goes to you, and then you take the money and buy your own health care.”
  3. TRUMP SIGNS XO TO GET MENTALLY ILL OFF STREETS – President Trump has signed an executive order intended to get the severely mentally ill and chronic drug addicted homeless off the streets. He declared, “Signed an executive order to bring back mental institutions and insane asylums. We are going to have to bring them back. Hate to build those suckers but you’ve got to get the people off the streets”

The key part of the XO states, “Shifting homeless individuals into long-term institutional settings for humane treatment through the appropriate use of civil commitment will restore public order. Surrendering our cities and citizens to disorder and fear is neither compassionate to the homeless nor other citizens. My Administration will take a new approach focused on protecting public safety.”

INTRODUCTION

This is an opinion piece written in what MIA refers to as the “prophetic voice.” This voice is intended to express an Americanist spiritual understanding (or an attempt to understand in a spiritual context) the actions this opinion piece is analyzing.

Spirit here simply means a habit of being born from core presuppositions. For the Americanist, that core presupposition is that state and corporate power should be limited by the “right” of the individual to be self-stewarded, not coerced into “belief” as defined by the state and/or the corporation.

I am analyzing the underlying spiritual realities from a primarily Americanist perspective, from the perspective of a people who value individual self-stewardship over protecting people from offensive or untrue thought. I am specifically looking at the dramatic actions by the Democrat Party immediately after taking power in Virgina following an election that openly rewarded calls for political violence.

A. TAKING POWER

Through multiple bills and executive orders, the Insurrectionist State of Virginia hopes to make itself a blue fortress shielding its Progmerican citizens from Federal authority, ESPECIALLY its illegal alien Progmerican citizens, who (to them) are the righteous wrath of the world against the unjust Americans, White Supremacists all.

Lawsuits are sure to follow quickly, but already Virginia is set to become a violent land not unsimilar to California, Washington, Oregon, Minnesota, and a growing list of blue-run states lurching into political violence and anarchy, intentionally.

  1. REWARDING POLITICAL DEATH THREATS – In our November 2025 Report, The DNC is Not Yet Dead, we reported on the stunning results of that Virginia election. THIS is what Virginia voted for:

The buzz about early voting initially not going great for the Democrats proved to be a false hope for Americans as the state overwhelmingly voted for violence in politics by electing a governor who wouldn’t condemn it and the highest law man in the land who also openly advocated for it.

Another abortion extremist, Abigaile Spanberger, can now be seen as the face of the white, suburban, female child murderer voter. Her refusal to condemn her fellow party member, Jay Jones, for texting he wanted to murder his republican opponents’ kids in front of him, matched the spirit she showed in defending unborn child murder up to birth. The only people abortionists don’t want you to kill are murderers and rapists. Charlie Kirk? Yes. Child rapist-murderer? No.

Now, Virginia’s Governor and Attorney General have openly advocated for terrorism, yet the DOJ refuses to arrest them after committing such an obvious crime. If you are not a progressive and you live in Virginia, 57% of your neighbors just voted to murder you. Your state leaders support your execution should you dare speak in public against them.

Spanberger beat Winsome Earle-Sears 57% to 43%. Jay Jones beat the incumbent DA 53% to 47%. Voter turnout was 55%, with only 10% being from mail-in ballots. This means, as I stated earlier, Virginia TRULY VOTED FOR TREASON. Virginia may be the first state to openly vote for political assassinations in the history of our republic, a republic they just voted against.

One could argue that the majority of Viriginia’s voters in 2025 openly committed an act of treason against our republic (though not a charge I’d ever support attempting to enforce beyond core leadership targets).

One would be correct in that assumption if they view reality through an Americanist lens. You have no right to vote for political murder as you clearly did in Virginia. This is crime of the highest order.

  1. BUILDING THE BLUE FORTRESS, HOME OF POLITICS BY VIOLENCE – Over two months later, the Democrats have now taken over. They came in under an explicit approval of political violence by Virginia voters. Their reward is a slate of new bills and executive orders that will deliver to those who voted for this dystopian reality the economic and security hardships they certainly deserve. To the rest of Virginians, our condolences for your losses. Let us hope they are temporary.

Here are some of their worst proposed bills:

Softening sentencing rules for robbers.

Eliminate ballot hand-counting to assure easier election fraud.

Ban gas-powered leaf blowers.

Free Education for Illegal Aliens

Ban Arresting Illegal Aliens in courthouses

Add 4.3% Delivery Tax affecting all Deliveries, Including Amazon, Uber, and Door Dash.

“Protects” Transgender children from parental resistance

There are numerous new gun control laws proposed, and abortion will be legalized up to the birth of the child.

You can also expect Virginia Public schools to once again tell children that white babies are born with sin skins to a white race that invented evil. They will also be told that the whole world must come together to end the white devil’s tyranny.

You can also expect Virginia public schools to once again tell children they should ponder what gender they are and what gender(s) they might like to have sex with.

Science is dead in Virginia, as are safe spaces for children, who soon will no longer be safe in their schools as they were when the Progmericans were reined in under Glenn Youngkin. Children will soon longer be safe in their own communities as crime will explode in the cities as local DNC and state DNC insurrectionist leaders can more directly work together to continue to foment arrest in America’s cities (no doubt intentionally).

Expect the professional rioters to thug freer on the streets in Virginia cities once the Blue Fortress of Virginia is established (which should take about 3 months). Criminals are righteous scourges on an unrighteous land to the blue acolyte. This is why they don’t charge them, and when the police do, they release them and fail to prosecute them.

B. A SOBERING REALITY FOR AMERICANS TRAPPED IN VIRGINIA

If some of our readers find themselves in Virginia, we hope you have been building your own hope exits, and, when possible, even your own Hope Castles, for things are about to get tough for you, ESPECIALLY if you have children. Homeschooling might be the only option at this point, for the children of Virginia are about to be set upon by the predators called “teachers” (college-indoctrinated anti-American revolutionary activists), who will now be unleashed, protected by state laws.

If you cannot afford to homeschool, check to see if other parents are having the same problem. This writer assumes there will be efforts to create homeschool networks to allow parents to pool their resources so they can rescue their children from state-inflicted psychological terrorism. If there aren’t, maybe you’re the one to start it.

Virginia is a land filled with Americans who now find themselves behind enemy lines. As much as we can, we hope to offer solutions to those Americans on how to build hope exits right where you are. On July 10, 2026, we are scheduled to release our full Hope Exit Series updated and supplemented.

It contains a breakdown of the essential needs of people and communities and solutions that free you from dependence on a system that wants you dead (and believe me, Virginia’s Democrats WANT Americans dead, even if just through attrition).

Write to us at MIAMailroom@gmail.com if you’re in Virginia. Tell us what you’re doing to prepare and what you might need to help you prepare.

SUMMARY

In the second installment of our Transition series, the Qin Dynasty inflicted a great burden on a people who were rewarded for that pain with security and expansion. But when the conquest ended, so too did the tolerance for the pain being inflicted upon the people. The Han rose on the literal corpse of the Qin Dynasty, preserving the core while destroying the parts that greatly oppressed the people.

Here, the core of the Spangenberger Empire is still Americanism. It is their legitimacy claim to power. They continue to attempt to use language that is outwardly keeping with Americanism even if its spirit is a dagger aimed at her heart.

Their conquest, though, is not over, for they are merely newly gained territory for the Progmerican Empire as a whole, an Empire DYING to shake off its American mask and speak plainly the language of the Prog.

They are the legalists of their time, aiming to use rigid anti-moral moral supremacism to assure no one even THINKS outside the official orthodoxy EVEN in the privacy of their own home.

So long as there is hope for future conquest, those true blues, the true progs of Virginia, will happily endure their temporary hardships, and they’ll happily endure others suffering far more profoundly than them, even up to their neighbors being imprisoned.

The same goes for the MSM-attached TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome) Progmericans who still think THEY are the true American patriots because they LITERALLY think we Americans, ESPECIALLY the MAGAs, are LITERAL NAZIS! No joke.

I cannot emphasize enough how psychotic, how detached from reality this class of people truly has become. They are more likely to commit violence than even the true blues, the Antifas, are.

For Virginians, I can’t offer you much immediate hope. Your enemies, your own neighbors, are only going to become even more emboldened, more hostile. But for those outside the war zone, Virginia is about to win over a lot of “normies” who will see for themselves yet another apocalyptic transformation of a state given over to the full blue program, unfettered by the constitution.

For Virginians, there is hope, even if not immediately, but that will come only from the Federal government exposing the DNC-CCP conspiracy that has inflicted this land for decades. This will undo ALL DNC power in this land, for a few generations to come, at least.

Let us hope our leaders find the strength to carry through with the prosecutions necessary to end Progmerica’s reign of terror on America, and thus on Virginia as well.

“‘And they shall come back here in the fourth generation, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete.’” – Genesis 15:16

For our fellow Christian readers, let us remember that vengeance is the Lord’s, and our Kingdom does not advance through violence. A nation that continues to embrace child sacrifice, abortion, must rely on God’s patience, for surely mercy is not given to the unrepentant, but even the Amorites had four more generations of patience given to them before God used the Israelites as a righteous scourge on a child-sacrificing land.

Let us hope and pray first for America’s emergent, consensual repentance, and secondly for God’s patience with our unrighteous land, with the hope that our working out the Great Commandment and Great Commission, through the Holy Spirit, will lead us to that repentance.
