Tony Seruga on X: "🚨FBI probing classified Trump-Russia evidence in ‘burn bags,' including from Comey, memo reveals
Speculation has swirled about how the five burn bags ended up in Room 9582, but the official FBI investigative summary provides a clearer picture.  According to the report, the classified records were deliberately moved into the dormant SCIF sometime in the narrow window surrounding President Trump’s second inauguration in January 2025.   The report describes the operation as:“…a hasty and chaotic effort by certain employees to collect senior management officials’ records in advance of the anticipated transition of a new team of FBI executives taking control after the presidential inauguration.”  In other words, as the outgoing leadership and their staffs faced the imminent arrival of Kash Patel and the new Trump-appointed team, a small group of holdover or recently departed personnel scrambled to round up sensitive Crossfire Hurricane-related files, handwritten notes, hard drives, and other materials from former seventh-floor offices.   Rather than properly archiving them or turning them over during the transition, they stuffed the documents into burn bags intended for destruction and stashed the bags inside the little-used SCIF (Room 9582), presumably hoping they would either be forgotten or later destroyed without a trace once the new administration was in place.  The plan failed when Patel’s team discovered the bags in April 2025.  It is also telling that several of the most sensitive records were “FBI Prohibited Access Files.”    “Prohibited Access” means routine searches in the FBI database turn up false negatives.  In other words, the highly sensitive records exist, but a search of the FBI records system returns zero hits. It’s like the ultimate, bureaucratic black hole.  The most important document of all is a CIA intelligence referral dated SEPT 7, 2016.  Its subject is the 2016 U.S. presidential election.     Sent to then FBI Director Comey, the CIA referral was believed to be missing for several years.    The FBI report’s finding is beyond stunning.  The CIA referral was found in a storage closet “adjacent to the (FBI) Director’s Office.”      Comey has testified that “he was unfamiliar with (the CIA referral) as well as its related intelligence.”  The accuracy of this Comey testimony also appears to be in doubt.  My money is on Peter Strzok being the culprit."

Chief Nerd on X - "🚨 Fmr. Harvard president Claudine Gay says the Trump administration is “destroying knowledge institutions because they are centers of independent thought and information”"
Jonatan Pallesen on X - "Reminder that in Claudine Gay's most famous paper, she removed two crucial data points going against her hypothesis without any given reason. They were present in her PhD thesis, but in the published paper they were mysteriously gone. You can see that it's the two that had increased turnout.  I have mailed and asked her about these disappearing points, but have not received a reply."

MAGA Storm on X - "🚨 JUST IN: Kavanaugh and Alito just BLEW UP the “independent commission” scheme — and the left is FREAKING OUT because this is a monster win for President Trump.  They didn’t tiptoe around it either. The core issue was brutal and direct: can Congress just slap “independent” on any Cabinet office and basically CANCEL a president’s authority?  Kavanaugh flat-out rejected that nonsense: “Independent agencies aren’t accountable to the people. They’re not elected. Yet they’re exercising MASSIVE power over liberty and billion-dollar industries.”  Turley put it perfectly — Kavanaugh and Alito shredded every argument thrown at them. Can Congress make ANY department “independent”? Can they hand out 20-year terms? Every time the justices pushed, the defenders folded like paper.  This is the Supreme Court reminding D.C. exactly who controls the executive branch.  Trump needed this. And he just scored big."

Meme - Give a Shift About Nature: "Why is there $40 billion for Argentina but no money for Americans?"
Jason Riggins: "It was a $20B currency swap, that we made money on..."
"Because it was a currency exchange facility which the US made $4b on."
Left wingers don't understand the difference between a loan and a grant, so of course they don't know what derivatives are. But then they rage at billionaires borrowing against assets because they supposedly don't pay taxes on that "income".

Rob Reiner Attacks Rush Limbaugh as Purveyor of 'Disinformation' Day After His Death - "A day after Rush Limbaugh died, Hollywood filmmaker Rob Reiner attacked the late conservative radio host as a purveyor of disinformation, saying that Americans must protect democracy from others like him.  Rob Reiner launched his social media attack on the late Limbaugh by calling him a liar, warning that other conservative media personalities are trying to deny climate change.  “To protect our Democracy we must remain vigilant in calling out their big lies. Starting with climate change,” he wrote. Reiner is the latest left-wing Hollywood elite to attack Limbaugh following news of his death yesterday. The 70-year-old conservative radio legend died after a battle with lung cancer, his wife revealed.  Stars including Ron Perlman, John Cusack, Rosanna Arquette and celebrity couple Amber Tamblyn and David Cross hurled nasty insults at the late Limbaugh, variously wishing that he rots in hell and spends eternity with the devil.  Other establishment leftists and mainstream media personalities joined the pile-on, describing Limbaugh as a “bigot” and accusing him of “hateful commentary.”Last year, Reiner expressed his unequivocal hatred of Limbaugh when the radio host received the Medal of Freedom during President Trump’s State of the Union address to Congress.  “I loathe this fucking man,” Reiner tweeted."
Meme - Rob Reiner: "Rush Limbaugh is gone. But there is no scarcity of purveyors of disinformation left in his wake. To protect our Democracy we must remain vigilant in calling out their big lies. Starting with climate change."
According to left wingers, Reiner was classy and a lovely man, despite frothing with hatred about Trump and celebrating Rush Limbaugh's death. And they're still pretending that Trump being snarky about Reiner was much much worse than left wingers celebrating Charlie Kirk's death

RedWave Press on X - "Brianna Lyman on President Trump’s name being added to the Kennedy Center: “I personally don’t care that much, but I do find it funny, Paul, that you care and that the Kennedys care because no one in your party cared in 2020 when you guys were changing names of hospitals, parks, schools, streets, everything in the name of George Floyd.”   “Wikipedia has an entire page called ‘list of name changes due to the George Floyd protests.’ It is the longest Wikipedia page I’ve ever seen. So people who are up in arms about name changes now were mostly silent. The second point I’d make, I think it’s really disingenuous for the Kennedys and for anyone to sit here and pretend like they care so much about the Kennedy Center because I don’t know how many of you guys have been to the Kennedy Center prior to Donald Trump taking office.”  “I was there in 2023. I wasn’t a VIP box. That should be pretty nice. The seats were stained. I literally sat down, I was like, is this wet? Is this fresh? The floors were dirty. This is a place that was decrepit. And all of this on top of people getting exorbitant salaries. So people who were running the Kennedy Center or who claimed to love and care about the Kennedy Center said nothing when it was falling into disrepair, and President Trump comes in, they are renovating, they cut salaries that were needlessly high, they’re bringing people to come and see the arts for once. It was not that lively of an institution under the Biden administration. So don’t pretend like you care about the Kennedy Center now when you were quiet when it was falling into disrepair.”"

ⁿᵉʷˢ Barron Trump 🇺🇸 on X - "🚨 BREAKING: Secretary Marco Rubio is EVISCERATING Democrat lawmakers for flat out LYING about his private briefings on the narco strikes.  He spelled it out.  They sit in the briefing. They ask their questions. They get answers. Then they walk out and tell the public they heard nothing and saw nothing.  Total dishonesty.  Rubio exposed it. They already had their narrative before they walked in. The briefings are just a formality to them and he still does them anyway.  He also made it clear he has personally spoken with leaders in Congress and everyone knows exactly what is happening and why.  Congress has been fully informed. The strikes are justified. The Democrats are lying on purpose.  Rubio is not playing games anymore."

Spencer Hakimian on X - "Judge April Perry blocks Trump from deploying troops to Chicago. “The Founders would never believe that one state militia could be sent to another state for the purposes of political retribution.""
Stephen Miller on X - "1. A federal judge seems not to know that federal troops come from many different states. They are, again, federal troops on a federal protective mission.
2. Using the phrase “political retribution” to describe defending the lives and safety of ICE officers from domestic terrorism is utterly appalling.
3. Imagine thinking the Founders would be in favor of the border invasion of 20 million illegals."

Tony Seruga on X - "“As jurors, we have an enormous amount of power to decide whether this administration and its agenda are right or wrong.” - Alex Dodds, Co-founder of Free DC  That statement should chill anyone who understands how juries are supposed to function. Jurors are not there to judge administrations. They are not there to advance agendas. They are there to determine guilt or innocence based on facts and law.  When someone openly reframes jury duty as political resistance, they are confessing to corruption of the judicial process."

Will Stancil: "Sort of the core principle of democracy is that you can't get to 51% and then change the rules so you win every election forever. It's not that the founding

fathers and prior presidents didn't think of this obvious strategy. But Trump has decided to go for it, he doesn't care"

Michael Shellenberger on X - "Days before last year’s election, the media claimed Trump wanted to kill Liz Cheney, which we debunked at the time. @BBC has now admitted it was a lie. @CNN should do the same. Notably, BBC & CNN have, for years, promoted censorship of their competitors for “misinformation.”"
Misinformation is anything that threatens the left wing agenda

Robert Sterling on X - "Donald Trump sat for a two-hour interview with the New York Times last night.  With not just one reporter or two. But four.  No handlers at his side screening out hard questions. No note cards with softball questions written down in advance.  Just two hours with four hostile reporters.  Biden and Kamala never did this. It’s laughable to think about them trying. Their press aides had them locked down like Fort Knox, and even sympathetic reporters (which were most of them) never got unfiltered access.  Whether you love Trump or hate him, you’ve got to respect this. There’s no one else like the guy, and there probably never will be again."

Jeff J Hunter | Facebook - "I study marketing for a living. And I've never seen anything like what I'm watching right now. Trump has pulled off the impossible. He's gotten his OPPONENTS to build their entire identity around him. 🤯 Think about that for a second. Not his supporters. His HATERS. There are people right now — millions of them — who wake up every single day with one thought: "What did Trump do today that I can be mad about?" Their social media bios? Anti-Trump. Their profile pictures? Mocking Trump. Their conversations at dinner? About Trump. Their protest signs? His face. He's living rent-free in their heads. And they're paying the utilities. 😂 As a marketer, this is fascinating. As a human being, it's terrifying. Because here's what happens when you make hating someone your whole personality... You become easy to manipulate. The radicalization pipeline is real. And I'm watching it play out in Minneapolis right now. Step 1: Tell people Trump is literally Hitler. Step 2: Tell people his agencies are "Gestapo." Step 3: Tell people resistance is a moral duty. Step 4: Anyone who supports Trump/ICE is fascist. Step 5: Tell people violence against "fascists" is justified. Step 6: Watch ordinary people throw their lives away blocking federal agents and attacking conservatives. A woman is dead this week. Not because she was being deported. Not because ICE was after her. She was a U.S. citizen who put herself in the middle of an operation that had nothing to do with her. Why? Because someone convinced her she was fighting Nazis. That's not activism. That's a cult. 🚨 And the cult leaders? They're not at her funeral. They're not raising her kids. They're on BlueSky and GoFundMe calling her a "martyr" and collecting donations. You know what I've noticed about these movements? There's always a professional class running them. Community organizers. Union leaders. Activist networks with funding most startups would kill for. They train people. They coordinate nationwide. They bus people in. Some of them literally get PAID to protest. And they've figured out how to weaponize people's emotions against a single man. It's the most effective negative branding campaign in human history. But here's the dark part... The people at the top stay safe. The people at the bottom take the bullets. Every. Single. Time. Here's what blows my mind about the left's strategy... Every industry that shapes culture is dominated by them: ✅ Media ✅ Entertainment ✅ Education ✅ Comedy ✅ Journalism ✅ Community organizing They control the microphone. And yet... One guy from Queens has them ALL talking about him. Every late-night host. Every professor. Every journalist. Every comedian. Every activist. All day. Every day. For a decade straight. He doesn't even have to do anything anymore. They do his marketing FOR him. The protests? Free advertising. The outrage? Free engagement. The resistance? Proof he's still relevant. They can't stop. They won't stop. Because at this point... They don't know who they are WITHOUT him. That's the real tragedy here. Not just the woman who died in Minneapolis. But the millions of people who've handed over their identity to hating one man. Who've let rage become their entire personality. Who've been convinced that blocking federal agents is heroism. And who will do it again. And again. Until more people die. Because the organizers told them to. Trump broke something in this country. Or maybe he just exposed what was already broken. Either way... Crazy to think we've got 3 more years of this🤣"

Don Harrop on X - "The LIBS are melting down because Trump flipped someone off, but they were oddly quiet when Joe Biden went on multiple rampages during the 2020 campaign. Weird how that works!"

Janet Elaine Parks | Facebook - "TRUTH CHECK: We Don’t “Worship” Trump… We’re Just Tired of a Media Double Standard..
One of the biggest lies people repeat about Trump supporters is this:
“You people worship him.”
“You are in a CULT”
No. Most of us are doing something far more normal than that.. We’re defending the president we voted for… because we’ve watched the media treat him in a way they simply do not treat other presidents… Criticism is fair… Scrutiny is fair. What’s not fair is when the rules change depending on the name… Now This is the part where people tend to resort to saying things like “well that is just not true” So let’s talk facts…
First: the claim that the media isn’t uniquely negative toward Trump is not true… Pew Research Center studied coverage of Trump’s first 60 days and found that 62% of stories were negative… Pew also found that was about three times more negative than Obama’s early coverage (20%), and roughly twice as negative as Bush and Clinton (28% each). (Pew Research Center, Oct 2, 2017.)  And Pew later compared early coverage of Biden and found it was far more mixed: 32% negative, 23% positive, and 45% neither positive nor negative. (Pew Research Center, Apr 28, 2021.)  That’s not “conservative feelings.” That’s content analysis…
Even media watchdog groups have quantified the tone… The Media Research Center claimed 92% negative network evening news coverage of Trump’s first 100 days. (Media Research Center analysis, reported Apr 29, 2025.) I’m not saying you have to trust MRC as your only source ..I’m saying the broader pattern aligns with what Pew found too: the negativity toward Trump is measurable…
Now let’s talk about how this double standard plays out in real life…
Example one: immigration enforcement. People talk like “ICE doing home operations” is some new evil that only exists under Trump. That’s not true… Under Obama, ICE carried out multi-state home raids too, including a January 2016 operation where immigration authorities arrested more than 120 people in raids targeting Central American families with removal orders…. It was reported nationally at the time… (Associated Press, Jan 14, 2016.)  So the concept of interior enforcement and home arrests wasn’t invented in 2025 or 2026… The difference is that when Obama did it, many people framed it as “enforcing the law,” and when Trump does it, the language escalates into “Nazis,” “kidnapping,” and “Gestapo.”
Now Anne Frank and the holocaust is the newest “parallel”
That’s not policy debate …that’s propaganda framing.. and it is outrageous..
Example two: press access and “transparency.” Trump gets labeled “secretive” and “corrupt” nonstop, but on the basic question of press availability, he’s objectively more accessible…. Multiple outlets reporting on a National Journal tally said Trump took 1,009 questions from reporters in his first month of his second term, compared with 141 questions for Biden in his first month, and 161 for Obama in his first month. (CBS Austin report, Feb 26, 2025; based on National Journal analysis.)  Meanwhile we all watched Biden walk away multiple times in the middle of press conferences.. but I can not recall a single time a reporter criticized him about it.. You don’t have to like Trump to admit the obvious: answering far more press questions is not the behavior of someone “hiding.”
Example three: Biden’s condition and media accountability.. After Biden’s debate performance in 2024, as well as other incidents we had seen… major outlets rarely reported or addressed his obvious signs of decline on camera.. Biden looked confused in many ways, answered questions in strange ways, referring to himself as senator multiple times… it was obvious.. Yet, VP Harris and othet officials denied it.. Meanwhile, Trump’s cognitive fitness has been questioned constantly for years.. even when no comparable “official report moment” existed in the same way…
That contrast is exactly why people feel gaslit…
And then there’s the bigger pattern:
Trump is treated as uniquely illegitimate, uniquely criminal, uniquely dangerous.. even when he’s using tools, authorities, or enforcement approaches that presidents in both parties have used…
So no, we don’t “worship” Trump…
We’re pushing back against a system that tells us:
When our side does something, it’s evil.
When their side does the same thing, it’s normal.
When Trump wins, it’s hysteria.
When they win, it’s “democracy.”
Fair reporting doesn’t mean “never criticize Trump.” It means criticize him accurately, with evidence, consistently …and apply the same standard to everyone else… Because if the media wants trust back, the answer isn’t more labels… It’s fairness.. which is ALL we want.
Faith. Family. Freedom."

Jonatan Pallesen on X - "The largest Danish left-wing party looked to be losing the upcoming election, but have now had a large bump due to Trump's Greenland posturing. He had the same effect on the Canadian election. And the election in Australia. Quite possibly there is no person who has had as detrimental an effect on right-wing political success across The West as Trump. These are very important times, with the spectre of mass immigration hanging over all of The West. It's not the time to fuck around in this way."
When you know left wing governments weaken countries, so you can benefit

Chad Mizelle on X - "Let’s talk Judicial Lawfare. Over 4 years of the Biden administration, 9 district court rulings against the administration were later overturned on appeal. About 2.25 per year. In 2025 alone, the first year of President Trump’s second term, 32 District Judges have issued 133 rulings against the Trump administration that were stayed or overturned on appeal. Simplified, District Judges are now issuing rulings that ultimately fail on appeal at more than 50x the rate compared to the previous presidency. And for the record, when these cases reach the Supreme Court, President Trump’s win rate is roughly 90%."
The cope is that higher judges are biased and need to be purged

Cynical Publius on X - "Let me break this down in as basic a manner as I can:
1. America elects a President that the Democrat/Media Complex does not like.
2. Democrats engage in violent riots over whatever their otherwise perfectly legal cause du jour might be.
3. "See? The fact that this guy is President is causing riots. If you vote for us this abnormal rioting that the President is causing will stop."
4. Democrats win next election. Riots stop.
