    Anyway, watch out about Trump. Not only because he's proven by now to be Israel's puppet (and consequently the cabal's puppet), but he's becoming more unhinged with each passing week. This will not end well for the west.
    Trump's support of Fauci and Trump's Operation Warpspeed appeared to show Trump as Big Pharma's puppet (and consequently the cabal's puppet).

    ... in the end that might result in the end of Big Pharma, vaccines, Satanic control of our health care deeply embedded in our culture, institutions, ...

    Yes, there were mass casualties - dead and wounded.

    Could you have done any better? Can you even imagine how it could have been done better ... fewer casualties and greater likelihood of the demise of Big Pharma, Big "Health", Big Sickness and Death, ... feasting on humanity like a pack of rabid wolves?

    Could the same be playing out with deeper, longer standing, financial, military, intelligence, propaganda, colonization, institutions of politics and religion, education, science, technology, energy, ... roots of the cabal into human civilization, ... as concentrated in the thousands of years of religious, financial, monetary, cultural, racial and tribal warfare, enslavement, invasion and colonization in the "Near" and "Middle" East?

    Trump's on a roll far as I can tell. When he's not brokering ceasefires between Pakistan and India, Iran and Israel, and Congo and Rwanda, he's dominating Europe and making all those feckless leaders at NATO pony up 5% towards defense spending (they're literally calling him "Daddy" over there LOL). Oh and Pakistan is backing him for the Nobel Peace Prize.

    The Supreme Court just ruled in his favor, preventing the district courts from blocking his agenda. That means we'll be chucking illegals at warp speed and ending birthright citizenship soon hopefully.

    He got a nice minerals deal with the Congo while he was at it btw(let's not forget the minerals deal with Ukraine too).

    Nasdaq hit record highs yesterday, inflation is down and stable..

    Border crossings down to almost nothin.

    Oh and he just blew up Iran's nuclear facilities.

    If that's deep state leadership, give me more of that!

    @Pythonic - Unfortunately, most people don't want to consider possibilities that deep. Easier to believe Occum's Razor is some brilliant idea, and cling to whichever simple explanation that first comes to mind which fits in with their desired belief system.

    --------------

    For the Iran strikes, it could just be taking out their ability to mass produce Nuclear supplies and/or weapons. I think far more countries than acknowledged have a few nukes on hand that they have bought from others. Although a few nukes aint gonna do much good with our anti missile tech, laser, emp and secret weapons. Then right after those warheads are taken out the top countries can literally launch dozens of missiles simultaneously in retaliation, some nuclear, some not. Decoy features as well.

    The whole event seemed off to me. I honestly think they have deep underground structures that bunker busters cant reach.

    GBU-57A/B MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator)

    Weight: 30,000 lbs (13,600 kg)

    Warhead: ~5,300 lbs (2,400 kg) of high explosives

    Penetration Capability:

    Reinforced concrete: ~60–200 feet (~18–61 meters)

    Hard rock (granite): ~40–130 feet (~12–40 meters)


    Not hard to have 100m of protection by building into and under a mountain.

    I have a source who says that it was really about Iran and their Secret Weapons. Possibly something like Looking glass tech. Who knows.

    Maybe it was just a money thing for the weapons manufacturers. Let both side launch some missiles to keep spending money on weapons.

    Yesterday's RJ Talks brief News Report...

    Trump Just ENDED Another War as DRC to Nominate for Noble Peace Prize (14:29)



    Quote President Trump brokers the end to another war, this time between the DRC and Rwanda. On track to be nominated for Nobel Peace Prize.
    start... 54 secs - Trump talks about brokering peace - Democratic Republic of the Congo very grateful after many millions of deaths and displacements... MSM ignore it all rather than give Trump any good publicity -

    6:25 - Iran Ayatollah makes public statement about victory for Iran - Trump responds strongly saying that he (Trump) vetoed his assassination and also stopped a huge Israeli bombing campaign on Iran that would have resulted in many deaths...

    10:24- ripple effects of the Supreme Court Ruling that disallows State judiciary from overruling President's nationwide policy - RJ brings up the point that this could be a double edged sword if the Democrats won a future election..?

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    my comments - imagine how many decades Globalists must have been getting their puppets into position as judges all across America - (and other Western Nations) it must be the foundation - the main operation on which everything else they do... rests.. to take over countries - to cover their own backs but to manipulate policy and side line the citizens / voters ... no wonder they are sending out their army of 'employees' to try and claw back power that's slipping away -

    while Congressman Thomas Massie (in an ideal world) has a good point about getting Congressional approval for 'war' + bombing - the Cabal has infiltrated Congress with inferior obedient candidates, especially re the Democrat Party - that answer to them - work for them ....so it's difficult to see how those people are going to be able to make good and independent decisions ....? (about anything) ... that's the catch...

    Infiltration and collusion of the Globalist Cabal is so widespread it's astonishing how much Trump is achieving given the circumstances -

    It is terrible what they are doing in Israel to Bibi Netanyahu. He is a War Hero, and a Prime Minister who did a fabulous job working with the United States to bring Great Success in getting rid of the dangerous Nuclear threat in Iran. Importantly, he is right now in the process of negotiating a Deal with Hamas, which will include getting the Hostages back. How is it possible that the Prime Minister of Israel can be forced to sit in a Courtroom all day long, over NOTHING (Cigars, Bugs Bunny Doll, etc.). It is a POLITICAL WITCH HUNT, very similar to the Witch Hunt that I was forced to endure. This travesty of “Justice” will interfere with both Iran and Hamas negotiations. In other words, it is INSANITY doing what the out-of-control prosecutors are doing to Bibi Netanyahu. The United States of America spends Billions of Dollar a year, far more than on any other Nation, protecting and supporting Israel. We are not going to stand for this. We just had a Great Victory with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu at the helm — And this greatly tarnishes our Victory. LET BIBI GO, HE’S GOT A BIG JOB TO DO!

    thats an interesting post. although, those kinds of things don't really tell us much.

    Netanyahu is likely gonna be gone soon, so is this trial going to overthrow him? Does Trump know if they will not stop going after him? Sure hope he would then use that as an excuse to stop funding Israel .

    Hard to know if there is any legitimacy for accomplishments with Hamas , more than just freeing hostages.

    Maybe its more important to look good to power players than the switched on people. Or maybe he is doing something crappy in this case.

    ______________

    gotta love how it was all 3 democrats who are all women to make up some BS nonsense to try and vote against precedence. Not surprised. They are just playing off the liberal woke agenda where they can make words mean anything. lol

    When are the woke liberals gonna fight for my right to get Thai citizenship since thais(tais) are from Southern China and stole this land from the hill tribes therefore, its a nation of immigrants and must let everyone in. They can protest for the middle east, should be enough to protest for me since there are so many activists.

    I see Trump sent another reminder to the world today to follow Netanyahu’s trial.

    He makes the praise over the top so it goes viral and people still don’t get it.

    Never forget Trump posted a video explaining all the endless wars in Iraq and Syria, etc. came from Netanyahu.

    Netanyahu “is STILL trying to get us to fight Iran to this day”

    Nothing is what it seems.


    (my comments)


    (for a brief review of some of the 9/11 Mossad involvement evidence , see his first few posts currently at the top of his X feed. I also suspect Trump knows some things about this as well, but the time for disclosure is not ripe yet.)

    Bibi Fumes After IDF Soldiers Confirm Lethal Weapons Routinely Used On Crowds At Gaza Aid Sites

    by Tyler Durden
    Saturday, Jun 28, 2025 - 08:25 PM
    Soon after the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) began distributing aid to war-torn Gaza in May, disturbing reports emerged of Israeli soldiers killing unarmed Palestinians approaching aid points for food. As the world's eyes turned from Gaza to Israel attack on Iran, the pace of these reported killings increased -- with multiple incidents claiming more than 50 lives each. Now, Israel's oldest daily newspaper has dropped a bombshell report, with Israeli soldiers and officers confirming the routine use of deadly force on unarmed Palestinians as a barbaric form of crowd control -- with the practice carried out under orders from superior officers.

    Gaza's Hamas-run health authority says 529 Palestinians have been killed at humanitarian aid sites or while waiting for food trucks just since late May, when the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) took on the task of distributing food in the strip. While Israel's defenders invariably discredit Gaza casualty counts, US Army Colonel Nathan McCormack, who previously headed up the Joint Chiefs' Levant and Egypt branch, has said, “We (Department of Defense, Department of State and the U.S. Intelligence Community) consider the Gaza Health Ministry figures to be generally reliable." A shadowy organization, GHF is led by an evangelical Christian leader with close ties to Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump.

    Employing a rhetorical device frequently used when Israel is accused of lethal wrongdoing, Netanyahu dismissed the newspaper's report as a "blood libel" against the IDF

    The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) called the soldiers' and officers' accounts "vicious lies designed to discredit...the most moral army in the world."

    However, perhaps bowing to the sheer breadth of the report by Haaretz, the IDF says it's investigating the allegations.

    According to the enlisted soldiers and officers who spoke to Haaretz, a variety of deadly weapons have been routinely used as a means of communicating whether Palestinians have permission to approach the aid stations.

    Interesting, thanks all!

    Some points that have been in my mind for years:

    1. How would I take the presidency of US, if 95% of the elite,
    trillionaires, Black Nobility, Royals, Pizza-enthusiasts -- were
    against?

    2. I would attract the popular vote. People would sense that I mean
    what I say.

    3. After winning, I would have to play the game. Pharma, AIPAC etc.

    4. Only very slowly, from below, move-by-move would I do what I want.

    5. I would have to say and do many, many slogans and acts of the elite.

    6. Literal-minded mass would no like it. They would naively assume that
    500 years of global elite with immense wealth -- just disappeared.

    7. US is only 5% of world population. So their elections are not very
    important. I am fighting against 95% of the world population.

    8. I may be a president -- but I am not in command.

    With all this weirdness that we just witnessed over the last two or three weeks, nothing ended up happening that so many claimed would happen.

    Trump dubbed it the "12 day War", I'm dubbing it the "Grand Illusion War".

    It in some odd way reminds me of the assassination attempt in Butler, "Follow the narrative planted 3 hours after the event sheeple and don't believe your lying eyes or ears!!!!!"

    Same goes for this recent narrative of Trump praising and lifting Netanyahu up, trying to protect him, nothing is as it appears to be.

    It wouldn't surprise me one bit if we actually soon see Netanyahu resign or be removed from power with some type of immunity agreement.

    Trump's on a roll far as I can tell.
    Hey Mike, you forgot to mention this.

    https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldT...63460580044614

    Donald J. Trump
    @realDonaldTrump

    It is terrible what they are doing in Israel to Bibi Netanyahu. He is a War Hero, and a Prime Minister who did a fabulous job working with the United States to bring Great Success in getting rid of the dangerous Nuclear threat in Iran. Importantly, he is right now in the process of negotiating a Deal with Hamas, which will include getting the Hostages back. How is it possible that the Prime Minister of Israel can be forced to sit in a Courtroom all day long, over NOTHING (Cigars, Bugs Bunny Doll, etc.). It is a POLITICAL WITCH HUNT, very similar to the Witch Hunt that I was forced to endure. This travesty of “Justice” will interfere with both Iran and Hamas negotiations. In other words, it is INSANITY doing what the out-of-control prosecutors are doing to Bibi Netanyahu. The United States of America spends Billions of Dollar a year, far more than on any other Nation, protecting and supporting Israel. We are not going to stand for this. We just had a Great Victory with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu at the helm — And this greatly tarnishes our Victory. LET BIBI GO, HE’S GOT A BIG JOB TO DO!

    Wait, so you don't like Netanyahu?

    I see all these leaders as varying shades of grey. I don't know how I feel about Netanyahu. I don't know how Trump feels about him either, even after reading that statement of his. What I do know is that the U.S. has a productive and transactional relationship with Israel, and Trump is going to say whatever he has to to preserve it..which might expose him as being morally ambiguous (or worse perhaps in some people's eyes) but no different than any other world leader, including your guy Putin. I think Trump is seeing chess pieces on a board in this case, not people necessarily, and is making moves accordingly.

    All my views are subject to change of course. There are some big gaps in my knowledge, admittedly, and I'm trying to frantically fill them and keep up with current events at the same time (all while making a humble living and trying to stay alive). There's what we see in the mainstream media, there's what we see in the alternative media, there's what we see on social media, and in the case of the middle east particularly, loads of history and nuance that we're all at least somewhat ignorant of but will still bend and mold to our biases when convenient (including me). It's a lot to juggle and sift thru.

    Most of the activity taking place now can best be judged over time (including the US bombing of Iran and Trump's ceasefires etc). It's all subject to immediate change, which makes judging stuff in isolation difficult if not impossible. Maybe Trump will change his tune on Netanyahu tomorrow. Who knows?

    Maybe the bombing of Iran was useless..maybe it will only cause more problems. Maybe Trump's ceasefires will be shortlived. That's likely the case..but maybe not! Maybe we look back on it all a year or so from now and judge it favorably. Regardless, to my way of thinking I at least see an effort towards positive development from a fearless guy with alotta balls who's commiting every ounce of his energy to the mission. I choose to root for him instead of against him because of all this, and because for better or worse as an American he's our greatest hope

    Latest news is that Israel's court postponed Netanyahu's trial after Trump's threat to withdraw aid to Israel...

    Like I said, Bibi Netanyahu is the president of the United States of Israel, in perpetuity, and his successors. That is, until they've sucked the USA dry.

    Couldn’t make this up… Please Trump fans, tell us which 5D chess move is involved here.

    My guess: Trump will gift the golden statue of himself to Bibi when he visits next week, in order to persuade him to allow the renaming of the United States of Israel as “Trumpland”.

    Trump announces new perfume range
    The US president has unveiled a new line of fragrances featuring a golden statue of himself

    US President Donald Trump has unveiled a new line of perfumes and colognes, marketed as “Trump Fragrances,” featuring limited-edition bottles shaped like golden statues of himself.

    The products went on sale this week and are promoted as commemorating “Victory 45-47,” a reference to Trump’s presidencies as the 45th and 47th US leader.

    “Trump Fragrances are here,” he wrote on his Truth Social platform on Monday. “They’re called ‘Victory 45-47’ because they’re all about Winning, Strength, and Success — For men and women. Get yourself a bottle, and don’t forget to get one for your loved ones too.”

    The New “Victory 47” line is being sold for $249 per 100ml bottle, with an option to save $100 when purchasing two. Trump’s perfume lineup also currently features the “Fight, Fight, Fight” fragrance for men and women, sold for $199 and featuring a golden image of Trump after he survived an assassination attempt last year.

    While the launch has generated enthusiasm among Trump supporters and collectors, it has also drawn criticism from political opponents and ethics advocates, who denounced the release as inappropriate for a sitting president.

    “From crypto scams to shady real estate deals, Trump phones, and cologne. He’s never stopped using the presidency to enrich himself and his family,” the campaign group Republicans Against Trump wrote on X.

    Online reviews have been mixed. On Fragrantica, users have described the men’s cologne as woody and spicy, with notes of cardamom, geranium, and fougère accord. Some reviews praised the scent as competent but overpriced, while others appeared to post critical commentary without having tested the product.

    “This honestly isn’t bad. But it’s nothing impressive,” one reviewer wrote. “I will however say that this is way, way, WAY overpriced. This legit smells like something you could get at Ross for $26,” they added, suggesting that “there really isn’t any reason to own this unless Trump is your god.”

    The launch adds to a growing roster of branded Trump merchandise that includes watches, sneakers, books, NFTs, and cryptocurrency. According to Forbes and Trump’s most recent financial disclosure, the ventures have generated tens of millions of dollars in revenue since the beginning of his second term.
