NSA Director out

Trump nominating General Flynn as Director of the NSA would be pure poetry

There would be some hurdles as NSA Director has to be a serving military member - so Flynn would have to come out of "retirement" and Trump would have to give him an age extension, but it's possible!

I maintain my prediction that we will soon learn— from Israeli sources— that Netanyahu was somehow involved in the October 7 false flag attack.

TGIF

I'm not saying Badlands are the ONLY ones who've absolutely nailed the game theory behind Trump Tariffs ... but I am saying we're among them.

Trump isn't trying to beat the players. He's trying to break the game. And the game is the system.

Wild details of Joe Biden’s rapid cognitive and physical deterioration have emerged in a new book, as it is revealed that handlers were trying to cover up signs of Biden’s physical decline with make up.

In one excerpt, a former Biden aide shared how they had a resident make-up artist to cover up how dilapidated Biden’s physical appearance had become.

As conservative commentator Stephen L. Miller puts it “they were literally Michael Jacksoning him” then calling anyone who questioned Biden’s acumen a conspiracy theorist.

It’s one small step away from whacking sunglasses on the ‘Weekend At Bernie’s’ corpse.

On some occasions, Biden would get the make up done, and then cancel the briefings.

Another incident saw Biden not recognizing or knowing who Rep. Eric Swalwell was and having to be coached into remembering him.

While they all remained quiet at the time, Miller notes that everyone is coming out of the woodwork now the book deals are being bandied around.

Candace Owens is accusing President Trump of being an Israeli puppet, meanwhile Ben is talking about hosting group therapy sessions for his investor friends in Israel because they don’t know what the hell is going on.

Tucker Carlson: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent explains the administration’s new tariffs, and why we had to do something to stop the slide.
