  1. Joe Biden and Janet Yellen are setting up the Trump administration for the perfect storm. This is how they intend to hamper the MAGA agenda.

    “Janet Yellen, Biden and Congress have setup a debt crisis in 2025.

    About $8 trillion of our $36 trillion national debt is due in 2025. That needs to be refinanced at current rates. Plus NEW budget deficit debt of $2 trillion.

    $10 trillion in debt needs to find buyers during 2025.”

    “A debt wall of nearly $8 trillion in federal debt is set to hit in the next year thank to Janet Yellen’s crackhead-level debt management.

    What makes it fun is all the big buyers from China to the Fed are actually selling.”

  2. Nothing to see here, just more Dems siding with criminals over US citizens.

    “Rep Dingell opposes a bill requiring the detention of ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIMINALS, saying it forces illegals to “unjustly suffer consequences that last a lifetime.” The lifelong injustice is the murder of American women and girls by illegal predators who have invaded our country.”

    The Squad are particularly reprehensible.

    “The radical Left is going to vote against the Laken Riley Act, with a Squad member comparing Laken’s brutal murder to kids shoplifting chips. Unreal.”

  3. So the Secretary General of Guatemala has some interesting things to say in this interview. With the video.

    People used to think stuff like this was crazy talk. But then the UK allowed thousands of young girls to be victimized. This stuff is happening world wide, and ignoring it as the UK did does nothing to stop it.

    “Secretary General of Guatemala gives interview claiming Joe Biden Admin worked to “BLOCK an investigation into a pedophile ring involving many high level politicians and businessmen”‌

    “Transferring millions of dollars to eradicated names, over $500 million in total”‌

    “Biden administration is up to something and they don’t want us knowing about it. The secretary general of Guatemala recently did an interview, and he claims the US Embassy gave him a message saying he’s playing with fire if he takes part in this interview.‌

    In the interview, he claimed that the Biden administration is actively trying to block an investigation into a pedophile ring involving many high level politicians and businessmen.‌

    He says the Biden Administration has been transferring millions of dollars, over $500 million in total.‌

    He also said they’re harboring illegal alien pedophiles and murderers. Guatemala wants to arrest these people, but the Biden administration won’t cooperate.”‌

    “That’s where your tax dollars are going.”‌

  4. They hate Musk because he and his platform are exposing their nefarious deeds and inaction against the rapists, as well as ignoring the suffering of victims. The media is complicit in the cover-up. Without outlets like X, they get away with it.

    “Dear Mr. Musk,

    I, and the people of my town, owe you our gratitude. For six years, we have led the campaign for a Public Inquiry into the cover-up of the grooming and gang rape of Oldham’s children.

    To this day, not a single mainstream reporter or news agency has told the full story of what powerful politicians did to those of us who refused to turn a blind eye to the industrial-scale abuse of children, not just in Oldham but across the UK. Without this platform, the truth would remain hidden.

    Today, @Keir_Starmer and his @UKLabour will vote against a Public Inquiry into this national scandal. Here are the three main reasons why:

    – To protect the block postal votes they rely on from sections of the UK’s Muslim communities to stay in power.

    – To shield senior Labour politicians implicated in the cover-up, including Deputy PM @AngelaRayner, Home Secretary @YvetteCooperMP, Government Minister @JimfromOldham, and Greater Manchester Mayor @AndyBurnhamGM.

    – To silence and demonise working-class communities like ours. They believe that by branding us as racists and far-right they can silence all opposition and tighten their grip on power.

    The Prime Minister is fully aware of what took place in Oldham. When we first began our campaign, whilst leader of the Labour Party, @Keir_Starmer came to Oldham to help support members of his team that were trying to put myself and others in prison for daring to speak out.

    Without your voice, and this platform, we would have already been defeated. For that we will be ever grateful. Thank you @elonmusk.”

  5. This is a hard read. But if you want to see why it’s important that those responsible, and the politicians trying to cover it up, are held to account, you should take the time.

    CONTENT WARNING!

    “For those interested in learning more about the rape gangs, this book by Jayne Senior, the main Rotherham whistleblower is essential. In this thread I’ll post some extracts from her book.”

  6. Re: The Rep. Nancy Mace X post in which she wrote: “The radical Left is going to vote against the Laken Riley Act, with a Squad member comparing Laken’s brutal murder to kids shoplifting chips. Unreal.”

    Whether one agrees with the “Squad” member (is that Rashida Tliab?) or not, there is a big difference between saying that a person should not be deported for shoplifting and saying the same for murderers or other serious crimes. The Laken Riley Act includes the detention and deportation of shoplifters, which is what she was concerned about.

    Also, she specifically referred to a child or teen here under DACA. (And she mentioned that all the kids would be detained, even if they weren’t the one shoplifting.)

    That’s all a long way from comparing Laken Riley’s murder to someone shoplifting “chips”. (And it wasn’t “chips” that was mentioned, but a candy bar.)

  7. From what I understand there are two problems with the bill. First it includes those covered by DACA and secondly it allows for deportation prior to conviction violating due process.

    Starmer and the Labour party will not endorse another inquiry for the very simple reason that there’s been two and the recommendations made by those inquiries have yet to be implemented. Starmer has said he wants to implement the recommendations from the general inquiry which the Conservative party ignored since 2022. Once those recommendations are put into law or practice they will look to see if a third inquiry is needed. Act on the previous inquiry makes more sense than to hold another and then delay any action further.

    Renewing debt bonds is a normal process of gov’t. Ironically much of this debt was probably issued in the form of five year bonds during the first Trump administration. The numbers are quite in but it looks like Trump spent more than Biden, which given the rate of inflation, is quite the accomplishment. The again a guy who has seven bankruptcies can’t really be expected to change his habits in his 70s.

    Most debt btw is domestic China accounts for less than 5%

  8. This article reminded me of some here. Democrats have become the pro-hawk party, the critique is written by a Sanders supporter. Its an accurate description where both Clinton and Harris — collecting Republican war hawk endorsements when it was obvious the nation is swinging towards an isolationist stance.

    Given Trump’s recent X ramblings and rants, I don’t think Trump is much of a change. My other theory is Trump is responding to the criticism Merkel made of him in her autobiography. She described him as taking a real estate developer approach to foreign policy which was inappropriate and ineffective. It appears he’s gone into full real estate developer mode.
