One hard-and-fast rule that leftists obey is this: Always accuse political opponents of committing the same transgressions that you are preparing to commit. Accusing innocent people of doing terrible things is dirty politics, but it muddies the waters of public perception just enough to protect the guilty from accountability. When Democrats commit electoral fraud, they accuse Republicans of trying to steal elections. When leftist revolutionaries burn down cities, ambush and murder law enforcement officers, and demand that state and local governments “defund police,” Democrats accuse grandparents and veterans of being “insurrectionists.”

Accuse first, facts later (then ignore them) seems to be the Democrats new mantra. They are so desperate to regain control of Congress that they will do and say anything. Even instigating riots and unrest based on incomplete or false information.

Accusing grandparents of being insurrectionists. Have you seen whose protesting and holding signs at some of these anti ice events? It's grandparents. These are the same people that protested the Vietnam war. They weren't all that wrong back then however, it seems they've just reliving their youth. It seems age hasn't meant an increase in wisdom from the signs they're carrying.

I think the Dems are looking to use this to declare emergencies in some specific states so they don't have to follow the established election rules much like they did in 2020. Hope the GOP is better ready this time.

Those Federal law enforcement officers in Minneapolis who have been conducting targeted Federal immigration law enforcement operations have, from time to time, been confronted by violent protests, that amount to riots, that the leftist Democrat Governor, Attorney General, the Minneapolis Mayor and his Police Chief have obviously been supporting for political purposes by not cooperating with Federal Officials whose duties include effectively enforcing the Federal Immigration laws. During those protests that are really many times violent riots, conducted and directed by what are really leftist Democrat supporting covert anarchists ranging down to just liberal people who have no idea of the reasons for the existence of the Federal Immigration laws, or why those laws must be enforced. As those engagements proceed, split second violent incidents between rioters and law enforcement officers take place, that require the law enforcement officers to themselves make split second very serious irreversible decisions, as we have seen that could result in injury and death. In those respects so far, two “protesters, one armed with a weaponized motor vehicle and the other armed with a loaded semi-automatic handgun have lost their lives, and who knows the amount of injuries sustained by the law enforcement officers, one of who had a finger bit off by a so-called protester. 99.9% of Americans have never had to make such split second decisions that those law enforcement must routinely make. So if history is any guide politically as a result, look for some wimpy establishment Republicans in the Congress to effectively surrender to the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrat position of not effectively enforcing the Federal Immigration laws any longer in Minnesota, by telling Trump that he must pull all the Federal Immigration Officers out of Minnesota, thus no longer effectively enforcing the Federal immigration laws in Minnesota allowing all illegals aliens to stay there, and instead for Trump to just send a “strongly worded” letter to the leftist Democrat Minnesota Governor. If that happens look for other Democrat run States to also demand that Federal Immigration law enforcement officers be removed from their States and the Federal Immigration laws no longer be enforced in those States, leaving the leftist Democrats free to safely maneuver their illegal alien populations into future leftist Democrat supporters and voters.

I disagree. Nick Shirley exposed the operation, the stolen money was to be used in the spring and summer for riots before the midterms. He exposed the theft. They have been forced to spent the money now before further exposure jeopardizes the whole operation. Its being rushed, which explains the co ordination with RINOs to undermine the Trump Administration and deportations in general.

I think #8 is onto it. The 'Rats would rather hold their riots when it's warm or hot weather, as they will get a much better turnout from their favorite violent demographic. As it is, they have only idiot white leftists to work with.

#2, if the grandparents are involved in these violent protests, there is a surefire way to bring them to their knees. These so call grandparents receive social benefits from the government. Find out who they are and freeze their benefits. When they do not receive their social security allotment, they will hurry home to find out what happened. When medicare is shut down for them and they start receiving large medical bills, they will hurry home to find out what is going on. The government have many tools that they can use to combat these protesters. My bet a majority of those protesters are on government assistance. Just freeze their accounts.

If you are familiar with “Angelology” in the study of Biblical Theology, you will recognize that much of what the Democrats say an do are very much like that of one of the most powerful beings God had created in eternity past, namely, “Shatan,” translated, “the accuser,” a legal term for a lawyer in a court case. We have shortened it to simply, “Satan.” Satan has thousands, or tens of thousands, or millions, or billions of fellow “fallen” Angels who chose Satan’s leadership over that of their Creator, Our Lord Jesus Christ. Satan commands his minions and they obey him, since they really have no other choice now. Be wary of the Antifa crowd, as you never know how much they’ve been brainwashed and they might be dangerous.

Conservative: Beijing Wins in TikTok Deal The new TikTok deal allows China’s ByteDance to keep 19.9% of the company, gripes National Review’s Jim Geraghty, a “complete violation of the law” that aimed to force a total sale. This is “selling out American national security interests,” since it still lets Beijing use the app “to spread anti-American propaganda and suppress criticism of the regime in Beijing.” Any “deal that merely has the U.S. ‘license’ the algorithm doesn’t address the heart of the problem,” as “licensing is not ownership and monitoring is not control.” This deal “may sound like a compromise, but it is in fact a capitulation.”

In case you missed it this week, the Wall Street Journal came out with an "exclusive," stating that the Donald Trump administration's goal is regime change in Cuba by the end of the year. It claims that, "emboldened" by the capture of Nicolás Maduro, the administration is looking for people within the current Cuban "government" who might be willing to turn on the Commies and negotiate or facilitate a deal that would lead to a transition in power. In other words, those who see the writing on the wall — that without Maduro's regime sending them oil, Cuba is a failed state.

Accountability is coming” to Minnesota, Attorney General Pam Bondi declared as Democrats try to shift public attention away from large-scale government fraud and towards the chaos they have created in Minneapolis. The promise comes after an ICE officer shot a person dead during a Saturday street scuffle while Democrat-allied activists were trying to disrupt a federal law enforcement action. The shooting prompted Democrats to escalate their claims of murder by ICE and their demands that ICE leave the city amid the expanding federal investigation into what many Republicans say is statewide, migrant-enabled, Democratic-backed taxpayer fraud.

Canada signing a trade agreement with China to permit the import of EVs is another escalation in the exploitation of the USMCA compact. For the position of China, using Canada as a route to ship component goods into the United States is just a slight expansion of their current technique to avoid U.S. tariffs. However, President Trump is taking action immediately. Noting on his Truth Social platform, President Trump announced that if Canada does effectively go through with allowing the import of Chinese electric vehicles, then the U.S. will impose a 100% countervailing duty against all Canadian imports.

The pandemic agenda, important to maintaining a healthy market for mRNA vaccines, is reliant on a general sense of fear and urgency to achieve success. Mitigating against this is the unfortunate decline in infectious disease and dearth of recent naturally derived pandemics. With COVID-19 fading and looking worryingly unnatural in origin, the pandemic industry is developing an increasing interest in ancient history, when its offerings may have proven more useful. In the year 1347 the armies of the Kipchak Turkic confederation under the Khan Janibeg, who were attacking the Genoese fortress at Kaffa in the Crimea, catapulted dead bodies over the walls into the city.

While bureaucrats are insisting that “law, not politics” is driving the cost increases, the truth is that over the past few years, New York’s Democratic politicians have made a series of disastrous energy decisions.

President Trump assured Americans that the government is prepared for the ‘catastrophic’ Winter Storm Fern as more than 9,000 flights have been canceled across the US. Over 235 million people under winter storm warnings have begun to hunker down as the devastating storm is projected to bring snow, ice and frigid temperatures to parts of 40 states stretching from Texas over to the Carolinas and up the East Coast. Trump urged residents in Fern’s path on Friday night to “stay safe and stay warm” and that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) is ready to respond to the potentially historic storm.

It has been widely reported that the Republican majorities in the Senate and particularly the House of Representatives are at risk in the 2026 midterm elections. This is hard to believe, given recent approval/disapproval polling on the Democrat Party. Last month Quinnipiac and other pollsters reported favorability in the low-to-mid 30s, with congressional Democrats hitting a record low job approval of 18% with 73% disapproval -- the worst since tracking began in 2009.Nevertheless, if the base of the Republican Party is not motivated to vote, there is a possibility that the party could lose its congressional majority.

In December, Iraq inaugurated a permanent office inside its Beirut embassy, officially to oversee $20 million in reconstruction aid pledged during the Arab Summit in Baghdad in May 2025. Lebanese President Joseph Aoun praised the move as a “gesture of Arab solidarity,” emphasizing the return of Shiite residents to their villages.

When Renee Good drove her car into an ICE agent earlier this month, the left tried to gaslight us into believing she was just some innocent bystander who was just at the wrong place, that she’d just dropped her son off at school and wasn’t supposed to be there. That narrative fell apart fast. Good, we soon learned, was a trained anti-ICE agitator who was absolutely there to obstruct law enforcement. Now we're watching the same playbook unfold with 37-year-old Alex Pretti, the armed agitator shot dead by Border Patrol agents on Saturday in Minneapolis while confronting agents. The talking points are already circulating.

In just one sentence, the Minneapolis police chief tacitly endorsed violence against federal immigration officers, and made it clear why the violence continues to escalate without police interference. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance partly blamed Minnesota authorities and police after an armed and violent protester ended up getting killed in a struggle with Border Patrol yesterday. After all, Minnesota Democrats are totally on the side of the criminal illegal aliens and rioters, and local police refuse to back up the feds. It seems Trump and Vance were even more right than we realized, based on shocking comments from Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara.

The Bank of England was advised to create a plan for the inevitable financial chaos that will result if and when world governments disclose the existence of aliens, according to a report. Former senior financial security analyst Helen McCaw sent a letter to the UK’s central bank urging the institution to prepare for the economic impact of little green men, the Times of London reported. If such a disclosure comes from the White House, Cambridge-educated McCaw projected in her letter, the revelation send shockwaves through financial markets and the banking system — and inspire general unrest amongst Earthlings.

Close-up videos of the fatal Minneapolis shooting showed protester Alex Jeffrey Pretti was armed with a gun — with the agent who fired the more than a dozen shots clearly reacting to something that alarmed him amid the chaos. It’s unclear if Pretti had drawn the weapon and was immediately disarmed, if an officer had pulled it from his clothing or if he was in the process of pulling it out when a separate federal officer was seen taking it from the 37-year-old as he was pinned to the ground. Videos of the incident show officers shouting “he’s got a gun,”
