Liberal journalist bizarrely uses sexual profanities while discussing Trump’s Iran war with Adam Schiff. Alex Wagner: “Only Democrats, like Republicans, are also in the legislative branch. They have been designated this power, and yet they seem completely fine with being c—ks to literally c—hold themselves for the Trump administration...

The Five co-host, Jessica Tarlov, on a government shutdown: “Democrats don’t want people to get fired. Democrats don’t want people to lose their healthcare, but I think the Republican Party is trying to act like they have the upper hand, and they just don’t on the merits.” “We saw what happens when you give Republicans the votes. We did that in March, and they have governed by and for themselves. They think they don't have to negotiate when typically on these kinds of things… you do that because you don't have the 60 votes to do it.”

Rep. Gabe Amo: "The only people who have demonstrated that they are soft on crime are Republicans in Congress and Donald Trump. I remember January 6 ... I also have seen this administration slash hundreds of millions of dollars from efforts to combat crime at the local level."

"Whether it's Bongino, Patel, Bondi, Habba, Trump spent all of this time promising their supporters something. They used it to gain power for themselves. And then the moment that they're actually in government, that they have the opportunity to substantiate the very claims that they themselves were making, they immediately do an about face and leave their supporters high and dry." h/t Christopher C. Cuomo

Eric Holder: Democrats haven’t wielded power aggressively enough — and they need to start: “Progressives and Democrats have a reluctance and uncomfortability with the acquisition and the use of power." "And so the next time we have that power, we need to use it." “In service to the American people.” (of course) Putting aside the ludicrous spin that Democrats are reluctant to use power unlike Republicans — they mean this.

Speaker Johnson knows exactly what he is doing. Republicans love sabotaging themselves because when they are not the majority, there job is pretty much pointless. They don’t have any actual power and all they do is get on Fox News and yap about how bad the democrats are. Yet the second they actually get into power. They do the exact same thing. It’s all one big uni party. We need a 3rd party or the Republican Party must be completely dismantled and rebuilt by premiering every single Republican who currently holds office.

Asmongold says Republicans have power and refuse to use it "I hate the Democrats more than anything. But I also hate the Republicans. I hate them because they have the power and they don't do anything with it." "I am completely vengeful. I am totally vindictive. And the cruelty is the point. That is the point for me." "The fact that they don't go after these guys and they just let them run wild is a disgrace. It's like someone has god mode turned on in the game and they somehow still lose."

Keir Starmer announced a “Coalition of the Willing & promises boots on the ground and planes in the air” Where have we heard that before? Been saying it for days..GET AHEAD OF THIS NOW EVERYONE IN TRUMPS CIRCLE. This is a ruse..they are attempting to escalate and cause issues & distractions for President Trump to prevent him from continuing his mission here at home in returning the power of the republic to the people. This should have been obvious when Zelensky sabotaged the deal in the Oval on camera. They are trying to remove the power from Trump’s control. Trump has started taking power back in America from THE MACHINE. Now they are pivoting and consolidating their efforts in Europe. The EU/UK is the last bastion of the NWO, they don’t want anyone looking into Ukraine financials. The politician are owned by their masters over there & WANT BOOTS ON THE GROUND FOR A REICHSTAG FIRE like event. They will false flag us right into WW3. They are trying to box him in with a promise to defend the “coalition” NO TROOPS. NO PLANES. If they want to go destroy Russia themselves on that continent go do it yourselves. We have America to caretake. “America goes not abroad …in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all” - John Q Adams

“Many people are going to die. This is a war,” says Mark Halperin about the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran. “This is not a discreet, quick military action. This is not going in and taking Maduro. And I know the Democratic Party is saying just that. But the Trump Administration is doing this with impunity. They seem to have no care in the world — that the king, the executive branch, can just start a war and not even have to pretend that he needed Congress’ authority.” #DonaldTrump #IranWar 2WAY

THE ROTHSCHILDS: THE SATANIC STRING PULLERS Marina Abramovic posing with Lord Jacob Rothschild in front of the painting "Satan summoning his Legions" is not by mistake. They are no longer hiding it. They are proudly paying homage and showing you exactly who they really are and what they're all about. None of this is by accident or just for show. It is a system of belief and control. From Hollywood, the media, cartoons, to "After School Satan" groups for kids starting as young as in kindergarten, they are completely out in the open and pushing their agenda harder then they ever have. Alan Dershowitz stated in his 2019 book that he was introduced to Jeffery Epstein in the late 1990s by their mutual friend Lynn Forester de Rothschild while vacationing on Martha's Vineyard. The Clintons along with many other wealthy influential elites are also connected to the Rothschild going up to the highest levels of power, even to the Pope himself. They are all a part of the same cabal. The Rothschild, whose original family name was "Bauer," are of the wealthiest families in the world ever, and are behind the power, greed, and control of the elite. But who controls them? What are their foundational beliefs and where to they receive their influence and "orders" from? What is the driving factor or force? The media has been slowly dripping information to what this war is really all about and where it stems from. They also been feeding you the methods including blackmail, and human/child trafficking and what type of world these elite are trying to incorporate into society. You're getting closer to the truth. It is beyond the Republican vs. Democrat narrative, especially when you understand that most are all on the same side to keep YOU busy arguing about petty differences why power moves are being made in the background. The people themselves have been showing you directly to your face exactly what their beliefs are, who they worship and where they get their orders from. It's all connected from the blackmail, the trafficking, the Satanic worship and beliefs. The ritualistic sacrifices. There is a belief system that they are a part of that is the core of the "group" who control the world and everything evil and foul happening in our world is a part or stems directly from it. Everything is connected. This is not a game. This is real and once you understand this, everything begins to make a lot more sense.

Greg Gutfeld EXPOSES Why Everyone Turned On Trump When He Ran For President, He Blew Up The Industry: “Why do people resent anything? It's because they play a role somehow in the resentment and they have yet to confront themselves over it.” “When Donald Trump came up and you had all these people that were friends with him, He exposed something about them that they didn't want to know.” “Why were they the most extreme in their dislike for Trump? Because he exposed to them that they actually weren't the voice of conservatism. I'm telling you, that is behind all of the resentment about Trump in the entertainment industry, in the world of politics.”

Angry Democrat caller ERUPTS live on C-SPAN, torches Democrats over govt shutdown — announces he’s LEAVING the party. “I’m a Democrat, but I don’t understand what the party is doing… They’re holding out because THEY DON’T LIKE THE ORANGE MAN IN OFFICE. “So why are they blaming the other side when they’re the ones that have to come to the table and do the votes? They have to vote the right way to open the government and make sure that everybody has their checks and is getting paid. “And I think it’s kind of cruel to actually sit back and not participate because you don’t feel like the other party is doing what you want them to do. “There’s a trans section in there as well. They want to give money to afford trans surgeries for young kids. “And all this stuff that the Democrats have now gone into, which I am nowhere near. In fact, I think I’m going to be LEAVING the Democrat Party because this happens too often where they’re blaming the opposite party when they know they can do the right thing. “They need to do the right thing and reopen this government instead of keeping it shut down. Like they’re hijacking the American people. I’ve seen it before. We’ve seen them vote the right way when they’re in power, so why the hell can’t they vote the right way when they’re not in power? “So get this government back open. Get the American people what they deserve. And this is basically a Schumer shutdown. From what I’ve seen, from what I’ve been watching on C-SPAN, what they show [is] the Democrats whining and crying and blaming. That’s what I see.” The caller’s rant clearly left the C-SPAN host unamused. “All right, Jason,” she said before moving on to the next caller.

Democrats seemed to be fine with all of Eric Swalwell’s past when he was just in Congress and he’s not on pace to harm democrat’s political power. On the other hand, when he might accidentally help a republican become governor, democrats could NOT have that and are crucifying him. Also notice how they are calling for him to drop out of the governors race, but not drop out of congress..

The war with Iran isn’t just about Iran. It’s about China. “Those who say that America would not have gone to this war except for the Israeli tail wagging the dog don’t have a lot of respect for America. They don’t have much knowledge of the national security strategy published by this administration. They also don’t appear to know that much of the strategic discourse in this administration is about being hawkish toward China’s efforts to replace the American-led world order.” —Haviv Rettig Gur

Thank you to all who joined us in Brewer yesterday to fight to stop this senseless war. Full remarks and video below. ********* First, I want to say thank you to Food and Medicine for having me. The work of Food and Medicine, the Eastern Maine Labor Council, quite frankly, has really kept organizing alive and as part of the state for a long time. And if you have the time and the energy to get involved, I highly recommend that you do. I also just want to give a hearty thank you to everyone who's joined us here today. It means a lot and it also shows that this is, whether it's mothers, whether it's veterans, whether it's people just running for political office and part of our main community, nobody wants this war. Absolutely no one thinks that this is a good idea. And the reason why they don't want it is because they know what it's actually about. This is a war that's being pushed by Benjamin Netanyahu. He's been trying to make this war happen for almost 30 years. This is a war that's being pushed by the Saudis, who have also wanted this war to happen. Two nations that are happy to watch American blood be expended on their behalf. This war is also being pushed because Donald Trump is in the Epstein files. And other people in the White House, and other people connected with the Epstein class. They are terrified that we have noticed what they are doing. They are terrified that we're going to start wondering why the hell we let them stay in power. And to do that, they're going to do the oldest trick in the book. They're going to try to just start a war to distract all of us. They are willing to sacrifice the lives of young American men and women and the lives of Iranian civilians simply to protect their political interests. I cannot think of a more reprehensible act. I cannot think of a more unpatriotic act, of a more un-American act, than to send our sons and daughters off to die, to kill, to bring immense violence to innocent civilians abroad simply because you're afraid you might lose the midterms. It is disgusting. As reprehensible as it is, it's also important to remember that this situation we find ourselves in is only possible because we have had a Congress that for decades has abdicated its responsibility, its constitutional responsibility, in making war. We need to rescind the 2001 Authorization of Use of Military Force. Its vague language and lack of clarity has been abused by multiple administrations of both parties to carry out wars in the name of the military-industrial complex and those in power, to carry out military operations that did absolutely nothing to keep Americans safe, but made some people very, very wealthy and protected the political interests of those in power. It needs to go. But not only does it need to go, we need a war powers resolution that actually claws power back from the executive branch. The resolutions that are on the table, I highly recommend you call your elected officials and put pressure on them to vote for them. They are necessary, but they are not sufficient. We need a truly reformed War Powers Act, where we really pull the power back. No more 48 hours of combat operations where you have to notify Congress. No more 60 days of combat operations before you have to prove to Congress that you should have gone to war in the first place. No. We need to know why military force is used right off the bat. And it needs to be approved by Congress right off the bat. The Constitution is clear about who is supposed to have the power of waging war in this country. It is the body that is most representative of the American people because it is the American people who have to bear the brunt of combat. It is the American people who are asked to make the sacrifice. It is American families who have to bury their dead sons and daughters. It is American friends who have to watch their best friends come home from a war and struggle for years with physical and mental trauma.
