I don’t care what anyone says, Christians & Muslims need to stop fighting against one another & unify against the head of the snake. Ultimately, this is the only claim to victory. None else will not cut it, the result will be subpar. Speaking as a Christian… Assalamu alaykum.

President Trump shocked the world. An outsider walked into Washington and changed history. He has cut the head off of nearly every snake who called the swamp home. I’m another outsider coming to help him finish what he started. I’m not running to join the club. I’m fighting to tear it down to get real results for the people of Alabama. Send a warrior to Washington on May 19th.

#WATCH | Delhi: On the High Court proceedings regarding the District Magistrate and National Security Act (NSA) invocation, Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed says, "...I was shocked to see the Solicitor General fighting the case for the District Magistrate, who happens to be Gyanesh Kumar's daughter. How is this possible? The government is fighting for her. This implies that the NSA was invoked by PM Modi; it is he who is against our workers. That is why the NSA was invoked; otherwise, why would Solicitor General Tushar Mehta be fighting for this girl, the DM, in this case? That is the question today." On AAP's stance on Congress, she adds, "Arvind Kejriwal is like a snake and a loudmouth; he says anything. You saw what happened in Punjab: a person stated that drugs were easily available there. When he said this, the Punjab minister's associates went to his home and intimidated him so severely that he attempted suicide. When someone offers suggestions and advice on how to move forward or what is best, I wouldn't call it suicide; it is murder, and Arvind Kejriwal is to blame for it..."

Krishna dancing on Kaliya Naag was never about defeating a snake. Kaliya poisoned the Yamuna …. and Yamuna symbolises the mind and emotions. When unchecked instincts, ego, and fear dominate us, the mind turns toxic too. That’s why Krishna doesn’t attack. He steps onto the hood … rising above instinct instead of getting entangled in it. Krishna appears childlike because true strength is calm and aware, not aggressive. And he dances, because balance and rhythm control chaos better than force ever can. Each hood of Kaliya represents repeated habits and ego patterns. Krishna stands above all of them — not fighting one by one, but mastering the whole structure. This leela teaches one simple truth: what poisons us doesn’t always need destruction … it needs conscious control. “योगस्थः कुरु कर्माणि” Established in balance, act with clarity. This isn’t mythology. It’s a lesson in inner mastery. . . . .

During my visit today to the IDF intelligence unit, I revealed a classified document found in senior Hamas tunnels in Gaza. It proves direct ties between Iran and Hamas leaders Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Deif — and Iran’s support for Hamas’s plan to destroy Israel and for the October 7 massacre. In the document, Hamas demands $500 million from the IRGC’s Quds Force to fund Israel’s destruction. Izadi, head of the IRGC’s Palestinian department, replies that despite Iran’s economic crisis and the suffering of its people, Tehran will continue financing Hamas — because fighting Israel and the U.S. is the regime’s top priority. The conclusion is clear: Iran is the head of the snake. Despite its denials, Iran is actively funding and fueling terror across all fronts — from Gaza and Lebanon to Syria, Judea & Samaria, and the Houthis in Yemen — under the banner of destroying Israel. Israel will do whatever it takes to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and will continue striking its terror proxies until the Iranian axis of evil is dismantled. Donald J. Trump

The Biggest Scam In The World 🚨 Everyone Needs To Understand This Ken O'Keefe Explains The Cause Of America’s Financial Crisis & Who’s Responsible “Our World Us Run By Corrupt Prostitutes” “it's a good thing that people don't understand the financial system because if they did, there will probably be a revolution by the morning.” “We are paying debt. To who? This is the one question. The one question when they talk about the debt and the need to cut social services and increase your taxes, why are we doing that? Because we're in debt. To who? Who do we owe the money to exactly? Do we ever think about that? Who do we owe the money to? I'll tell you who we owe the money to. The Rothschilds. The Oppenheimers. The filthy rich banksters that are running this system, that are corrupt prostitute politicians, gave the power to these tyrants to do. You all have not worked hard enough. None of you have worked hard enough. None of you working class people out there have worked hard enough. You haven't worked hard enough and you owe the Rothschilds money. And they're taking away your social services and they're telling you, you need to go fight a war. And Iran now, in Syria and what do they do with the war? They make money off of us, again. And they send our sons and daughters off to war, to kill innocent people, to rape them, to steal their land. And all the while, hypocrisy doesn't even begin to explain us talking about freedom and democracy. It is a joke, and it mocks all of us. And the head of the snake is the financial system and Henry Ford rightly said, it's a good thing that people don't understand the financial system because if they did, there will probably be a revolution by the morning. And it's true. We owe money to the filthy rich. That's who we're indebted to. They could, they could say, we're going to wipe the debt clean. For me, that wouldn't be enough. Are you kidding me? You think you're going to get off that easy? For hundreds of years, you've been enslaving the people in your debt driven system. And you think that you're just gonna be able to wipe the slate clean and that's gonna be it? Hell no. If you don't hang from a lap post, you should consider yourself lucky for the scam that you have perpetrated on the people. And the thing is, is that they've got us all by this system. They control the money. It's not even paper to them. They don't even need to print the money. They can simply go into a computer, type in a couple extra zeros in an account, and someone has got money. And this system that we're fighting against... You know, I've been working on things and the thing that is one of the greatest challenges in trying to get things done is you need money. Well guess what? Who are we fighting? Who we're fighting has an infinite supply of money. So we're forever fighting against people who can pay every corrupt person who can be bought. And that actually explains everything about the world and the way it functions. Our world is run by corrupt prostitutes because those that can be bought are the ones that will be given the positions of power and ideally we like corrupt people who like little boys or high class prostitutes and we like to have video tapes of them because if you ever think to do what's right then we'll release those videos of you with some little boy or some prostitute. Literally, the more corrupt you are the more qualified you are to be a prime minister or president. Literally, this is the system we live in, it rewards the corrupt and it punishes those people who actually have some integrity. That is the system and the head of the snake is the financial system. And until we change that system we are fighting an uphill battle.”

In the snake pit of politics, Thomas Massie stands out as a true America First warrior fighting against wasteful foreign aid, government surveillance, and the swamp’s corruption for over a decade. At the Oldham County GOP event, he was speaking hard truths about our tax dollars funding endless wars abroad while our borders crumble, and how the establishment protects itself over the people. Going over time? That’s passion for the cause, not a crime. Snatching the mic from a sitting Congressman mid-truth-bomb? And dragging his late wife Rhonda’s memory into the mud? Despicable. Massie has handled his grief with grace, debunking conspiracies and staying focused on his family and Kentucky. If critics won’t defend a man’s family, how can they claim to defend the nation? Walking out on his challenger Ed Gallrein? No obligation to applaud someone gunning for your seat with big-donor backing. Massie endorsed Trump early but holds everyone accountable, that’s real strength, not weakness. That room full of “weak men” clapping for the status quo? Spot on. Massie is the antidote: pro-Second Amendment, anti-lockdowns, exposing January 6 injustices and omnibus pork. He’s not anti-anything except waste and overreach. Stand with him against the party hacks, we need more fighters like Massie turning up the heat in Washington. America First! 🇺🇸

Tenochtitlan, the capital of the Aztec Empire, was founded by the Aztec or Mexica people around 1325 CE. According to legend, the Mexica founded Tenochtitlan after leaving their homeland of Aztlan at the direction of their god, Huitzilopochtli. Huitzilopochtli directed them to build where they saw an eagle perched on a cactus, eating a snake. When they saw this exact scene on an island (located in what was once Lake Texcoco), they interpreted it as a sign from their god and founded Tenochtitlan on that island. The Aztec region of Mesoamerica, called Anáhuac, contained a group of five connected lakes. The largest of them was Lake Texcoco. The Aztec built their capital city, Tenochtitlan, on Lake Texcoco. Built on two islands, the area was extended using chinampas—small, artificial islands created above the waterline that were later consolidated. Tenochtitlan eventually reached an area of more than 13 square kilometers (five square miles). Causeways that doubled as dikes connected the island to the mainland and separated freshwater from salt water, protecting the chinampas. Tenochtitlan was laid out symmetrically, with four sectors separated by four causeways or canals surrounding the central area. This central area was where the temple of Huitzilopochtli, temples for other gods, and the rulers’ palaces lay. Each of the four sectors had its own services, including a religious precinct, and was occupied by craftspeople like weavers, sculptors, and potters. The center of the city was known as the Templo Mayor. Atop the single complex were two temples, one for Tlaloc, the god of rain, and one for Huitzilopochtli, the god of the sun and war. The Templo Mayor precinct was the location in which the Aztec practiced both bloodletting (offering one’s own blood) and human sacrifice. The Spanish conquistadors, aided by an alliance of Indigenous peoples, laid siege to the Aztec capital for 93 days, until the Mexica surrendered on August 13, 1521. A great deal of Tenochtitlan was destroyed in the fighting, or was looted, burned, or destroyed after the surrender. The leader of the conquistadors, Hernan Cortés, began the construction of what is now known as Mexico City among the ruins. Lake Texcoco was ultimately drained, and much of Mexico City rests in the lake basin. 🎥© secondsinhistory (IG) #archaeohistories
