We’re Not Orwellian, YOU’RE Orwellian! – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
One of the most effective aspects of the Trump campaign’s critique of the Biden regime was that it was authoritarian, bent on framing its principal opponent on various bogus crimes and destroying the freedom of speech by forcing Americans to accept a wide array of falsehoods, chief among them being that men can become women and legitimately star in women’s sports. Numerous patriots termed this leftist authoritarianism “Orwellian” and have continued to do so, and the New York Times is clearly feeling the sting.
Leftists, after all, thought they owned Orwell, and that any totalitarian regime that resembled the one in 1984 would come from the right. On Saturday, the Times feebly and petulantly tried to make the case that it is Trump and his supporters, not leftists, who are really Orwellian.
If it sounds like a fool’s errand, that’s only because it is. The leftist flagship that insisted on referring to guys such as Rachel Levine and Caitlyn Jenner as if they were really the women they wish they were now expects you to believe that the real manipulation of language is to be found in “Trump’s airbrushing of the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol as a ‘beautiful day’ and the pardoning of violent rioters who, he said, had ‘love in their hearts,’” which, the Times insists, “recalls one of Orwell’s quotes: ‘The past is whatever the Party chooses to make it.’”
See, the Times can call Trump’s words about Jan. 6 “Orwellian” because it is familiar with the old leftist tactic of accusing the enemy of doing what the accuser is actually doing himself. The left, with the Grey Lady leading the way, fabricated the entire Jan. 6 “insurrection” narrative out of a guy with Viking horns walking around and some elderly ladies snapping selfies in the Capitol rotunda after the police opened the doors and ushered them in. Now this is “the deadly Jan. 6 attack,” even though the only person who was actually killed on that day was a Trump supporter, Ashli Babbitt.
NATO members considering deploying air and naval forces to Ukraine – WaPo — RT World News– www.rt.com Source Link Excerpt:
Several European nations are reportedly shifting away from the idea of sending ground troops to the country
France and the UK are leading discussions on sending a military force to Ukraine, with the focus shifting to a potential deployment of air and naval forces amid ongoing ceasefire negotiations, the Washington Post reported on Sunday, citing sources.
The two countries seek to send a European-led ‘reassurance force’ to Ukraine to secure cities and key sites away from the front lines and to provide logistical support and training to the Ukrainian army.
As part of the effort, a French-British military team plans to visit Ukraine in the coming weeks to assess the number of troops needed and potential deployment locations, the WaPo says.
According to unnamed diplomats familiar with the matter, “the European focus has also shifted to air and sea power” due to concerns over whether the West would be able to maintain a large deployment of ground troops, while some NATO members have proposed using their assets to patrol the skies or the Black Sea.
However, some European officials doubt that a ceasefire – a precondition for deploying troops – will be reached soon, a WaPo source said. According to the paper, some diplomats describe the discussions about sending the military to Ukraine “as an exercise in preparation and leverage.”
Several European countries are reportedly hesitant to send troops without a promise from the US to intervene in case of an escalation, with European officials seeking American support in the form of air defense assets, intelligence, and heavy airlift. However, US President Donald Trump has not provided assurances, with officials from his team offering mixed signals over whether the option is even on the table.
While Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, recently described the initiative as “simplistic,” a French official familiar with the matter told the WaPo that the discussions are proceeding “in perfect harmony with our American partners, who are interested in this approach and have told us it’s a good one.”
Russia has warned against any unauthorized deployment of foreign troops to Ukraine, which it would consider to be legitimate targets. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said Moscow is opposed to the idea of deploying NATO troops to Ukraine, regardless of whether they are “under a foreign flag, under the flag of the European Union or national flags.”
MUST SEE: Elon Musk Confirms Widespread Voter Fraud as Millions of Non-Citizens Get Access to Social Security, Medicaid, and the Ballot Box — Millions Referred to DHS for Illegal Voting Prosecution (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com Source Link Excerpt:
Billionaire entrepreneur and Trump advisor Elon Musk dropped a bombshell this weekend during a fiery 100-minute town hall in Green Bay, Wisconsin, where he campaigned for conservative judge Brad Schimel in the state’s upcoming Supreme Court election on Tuesday.
Joined by Antonio Gracias, a private equity titan and a key member of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team tasked with rooting out waste in the federal government, Musk unveiled a shocking chart: a dramatic spike in Social Security Numbers issued to non-citizens, soaring from 270,000 in 2021 to a mind-blowing 2.1 million in 2024.
That’s almost 5 million non-citizens now embedded in the system—collecting benefits, draining taxpayer dollars, and, most alarmingly, infiltrating the voter rolls.
“This is a mind-blowing chart,” Musk declared, pointing to the data. “This wasn’t an accident. This was a massive, large-scale program under the Biden administration to import as many illegals as possible—ultimately to change the voting map of the United States, disenfranchise the American people, and lock in a permanent deep-blue, one-party state from which there’d be no escape.”
“This is mind-blowing”: Elon Musk drops disturbing data on the massive social security fraud committed by non-citizens (and how)– www.louderwithcrowder.com Source Link Excerpt:
Elon Musk and his D.O.G.E. team have been doing great work, though the messaging of that work has been sloppy at best. It’s presented in a way where edgelords can share posts on X and say “BASED” in all caps and leaves way too much room for the left and the media (but I repeat myself) to be handed ammo. To Americans in the middle, the work can look reckless and cruel. One of the problems of cutting the size of government is “we need to cut the size of government… but not like that.”
If this past weekend’s town hall in Wisconsin is any indication, it looks like Cousin Elon has landed on a way to explain D.O.G.E.’s work in a way that the average American worker can understand and say, “Dude, that’s messed up.”
Trump Putin: Russian newspaper fires salvo at Trump for not fulfilling ‘obligations’ after his ‘angry with Putin’ remark– timesofindia.indiatimes.com Source Link Excerpt:
Trump said he’s angry with Putin as he’s delaying the agreement with Ukraine.
Reacting to US President Donald Trump’s caustic remark about Vladimir Putin that he was “pissed off” at Putin for delaying agreement with Ukraine to end the ongoing war, Moskovsky Komsomolets, a leading pro-Kremlin paper, accused Trump of not fulfilling “obligations” to stop Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy infrastructure.
“All agreements on the level of President Trump are only worth a few pennies on market day. Moscow is prepared to make a deal with the US president, as ‘the leader of the free world’, and the undisputed boss of Nato and ‘the lord and master of Kyiv’. But right now the leader is not leading, the boss is not bossing and the lord is not directing his vassal,” the paper stated. “The Trump administration is demonstrating a strange passivity, a strange inconsistency and a strange inability to fulfil the obligations it took upon itself,” the report said adding that Moscow has another way of ending the Ukraine crisis in a manner that suits Russia.
“If the diplomats cannot move the peace process forward, the military will do all the talking. Putin has made his move, now we wait for Trump’s,” the paper said.
As Trump sees Ukraine peace deal slipping away he lashes out at both Putin and Zelensky– www.washingtonexaminer.com Source Link Excerpt:
TRUMP: ‘VERY ANGRY, PISSED OFF’: With Russian President Vladimir Putin showing he’s in no hurry to make peace with Ukraine and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky balking at the latest version of the proposed mineral deals with the U.S., President Donald Trump is showing his frustration with both leaders as the prospects for a quick, war-ending deal are fading fast.
Trump, as quoted by NBC Meet the Press moderator Kristen Welker, is unhappy with Putin’s latest delaying tactic, calling for “temporary international administration” in Ukraine under the auspices of the United Nations, because Putin claims Zelensky is not the legitimate leader of Ukraine.
“The president told me, quote, ‘I was very angry, pissed off’ when Putin started getting into Zelensky’s credibility and started talking about new leadership in Ukraine,” Welker said in the opening of her Sunday show. “If Russia and I are unable to make a deal on stopping the bloodshed in Ukraine, and if I think it was Russia’s fault, which it might not be. But if I think it was Russia’s fault, I am going to put secondary tariffs on all oil coming out of Russia,” Welker quoted Trump as saying.
Tax reckoning coming for besieged universities– www.washingtonexaminer.com Source Link Excerpt:
Universities thrown into turmoil by Trump administration funding cuts are now facing a new and possibly larger threat in the form of tax hikes from the Republican congressional majorities.
Republicans are weighing a major increase in the tax on big university endowments, as well as a raft of other measures to raise revenues from higher education.
The GOP is motivated to raise taxes on universities because it needs to find revenues to offset the major tax cuts it aims to enact in a sweeping fiscal overhaul. However, higher education is also a prime target because Republicans view it as overrun by left-wing radicalism.
“I love it. We should do it,” Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX) told the Washington Examiner when asked about raising taxes on college endowments.
London Goes from 97% White Citizens to 37% as City Degenerates into Chaos– lidblog.com Source Link Excerpt:
The city of London, England, was once 97 percent white. It is now 37 percent white as the town continues to devolve into chaos and degradation.
As the Gateway Pundit reported, Harrison Pitt, a prominent writer and thinker in Britain’s national conservative sphere, and Peter Whittle, founder of New Culture Forum, sat down recently for a discussion about the disintegration of the United Kingdom.
During the far-reaching discussion, Whittle noted that “London has stopped being my city.”
As Gateway notes:
[Whittle ] also discusses the failure of political leaders to address these issues and the need for more radical reform.
Whittle argues that London—a city that he says is now increasingly transactional and disconnected from its historical roots—has lost its cultural soul due to the demographic shift.
He observes that many of today’s London residents lack the collective memories and shared experiences that once shaped the city’s identity and served as a unifying cultural and social fabric.
Another Blow for Republicans: Louisiana Voters Reject All Four GOP-Backed Constitutional Amendments | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com Source Link Excerpt:
Louisiana voters overwhelmingly rejected all four constitutional amendments championed by Republican lawmakers and backed by Governor Jeff Landry.
The amendments, which ranged from cracking down on unethical out-of-state lawyers, modernizing the tax code, holding violent juvenile offenders accountable, and streamlining judicial elections, were defeated at the ballot box in what conservatives are calling a “Soros-fueled sabotage” of Louisiana’s future.
Amendment 1: Protecting Louisiana’s Legal Integrity — Rejected by Over 190,000 Votes
Amendment No. 1 aimed to expand the Louisiana Supreme Court’s authority to discipline unethical out-of-state lawyers and grant the legislature power to create specialized trial courts. Supporters argued it was a necessary step to maintain legal integrity and flexibility in a changing world.
But voters saw it differently, with 65% rejecting the measure, according to WDSU.
States Are Chomping At The Bit To Overhaul America’s Broken Education System– americanactionnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Donald Trump’s bold plan to eliminate the Department of Education bureaucracy and return education policy to the states represents a long-overdue correction that will empower parents, educators, and local communities to shape the future of learning in America.
For decades, America’s education system has been shackled by federal bureaucracy and inefficiencies. The U.S. Department of Education, created in 1979, has expanded its authority far beyond its original intent, imposing top-down mandates that stifle innovation and burden schools with unnecessary red tape.
Education is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. What works for one student may not work for another.
This is why, despite the Department of Education’s presence and spending for several decades, fourth- and eighth-grade reading scores have managed to fall since the Department started tracking them in the early 1990s. By dissolving the Department, we return control to those who know best and are directly invested in students’ success — the parents, teachers, and state and local policymakers.
Newly released JFK assassination files reveal more about CIA but don’t yet point to conspiracies – WTOP Source Link Excerpt:
Newly released documents related to President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in 1963 gave curious readers more details Wednesday into Cold War-era covert U.S. operations in other nations but didn’t initially lend credence to long-circulating conspiracy theories about who killed JFK.
Assessments of the roughly 2,200 files posted by the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration on its website came with a huge caveat: No one had enough time as of Wednesday to review more than a small fraction of them. The vast majority of the National Archives’ more than 6 million pages of records, photographs, motion pictures, sound recordings and artifacts related to the assassination have previously been released.
An initial Associated Press review of more than 63,000 pages of records released this week shows that some were not directly related to the assassination but rather dealt with covert CIA operations, particularly in Cuba. And nothing in the first documents examined undercut the conclusion that Kennedy assassin Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone gunman in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963.
“Nothing points to a second gunman,” said Philip Shenon, who wrote a 2013 book about the assassination. “I haven’t seen any big blockbusters that rewrite the essential history of the assassination, but it is very early.”
CIA headquarters ‘on lockdown’ as man armed with shotgun ‘opens fire’ | World | News– www.express.co.uk Source Link Excerpt:
A SWAT team was called to CIA headquarters in Fairfax County, Virginia, after a man allegedly began shooting a shotgun into the air. The facility is now on lockdown, according to reports.
Crime scene negotiators are reportedly on the scene in McLean as of about 10:35am EDT (2:30pm GMT) alongside Fairfax County Police Bomb Squad with the Fairfax County Police, according to DMV News Live. CIA Police is also on the scene.
The incident is unfolding at Georgetown Pike and Dolly Madison Boulevard and the threat has prompted a huge emergency presence.
The armed suspect was reportedly observed sitting on a bench near the facility’s gate along Route 123 while in possession of a firearm, local news outlets reported.
As the statistics reflect, Israel’s war didn’t turn out to be just a war against Hamas, but expanded to the entire civilian population and its critical infrastructure.
To address this crisis of colossal magnitude, two critical steps need to be taken. First, we must immediately provide a comprehensive and thorough humanitarian plan that alleviates the suffering of Palestinians and restore life back to Gaza through early recovery programs and reconstruction.
Second, it is imperative that we offer a political roadmap that brings decisive closure to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict once and for all culminating in an independent Palestinian state and ensure that this latest horrific round of violence becomes the final one. Let me address both steps.
Planned Parenthood Admits the Abortion Pill is Dangerous– www.lifenews.com Source Link Excerpt:
Planned Parenthood has admitted that the abortion pill can be dangerous. This was pointed out by American Life League in what its national director Katie Brown Xavios labeled a “rare moment of honest transparency.”
“Planned Parenthood has confirmed the dangers that American Life League has been warning about for decades. No, abortion pills are NOT safe, especially when they come from an unregulated source,” stated Xavios. “The irony in all this falls on the fact that Planned Parenthood themselves refer women directly to these online vendors that send pills recklessly and without any authorization or regulation. But let’s not forget, even the ‘safest’ pills still result in a dead baby. The business of abortion pills is never safe, for mom or for baby, and Planned Parenthood is to blame.”
Venezuela Debuts Website to Report ‘Unjust Deportations’ of Illegals from U.S.– www.breitbart.com Source Link Excerpt:
Venezuela’s socialist regime launched a new website Tuesday that allows individuals to report alleged “unjust deportations” of Venezuelan illegal migrants from the United States “before it’s too late.”
The website is managed by the “Committee for the Defense of Venezuelan Migrants,” an organization directly affiliated with the Venezuelan socialist regime that describes itself as an organization “committed to the defense and promotion of human rights focused on denouncing and making visible the situation of Venezuelan migrants in the U.S.”
“We are a collective committed to the defense and promotion of human rights focused on denouncing and making visible the particular situation of vulnerability of Venezuelan citizens in the United States, whose presidential policy has been dedicated to stigmatize migration,” the website reads. “The persecution, imprisonment and deportation of Venezuelans without due process is an aberration that should not be indifferent to us and that constitutes an anachronistic and illegal act that evokes the most nefarious episodes of human history.”

JFK Files: Section on Would-Be Whistleblower Who Was Found Dead Goes Viral– www.westernjournal.com Source Link Excerpt:
The release of Kennedy assassination files Tuesday stirred up a hornet’s nest of social media speculation about a crime that changed history more than six decades ago.
And one particular element — the tale of a would-be whistleblower with ties to the CIA — seemed to be gaining traction more than others.
But while the story itself wasn’t new, one element of it hadn’t been public before.
Emily Brooks, a reporter for Beltway-centric news organization The Hill, published a post about it to the social media platform X.
This document from the JFK files drop is going viral on conservative Twitter right now. But this part isn’t new.

Hillary Trashes America on Foreign Soil, Demands Control of Information That ‘Determines How We Think’ – RedState– redstate.com Source Link Excerpt:
Hillary Clinton spoke at the World Forum on the Future of Democracy, Tech, and Humankind on Tuesday, immediately slamming America under Trump’s leadership as marching towards autocracy.
She said that at a forum in … Germany.
“There’s no way to sugarcoat it. There’s no way to explain it away,” she said less than 60 seconds into her speech. “Autocracy is on the March, and we now have a government in the United States that has thrown in its lot with the autocrats.”
That government, she continued, “has made a choice to support those who wage war, not peace, who has given enormous power to the men who control the information flow in our world, who have all pledged allegiance to the continuation of algorithms that not only addict us, but poison us with hatred and fear.”
