Trump has put the EU nations and others on notice, if you continue with the green new scam your country will be destroyed. Trump calls out the WB to start financing oil projects. Trump makes another deal, this will create 35,000 jobs. Trump is in the process of [CB] controlled demolition, as the [CB] is destroyed, gold,silver and bitcoin will rise. The [DS] is trapped in their agenda. Trump has big pharma in the crosshairs, he is exposing autism and what causes it. He has now designated antifa as a terrorist group, he is prepping the country for the riots that the [DS] will try. Step by step he is destorying the NWO. On of the last acts is to have peace world wide. He is leading the warmongers down the path to war, he will be the peace maker.

Trump Calls On World Bank To Reconsider Oil And Gas Financing

  • Back in 2017, the World Bank Group said it would no longer finance upstream oil and gas after 2019. But the group noted that “In exceptional circumstances, consideration will be given to financing upstream gas in the poorest countries where there is a clear benefit in terms of energy access for the poor and the project fits within the countries’ Paris Agreement commitments.”
  • The Trump Administration is advocating for the World Bank to increase its financing for oil and gas projects, a reversal of its previous policy to cease funding new fossil fuel ventures after 2019.
  • This push prioritizes energy security, especially for upstream gas developments, and also extends to other development banks to finance fossil fuel projects.
  • The U.S. is also pushing other development banks to finance fossil fuels, including gas pipeline projects, according to FT’s sources. 
  • In recent years, the World Bank and many commercial banks have backed out of lending money to some fossil fuels, including coal, oil sands, and Arctic oil and gas. Banks were under intense shareholder and stakeholder pressure to cut their exposure to fossil fuels and align their lending portfolios to the Paris Agreement goals.
  • But the tables have turned with the U.S. Administration strongly promoting fossil fuels and America’s dominance in oil and gas exports.

  round of powerful tariffs, which would stop the bloodshed very quickly.”

 made appearances side by side at stadium rallies — a big optics boost for two populist leaders with ideological similarities. Each called the other a good friend. In India, the bonhomie between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and U.S. President Donald Trump was seen as a relationship like no other. That is, until a series of events gummed up the works.” It seems that the “bromance” has ended in Trump’s second term. “From Trump’s tariffs and India’s purchase of oil from Russia to a U.S. tilt toward Pakistan, friction between New Delhi and Washington has been hard to miss. And much of it has happened far from the corridors of power and, unsurprisingly, through Trump’s posts on social media. It has left policy experts wondering whether the camaraderie the two leaders shared may be a thing of the past, even though Trump has stopped short of referring to Modi directly on social media.”

Notice that most of the dispute happens on Trump’s “social media.” Narrative deployment. First Trump arranged a “ceasefire” between India and Pakistan. Then Trump warned India to stop buying oil from Russia. India ignored Trump’s warnings. “Donald Trump imposed 50% tariffs on most US imports from India, making good on a threat to punish one of the world’s largest economies over its purchases of discounted Russian oil.” theguardian.com/us-news/2025/a The key is “global supply chains.” Is Trump really punishing India for purchasing Russian oil? Or is Trump purposely restructuring “global supply chains” and using “tariffs” to do it?

Why? Trump then did something else. “President Trump signed a proclamation on Friday to raise the fee for H-1B visa applications to $100,000, setting up a new barrier for companies to hire foreign workers.” Adding a $100,000 fee to every hire through the H-1B visa program would end most of the H-1B visa applications. This will have a big effect on India. “Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said that the new fee will prevent companies from training foreign workers and instead encourage them to hire Americans on a new front in the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration.” thehill.com/homenews/55132 Is this more “punishment” towards India? Is Trump just trying to pressure India into a trade deal? Is that what’s happening?

Can I offer a different possibility? If Trump is conducting a “controlled demolition” of the world’s centralized debt system? What would be the best way to remove the “fiat” dollar as the world’s “reserve currency” and move towards a decentralized world system that protects the “sovereignty” of each countries currency? Answer: Help to “accelerate” the de-dollarization around the world. “Encourage” other countries to cut back on their use of “fiat” dollars in global trade, especially for OIL. Do you think that it’s just a coincidence that the five original BRICS nations are getting high tariffs in Trump’s second term? Helping them separate from the debt system?

1) Brazil because of the prosecution of Bolsonaro.

2) Russian sanctions because of war.

3) India because of Russian oil purchases.

4) China because of huge trade deficits.

5) South Africa because of their racist land confiscation policies. HIGH tariffs have been put on these five BRICS nations in Trump’s second term for a reason. Is Trump purposely “accelerating” the de-dollarization from the BRICS nations in order to “wean” the world from using the fiat dollar for world trade, in order to encourage the world to use their own currencies for world trade?

Separating them?

A “controlled demolition” of the world’s debt system? Sovereignty is being made great again. All planned. My past articles on the subject:

 you’re bullish crypto, then mass adoption is all that matters. 401(K)s are the next piece to the puzzle.

 , this would create a temporary or conditional “safe harbor” for cryptocurrency companies, letting them test and release new products—like tokens, trading platforms, or DeFi (decentralized finance) tools—in the U.S. market without immediately navigating the full suite of existing securities laws and approvals, which have historically been slow and expensive.Key Breakdown:

  •  Under current SEC rules, many crypto assets are treated as “securities” (similar to stocks), requiring companies to register offerings, undergo extensive reviews, and comply with disclosure mandates. This process can take months or years, stifling innovation and pushing firms offshore.
  •  The exemption aims to fast-track launches by waiving some upfront hurdles, providing a “stable platform” for experimentation. It’s targeted for implementation by December 2025, potentially aligning with broader White House efforts to clarify crypto oversight (e.g., dividing roles between the SEC and CFTC).
  • Implications:
    • For Crypto Firms: Easier entry into the U.S. market could boost competition, attract investment, and accelerate products like stablecoins or NFT platforms.
    • For Investors: More options but potentially higher risks if oversight is lighter initially—though the SEC emphasizes this as a balanced step toward clearer rules.
    • Broader Context: This signals a regulatory thaw under the new administration, moving away from the enforcement-heavy approach of prior years, amid growing pressure from industry and lawmakers for crypto-friendly policies.

This isn’t a done deal yet—it’s a proposal under development—but it marks a significant shift toward fostering U.S.-based crypto growth.

BREAKING: Nexstar Joins Sinclair Broadcast Group, Pulls Jimmy Kimmel’s Show Off Air After ABC Caves 

  • Nexstar Media Group joined Sinclair Broadcast Group and announced it will not air ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ after ABC caved.
  •  Nexstar owns 32 ABC affiliate stations and Sinclair operates 30.
  • Jimmy Kimmel lied to millions of people and claimed Kirk was assassinated by a MAGA conservative.
  • Charlie Kirk was gunned down by a far-left, pro-transgender radical who hated him for his conservative political views.

 telling you today. Distortion because Democrats want to blame anything other than Disney and their local TV stations for Kimmel’s suspension. Those businesses decided that, in their view, a suspension made sense. The reporting on this is clear. Notably, this is the first time recently that any local TV stations have pushed back on a national programmer like Disney. And that is a good thing because we want want empowered local TV stations. After all, local TV stations—not the national programmers—have public interest obligations, and they should be making decisions that in their view meets the needs of their local communities. I walked through all of this in my Concordia remarks yesterday, which are posted below.

Nolte: Jimmy Kimmel’s Return Is Another MAGA Win
  • Where’s the win for the left here?
  • What’s the upside for Democrats?
  • How does the Disney Grooming Syndicate come out ahead?
  • Sure, it’s a temporary sugar high for some: Yay, we bullied Disney into…
  • Into what, exactly?
  • I’ll tell you what…
  • Kimmel is a total ratings loser for Disney/ABC. Over at CBS, Stephen Colbert attracts twice the number of viewers as Kimmel, and CBS not only canceled Colbert, CBS says it has lost around $50 million a year on Colbert.
  • Imagine what ABC is losing on Kimmel, who is reportedly paid $16 to $20 million per year.
  • Then there’s the best part: the political fallout.
  • Disney’s decision to end Kimmel’s suspension, though, sends only one message to Normal People: We at Disney hate you. We hold you in contempt, we hold everything you believe in contempt, we have no respect for the truth, and therefore no respect for you. And to prove this, we are willing to keep a proven liar and ratings failure on the air even though reruns of Celebrity Family Feud in that same timeslot are cheaper to produce and make us more money.
  • You see, just like CNN, the New York Times, NPR, etc., Disney has painted itself into a corner where it can’t win. Disney has only one choice: continue to pour hate on Normal People or lose what’s left of its customer base: the far left. Disney so alienated us with its decade-long campaign to groom our children and warp our beloved movie and TV icons that all Disney has left are its far-left customers, and those far-left customers are now the tail that wags the rabid dog.

  • Against the background of the continuing war in Ukraine, a series of aerial incidents have taken place in Europe: from (unarmed) Gerbera decoy drones over Poland, to Russian jets allegedly flying over Estonian airspace (Moscow insists its jets remained over international waters).
  • Yesterday, another chapter in the ‘threats in the sky’ took place above the Nordic countries, with reports of an unidentified drone (or a group of drones) flying over Danish and Norwegian airspace.
  • Reuters reported:
  • “Copenhagen Airport, the busiest in the Nordic region, said it reopened early on Tuesday after drone sightings halted all take-offs and landings for nearly four hours, with Norway’s Oslo Airport also re-opened after it had shut its airspace over a drone.
  • ‘The police have launched an intensive investigation to determine what kind of drones these are’, Copenhagen Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Jakob Hansen told reporters. ‘The drones have disappeared and we have not taken any of them’, he added.”

Trump Admin., RFK Jr., Moves to Address, Assess, Safety of Abortion Pill After Years of FDA Negligence 

  • The Trump administration is taking long-overdue action to protect women from the dangerous abortion pill mifepristone, after decades of reckless approvals and loosened safeguards under Clinton, Obama and Biden.
  • Since its approval in 2000, mifepristone has been used by an estimated 7.5 million American women to end an unborn child. The drug is a two-part process typically taken up to 10 weeks in the pregnancy.
  • The FDA has received reports of serious side effects from the drug.  By law, the FDA can require special safety rules, called a ‘REMS’ program, if a drug poses serious risks. Recent studies, including one mentioned by the attorneys general, suggest that women could be at risk if the drug is provided without enough medical supervision.
  • The Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. notes that in one 12 year period, 2,740 ‘adverse events’ were observed with the abortion pill.

[DS] Agenda


President Trump’s Plan

 with the Tesla domestic terrorism. Understand? The LEFT SIDE of the UniParty now has such little actual public support it has to resort to TERRORISM and THREATS to try to get the public to submit enough to GET OUT OF THEIR WAY and allow them to continue their rigged elections and their vile policies. “The mass replacement migration must continue. GET OUT OF OUR WAY.” “The Soros DAs and the rising crime in our cities and the drug trafficking must continue. GET OUT OF OUR WAY.” “The rigged elections must continue, stop trying to make things difficult for us. GET OUT OF OUR WAY.” “The systemic robbery of the US Treasury to feed our rapacious NGOs must be started back up again! GET OUT OF OUR WAY.” And every “GET OUT OF OUR WAY!” demand ends with an IMPLICIT THREAT. “GET OUT OF OUR WAY…OR ELSE!” And THIS is the ‘or else’. This is public policy via terroristic threat. And this underhanded, vile shit is NOT going to be happening any longer in America’s Golden Age. That a national party resorted to this tactic is going to look really strange in the history books.

  • President Donald J. Trump is right: the violence problem is on the Left. That’s why he just designated Antifa — a network of Radical Left terrorists that aim to overthrow the government through violence and agitation — as a domestic terrorist organization.
  • Antifa has a long history of terrorizing our communities:
  • In July 2025, members of an Antifa cell ambushed officers at an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas. After defacing vehicles with anti-ICE graffiti — including “ICE pig” and “F— you pigs” — the assailants lured officers out of the building and opened fire, shooting one officer in the neck.
  • In July 2025, deranged rioters viciously assaulted federal agents at an ICE facility in Portland, Oregon. Officers at the facility — which had been targeted by the local Antifa terror cell for weeks — were kicked, punched, and targeted with an “incendiary device.”
  • In February 2024, a transgender Antifa terrorist detonated an explosive device outside the office of Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall. The terrorist left behind numerous stickers with Antifa slogans and anarchist symbols.
  • In March 2023, Antifa radicals laid siege to a planned police training center in Atlanta, Georgia. They attacked police with Molotov cocktails, booby traps, and commercial-grade fireworks, and destroyed construction equipment in what local police described as “anarchy.”
  • In January 2023, Antifa members were charged with vandalizing pregnancy resource centers in Florida. The individuals were linked to the radical group “Jane’s Revenge,” which firebombed pro-life facilities and vandalized churches throughout 2022.
  • In January 2022, an Antifa radical was arrested for bringing a pipe bomb to a pro-Trump event. The individual was spotted wearing all-black clothing and charged with multiple counts of possessing homemade explosive devices.
  • In January 2021, an Antifa supporter threatened to shoot police officers and Trump supporters outside the Florida State Capitol. The suspect was tied to the Radical Left’s violent protests in Seattle’s “autonomous zone,” which resulted in several deaths.
  • In August 2020, a self-identified Antifa member shot and killed a Patriot Prayer supporter during a riot in Portland. The suspect was later killed after he brandished a weapon while law enforcement attempted to apprehend him on murder charges.
  • In 2020, Antifa terrorists designated a substantial portion of the Capitol Hill neighborhood in Seattle as a so called “autonomous zone,” taking it over and enacting its own delusional structure of self-governance. This led to violent clashes with police and multiple deaths and injuries.
  • In July 2019, another self-proclaimed Antifa radical attacked an ICE facility in Tacoma, Washington. The “known anarchist” was heavily armed and attempted to ignite a 500-gallon propane tank; after he ignored commands to drop his weapon, he was killed by police.
  • In 2017, Antifa radicals threw rocks at police and attacked the attendees of several conservative political events at the University of California, Berkeley. In one instance, the violence caused the police chief to order his officers to evacuate a park while under siege.

Antifa’s terror is part of the trend of Radical Left violence that has permeated the nation in recent years, incited by constant lies and vicious attacks against Republicans from unhinged Democrat politicians, well-funded leftist organizations, and their allies in the media.

Secret Service Discovers ‘Massive Hidden Telecom Network’ With Terrifying Implications 
  • Just as the United Nations was preparing to begin its annual general assembly, which will be headlined by President Donald Trump on Tuesday, the United States Secret Service discovered a “massive hidden telecom network” in New York, with startling implications.
  • According to reports, the now-dismantled system included over 300 servers and 100,000 fake SIM cards that could have been used to overwhelm the 911 network and disable large portions of the city’s cell tower network.
  • The dismantled system consisted of over 300 SIM servers and more than 100,000 SIM cards spread within a 35-mile radius of the United Nations headquarters. Investigators say the network could have blacked out cellular service and flooded emergency response channels with spoofed traffic.

  • According to investigators, the network had the capacity to jam 911 calls, take down cell towers and cripple the city’s communication infrastructure at its most vulnerable moment.

    While no direct plot has been linked to the U.N. event, officials warn the discovery points to a new kind of threat – one aimed at the invisible systems modern cities depend on.

  • this is not just some random person’s really weird hobby.  the forensic analysis of the servers continues.  answers lead to a specific country and not a person. Th
  • Imagine if the UN building suffered a terrorist attack during the general assembly and every cell phone tower within a 35-mile radius went down. Yet, that’s not even the most terrifying possibility. Imagine if an adversary like China was able to replicate that kind of attack on America’s cell network across the entire country. It’d be complete pandemonium and the kind of thing that puts a society on the brink of collapse. Was this some kind of trial run to see what’s possible?
  • Hopefully, we get some more information about what truly occurred here because there’s clearly more to the story.

UN Faces Big Budget Cuts And Job Losses After US Funding Dries Up

  • The UN has announced it will need to cut $500m from their 2026 budget and will lay off 20% of its staff as it struggles to cope with a massive reduction in funding by the Trump administration.  Trump has eliminated at least $1 billion in total funding from the UN.
  • The plan is likely to involve an initial minimum 3,000 job cuts out of a 35,000-strong main workforce, with eventual job losses at around 7,000. The overall UN core or regular budget would be cut from $3.7bn to about $3.2bn next year. It means reductions of 15.1% in resources and 18.8% in posts in the regular budget compared with the 2025 budget.
  • Despite the funding losses, UN Secretary General António Guterres continues to press ahead with his new “pact for the future” focusing on artificial intelligence and policies for sustainable development.  The UN is now looking for alternative funding for their operations, though, it is unlikely they will be able to fill the void left by US cuts.  Most countries have no interest in paying more; the reliance has been entirely on Americans for generations.

These Radical Left Views and Policies is what allowed me to win the Presidential Election, including all seven Swing States, and the Popular Vote, IN A HISTORIC LANDSLIDE. There are consequences to losing Elections but, based on their letter to me, the Democrats haven’t figured that out yet. They are trying to eliminate the popular $50 Billion Dollar Rural and Vulnerable Hospital Fund, which was passed with only Republican Votes, and proudly signed into Law by ME. The Democrats in Congress seem to have totally lost their way. They obviously have no idea what it means to put America First or to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! All Congressional Democrats want to do is enact Radical Left Policies that nobody voted for — High Taxes, Open Borders, No Consequences for Violent Criminals, Men in Women’s Sports, Taxpayer funded “TRANSGENDER” surgery, and much more. Few people voted for what they represent, which would lead to the destruction of America. Instead, people voted for COMMON SENSE, and that’s what the Republicans and your President, “DONALD J. TRUMP,” stand for. I look forward to meeting with them if they get serious about the future of our Nation. We must keep the Government open, and legislate like true Patriots rather than hold American Citizens hostage, knowing that they want our now thriving Country closed. I’ll be happy to meet with them if they agree to the Principles in this Letter. They must do their job! Otherwise, it will just be another long and brutal slog through their radicalized quicksand. To the Leaders of the Democrat Party, the ball is in your court. I look forward to meeting with you when you become realistic about the things that our Country stands for. DO THE RIGHT THING!

Q !UW.yye1fxo No.8
If D’s shutdown the gov’t – what happens to the US MILITARY?
What specifically occurs?
Think budget.
Why is this relevant?
 Q

 As of September 23, 2025, the US is facing a high risk of shutdown after September 30, when the current fiscal year 2025 spending law expires. Negotiations are stalled, with no clear path forward, amid partisan disputes over spending levels and priorities. .What Specifically Happens to the US Military?The Department of Defense (DoD) and military are considered “essential” functions, so core operations don’t stop entirely. However, the effects ripple through personnel, readiness, and support systems. Here’s a breakdown:

Aspect
What Occurs
Details
Active-Duty Personnel (e.g., 1.3 million troops)
Continue working without interruption but face delayed pay.
Service members must report for duty as usual, including deployments, training, and combat operations. Paychecks are deferred until funding is restored (they receive back pay retroactively), but this can strain families, especially if the shutdown extends beyond the next payday (e.g., early October). In past shutdowns, like 2018-2019, this affected millions.
Civilian DoD Employees (e.g., ~800,000)
Many furloughed; ~50-70% deemed non-essential.
Furloughed workers (e.g., in admin, HR, or base support) stop work without pay, though they can return once funded. Essential civilians (e.g., in cybersecurity or logistics) keep working unpaid. Contractors may also halt non-essential tasks, disrupting projects like maintenance or IT support.
Veterans’ Services & Families
Limited disruptions, but delays in benefits processing.
VA hospitals and claims processing continue as funded, but new hires or expansions pause. Military family programs (e.g., child care, morale activities) on bases may close temporarily, hitting readiness and morale. Travel reimbursements and some commissary operations could slow.
Operations & Readiness
Minimal short-term halt, but long-term risks.
Critical missions (e.g., nuclear deterrence, border security) proceed via emergency funds or prior-year balances. However, training exercises, equipment upgrades, or R&D could be postponed, eroding long-term preparedness. In a prolonged shutdown, recruitment and retention suffer due to pay uncertainty.

These impacts stem from the Antideficiency Act, which bars spending unappropriated funds, but exceptions exist for “exempt” activities like military pay under certain laws.Think Budget: How Funding Works

  •  The military operates under a continuing resolution (CR) until full FY2025 appropriations pass. The current CR maintains FY2024 levels (~$850 billion for defense), with potential for a $6 billion increase if a deal is reached.
  •  : No new obligations or spending on discretionary items. The DoD can use ~$100-200 billion in carryover funds for essentials, but this depletes reserves. Nondefense cuts (e.g., to aid programs) indirectly affect military ops, like Ukraine support.
  •   Back pay is prioritized, but economic costs mount—e.g., the 2018-2019 shutdown cost the economy $11 billion, partly from reduced military spending. A shutdown doesn’t “defund” the military outright but creates cash-flow chaos, forcing reliance on borrowing or delays.

 NG is effected, but not catastrophically—their missions would continue as “essential” operations, but with disruptions to pay, support, and logistics.  

In essence, these Guard units grind on during a shutdown—protecting cities like Memphis without pause—but face financial stress and reduced support, amplifying risks for troops already in high-tension urban roles.
