Pelosi Revealed Midterm Delay Tactic,Trump Called Out The Puppets,He Already Won,Optics – Ep. 3873
Watch The X22 Report On Video

EU inflation is beginning to spike, it most likely will get a lot worse as times goes on. More and more people are moving out of California, then numbers are worse than originally thought. The Fed is trying to push the narrative that inflation is going to be terrible, this will backfire. The people are receiving tax refunds over 10%, this is the first part of the plan. The [DS] is planning to delay the elections but not in the way that people might think of. They are going to allow the elections to happen but they will use the idea that Trump manipulated the election using the machines. Pelosi revealed the midterm delay. Trump called out the puppets, Macron & Starmer. He is telling them go get the oil nothing is stopping you. Trump already won against Iran/[DS]. Optics are very important.

Shocking New Numbers Show More People Have Fled California Than Previously Known
- Under Governor Gavin Newsom, California has been losing population for the first time in history. This has been known for a few years now.
- What we did not know until now is just how bad the numbers really are.
- According to newly available data, the situation is worse than anyone realized.
- The New York Post reports:
Mass exodus from Los Angeles revealed in shocking new figures
Tens of thousands of residents are fleeing Los Angeles County, raising fresh questions about the region’s future as economic pressures mount.
The region recorded the largest population drop of any in the nation between July 2024 and July 2025, according to newly released estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau.
The data, published March 26, shows roughly 54,000 residents left the county during that one-year period. The losses mark a continuation of a steady slide for the nation’s most populous county.
Once home to more than 10 million people in 2020, Los Angeles County’s population has now dipped to just under 9.7 million, KTLA reported.

Gallup Poll: Americans Largely Unbothered by Gas Spike After Iran Strikes
- It’s no secret that Americans don’t like high prices at the gas pump, but a Gallup poll released last week found that it’s not the issue consumers identify as the country’s most pressing concern — not by a long shot.
- Conducted in the days immediately after the U.S. and Israel initially struck Iran on Feb. 28, the poll released Thursday found that only 35 percent of Americans worried “a great deal” about the availability and affordability of gas and energy.
- The exact same percentage of Americans felt similarly last year — and an even larger 37 percent of Americans felt similarly in 2024 during former President Joe Biden’s final year in office.
-
- The Gallup poll also found that only 2 percent of Americans considered gas/energy prices the top issue facing the country.
- Americans instead appeared to be more worried about government (28 percent), the economy in general (15 percent), immigration (14 percent), and inflation (10 percent).

- Millions of American workers, families, and small business owners are seeing the real results of President Donald J. Trump’s signature Working Families Tax Cuts law.
- The White House has reason to gloat, however, because according to Internal Revenue Service filing data, the average tax refund has soared by over ten percent.
The average tax refund is 10.9% higher so far this season, compared with about the same period in 2025, according to the latest IRS filing data.
As of March 20, the average refund amount for individual filers was $3,571, up from $3,221 roughly one year ago, the IRS reported on Friday.
The IRS data reflects about 79 million individual returns received, out of about 164 million expected through the April 15 deadline.
Nearly 20 million taxpayers have claimed the No Tax on Overtime provision, giving these essential workers — from factory employees and linemen to police officers and nurses — a powerful new break on their hard-earned extra hours.
Over 4.6 million taxpayers have benefited from No Tax on Tips, providing meaningful relief to service workers who rely on gratuities.

an exit wound. The bullet shattered on impact. “Inconclusive” means insufficient evidence to draw any conclusion. It doesn’t mean the bullet “did NOT match” the rifle like the headline says. The defense wants to use “inconclusive” as exculpatory evidence — but the prosecution wants to run chemical or molecular analysis comparing the jacket alloy to ammunition recovered with the gun. Unlike tool mark analysis, it doesn’t require an intact bullet. The defense is trying to block that testing from happening. That’s the nuance of the real story.

world) with a new mental frame: the Strait of Hormuz is not Iranian sovereign territory anymore.
It’s available real estate. It’s takeable. Anyone with courage can have it. That’s a massive Overton Window shift delivered, in a tweet, as an insult to the UK.
A year ago “America controls the Strait of Hormuz” sounded like some twisted fantasy.
Today Trump is telling Britain to go grab it themselves like it’s a parking spot.
In a few weeks, Trump has normalized the concept of Western control over the Strait so thoroughly that full US seizure now looks like the modest option compared to what he’s suggesting allies do on their own.
This is intentional.
The persuasion mechanics here are priming plus pre-selling.
Whatever the eventual deal includes (US Navy permanent presence, joint patrols, Iranian withdrawal from mining infrastructure) the public will accept it because Trump already told them the Strait is there for the taking. Your subconscious mind has already been primed to accept it.
This “psychological baseline” is going to influence Trump-Iran negotiations. Best believe it.
“The hard part is done” works the same way. He’s managing public fatigue.
It translates to “we won, relax, this is cleanup”.
This keeps approval from eroding while the Pakistan talks drag through April.
Trump isn’t describing reality. He’s installing it. Say the Strait is takeable enough times and it becomes takeable in the public mind.
It’s been 10 years of Trump and he still leaves me in awe with his persuasion.
Trump has destroying the hidden UK-Iran financial pipeline that kept the “war on terror” profitable for 40+ years
- “We’re not going to be there too much longer. We’re obliterating the s–t out of them right now,” Trump said in a phone interview — hours after posting to social media a video of huge explosions near Isfahan that he said hit “a lot of stuff.”
- “Well, I think it’ll automatically open, but my attitude is, I’ve obliterated the country. They have no strength left, and let the countries that are using the strait, let them go and open it… because I would imagine whoever’s controlling the oil will be very happy to open the strait,” he said.

And if it’s just a normal update to the White House, why are the Dems so upset about it, and why have they expended so much ammunition on this supposedly routine remodeling? There’s more to this story that we don’t know yet, and there’s a reason the Dems have been so triggered about this ballroom construction from the start. Anything involving the US MIL, the Dems/MSM tend to squeal extra loud.
President Trump’s Ballroom Is Cover for the Biggest AI Data Center in the World
- . Franklin Roosevelt called it an East Wing expansion. What it actually was — as any historian will confirm — was a bomb shelter, the original Presidential Emergency Operations Center, constructed beneath a convenient architectural fig leaf while the nation was distracted by a world at war.
- Eight decades later, President Trump is doing something remarkably similar beneath his much-maligned White House ballroom. Only this time, what lies beneath isn’t a Cold War-era bunker with fold-out cots and rotary phones. If the donor list, the contractor profile, and the president’s own words are any indication, what’s being built underground is something far more consequential: the nerve center of American AI supremacy.
- Trump confirmed what had been slowly leaking through a “stupid lawsuit” — his words — filed by preservationists opposed to the East Wing’s demolition. The military, he told reporters aboard Air Force One, is constructing a “massive complex” beneath the ballroom. Bulletproof glass. Drone-proof ceilings. The president noted that the ballroom itself “becomes a shed for what’s being built” by the military below. A shed. The man paid $400 million — privately — for a shed.
- Follow the Money Into the Ground
- Among the 37 confirmed donors are Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Apple, Meta — the full constellation of American cloud computing. Also present: Booz Allen Hamilton, which generates 98 percent of its revenue from U.S. government contracts and specializes in intelligence and data analytics. And most telling: Palantir Technologies and Lockheed Martin.
- It is the primary contractor behind Project Maven, the Pentagon’s flagship AI program, which can now generate 1,000 targeting recommendations per hour. The Army has consolidated 75 separate Palantir contracts into a single enterprise agreement worth up to $10 billion. Palantir’s Maven Smart System is being formally designated as an official program of record across all five military branches.
- In short, Palantir is the spine of American military AI. And Palantir donated to the ballroom.
- The thing being concealed here is not sinister. It is strategic. The president has said plainly that the military is building something massive, classified, bulletproof, and drone-proof. He has said the ballroom is a shed for it. The donors are the architects of American AI. The contract vehicles align. The history of every prior White House underground expansion follows this exact playbook.
- The United States is engaged in a technological competition with China that will define the 21st century. The nation that controls advanced AI controls intelligence, logistics, targeting, surveillance, financial systems, and the basic infrastructure of modern warfare. Trump’s AI Action Plan, shaped in part by the very companies on his ballroom donor list, has framed this competition in existential terms.
- “The country that builds the largest AI ecosystem,” the administration argues, “will set global standards and capture long-term economic and strategic advantages.”
- It stands to reason that the president’s primary residence — and emergency command center — should be the most capable AI node in the American government. It stands to reason that its construction would be classified, because announcing the specifications of the nation’s hardened AI command center to the public is not a national security best practice. And it stands to reason that the corporate partners whose business it is to build such infrastructure would be invited to participate, because the federal procurement process is slow and the threat environment is not.

She then listed the tools: litigation, legislation, or just mobilization/communication to guard against it.
The user’s hypothetical fits perfectly inside that “creep into the technology” frame — whether via remote access, malware that bricks the system, or physical/remote tampering.
2. What “inoperable machines” would actually trigger (no Election Day delay)
- Polls open on time. States already have statutory backups — paper ballots, hand-counting at precincts, provisional ballots, or moving voters to functioning machines. National Guard or emergency generators would be deployed in affected (likely blue) cities/states. Precedent: 2020 power outages and 2020 riots never stopped voting anywhere.
- Tabulation grinds to a halt in the targeted precincts/counties. This creates the exact “false count” optics Pelosi warned about — but flipped. Late-night “glitches,” huge delays in reporting, or entire precincts going to hand counts would be broadcast nonstop.
3. How they weaponize it to sow doubt and delay results (Pelosi’s template in action)
- “See? The technology was compromised — just like we warned. This is the false count.”
- Litigation tsunami:
- Demand forensic imaging of every tabulator.
- File suits under state emergency-election statutes and 2 U.S.C. § 8 (“failure to elect”) claiming the inoperability prevented a fair count.
- Push for court-ordered freezes on certification until “safe” manual audits are complete.
- Certification delays in blue areas: Governors/secretaries of state in Democrat-run states declare “election integrity emergencies,” extend canvassing windows, and push results past the safe-harbor deadline (Dec 11, 2026). This drags official outcomes into January 2027 and beyond.
- House/Senate contests: Losing candidates file FCEA notices citing the inoperability as evidence of “tech creep.” The fights run 3–9+ months into the new Congress while provisionally seated Republicans still vote — but the headlines scream “illegitimate majority.”
4. Realistic outcome
- Election Day happens.
- The results stay in limbo for weeks/months in contested areas, exactly as Pelosi described the Democratic response to a “false count.”
- Public trust collapses further
Voters may not love Republicans, but increasingly, they fear Democrats.

“subject to the jurisdiction thereof,” meaning that some limits on automatic citizenship were intended. Traditionally, this has applied to children of foreign diplomats or invading forces, but there’s no reason it couldn’t extend further. For example, Article 7 of China’s National Security Law obligates all Chinese citizens to serve the state as spies, meaning they remain subject to their own jurisdiction. There are many arguments along these lines, so it will be interesting to see where Barrett, Kavanaugh, and perhaps even Gorsuch come down on this.
