VICTORIA TAFT WITH ANOTHER TRIAL UPDATE: Trump’s Long-Time Nemesis Sends Love Notes to Michael Cohen During His Testimony.

ELECTION INTERFERENCE AND DISINFORMATION: “The nation was largely denied information about the Biden family business in 2020, thanks to a compliant press corps, the censorship of social media, and a partisan cabal of former intelligence officials.”

POWERS THAT BE ARE DOING THEIR UTMOST TO SHIELD OUT ANY LIGHT:  Stuck in the Covid Dark Ages.

SHOW THEM THE MAN AND THEY’LL SHOW YOU THE CRIME:  Trump and the trial without a crime.

I’M NOT SURE IT WILL STAND UP IN COURT BUT I LOOK FORWARD TO THE ARGUMENT:  Breaking News: Ron DeSantis Makes “Climate Change Isn’t Real” Official Florida Law.

AS IF SUCH REMINDER IS NEEDED:  Rashida Tlaib’s Posts Remind Us She’s an Enemy of Israel.

THE MIDDLE EAST FIRES SPREADING?  Lebanon: far-right group ‘Soldiers of God’ is exploiting the country’s unsettled past to stir sectarian tension.

AND AGAIN, BEHOLD HOW SHOCKED MY FACE IS:  Exclusive: Former NIH Head Francis Collins Admits Covid Origins Not Settled, No Science to Back Social-Distance Guidance.

SHOCKED, SHOCKED, SHOCKED:  Two “migrants” tried to break into a Marine Corps base in Virginia. One was a Jordanian national, the other was on the terror watchlist.

DEMOCRATS PRACTICE ELECTION CONTROL LIKE THEY DO BIRTH CONTROL: MULTIPLE METHODS. ILLEGALS VOTING, EXTRA BALLOTS, AND INSECURE ELECTRONIC VOTING MACHINES:  “Up to a third” of illegal immigrants are registered to vote, according to new study: “Potentially high enough to overturn the will of the American people.”

MY LATEST SUBSTACK ESSAY: Harrison Butker, Harbinger?

THIS NAKBA DAY MESSAGE IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY TRUTH: Also worth noting.
