| Merrick Garland |
BREAKING: Merrick Garland has appointed a special counsel to investigate Donald Trump regarding his holding classified government documents at Mar-a-Largo and his attempt to “overturn” the 2020 election … leading to the Jan 6 Capitol “insurrection” … see:CNBC story. Don’t be surprised if this investigation lasts until November, 2024?
Now, Pilgrim, this move is obviously political and has at least three purposes:
1) Denigrate, through continued leaks, Trump’s run for re-election
2) Justify the DOJ’s unprecedented raid on the home of an ex-president
3) Maybe most important: Protect the FBI, Nancy Pelosi and DC Mayor Bowser from investigation by the new Republican-controlled House. — “I can’t discuss matters under investigation.”
And he had to wait to see the results of the election. Can this Attorney General get more sleezy?
Afterward: For more details and legal opinions, see: Powerline blog. Also, take a look at FBI agent provocateurs.
STAND UP TO REVENGE!
The Washington Post has once again proved itself to be controlled by the DNC through the Deep State about its reporting of Trump’s purloined nuclear secrets … see: John Hendersker reveals.
Amazingly, no red face …
STAND UP TO COMPLICITY!
Between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris?
STAND UP FOR DECISIONS!
… that all the conspiracies swirling around Hunter Biden, Sam Bankman-Fried, the FBI, Barack Obama, Ukraine, Maricopa county, George Soros, Dr. Fauci, Joe Biden, Paul Pelosi, the Mar-a-Largo raid, Jan 6, the Mexican border, John Fetterman, global warming, etc., etc. are all bullshit?
Just asking …

STAND UP AGAINST FRAUD!
On Monday, at Mar-a-Largo’s grand ballroom, ex-President Donald J. Trump announced his candidency for president in 2024. During an hour-plus low-key speech, he outlined what has been called his “manifesto” for his next term in office. Here are are bullet points:
* Bring back trust in government
* Death sentences for drug dealers and human traffickers
* Term limits for Congress
* Restoring America’s energy independence
* Reduce inflation
* Restore American respectability with the world
* Unifying Americans
* Rehiring unvaxed military and front-line workers with back pay
* Voter ID, same-day voting and only paper ballots
* Banning transgender women from female sports
* Ban Critical Race Theory from being taught in schools
* Space flight to explore Mars
For details on this 2024 platform, see: Daily Mail article
Afterward: Pilgrim, have you wondered why much of the media called it his “manifesto?”

This kid needs a new job. — Fletcher
As repayment for his past multimillion dollar generosity to Biden and the Democrat party, our president will soon nominate the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried to replace a retiring Janet Yellen as Secretary of the Treasury … assuming he’s not in prison.
STAND UP TO POLITICAL FAVORS!
Biden was right …
When the Republicans take over the House of Representatives in January, Kevin McCarthy has already purchased a huge Nazi flag and plans ro hang behind the Speaker’s chair.

| From Mostly Cajun blog |
The bad guys have gotten so sophisticated that we should never click on an email link, never truly believe the FBI, never take at face value what our president says … or never completely trust the results of an election.
Afterward: Isn’t it “funny” that the reason that Dave Chappell gave, in his SNL monologue, for being attracted to Trump was his candid honesty?
STAND UP FOR SKEPTICISM!
People who see nothing amiss with Joe Biden or John Fetterman in positions of leadership have been hypnotized by the media.
