If you're questioning why China wants to keep the U.S. out of Iran, the answer isn't some idealistic pursuit of global peace or that China is anti-globalist.

China buys 91% of Iran's oil exports. Iran, in turn, supplies 13% of China’s total crude imports. Disruption means China loses a steady, discounted oil supply.

That's it.

Deleted a post about @TuckerCarlson because his interview with Qatar got reported in a FARA registration and in several outlets yesterday.

After examining the document for myself, Tucker did not receive Qatar money. My apologies for repeating this.

Can anyone who is more familiar with CA property tax laws confirm or explain @LauraPowellEsq 's work?

The TL;DR is that when CHIRLA bought their new headquarters at 1730 W Olympic Blvd in 2023 for 16.5 million, they still are paying property taxes as if it were valued at 4 million.

I spent the last hour or so researching alternative explanations, and I'm not able to come up with one.

Another month, another mass-produced protest by Arabella Advisors (the ones funneling Open Society money into the streets 💸). Here's the running list:

📍 March: Tesla Takedown
📍 April: HandsOff
📍 May: 50501
📍 June: No Kings

and now...

📍 July: Good Trouble Lives On

The theme comes from John Lewis' quote: "Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble."

If "No Kings" wasn't already toeing chaos, July's version goes full-on encouraging engineered unrest.

They want their color revolution, and they'll keep financing these increasingly organized and borderline protests until their money flow is shut down.

This is confusing because the same NoKings organizers already told the media the next protest would be on July 17th. you can check Google News; there's no mention of a July 4th protest.

Either this is a disinformation campaign, or a different group of backers is trying to capitalize on No Kings' momentum.

Bumping this up. Comments indicate that something unusual is indeed going on. cc: @EagleEdMartin

And I'll stop here - you can read the report for yourself. It isn't perfect, but it raises serious, well-documented concerns.

Circumstantial evidence points to foreign actors using the Groypers as a vehicle to splinter the MAGA movement.

God bless. And stay frosty. 🇺🇸
Per the report, Megatron_ron, another X account implicated as a foreign actor, has borrowed from Iran's state media reporting word-for-word as recently as 12 June.

Everyone, pay attention to this post.

Sarah McBride was born to privilege as a white man and rose to be a transgender member of Congress at a young age.

And she compares herself on equal footing to illegal migrants - who, despite being here illegally and need deportation, still are desperate human beings from third world countries who came on false premises.

What does McBride have in common with them?

Nothing.

Exactly nothing.

You and I know that. McBride knows that.

But why does McBride persist in this comparison?

It’s simple. Reality doesn’t matter to them. Only recruitment. They are hoping to reflect two marginalized demographics off each other, find common ground, and hope both will join the revolution as a result.

Democrats do not care about migrants. Democrats do not care about sexual dysphoria. Democrats care about increasing their ranks, and this post is proof.

Remember this thread? Yes, AI gets the facts of Soros wrong because AI is trained on mainstream media. But this IMO goes way beyond biased journalists:

By any objective standard, Soros should be a central historical figure. His role in creating post-Cold War foreign policy, funding regime change efforts, working with the US government, and bankrolling NGOs is massive.

And yet, mainstream media insists he's just a "philanthropist," with no meaningful political legacy to examine beyond financing a few Democrats. That's a serious historical erasure.

US taxpayers spend billions funding media abroad to promote "democracy." Media is a key soft power tool used to steer public opinion and culture.

But this also means other countries are spending the same billions to have the same impact! What does this mean for US media?

In 2021, the FCC tried to require U.S. broadcasters to disclose foreign sponsorship. The National Association of Broadcasters sued to stop it, and won. That rule was struck down.

Additionally, media outlets aren't required to disclose who funds their "training." This creates a backdoor: through "journalism training" programs, funders (including foreign and NGO actors) can influence media narratives without transparency.

NBC, for example, had a known relationship with Soros as early as the 1980s.

This means: US media is likely awash in NGO, corporate, and foreign money, but there's no requirement to disclose it.

We critique other nations for media blackouts, like how Chinese citizens are kept in the dark about the Tiananmen Square massacre. But ask yourself:

Are we really so different?

Why is one of the most influential policy leaders of the modern era erased from mainstream historical narrative?

And what does that say about who controls the information we're allowed to see?

And what else is being hidden from us?
