"However, it’s pretty clear from the face of things that those D.C. Swamp rats who are destroying evidence that the Executive branch is actively searching for as a predicate to ending fraud and corruption in the federal government, will have opened themselves up for arrest—and perhaps, face a much longer penalty than they would have for their initial crime.

He debunked the 'knight in shining armour' narrative, and explained why the Tartaria 'mud floods' theory is nonsense.

RFK Jr: The war in Ukraine is a money laundering scheme for BlackRock.
"They're doing this right in front of us. They don't even care that we know anymore, because... they have a strategy."
"And that strategy is an old, old strategy, which is they keep us at war with each other... They keep the Republicans and Democrats fighting each other, and black against white, and all these divisions that they sow."

In John Cullen’s theory, shooting into the Route 91 Harvest festival crowd was a calculated move to create chaos and mask the assassination attempt on Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) at the Tropicana Hotel. He argues that the mass shooting wasn’t the primary objective but a diversionary tactic to sow panic, overwhelm law enforcement, and obscure the real target amid the mayhem.
Cullen suggests that the operatives—allegedly CIA-backed and tied to Saudi elites—needed a spectacle big enough to draw attention away from the Tropicana, where the assassination was unfolding. By firing into a crowd of over 22,000 people from multiple positions, including helicopters and possibly the Mandalay Bay, they ensured a massive, immediate response from police and emergency services. This flood of activity would clog communication channels, stretch resources thin, and make it harder for authorities to pinpoint the Tropicana as the focal point of a separate, high-stakes operation. The sheer scale of the tragedy—58 dead, hundreds injured—would dominate headlines and investigations, burying any whispers of a Saudi prince under the weight of a “lone gunman” story.
He also posits that the crowd shooting served a psychological purpose: to terrorize and disorient potential witnesses. With gunfire raining down from above and possibly other vantage points, survivors and bystanders would be too traumatized or confused to piece together anomalies like helicopter activity or unusual police movements at the Tropicana. Cullen points to audio evidence showing rapid, overlapping gunfire bursts, which he claims couldn’t come from one shooter, as proof of a coordinated effort to amplify the disorder.
Additionally, Cullen hints that the crowd attack doubled as a message—a brutal display of power by the Saudi factions and their U.S. allies opposed to MBS. By turning a public event into a slaughter, they could signal their reach and ruthlessness, even if the assassination itself failed. The collateral damage, in his view, was an acceptable cost to these players, who prioritized geopolitical leverage over human lives. Once the assassination attempt faltered, the crowd shooting provided a convenient fallback narrative: pin it on Stephen Paddock, a dead man with no clear motive, and let the public grieve while the real story stayed hidden.

"John Carter is a chivalric ideal, a man who embodies all the masculine virtues in their perfect Aristotelian mean—or at least comes close to it. He embodies duty but not weakness. He embodies strength but not cruelty. He embodies adventure but not recklessness. To put it bluntly, John Carter is a masculine hero in the truest sense of those words.
"He’s a man who knows what he wants and takes after it with every ounce of his being. He does not shirk from battle; in fact, he’s a fighting man. Battle is in his blood, and he’s called to it as his vocation. He’s a leader of men, at all times honorable and fair. He’s the kind of man who can snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. You’d rather have no one else by your side and rather anyone else against you. John Carter embodies the archetype of the king, which I would argue is completely lost on the world today.
"When was the last time you saw a man portrayed so favorably on television? When was the last time you saw a man like John Carter?
"Because I can tell you this, it certainly wasn’t in the John Carter movie."

This is the latest on the Călin Georgescu arrest. Their team is very small, his wife is at the general prosecutor’s office right now, they are awaiting to see what kind of charges they are going to make up.
He’s saying that it’s critical for Trump to say something now bc if they don’t get any support from Trump Romania is going to fall and they will be sending troops to the Ukraine. He says it’s not a coincidence the arrest of Calin and the call for sending troops. He says if Trump doesn’t help them it’s going to be an open EU-Soros dictatorship in Europe
