[Rep. Shontel Brown @RepShontelBrown]

When Howard Lutnick found out he had to testify in front of the Oversight Committee, he gave $5 MILLION to a House Republican PAC.

Shortly after donating, James Comer announced his testimony would never be seen by the public. This is blatant corruption. He should be fired.

@sunnyright Nothing left but a wonderful family, 30 patents, 2 engineering degrees from MIT, a farm with a peach orchard, a herd of Wagyu cattle, a dozen inventions in my head, a clucks capacitor roaming my fields, and investors lined up to back whatever I invent next.

**Yes, it likely violates the Hatch Act.**

As Secretary of Defense, Hegseth is a covered federal employee. The Hatch Act prohibits using an official title or position for partisan political activity, such as speaking at a campaign rally for a congressional candidate (even off-duty). OSC guidance is clear: Cabinet secretaries may not use “Secretary” at such events. The announcement explicitly bills him as Secretary of Defense at this rally for Ed Gallrein.

Hate speech does not exist legally in America. There's ugly speech. There's gross speech. There's evil speech.

And ALL of it is protected by the First Amendment.

Keep America free.

A contrail, flying right next to a plane laying down a chemtrail....you can see the difference!

I'm not sure how much more proof some of you need to believe that the same people trying to poison us through our food, water, medical industry....wouldn't also do this? 🤷🏼‍♀️

⭕️ Someone Keeps Betting Hundreds of Millions on Falling Oil Prices Just Before Major Iran Announcements

A pattern is emerging in oil markets that is drawing scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers and legal experts: large, well-timed bets on falling crude prices placed minutes before major war-related announcements.

On Friday, investors sold roughly 7,990 lots of Brent crude futures in a single minute – worth approximately $760 million – around 20 minutes before Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi announced the Strait of Hormuz was fully open. Oil then plunged 12%.

It is the third such instance. On April 7, bets worth around $950 million were placed hours before the U.S.-Iran ceasefire was announced. On March 23, $500 million in oil futures were sold 15 minutes before Trump announced a delay to strikes on Iranian energy infrastructure — triggering a 15% price drop.

The trades have fueled speculation about whether those with advance knowledge of policy decisions are profiting from one of the most volatile commodity markets in history.

BREAKING: Just 20 minutes before Trump's announcement that the Strait of Hormuz was open, massive trades hit the market.

Investors sold a combined 7,990 lots of Brent crude futures, ​a $760 million bet that oil would go down.

These orders were much larger than anything else at the time.

The traders made huge gains.

Unusual.

🚨🇮🇪 Nationwide protest tomorrow Thursday 9th April.

The farmers and truckers are calling on the people of Ireland to stand with them tomorrow in a massive display of unity across the country.

Share far and wide!

[Michael McCarthy @punishablepress]

They take more money from fuel than it costs to produce it.

They could end the protest tomorrow by reducing the costs they unfairly place on you.

@BlakeSNeff Blake, please just give it a rest. Everyone is sick of it. Literally nobody that isn’t blatantly involved in a cover up thinks that Tyler Robison shot Charlie, and anyone who does peddle that nonsense just reveals themselves as a snake or an absolute imbecile. Which are you?

Mark claims there are no “innocent Palestinians”

Can you imagine someone saying that about Jews or Israelis?

He’s a hateful bigot while claiming he’s the victim of hatred and bigotry.

[Bitcoin Teddy @Bitcoin_Teddy]

Thomas Massie just went nuclear on Trump’s DOJ for bringing zero “charges, arrests, or investigations” over the Epstein files.

“Who should be investigated?”

“I’ll name them right here.”

“Leon Black.”

“Jes Staley, accused of terrible things.”

“Leslie Wexner.”

“Why did the FBI list him as a co-conspirator in their own documents in a child sex trafficking case, and then tell him that they had no questions for him?”

“Over 3 million documents describing horrible things, unspeakable things, much of it redacted.”

“Over two dozen people have resigned, CEOs, members of government worldwide.”

“But I haven’t seen any arrests or investigations here in the United States.”

“Prince Andrew, Duke of York, who has since been stripped of his royal titles due to his affiliation with Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested.”

“Peter Mandelson, who previously served as UK’s ambassador to the United States, resigned in disgrace from UK’s House of Lords and the Labour Party, and he’s been arrested.”

“Former Prime Minister of Norway, Thorbjørn Jagland, has been charged.”

“But we don’t see any charges, arrests, or investigations in the United States.”

“What do we see?”

“We see our FBI director celebrating in the locker room at the Olympics overseas.”

“We need justice.”

"We were never asked"

As a matter of fact, the Irish were asked. In 2004. And said no, in large numbers.

And we were ignored.

🚨BREAKING: A clip of Donald Trump from 2024 is going mega viral: “I can tell you you’re not going to have a war with Iran with me as president.”

Truly curious if any MAGA voters are willing to admit they were played.
