Today we Americans are divided by this: those of us who know our rights come from God and those who think rights come from government. Read this and see why those of us defending our rights that come from God are aligned with our country. To think otherwise only leads to tyranny.

Giuliani: "We've failed for decades to see the holy war waged against us. We've been fed deliberate propaganda and idiocy about Islam.

The book Mamdani put his hand on calls for war 117 times as well as the beating, stoning, and subjugation of women"

[Kevin Bass @kevinnbass]

I crunched the data. Again.

I made a map. Again.

The picture is now even CLEANER.

States without voter ID requirements are 16x more likely to offer welfare benefits to illegal immigrants than states requiring ID (67% vs 4%, p<0.0001).

Dems are importing and paying illegals for votes.

I asked ChatGPT & Grok whether it was a crime for Trump to arrest Maduro (a common & important question today)

ChatGPT said yes:
- falsely assumed that Maduro was legitimately elected
- defaulted to referencing the UN charter and "international experts"
- has an anti-American slant, both explicitly and implicitly.

It sounds like a left-leaning law professor at any Ivy League school!

Grok said no:
- correctly explained Maduro's fraudulent rule
- explained Trump's power as commander in chief to direct the military to execute federal warrants

This is incredibly important to get right, as it will increasingly be the default information layer for society

[Chef Andrew Gruel @ChefGruel]

Ah yes, Hugo Chavez, the guy who nationalized everything, crushed the free press, gutted the oil industry, packed the courts, normalized corruption, and set the stage for Venezuela’s collapse… all while calling it “for the people.” Again, we are reminded of the sweet warmth of collectivism.

[Trad West @trad_west_]

Many think Communism is just a political theory. It is not.

Communism is a spiritual weapon of the devil, designed to enslave souls, destroy the Church, and erase God from the hearts of Men.

This is why saints stood up to it.

Why is communism demonic? Because communism begins with atheism. It denies God and His Church.

Man is reduced to a number in the collective.

The State becomes "god". The Church becomes the enemy. This is not just a political theory. Its satanic.

Can a christian be a communist? No. The Church has made this absolutely clear. Pope Pius XII decreed in 1949: Catholics who professed atheistic communist doctrine to be excommunicated as apostates from the Christian faith.

To support Communism is to support a system that seeks to crucify Christ anew, in His Church, in His poor, in His priests.

Socialist and communist regimes have persecuted the Church and its faithful since their inception. From Venerable Cardinal József Mindszenty in Hungary; He was arrested, tortured, drugged, and forced into a show trial. But he never renounced the Faith.

To the Martyrs of Ukraine of 1946 when Stalin outlawed the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church.

To the modern day where Christians, and the Church, in China, North Korea and Venezuela are persecuted. Just last month Maduro's regime had arrested a Cardinal and confiscasted his passport.

But we know the way to fight it.

In 1917, at the height of WWI, three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal received a message from Heaven.

Our Lady warned: “Russia will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will suffer much…”

The “errors of Russia” were not just political. They were spiritual poisons:
>Atheistic materialism
>Class warfare
>Destruction of the family
>Rejection of the Church
>Deification of the State
>Persecution of the faithful

These are the seeds of Communism, and they spread globally.

We are still suffering from these to these day.

Our Lady gave us weapons to use:
>Daily Rosary
>Consecration to her Immaculate Heart
>First Saturdays devotion
>Penance and reparation for sins

She promised: “In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph.”

[Select Committee on China @ChinaSelect]

The Chinese Communist Party’s “all-weather” partnership with Maduro’s regime failed to shield the dictator from facing accountability for endangering Americans. This outcome should be a clear lesson to other actors aligning with the CCP.

More broadly, the United States must deny China positioning and influence in the Western Hemisphere that would threaten America’s national security interests. The CCP’s ambitions and actions make clear this is non-negotiable.

[Andy Ngo @MrAndyNgo]

.@AsraNomani reports on how socialists, communists and leftist radicals organized within hours mass demonstrations in support of the Maduro regime in Venezuela. Conservatives don’t understand the left’s organizing tactics.

Many Democrats have also joined the protests because of their hatred of Trump. https://t.co/WtWVI5lNES

[Will Chamberlain @willchamberlain]

@KamalaHarris The Biden-Harris administration made available a $25,000,000 reward for information that would have lead to the arrest of Nicolas Maduro.

Now you're saying capturing him was unlawful? Did you just entirely forget your administration's policy?

[Miles Smith IV @IVMiles]

George Washington approved a plan to capture then Prince William, later King William IV. So yes.

The East German regime officially called the Berlin Wall the Anti-Fascist Protective Barrier. It gives insight into Antifa ideology.

[Dr. Brian L. Cox @BrianCox_RLTW]

The Senate Armed Services Committee does not need to be notified ahead of any potential military action, the Constitution confirms. Yet here the media is, treating this...revelation as though it were news.

[Dr. Brian L. Cox @BrianCox_RLTW]

This certainly is an interesting opinion. But "international relations" isn't an exception to the text of art. 2(4)...it IS the text. If Maduro wasn't president, he wasn't head of state. That means 🇺🇸 was simply arresting a criminal, not engaging in "international relations."

[Dr. Brian L. Cox @BrianCox_RLTW]

You're bound to hear a bunch of rhetoric in the next few days claiming this Maduro op violated @UN Charter. This note by @SecRubio is probably the most important point to keep in mind on that issue.

Remember, the cornerstone of the Charter, art. 2(4) (attached), prohibits threat or use of force in international relations. As Sec Rubio notes here, US gov't (and several others) don't recognize Maduro as the legitimate 🇻🇪 head of state. Absent that recognition, Maduro is merely the head of a criminal enterprise & is under indictment @TheJusticeDept.

This means the operation to arrest/detain him doesn't qualify as "international relations" under the circumstances. That is, relations between states.

As such, the Maduro op doesn't implicate art. 2(4) of the UN Charter. It was a military operation in support of law enforcement activities, and not an "act of war" as some folks have suggested already in the last few hours.

Just something to keep in mind in the days & weeks ahead as details of the op continue to emerge & legal considerations continue to be debated.

[Carlos Matienzo @CMATIENZO]

En la nueva acusación de la Corte del Distrito Sur de Nueva York contra Maduro por narcoterrorismo, se menciona a México 19 veces. Se le acusa de colaborar con el Cártel de Sinaloa y Los Zetas, así como de mover droga y dinero entre México y Vzla.

[Rep. Anna Paulina Luna @RepLuna]

I really DON'T CARE what the president of Mexico has to say. She's only in that position because she was INSTALLED. If they had a good president, you'd see Mexico not run by CARTELS!

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna just went BERSERK on Mexican President Sheinbaum after she slammed Trump's arrest of Maduro

"I really DON'T CARE what the president of Mexico has to say. She's only in that position because she was INSTALLED. If they had a good president, you'd see Mexico not run by CARTELS!"

"The government of Mexico is one of the most CORRUPT in the world! It's a SHAME." @realannapaulina 🔥🔥

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

JUST IN: General "Raizin" Caine gives a detailed breakdown of the U.S. attack on Venezuela, says they were so detailed that they knew what Maduro ate and where his pets were.

- 150 aircraft involved.

- U.S. forces arrived at Maduro's compound at 1;01 a.m.

- Helicopters came under fire, but "replied with that fire with overwhelming force and self-defense."

- Maduro and his wife gave up and were taken into custody.

- The youngest crew member was 20, and the oldest crew member was 49.

- Preparation took several months.

- "Those in the air over Caracas last night were willing to give their lives for those on the ground and in the helicopters."

- "After months of work by our intelligence teammates to find Maduro and understand how he moved, where he lived, where he traveled, what he ate, what he wore, what were his pets..."

- The weather was just clear enough for the mission so aviators could operate.

- All U.S. soldiers are safe.

[Jesse Kelly @JesseKellyDC]

99% of communism in America is funded by the taxpayer.

Decades of infecting institutions with the intention of bleeding the taxpayers dry to fund the revolution.

These are dangerous times. For the government.

[Jesse Kelly @JesseKellyDC]

Quite a reveal for where we are that Democrats weren’t briefed pre-raid because we knew for a fact they would leak it to ruin the operation.

Just wrap your mind around that. Democrats are so demonic they’d kill our troops for political power. That’s…not a good place to be.
