😂The people who claim we can run our ultra-high-energy civilization on such garbage are lying. Their goal has been, since Malthus and then Heidegger, to dismantle our high-energy civilization, not "sustain" it.

It feels like now or never, fellas
Good luck 👊

[Ella Frei @EllaFrei17]

My name is Ella, I'm 17 years old.
I do long jump. I play volleyball. I go to school in New Richmond, Wisconsin.
When my school allowed a biological male into the girls' restroom without telling parents —
I went to the school board.
With my name attached.
In my own town.
I got bullied for it. Harassed online. Even some of my own teachers came after me.
I'm still here.
Because here's what I know:
The net in women's volleyball is set nearly a foot lower for a reason.
A biological male can hit a ball across that net at force that could seriously injure a girl.
And in track — all it takes is three biological males entering the girls' category
and not a single girl in this state stands on a podium.
I didn't speak up because it was easy.
I spoke up because somebody had to.
The Supreme Court is about to answer the question every girl in America is asking.
We're ready.

I made a lot of videos about the pandemic. I think this is the best one. It captures the insanity really well.

“The fraud is not real”

Today: 455 fraudsters charged, $6.5 billion exposed

*silent*

Society will never improve until people and the media can look at issues with a logical perspective of: Is this right or wrong to be happening?

EXPOSE IT ALL

[Tulsi Gabbard 🌺 @TulsiGabbard]

Yesterday was my final day as Director of National Intelligence. I declassified and released never-before-seen documents exposing the truth about Fauci directing millions of US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth. Go to https://t.co/tVwWp0TxZ4 to see for yourself.

@Orioles @TRowePrice Please take this momentum and roll with it this time, fellas. Time to get above .500. 🤝

[Catherine Herridge @C__Herridge]

New declassified records confirm the evidence ALWAYS supported the lab leak theory: the virus was engineered in Wuhan with US taxpayer dollars.

[Gina Milan @ginamilan_]

I’m sick to my freaking stomach reading Tulsi Gabbard’s declassified bombshells. They laid out the entire treasonous plot: weaponizing the Zelensky phone call to impeach Trump, with Rudy Giuliani squarely in their crosshairs next.

This wasn’t politics—it was a straight-up coup by corrupt deep state actors to overthrow the will of the American people.

These people belong in prison for this shit. Deeply disturbing and downright terrifying.

🚨 NOW: The Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool is under INCREASED National Guard and Park Police patrol amid leftist threats to sabotage the pool

American workers are pushing AROUND THE CLOCK to finish the pool by July 4, but liberals have a vested interest in destroying it for some reason

It’s truly a shame how much these people want our country to be embarrassed on a world stage.

Absolute traitors.

EXCLUSIVE: New Bi-Partisan Push to Declassify FBI Records Mapping 9/11 Hijackers US Support Network and Alleged Saudi Financing "Substantial Highly Relevant Evidence Has Still Not Been Produced In Court And/Or Released Publicly"

The three page letter from @RepJerryNadler, @RepDanGoldman, @NMalliotakis to the Archives confirms the FBI records are being sought through the Public Interest Declassification Board @PublicDeclass

With the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 Al Qaeda terrorist attacks that killed nearly three thousand Americans approaching, I sat down with retired Lieutenant Colonel Tony Shaffer who was part of a controversial and classified program called ABLE DANGER.

Prior to 9/11, ABLE DANGER datamined phone, travel and financial records to identify al Qaeda members. Shaffer produced new evidence to back up claims that the team identified al Qaeda cells before the attack as well as lead hijacker Mohammed Atta.

In 2006, a Senate Report and the DoD internal watchdog (DoD Inspector General) concluded there was no evidence to support the ABLE DANGER claims.

But in a 2017 sworn affidavit and “Disclosure of Urgent Concern” to the Intelligence Community Internal Watchdog, a DoD IG Senior Executive said the Senate Report was “informed by the flawed and incorrect premises” of the DoD IG report that was part of a "continued pattern of misconduct."

This wide-ranging interview examines suppressed pre-9/11 intelligence, the present day push for declassification of FBI records on Saudi ties, and accountability 25 years later.

We reached out to the Saudi Embassy in Washington DC. A spokesperson confirmed receipt of our questions. We will update if a response becomes available.

We reached out to the Intelligence Community Inspector General about the status of the ABLE Danger disclosure.

The Executive Director of the 9/11 Commission Philip Zelikow said “The Commission staff did follow up and look into what he (Shaffer) had to say…there was no evidence that Atta had ever been in the USA before June 2000 and the exhaustive investigation of his whereabouts and contacts by both the FBI and German intelligence turned up no evidence that would corroborate the earlier hypothesis of his links to a Brooklyn-based cell. This then turned into the issue of how to explain the confusion.”

“I remain attentive to the New York litigation. My longstanding hope was that a criminal trial of the people in our custody would bring out some added details but, again, those would probably affect some particulars rather than overall judgments.”

Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

We don’t have 60 votes for the House-passed SAVE America Act

But we do have a simple majority

Given the bill’s widespread bipartisan popularity, we could pass it with a simple majority—by debating it until it passes

I explain how in this clip

NORTH CAROLINA WILL BE AT THE GREAT AMERICAN STATE FAIR!

Dr. Lorie Khatod serves as the state lead for the North Carolina Pavilion at the Great American State Fair.

Dr Khatod is a native of N.C. Dr Khatod also serves as the Chief of Staff for the United States House of Representatives.

Her words:
When I learned that Governor Stein’s office had declined to participate in the Great American State Fair, I was astonished. With more than two million visitors expected, the event offers an unparalleled opportunity to promote North Carolina, support our businesses, attract tourism, and celebrate the people and industries that make our state exceptional. To forgo that opportunity during America’s 250th birthday celebration struck me as sad, shortsighted, and, quite frankly, unpatriotic.

Today, we have a pavilion that proudly tells North Carolina’s story. Our theme is “The Spirit of North Carolina: First in Flight. Fast on the Track. Strong in the Storm.” It celebrates the ingenuity, determination, and resilience that define our state—from the Wright Brothers’ historic first flight, to North Carolina’s deep racing heritage, to the remarkable response of volunteers and organizations that stepped forward during Hurricane Helene.

The pavilion showcases North Carolina’s heritage, innovation, agriculture, workforce development, and community spirit. In addition, our trailer will proudly display North Carolina’s state motto, “First in Freedom,” a reminder of the independent spirit and love of liberty that have shaped our state since its founding.

What makes me most proud is that this pavilion was not built by government bureaucracy—it was built by North Carolinians. Businesses, nonprofits, veterans, first responders, community leaders, and private citizens came together to ensure our state would be represented before millions of visitors. That collaborative spirit is the true story of North Carolina.

It is a pavilion that I believe our fellow North Carolinians will be proud to call their own.

🚨JUST IN: Was just on a media briefing call with a senior US officials who confirm the MOU with Iran has been signed and outlines the following from their POV:

"In general terms, the deal says if you're willing to behave like a normal country, we're willing to treat you like a normal country. It's performance based."

- Strait of Hormuz is open, but it will take a few weeks to get travel back to normal.

- A signing ceremony on Friday in Geneva including JD Vance, Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, and others, and a large Iranian contigent.

- The official stressed that we're here not just because of the last 1.5 years of the Trump administration, but because of the first 4 as well. The sanctions pressures built up and they believe created leverage.

- The reason negotiations have been "very fruitful" was because of the "degredation of [Iran's] economy" and the "scattering of their government which created a lot of internal pressure."

- There a significant new communication channels. The official describes the initial Islamabad meeting as very fruitful, despite not resulting in a deal. It laid the groundwork.

- Operation Project Freedom has been an "unsung hero" in this, resulting in over 7 million barrels of oil a day. That increased US leverage.

- The nuclear talks are described as "technical" in terms of how to retrieve the enriched uranium.

- Stressed this is not "pay for play." They will not get access to markets or release of their funds just for showing up for a meeting.

- There are "fascinating" internal political dynamics playing out in Iran. There are constituencies that want different things. Iran, by all accounts, should be incredibly wealthy.

- "We go in very clear-eyed" that Iran has been a bad faith actor in negotiations for 47 years: "Everything will be verified... all released assets and sanction relief is tied to milestones."

- The US will keep the current military force posture for now to make sure Iran "does what they say they're going to do." The deal contemplates a partial draw down upon the signing of the nuclear deal."

- "One of the aspects of the negotiation that was actually easier than others was the nuclear, because they need our technical expertise to get the dust out."

- Iran would probably love to have a nuclear weapon, but they know US intelligence is so precise that they can't do it in secret and the threat of force is now realized.

- The Gulf States generally love this deal. They saw the JCPOA as empowering Iran to be a bad actor. They see this as a regional deal that pressures Iran to behave and bring stability to the entire region.

- "The full deal will be published soon, but we're still in the building trust phase."
