It's hard to overstate how much of an outlier California is for its slow vote-counting relative to literally any other state or almost any other industrialized democracy.
Bill O’Reilly says that E. Jean Carroll must be criminally prosecuted
It turns out she wasn’t paid a little bit to lie about Donald Trump and target him, she was paid a lot. $7 MILLION in funding for her lawsuits against Trump
“The E. Jean Carroll fraud should be prosecuted. That is the most outrageous story — It's so outrageous that the woman testifies in a deposition under oath that nobody is helping her, no lawyer is helping her, no pro bono, and then we find out she got $7 million”
The lawyer was connected to Jeffrey Epstein and is a Democrat donor
I’ll break down what happened
Carroll’s lawyers Kaplan Hecker & Fink received $7 million from a nonprofit tied to billionaire Reid Hoffman. He is a LinkedIn co-founder and major Democratic donor and tied to Epstein
In a 2022 deposition, Carroll testified under oath that no one was helping her financially with legal fees. She said no pro bono, no outside funding
She lied, like they all always do
If we don’t have accountability in America then why are any of us following any laws and paying taxes
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇱 The Pentagon espionage bombshell just got worse...
New reporting confirms Israel has been eavesdropping on the American peace negotiators themselves.
The targets named: Steve Witkoff, Trump's top negotiator with Iran. Elbridge Colby, the Pentagon's policy chief.
And Michael DiMino, who runs Middle East policy.
Israel wasn't just collecting on America generally.
It was listening to the specific men writing the deal Netanyahu opposes.
What's wild is the documented incidents read like operations against an enemy state.
American defense personnel in Israel discovered spyware surreptitiously installed on their phones.
In 2021, Israeli military intelligence officers were caught planting listening devices at DIA headquarters.
Last year, Shin Bet officers were discovered trying to bug a Secret Service vehicle.
A SECRET SERVICE VEHICLE.
One senior official described the Israeli collection effort against top U.S. officials as "unhinged."
And the rating in context: Israel's counterintelligence threat level is now higher than any other American ally and EVEN HIGHER than some adversaries.
Notice who got targeted.
Colby is the most prominent advocate of foreign policy restraint in the government.
DiMino runs Mideast policy. Witkoff writes the deal.
Israel's espionage maps perfectly onto the people standing between Netanyahu and the war he wants to continue. They bugged the peace.
All of this while Israeli officers sit inside CENTCOM with unprecedented access, while Congress moves Section 224 to link the two militaries' systems and data permanently, and while Huckabee negotiates the framework.
The Pentagon says the ally is spying at a critical level.
Washington's answer is to hand them the keys to the network. Please make it make sense...

🚨 BREAKING: In a powerful moment on the anniversary of D-Day, SecWar Pete Hegseth GOES HARD against European nations who opened their borders to 3rd world migrants
"Sadly, today, different European beaches are STORMED by different DANGEROUS ideologies. Spain, Italy, Greece, Bulgaria — boats and MEN arrive. WHEN will European capitals do something about THAT invasion?"
🔥🔥🔥
"Or is it too late? I pray not, and I believe not."
"The men who fought and died here restored freedom to Europe. That freedom must be maintained by this generation of leaders and war fighters, or what they fought for, was merely temporary!"
"As our great President Ronald Reagan once said, freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction."
"You don't pass it to the next generation in the bloodstream. It must be defended by each and every generation. We stand by our allies, and we expect our allies capable and ready to stand alongside us. The heroes of 1944 did that, and may we."
PERFECTLY SAID.
Absolutely beautiful view of @ArlingtonNatl as I take off from DCA. Incredible view as we remember D-Day. What an honor to see both of my Grandfathers who served in the @USArmy and are buried there. God Bless!
🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 Washington found its counter to Iran's $24 billion demand: spend the frozen money on the countries Iran keeps hitting
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has ordered officials to tally the damage Gulf partners have suffered from Iranian attacks and price out repair and recovery costs, as the administration weighs using frozen Iranian assets to compensate for past and future damage linked to Tehran.
Think through what that does.
Iran says the entire deal hinges on getting its $24 billion back.
Treasury's answer is to start metering that pot out to Kuwait and Bahrain, so every missile Tehran fires at its neighbors now drains its own recoverable fortune.
The airport terminal, the casualties, the repairs, it all gets billed to Iran's account.

🚨🇺🇸BREAKING: The CIA officer caught with $40 million in gold bars allegedly invented an entire fake top-secret spy program to steal the money.
As if this story couldn't get and wilder:
-David Rush allegedly built a sham "special access program," the blackest box in U.S. intelligence, so secret even top-clearance officials couldn't look inside without authorization
-The fake program posed as "continuity of government" work, the doomsday planning that keeps Washington running after a nuclear war
-He allegedly read in two colleagues as unwitting accomplices and used a made-up government contract to funnel millions, persuading a defense contractor to buy huge amounts of gold
-The FBI raid on his home seized 303 gold bars worth roughly $40 million, $2 million in cash, and 35 luxury watches
-Investigators say he lied about his college degrees, faked being a Navy pilot, and still sailed through the CIA's notoriously brutal vetting
-A judge ordered him held as a flight risk, and several CIA officials are now on leave as the probe widens
The scheme worked because of the system, not in spite of it.
The secrecy walls built to hide operations from China and Russia hid the fraud from the CIA itself.
A man with a fake résumé ran a fake doomsday program inside the most paranoid institution in America, and for years nobody noticed...
