Seeking God and Truth

[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.

[DNI Tulsi Gabbard @DNIGabbard]

Newly-declassified records expose how deep state actors within the Intelligence Community concocted a false narrative that Congress used to usurp the will of the American people and impeach duly-elected President @realDonaldTrump in 2019.

Today, we reveal the truth 👇

In my 40+ years of being an economist, I have never seen the Fed more overtly political. Nor have I seen a battle like this errupt between the Fed and Whitehouse. The Fed has always had an unwritten rule about commenting on fiscal policy issues. It quietly supported TARP. It ignored the Obama tax hikes, and the massive Biden deficits. It ignored millions of illegal immigrants crossing the border. It ignored hundreds of billions in spending and subsidies being shifted toward solar and wind, which are less productive than fossil fuels. It also monetized that spending with Quantitative Easing. It cut rates before the 2024 election (which it has always tried to avoid). Now some on the Fed are saying they want to raise rates due to fears of inflation even though inflation was higher in 2024 when it cut rates. And the Fed can’t shut up about tariffs. It is patently obvious that the Fed has decided to play politics. They will argue that Trump started it. But QE actually started it. The Fed funded big growth in government and deficits. For Kashkari to blame Hassett for undermining Fed independence is laughable. No one should know the names of the people on the Fed…but these people are trying to be controversial. They want to be political. The Fed’s balance sheet must be trimmed…along with many thousands of Fed staff. It is absolutely untrue that the world is safer because of the massive increase in the size of the Fed’s balance sheet. The Fed is full of itself. I want a smaller, humble, quiet and much less active Fed.

The California “High-Speed Rail” is the biggest Democrat grift in modern history.

Voters were promised a $33B train connecting LA to SF by 2020.

Today? Over $100 BILLION spent, no finished train, and nothing but empty tracks in farm towns.

This wasn’t a mistake — it was a payoff to Democrat cronies:

•Consultants got rich.

•Unions cashed in.

•Bureaucrats created a jobs program for themselves.

Meanwhile, taxpayers got SCAMMED.

This is the Democrat model:

•Promise “equity,” “green jobs,” “infrastructure.”

•Deliver corruption, waste, and broken dreams.

•Blame someone else when it fails.

These are the people lecturing you about the Trump administration policies.

Operation Arctic Frost, the FBI’s fraudulent seizure of government cell phones belonging to President Trump, Mike Pence, and other Trump administration officials, was orchestrated by rogue FBI agent Timothy Thibault. If his name sounds familiar, it’s because Thibault is like the evil Forrest Gump of FBI anti-Trump operations, consistently appearing at the center of every major scandal:

–At the start of the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, Thibault traveled to Prague with Fusion GPS operative Nellie Ohr and corrupt DOJ official Bruce Ohr.
–Thibault was in charge of the Hunter Biden laptop investigation, alongside Russiagate’s notorious Brian Auten. Thibault shut down the investigation under the false pretense of Russian disinformation.
–After the investigation was closed, Thibault marked the FBI systems in a way that would prevent the case from being reopened.
–Thibault oversaw the investigation into allegations made by Hunter Biden whistleblower Tony Bobulinski—and conveniently shut that down as well.
–Thibault was in charge of the 2020 election fraud investigation, but instead, he opened an investigation into the Trump campaign and individuals linked to 2020 electors.
–For years, the FBI concealed Thibault's name from the public under the pretext of "privacy," when in reality, they were protecting the agency from scrutiny regarding his corruption.

Of the many absurd aspects of Trump's attack on Thomas Massie, the comparison of Massie to Liz Cheney has to be the most laughable.

It's honestly difficult to think of two people less similar to one another than Thomas Massie and Liz Cheney.

$TRUMP and $MELANIA are bearish for $BTC because they reveal the scam inherent in all cryptocurrencies. You invent a new form money, and YOU get to start out with 100% of it? Or rather, as an early adopter, you get the privilege of minting it at a much lower cost than everyone else will eventually have to pay to mint it?

What kind of scam is that? It's capitalist wealth accrual completely divorced from any kind of value creation. A way to get rich without having to contribute anything or make anyone's life any better. All you have to do is convince other people that they'll get rich too, if they buy your made-up thing and extend the absurd game that you're playing. If that's what people think capitalism is, better watch out, because the socialists are eventually going to win.

On a practical level, the circus around these shitcoins is going to make it harder to get the full GOP House to vote for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Remember, all it takes is for 3 people out of 220 to decide that they don't want to permanently etch their name onto the scam, and it will get tabled.

BREAKING: DOJ IG claims 26 FBI informants were in DC on Jan 6. (Guarantee this is not accurate)

At least 17 committed offenses for which other J6er have been federally charges. No CHS was charged.

Some questions for @realDonaldTrump:

1. How will you handle the so-called deep state “wolves in MAGA hats” circling your transition team, posing as MAGA to obtain powerful positions in a prospective Trump administration? After all, personnel is policy.

Gandhiji’s life lived in the service of his fellow man, shall withstand the test of time, as the seminal moment in human history, when one simple man altered the course of ideological evolution of human civilisation.

As for me, I have taken my own journey both with the man and the idea. He shall always remain my conscience, my Bapu who like my father, taught me that honesty and love for all shall conquer all.
