Cuba is a tragic example of what can happen to a society under a Marxist–Leninist socialist republic—equal in poverty. New reports show that nearly a quarter of Cuba’s population has fled the nation in the past four years alone in search of economic opportunities.

Such a mass exodus is usually only seen during times of war. Estimates state that around 545,011 people escaped the island in 2024, with 45.5% fleeing to the United States. Spain, Serbia, Mexico, and Uruguay remain popular for socialist refugees. The study was conducted by Cuban economist Albizu-Campos as the nation has not held a formal census since 2012. The National Office of Statistics has acknowledged that the population has fallen beneath 10 million, with their estimates stating 300,000 fled in 2024.

Cuba has been in a crisis for many years now. The nation faces one of the worst energy crises and it has become commonplace for entire regions to go a day without any power. Trade restrictions have caused widespread shortages of essentials such as food, water, and oil.

Their currency is worthless. Inflation hit 500% in 2021, falling to 200% in 2022, but the nation is unable to keep proper figures. In 2021, authorities attempted to establish the Cuban peso as the main currency and introduced a new currency pegged to the dollar called “moneda libremente convertible” (MLC). Cuba, like Venezuela and other socialist economies, has suffered from economic mismanagement rather than just US sanctions. There is no private property, the dual-currency system has failed, and central planning is non-existent.

President Miguel Díaz-Canel reached out to Russia, Turkey, Algeria, and China for financial assistance but remains blacklisted by most of the West. Canada is actually the top importer of Cuban goods, accounting for $585.61 million of exports in 2023 out of a total of $1.59 billion. Tobacco, nickel, ores, and alcohol remain Cuba’s last standing exports but most nations sanctioned Cuba long ago and they are hard-pressed to find any buyers. Exports declined by $900 million as agriculture and tourism plummeted.

Russia has attempted to help Cuba bypass sanctions by supplying essentials like meat and dairy, and President Diaz-Canel is expected to visit Moscow in the coming months. Russia and China are Cuba’s last hope for a financial lifeline.

The Cuban Human Rights Observatory (OCDH) estimates that at least 89% of Cubans currently live in “extreme poverty.” This is a textbook tragic example of how a nation inevitably falls under Marxist–Leninist socialist policies that dictate everyone must be equal in poverty.

England has fallen. Politicians permitted open borders and permanently altered society. England is no longer a Christian nation. They have abandoned their core traditions and beliefs for outsiders who vote for liberal policies. The UK is now debating implementing new sentencing guidelines to establish a two-tiered justice system that will ensure white, straight, Christian men receive the harshest sentences.

Under new guidelines, judges and magistrates will obtain pre-sentence reports for offenders from minority groups. They will be asked to consider an offender’s religion, race, and sexuality to ensure their treatment is favorable.

Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood is reviewing the blatantly biased policy. “The guideline states that a pre-sentence report will normally be considered necessary for these cohorts. A pre-sentence report can be instrumental in assisting courts in the determination of their sentence. But the access to one should not be determined by an offender’s ethnicity, culture or religion,” she stated. “As someone who is from an ethnic minority background myself, I do not stand for differential treatment before the law like this.” You know the situation is dire when even the liberals are questioning its validity.

Sarah Jones, the industry minister, declared that England cannot have a two-tiered justice system. “We disagree with this decision. I think it’s really important in the country that people are trusting in the justice system that we have and that means you can’t have a two-tier system, it has to be fair, it has to be equal to everybody and so we have asked them to think again about this guidance,” Jones stated.

The Labour Party announced it would increase migrant spending by 30% this year. The majority of mayors in major cities are Muslim, which is not a negative but a sign of how society has changed. Muhammad has been the most popular baby boy name in the UK in recent years. The UK has lost its identity and is no longer a Christian nation. Pew Research Center believes that Muslim women will have more children than Christian women by 2035, and Islam could become the most followed religion in the world. Build Back Better nations are becoming unrecognizable as the very essence of their cultures and traditions is challenged.

I lived in London for years and fell in love with the city, but it has drastically changed, and I would not want to return as a permanent resident. Politicians are willing to change the rule of law to punish their own citizens. Britain is voting itself into extinction as repopulation theory destroys their culture and the nation they once knew.

The World Health Organization admitted that it has “no choice” but to cut its budget substantially. America’s exodus from the organization left the WHO with a budget gap of $600 million for FY2025, and it plans to cut expenditures by 20%.

The United States provided 16.3% of all funding from FY2022-2023, amounting to $1.3 billion of the organization’s $7.89 billion. Trump believes the WHO partnered with China to hide the origins of COVID-19, and he is particularly disgruntled that the US was paying 10X more into the organization compared to China at a cost of $500 million annually. “The World Health Organization has become nothing more than a corrupt Globalist scam…paid for by the United States, but owned and controlled by China,” Trump stated in November 2024. “I will not allow public health to be used as a pretext to advance the march of global government,” Trump stated before vowing to leave the organization.

“Dramatic cuts to official development assistance by the United States of America and others are causing massive disruption to countries, non-governmental organisations and United Nations agencies, including WHO,” WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in his e-mail to staffers. “While we have achieved substantial cost savings, the prevailing economic and geopolitical conditions have made resource mobilisation particularly difficult.”

Tedros is the first person in the 75-year history of the WHO who is not a medical doctor. Klaus Schwab supported him for that post, just as he recommended Lagarde for the IMF and then for the European Central Bank. He has also put in the head of the IMF from his board of the WEF as well. Schwab has the WHO in his back pocket. To put someone who is not a medical doctor at the head of the World Health Organization would be like putting Jeffrey Epstein as the head of a monastery.

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation was the second-largest donor to the WHO, and Gates used the organization to push the pandemic response, urging nations to use the very vacations he helped to fund. That man had ties to every globalist health organization. Still, Gates has come forward in recent weeks saying his organization simply can’t make up for the budget gap caused by the US withdrawing—and that is GOOD NEWS.

All the world leaders supporting the Great Reset were eager to relinquish complete power to the unelected officials at the WHO. The WHO wanted to seize the ability to force health mandates on the global population. The organization continually asks for global taxation in the name of health.

The scheme is to eliminate democracy. They accomplished that in Europe, where the people are allowed to vote only for an MP who has no power to overrule the Commission, which never stands for election, as is the case with the head of the EU, who is also UNELECTED by the people. The general belief is that the people are TOO STUPID to know what is best, and democracy became populism when Trump was elected. This proposal is clearly stated as part of the Great Reset put out by Klaus Schwab and the World Economic Forum.

The Pandemic Treaty would have allowed the WHO to bypass national laws and impose its will on the people. There has never been a more massive power grab than what we witnessed under the guise of the pandemic. The WHO attempted to force nations to sign a Pandemic Treaty in 2022 to ensure it could remain in control:

“The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed gaps in the governance, financing and systems needed to keep the world safe from epidemics and pandemics. There is an emerging global consensus around the need for an international treaty or other legally binding instrument, to provide the framework for a more coherent and coordinated response to future epidemics and pandemics.”

They had plans for global passports, taxation, and every method to provide a small group of unelected “visionaries” with centralized control over the world. The WHO is one of the organizations that was used to help them achieve their goal. As stated on the World Economic Forum’s website:

“To achieve a better outcome, the world must act jointly and swiftly to revamp all aspects of our societies and economies, from education to social contracts and working conditions. Every country, from the United States to China, must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed. In short, we need a “Great Reset” of capitalism.”

Now I could go on endlessly about the plans for the Great Reset, but focusing on the WHO’s involvement—their role was to weaponize public health to provide the WEF and UN with the ability to restructure the global economy. Trump’s withdrawal from the organization was a major win for global freedom. We will see the nations still on board with the Great Reset attempt to boost funding, as the power the pandemic provided was far too great to relinquish.

The US Congressional Budget Office is warning that the federal deficit has hit a point of no return. It is far too late to cut wasteful government spending. Politicians have kicked the can down the road for far too long and left us with a financial system held up through perpetual borrowing that cannot be reversed.

The CBO’s long-term forecast shows the federal deficit rising to 7.3% of GDP by 2055, but the figure is currently at 6.2% as of 2025 and this is an optimistic report. In contrast, the 30-year average from 1995 to 2024 was 3.9% of GDP. Public debt is projected to hit 156% of GDP by 2055, up from the 100% of GDP we face today.

Now the CBO mentioned that Trump’s tariffs could negatively impact the economy but we reached the point of no return years ago. Trump cannot be blamed for the current situation in the least. “Mounting debt would slow economic growth, push up interest payments to foreign holders of U.S. debt and pose significant risks to the fiscal and economic outlook,” the Long-Term Budget Outlook: 2025 to 2055 stated.

The Baby Boomer generation is at or nearing retirement and Social Security benefits are currently at 5.2% of GDP. The CBO believes this will reach 6.1% of GDP in 2055 but fail to recognize the fund is drying up. The Ponzi Scheme will come crashing down.

Interest expenditures alone have hit 3.2% of GDP as America. In 2024, the US spent $881 billion simple to finance its massive debt, and that figure is projected to reach $1.8 trillion by 2035. We spend more on servicing debt than we do on defense spending at this point.

Raising taxes cannot solve this massive issue, but that will not prevent the government from attempting to extort the people to cover their fiscal mismanagement. The government knows it is trapped and will continue to hold off on paying down their debt as long as possible. Worse still, other nations are decreasing their investments in Treasuries as we have seen with China and Russia. Japan is our main buyer now but they have their own colossal problems.

The debt crisis is global. America is far from the only nation facing an outright default, and as I have warned, we will see the pieces crumble one by one with America being the last frontier. This is precisely why Europe wants war because they are attempting to delay the inevitable collapse. Some believe they can confiscate Russian natural resources and save the day, but that is simply neocon fanfiction.

The ECM has pinpointed key turning points in the global economy, and the next phase of this crisis is unfolding right before our eyes. The sovereign debt crisis is inevitable, and as we approach 2028–2032, we will see capital flow away from the West once confidence in government collapses.

The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced plans to cut its workforce by a quarter, eliminating 10,000 positions. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has vowed to gut the entire agency in his effort to Make America Healthy Again, vowing that eliminating excess bureaucracy will allow the agency “to do more with less.”

The agency plans to cut $11 billion in public health funding, and while Kennedy admits there will be a “painful period” ahead, one must look at the numbers and realize that these inflated agencies have not led to improved health care. “All of that money,” Kennedy said of the department’s $1.7 trillion yearly budget, “has failed to improve the health of Americans.”

America is one of the sickest nations in the developed world. Critics believe that these cuts will damage public health, but America is spending nearly 18% of its GDP on health care initiatives without results. The average American will not live to see 80 years of age. The average life expectancy stands around 76.4 years, according to the CDC, with women living an average of 79.3 years and men expiring sooner at 73.5. Those figures have been steadily declining each year. In comparison, the global average is 82.5 years.

The US ranks 32 out of 38 OCED nations for life expectancy. Yet, the US spends far more per capita on health compared to other developed nations. In 2023, America spent $13,432 per capita. In comparison, Switzerland and Germany, the second and third highest spenders, only pay a bit over $7,000 per capita and have healthier populations.

Young Americans (25-29) are dying at a rate 3X higher than their peers in advanced economies. Kennedy’s main platform has been to speak on behalf of the children of America, who are facing increased risks of illness compared to past generations. Kennedy claims 66% of children suffer from some form of a health condition, with other estimates putting this figure closer to 40%.

The Biden Administration increased the health department budget by 38% and inflated the workforce by 17%. Additional funding did not address the root causes of America’s health epidemic. Kennedy plans to consolidate 28 divisions into 15, and will cut regional offices from 10 to 5. A more cohesive agency will provide a “new era of responsiveness and a new era of effectiveness,” as we cannot continue funding measures that are not producing results.

Two men were pulled over while driving on I-20 in Texas, carrying $250,000 worth of gold bars. US law permits and encourages law enforcement to confiscate assets. Civil asset forfeiture enables the government to simply seize assets and declare that the owner is guilty of money laundering before any due process occurs.

“We have to be able to prove what that criminal activity was, in other words how they got the money that they laundered. A lot of times that’s hard when your case starts with a traffic stop,” DA Tonda Curry said. Officers and drug sniffing dogs searched the men and their vehicle but found nothing aside from the gold. Curry initially attempted to pin the men with money laundering charges but could not make a case. The DA then determined that the men were involved in some criminal organization “that defrauds the elderly with investment-type scams.”

Since they were instantly charged with a crime, the law permitted the officers to confiscate the gold. “So he can’t give it back to them and let them go on down the road, it’s not theirs,” the DA explained, saying that charging the men with a civil case would be easier to prove than an actual criminal investigation.

“Even if I can’t say exactly what [crime] it was, why should they be able to profit off of it? Why should it not go back into fighting crime in our communities?” Curry said.

Civil asset forfeiture is blatant legal theft. The lawyers for the men received 24 oz of the stolen gold, and the county confiscated the rest that was worth an estimated $195,000.

“For a small county like ours, it’s a big, big relief for the taxpayers,” she said. “Even if I can’t say exactly what [crime]  it was, why should they be able to profit off of it? Why should it not go back into to fighting crime in our communities?”

The entire premise of civil forfeiture is that the government can seize your assets without even charging you with a crime, let alone convicting you in a court of law. The government deploys law enforcement to act as their mob collectors, and again, no crime needs to be committed. This happens regularly, and the person who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time is immediately GUILTY until proven innocent. They have taken people off trains, planes, traffic stops– you name it–and accused them of criminal activity. If the government finds you with a tangible asset they want, they can take it from you, and it is then your responsibility and obligation to prove that you did not commit a crime.

The government has openly taken gold, cash, homes, cars, and even businesses in the name of money laundering, or in this case, an unnamed crime that they did not need to prove because the men happened to be Chinese nationals. So they stole a quarter-million from them and deported them back to China, then cheered that the funds would help the local government.

Law enforcement agencies no longer act as protectors of the public but as revenue collectors, seizing property from people who, in many cases, have done nothing wrong.

For centuries, the main reason no government has ever survived its own greed for money and power is that whoever is in power at present constantly assumes that this time it is different—they are in charge. Communities rise from humble beginnings and expand into formal governments that seek to become nation-states, often absorbing the communities around them. When they emerge as a nation, they will typically seek to expand further into empires. To maintain that lofty position, they will inevitably become authoritarian when they feel that power slipping away.

Thomas Paine (1737-1809), whom the British hated because he wrote Common Sense, finally influenced the American colonists to rise up against the abuse of the king and centralized government in England, which they called – no taxation without representation. Thomas explained that those in control bathe themselves in glory and power and quickly forget that they are not the sovereign of the state – that is, the people. Pasine explanned:

“Some writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness; the former promotes our POSITIVELY by uniting our affections, the latter NEGATIVELY by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions.”

The very problem is emerging within states where centralized governments are seeking to strip local citizens of the right to vote in their local communities and to impose taxation without representation all over again. This is always the problem within all governments – the endless thirst for endless power, like the Neocons and their endless wars of conquest.

Home Rule in the United States is becoming a major issue as a consequence of severe abuse of authority by tyrannical state governments seeking to grab power from municipal governments, often being “bribed” by real estate developers who don’t want to have to comply with local zoning regulations and approvals from municipalities. This is the very same tyranny that led to the American Revolution – no taxation without representation.

These state politicians are seeking to usurp all the rights of local residents because some real estate developer has “donated” to someone’s campaign to overrule a local community by overriding local zoning regulations put in place by local residents. Any politician who makes such a motion in a state legislature should be compelled to disclose ALL donations and promises of future contributions or job offers. To submit such a motion with a conflict of interest should result in disbarment from ever holding public office and 20 years in prison.

It is time this corruption ends – NOW!

Forty of the 50 states apply some form of the principle known as Dillon’s Rule, which says that local governments may exercise only powers that the state grants explicitly to them, to determine the bounds of a municipal government’s legal authority. Dillon resigned from the bench and became a professor of law at Columbia University from 1879 to 1882. This is outrageous and tyrannical, contrary to the very principles on which the American Revolution was fought. This theory of state preeminence over local municipal governments was expressed as Dillon’s Rule in an 1868 Iowa State case:

“Municipal corporations owe their origin to, and derive their powers and rights wholly from, the legislature. It breathes into them the breath of life, without which they cannot exist. As it creates, so may it destroy. If it may destroy, it may abridge and control”.

Clinton v Cedar Rapids and the Missouri River Railroad, (24 Iowa 455; 1868)(Per Curiam.)

However, against this tyrannical decision stands the Cooley Doctrine, often referred to as the Doctrine of Home Rule.  This doctrine upheld the spirit of the American Revolution as it recognized an inherent right to local self-determination, which should be a human right. In a concurring opinion, Michigan Supreme Court Justice Thomas M. Cooley in 1871 stated:

“local government is a matter of absolute right; and the state cannot take it away”.

In the treatise Municipal Corporations (1872), Dillon contended that the power of states is unlimited, with the only restrictions under the state or federal constitutions. He wrote that municipalities only have the powers expressly granted to them by the state. Therefore, in a typical tyrant of centralized power like the King of England in 1776, the power of a municipality’s very existence rested upon the state’s authority. This formulation of the municipal power scope became known as “Dillon’s Rule.” It is clearly one-sided and seeks to expand the power of a state over all municipalities. Then the King was right, the American colonists should have shut up and jumped as high as the king commanded. Overlooked is that these municipalities in the 13 colonies pre-existed the states. He advocated a usurpation of local power, and that is the very power grab that has destroyed every form of government for thousands of years.

One of the best examples of this abuse of power is probably Russia. Lenin, although communist, was copying the United States, whereas the individual republics would retain their separate culture and sovereignty. Sensing there would be a future political crisis, Lenin’s Testament became a document dictated in late 1922 and early 1923. Lenin proposed changes to the structure of the Soviet governing bodies and criticised Bolshevik leaders Zinoviev, Kamenev, Trotsky, Bukharin, Pyatakov, and Stalin. He warned of the possibility of a split developing in the party leadership between Trotsky and Stalin. Lenin also suggested that Joseph Stalin be removed from his position as General Secretary of the Russian Communist Party’s Central Committee. Stalin seized power upon Lenin’s death and carried out in Russia the equivalent of Dillon’s Rule. He stripped all the republics of their independence and sovereignty and established a centralized power in Moscow that eliminated all local municipal rule and autonomy. This is what is being carried out right now at the state level in the USA – both blue and red states.

The Supreme Court of the United States cited Municipal Corporations and fully adopted Dillon’s emphasis on state power over municipalities in Hunter v. Pittsburgh, 207 U.S. 161 (1907), written by Justice William Henry Moody (1853–1917), a Progressive appointed by Teddy Roosevelt, believing in the supreme power of government. The Progressive Justice Moody upheld the power of Pennsylvania to consolidate the city of Allegheny into the city of Pittsburgh, despite the objections of a majority of Allegheny’s residents. The Court’s ruling held that states could alter or even abolish at will the charters of municipal corporations without infringing upon contract rights, relying upon Dillon’s distinction between public, municipal corporations and private ones. However, the Court did not prevent states from passing legislation or amending their constitutions to explicitly allow home rule.

The Court also did not address the entire core issue of taxation without representation. That argument has not been raised and goes to the heart of the Due Process of Law secured by both the 5th and 14th Amendments.

This constitutional allowance was reiterated in Trenton v. New Jersey, 262 U.S. 182 (1923), where the Supreme Court held that:

“In the absence of state constitutional provisions safeguarding it to them, municipalities have no inherent right of self-government which is beyond the legislative control of the state, but are merely departments of the state, with powers and privileges such as the state has seen fit to grant, held and exercised subject to its sovereign will”.

These decisions are anti-democratic and are purely the way governments always behave to usurp supreme power, leading to their self-destruction.  Neither of these decisions dealt with the fact of local taxation or zoning. What is taking place now is the attempt at usurpation of power by centralized government in the spirit of Joseph Stalin rather than Thomas Jefferson. You bought a house in a particular municipality for the quality of the local school, the local zoning ensuring it remains residential, and because of property taxes. States think that they can usurp local power, take bribes from developers, and overrule local residents, denying them Due Process of Law, which is the cornerstone of freedom, including the right to be heard.

1. Kentucky (1792): Originally part of Virginia, it was ceded to the federal government and admitted as a separate state. While not a direct “split” in the same political context as Maine or West Virginia, it originated from Virginia’s territory.
2. Tennessee (1796): Formed from land ceded by North Carolina to the federal government, which later became the Southwest Territory before statehood. Like Kentucky, this was a territorial transition rather than a direct split.

The Dakota Territory was established in 1861, covering present-day North Dakota, South Dakota, and parts of Montana and Wyoming. On November 2, 1889, it was split into the states of North Dakota and South Dakota as part of the U.S. government’s push to admit western territories as states. The division was driven by political and economic factors, including railroad interests and balancing congressional representation.

In Florida, Key West humorously attempted to “secede” from the United States in 1982, an event now famously known as the creation of the Conch Republic. The U.S. Border Patrol set up a roadblock and immigration checkpoint on the only highway connecting the Florida Keys to the mainland, causing severe traffic delays and economic harm to tourism. Since you had to prove you were an American to leave Key West, the Fed made it seem you were not part of the USA. On April 23, 1982, Key West officials declared “independence” as the Conch Republic, completing a mock secession ceremony. Mayor Dennis Wardlow “surrendered” to a naval officer and demanded $1 billion in “foreign aid” to rebuild. The Gesture was a smash hit in Miami. The secession was a satirical protest, not a legal attempt. It aimed to draw attention to the checkpoint’s negative impact and advocate for its removal.

The stunt garnered national media coverage, and the checkpoint was eventually lifted. The Conch Republic remains a beloved symbol of local identity, celebrated annually with festivals. There are restaurants still named the Conch Republic – the symbolism of what America was all about – FREEDOM! While Key West never legally seceded, the event was a creative and successful protest that highlighted community concerns while embracing a whimsical spirit.

States are Grabbing Power to our Destruction

This is not a whimsical protest anymore. States are seeking dictatorial power and eradicating the Due Process Rights of their citizens. This is as bad as what Stalin did to Russia, stripping the republics of their sovereignty that Lenin promised. This is the backdrop to rising civil unrest and the ultimate separation of the United States, as every empire has collapsed throughout history. The United States, Europe, and Canada, for that matter, are all feeling oppressed by a centralized government. Under the parliamentary system, the people have no due process right to vote for who will be the head of state. We are witnessing this even in Florida, and these oppressive power grabs are undermining the very foundation of our communities and nation.

We need DOGE at the State Levels as well!!!!!

Any politician who Submits Bills to Strip Local Residents of the right to be heard under Due Process is a traitor to the Constitution and everything the American Revolution was fought for.

This is happening in both Blue & Red States – even here in Florida.

This moral corruption MUST stop!

Some Propose Mass Refusal to Pay Property Taxes without Representation

 

QUESTION: We all know that you are friends with Anna Paulina Luna and that you endorsed her. That suggests she must be the real deal since I do not recall you endorsing anyone, even Trump. So what’s up? She dropped a bombshell on FOX that NBC has a tape proving Oswald could not have been the shooter.

Care to chime in?

PJ

ANSWER: I like to meet people face to face, not just shake hands at a cocktail party. In law, one of the first things they teach you is never to joke in court because when the transcript comes out, all that is recorded are the words: “Ya, and I killed JFK, too.”  You can say that being sarcastic, but reading just the words, it looks like you confessed. I need to look into someone’s eyes, for they never lie. It is not just words; it is also how those words are said. We are in this stupid war supporting Ukrainian Neo-Nazis all because the CIA protected them because they were killing Russians, Jews, and Polish, but at least they were killing Russians so that made it all OK.

Anna has a fire in her belly. I said that to her face. She is honest and passionate. That is why Trump handed her this commission. She was not selected for some political payback BS.  She is determined to get to the truth. I can vouch for that.

She will follow the evidence. Yet, she truly cares about the country and wants to keep us out of Europe’s World War III desires. She knows my advice: get out of NATO ASAP. NATO is claiming it can defeat Russia without the USA.

Because of this, the Democrats are trying to raise a war chest to defeat her and keep the corrupt Deep State status quo. Many are now realizing she is worth supporting. They just oppose Trump, yet have no actual alternative to offer, but keep the corruption in place, protecting the Deep State. As I have said, I also knew Arlan Spector, the Democratic Senator who came up with the magic bullet theory to cover up the JFK shooting. He lived a few doors from me on the beach.

The Democrats are trapped by their own stupidity, still pushing transgender and WOKE. Even the pardons with an autopen are unbelievable. Biden couldn’t have taken the time to sign these pardons personally? Even Bill Maher has called these Democrats brats.

The Progressive Europeans are doing the same as the Democrats – shutting down free speech when it criticizes their politics. At least Italy’s Meloni cautions EU on US trade war, won’t send troops to Ukraine. She was the ONLY European leader to attend Trump’s Inauguration. At least the Danish Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, a socialist, has finally agreed with her right-wing counterparts that mass migration into Europe is a significant threat to the continent’s way of life.

At what point does the country come before loyalty to your political party?
