“Trump WON the War!” – According to a Loser (VIDEO) – AwakenWithJP – JP SUMS IT UP PERFECTLY, LOVE IT. A MUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Sport of Kings The Great Game and its Ancient Counter – “On April 27th, 1961, John Fitzgerald Kennedy stood before the American Newspaper Publishers Association and spoke words that would echo through the decades. He spoke of a conspiracy—”a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy,” he called it—that relied not on armies but on infiltration, not on invasion but on subversion, not on elections but on intimidation. He named what he saw with a precision that’s never been improved upon. He saw it. He named it. Publicly. Precisely. Two years and seven months later, he was dead.His brother, five years after that. One death is grief. Two is horror. But when you see the same method deployed against the same kind of person—across three decades, across three continents, inside the families and institutions they built and led—you’re no longer looking at tragedy. You’re looking at doctrine.” – E.M. Burlingame

Despite Over 100 Deaths in Moderna’s mRNA Flu Trial – Committee Recommends that the FDA Move Forward with Approval – “Moderna reported 102 deaths in the mRNA group. mRNA products are not only not safe and not effective – this new FDA data reaffirms mRNA injections are often dangerously harmful and sometimes lethal.. Adults aged 50-64 have a 0.015% of dying from the flu vs. 0.3% from a flu injection = a 20-fold (1900%) increase). Adults 65 and older have a 0.05% chance of dying from the flu vs 0.3% from a flu injection = 6-fold (500%) increase.” – Karen Kingston

The Truth About the “Screwworm Outbreak” and the U.S. Beef Industry’s Rising Prices – “First, as of this month, June of 2026, there have allegedly been a total of six cases of New World screwworm (NWS) found in the U.S. Yes, you read that correctly: 6 TOTAL CASES IN THE ENTIRE U.S. From these very few cases of screwworm infection in the U.S., the government is doing what it usually does when there is some kind of “deadly disease breakout,” by putting into place a plan of action that will cost hundreds of millions of dollars which will then go into the U.S. economy to stop this “breakout.” That means some people are going to suffer economic hardship (usually the American consumer first and foremost),” – Brian Shilhavy

Peace and the Perpetual Persecution Complex – “The Luck of the Non-Irish. Just the other day, President Trumpenstein negotiated a ceasefire with Iran. I guess it’s a peace deal, but they’re calling it a Memorandum of Understanding. You’d think that this would be considered a good thing. Think again. It is a very bad thing, according to every high profile Zionist, who all have raging war boners. Because of this too late and too little gesture of half-assed diplomacy, poor Trumpenstein is in hot water with the non-Irish. They may be changing the Israeli streets named after him as we speak. Perhaps they prefer Rubio Boulevard? After all, Vice President J.D. Vance is now despised by the Zionists as well. I’m not sure what he did. Perhaps they sensed an unsatisfactory level of enthusiasm for this nonsensical war? Maybe he was disgusted at the killing of 150 Iranian girls?” – Donald Jeffries

The “Deal” – “It is hard to make sense of – to believe – that the “deal” supposedly reached between the United States and Iran means the war’s over. It probably means the war is on pause, again. Israel hasn’t agreed to anything, for one – and even if Israel did, Israel’s word is worth about as much as (dare it be said?) Hitler’s, with regard to promises of non-aggression. Peace in our time? Maybe a kind of peace for a couple of weeks. But it all seems to good to be true. Why would the leadership of Iran give up control over the Strait of Hormuz?” – Eric Peters

The First Secretary of War Loses A War – “With the details of the signed Memorandum of Understanding still unclear, it does appear, for all intents and purposes, that the United States has lost the war with Iran. That means Pete Hegseth, the first Secretary of War, has lost a war. As if the US couldn’t look more foolish, the MoU gives the US nothing it wanted when it comes to the military objectives it was pursuing in Iran. The only big “accomplishment” is that Iran will reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but not “toll-free” as US President Donald Trump claimed.” – Mac Slavo

The Iran War Is Dismantling The American Empire – ““Overgrown military establishments” now define the United States. For the U.S., war has little to do with defense and everything to do with feeding an always-hungry war-based economy. Congressmen and senators from both parties are perpetually compelled to satisfy the insatiable lust for money from the public treasury by the military-industrial/surveillance-technocratic establishment in return for generous “contributions” to their re-election campaigns. The annual taxpayer funding for the war profiteers is more than $1.5 trillion. That amounts to 750 military bases in over 80 countries all over the world.” – Chuck Baldwin

Clueless Joe Biden Has to be Directed Off Stage at Obama Library Opening Ceremony (VIDEO) – “The $850 million eyesore that resembles a trashcan will officially open on Friday (Juneteenth). However, the Obamas threw a star-studded opening ceremony with Hollywood elitists on Thursday. The opening ceremony began with a “stolen land acknowledgment” from Valerie Jarrett. An angry Michelle Obama took several jabs at President Trump. As expected, Barack Obama delivered a divisive, anti-American speech. Barack Obama gave a shoutout to the far-left anti-ICE insurrectionists who violently attacked federal agents in Minneapolis. At one point Obama praised Joe Biden and thanked him for his partnership.” – Cristina Laila

Fyodor Lukanov breaks it down for us in easy to understand terms. Hopefully the neocons in Washington will take note, but don’t count on it.” – Leo Hohmann

War on Iran costs total $630 billion to $1 trillion. This will Bankrupt the Nation already circling the Drain – “The conflict’s 40-day intensity rivaled the total spending of the 20-year wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.” – The Silver Academy

Trump Now Seeks US Control Over Russia’s State-Owned Natural Resource Companies – Andrew Korybko

Zelensky Launches Mass-Attack on Moscow to Impress His Brussels Curators – “Last night Ukraine staged a massive attack on Moscow, which is likely the largest ever of the war. Ukrainian sources estimate over 550 drones and “missiles” (a type of jet powered drone-missile hybrid) were utilized in the strikes. Though it doesn’t mean strikes on Moscow will cease—far from it—a strike of this magnitude was likely a one-off for several reasons.” – Simplicius

The sell-off in gold and silver continued this week, doubtless with the establishment’s paper shorts eying up the 4,121 tons held in gold ETFs: shake the trees and some is bound to come out.

What Stories Are You Leaving Behind For Your Grandchildren – “A man can leave his grandchildren a rifle, a pantry, a hand pump, and a stack of old tools. Those things have value. Good gear, useful land, and a well-built home can bless a family for years. Still, one of the strongest things a man can leave behind is a story. The stories a family carries shape how the next generation sees hardship. They teach children what kind of people they come from. They show them how their grandparents endured loss, hunger, war, sickness, failure, faith, hard work, and rebuilding.” – Alec Deacon

Top-Down Solutions Don’t Work – “Look at simple things like laws: speeding laws, laws against theft, laws against rape, and murder—all things people believe are absolutely necessary in a sane and decent culture. And as things are now (and for the most part always have been) these laws are indeed necessary to keep the community safe and functioning. But they do nothing at all to cure the indecency, suffering, and drive to commit atrocious crimes. Or even simple crimes” – Todd Hayen, PhD, RP

Dialog, Polymarket & Palantir – “The Room Where It Happens. And What They’re Planning. I covered Dialog earlier this year. Called it what it is. Hardly anyone was listening. A data leak has a way of changing that. Twenty years. No website. No member list. No record of what was discussed inside. Just Peter Thiel’s private planning society, gathering quietly, year after year, among people who described their own purpose as wanting to “implement the plans we develop.” Not discuss. Implement. Now they have your attention. What Is Dialog Dialog was co-founded in 2006 by Peter Thiel, Palantir chairman, PayPal co-founder, early Facebook investor and data entrepreneur Auren Hoffman. It describes itself as an off-the-record forum for executives, elected officials, and academics. Media comparisons to Bilderberg and the World Economic Forum are frequent and deliberate. Like those bodies, Dialog has spent two decades cultivating the appearance of irrelevance while operating at the highest levels of global influence.” – Sir Escanor (𝘏𝘰𝘱𝘪𝘶𝘮 𝘚𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘦𝘳)

The Most Probable Immediate Future in the Middle East Will Satisfy Few – “Thoughts on the Memorandum of Understanding between the US and Iran. Enough of the US Empire’s ruling oligarchy has decided that the Strait of Hormuz must reopen, and remain open, to force Trump to go around Israel and make enough of a deal with Iran to do that thing. Israel will, of course, try its best to sabotage it by inflicting atrocities on Lebanese and Palestinian civilians. Iran will eventually retaliate forcibly against Israel. Netanyahu will be inclined to gamble that he can force the US back into the war, but the odds are against him. Chances are Trump, and the AIPAC-dominated Congress, will continue to funnel money and weapons to Israel. The genocidal Zionist bastards will keep massacring Arabs, and Iran will keep pummeling Israel, but the oil and the urea and stuff will continue to flow.” – Ohio Barbarian

The Iran Fiasco’s Silver Lining: Trump, Bibi & The Neocons Got Their Clocks Cleaned – “If you don’t think the Donald inhabits an alternative universe—just set your mandibles loose to chomp on his most recent missive.

This Is The Trigger That Could Shred The Memorandum Of Understanding And Cause All-Out War To Erupt In The Middle East – “I cannot understand the people that are dancing around and celebrating the “memorandum of understanding” now that we have the full text of the agreement. The status of the war in Lebanon is covered in the very first point of the “memorandum of understanding”… Iranian officials believe that this makes it very clear that the IDF must leave Lebanon. U.S. and Israeli officials are convinced that the document does not say that at all. Of course Israel has not consented to anything and is not a party to this agreement.” – Michael Snyder

“The Impact was Devastating”: Chicago’s Cross Burning Found to be Set by Liberal, Anti-Trump Protester – “After the Southern Poverty Law Center scandal of actually funding and encouraging racist protests, it appears that at least one individual has created his own orchestrated racist incident. In Chicago (where Jussie Smollett committed his infamous racist hoax), a burning cross was denounced by Mayor Brandon Johnson as a sign of the racism in society. Johnson, however, refused to address the fact that the cross burning was actually the work of an anti-Trump liberal student. University of Illinois senior Merlin Lu said it was never intended as a racist symbol, but the question is whether it could still be charged as a hate crime.” – Jonathan Turley

The Kevin Warsh Era Begins – “At first, the June announcement from the Federal Open Market Committee that there would be no change in the federal funds rate seemed right in line with Wall Street expectations. This was exactly what Wall Street had priced in weeks ago. On the rate announcement, Wall Street was not disappointed. Then newly-minted Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh opened up his mouth, and it was that moment when the markets started heading south, dropping nearly 600 points over the course of the post-FOMC presser, a performance that surely had former Fed Chairman Jay “Too Little, Too Late” Powell downright jealous.

The market got drunk on Long Island iced tea that day as the stock closed up 183%. That’s some strong tea. That these companies receive new money, and that their stock prices go up, is evidence that many people are gambling rather than investing in productive enterprises.” – John Hunt, MD

Peace Is Restored… So Gold and Silver Go Back Up? – “So what happened? One very likely possibility is that the market was never trading the war itself. It was trading liquidity. When the conflict began, investors suddenly faced enormous uncertainty. Money rushed toward oil, cash and dollar-denominated assets. The demand for liquidity overwhelmed traditional safe-haven buying. In that environment, even gold and silver became sources of funds rather than destinations for capital. We’ve seen this movie before.” – Kerry Lutz

The Backyard Superfood Most Homesteaders Are Letting Rot On The Ground – Bill Heid

What Happens to Your Body When You Start Eating Survival Food Full Time – “Most people build a survival pantry by asking one basic question: how long will the food last? That matters, but it is only half the story. The harder question is what happens when that pantry stops being backup food and becomes every meal, every day. Eating survival food full time can keep you alive, but the body does not experience that switch as a neat spreadsheet of calories, servings, and expiration dates. It experiences it as a sudden change in fiber, sodium, water demand, meal volume, fat quality, protein pattern, gut bacteria, and micronutrient intake.” – Bob Rodgers

Death of Kyle Busch: “Nothing to See Here” (VIDEO) – “Kyle Busch was a two-time Cup champion and fierce competitor holding NASCAR’s all-time record of 234 national series victories. While the mainstream media brushed his unexpected death off to “pneumonia and sepsis” I wondered why there was no mention of the causative organism, use of ECMO, and how unusual it was for a 41 year old man to die of an illness where the average age is 77 years and after 4-6 days in the hospital ICU. “Died of pneumonia” — that’s what the public was told. “I’ve never had a man in his young 40s die in 24 hours of a hemorrhagic pneumonia.” This is not a marginal observation. It is a statistical near-impossibility in the absence of some underlying pathology.” – Peter A. McCullough, MD, MPH

Shame on the New York Times – “War Just Happens, I guess. This was the lede that greeted me from the New York Times this morning: A hope for peace The war in Iran has killed thousands of people, disrupted shipping, inflated prices and shaken the global economy. And it may be over soon. Isn’t that amazing. A war in Iran has killed thousands of people. Like an uncontrollable, unpredictable, natural disaster. Like an earthquake. No mention that Israeli and U.S. missile and bomb strikes killed thousands of Iranians, so many of them innocents, including the now infamous strike on a primary school in Minab that killed 150+.” – Bill Astore

So, What Do We Know? – “we learned this morning that despite Donald Trump’s declaration that the strait is now open the strait will actually remain closed until the official signing occurs on Friday – ostensibly to provide time for mine clearing operations. Needless to say, a week is a long time in Middle East geopolitics. Firstly, the agreement is not really a ‘deal’ at all, or even a deal to have a deal, but rather a memorandum of understanding staking out a framework to discuss a deal over the next 60 days.” – Benjamin Picton

So After Everything That Has Transpired, Now We Go All The Way Back To Square One With Iran – “There seems to be a tremendous amount of confusion about what has just transpired. The United States and Iran have not agreed to a permanent peace deal. What the United States and Iran have agreed to is a 60 day ceasefire extension and the beginning of a 60 day period of negotiations regarding Iran’s nuclear program. This “memorandum of understanding” essentially puts us into a position that is very similar to where we were just prior to the start of the war” – Michael Snyder

Who Won The Third Gulf War? – “Iran is poised to gradually return to the US-led Western order within certain limits exactly as Iran’s moderate faction has long wanted, its hardline faction has successfully preserved the armed forces and their missile stockpile, while Israel achieved none of its goals in its most epic defeat ever.” – Andrew Korybko

Rahm was the White House chief of staff during the Clinton administration, and Ezekiel is an oncologist and bioethicist. Ian Carroll, an independent researcher and host of The Ian Carroll Show, posted a video on June 13 exploring Ari Emanuel’s background. “UFC is owned by Ari Emanuel, son of Benjamin Emanuel—an actual Israeli terrorist,” Carrol said. “His IMG agency supplied models to Epstein’s Jean-Luc Brunel.

Reimagining Jesus as ‘Abortion Doula’ – “Closeted middle-aged lesbian, recreational softball catcher, and “feminist social ethicist,” Rev. Dr. Rebecca Todd Peters somehow got herself put in charge of First Presbyterian Church in Durham, NC. In her appearances evangelizing to her flock, she often can be seen to wear Planned Parenthood paraphernalia while evangelizing about the virtues of abortion.

Invasion of the Killer Data Centers – “Who controls what data? Data centers are being constructed now on a scale never seen before. These big, beautiful data centers have been described as “foundational to how modern society functions.” And, like so many other nefarious things, they are said to be vital to national security. This would be the same society that is so concerned about national security they left the southern border completely open for decades, and are now hot and heavy to merge our military together with that of another nation. So who is paying for all these data centers? That’s a bit unclear, as you might expect. As always, the Zionist connection is prominent.” – Donald Jeffries

The US Empire is Retrenching, Bringing Imperialism Home – “The US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding may be signed already. If it is, 60 days of retrenchment, rejuvenation and rest may be on tap. Donald Trump certainly needs it, and so does the world. Our military footprint in the Gulf and the region has contracted; this will continue. What we just watched over the past 100 days was an unusually vivid moment in the long slow collapse of the US military and financial empire. Conversely, tiny Israel saw its fluid borders expand in all four directions. From this fiasco, paradigmatic and strategic changes to America’s parasitic national security state are coming.” – Karen Kwiatkowski

Preparing for the Inevitable – “It looks as if Turkey is gearing up for its inevitable war with Israel: Convening before the Turkish legislature, Erdoğan cast Israel as the architect of a broader scheme to destabilize the Mediterranean, warning that “nobody should chase adventures” or enlist in Israel’s “boat of mischief.” Should any party move against the interests of Turkish nationals or Turkish Cypriots, Erdoğan made plain, Ankara stood ready to deliver a response both clear and strong. Erdoğan added that “Damascus and Beirut are two sister cities of Istanbul. Turkey’s security begins in Aleppo, in Damascus, and in Beirut.” The Turkish president further stated that “we will not tolerate any fait accompli in the lands of our brothers, and we will not turn a blind eye to any attack against our brothers.” He attacked Israel, claiming, “These people and their mercenaries go around throwing so-called threats at Turkey here and there. There is no need for you to say this – we know your intentions and your targets very well.

Silver’s Last Dip Before SYSTEM MELTDOWN? (VIDEO) with Bill Holter – “f you hold metal, it’s a short-term pain. If you know what the endgame is, it doesn’t matter how you get there. And the endgame is the currency’s literally melting. The currency is becoming worthless. Banks aren’t functioning. Brokers aren’t functioning. Insurance companies aren’t functioning. Finance is not functioning. When that comes down, I don’t think you’re going to be able to pay your your electric bill with junk silver or any type of silver or any type of gold. But yeah, you’ll be able to use junk silver if you need something fixed at your property. Uh you’ll be able to trade silver with a farmer for eggs or chickens or whatever. So it’s going tobe limited, but you’ll have more possibilities of transacting than if you don’t have silver. You’re not going to be able to pay your mortgage. I mean,everything’s going to stop.

Social Security is officially six years away from running out of money – “Every spring, the US government performs one of its rare acts of radical honesty: the Social Security Board of Trustees publishes an annual report stating, in plain language, exactly when the program will run out of money. It arrives without a press conference and with barely any news coverage — just a few hundred pages of actuarial tables quietly uploaded to a government website. The 2026 edition came out on Tuesday; it is the 86th annual report. And its headline finding is that Social Security’s main retirement trust fund — formally Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, or OASI — is now projected to run out of money in 2032. That’s one year earlier than last year’s projection.” – James Hickman (Simon Black)

Silver is a fine long-term hedge, but in the early months of a real collapse, nobody is trading you a can of beans for a coin. I want to be clear – I’m not here to bash silver. I own some, and I plan to keep owning some. The problem isn’t the metal itself – it’s the timeline most preppers carry in their head. That timeline is wrong by about eighteen months, and the gap between what people expect silver to do and what it actually does in those first six months is where families end up hungry, exposed, and out of options.” – P.J.  – SOME GOOD POINTS HERE, BUT SILVER WILL ALWAYS BE BETTER AN FIAT IN A COLLAPSE!!!!

Serving Your Community When Resources Are Tight – “A lot of people talk about community when times are good. Hard times reveal whether that word means anything. When money is thin, shelves are uncertain, and everybody feels the squeeze, most families turn inward. That is understandable. A man has a duty to protect his household. A mother has every right to guard the pantry, the budget, and the peace of her home. But that does not mean service disappears when resources get tight. It means service becomes more thoughtful, more practical, and more disciplined.” – Alec Deacon

Fool Me Once? Shame On You. Fool Me 39 Times…? – “According to our recently published energy strategy report, 103 Days, 38 Peace Deals, yesterday’s announcement would constitute the 39th peace deal declared since the onset of the war. But back to the peace deal, it should be noted that the provided list of “all parties involved” does not include one party who some would argue is pretty heavily involved…Iran. Perhaps Iran was counted in the “and others” part of the list, but this wouldn’t be the first time the US proposed a deal it thinks Iran can’t refuse, just for Iran to either outright refuse it, or announce that it never received such a peace deal in the first place. It should also be noted that some of the “involved parties” who were listed, like Israel and Pakistan, have confirmed that they had not been informed of any agreement at the time the peace deal was initially announced.” – Molly Schwartz

Thune indicated that it may be difficult to fill the post before June 19, when Pulte is set to take over as acting director of national intelligence if an alternative candidate isn’t confirmed.

May PPI: Stagflation Or Just Inflation? – “What Is The Producer Price Index Trying To Tell Us? The May PPI report presents the latest indicator that not only is inflation rising in this country, but also that it is likely to continue to rise for at least a few months more.” – Peter Nayland Kust

The Data Just Killed the Soft Landing… Are You Positioned? – “Everyone is calling May an energy story. Iran spiked oil, gasoline ran, and the consensus is telling you to move along because once the geopolitical noise fades, so does the inflation print. That’s not what the data says. CPI hit 4.2% year-over-year in May — fastest annual pace in three years, up from 3.8% in April. Bad enough on its own, but CPI is a lagging measure. It tells you what already happened. The pipeline tells you what’s coming. PPI — wholesale prices, what producers pay before any of it reaches the consumer — rose 1.1% in a single month. The 12-month rate is now 6.5%, highest since November 2022, and it beat Wall Street’s forecast by 57%. Economists penciled in 0.7%. They got 1.1%. The energy excuse doesn’t hold either. Core PPI — strip out food, energy, and trade services entirely — rose 0.8% in May, the largest monthly jump since March 2022. That number has nothing to do with Iran or oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. That’s embedded inflation moving through the production system independent of whatever is happening in the Middle East.” – YOUR ANALYST Graham Summers, MBA

Gold in time of war – “Currencies are debased during and after wars, because government spending goes through the roof not just due to defence spending but also because of the economic consequences. Trading short-term is particularly hazardous. But there is a major benefit for stackers prepared to benefit from an arbitrage between current investment misconceptions about the role of gold and silver, and the reality which always undermines currency values following war.” – Alasdair Macleod

The Stacker’s Field Manual: I Won’t Back or Stack Down – “Tom Petty never owned a silver stack as far as I know, but he understood something every successful stacker eventually learns: if you don’t have conviction, the market will take your metal from you. Every stacker has experienced it. You wake up one morning, check the silver price, and discover that someone dumped a mountain of paper contracts into the futures market at some ungodly hour. Silver is down. Gold is down. The financial media is already explaining why precious metals are finished and why investors should be chasing whatever shiny object Wall Street is promoting this week. The goal isn’t simply to move the price. The goal is to move you. The goal is to convince you that you made a mistake. The goal is to separate you from your metal. That’s where Tom Petty comes in. “Well, I won’t back down. No, I’ll stand my ground.”” – Kerry Lutz

Where is Anthony Fauci? – “He’s out accepting academic accolades, and ironically, this is exactly what Fauci’s COVID program was ultimately about. Whatever your views are about what was called a pandemic; and whatever your opinion may be about vaccines, it is important to realize that Fauci’s original white paper published at the NIH (National Institutes of Health) had nothing to do per se with medicine, or vaccines, viruses, pandemics or health. His white paper — almost entirely forgotten or never even seen — asserts the necessity of controlling mass human behavior. That indeed was the essence of the COVID program, with its new vocabulary of “lockdowns,” ‘shelter in place,” “social distancing,” “staying safe” and more, including testing, tracing, tracking and reporting. In addition, it was used as a way to suppress speech, as former White House advisor Dr. Scott Atlas, has repeatedly, and courageously, reminded the public. ” – Matthew G. Andersson

America the Unfree—Home of the Policed, Surveilled and Occupied – “America has become an occupied nation. Not by one invading army, but by many occupying powers: the police state, the surveillance state, the war state, the corporate state, the foreign influence machine, and a ruling class that treats the American people as little more than collateral damage in its pursuit of power, profit and control. Foreign powers are buying up our farmland, buying favor with the Trump family, weaseling their way into the White House, dictating national policy, and now—with the backing of the Trump administration and bipartisan support in Congress—one of America’s closest partners-in-crime may soon gain even greater access to U.S. intelligence and surveillance capabilities. This is what we have come to.” – John & Nisha Whitehead

The War Against Iran Continues – “America’s leaders are always boasting of precision weaponry. Yet the NYT suggests that a precision strike against an Iranian water facility was possibly unintentional, an accident, I guess. Since an intentional strike against critical infrastructure (you can’t get more critical than potable water) for civilians would constitute a war crime—and obviously America would never do that!

But here we are, nevertheless, and the chief warmonger in the Senate got himself yet another term. But even if he had lost, ‘the club’ would have given him another job elsewhere, so who are we kidding?

The only thing keeping Trump from becoming a real-life monarch is what is left of the Constitution and what is left of the American people who are willing to fight and defend it, That Trump is a Zionist is unassailable. Every decision he has made as president, every appointment he has made to his cabinet, every order he has rendered to the U.S. military and every policy relating to foreign affairs has been done not on behalf of the United States but on behalf of Israel. Israel doesn’t just influence Trump; it owns Trump, just as it owns most of the members of the U.S. Congress in both parties. Look at who Trump sends to represent the United States in diplomatic negotiations with foreign nations: his son-in-law Jared Kushner and his real estate investor golfing buddy Steve Witkoff. These two men have ZERO diplomatic experience.  But they are the president’s emissaries to Iran, Ukraine, Russia, China and any other foreign country. Why? Because 1) they are close (one being family) to Trump, and 2) they are uber Zionists. Ongoing and increasing censorship by the Trump administration and his Zionist zealots such as Mike Huckabee is proof positive that these men do NOT love freedom. They do NOT love America. And they do NOT love God or the laws of God.” – Chuck Baldwin  – GOOD ONE FROM CHUCK!!!
