"At least 100 American colleges and universities illegally withheld information on approximately $13 billion in undocumented contributions from foreign governments, many of which are authoritarian.... Speech intolerance—manifesting as campaigns to investigate, censor, demote, suspend, or terminate speakers and scholars—was higher at institutions that received undocumented money from foreign regimes." — ISGAP report, "The Corruption of the American Mind," November 2023.

When the FBI arrested billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein on July 6, 2019, at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey, disgusting revelations of his sex trafficking crimes surfaced.
So did his mysterious, monied world — populated by A-listers, politicians, and captains of industry.
Among the bizarre revelations was an oil painting hanging prominently in his Upper East Side townhouse.
Dubbed “Parsing Bill,” the colorful work by Australian artist Petrina Ryan-Kleid shows former President Clinton wearing a blue dress and red heels while lounging in the Oval Office.

Her husband, former President Bill Clinton and their daughter, Chelsea, have also been named, but they have not been accused of any wrongdoing. Attorneys for Virginia Giuffre, who accused sex offender Jeffrey Epstein of abusing her, sought in a 2015 defamation lawsuit against his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, all of her communications with former President Bill Clinton and his wife former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
The Clintons were part of a list of “thirteen specific witnesses” with whom Ms. Giuffre’s attorneys sought their communications.
In his latest episode, Tucker Carlson and Bret Weinstein discuss the long-term agenda of the World Health Organization (WHO).
Essentially, the WHO agenda ties into the larger “Western” control operation which encompasses finance and banking control (Central Bank Digital Currency) to connect with the WHO control agenda. As Weinstein talks about travel and commerce being controlled by the WHO, under the auspices of “global health initiatives” or “public health emergency,” there is an element being built in parallel which connects how citizens will be permitted to spend money.
There is zero doubt, none, that South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is positioning herself on the short list for President Trump’s Vice-President or a very senior level role in the next Trump administration. Noem is currently campaigning in Iowa as a surrogate for Donald Trump.
In this CBS interview with Major Garrett, Governor Noem explains why she supports Donald Trump and gives specific reasons why Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley will not win in Iowa, New Hampshire or South Carolina.
Black professor once targeted by Claudine

Gay had one word for her fall from grace: ‘Karma’ 16 replies
In a striking paradox, pro-meritocracy conservatives and pro-DEI Democrats alike can revel in the schadenfreude of Claudine Gay’s fall from grace—because her antics are just that ridiculous. In a since-deleted post to X, Ronald S. Sullivan Jr., a Harvard law professor, high-profile criminal defense attorney, and former college dean said Gay’s disgraced resignation was… “Karma.” You might recall the name from headlines a few years back—Sullivan once served as a faculty dean for Harvard’s Winthrop House, a position
from which he was ousted after he agreed to represent Harvey Weinstein, in large part, due to Gay’s influence. Here’s this, from political pundit Wesley Yang:
Iraqi officials on Thursday accused the U.S. of escalating tensions in Iraq after a U.S. airstrike in Baghdad killed the militia leader of an Iranian-backed group.
Iraq’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a “strong condemnation” of what it called a “blatant attack” on an Iraqi military headquarters. “The attack on a security formation linked to the commander-in-chief of the armed forces and subject to the authority of the state is a dangerous escalation,” the statement reads, “and we affirm that Iraq reserves its right to take a firm stance and all measures that deter anyone who tries to harm its territory and its security forces.”
Cops who used deadly force to assault non-violent demonstrators, “passive resistors,” on January 6, 2021, escalating the protest into a riot, broke the law in clear violation of the Metropolitan Police Department’s standard operating procedures.
Police indiscriminately fired sting balls and rubber bullets into the massive crowd, often aimed at their heads, scores of protesters were doused in the face with CS gas and were injured by shrapnel flying from the flash grenades. In countless instances uncovered in the CCTV and police body cam footage that Congress has yet to release, police are seen ruthlessly beating protesters with their nightsticks.
As the first documents of the ‘Epstein list’ are being read and digested by writers all over the world, some household names are popping up, like Former President Bill Clinton and his aide Doug Band, Britain’s Prince Andrew, former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, billionaires Glenn and Eva Dubin, magician David Copperfield and the late model scout Jean-Luc Brunel. Some of the names appearing are portrayed in a more tangential aspect, as it appears to be the case of former FBI director Louis Freeh.
President Trump’s attorneys on Thursday asked the Court to hold Special Counsel Jack Smith in contempt for violating Judge Chutkan’s order staying all proceedings in the January 6 case against Trump.
“President Donald J. Trump respectfully moves this Court for an order to show cause why prosecutors Jack Smith, Molly Gaston, and Thomas Windom (collectively, the “prosecutors”) should not be held in contempt for violating the Court’s order “stay[ing] any further proceedings that would move this case towards trial or impose additional burdens of litigation on Defendant.”

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday appealed a ruling by Maine’s Democratic secretary of state barring him from the ballot over his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol. He was expected to also ask the U.S. Supreme Court to rule on his eligibility to return to the presidency in a related Colorado case.
The Republican candidate appealed the Maine decision by Shenna Bellows, who became the first secretary of state in history to bar someone from running for the presidency under the rarely used Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. That provision prohibits those who “engaged in insurrection” from holding office.
Harvard University’s longtime provost will take over as interim president after Claudine Gay resigned Tuesday following weeks of backlash over her disastrous House testimony about on-campus antisemitism — and numerous accusations of plagiarism in her academic work. The Harvard Corporation confirmed that physician and economist Alan Garber will temporarily replace Gay while the school searches for a new leader. The organization said the search for a new leader will begin “in due course” and “will include broad engagement and consultation with the Harvard community in the time ahead.”
The fact that the hordes of new arrivals know all the loopholes and legal angles to scam our immigration laws and maximize benefits on our welfare system, while the working American does not, is really quite astounding, and tells me that there have to be a number of lawyers involved, telling these people what they can do to cheat American citizens out of a country. Check out this story, reported by the New York Post yesterday: Two New York City men staged armed robberies at convenience stores and fast food joints across the United States to scheme immigration benefits, federal prosecutors said Friday.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi just stunned viewers on national television by admitting that she thinks states should decide who’s allowed to run for president of the United States.
This would give states like California the ability to drop former President Trump from the ballot if she got her way. Many feel her actions aren’t about protecting “democracy” but about pure, unadulterated power.
Pelosi told CNN’s Dana Bash on Thursday that although “martyr” Donald Trump could be the beneficiary from the “raw politics” of being removed from state presidential ballots, it’s the “kitchen table issues” that are important to American voters.

Be the Funniest Anti-Israel Freakout You'll

We've seen a lot of anti-Israel freakouts at this point. I think it's safe to say these activists live in their own world, one that doesn't have a lot to do with reality. They think that everyone should bend the knee to them and accede to all their demands however unworkable or bad those demands might be. If they scream loud enough, they think they can succeed by bullying people.
We've seen things from the crazy or concerning to the dangerous.
But I have to say, this new video I just saw is pretty funny. Think anti-Israel Karen, and then you get where this video is going.
Joe Biden on Friday delivered yet another divisive and angry speech on ‘saving democracy’ near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
Dr. Jill had to escort Joe Biden on the stage.Biden attacked Trump and Trump supporters in his speech.“Whether democracy is still America’s sacred cause is what the 2024 election is all about,” angry Joe Biden shouted. “The choice is clear. Donald Trump’s campaign is about him, not America, not you. Donald Trump’s campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future.
Black Chicagoans are increasing their calls to “turn Chicago red” in the coming elections in response to the growing border crisis that has flooded their neighborhoods with illegal aliens at the behest of “welcoming” Mayor Brandon Johnson.
Windy City residents Cata Truss and Mark Carter appeared on Fox & Friends First on Jan. 5 with the vow to vote for Republicans in 2024 after the massive failure of Mayor Johnson and the Chicago City Council to deal with the influx of illegal immigrants.
“The Democratic Party has always neglected to pay attention to the Black community,” Truss told Fox News host Todd Piro. “That is traditional, and because we have been
Texas Governor Greg Abbott appears set for a huge victory on the border crisis, as President Joe Biden and Washington Democrats look likely to cave on Republican demands for a crackdown on migrants.
The Republican posted to X on Tuesday, announcing the success of his program to bus illegal migrants to Democrat-led cities.
He said his initiative has amounted to the transfer of nearly 100,000 migrants to cities such as New York, Boston, Denver, and Chicago - where leaders are being forced to find accommodation for them.Those Democrat-led areas bill themselves as 'sanctuary cities' that welcome migrants.
But the New York Times reported that their mayors are so perturbed

Computer Servers Stolen Hours Before Document Dump 23 replies
Epstein fixer Michael Sitrick told Los Angeles Magazine thieves broke into his Brentwood office over the New Year’s holiday and stole his computer servers just hours before a tranche of Epstein documents were unsealed and released to the public.
Judge Loretta Preska on Wednesday unsealed the first cache of documents from lawsuits related to Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse which potentially included names of over 150 people.
The first set of documents detailed Ghislaine Maxwell’s recruiting techniques, Prince Andrew’s abuse of the trafficked victims, and Bill Clinton’s fondness for “young” girls.
Presidential candidate Nikki Haley attempted to clean up her flubbed Civil War comments by mentioning she had 'black friends growing up' following backlash.
The 2024 hopeful faced a barrage of criticism and hate comments last month for answering a question at a New Hampshire town hall on what the Civil War was about without once mentioning slavery.
She has since walked back her response, saying 'of course' the war was about slavery and suggested that the question was poised by a Democrat 'plant' trying to get the media to attack her.

Within a minute after firing the fatal bullet that struck Ashli Babbitt on Jan. 6, 2021, U.S. Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd broadcast a radio report claiming shots were being fired at him in the Speaker’s Lobby and he was “prepared to fire back,” a federal lawsuit alleges.
The previously undisclosed radio dispatch is also contained on an audio recording obtained exclusively by The Epoch Times of the “OPS2” dispatch channel used by Capitol Police on Jan. 6.
Information on the recording is contained in a federal lawsuit filed on Jan. 5 by Ms. Babbitt’s widower,
CNN political commentator Paul Begala said Friday on CNN’s “The Lead” that he hoped the Supreme Court would let former President Donald Trump on all the state ballots.
The Supreme Court announced it would hear arguments on whether Trump’s name can appear on primary-election ballots in Maine and Colorado, citing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
Begala said, “I think in his heart of hearts, I hate to read Joe Biden’s heart, but he wants Trump on the ballot. He feels like I beat him once. I’ll beat him again. Um, but more than that, I think Scott is right. As a political matter, a politician. Trump is a political problem.

leader at NYC Baptist church over gender: suit 21 replies
A veteran pastor at Harlem’s Abyssinian Baptist Church was rejected in her bid to succeed longtime leader Rev. Calvin O. Butts III because the famed house of worship would “never hire a woman” for the job, she claims in a lawsuit.
Eboni Marshall Turman insisted she was the “strongest applicant” to replace Butts, who died of cancer in 2022 at age 73. (snip) Turman claims Grant grilled her “on topics that her male co-applicants were not asked,” and that Grant and another committee member said Abyssinian would have a female pastor “over [their] dead body,” according to the legal filing.
President Joe Biden kicked off his reelection campaign on Friday near Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, with recycled attack lines against Donald Trump that he had previously used in the 2020 presidential campaign. (Video) Biden claimed — as if it were a fact — that Trump had called fallen soldiers (Biden called them “dead soldiers”) “suckers” and “losers,” an unsubstantiated accusation by unnamed sources that was refuted at the time by more than a dozen people who went on the record, including some who opposed Trump.
The FBI is facing fresh calls to release hundreds of 'missing' pieces of evidence raided from Jeffrey Epstein's $51 million New York townhouse following the release of a new list of his associates.
Among the items said to be missing are tapes, CDs, passports and pictures all located inside a safe within the property during a siege on the home in July 2019, shortly after Epstein was arrested.
It comes as speculation continues to swirl that Epstein was working as an agent for Israeli intelligence agency Mossad prior to his suicide while awaiting trial for child sex offences.
