A Basic Reality Check

Posted on by

On Monday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about the experiences of someone who was not thrilled with the Trump presidency and decided to flee to Canada. It didn’t go as planned.

The article reports:

A self-proclaimed ‘scholar of the far right’ was blasted on social media after she ‘fled’ the United States to Canada.

Nope Brigade is an academic researcher who studies conservative and right-wing ideologies, and recently ‘fled’ from the current Trump administration to Vancouver – one of the world’s priciest cities.

Brigade posted a social media video begging for help after she and her family moved from Los Angeles, only to be hit with an even worse affordability crisis. 

‘For those who don’t know, the housing crisis here is way worse than the US,’ she said in the video.

‘I lived in LA for six years and I have not faced rent as bad as here.’

Brigade explained that she, her partner, and their pets moved to Vancouver on a visitor visa, which prevents them from working. 

They relocated with savings set aside, but are quickly burning through the funds and struggling to afford skyrocketing rent. 

‘In Canada, I think the cost of living crisis is worse here,’ she said.

…’Especially when you are shut out of the healthcare system and can’t access any of the resources that Canadians have access to.

‘And that’s understandable, I’m not a citizen of the country, but it is making the financial situation dire.’

Most visitor visas allow stays of up to six months, and work permits are only granted to those with a temporary resident permit valid for six months or longer, according to the Government of Canada. 

After bemoaning the situation, she asked for a place to stay, specifying that they wanted more than just a room – ideally for free or at below-market rates. 

Ms. Brigade posted a video on X asking for free housing because she can’t afford to live in Canada without a job. Here is the solution. Come to America as an illegal immigrant–you will get healthcare, food stamps, great housing and free money. (Oh, wait a minute–those things are on the chopping block–we are becoming more like Canada). Notice she kept talking about having to flee America. At any rate, she didn’t know how good she had it in America!

Reparations?

Posted on by

On December 30 (updated December 31), The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article a bill the Mayor quietly approved two days before Christmas. It’s a pretty safe bet that a lot of the residents of the city were not paying attention. At least I think that is what he was counting on.

The article reports:

The mayor of San Francisco discreetly approved a bill to create a fund that may eventually grant each of the city’s eligible black residents $5 million in reparations. 

Mayor Daniel Lurie quietly signed the incredibly divisive Reparations Bill just two days before Christmas. 

The ordinance establishes a reparations fund, as recommended by the city’s African American Reparations Advisory Committee (AARAC) in its 2023 report. 

…Per the 2023 report, every eligible African-American adult in San Francisco should be handed a $5 million lump sum to ‘compensate the affected population for the decades of harm that they have experienced.’ Approximately 50,000 black people live in San Francisco, and the qualifying requirements remain unclear.

While this effort has captured the most attention – and sparked the most controversy – the AARAC rattled off more than 100 suggestions, including debt relief, guaranteed annual income of $97,000, debt forgiveness and city-funded homes for black people. 

In 2023, the conservative public policy think-tank the Hoover Institution said the plan would cost each non-African American household in the city about $600,000 in tax dollars.

I can pretty much guarantee that no one in San Francisco has ever been a slave and that no one in San Francisco has ever been a slave owner. So in what world does this make sense?

Alexander Fraser Tytler stated:

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”

We are a republic–not a democracy, but the problem is the same.

The article at The U.K. Daily Mail concludes:

About a week before Lurie gave his go-ahead for the plan, the city’s Board of Supervisors voted in favor of it. 

‘This most certainly is different than asking the city to pony up dollars to support reparations recommendations,’ Supervisor Shamann Walton, who penned the ordinance, said, per ABC 7. 

‘It’s gonna take some time. We’ve got to build a pot and then, of course, come up with the right criteria in terms of how we’re going to prioritize what recommendations we address first. But this is a major first step.’ 

The bill’s supporters say it aims to correct disinvestment in predominantly black neighborhoods from the 1950s to the 1970s that drove the community out of the area under the guise of urban renewal. 

Looting the treasury is fun!

A Well Informed Citizenry…

Posted on by

Thomas Jefferson said, “A well informed citizenry is the best defense against tyranny.” (source here)

I am not sure we are currently meeting that criteria.

One of the major stories that finally got national attention this week was the rampant fraud in the Somali community in Minnesota. This is not a new story. The story finally went national due to a video posted on YouTube by Nick Shirley. How many other states that we have not heard about are also guilty of medicaid fraud or other fraud in government programs? I haven’t heard any real outrage from the major media.

In an article posted at Hot Air on Monday, Duane Patterson states:

Now I know what you’re saying. Media isn’t covering this new scandal. In fact, the Star-Tribune and Pioneer Press, the two papers of the Twin Cities, haven’t spent so much as a column inch on the story. The glorious thing about 2025, and a trend that shows it will accelerate going into 2026, is that people are not getting their news from old leftist media anymore. That 42-minute Nick Shirley video I showed you earlier? 90 million views in two days. 90 million! Not bad for a 23-year-old kid doing the unthinkable – reporting and journalism. 

Alphabet networks and Minnesota local stations will continue to ignore the story into oblivion, like they did with Powerline’s Medicaid fraud scandal. But the truth has this funny way of getting out. As white hot as the internet is with Nick Shirley’s reporting, Fox News jumped in over the weekend, and by the time they interviewed him about the Somali daycare scandal, another 10 million had seen his video on YouTube. 

What is happening in Minnesota is not an isolated incident. At what point will American voters become so disgusted with fraud that they will ‘throw the current bums out’ and elect a new set of bums?

How many college students who supported “Palestine” in campus protests actually knew what happened on October 7th or how the hostages taken were treated? How many young female American college students understand that rape was part of that day and part of the treatment of the hostages? Would they still support “Palestine” if they knew? On Monday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article that included the testimony of one of the Hamas hostages from October 7th. Where are the women protesting the idea that rape is a valid part of war?

We will not survive as a republic if people don’t begin to discover their own alternative sources of news rather than relying on the mainstream media.

Look At Actions–Not Words

Posted on by

On August 18th, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about President Obama’s Presidential Library.

The article reports:

President Barack Obama’s promise to build and revitalize blighted neighborhoods was a centerpiece of his first term in the White House.

But now, nearly nine years after he left the Oval Office, he might be destroying one critical area in the city he called home, the Daily Mail can reveal. 

His $850 million presidential center in Chicago – due to open in April – has come under fire from residents, community leaders and even onetime supporters who now warn that the massive 19.3-acre facility in Jackson Park is gentrifying the neighborhood, increasing rent and forcing families out. 

Alderwoman Jeanette Taylor, who represents much of the area where the center is being built, told the Daily Mail she is a fan of Obama and believes in the project but has fought aspects of it to protect her constituents. Her efforts have had mixed results.

The article continues:

‘We’re going to see small landlords having to raise the rent,’ warned Taylor. ‘Their property taxes are going up and we’re going to see development that is not inclusive to our community.’

Allison Davis of Aquinnah Investment Trust, who has close ties with Obama, plans to build a 26-story, 250-room luxury hotel just down the street from the center.

And Taylor said ‘$300,000 and $400,000 homes that nobody can afford’ are already popping up around the area on Chicago’s poverty-stricken South Side.

Taylor is not the only critic.

‘It looks like this big piece of rock that just landed here out of nowhere in what used to be a really nice landscape of trees and flowers,’ Ken Woodard, 39, an attorney and father of six who grew up in the area told Daily Mail. ‘It’s a monstrosity.

‘It’s over budget, it’s taking way too long to finish and it’s going to drive up prices and bring headaches and problems for everyone who lives here.
‘It feels like a washing away of the neighborhood and culture that used to be here.’

The article includes a picture of the library. I guess I just don’t understand modern architecture. According to the article, the library will eventually have an athletic center, gardens, a playground, a restaurant, a sledding hill, and a branch of the Chicago Public Library. I guess that’s nice, but I don’t think I would appreciate the amenities if I could no longer afford to live in the neighborhood.

Aren’t Regular Wasps Bad Enough?

Posted on by

On Thursday, The U.K. Daily Mail reported the following:

A South Carolina city has been left rattled after a radioactive wasp nest was discovered at a former nuclear weapons site, yet no trace of the actual wasps has been found. 

A new report from the US Department of Energy (DOE), released July 27, revealed that the nest was emitting radiation levels 10 times higher than what federal regulations allow. 

The alarming find was made on July 3 at the Savannah River Site (SRS) near Aiken, where employees conducting routine checks stumbled upon the contaminated nest perched on a post near tanks storing liquid nuclear waste. 

It is somewhat encouraging that no trace of actual wasps has been found.

The article notes:

Officials stressed there was no leak from the nearby waste tanks, saying they believe the nest became radioactive due to ‘onsite legacy contamination.’

Legacy contamination refers to leftover radioactive residue from the site’s bomb-making days during the Cold War.

‘The wasp nest was sprayed to kill wasps, then bagged as radiological waste. The ground and surrounded area did not have any contamination,’ the report said. 

A DOE spokesperson told NewsNation that if wasps had been present, they likely would have carried far less radiation than what was measured in the nest itself.

One can hope that the amount of radiation killed any wasps that were in the nest. However, I remember someone telling me that the only animal that would survive a worldwide nuclear war would be the cockroach. I wonder if wasps are as sturdy as cockroaches. I hope I never find out!

The article concludes:

‘Radiological Control personnel discovered a wasp nest in F Tank Farm at the Savannah River Site while performing routine radiological monitoring activities,’ according to a statement released by Savannah River Mission Completion. 

The F-Area Tank Farm where the nest was found holds 22 massive underground tanks, each up to 100 feet wide and 23 feet deep, packed with between 750,000 and 1.3 million gallons of radioactive waste. 

‘While no wasps were found on the nest, the individual insects would have significantly lower levels of contamination, Savannah River Mission Completion added.

The organization noted that ‘F Tank Farm is centrally located inside the 310-square-mile Savannah River Site. Generally, wasps travel only a few hundred yards from their nest.’

Officials admit the report on the wasp nest was delayed, citing the need to review past incidents involving contaminated wildlife and to meet strict federal reporting rules. 

‘No further action was required in the field. There is no impact from event on other activities and operations,’ the DOE stated in the report.

There is a real good science fiction movie in this if anyone wants to write the script!

It’s Not Easy Being Green

Posted on by

Theoretically, green energy is a great idea. Wind is free; the sun is free. However, the quest for practical, dependable green energy bears a resemblance to the quest for a perpetual motion machine. In theory, it’s a great idea. It practice, it needs work.

On Monday, The Gateway Pundit reported:

Around the world, the unreliability of the new power-generating technologies and the unwise rush towards ‘net-zero’ goals are leading the countries most invested in these ruinous policies into deep power supply troubles.

After blackouts in Spain, Portugal and parts of France two months ago, now it’s the ultra-liberal kingdom of the Netherlands that is reaping the electricity shortage that they sowed with their woke agenda.

It arose today that the Dutch are now rationing electricity.

The article quotes The U.K. Daily Mail:

“More than 11,900 businesses are stuck in a queue for access to the network, alongside public buildings including hospitals, schools and fire stations.”

The present crisis comes as the Dutch concentrate efforts ‘to cut carbon emissions’.

“After shutting down production at the massive Groningen gas field last year, the Dutch government has pushed a fast transition to electric heating, solar power and battery storage.”

The national grid did not grow to demand, creating widespread bottlenecks, and increasing costs.

“Officials estimate €200 billion will be needed by 2040 to expand grid capacity. Electricity prices are already among the highest in Western Europe, and Dutch households face yearly tariff increases of up to 4.7 percent for at least the next decade.”

The world runs on fossil fuel. It can run very efficiently on fossil fuel. In fact, if you look at what goes into the manufacturing of some of the green energy infrastructure, fossil fuel in many cases has a smaller carbon footprint and does less damage to the environment. However, in an effort to be trendy, many governments have pushed green energy. Now their citizens are paying the price.

I Have Many Questions…

Posted on by

On Thursday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about a drug bust on Nantucket Island. Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard are two islands off the coast of Massachusetts that are generally playgrounds for the rich and famous. See map below:

The article reports:

A suspected drug dealer caught up in Nantucket’s biggest ever coke bust has been defended by residents as ‘a person of high character working towards bettering himself.’ 

Locals came out in support of Francisco Fernandez Sanchez, 31, this week after police say they busted him with over 2.5 kg of cocaine alongside an array of drug paraphernalia and scales. 

Residents in the affluent town sent letters claiming Sanchez poses no threat to the community, despite prosecutors saying the seizure that led to his arrest was the largest cocaine bust in the history of Nantucket Island with an estimated street value over $257,000. 

I guess if you are selling drugs, you are at least financially bettering yourself. And he is here legally.

The article continues:

Ahead of a hearing on Tuesday to decide whether Sanchez would be released on bail as he prepares for trial, a number of his friends and family including residents of the liberal billionaires’ enclave submitted letters on his behalf, reports the Nantucket Current. 

The letters reportedly described Sanchez as a man of high character who was attempting to turn his life around. 

Sanchez’ attorney Patrick Callaghan also pleaded with the judge for his release, saying he was in the military in his native Dominican Republic before he moved to the US legally with a green card in 2018. 

Callaghan tried to claim his client was ‘not a danger to the community,’ despite the severity of the charges he faces.  

But Massachusetts Superior Court Judge Diane Freniere was not impressed with the arguments and interrupted Callaghan as he made his case with a blunt rebuttal. 

‘Cocaine kills people,’ she shot back at him – before setting Sanchez’s bail at $75,000 cash. 

Contrast this with the behavior of the people of Martha’s Vineyard when a group of illegal aliens showed up on their island in September 2022.

In September 2022, The U.K. Daily Mail reported:

  • The 50 migrants who were flown into the affluent island by Gov. Ron DeSantis are now being moved to a military base 32 miles away
  • It sparked a widespread cry of outrage from the liberal leaders of the small island in Massachusetts who branded the move ‘inhumane’ 
  • Gov. Charlie Baker announced the decision to transfer the illegal immigrants less than 48 hours after they touched down
  • DeSantis accused critics of his move to fly migrants to Martha’s Vineyard of ‘virtue signaling’, saying their concern for the welfare of the migrants was a ‘fraud’ 

One might wonder why a drug dealer would be so welcome on an exclusive island and a busload of innocent illegal aliens would not be welcome on a similar island nearby.

Misleading Headline Of The Week

Posted on by

On Tuesday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted the following headline:

Musk stunned as dozens of DOGE staff suddenly QUIT with scathing letter… as eye-watering new savings figure is revealed

That sounded a little strange to me, so I looked a little further. The DOGE staff members quitting were the ones originally hired by President Obama to clean up the Obamacare website fiasco. The young geniuses hired by Elon Musk are working hard.

The article reports:

DOGE workers are revolting against Elon Musk and Donald Trump by signing a dramatic resignation letter vowing not to defund ‘public services.’ 

‘We swore to serve the American people and uphold our oath to the Constitution across presidential administrations,’ 21 former DOGE staffers wrote in a letter first reported on by AP.

These ex-DOGE workers, who are not part of Musk’s personally hired nerd army, said that they refuse to ‘dismantle critical public services’ being slashed.

The article notes:

‘Several of these interviewers refused to identify themselves, asked questions about political loyalty, attempted to pit colleagues against each other, and demonstrated limited technical ability,’ the staffers revealed in their letter, seemingly slamming the DOGE workers who quizzed them as hostile.

‘This process created significant security risks,’ they wrote. 

But DOGE Spokeswoman Katie Miller posted on X that the workers who signed the letters ‘were full remote workers who hung Trans flags from their workplaces.’  

It sounds to me like these are exactly the kind of federal workers that need to find other jobs. Anyone who believes that the government cannot be seriously cut without serious damage to America is part of the problem–not part of the solution. There is a reason many of the richest counties in America are withing commuting distance to Washington, D.C.

This Makes My Blood Boil

On Thursday, Hot Air posted an article about Hamas’ release of the bodies of four hostages. The fact that Israel is backed into a corner and is releasing live terrorists for dead hostages is bad enough, but Hamas used to occasion as propaganda. It was disgusting.

The article quotes The U.K. Daily Mail:

Hamas has been condemned for parading the coffins of hostages in Gaza, with the United Nations rights chief saying the ‘abhorrent’ treatment of the October 7 attack victims ‘flies in the face of international law.’

Israelis are mourning the youngest hostages – baby Kfir Bibas and his four-year-old brother Ariel – as well as their mother Shiri and elderly captive Oded Lifshitz, whose bodies are believed to have been inside the caskets.

The four coffins were displayed to crowds in front of disturbing propaganda posters before being handed over to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) by armed Hamas fighters. 

I admire Israel’s restraint. If it were up to me, Gaza would be a radioactive parking lot by now.

The article at Hot Air includes multiple pictures of the transfer of the bodies of the hostages.

The article at Hot Air includes the following screenshot from X:

I agree.

UPDATE:

The woman’s body that was returned is not the mother of the two murdered children.

 

I’ve Heard Better Logic From Kindergartners

On Friday, I posted an article about some of the things the new austerity programs will be eliminating. I quoted an article posted in The U.K. Daily Mail on Wednesday. One of the spending cuts cited in The U.K. Daily Mail article was $50 million dollars worth of condoms for Gaza. Hamas filled those condoms with helium and used them to send incendiary devices into Israel. This was not a good use of our tax dollars; however, some of Congress is defending the spending.

On Friday, Front Page Magazine reported the following:

Sen. Chris Murphy (D – Tehran) doesn’t seem to have gotten the memo that the famine hoax has fallen apart and Hamas tossed it aside after the Biden – Witkoff deal allows it to claim victory.

But after the Trump administration froze the gravy train of aid, including $50 million in condoms for Gaza, Sen. Murphy tweeted that “It’s a lie. Made up. There was no U.S. funding for condoms in Gaza. What he stopped is programs to keep malnourished babies alive in Gaza. Aid groups say infants will start to die next week.”

Everyone knows the perpetually malnourished infants in Gaza can’t live without condoms. That then get turned into bombs.

…In fact the government’s own website shows $45 million being sent to the UNFPA to “SUPPORT SEXUAL AND REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH (SRH) CARE CLOSE TO THE DISPLACED POPULATIONS” under the State Department’s BUREAU OF POPULATION, REFUGEES AND MIGRATION. The UNFPA is the United Nations Population Fund which acts as the United Nations sexual and reproductive health agency.

None of this has anything to do with ‘malnourished babies’.

Not only are we actually arming an enemy of one of our allies, we are wasting money on something the recipients really don’t care about. One of the things that Muslim men do is marry more than one woman to have multiple children by multiple wives. They plan on conquering the world by sheer numbers if nothing else. Sending them condoms is just dumb.

Let The Austerity Begin

On Tuesday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about some of the spending cuts President Trump is focused on. America has been wasting money on some totally ridiculous things.

The article reports:

Joe Biden‘s use of U.S. taxpayer money to fund transgender operas in Colombia and transgender comic books in Peru will be totally undone by Trump, a top Republican told DailyMail.com. 

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Brian Mast (R-Fla.) has a laundry list of Biden-era State Department programs that are on the chopping block now that Trump is in the White House.

After a bombshell report came out this week unveiling how Biden’s State Department doled out $15 million worth of taxpayer funds to buy contraceptives like condoms for the Taliban, DailyMail.com asked Mast what other eye-popping programs exist.

The article concludes:

The $15 million for contraceptives destined for the Taliban was a part of a larger $100 million aid package bound for Afghanistan, the Washington Free Beacon first reported.

The United States Department of International Aid (USAID) used the millions to ‘procure contraceptives,’ like ‘oral contraceptives and condoms,’ according to records of the transaction. 

The Taliban outlawed contraceptives in Afghanistan after taking over the country following the 2021 U.S. military withdrawal from the country. 

Other costly diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives of the State Department have also been scrapped. 

Secretary of State Marco Rubio sent out an internal memo to his staff after being sworn in last week warning against programs that don’t spend money on the department’s core mission.

‘Every dollar we spend, every program we fund, and every policy we pursue must be justified with the answer to three simple questions,’ his memo stated, adding only initiatives that ‘make America safer, stronger, and more prosperous’ are appropriate.

‘Certain priorities will be replaced, certain issues deemphasized, and some practices we will cease altogether,’ his statement continued. 

Please follow the link to the article for further details. There is no way the American taxpayer should be funding these things.

Your Family History Does NOT Determine Your Future

Posted on by

On Saturday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about Kai Höss, the grandson of Rudolf Höss, commandant of Auschwitz. Kai Höss is now a pastor, who speaks to groups about the horrors of that camp.

The article reports:

Just the other day, a local technical college near Stuttgart, Germany, rang Kai Höss with alarming news. Someone had been etching swastikas on the doors of the loos. 

This followed a number of student protests against Israeli operations in Gaza. Might Kai give a talk to the students?

He did not hesitate. Days later he was addressing a packed assembly, reading a first-hand account of scenes from the death camp at Auschwitz.

Of two small boys, newly arrived off a cattle truck and so engrossed in a game of tag that they failed to heed the command to follow the rest into the gas chamber until the commandant ordered two guards to pick them up and throw them inside.

Of a frantic mother trying to wedge the doors open and force her children out, screaming: ‘Why don’t you at least let my precious children live?’

‘People were in tears – including me,’ Kai tells me. ‘And so they should be. If this stuff doesn’t get you from here to here [he points from his head to his heart], then it hasn’t sunk in. It’s just another history lesson.’

The college has asked him to come back and give the same talk to those who could not be accommodated last time.

He is happy to oblige. Germany never takes the appearance of swastikas lightly, of course. But Kai speaks with a unique authority. The author of those accounts was not some terrified witness. He was Kai’s grandfather Rudolf Höss, commandant of Auschwitz and one of the most brutal criminals of the Second World War.

…Tracked down by the British after the conflict, he laid it all out in the chillingly clinical memoir he wrote as he awaited his date with the gallows in April 1947.

‘No one wants to be Rudolf Höss’s grandson,’ Kai, 62, tells me over a cup of tea at his home near Stuttgart. ‘Every day I must face the fact that I am descended from the worst mass-murderer in history.’

While some might want to put as much distance as possible between themselves and such a dark family past, Kai takes the opposite view.

A hotel manager turned evang-elical pastor, this father-of-four wants to ensure future generations never forget the horrors committed by his grandfather’s generation. In particular he wants to do what he can to stem the Gaza-fuelled rising tide of anti-Semitism in Western democracies.

He is determined to debunk any attempts to use moral relativism to compare Israel to the Nazis, let alone accuse the Jewish state of ‘genocide’ and thereby demand the dismantling of Israel.

‘You hear those demonstrators shouting ‘from the river to the sea’, but they don’t even know which river – or which sea,’ he says, shaking his head.

‘There’s all this emotional energy but they don’t understand what it’s really about. Hamas’s strategy was to bring Israel to the point where they get mad and hit hard so the world rises against Israel.

Please follow the link to read the entire article. This is a man who knows what he is talking about.

How You Handle Baseless Accusations

Posted on by

The conspiracy theorists are everywhere–on both sides of the political spectrum. (Actually, I should have said the current political spectrum. Our Founding Fathers had a much more realistic political spectrum–the put anarchy at one end and tyranny at the other end. Their goal was to create a government somewhere near the middle.) Some of the conspiracies (on both sides) are just ridiculous. Be careful what colors you wear.

On Friday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about reporter Adam Satariano’s request to Tucker Carlson regarding the Proud Boys.

The article reports:

In a post on X, political commentator and media personality Tucker Carlson revealed a request he received from reporter Adam Satariano, who prefaced that he was writing a story about how groups affiliated with the Proud Boys use the chat app Telegram to communicate. 

The inquiry read: ‘In some Telegram posts from chapters of the Proud Boys, they discuss Mr. Carlson wearing black and gold colors at the recent MSG rally for former President Trump in New York.

The article includes Tucker Carlson’s reply:

He responded facetiously: ‘Yes, this is an official Proud Boys necktie. I received it at my Proud Boys initiation several years ago, after swearing a blood oath to the global fascist revolution and the sacred principles of Q Anon.

‘As you can imagine, I wouldn’t normally admit this. The rules of secret societies being what they are, anything related to dress code is supposed to be confidential. But in this case, I’ve been outfoxed by your relentless shoe-leather journalism.

‘Darn you, New York Times. You win again.’

The article concludes:

Adam Satariano, who prefaced that he was writing a story about how groups affiliated with the Proud Boys use the chat app Telegram to communicate.DJT, the operator of Trump’s Truth Social platform, was worth $9.5 billion by Monday’s close – the same as Elon Musk’s X, formerly known as Twitter.

The stock is up by 236 percent this month – on pace for its best month since October 2021. It was trading for over $54 at noon on Tuesday.

However, trading was suspended several times on Tuesday over the stock’s extraordinary volatility.

I just hope that after the election the ‘silly season’ ends.

About That Third ‘Assassination Attempt’

Posted on by

On Sunday, the mainstream media reported that there had been a third assassination attempt on President Trump in California. Details were sketchy, but the incident was reported. Now it seems as if the incident was not necessarily what it appeared to be. There are still a lot of questions, but I will share the information I have. My sources are The New York Post, The U.K. Daily Mail, and Twitchy.

Twitchy quotes a Twitter post by Mindy Robinson:

The man they just arrested for supposedly ‘trying to kill’ Trump in Coachella….is my good friend and business partner for America Happens, Vem Miller.

Vem had just exposed a huge Deep State cover-up involving the Feds and the Bundy Ranch scandal. So I firmly believe this is 100% some kind of set-up in retribution for exposing it. That, or Trump’s security team is a bunch of dipshits trying to make up for how badly they failed in Pennsylvania with any kind of ‘win’ they can get, fake or not.

There isn’t a universe his intention was to kill Trump, he’s worked too hard in this movement to expose the Deep State and all the people against him. If he had guns in his car that were illegal, whooptie-f***ing do. As a pro-2A advocate, ask me if I give a s—t about a good guy with a gun in an unsafe s***hole like California. It doesn’t even make sense why his passes would be fake either when we’re both usually invited as media to these things.

And I’d love to see exactly what this ‘threat’ was he made about Trump…..because I don’t believe he said it. I just know it’s going to be the most misconstrued b——t thing ever when I finally hear, assuming they even ever tell us. 

This is the anti-Deep State documentary we did that they’re probably targeting him for, where we actually suspected they killed our whistleblower over it….it’s that damning to this illegitimate government: https://rumble.com/v5e9k6a-bundy-vs.-deep-state-an-original-america-happens-documentary.html

We were also working on a sequel to my Las Vegas shooting cover-up doc as well, which might be another reason why someone would target him for this….. https://rumble.com/v266as0-conspiracy-truths-the-route-91-documentary.html

The U.K. Daily Mail reports:

Miller was taken into custody after he was stopped at a checkpoint near the former president’s rally in Coachella, California on Saturday just before 5 p.m. local time.

He allegedly presented fake VIP credentials and was found to be illegally in possession of a shotgun, a loaded handgun and a high-capacity magazine in his vehicle.

Local law enforcement claimed the incident is ‘probably’ a third assassination attempt – after Trump was shot in the ear in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July, and an armed suspect plotted to kill him at his West Palm Beach, Florida, golf club in September.

But a source close to Trump campaign downplayed the threat and told DailyMaill.com that the gunman was apprehended before posing any danger. 

The New York Post reports:

He said he told deputies he was carrying the firearms in his trunk — as a courtesy — before he was pulled over and forced to leave the car. The car was then “ransacked” after a deputy informed him he wanted to make sure the guns were legal purchases, he claimed.

Miller, a registered Republican who ran unsuccessfully for office in Nevada in 2022, also denied he flashed a fake press pass at the checkpoint — as the sheriff alleged — but instead offered a “special entry pass,” the outlet reported.

The Las Vegas resident told the publication he was not informed why he was taken into custody, and only after he was detained for hours was he allowed to call a lawyer. He said he then recalled the incident while in front of FBI and Secret Service agents, who reportedly wanted to interview him.

Stay tuned. I suspect the alternative media will eventually expose the truth of this episode.

This Was Inevitable

Posted on by

On Tuesday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article explaining how Chipotle is dealing with the new minimum wage requirements for fast-food establishments in California. This is not surprising and should give legislators in all states a reason to pause before changing the minimum wage laws.

The article reports:

Chipotle has introduced two robots that can take over tasks normally done by its workers. 

The ‘autocado’ can peel, stone and cut an avocado for guacamole in 26 seconds. Meanwhile, a ‘digital makeline’ portions up salads and bowls based on orders on the app.

The machines are part of an automation drive that Chipotle bosses hope will cut down the number of workers needed – slashing rising labor costs. 

So, it is no surprise they are being put to use first in two of the Mexican chain’s restaurants in California, the company announced on Monday. 

Recent legislation raised the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20-an-hour in the state. 

The controversial wage hike – $4 more than the minimum wage in the state for any other job – was introduced by California Governor Gavin Newsom at chains with more than 60 locations in the US, and came into effect on April 1.

Chains including Burger King have already ramped up the roll out of digital ordering kiosks to cut the number of cashiers needed in Californian restaurants.  

It is not yet clear how the production costs of using Chipotle’s new machines compares to human labor when making Chipotle menu items. 

Also, robots don’t call in sick or require vacations or sick days.

The article concludes:

Chipotle’s sales this year beat Wall Street expectations – boosted by price hikes and a jump in loyal customers. 

But the company has come under fire for its reported varying portion sizes. 

It prompted Chipotle’s then CEO Brian Nicol – who has now moved to Starbucks – to deny that he had instructed staff to scrimp with servings as he revealed the company will be instituting changes to ensure satisfaction.

He revealed Chipotle will be retraining its staff to ensure ‘generous portions’ are consistent across its more than 3,500 stores.

Last month, Wells Fargo analyst Zachary Fadem and his team tested the theory that Chipotle has been skimping on its usually-large portions, after a series of videos posted to TikTok showed employees barely filling their burrito bowls.

The team ordered and weighed 75 bowls – all with the same ingredients –  from eight locations across New York City.

They discovered that the consistency of the burrito bowls varied widely from restaurant to restaurant. Some locations served bowls that weighed up to 33 percent more than others, the study found. 

Even without the minimum wage hikes, fast food is another victim of Bidenomics.

 

Neglecting Our Own. Why?

Posted on by

On Friday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about a taxpayer-funded scheme that grants benefits to illegal aliens but not to American citizens.

The article reports:

Oregonians have reacted angrily to a taxpayer-funded scheme that doles out $30,000 for non-legal migrants to buy homes, but excludes US citizens.

Hacienda Community Development Corporation, a Latino-led group in Portland, says in a promotion that it will give first-time home buyers up to $30,000 to get on the property ladder.

The scheme is ‘only for people who are not American citizens.’

It is instead open to refugees, asylum seekers, Green Card holders, and those who arrived in the US illegally as children, the post says.

It should be noted that Oregon has a Democratic trifecta and a Democratic triplex. The Democratic Party controls the offices of governor, secretary of state, attorney general, and both chambers of the state legislature. So the Democrats have seen the value of home ownership. It’s a shame that they are not willing to share that value with American citizens. At the same time the Democrats in Oregon are offering money to illegal aliens, their party on the national level is discussing a tax on ‘unrealized capital gains’ which if applied to homes would force most Americans to sell their homes. Since home ownership is one source of generational wealth, the contrast between how the illegal aliens are being treated and the potential for taxing Americans into poverty is interesting.

The article concludes:

Since October 2021, over 10 million migrants have crossed into the US, according to federal statistics — straining the federal agencies that handle migrants and bringing border communities, like El Paso, Texas, to its knees.

Since January, the Mexican government has stepped up efforts to stop mostly South and Central American migrants traveling through its country on their way to the US.

Pressured by the Biden Administration, Mexican officials have set up checkpoints to find migrants on northbound buses and trains and return them to the Mexico-Guatemala international boundary.

In June, the White House announced changes how migrants could seek asylum at the border.

Any migrant who did not legally enter the US would be removed and not allowed to seek asylum.

It’s an election year. Expect to see at least cosmetic changes to the current border policy.

A College That Has Changed Its Priorities

Posted on by

On May 13th, The U.K. Daily Mail reported that the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has ended its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion program..

The article reports:

UNC Chapel Hill’s Board of Trustees voted Monday to cut funding for diversity programs in next year’s budget – and approved a change that would divert $2.3 million toward public safety and policing.

The vote to shift more funding to public safety comes as continued pro-Palestinian protests on UNC’s campus have resulted in several arrests in recent weeks. 

The campus made national headlines after members of the Pi Kappa Phi fraternity took it upon themselves to shield the US flag after protesters replaced it with the Palestinian flag.

The budget committee vice-chair Marty Kotis said law enforcement has already been forced to react to protests, but they need more funding to keep the university ‘safe from a larger threat.’ 

‘It’s important to consider the needs of all 30,000 students, not just the 100 or so that may want to disrupt the university’s operations,’ Kotis said. 

‘It takes away resources for others.’

Budget chair Dave Boliek said the decision gives the university an ‘opportunity to lead on this’ and get ahead of the vote by the University of North Carolina Board of Governors’ on its diversity policy.

Last month, the statewide board’s Committee on University Governance voted to reverse and replace its DEI policy for 17 schools across the state. 

The change would alter a 2019 diversity, equity and inclusion regulation that defines the roles of various DEI positions — and it would appear to eliminate those jobs if the policy is removed.

Dave Boliek is currently running for State Auditor in North Carolina.

The article concludes:

Republican lawmakers in about two dozen states have filed bills seeking to restrict DEI initiatives this year. They are countered by Democrats who have sponsored supportive DEI measures in about 20 states. 

Altogether, lawmakers have proposed about 150 bills this year that would either restrict or promote DEI efforts, according to an Associated Press analysis.

It appears that DEI has done more to divide us than to bring us together.

 

You Don’t Have To Invade A Country To Destroy It

Posted on by

There are two major problems caused by our currently porous southern border–how to care for all of the people entering America illegally and the wreckage caused by the drugs coming across the border. The havoc caused by those drugs is often overlooked, but it has impacted a lot of families in America.

On Wednesday, The U.K. Daily Mail reported the following:

  • Beijing fuels America’s fentanyl crisis by subsidizing manufacture of drugs 
  • China’s leaders even tip off dodgy firms being investigated by US agencies 

The article notes:

China‘s leaders give tax breaks to companies that produce fentanyl chemicals and cause some 80,000 US overdose deaths each year, a damning House report warns.

Beijing is fueling America’s fentanyl crisis by subsidizing the manufacture of materials used by traffickers to make pills outside the country, say papers from a committee on China.

Researchers accessed a government website that revealed tax rebates for the production of specific fentanyl precursors and other synthetics — as long as those companies sell them outside of China.

‘Through its actions, as our report has revealed, the Chinese Communist Party is telling us that it wants more fentanyl entering our country,’ said Rep Mike Gallagher, the Republican chairman of the special House committee.

Admittedly, this wouldn’t be an issue if there were not a market for the drugs, but this is a major problem for America both now and in the future.

The article concludes:

The groundwork for the US fentanyl epidemic was laid more than 20 years ago, with aggressive over-prescribing of the synthetic opioid oxycodone.

As US authorities clamped down on its prescription, users moved to heroin, which the Sinaloa cartel happily supplied.

But making its own fentanyl — far more potent and versatile than heroin — in small, easily concealed labs was a game changer.

The cartel went from its first makeshift fentanyl lab to a network of labs concentrated in the northern state of Sinaloa in less than a decade.

A single cartel ‘cook’ can press fentanyl into 100,000 counterfeit pills every day to fool Americans into thinking they’re taking Xanax, Percocet or oxycodone.

The pills are smuggled over the border to supply drug addicts across the US, including the homeless users seen stumbling around on the streets of San Francisco, New York and other big cities.

Fentanyl is so cheap to make that the cartel reaps massive profits even wholesaling the drug at 50 cents per pill, investigators say.

The drug’s potency makes it particularly dangerous.

The narcotic dose of fentanyl is so close to the lethal dose that a pill meant to ensure a high for a habituated user can easily kill a less experienced person taking something they didn’t know was fentanyl.

How many families have to be impacted by this drug before we seal our southern border?

The ‘Chamberlain Approach’ Has Never Worked

Posted on by

Those of us who grew up before the age of ‘reconciliation’ with bullies know how to deal with bullies–you beat them up severely and they never bother you again. Unfortunately, America’s leaders forgot that principle shortly after World War II. Now, because they have forgotten that principle, they are on the verge of starting World War III. Neville Chamberlain was the Prime Minister of England from May 28, 1937, to May 10, 1940. In the Munich Agreement of September 30, 1938, he and Premier Édouard Daladier of France granted almost all of Hitler’s demand that Czechoslovakia cede the Sudetenland to Germany. That agreement left Czechoslovakia defenseless.  Neville Chamberlain returned to England after signing the Munich Agreement a popular hero, speaking of “peace with honour” (echoing an earlier prime minister, Benjamin Disraeli) and “peace for our time.” His intentions were good–he wanted to prevent war. However, it didn’t turn out well. Hitler invaded Czechoslovakia on March 15, 1939.

On April 14th, The U.K. Daily Mail reported the following:

  • President Biden has made it clear to Benjamin Netanyahu that US forces will not join offensive operations against Iran, according to reports 
  • The comments were made by Biden during a phone call between the two leaders after Iran unleashed a drone and missile attack on Israel 
  • Biden released a statement following the call between the two leaders saying it had reaffirmed America’s ‘ironclad commitment to the security of Israel’ 

How can America have an ‘ironclad commitment to the security of Israel’ if we tell them not to attack the people who are attacking them?

The following was also noted at The Gateway Pundit on April 13th:

Tonight, as Iran launches attacks on Israel, it is important to remember that exactly one month ago the Biden administration granted new sanctions relief to Iran that gave the country access to billions.

The move was criticized by Republicans and downplayed by Democrats and the liberal media.

It’s just another reminder that Biden has a habit of making the exact wrong decision on foreign policy every single time.

It is very possible that America paid for the drones used against Israel.

The Need To Protect The Health Of Americans

Posted on by

On Thursday, The U.K. Daily Mail reported that there have been multiple cases of tuberculosis at the migrant shelters in Chicago.

The article reports:

  • The Chicago Department of Public Health said ‘a small number of cases’ were reported ‘in a few different shelters’ around the city.
  • Health officials confirmed a fifth of Latin American arrivals carry TB, but it usually latent, not contagious, and asymptomatic.
  • The TB cases come after 55 measles cases were detected in the city, the majority originating from the Pilsen migrant shelter

The article notes:

‘TB is not a novel or rarely seen illness in Chicago, as the Chicago Department of Public Health typically expects to see between 100-150 cases of tuberculosis in Chicago residents in an average year,’ a statement from CDPH statement reads. 

‘We will continue to offer treatment to individuals as necessary and take the proper precautions to eliminate spread, but we do not consider this a matter presenting a substantial threat to the public.’ 

According to CDPH, between 10 percent and 20 percent of people living in Central and South America have latent tuberculosis (TB), an infection that is asymptomatic and not spread to other people. However, you will still test positive for TB even if you are not exhibiting symptoms.

‘Not everyone who acquires TB will develop an active infection. A percentage or folks will actually develop what we call a latent infection. But that latent TB can then reactivate to become active TB at some point in the future,’ said Hazra. 

‘They can still receive anti-TB therapy to make sure that latent infection is fully eradicated.’

In the past, America had controlled, legal immigration. People wanting to come into America went through health screening and had to prove they could support themselves or had people who would sponsor them. What is happening now is not healthy for the country in any way.

A Permanent Solution To A Temporary Problem

Posted on by

Transgenderism is the current fad sweeping the world. It has greatly impacted children and young adults in America and in other countries. Some parents have gone along with or even encouraged their children to undergo medical procedures or drug regimens that will impact them for the rest of their lives. Some of the changes that are made are irreversible and result in the children involved not being able to bear children or father children as adults. Unfortunately, an eleven-year-old child may not be equipped to make such a life-changing decision, and the decision may cause a lot of sorrow down the road. Yesterday (updated today), The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about a recent study in the Netherlands about transgenderism in children and young adults.

The article reports:

The majority of gender-confused children grow out of that feeling by the time they are fully grown adults, according to a long-term study.

Researchers in the Netherlands tracked more than 2,700 children from age 11 to their mid-twenties, asking them every three years of feelings about their gender.

Results showed at the start of the research, around one-in-10 children (11 percent) expressed ‘gender non-contentedness‘ to varying degrees.

But by age 25, just one-in-25 (4 percent) said they ‘often’ or ‘sometimes’ were discontent with their gender.

The researchers concluded: ‘The results of the current study might help adolescents to realize that it is normal to have some doubts about one’s identity and one’s gender identity during this age period and that this is also relatively common.’

The article includes the following chart:

If you have a child starting down this road, please reconsider the long-term effects of any medical actions you might take.

The article also includes the following chart:

The article concludes:

Dr Jay Richards, director of the Richard and Helen DeVos Center for Life, Religion, and Family, told DailyMail.com: ‘We’ve known for over a decade that most kids who experience distress with their sexed bodies resolve those feelings after they pass through natural puberty. 

‘Indeed, we can infer from the DSM 5 [2013] and other sources that as many as 88 percent of gender-dysphoric girls and as many as 98 percent of gender-dysphoric boys in previous generations desisted if allowed to go through natural puberty. 

‘These two facts make it clear why “gender-affirming care” on minors is such an outrage. It leads, in the end, to sterilization and in many cases to a complete loss of natural sexual function. 

‘There is no good evidence that this helps minors long term. Moreover, it medicalizes what could very well be temporary psychological symptoms.

‘History will judge this medicalized “gender-affirming care” on minors as we now judge eugenics and lobotomies.’

The research was published in the journal Archives of Sexual Behavior. 

How will the children whose bodies have been surgically altered feel when they mature and realize the mistake they have made?

Misplaced Priorities

Posted on by

On Monday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about plans to turn the  the former Chelsea Soldiers’ Home facility into a migrant shelter. The building has been vacant and scheduled for demolition, but the state now plans to re-open it beginning May 1.

The article reports:

Democrat Governor Maura Healey revealed the government will turn the former Chelsea Soldiers’ Home facility, which is vacant and scheduled for demolition, into a safety-net site in April.

It will be able to accommodate 100 families who are eligible for the state’s Emergency Assistance family shelter system, which has been operating at capacity for months. 

Residents of the Bay State, however, are furious that the former veteran housing facility is being turned into migrant shelter when on a single night in 2023 there were 545 veterans experiencing homelessness in Massachusetts, according to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Local Dick McGrath said on Facebook: ‘Is it me, or is there something wrong with putting migrants in the Chelsea Soldiers Home instead of homeless veterans?’

The article also notes:

Mike Junior said: ‘They were supposed to tear that building down but let’s put migrants in there, not our own soldiers, not our own people, not the ones who FOUGHT for OUR FREEDOM.’

Blake Habyan said on Twitter: ‘Illegals are being prioritized over American citizens. Who will they take away from next?’

Secretary of Veterans Services Dr. Jon Santiago insisted transforming the site will not affect services for veterans. 

Massachusetts has proven that we can take care of veterans and families experiencing homelessness in our state,’ said Santiago.

‘While EOVS formerly operated the building slated for demolition, this project operates independently and will not impact the daily routines or services at the Massachusetts Veterans Home at Chelsea.’

Wait a minute. How can transforming the site not impact services for veterans? If there are more than 500 homeless veterans in Massachusetts on one night, why isn’t the building being put to use for them? It will impact the daily routines or services at the Massachusetts Veterans Home at Chelsea because the migrants are not vetted in any way and there will be safety concerns.

Is There An Ulterior Motive Here?

On Tuesday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about some recent statements by Hillary Clinton. I would like to make a few observations about Ms. Clinton and those statements. Ms. Clinton has been out of the spotlight for a while. Her popularity rises when she is out of the spotlight. Are we looking at Ms. Clinton on the comeback trail?

The article notes:

  • Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, 76, said President Joe Biden, 81, and former President Donald Trump, 77, are both ‘old’
  • Despite Biden’s age, Clinton said voters should still support him, as Trump poses a threat to democracy
  • Her comments come as polls find voters are upset with the ages of both party’s presidential frontrunners 

I wish the people who keep talking about ‘threats to democracy’ would acknowledge that we are not a democracy.

The article notes:

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton admitted President Joe Biden, 81, is ‘old’ Tuesday, adding Americans need to ‘accept the reality’ of his age and vote for him to save democracy from Donald Trump. 

Clinton’s jab at Joe’s age came during a radio segment with host Zerlina Maxwell.

She told Maxwell about a recent conversation she had about the president’s age. 

‘Somebody the other day said to me … ‘Well, but, you know, Joe Biden’s old.’ I said, ‘You know what, Joe Biden is old. Let’s go ahead and accept the reality. Joe Biden is old,’ Clinton, 76, said. 

‘So we have a contest between one candidate who’s old but who’s done an effective job and doesn’t threaten our democracy,’ she continued. ‘And we have another candidate who is old, barely makes sense when he talks, is dangerous, and threatens our democracy.’

She was referring to former President Donald Trump, who is just one year older than her at 77. 

Pay attention. This is a search for relevancy from someone who has been irrelevant for a while. This could get very interesting.

What Are They Thinking?

On Friday, The U.K. Daily Mail posted an article about a planned apartment complex in Brunswick, Maine.

The article reports:

Residents of a Maine town have hit out at the $13million construction of a complex of 60 apartments for asylum seekers, where they can live rent free for two years then pay a fraction of the rental price. 

Locals in Brunswick have expressed fury over the project, which is being funded by a mix of private and public money and which has been heavily criticized by Donald Trump Jr. 

The apartment complex in Brunswick is one of the many projects being launched by the town in what critics have labeled a ‘Taj Mahal’, red-carpet welcome for asylum seekers.  

There are currently 180 apartments in the Brunswick Landing complex available for anyone to rent. A one bedroom unit costs $1,800 a month, while a two-bedroom costs $2,300 a month. 

The new buildings for asylum seekers will allow residents to live rent-free for up to two years while they obtain work permits. 

Then, if they obtain a job that pays half of the average local salary of $60,000, they will only have to pay a third of the rental price. It boils down to a monthly cost of around $500 for a one bedroom, and $690 for a two bedroom. 

The article continues:

“Up in this part of the world, and up in Maine, they are giving illegal immigrants free housing — multi-million dollar free housing, while they’re kicking out veterans in the street,’ he said in a news clip shared by the conservative Maine Wire. ‘I mean, what’s going on?’ 

Maine has a population of around 1.3 million people and has recently struggled to deal with a rise in migrants. In Portland, city officials said they received more than 1,600 asylum seekers last year.

But for the 23 families who have already moved into the complex, the facilities are a lifeline. 

Among those benefitting is a woman from Nigeria named Esther, who described the accommodation as ‘life changing’.

She moved into the complex after being moved between hotels and shelters.

‘In [a] hotel, there are rules and regulations,’ Esther told News Center Maine. ‘In a shelter too, we have so many people. We share the kitchen together. We share the restroom together.’ 

Scott Thistle, a spokesperson for MaineHousing, told FOX23 that fewer than  percent of the $1.24 billion the agency has allocated in the last two years was for asylum seeker-specific housing.

Let’s take care of our veterans and Americans struggling with finances first.

The Important Story

Posted on by

The list of Epstein Island visitors is important. I suspect there is also video evidence to back up the claims made by the trafficking victims, but as long as Ghislaine Maxwell is safely ensconced in her Florida Country Club prison, those videos will never see the light of day. However, there is a more important story that is being overshadowed by the focus of Epstein’s list of frequent guests and visitors.

On Wednesday, The U.K. Daily Mail reported the following:

  • Investigators believe a network of high-end brothels operating in the Boston and D.C. areas was a honey trap to ensnare politicians and government officials 
  • But whether the plot was intended to aid Russia, China, South Korea – or even Israel – remains to be determined 
  • Clients, believed to include members of Congress, military officers, and national security contractors, have not yet been unmasked and charged 

How many of our high-level ‘public servants’ were being controlled by people who intend to do us harm?

The article reports:

The brothels were raided in November and prosecutors said they were looking to charge 28 people in Massachusetts alone.

…Han Lee, the alleged mastermind, Junmyung Lee, 30, and James Lee, 68 – all South Korean-born U.S. nationals – were charged in November with running the sex ring. The three Lees are not related.

Han and Junmyung both live in the Boston area so the locations of four of the brothels there made sense. James lives in Torrance, a suburb of Los Angeles.

Members of Congress, military officers, and national security contractors who ‘possessed security clearances’ were among the steady customers at the ‘high-end brothels’ run by the ring, prosecutors say. 

The ring’s clients, who paid rates of up to $600 an hour, included corporate executives, professors, lawyers, and scientists.

…The probe into ‘their involvement in prostitution is active and ongoing,’ Department of Homeland Security Special Agent Zachary Mitlitsky said in a court affidavit.

A spokeswoman for the US Attorney’s Office in Boston, which is prosecuting the case, cited the same reason in declining to comment on questions about the prostitution ring, including whether the suspects had ties to foreign intelligence.

Experts interviewed by DailyMail.com suspect the brothel scheme was a honeypot. 

The twin locations where ring operators selected to set up shop is the first clue, a number of them said.

As the country’s political headquarters, Washington presents a target-rich environment for spies.

In the affidavit, investigators identified six ‘target locations’ where the brothels were based, four in the Boston area (‘Target Locations 4-7’) and two in Virginia (‘Target locations 8 and 9). 

The names on this list of clients are the ones we want to see because of the national security implications.
