Oh, hold the falafel and pass the tinfoil, President Trump just upgraded the White House to a deluxe jihadi spa day for Ahmed al-Sharaa—former Al-Qaeda rockstar who insists he “had nothing to do” with 9/11, as if that’s the only résumé line that matters. They skipped the whole “terrorist greatest hits” convo; too busy delisting him from the no-fly list faster than a CIA black site vanishes evidence.

This, comrades, is the exact five-alarm cuddle-fest you demonstrably Moslem-loving Trump voters were drooling for when you scribbled his name in November—because nothing says “God, guns, and glory” like importing an ex-Al-Qaeda influencer for Oval Office selfies.

(And sure, if you’re one of those “9/11 was an inside job / Mossad did it” truthers, nobody’s here to burst your bubble—knock yourselves out. But Al-Qaeda did still blow up the USS Cole, murdered 224 in the African embassy bombings, and kept the body count rolling in places like Bali and Madrid. Just, y’know, facts for the non-voters still pretending terrorism has a brand loyalty.)

I didn’t vote for anybody in the 2016, 2020, or 2024 U.S. presidential elections—so the mRNA shots, the Epstein whitewash, and Al-Qaeda crashing on the White House couch? Not my circus, not my monkeys. That’s 100% on those of you who did, not on me. Hands clean, conscience clear.

This terrorist red-carpet rollout? Peak patriotism. The rest of you pearl-clutching holdouts are just jealous you missed the group hug.

Words are cheap when you don't participate in the most important part of being an American. Not voting is not an option. Write in yourself if you think you're the only sensible option.

Is attempting to end all killing via wars by any means possible a bad thing? Asking the dead and the families of the dead would be the proper place to start asking that question.

Amen brother. This guy, whatever name he goes by, shows up 1/29/25 as president of Syria. WTF? He's been incubated since Obama 1.0. We funded these guys and now we, to your point, put him in power because we could not tolerate Assad and his Russia friendly mentality. So, if you want peace with all the bullshit you inherited, move the fuck on.

I felt the same way! The promotion of Islam! The promotion of those whose agenda is to take over the world! Elevating a Terrorist! Not deporting Mamdani! Permitting Muslims in Congress! They are not permitted to take a vow, except to Allah; and they are permitted to lie in order to advance Islam! This is not the America i once knew.

As I see it, John Leake, the perverse Biden/Trudeau/Macron/Ardern/ (and every other) "Young Global Leader" era of virtue signaling is, thankfully, coming to a close. Honest people crave the truth, even the unblinking truth these days. Except, however, for the chimeras, the new breed... part beast and part human, jabbed, pineal compromised, and unable to engage in critical thinking... yes, they are stuck in the twilight zone inhabited by curious creatures like Fauci, Schwabb, Al Gore, and Bill Gates... folks for whom the truth chronically evades apparently, who still bear sway with the suggestibles. It appears to me that about one-half of the country falls on each side of the great divide currently, and hence, strange, dangerous times.

Greetings David, very elegantly put! Trump finds himself in the difficult place of being obliged to serve imperial interests while pretending to serve the citizens of a Republic, half of which hates him and have no idea what is going on. The other half knows that what is going on is terrible, elected him to rectify it, and is now suffering cognitive dissonance from his contradictory behavior.

Yes, well said. These people, globalists, 8% of Boomers (American 80M over 18 years, and global youth) were the 1960’s & 70’s “revolutionaries” from academia to the drugged up street hippies and Jody’s hijacked and inverted the original legitimate protests against a Congress in disarray after JFK was assassinated, and turned it into an “anti war movement” no one could deny, but it was all about perpetually hating and shaming America and anyone in uniform service to America, exactly what JFK asked of Americans, “ask not…but what you can do for America” speech so they killed him like Kirk. Then they antagonized from political universities like UC Berkeley, Columbia where the made Marx popular and filtered it down through tiered colleges, high schools and kitchen tables convincing Americans that America sucks, i.e. must be changed and used the protests to extend the war politically, still making America fell loathsome, become emasculated and women fragile, and here we are. The leaders all made names for themselves (Clinton’s, Hollywood starlets like Fonda,(knowing she could never match daddy’s beloved film career, Kerry, and thousands more did politic’s or Hollywood. Narcissist, schizo ugly drugs everywhere, free love (Roe v Wade, 1973). They vowed to march through the institutions and indeed they did by the terrible 1990’s when China magically became a favored nation, and old friend Vietnam.

So you fell for that fake 'assassination attempt'? The bogus lawsuits were a charade to get people like you to believe that there are two parties, that our electoral system works. The fact is, there is only one party, and that is the Deep State. They are in control of our government and all issues of significance. This has been the case for many years.

My reply to #Guntis (11h) & (10h)

Ah yes, but not exactly Guntis. President Trump know’s exactly what he is doing to prevent war, it’s just that it’s Veterans Day and all the fake American hubris of the people’s emotions are making them say stupid stuff, but you still get a “Bingo”. Move to the head of the class.

In modern warfare since WWII and Korea ended, (30%), 13% infantry, 17% forward support do the fighting and the 70% of rear echelon soldiers never fire a weapon, because of the “research and development” happening by happy contract warriors from academia, bureaucracy, tech, and corporate who over time in Nam’s 11 years took over the purpose of war and interfere with the actual military ethos of ending war asap with fewest casualties. In the case of Nam 3M who served in the “combat zone” (entire country), 70% were in large part there to support those going forward but were diverted to baby sitting civilian contractors rather than full support of those who actually engaged the enemy. The war went sideways, while the combatants had to deal the a six country Communist front enemy (Russian logistics and armament, China’s unlimited bodies, N. Korean tunnel diggers, N. Lao Communists, Cambodian Communist, helping the Viet Cong and NVA driving into South Vietnam, and lots of corruption happening in the rear. All this while the “anti war movement” said “uncle” Ho Chi Minh was a poor ole revolutionary hero, like Castro and Guevara. Right! Because the drugged up hippies, Jody’s, and the antagonist in academia, Hollywood starlets, and eventually media said so.

Anyway, I was a designated point man in an infantry rifle platoon with the 1st Brigade, 101st Airborne Div. 1967/68, constantly surrounded by and engaging the enemies exclusively in the central highlands of Vietnam. No roads, no villages, women, children, or “babies”.

I knew when we got home that the enemy was already in the gates six decades ago by the hate America and anyone in uniform service to America slander perpetrated by the Left that had infiltrated the original legitimate protest against a Congress in disarray following the assassinations of the 3K’s, and hijacked and inverted into a “anti war movement” that in effect extended the war by years, killing millions more, and interfering with the actual fighting military ethos of deterring war with strength or ending it asap (not the Pentagon that was already corrupted by Leftist enemies “foreign and domestic” promoting the “research and development” that Eisenhower warned about in full context of his 1961 farewell speech about post WWII). But the Leftist antagonists in academia, Hollywood, and media only used the part where Eisenhower said “military industrial complex” to use the military as their whipping boy, and perpetually shame America and it’s military.

It is very complicated and confusing for emotional Americans who with fake hubris allow themselves to carry water for the enemy because since WWII 99.999% of Americans have never been in war, close to war, and do not understand it is all about deception and counter information and what they hear might be propaganda. Hollywood, and media have never changed as tools for the Executive Branch and CIC during war, and the Leftist Chicom and friendame Islamist have been part of failed Presidency’s going back since Nam.

President Trump is a man of war deterrence however he can achieve it, and the heartfelt ninnies on Veterans Day are again carrying water for the enemy’s within that want war with Islam, Russia (Communist), but curiously not China. The enemy’s within love China and have for six decades.

One question: Now that Mandame is Mayor of NYC, what would John Leake and the whiners have President Trump do, bomb NYC? Do they want peace or not since they all are suddenly willing to hate the Islamist but know nothing except what they heard from somewhere and actually know nothing of war.

We are and have been in a propaganda, counter terrorist information war for America’s soul since WWII ended. The enemy’s are within, “foreign and domestic” having used the failing Democrat Party as their banner for six decades. You do not know what you think you know just because it satisfies anger.

The quickest way to die in war, especially jungle war is by loosing your cool with anger against the enemy. Fighting effectively means keeping one’s Witt’s about them.

But thank you for the 58 year belated concern America. Maybe sit this one out and let a real Commander in Chief continue to deter wars without spending 37 Trillion dollars to pay off enemies like we have for the past six decades buying peace, even allowing terribly unfair tariffs against America by ally’s, let alone enemies. This President want’s Peace beyond the eight wars he has already cooled.

Next up Ukraine v Russia. Islam is on the watch list as is Israel.

Al Qaeda and all the other terrorist groups were organized by the CIA and DIA. It was all intended to keep Russia out of the Middle East, to eliminate secular socialist leaders such as Saddam Hussein, Ghadaffi and Assad, and to facilitate the formation of "Greater Israel." During all this time, the Pentagon and U.S. policy have been dominated by Zionist influence, if not direct control. American military personnel are used as pawns ordered to fight the terrorists, who are secretly U.S.-backed.

All I can say is President Donald Trump has a high IQ=156. He is very business minded and plays 3-D Chess ♟️ He authored “The Art of The Deal.” He has accomplished almost everything that he promised, We The People” during his many presidential campaign speeches at his MAGA [Make America Great Again] rallies. He has been shot, criminally charged by Deep State Communists’ Rogue Obama/Clinton/Biden appointed Circuit Judges; Soros funded AG’s, Prosecutors & Special Prosecutor Jack Smith who was appointed by The Obiden Regime as “Special Counsel” to go after Donald Trump.

Everything that Donald Trump has done is to make America strong, build our military strength, expose The Money Laundering via USAID to DNC PAC’s, Soros Org.’ ActBlue.Org. and billions of dollars being stolen from Taxpayers and then rerouted back to DeepState Communists within our government.

This meeting was a strategic opportunity to obtain World Peace with The Middle Eastern Countries.

Donald Trump knows how important it is to keep your enemies close.

No credible evidence supports a Trump IQ of 156—that figure stems from a debunked 2015 rumor on fringe sites, with no test results ever released. Investigations confirm it's baseless.

More grounded estimates, based on speech patterns, academic record, and real-world decision-making, place it around 115—what older IQ scales (Wechsler, pre-1990s) called Bright Normal (110–119, 75th–90th percentile). This is solid but below:

Superior (120–129, 91st–97th percentile)

Very Superior (130+, 98th+ percentile)

At 115, he’s smarter than ~84% of people, worldwide—capable, not genius.

His IQ is less impressive when compared to people outside the US.

On average, Americans are subnormal.

The US is outranked in IQ by more than 30 other countries, including Communist and third world countries.

IQ is partly a function of education. America's educational institution resoundingly sucks--please excuse the coarseness--for the general population.

As to Trump and his IQ, it's understood that no one knows what his tested number may be, but it's largely irrelevant...mere fodder for Trivial Pursuit. He's smart, he's overaccomplished--in a very competitive industry--and he took Clinton, the DNC, the GOP, and the media/pundits to the woodshed, so one has to give him his due when discussing raw brake horsepower between the earlobes.

That's why a standing army deployable en masse to foreign lands is anathema to the Founders. A Navy, purposed to keep sea lanes open, and a Marine Corps, purposed to be the clawed fist at the end of the Navy reach, are what should be standing at all times.

Foreign wars are highly questionable. The US has no need to conquer foreign lands. It may have reason to defang particular dangers abroad--see Iran for that--but Afghanistan was a complete question mark from Day One.

A draft makes sense--sort of--for home invasion. Beyond that, it's a bloodthirsty politician's dream and nothing more. A nation in genuine fear of conquest will have no problem receiving volunteer men to fight it off. That's what self defense is all about--self.

Watching over American trade to foreign lands is a necessity. You may say it's a privateer's duty, but then it all goes asunder when nation states float their navies to strongarm. Navy is a nation-state undertaking.

Plus, it's more efficient than would be the case otherwise. The byproduct is that it is the military reserve when danger comes knocking.
