In case you're STILL confused about mafia enabler Merrick Garland, please read this article. I wrote it in 2023. It is not a response to current events. It explains why the these events would happen unless good people intervened -- which they did not. sarahkendzior.substack.com/p/servants-o...

Interesting conversation, well worth listening to all of it.

As the descendant of people who were forcibly brought here in the early 18th century by Dutch and British slavers, please Representative, tell me more about "what American is all about."
Rep. Kat Cammarck: "Today, one in six people in the US is foreign born. That quite frankly is not sustainable to maintain a culture that we are known for here in the United States."

The Usurri River flows along the border between Russia and China. In 1969 Chinese soldiers stationed there started mooning the Russians. The Russians responded by holding up pictures of Mao so the Chinese would be mooning their own leader. 23 people died as a result of this.

New: Hillary Clinton will be speaking at an event hosted by Israel Hayom (Israel's most read newspaper, run by Israeli-American billionaire & Trump megadonor Miriam Adelson).

She'll join John Fetterman, Eric Adams, Trump UN Ambassador Mike Waltz, Biden official Amos Hochstein, and Israeli officials

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night.

Any one of us could be on the next boat that Trump bombs on a whim.

Any one of us could be detained for hours despite being a U.S. citizen.

Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

The president is about to start a war for no real reason. All of the things he has blamed on the country he’s targeting — fentanyl distribution, “emptying the asylums” and sending patients to the U.S., alignment with Tren de Aragua— are provably, obviously false.

Lots of people are going to die.

31 years ago this month, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch and tell me if I was wrong.
