This should be a major scandal. The Blaze falsely reported that a former U.S. Capitol Police officer was the Jan. 6th pipe bomber. But it wasn’t just another miss by conservative media promoting conspiracies.

Someone in US intel - at ODNI - was promoting it:

🇺🇸⚡️ In both recordings of the conversations published by Bloomberg, only one interlocutor remains unchanged - Putin's aide Yuri Ushakov, - Ukraine context

Which suggests that it was his phone that was "wiretapped", the "leak" could have taken place purposefully and precisely from the Russian side.

So I’ve made it official folks: I’ve filed the paperwork to run for Governor of Alabama. It’s time to remind this state of who we are and what we can accomplish together.

This is the last of the "assaults" from September 27 that NDIL dismissed, a day where Greg Bovino was deliberately promising a "shitshow."

Basically they knocked over a 70-year old guy and then accused him of assault.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Gabriel Fuentes, in dismissing Midway Blitz-related charges against Dana Briggs last week, said he was lifting restrictions on relevant video.

Today he made the video available through the clerk's office at no cost to the public. Here's the first.

@pbump.com is being a bit snide here but more background is useful.

On the right, he's showing how Trump's AI/Crypto Czar begged for a bailout after he played a key role in starting a run on the bank.

On the left, Sacks is begging already.
You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

Some of you make me sick. Mamdani kisses the ring and he's a "brilliant strategist" and "diplomatic genius".

Jeffries & Schumer get crucified for even whispering the word bi-partisan. Whitmer got flamed for her visit. Harris is still being bludgeoned for appearing with Cheney.

Absolutely horrific. ICE detained and abducted a minor—a high school student—who the family identified as a US citizen.

This week alone:

-Trump called for Democrats in Congress to be hanged.

-Defended the slaughter of a U.S. journalist in front of his killer.

-Surrendered to the murderous Putin who he called a "savvy genius" after his attack on Ukraine.

This guy is the greatest threat to America we've ever known.

I think this clip is the key to understanding why Trump acted the way he did with Mamdani. His world revolves around TV ratings.
