Thanks for the work you're doing and or the link to the Onion article. We need satire more than ever.

Seeing important stories like this begin to get much deserved traction makes me more than satisfied about the $10 a month I've been sending Ken since I became one of his subscribers several months ago. I consider it a tremendously satisfying bargain.

It is notable to know that she has taken this stance. It is also notable that she has taken major money from AIPAC and other pro-Israel groups. It is notable also that her background (military and intelligence) is similar to shockingly number of candidates running as “resistence” or “opposition” to Trump. It is hard to believe they will be resistance or opposition to Israel or brutal US capitalist imperialism.

This is an incredibly alarming report, and grows even more disturbing in light of the administration's asserted authority to arbitrarily kill without charge or trial. I wrote a few weeks ago about the dangers of that authority, as well as its outrageously bipartisan origins. https://shahidbuttar.substack.com/p/trumps-arbitrary-assassinations-were

Given that this policy memo may impact charitable organizations and their tax exempt status, I just modified my living trust to say that I wanted any bequests to go to named organizations whether or not they had federal tax exempt status at the time of my death.

I don't like the looks of this, but am glad to have gotten the alert.

The "anti-Christian" stuff is very disturbing...not that the rest of it isn't. I apologize if I posted this here before but it's always worth reading. Never known as a lefty, senator Barry Goldwater said this in the early 90s:

"Mark my word, if and when these preachers get control of the [Republican] party, and they're sure trying to do so, it's going to be a terrible damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me. Politics and governing demand compromise. But these Christians believe they are acting in the name of God, so they can't and won't compromise. I know, I've tried to deal with them."

I'm surprised this doesn't pop up more often but maybe that's deliberate.

Glad Senator Slotkin is making an issue of these potentially unconstitutional edicts, but wondering where her concern was when equally deplorable programs like “Quiet Skies” and the “Overt Human Intelligence Collection”? 🤔. It’s the height of hypocrisy that you can cut with a knife. Yes, she’s right about the concern, but as always, it’s more partisan play, rather than legitimate concern 😉

Very satisfying to watch the relative speed that your revelation about NSPM-7 has made it out to the public and now Congress! I guess its really a CONGRATS to all who pushed into the public eye ❣️

NY Times: "The White House announcement was attended by Attorney General Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, the F.B.I. director, who indicated that the bureau’s joint terrorism task forces would be used to carry out the president’s directive.

The memorandum ordered those task forces to provide regular updates to Stephen Miller, Mr. Trump’s deputy chief of staff and homeland security adviser, who called the plan “an all-of-government effort to dismantle left-wing terrorism, to dismantle antifa.”

Slotkin is a big supporter of Israel, no surprise. I am dedicated to getting all Zionists out of Congress starting with challenging every candidate for office to say if they support liberty and justice for all or Israel.

I'm not talking about Jews, many of whom are not Zionists, most notably the courageous members of Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP). I mean supporters of Israel. What you have written about here is good evidence that Slotkin has little to no regard for liberty and justice for all, though from his expression as he hears her speak, Mark Kelly may.

Because ethnic supremacy is the antithesis of liberty and justice for all, one cannot be a supporter of both. A country that claims to be all about LJ4A should not be sending one penny to Israel or supplying it with one bullet.

America's soul has been purchased by Zionist-American billionaire money, taking over MSM, channeled through such as AIPAC to leverage our completely corrupt political system to turn this country upside down for an ethnic cleansing nation of 1/40th our population. And to seal the deal, the red herring of "antisemitism in America" (Zionist Elise Stefanik leading the parade) has locked down our campuses, tossing aside freedom of speech.

Where are yard signs against Trump or against Israel? What kind of Americans are we, cowering and hoping things get better. The founders would weep! The popular bumper stickers tell the story: "PLEASE BE PATIENT, STUDENT DRIVER" This is not the land of the brave but of the TIMID!
