@TishJames gave the most impassioned and theater quality announcement regarding a complaint against the #NRA. It was dramatic in its presentation and begged for SNL sketch treatment. I know people were salivating over hearing anything about @realDonaldTrump. I have a few ideas.
When will @TishJames address the #ClintonFoundation? When will she address and investigate how contributions to BLM are funneled and re-distributed? When will she address how law enforcement in the State of New York has turned its back on riots, bloodshed and violence?
Did @TishJames deliver this dramatic theater quality recitation of a complaint against the #NRA miraculously coinciding with #BasementJoeBiden’s staff tweets anent a sudden concern over military-grade weapons and NRAesque protestations? Come on, Tish. We’re not that stupid.

When the signal is given that Zelenskyy is not valuable anymore as a choreographed caricature he will be ignored and ghosted faster than a hypersonic missile. It will be over with in the flash of an eye. And you know this is the shadow government MO ammo. But it was magic.
Shadow government behavioral scientists study precisely the momentum and percussion of social media trending fads and gimmicks. They have used social media platforms as laboratories to spin and direct focused attention. They know exactly how to craft tropes.
Zelenskyy was brilliant stagecrafting from the moment he made the transition from a suit to the battle green T-shirt. When he commenced his video tour all subsidiary governments assumed their positions and were ready to applaud even though they didn’t even understand why.
Riyadh is inviting Xi Jinping for a state visit. Why does that matter? He hasn’t left China in two years. This is far more than symbolic. The balance of powers isn’t changing, they have changed. The great reset. MBS is not answering Biden‘s calls. The US is on the outs.
Expect the visit perhaps in May. And the parallels cannot be avoided with Trump’s visit in 2017, where he was warmly welcomed on his first foreign visit. Trump’s focus was rebuilding an old relationship. China’s visit is about starting a new one. Meanwhile Biden is AWOL.
Xi has reached out to Iran Israel UAE and Riyadh. China needs oil and will receive such uninterruptedly from Saudi Arabia, a country that does not like to be lectured by Biden. Joe ended US support for the war in Yemen. He declassified files linking MBS to Khashoggi‘s murder.
The EU is the embodiment of irrelevant. The 27 countries comprising such enjoy a schizoid camaraderie. Western Europe believes in concession appeasement and doing absolutely nothing that could impede the smooth and continuous flow of Russian oil. Eastern Europe is different.
Western Europe is protected and buffered by geography. They are colonial by nature and have never felt the terror of invasion. Eastern Europe is taking the brunt of refugees. Their economies are weaker. They crave the notion of being tough. Of standing up to behemoths.
Look no further than Lithuania in their tough stance against China and Russia. This while Western Europe stares off in both disbelief and obliviousness. US media have no concern or interest in the European theater. But they will. Trust me. bnnbloomberg.ca/squeezed-lithu…
Joe Biden was asked whether he thought Vladimir Putin was a war criminal. He answered no and then was nudged by his handlers, changed his mind on the spot, and then said yes. As usual most have no understanding of what a war criminal is under statutes treaties and protocol.
@PressSec immediately tried to clarify Biden’s seeming confusion by saying that he “spoke from the heart.” We are not sure at what point he spoke from his heart: when he disagreed or agreed with the idea of Putin being declared a war criminal.
The first question is statutory, how is the designation of war criminal determined. The @IntlCrimCourt defines it and Putin seems liable. But there’s a catch. Russia does not recognize the ICC’s jurisdiction. Neither does the US. But the Senate disagrees. reuters.com/world/us/us-se…
“Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man gainst his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birthright of an Americans.”
Today learn everything you can about the life and words of one of our greatest Americans, Tench Coxe. It is time to reconstitute the citizen and civilian militia and his words ring true today. Law enforcement has exhibited an inability/refusal to protect us. Fact.
“The unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments but where, I trust in God, it will always remain, in the hands of the people.”
#KyleRittenhouse was the greatest trial witness ever. The prosecution showed a nonpareil breathtaking ineptitude. And then commenting on a defendant's invoking the right to remain silent. This was textbook mistrial material today. Rittenhouse will walk. lionelmedia.com
The #KyleRittenhouseTrial will be required study for all aspiring prosecutors on how not to present a case. It’s a symphony of boneheaded gaffes, unforced errors, constitutionally egregious errata and singularly the worst cross-examination in recorded juridical history.
I cannot believe how many times the #Rittenhouse prosecutor asks him to repeat and clarify damning evidence for the state that allows the jury to hear yet again how the young #Kyle was placed in danger and threatened with imminent death and/or great bodily harm. Unbelievable.
