THE GAY-ING OF HISTORY:🧵

I started Netflix’s new series “Transatlantic.” Contrary to what you might think, it’s not the story of a transgender love boat, though I’m sure Netflix is working on that.

It’s about Varian Fry’s heroic efforts to evacuate Jews from Hitler’s… Image

…Europe.

Transatlantic is an elegant, expensive period piece full of lush French vineyards and charming villas. There’s even time for romance.

In some ways, the series forges new territory, injecting some levity into an otherwise heavy topic. This isn’t Schindler’s List. Image
3/9

Distance from the actual events affords filmmakers some creative license, and to this extent I do not object.

They don’t make light of the Holocaust nor of the war itself. Instead, they’ve almost given this topic its own version of “The Great Escape,” making the victims… Image

…heroes.

Almost.

Creative license can go too far, perverting history and its heroes, and that’s what Netflix has done here.

Bowing—or should I say ‘bending over’?—in #Budweiser fashion to the gay times in which we live, Netflix made Varian Fry a homosexual.

While… Image

…many other characters in this series are fictitious, Varian Fry, an American, was as real to WW2 as Winston Churchill or Ernie Pyle. But it seems that the homosexual lobby decided WW2 needed some gay heroes, and since it is well-known that Ike and FDR liked the ladies, a… Image

…lesser known figure was chosen to carry the gay banner forward.

Only it never happened.

Not only was Fry not a homosexual, he was a twice-married father of three. The book upon which Transatlantic is based established the gay legend for Fry.

Predictably, The New York… Image

…Times brushed off this historical inconvenience as trivial.

History is full of inconveniences for those wishing to rewrite it. For example, did you know that many of the early Nazis were notorious homosexuals? William Shirer (see excerpt from “The Rise & Fall of the… Image
8/9

…Third Reich” below) and others made this connection long ago. I’m waiting for that Netflix series.

There’s a moral obligation on those who would tell the stories of history’s heroes and victims that they do it with care and integrity.

So, let it be hereby known that… Image
9/9

…Robert the Bruce was the real “Braveheart,” not William Wallace;

80% of men on the Titanic died while only 25% of women perished (and neither Jack nor Rose were among them)—

—and Varian Fry was a hero and he was not, according to both wives and his biographer, gay. Image

USAID, ISRAEL, SWATTING, & WAR:🧵

Now, about that USAID rabbit hole I’ve been promising you….

Last week, my home was “swatted,” which is nothing less than attempted murder by proxy.

But why?

Let’s try to connect some dots.
2/

For several years I have been investigating our border crisis—but waaay on the other side of the border.

This took me all over South and Central America, primarily to cartel towns, Darién, and migrant camps.

Everywhere I saw USAID signage. I saw they were working in…

…collaboration with drug cartels to facilitate the largest human trafficking op in modern history right through our borders.

They did it through a series of NGOs, most prominent among them was the UN’s OIM (or sometimes IOM): Organization for International Migration…. Image

1/5

I was SWATed last night as you can see in these 3 videos.

I was in bed, but noticed Ranger, my German shepherd, was on the prowl, his ears up. I heed his instincts.

I then saw a flicker of light on my BR door. Ranger went to investigate, I got my gun…..
2/5

I saw the silhouette of a man on my deck with an AR15.

Given my recent run-in with USAID and the Egyptian secret police in Cairo, I didn’t know what to think.

I could hear whispers and saw two other men also in body armor, heavily armed….
3/5

I turned on a light and told them to identify themselves. They did as you’ll see, by I kept my weapon. It de-escalated from there.

The officers told me they’d received a call from someone claiming to be in my home and hiding while I shot people.

These were good guys…

***USAID - CAIRO CORRUPTION***

By God’s grace, I am now out of Egypt.

Let me state at the outset of this report:

• An X🧵is insufficient to tell the full story.

• There are ongoing complications. So you must read between the lines.

Last week in a🧵that got 12 million…

…views, I reported that I made a visit to USAID - Cairo.

To those unfamiliar with my work, I have been tracking globalist initiatives at both ends:

• At the idea level (e.g., the World Economic Forum in Davos).

• Then I go downstream to see how those idea play out… Image

…in the lives of real people. You see, globalists have insulated themselves from the often awful consequences of their own ideas.

For the last 3 years I have attended the WEF where they have promoted open borders and then I went to cartel country & Darién in Central &…

***USAID - CAIRO 1/14***

Today I paid an unexpected visit to the USAID headquarters in Cairo.

The last few years I have shown you how USAID organized, financed, & ran the invasion across our southern border.

Today I visited their fortress-like offices in Egypt….
2/14

Approaching the gate manned by Egyptian guards, we bluffed our way in and drove through the su*cide b*m8er barriers. This was aided, no doubt, by the fact that we were in a Mercedes (the diplomatic car of choice) and I look unmistakably American.
3/14

My driver waited in the car while I walked the perimeter looking for the entrance.

There is no USAID signage of any kind on this citadel of corrupt bureaucracy….

A SPY AT THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM:🧵

The eyes of the world are rightly on Donald Trump's inauguration as President of the United States.

But let's not forget that while globalists have suffered a setback, they're meeting this week, per usual, in Davos.

I'll be there.Image
2/16

Indeed, the California fires and Trump's inauguration have made it possible for the WEF to meet under the cover of darkness.

What exactly is the WEF and why should you care?

The World Economic Forum, founded in 1971, is a kind of action committee for...Image
3/16

...a clique of godless globalists who see themselves as more enlightened than the rest of us.

As such, they feel it their right, no, their responsibility, to determine how the rest of us will live--right down to the minutest detail.

In other words, the WEF is...Image

A Christmas I’ll Never Forget:🧵

I was 21. A truck driver during the day and a student at night, I was asked to teach Sunday school at a little rural Alabama church that met only twice a month.

You see, the membership was old and few in number. Many thought the church…Image

…should be closed. But these ornery old people liked their church and didn’t care what anyone else thought they should or shouldn’t do.

One of the members had heard me speak and asked if I would be their pastor.

Pastor?

I didn’t know anything about that, but I agreed… Image

…to come every other week to teach Sunday school for a couple of months until they could find someone else. Amused by my youth and energy, they had no intentions of replacing me and two months stretched into two years.

On Christmas Eve of 1988, I did something I had… Image
