USAID, ISRAEL, SWATTING, & WAR:đź§µ

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…
3/

…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
4/

On the very beaches where cartels load people on zodiacs bound for Darién, you saw IOM signage.

Your tax dollars at work to facilitate an invasion of America…. Image
Image
5/

People flown into the US arrived with IOM swag.

Remember the flowchart:

US taxpayers —> USAID —> IOM/OIM —> funding of illegal immigration to flip red states to blue…. Image
6/

From here I went to the World Economic Forum to crash their party and then on to Cairo just last month.

Here’s where things get dicey.

While there, I decided to pay a visit to the USAID office. By this time, President Trump had issued his EO mandating USAID begin… Image
7/

…closing shop. Entering their office—which is actually a fortress—I asked: Are you complying with the President’s order?

I sensed panic.

Things went downhill from there, and I hurriedly left. They clearly were not winding down operations and, more telling, they… Image
8/

…reacted to my presence, not like an arm of benevolence “from the American people,” but like an intelligence agency.

A week later, I went back just to confirm a few impressions, but we made no attempt to enter. Recognizing me, the car was stopped and what followed was a…
9/

…2.5-hour standoff with the Egyptian secret police who continually tried to get me inside the USAID compound. I refused to move or be moved. It was very reminiscent of what the Saudi Arabian govt did to Jamal Khashoggi.

They first accused me of terrorism, hence my…
10/

…sarcastic moniker—and then of espionage. When they came to my hotel the next day, I had already slipped out of the country….

The irony, of course, is that USAID is renowned for its nefarious dealings as this African ambassador to the US noted in an interview. Many USAID employees are, she says, “operatives.” This is reinforced by my experience.

After my near-miss with Egyptian secret…
12/

…police, I had a nagging feeling as I continually replayed events of that day over and over in my mind.

Throughout the confrontation they were taking their orders from someone INSIDE the USAID compound. By the time I got to Prague, I was beginning to work it out…. Image
13/

It wasn’t an American calling the shots from inside USAID as I had assumed, it was an Arab.

Think about it. According to the US Embassy website, Sean Jones, appointed by Samantha Power, runs USAID-Cairo. If he gets a call from security informing him they have detained… Image
14/

…an American writer requesting an interview & wanting to know if they were complying with the EO to shut down, unless he’s a complete idiot he simply says:

“Don’t detain him! You’ll create an international incident. Just tell him, sorry, we can’t give an interview… Image
15/

…today. Then lie & say, yes, we are obeying the EO.”

Then I leave & there’s no story.

But that’s not what happened resulting in a Streisand Effect. The person giving orders inside had clearly told them to find a way to get me inside the compound, out of sight…
16/

…where they could Khashoggi me.

That’s Arab sh*t. I’ve seen it before. And an Arab would have Egyptian secret police on speed dial. The crux of the matter was that I had been deemed a major threat.

Why?

Because it isn’t pallets of rice and canned goods inside the…
17/

…USAID compound in Cairo. My intuition told me that the office, while technically run by Americans, was actually being run by Hamas or Hamas sympathizers who were running an anti-Israeli op—and they were afraid I knew it.

Moreover, I sensed Egypt was preparing for war…. Image
18/

I passed that information along to any who would listen.

I came back home and the next thing I know my German shepherd, Ranger, is alerting me to the fact that 5 men with AR15s and body armor are creeping around my house in silence under cover of darkness.

It takes…
19/

…little imagination to deduce what I was thinking as they walked along my deck pointing their semiautomatic rifles into my home.

I was armed.

I could see them, they could not yet see me. Thanks to the Good Lord and trigger discipline, no one was hurt.

But it raises…
20/

…an obvious question: why was I “swatted”?

Is it related to my exposure of USAID corruption in South America, Ukraine, and the Middle East?

I will share my theory on tomorrow’s episode of “Ideas Have Consequences,” posting here and on YT at 8 am CT. Image

I’m at Speakers’ Corner in London’s Hyde Park where I’ve formally debated Muslims many times.

What goes on here on Sunday afternoons? đź§µ

Here Muslims shout down a brave woman who refutes the truth of Islam.

Here a Christian who was once a Muslim (wearing the scarf) argues with a Muslim man who wants to prevent him from sharing the gospel.

HOW THE LORD WORKS MYSTERIOUSLY: đź§µ

As you must now know, there was a pro-freedom march in London today.

Led by @TRobinsonNewEra, it was a huge success. According to Metro Police, only 50k showed up.

Does this look like “only” 50k? Lol.

There is a backstory here that…

…involved one of the speakers and goes back more than a decade:

I met Nigerian Anglican Bishop Jwan Zhumbes in seminary. We were immediately drawn to one another by a desire to confront Islam and bring aid to those who suffer at the hands of Muslims.

Knowing I was a… Image

…writer, he invited me to visit his diocese in Nigeria’s Plateau State to see the sheer scale of the terror for myself. Much to his surprise, I accepted and went.

In those days you had to fly into Lagos or Abuja and take the extremely dangerous open roads to the north…. Image

Remember this? đź§µ

Democrat strategy is working:

1. Radicalize people with the steady drip of hateful propaganda until assassinating President Trump and his supporters seems HEROIC…. Image
2. Normalize his murder… Image
3. Progress to the REPEATED use of violent rhetoric, but always so that you can deny you meant it literally…. Image

THE LEFT’S OBSESSION WITH POPULATION CONTROL: 🧵

Climate alarmist Paul Ehrlich died yesterday.

Perhaps no post-WW2 book has had such a dramatic and disastrous influence on national policy as his The Population Bomb (1968).

The book predicted (wrongly) that within the next… Image

…decade hundreds of millions would die from starvation due to limited planetary resources.

Non-academic in tone, the book reads like a secular version of Revelation. The first sentence says it all: “The battle to feed all of humanity is over.”

The cover is no less… Image

…alarmist: “While you are reading these words 4 people will die of starvation — and 24 more babies will have been born.”

Ehrlich’s book rocketed up the bestseller lists and penetrated popular culture. Attached below is a clip from Laugh-In shortly after the book’s release:

HAMAS: COMING TO AMERICAđź§µ

As promised, my report from Israel.

First, a few background notes.

If you’re looking for a thread that runs through all of the countries/places I’m visiting on my latest expedition—World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland; Auschwitz - Birkenau &…
2.

…Nowa Huta near Krakow, Poland; Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, & Gaza; and 3 more countries to go—it is this:

I intend to demonstrate how the crackpot ideas that are historically formed in places like Davos become policy and are sent downstream and demolish the lives of millions….

…Those who formulate these ideas are invariably leftists who are, in the words of Russian historian Sheila Fitzpatrick, “enthusiasts, zealots, and utopians mesmerized by big, distant goals…. They have the intoxicating illusion they personify the will of the people….” Image

WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM UPDATE (FINAL REPORT): đź§µ

Now that I’ve had time to process this year’s annual WEF Nuremberg-like rally in Davos, Switzerland, I’m ready to give you the main takeaways.

A. It starts with President Trump.

Every single report following the president’s… Image

…address was either outright lies or missed the point. Trump’s thesis wasn’t Greenland or NATO or Ukraine or borders or windmills or the economy.

These were all spokes off of a central hub: “American citizens.” This is what made his remarks so remarkable, especially…
3.

…in a place like Davos.

The World Economic Forum has been a fundamentally anti-human organization since its founding. Their mission statement is nothing if not ambiguous: “Improving the state of the world.”

Much like a classic episode of The Twilight Zone where aliens…
