‘Surreal to Watch’: With Trump Ahead, Stolen Election Seen ‘In Crystal Clarity’

With the 2024 presidential contest fast approaching, some high-profile political voices are sounding the alarm about a potentially rigged election in November.

Among them are Mike Benz, the executive director of the Foundation For Freedom Online, and billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk. . .

Just two days ago, Benz, a former State Department cyber expert, had another eye-opening exchange with Musk regarding the upcoming election, focusing on the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s targeting of Trump fans. . .

He was posting a warning from America First Legal which indicated: “Internal docs from Biden’s DHS show their plans to target Trump [supporters] as domestic extremists.

“The Brennan-Clapper intel group discussed how ‘most of the domestic terrorism threat now comes from supporters of the former president.'” (Read more from “‘Surreal to Watch’: With Trump Ahead, Stolen Election Seen ‘In Crystal Clarity'” HERE)

Instagram Urges Users to Reconsider Following Tucker Carlson in ‘Insane Warning’

Tucker Carlson has over 3.7 million followers on Instagram. On X, he has nearly 13 million followers. While his following on X is likely far more significant because it is the ostensibly less censorious platform where Carlson routinely uploads episodes of his new show, there may be another reason to account for the delta.

Ashton DeGroot, Blaze Media’s social media content coordinator, observed Monday that following Carlson is no easy feat on the Meta platform.

A perfunctory search for Carlson failed to turn up his verified account. Instead, impersonators and fan accounts flooded the results. After multiple tries, it appeared clear that Carlson’s verified account would only appear if his exact handle, @TuckerCarlson, was entered into the search bar.

Upon finding Carlson’s account, DeGroot found that Instagram put up one last barrier to engagement, imploring prospective followers to reconsider.

The pop-up reads, “Are you sure you want to follow tuckercarlson?”

“This account has repeatedly posted false information that was reviewed by independent fact-checkers or it went against our Community Guidelines,” added the pop-up. (Read more from “Instagram Urges Users to Reconsider Following Tucker Carlson in ‘Insane Warning'” HERE)

Julian Assange Agrees to Biden Admin Plea Deal

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange struck a deal Monday with the Biden administration, pleading guilty to a felony charge related to his alleged role in releasing classified U.S. material, according to multiple reports.

The 52-year-old reported agreed to the single criminal count of violating the U.S. espionage law by “conspiring to obtain and disclose classified U.S. national defense documents,” according to filed court documents from the U.S. District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands, Reuters reported. Assange was seen leaving the Belmarsh maximum security prison in the United Kingdom where he has spent nearly 5 years being held up while waiting to be extradited to the U.S.

“Julian Assange is free,” Wikileaks posted to Twitter. “He left Belmarsh maximum security prison on the morning of 24 June, after having spent 1901 days there. He was granted bail by the High Court in London and was released at Stansted airport during the afternoon, where he boarded a plane and departed the UK.”

“This is the result of a global campaign that spanned grass-roots organisers, press freedom campaigners, legislators and leaders from across the political spectrum, all the way to the United Nations,” the post continues. “This created the space for a long period of negotiations with the US Department of Justice, leading to a deal that has not yet been formally finalised. We will provide more information as soon as possible.”

Video footage posted online captured the Wikileaks founder boarding a jet in England where he will return to his native country, Australia.

Spider-Man Comic Featuring ‘Queer’ Trans-Anarchist Villains Promoted to Children for Pride Month

A free comic book promoted by Marvel for Pride Month featured multiple messages about gender and sexuality while being targeted at children 13 years old and up.

As part of an initiative for inclusivity, Marvel sent out free issues of its “Marvel Voices” comic to distributors for Free Comic Book Day.

The gender and sexuality-driven issue was targeted at teens and also had dedicated pages regarding black and “indigenous” stories and creators.

After a Bollywood-themed Spider-Man and a female hero named Spider-Gwen, a glowing Spider-Man took on a rather interesting foe.

The comic showed a group of thugs ransacking the Stark pharmaceutical company, as the leader of the gang is shown to be a “trans woman” named Peach. (Read more from “Spider-Man Comic Featuring ‘Queer’ Trans-Anarchist Villains Promoted to Children for Pride Month” HERE)

Judge Undermines Parental Rights, Blocking Access to Kids’ Medical Records

In a contentious legal battle, a Washington state judge has partially blocked key elements of the newly enacted “A Parents’ Bill of Rights” law. This Republican-backed initiative, spearheaded by state Rep. Jim Walsh, aims to reinforce the role of parents in their children’s education and well-being. Despite the legal setback, most of the law’s provisions remain intact, marking a crucial step in the fight for parental rights.

Initiative 2081, also known as “A Parents’ Bill of Rights,” was approved earlier this year by the Washington state legislature in decisive votes. The initiative declares 15 rights for parents and guardians of public school children, ensuring transparency and parental involvement in various aspects of their children’s lives, including educational materials, school records, and health services.

Rep. Walsh emphasized the importance of this initiative, stating, “Custodial parents and guardians cannot be kept in the dark about what their minor children are going through in their lives. Parents have to be told — whether it’s things happening at school or things happening in the healthcare or mental healthcare space connected with school, or really anything affecting a minor child.”

Despite the broad support for the initiative, its implementation faced immediate legal challenges from radical LGBT organizations, represented by activist firms QLaw, Legal Voice, and the ACLU of Washington. These groups argued that the law infringes on students’ rights to privacy and an inclusive educational environment, asserting that it could cause “irreparable harm” to queer and trans students.

Last week, King County Superior Court Judge Michael Scott, appointed by Democratic Governor Jay Inslee, granted a temporary block on parts of the law. Specifically, the judge halted the provisions requiring schools to grant parents access to all their children’s medical and mental health counseling records and the requirement for schools to promptly turn over these records.

While the judge’s ruling is a setback, the bulk of the Parents’ Bill of Rights remains in effect. Rep. Walsh expressed encouragement that the judge left most of the law intact, highlighting the ongoing struggle for parental rights in the face of opposition from progressive groups and certain state officials.

Democratic State Superintendent Chris Reykdal has also weighed in, instructing school districts not to implement parts of the law until further legal clarity is achieved.

Brian Heywood, a key supporter of Initiative 2081, criticized Reykdal’s approach, accusing him of undermining democracy. “WA state Superintendent of Schools believes he is above the law and that the state knows better than parents what is best for your children,” Heywood stated. He called for Reykdal’s removal from office.

Controversial White House Official Tyler Cherry Hates Israel

Tyler Cherry, the newly-appointed White House Associate Communications Director whose radical, anti-white tweets have become a lightning rod for controversy, also has a long history of anti-Israel rants on social media.

As Breitbart News reported Sunday: “Tyler Cherry found himself in the center of a social media firestorm over the last week when past posts resurfaced that featured him espousing extremist rhetoric.” Many of the posts were harshly critical of law enforcement, and disparaged white people.

Jewish Insider reports that Cherry had anti-Israel posts as well:

Cherry’s posts on Israel date back to 2014 and 2015, when he was an undergraduate at the University of California Los Angeles. His criticism of American support for Israel stands in contrast to the Biden administration’s stated support for the Jewish state since the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks and the resulting Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.

Former Fundraiser for Obama Leaves Democrat Party, Supports Trump

A former fundraiser who helped raise millions of dollars for former President Barack Obama spoke about her “divorce” from the Democrat Party and how she is supporting former President Donald Trump.

During an interview on Fox News’s Jesse Watters Primetime, Allison Huynh explained that several issues had occurred leading up to her leaving the party.

Huynh created Willow Garage, a robotics company in 2006 with her ex-husband, Scott Hassan, who worked as a programmer for Google. Huynh and Hassan hosted dinners that cost roughly $50,000 to $100,000 a plate per person, according to the New York Post.

“Like any divorce, there’s not just one thing, there’s a series of things that led up to it,” Huynh explained during her interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters. . .

“The Democrats were policing the wrong things,” Huynh added. “The things that we need to police are violent criminals that are scattered throughout the streets of San Francisco, people defecating, shooting up heroin in front of me and my kids, and allowing criminals to go in and steal from our grocery stores, shutting down grocery stores.” (Read more from “Former Fundraiser for Obama Leaves Democrat Party, Supports Trump” HERE)

American Factory Supplying Ammo to U.S., Ukraine is Apparently Reliant on Foreign Tech

A new domestically-based plant supplying arms to the U.S. and Ukraine is filled almost entirely with foreign technologies, The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday

A new factory built by defense contractor General Dynamics in Texas is playing a key role in producing the needed armaments, but it is nearly totally reliant on foreign-provided technology and machinery, underscoring the U.S.’ increasing reliance on the international community to revamp domestic weapons production, according to the WSJ. The Biden administration is spending billions of dollars to quickly boost arms production amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war and a commitment to supply weapons to Kyiv — and to restock the U.S.’ own military stockpiles.

“Without the support from Turkey, this facility would be empty,” U.S. Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said during a recent tour of the factory, according to the WSJ.

General Dynamics tapped Repkon, a Turkish-based defense contractor, to supply hydraulic presses critical in the production of artillery shells, according to the WSJ. The Biden administration is seeking to ramp up shell production from roughly 30,000 to 100,000 by the end of 2025, and the General Dynamics Texas plant would account for roughly half that total.

The Turkish company provided the presses because no U.S.-based supplier would have been ready in time to get the plant operational within the next two years, according to the WSJ. Robotic and automated machines in the factory are supplied from Germany by the manufacturer Kuka, which was bought out in 2016 by Chinese-based company Midea, according to the WSJ.

Biden Admin Weighed Using ‘School Children’ to Help Register Dem-Leaning Voters, Emails Show

The Biden administration sought taxpayer funding for a program that would use school children to provide voter registration materials to Native Americans, according to emails obtained by Protect the Public’s Trust and shared with the Daily Caller News Foundation.

Department of the Interior (DOI) officials in 2022 developed a plan that would have given Native American children attending Bureau of Indian Education (BIE) schools voter registration materials to bring home to their parents, internal emails show. Native Americans strongly preferred Democratic House candidates that year, with 56% saying they would cast their ballot for a Democrat compared to the 40% who said they’d vote Republican, according to a poll conducted by the African American Research Collaborative shortly before the midterm elections.

“Department leadership is proposing having BEI send home voter registration cards with students to give to their parents,” BIE team lead Jennifer Wiginton wrote in a February 2022 email.

BIE’s proposed native voter registration plan, according to DOI attorney-advisor Joshua Berg, was formulated to comply with Executive Order 14019, which President Joe Biden issued in March 2021. The order compelled the heads of federal agencies to “evaluate ways in which the agency can, as appropriate and consistent with applicable law, promote voter registration and voter participation.”

Berg went into greater detail regarding the proposed voter registration operation, writing in March 2022 that he and his colleagues had “developed a plan to distribute voter registration applications at BIE schools so that school children [could] bring home voter registration applications to their parents and/or guardians.” Under Berg’s plan, the federal government would also have provided “return envelopes with pre-paid postage so that parents and/or guardians [could] mail in their completed voter registration applications directly to the corresponding elections office in their state.” (Read more from “Biden Admin Weighed Using ‘School Children’ to Help Register Dem-Leaning Voters, Emails Show” HERE)
