‘Scariest Thing I’ve Ever Seen’: Mike Johnson Drops Truth Bomb About Who’s Running This Country

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Friday recounted a meeting with President Biden from early last year when the president appeared to forget he signed an executive order pausing the export of liquified natural gas (LNG).

Johnson publicly recalled the story for the first time to Bari Weiss during an episode of her podcast “Honestly” for The Free Press after saying that through his “personal observation” in dealing with Biden, the president “has not been in charge for some time.” Johnson’s story was first reported by the Wall Street Journal in June, though the newspaper’s reporting relied on anonymous sources at the time.

When Weiss asked Johnson to elaborate on his observations, the speaker began his tale of how Biden’s staff kept brushing off his attempts to schedule a meeting with the president in January 2024 amid “big national concerns” that Johnson said he “was losing sleep over.” . . .

“I show up and I realize it’s actually an ambush ’cause it’s not just me and the president,” Johnson said. “It’s also Kamala Harris, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem, you know, The CIA Director.”

Johnson said the group began to “hot box” him on Ukraine funding when Biden asked if he could have the room with him, a request that Johnson said left the president’s staff visibly concerned.

Christian Banned From Military Leadership, Now All Hell Breaks Loose

A lawsuit has been filed against Idaho Gov. Brad Little and couple of the state’s National Guard leaders for removing a Christian officer from command “solely due to his personal Christian expression on biblical sexuality made outside of the military environment.”

The action is coming from Liberty Counsel, which has reported on facts of the situation.

“The ‘No Christians in Command’ policy constitutes a religious gerrymander by unconstitutionally orphaning sincerely held religious beliefs while permitting the more favored nonreligious value systems,” the case charges. “On its face and as applied, [the policy] lacks any rational basis and is irrational and unjustifiable.” . . .

The dispute is over the state’s attacks on Maj. David Worley, an infantry officer who ran for mayor in Pocatello, Idaho.

“During Worley’s political campaign, which he conducted strictly outside his military duties, he expressed his religious convictions and moral objections to certain issues relevant to political discourse in his community. He expressed his opposition to issues involving so-called ‘Drag Queen Story Hours,’ pornographic material for minors in public libraries, and the medical mutilation of gender-confused children. All of Worley’s protected speech occurred off-duty in his private capacity and before he took command of the Idaho Army National Guard’s Recruiting and Retention unit,” the legal team said.

Trump Yanks Security Clearances of Intel Officials Who Spread Disinformation About Hunter Biden’s Laptop

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday night revoking the security clearances of 51 former intelligence officials who falsely claimed emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop were Russian “disinformation” to help Joe Biden’s 2020 election prospects. The directive also pulls the security clearance of John Bolton, who served as national security advisor in Trump’s first term.

“To remedy these abuses of the public trust, this Order directs the revocation of any active or current security clearances held by: (i) the former intelligence officials who engaged in misleading and inappropriate political coordination with the 2020 Biden presidential campaign; and (ii) John R. Bolton,” the order reads.

The infamous Oct. 19, 2020, letter included signatures from dozens of former intel officials who baselessly contended the emails from Hunter’s laptop that were reported by the New York Post weeks before the 2020 contest bore “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.” Biden then weaponized the phony statement during his Oct. 22, 2020, debate against Trump to dispel the latter’s criticisms of the Biden family’s foreign business dealings.

Former CIA Directors John Brennan and Leon Panetta and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper were among those to sign the letter.

Under Monday’s edict, the directors of National Intelligence and the CIA are ordered to submit a report within 90 days to Trump that includes “any additional inappropriate activity that occurred within the Intelligence Community, by anyone contracted by the Intelligence Community or by anyone who held a security clearance, related to the letter signed by the 51 former intelligence officials.” (Read more from “Trump Yanks Security Clearances of Intel Officials Who Spread Disinformation About Hunter Biden’s Laptop” HERE)

Trump Takes Oath Without Hand on Bible Sparking Claims He’s the Antichrist & Other Lunacy

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts flubbed Barack Obama’s oath of office some years ago.

He rearranged the words of the oath, moving “faithfully” to a place out of order, so Obama’s oath was not the correct version from the Constitution.

The two of them got together later in the day and “fixed” it by having Obama say the right words, in the right order.

Today Roberts was part of another flub, this time involving President Donald Trump.

He apparently rushed the oath, not allowing Melania Trump to approach the two and offer a Bible on which the president could his hand.

So Trump swore the oath without his hand in that position, which is not required by the Constitution.

Vivek Ramaswamy Is Out at DOGE

Many saw this break-up coming, though I’m not sure they expected it to happen so soon. Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy were supposed to be co-leads to head the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Given their profiles, both men were likely never to work together for long.

Yet, it sounds like Vivek won’t be part of the DOGE revolution, reportedly rubbing the rank-and-file the wrong way and unwilling to do the heavy lifting behind the scenes. Hence, why Donald Trump and others have been trying to create new opportunities for him, like pressing Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine to name him to fill JD Vance’s empty Senate seat (via CBS News):

Vivek Ramaswamy, President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) with entrepreneur Elon Musk, is expected to soon step away from the task force, CBS News has learned. Ramaswamy intends to announce a campaign for Ohio governor as soon as the end of January, multiple sources confirmed to CBS News.

Ramaswamy, 39, had no comment.

People close to Musk have privately undercut Ramaswamy for weeks, frustrated with his lack of participation in the heavy lifting, according to sources familiar with the internal dynamics. There has been friction between the incoming rank and file DOGE staff and Ramaswamy, the sources said, and Ramaswamy has been subtly encouraged to exit.

Jury Finds CNN Is Literally Fake News

CNN was found liable on Friday for defaming U.S. Navy veteran Zachary Young.

Following roughly eight hours of deliberations, jurors found CNN both “committed defamation per se” and “committed defamation by implication.”

Jurors awarded Young $4 million in economic damages and $1 million in emotional damages and agreed that punitive damages are warranted, prompting phase 2 of the trial. Punitive damages will be awarded to Young to dissuade CNN and other networks from doing what CNN did.

The case arose after CNN aired a segment in November of 2021 on “The Lead with Jake Tapper” that falsely framed Young as exploiting Afghans by offering evacuations from Afghanistan on a “black market.” A court later found Young did nothing illegal. Young alleged the segment “rendered Young permanently unemployable” because the use of the term “black market” in the chyron implied Young was engaged in illegal conduct — something his defense contracts expressly prohibited.

As Young testified — and as messages show — he informed CNN’s Katie Bo Lillis that rather than seeking money for evacuation costs directly from Afghans he was “focused on aligning corporate sponsors who have the resources to support with those afghans most in need.” Lillis pressed Young on his pricing model and further asked whether Young had ever successfully evacuated anyone. Notably, Young evacuated nearly two dozen Afghans, including a child, a fact that was conveniently left out of CNN’s report and digital story.

Alzheimer’s and Memory Issues Could Be Fended Off by Popular Food in Huge Discovery

Enjoying a particular type of cheese could be more beneficial than you might think, as fresh research indicates it may help fend off Alzheimer’s and cognitive deterioration, diseases that new research has shown can be predicted by certain dreams. Published in the reputable Neuroscience Research, the study points to Camembert as a potential enhancer of mental faculties.

Scientists observed that mice on a high-fat diet, typically linked to reduced cognitive abilities, experienced a boost in brain power when their diet included Camembert.

This enhancement was ascribed to myristate, a compound present in the cheese, which has been linked to supporting brain function and improving memory, whereas experts have pinpointed other foods that can enhance the chances of developing Alzheimer’s.

The presence of myristamide in Camembert appears to increase levels of a crucial protein for the brain named brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). This protein is integral to protecting the brain and nurturing synaptic development. Other studies, meanwhile, have found that a certain diet can also cut the chances of Alzheimer’s. . .

In this investigation, a dose of 10mg of myristamide for every kilogram of body weight “significantly improved cognitive performance” in mice. This was particularly evident in tasks involving the recognition of unfamiliar objects and locales, reports the Mirror.

Brutal Moment Karen Pence Snubbed Mike’s Kiss on Election Night With Six-Word Statement

Karen Pence, wife to former Vice President Mike Pence, reportedly refused to kiss her husband when the winning ballot was read, announcing Donald Trump as the next President.

In Michael Lewis’ new book about the 2016 election, the author explained that Pence leaned in for a kiss, and Karen refused to kiss him back, turning away from him. “You got what you wanted, Mike,” she said, according to Lewis, adding another curt retort, “Now leave me alone.”

According to Lewis, the campaign team was in complete shock on election night when Trump secured Pennsylvania, Karen included.

“She wouldn’t so much as say hello to Trump. Trump himself just stared at the TV without saying anything, like a man with a pair of twos whose bluff has been called. His campaign hadn’t even bothered to prepare an acceptance speech,” Lewis wrote.

Although Karen did not show affection toward her husband in that moment, she supported him throughout the race. “I would characterize her as the silent, omnipresent partner. You knew she was there, you knew there was some considerable influence she wielded, but, boy, she was not public about it,” Brian Howey, the publisher of a political newsletter, told the Washington Post.

Sean Davis Drops Stunning Details About the Butler Trump Assassination Attempt in Tucker Carlson Interview

Federalist CEO Sean Davis dropped some stunning details about the July 13 assassination attempt on Donald Trump’s life in a Friday conversation with Tucker Carlson on “The Tucker Carlson Show.”

The conversation explored how, six months after the shooting, despite a congressional investigation, little is known — or has been released — about the shooter, and the incident quickly fell out of the news cycle.

Davis began the interview by describing three critical things the American people need to know: the shooter’s background and motivations, how government agencies allowed the attempt to take place, and what happened to the people responsible for the security failures.

“I refuse to believe this was just a series of unfortunate accidents and incompetence,” Davis said after outlining a number of explanations for how the attempt took place. “It’s just not.”

Trump was shot in the ear by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, who stood on the roof of a building outside the secure area of the Trump campaign rally. Crooks was shot dead by law enforcement with a freakishly high-power weapon, a .300 Win Mag with a Hornady 210 grain hollow-point bullet.

State Speaker Bans Trump-Supporting GOP Senator, Has Him Arrested

Political differences, once again, have descended to physical blows as an “anti-Trump” Georgia House speaker banned a Trump-supporting senator from the House floor during a state of the state event, and he tried to enter anyway.

He was slammed to the floor by police and arrested.

Colton Moore, a Georgia state senator, had been banned from the House floor when he commented on the career, negatively, of the late House Speaker David Ralston.

He also had been dropped from the Senate Republican Caucus over his demands for a special legislative session to investigate Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who hired her paramour at the cost of $600,000 in tax money to create a failed organized crime case against President-elect Donald Trump.
