>>23265462 DELTA - EPSTEIN LIST

The "DELTA - EPSTEIN LIST" refers to a significant event or update within the QAnon narrative concerning an alleged list of individuals associated with Jeffrey Epstein. The term "DELTA" in this context generally indicates a notable update or development in the unfolding events, as seen in other "Delta" mentions in the sources regarding daily Q Post histories or military operations.

Here's a breakdown of the information provided in the sources regarding the Epstein List:

Date of "DELTA - EPSTEIN LIST": This specific "DELTA" is noted as occurring on July 2, 2020.

Alleged Contents of the List: Source provides an extensive list of names, presented as the "Epstein List," including:

Prominent Figures: Adam Perry Lang, Akon, Alan Dershowitz, Alec Baldwin, Alyssa Rogers, Anderson Cooper, Andrea Mitrovich, Andres Pastrana (Colombia President), Anthony Kiedis, Audrey Raimbault, Barack Obama, Ben Affleck, Beyoncé Knowles, Bill Clinton, Bill Hammond, Bill Murray, Brian Affleck, Caren Casey, Casey Wasserman, Charlie Sheen, Chelsea Handler, Cris Tucker, Chris Wagner, Chrissy Teigen, Cindy Lopez, Claire Hazel, Courtney Love, Dan Schneider, David Koch, David Yarovesky Yarvol, Demi Moore, Doug Band, Ed Tuttle, Ehud Barak, Ellen Spencer, Emmy Tayler Pleur, Perry Lang, Freya Wissing, Gary Roxburgh, Ghislaine Maxwell, Glen Rubin, Greg Holbert, Gwen Stefani, Gwendolyn Beck, Hank Coller, Heather Mann, Henry Rosovsky, James Franco, James Gunn, Jean Luc Brunel, Jean Michelle Gathy, Jeffrey Epstein, Jeffrey Jones, Jim Carrey, Jimmy Kimmel, Joe Pagino, John Cusack, John Legend, Juan Pablo Molyneux, Juliette Bryant, Justin Rolland Roiland, Kathy Griffin, Katy Perry, Katheryn Elizabeth Hudson, Kelly Spamm, Kevin Spacey, Kristy Rodgers, Larry Summers, Larry Visoski, Laura Wasserman, Laerence Krauss, Linda Pinto, Lisa Summers, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, Madonna Ciccone, Mandy Ellison, Marc Collins-Rector, Mark Epstein, Mark Lloyd, Marshall Mathers III, Melinda Luntz, Meryl Streep, Michelle Wolf, Naomi Campbell, Natalie Blachon de Perrier, Nicole Junkerman, Oliver Sachs, Oprah Winfrey, Paul Hala, Paul Mellon, Paula Epsteind, Peter Marino, Pharrell Williams, Quentin Tarantino, Ralpa Ellison, Ray Barzanna, Ricardo Legoretta, Robert Downey Jr., Rodney Slater, Ron Burke, Sandy Burger, Sarah Kellen, Seth Green, Shawn Carter, Shelley Harrison, Shelley Lewis, Sophie Biddle, Stefani Germanotta, Stephen Collins, Steven Colbert, Steven Spielberg, Steven Tyler, Svetlana Griaznova, Teala Davies, Tiffany Gramza, Tom Hanks, Tom Pritzker, Tyler Grasham, Victor Salva, Virginia Roberts, Wanda Sykes, Will Ferrell, Will Smith, Woody Allen.

Other speculated names include "Miss Graham and No Name" and Illinois Governor Pritzker.

The list is also generally associated with "child traffickers / human traffickers".

Status and Implications of the List:

There is a strong sentiment among some that the "Epstein list" should be released, with calls like "Release Epstein list or bust".

However, one source claims that the list is a "MOSSAD intelligence document" and "cannot be released without their permission," suggesting a deep level of protection and control.

It is alleged that the list is "worth trillions" and is used for "blackmailing everyone to do your bidding". Some believe "The Epstein list are now protected more than anyone in the USA".

The "Epstein list" is seen by some as a potential distraction from other geopolitical issues, specifically linked to "Israel and Mossad".

A direct statement from one source refutes the public disclosure of a "client list," noting that while Justice Department distributed binders marked "declassified" to "far-right influencers at the White House," "No 'client list' was disclosed, and there’s no evidence such a document exists".

The narrative that "Epstein didn't kill himself" is present, with speculation that he was "extracted and brought back to home base".

The potential for a "Laurel Canyon / Charlie Manson client book" is raised, questioning if it might be "bigger than the Anti-Semetic Epstein client book".

Related Allegations: The context of the Epstein List also includes discussions of tunnels under Epstein Island, and broader accusations of corruption, bribery, and "pay-to-play schemes" [previous turn].

>>23265258, >>23265290, >>23265344, >>23265360 PMQ'S PANTOMIME, AFTER YESTERDAYS BIG VOTE ON THE ATTACK ON THE DISABLED, Rachel Reeves

The phrase "PMQs Pantomime" refers to the Prime Minister's Questions (PMQs) in the UK Parliament, with the term "pantomime" suggesting that the proceedings are seen as a theatrical or insincere performance.

This "pantomime" is specifically linked to "yesterday's big vote on the attack on the disabled". According to the sources, this refers to a "Welfare reform Bill" in the UK Parliament which passed its second reading with 335 "ayes" to 260 "noes," winning by 75 votes.

Key aspects of this "attack on the disabled" include:

The bill is described as a "data collection and means testing on the most vulnerable".

It is alleged to be part of a broader agenda involving "asset grab, assisted dying and surveillance".

The reforms are expected to "exclude future pips claimants" (Personal Independence Payment, a disability benefit) and, after a review, will push those currently receiving support into poverty.

The source explicitly states that the UK government is "turning the u.k into a prison island of death" by attacking the "elderly, the children with the abortion bill and the disabled".

It's claimed that the media and politicians are using a narrative of "1000 a day" increase in PIP claimants without evidence to justify these changes.

There's a strong sentiment that the "pleading from those against the disability cuts is being ignored".

Rachel Reeves is prominently mentioned in connection with these events. She is described as the UK's "Health Secretary", though also referred to as a "terrible chancelor". She is characterized as a "rabid feminist and socialist/communist" and a "useful feminist idiot" who is allegedly being controlled by "banksters andrew baileys agenda and mansion house aka the corporation" to "do and say things".

During the PMQs, Rachel Reeves was observed to be under significant emotional distress. Sources describe her as "terrified" and looking "a mess," with "bags under the eye… due to crying". This emotional display during the PMQs was picked up by social media and "talking heads". The distress is linked to her job security, with comments that "Starmer refuses to guarantee her job" and that she "is gone, she knows it". While some express sympathy for her, others, like Jacob Rees-Mogg, also used the opportunity to call her a "terrible chancelor".

>>23265351, >>23265791, >>23265849 The Plot to Remove RFK Jr. We come with receipts.

The sources indicate a "Plot to Remove RFK Jr." from his position as US Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). This alleged plot is described as a "coup attempt against regulatory reform".

Key details from the sources regarding this plot include:

Leaked Memo: A "detailed secret trade-association memo" has reportedly leaked, outlining the scheme to remove RFK Jr.. This memo is attributed to "big pharma".

Objectives of the Plot: The scheme aims to "stop RFK" by various means:

Dividing "MAHA" (Make America Healthy Again).

Driving a wedge between MAGA and MAHA.

Funding "influencers among reputational conservatives".

Clearing the path for retaining power for those behind the plot.

Timeline and Funding: The plot aims to have RFK Jr. out of office by September and involves spending millions of dollars to achieve this goal.

"We Come with Receipts": The phrase "We come with receipts" is used in the context of exposing this plot, implying that evidence or proof of the scheme is available or being revealed.

RFK Jr.'s actions and policy positions as HHS Secretary, which may be motivating this alleged plot, include:

Announcing a major overhaul of HHS, including the planned termination of approximately 10,000 workers and reorganization of various divisions.

Pushing for his "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) agenda.

Freezing all US funding to GAVI, the Vaccine Alliance Group co-founded by Bill Gates, until the organization changes its response to vaccine safety issues.

Highlighting "terrible vaccines, dangerous food additives, horrible health effects from toxic food chemicals, along with corruption, bribery and pay-to-play schemes within the medical advisory system" within HHS.

His past stance that thimerosal was never tested for safety in humans.

Banning 10 "dangerous foods".

The broader context also notes that Democrats attempted to filibuster RFK Jr.'s speaking time in Congress, viewing it as a "circus", which could be seen as part of the opposition he faces.

>>23265310 California CANCELS July 4 events after ICE raids: 'They're canceling patriotism'

According to the sources, California has canceled its July 4th events following ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) raids. This action is described by some as "canceling patriotism".

Here's a breakdown of the context provided in the sources:

ICE Raids and Immigration Enforcement:

ICE has been conducting mass deportations and raids in Los Angeles and other areas. These operations are described as needing an "element of surprise" to prevent criminals from escaping.

DHS (Department of Homeland Security) officials have stated they are proactively working to secure the homeland by identifying and arresting suspected terrorists and violent extremists, acting on President Trump's mandate.

Notably, ICE has arrested Iranian nationals as part of these efforts. For example, 11 Iranian migrants, including suspected terrorists, were nabbed by ICE, with warnings of "possible sleeper" cells. In the past week, 130 Iranian nationals were arrested across the U.S. amid security concerns. A federal search warrant executed at a human smuggling hub in Los Angeles linked to national security threats resulted in the arrest of two individuals, following an earlier operation at the same location where seven Iranian nationals on the FBI Terror Watchlist were arrested. An Iranian sniper with an Islamic Republic of Iran Army identification card was also arrested in North Alabama.

The concept of "self-deportation" is mentioned, with observations of stores being "almost empty" in parts of California. This is further supported by the idea that things are "getting less crowded in Calif. as the illegals leave in mass," impacting emergency rooms, hospitals, supermarkets, and beaches.

A new ICE detention facility in Florida, referred to as "Alligator Alcatraz," has been approved and is set to open in early July 2025. President Trump views this facility as a symbol of fighting back against violence and criminality linked to open border policies.

Political Opposition and Response to ICE Actions:

Democrats are accused of coordinating efforts, such as warning illegals about ICE activity via apps like Waze and Google Maps. A new app called "ICEBlock" is highlighted, promoted by CNN, designed to allow users to report ICE sightings. The creator of this app reportedly compares deportation efforts to Nazi Germany. Secretary Noem of DHS states that they are working with the Department of Justice to prosecute CNN for "actively encouraging people to avoid law enforcement activities".

A Los Angeles County vice mayor, Cynthia Gonzalez of Cudahy, allegedly encouraged Mexican gangs to mobilize against ICE agents, calling them "the biggest gang there is" invading their territory. The FBI is investigating these comments, and her city distanced itself from her views.

There have been violent anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles and other major U.S. cities, with reports of "numerous high budget requests" for paid agitators, which a company called Crowds on Demand declined due to concerns about illegal activity. Democrats in the House voted against condemning these riots. The Los Angeles riots reportedly "vanished overnight" after the FBI and IRS launched an investigation into their funding.

California's leadership, including Governor Newsom, is criticized for "harboring millions of illegal aliens". California is facing a $12 billion deficit and is cutting back immigrants' access to healthcare. Former Democrat leader Gloria Romero explicitly links the cancellation of July 4th events to ICE raids and describes California as being "run by socialists and communists".

Broader Context of July 4th:

President Trump has pushed for his "ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL" to be passed before July 4th, envisioning it as a "wonderful Celebration for our Country". The Senate has advanced this bill and it has passed the Senate with a tie-breaking vote from JD Vance.

There are also warnings in the sources about a potential "bioweapons attack" on July 4th, possibly disguised as fireworks, which could result in mass casualties.

Some sources speculate if the non-participation of "Libs/Dems" in July 4th events is due to them potentially being "locked up/UNABLE to participate". The National Guard is in Washington D.C. for Fourth of July preparations.

The cancellation of July 4th events in California is presented within the context of ongoing immigration enforcement actions by ICE, the political opposition and protests against these actions, and a broader narrative of political conflict and shifting societal dynamics in the United States.

>>23265656 @realDonaldTrump “FBI blocked probe into alleged 2020 election plot by China because it would ‘contradict Director Wray’s testimony’ to Congress, docs show”

The query references a Truth Social post by Donald Trump stating that the FBI blocked a probe into alleged 2020 election plot by China because it would contradict Director Wray's testimony to Congress.

The sources contain information supporting this claim and provide additional context:

Allegations of Chinese Interference in the 2020 Election

The Oversight Project has submitted a criminal referral to the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI, seeking charges against former FBI Director Christopher Wray for allegedly misleading Congress and concealing evidence of Chinese interference in the 2020 election.

FBI Director Kash Patel announced that the bureau located an intelligence report from August 2020 detailing "alarming allegations" regarding an apparent Chinese Communist Party (CCP) plot to interfere in the presidential election for the benefit of then-candidate Joe Biden.

These allegations include the mass production of fake U.S. driver’s licenses by China to fraudulently cast mail-in ballots. Approximately 20,000 such counterfeit licenses were reportedly seized by Border Patrol on August 5, 2020.

The FBI allegedly suppressed an Intelligence Information Report (IIR) from the FBI’s Albany Field Office on September 25, 2020, which contained information from a Confidential Human Source (CHS) about this scheme.

The stated reason for halting the investigation and burying the IIR's existence was that "the reporting will contradict Director Wray’s testimony". This prevented other FBI field offices and intelligence community elements from accessing or studying the document.

According to Kash Patel and FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino, previous FBI leadership "chose to play politics and withhold key information from the American people," exposing the "weaponization of law enforcement for political purposes during the height of the 2020 election season".

The source material also suggests that the Chinese military runs thousands of social media accounts posing as Americans to destabilize the United States.

Christopher Wray's Testimony and the FBI's Actions

Christopher Wray is accused of making false and misleading statements to Congress.

In a September 2020 hearing, Wray testified that the FBI had "not seen historically any kind of coordinated national voter fraud effort in a major election whether it’s by mail or otherwise". He reiterated this in a March 2021 hearing, stating they were "not aware of any widespread evidence of voter fraud, much less that would have affected the outcome in the Presidential election".

Despite these statements, Nikki Floris, then-Deputy Assistant Director for Counterterrorism at the FBI, routinely briefed Wray on threats to the 2020 election integrity. The Oversight Project argues that Wray was "certainly aware" of the threats China posed to the U.S., including in relation to elections.

The Oversight Project believes there is "a reasonable basis to believe" that Wray’s conduct violated law, including Obstruction of Proceedings Before Congress, False Statements, and Perjury.

One perspective suggests that Wray's actions were part of a "game theory" scenario, where he was controlled by "Q" to "set the deep state / bad actors at FBI up" by allowing them to hide information, thereby exposing them in a deterministically proven crime.

Trump's Stance on the 2020 Election

President Trump has consistently stated that the 2020 election was "rigged and stolen," and that "we can't allow that to happen".

He has called for a "special prosecutor to investigate the 2020 election," believing it is the only way these crimes will be prosecuted due to "deep state agents still in power at the Justice Department".

Trump has also asserted that if the facts about Chinese interference were brought to light at the time, they would have "vindicated" his and former Attorney General Bill Barr's concerns, which were initially dismissed as "unfounded" and "preposterous".

Iran-linked hackers threaten to release new trove of emails stolen from Trump's inner circle after strikes

Iranian hackers are threatening to release a trove of 100GB of emails allegedly stolen from President Trump's team. This threat emerges in the wake of recent US and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.

Here are the key details from the sources:

The Threat of Release: Accounts, including General Flynn's, suggest that if this Iranian hacker group, believed to be backed by Iran, releases these emails, President Trump should consider pardoning Julian Assange and Edward Snowden. This is proposed because Assange and Snowden are said to possess information that could lead to numerous arrests. However, some sources express skepticism regarding the threat, noting that if the hackers genuinely had such emails, they would have already released them.

Context of Recent Strikes: The threat follows a period of heightened military activity in the Middle East.

On June 13, Israel launched attacks on Iranian nuclear and military facilities.

On June 22, the US joined the offensive, with President Trump ordering strikes by B-2 Spirit stealth bombers on three major Iranian nuclear sites: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan. Trump claimed these sites were "totally obliterated" and that the damage was "monumental".

Following these strikes, Iran reportedly retaliated by launching ballistic missiles at US bases in Qatar and Iraq on June 23. These attacks were characterized as "weak" and "expected" by President Trump, who stated that Iran provided "early notice" to minimize casualties, suggesting a "symbolic" response or a "choreographed chess move".

A ceasefire was announced between Israel and Iran, brokered by President Trump. However, the ceasefire's stability has been questioned, with both sides accusing each other of violations.

Previous Iranian Cyber Activities Against Trump's Circle: The sources detail a history of alleged Iranian cyber targeting of individuals associated with President Trump:

In December 2024, Kash Patel, Trump's pick for FBI director, was reportedly targeted by Iranian hackers.

Iranian hackers allegedly used a fake email account to impersonate Ginni Thomas to target Trump aides.

Roger Stone's personal email account was reportedly breached by suspected Iranian hackers as part of an effort to target the Trump campaign.

The US Department of Justice charged three individuals in September 2024 in an Iranian cyber-plot aimed at undermining the US election.

Broader Implications and Narratives:

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has warned of enhanced cyber and terror risks following the US strikes on Iran, noting the potential for low-level cyberattacks by pro-Iranian hacktivists and government-affiliated actors against US networks.

Some sources suggest that the cyber threats and military actions are part of a larger "psyop scam" or a "choreographed" scenario. This narrative posits that while appearing hawkish, Trump's actions might be a "surgical" removal of Israel's "last domino" for escalating conflict, or a way to dismantle the "illusion" of Iran's nuclear threat if it didn't truly exist.

There is an ongoing "war on leakers" by the White House, with the FBI investigating those who reportedly provided "bad intel" to media outlets like CNN and The New York Times, suggesting the strikes only caused limited damage to Iran's nuclear program, contradicting Trump's claims of "obliteration".

Secretary of State Marco Rubio criticized USAID's previous inefficiency, stating that only 12 cents of every dollar reached recipients, and that it failed to achieve US objectives, leading to its closure [Previous conversation]. This closure is mentioned in the context of the potential "14 million extra deaths" reported by CNN, linking it to various geopolitical events and warnings, including the ongoing "info warfare" [Previous conversation].

Concerns persist about "sleeper cells" from Iran potentially carrying out attacks, with 11 Iranian nationals, including suspected terrorists, reportedly arrested across the US.

Obama and Bush call Trump’s USAID closure a ‘travesty’ as report warns of 14 million extra deaths

Based on the provided sources and our conversation history, here's a comprehensive response to your query:

The sources indicate that President Donald Trump's administration has officially shut down the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), integrating its operations into the State Department. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced this move, stating that USAID's previous model was inefficient, with only 12 cents of every dollar reaching recipients, and that it had failed to achieve American objectives, often leading to worsened instability and increased anti-American sentiment globally. This closure is presented as a strategic shift towards an "America First" foreign assistance policy, aiming to align foreign aid strictly with U.S. national interests and to achieve "peace, security & prosperity". The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) conducted probes into USAID funding, leading to the cutting of billions of taxpayer dollars from spending programs.

Regarding the claim of 14 million extra deaths, the sources cite that "According to CNN, up to 14 MILLION of us will DIE within the next 5 years because President Trump is ending USAID". This figure appears in the context of perceived negative consequences of USAID's closure. However, this specific claim is met with skepticism within the sources, with one comment sarcastically stating, "zero is up to. CNN nails it again," implying it is an exaggerated or baseless projection. This concern about "up to 14 million" deaths was also mentioned previously in our conversation history in relation to Dr. David Martin's warnings, linking it to the ending of USAID [Previous conversation].

The sources also mention that "Bono Recites ‘Emotional’ Poem Mourning USAID Shutdown in Video with Bush & Obama". While the term "travesty" is not directly attributed to former Presidents Obama or Bush in reference to the USAID closure within these specific sources, their "mourning" of the shutdown implies a strong negative reaction to the decision. The word "travesty" itself is used elsewhere in the sources by President Trump in different contexts, such as criticizing the war in Ukraine or the legal proceedings against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

23264571 Almost 400 human corpses found piled high in mysterious house of horrors at US-Mexico border

A significant and disturbing discovery has been made at the US-Mexico border, specifically in Juarez, Mexico, across from El Paso, Texas. Authorities have found almost 400 human corpses piled high in a mysterious building, which has been described as a "house of horrors".

Key details regarding this discovery include:

Number and Condition of Remains: Nearly 400 corpses have been accounted for, comprising 383 complete human bodies and 6 partial remains. These bodies were found decomposing in stacks, and many appeared to have been embalmed.

Location and Duration: The remains were discovered in a non-descript building that resembled a home more than an incinerator. Some of the individuals are believed to have been deceased for three to four years.

Alleged Operations: The property is described as a "suspected secret crematorium". Investigators believe it was constantly receiving bodies for cremation, but instead, the owner and an employee allegedly misrepresented to funeral companies that bodies were being cremated, while instead piling them up.

Legal Action and Investigation: The owner, Jose Luis Arellano Cuaron, and an employee have been charged with improper disposal of bodies. Authorities are also checking the remains to determine if they are victims of murder, which could lead to further charges.

Connection to Missing Persons: This grim discovery has potentially offered closure to the families of hundreds of people who have gone missing in Ciudad Juárez, a city known for cartel violence. It is noted that many migrants awaiting legal entry into the US during the "Biden years" were reportedly kidnapped or went missing.

Operational Irregularities: Although the owner reportedly held three licenses at one point, the operation's standing was unclear. The governor of Chihuahua stated that "irresponsible and unscrupulous people" misused licenses and permits.

23264568, >>23264785 Paramount agrees to pay $16 million to settle Trump’s CBS ‘60 Minutes’ lawsuit

Paramount Global has agreed to pay $16 million to settle a lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump concerning a "60 Minutes" interview with Kamala Harris that he alleged was deceptively edited.

Here are the key details from the sources regarding this settlement and the underlying lawsuit:

The Lawsuit's Origin: President Trump filed a lawsuit against Paramount, the parent company of CBS News, initially seeking $10 billion, which was later increased to $20 billion, in damages. He alleged that the network committed "election interference" by "deceptively editing" a "60 Minutes" interview with then-Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris to make her "sound better" and "coherent and normal". Specifically, it was claimed that "60 Minutes" "spliced her nonsensical answer and replaced it with a completely separate sentence she said earlier in the interview".

Settlement Details:

Paramount agreed to pay $16 million upfront.

This payment is designated for Trump's future presidential library or charitable causes, with "no amount will be paid directly or indirectly to President Trump". It also covers legal fees and costs of the case.

The total sum could potentially "reach north of $30 million," with an expectation of a "mid-eight figures" allocation for advertisements, public service announcements, or other transmissions in support of conservative causes by the network.

The settlement includes a release of all claims regarding any CBS reporting through the date of the settlement, encompassing a "Texas action and the threatened defamation action".

Paramount did not offer an apology or express regret for CBS News' reporting or edits. CBS News Chief Executive Wendy McMahon reportedly left due to her unwillingness to issue an apology as part of any potential settlement.

As part of the agreement, CBS has agreed to update its editorial standards to "install a mandatory new rule": going forward, the network will "promptly release full, unedited transcripts of future presidential candidates’ interviews." This is referred to as the "Trump Rule".

Context and Implications:

The lawsuit had significant internal impact on Paramount, as it "roiled CBS News" and "spurred high-level departures". It also "hung over Paramount’s planned merger with Skydance Media".

Paramount leadership was concerned about settling without exposing directors and officers to "liability in potential future shareholder litigation or to criminal charges for bribing a public official." They hoped to minimize such liability by settling within the range of what other companies had paid to end litigation with Trump.

Other media and tech companies previously settled lawsuits with Trump, including Disney (paying $15 million to Trump's foundation/museum and $1 million in legal fees for a defamation suit against ABC News), Meta Platforms (paying $25 million for a 2021 lawsuit), and X (agreeing to pay about $10 million for a similar suit).

The settlement is presented as a "Great Victory" for Trump and the American people.

The situation is framed within a broader narrative of Trump's battles against "Fake News" and media outlets. Trump has consistently called for "FAKE NEWS REPORTERS FROM CNN & THE NEW YORK TIMES" to be "FIRED, IMMEDIATELY!!!".

23264490, >>23264616, >>23264636 Dr. David Martin warning about bioweapons attack on July 4th, 2025

According to the sources, Dr. David Martin is warning about a bioweapons attack on July 4th, 2025.

Key details from the sources about this warning include:

Predicted Casualties: Dr. Martin's warning suggests that 280,000 Americans could be killed and another 400,000 infected by the bioweapon agent. Another source, in the context of USAID ending, ominously mentions that "up to 14 MILLION of us will DIE within the next 5 years".

Method of Attack: The bioweapon attack is theorized to be spread in a way that might initially be perceived as fireworks. This aligns with a concern that patriotic gatherings on July 4th could be targeted with anthrax.

Alleged Perpetrators/Development: Dr. Martin reportedly emphasizes that veterinarians are the "weapons makers" for this bioweapon, as it is designed to affect both animals and humans. This connects to a previous "POTUS" statement, "First the cattle, and then you".

"National Blueprint for Biodefense": The alleged plot is linked to a "national blueprint for biodefense" and a table-top exercise for a bioweapon attack. This blueprint supposedly outlined a drill for a bio attack connected to Russians and Chinese, scheduled for July 4, 2025. Alex Jones is also cited as claiming to have a blueprint for a "second pandemic" intended to sabotage Donald Trump, set for release on July 4, 2025, also related to a bio attack linked to Russians and Chinese.

Skepticism/Counter-Narratives: Some sources within the provided material dismiss Dr. Martin's warnings as "fear mongering" and accuse him of suggesting that "Trump and team are doing nothing". One user claims to have enough Ivermectin to protect their family and a "three block radius" from such an attack.

Timing and "The Prophecy": The date of July 4th, 2025, is framed within a broader narrative of significant events and a "prophecy," with countdowns and references to Q drops. Specifically, there's discussion about "the end of the 2+6 year period" and a potential series of "POTUS" posts at 12:01 AM, 12:02 AM, 12:03 AM, and 12:04 AM on July 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, 2025, respectively, signaling a major culmination.

Related Incidents and Warnings:

A massive explosion destroyed a fireworks factory in Esparto, California, on June 24, 2025 [4474 in query, 546].

There's also a mention of "Tatsuki's dreams" predicting a massive fissure and tsunami destroying Japan on July 5, 2025.

Warnings about a "fake pandemic, toxic vaccine genocide" from December 27, 2019, where Covid was described as "chemical sabotage" rather than a virus, are highlighted in the context of this ongoing "info warfare".

>>23264359 NEW: Heavily redacted @FBI emails 2020 election released via @ChuckGrassley @FBIDirectorKash

Heavily redacted emails from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) concerning alleged Chinese interference in the 2020 election have been released through Senator Chuck Grassley and FBI Director Kash Patel.

Key details from the sources regarding these emails and related investigations include:

Content of the Emails: The emails reveal that FBI Headquarters (HQ) interfered with an investigation by the Albany, New York Field Office into alleged Chinese interference in the 2020 election.

Purpose of Interference: This interference was reportedly designed to shield then-FBI Director Christopher Wray from potential political repercussions stemming from his Congressional testimony. The emails suggest that FBI HQ's focus was on "optics, not fact finding," particularly in the two months leading up to the election.

Contradictory Information: A significant piece of information within the emails (from page 23 of the shared document) indicates that "the reporting will contradict Director Wray’s testimony". This refers to an FD-1023, a form used to record information from confidential human sources.

Allegations of Chinese Interference: The intelligence report from August 2020 detailed "alarming allegations" of a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) plot to interfere in the presidential election by manufacturing "tens of thousands" of fake US driver’s licenses to fraudulently cast mail-in ballots for then-candidate Joe Biden.

Seized Counterfeit Licenses: As part of this alleged scheme, approximately 20,000 counterfeit driver’s licenses were reportedly seized by Border Patrol on August 5, 2020.

FBI Leadership's Actions: Current FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino stated that "previous FBI leadership chose to play politics and withhold key information from the American people," which they view as weaponizing law enforcement for political purposes during the 2020 election season.

Criminal Referral: The Oversight Project has submitted a criminal referral to the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI, requesting an investigation into former FBI Director Wray for allegedly making false and misleading statements to Congress. Wray's statements to Congress in September 2020 and March 2021 claimed there was no "coordinated national voter fraud effort" or "widespread evidence of voter fraud" that would have affected the election outcome.

Transparency Efforts: Kash Patel has publicly stated that his aim is to "restor[e] trust — through transparency, not politics".

>>23264373 A New York driving school paid off DMV employees TO GIVE ILLEGALS DRIVERS LICENSES, “even if they have no clue how to drive”

The sources indicate that a New York driving school paid off Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) employees to issue driver's licenses to illegal immigrants, even if they had no driving skills.

Further details from the sources about this incident reveal:

The driving school enabled individuals to bypass the testing process entirely.

It involved a "corrupt network" that included both government employees and individuals at the driving school.

Imposters took tests on behalf of unqualified (illegal) applicants.

The situation was described as resulting from "corruption, greed, theft, and thievery".

This incident is part of a broader discussion in the sources regarding illegal immigration and alleged fraudulent activities:

Identity Theft and Fraudulent Benefits: There are claims of widespread fraud where illegal immigrants allegedly exploit systems, such as using stolen Social Security numbers and identities to obtain wages, health benefits, and employment authorization, causing "devastating financial, emotional, and legal consequences" for over 100 American victims. This includes instances where disabled Americans struggled to receive benefits, individuals were denied prescriptions, and nursing students lost tuition assistance.

College Admissions Fraud: In California, it was reported that 31% of community college applications (1.2 million) were likely fraudulent, with "ghost students" and AI scammers stealing tens of millions in federal aid by enrolling and withdrawing after receiving financial aid checks. This was attributed to administrators and the state department of education, not immigrants, though the context is related to immigration discussions. The Department of Justice is also suing Minnesota for laws that provide free or reduced tuition rates to illegal aliens, arguing it unconstitutionally discriminates against out-of-state U.S. citizens.

Efforts to Aid/Protect Illegal Immigrants:

Democrats are accused of coordinating "icy road" conditions on Waze and Google Maps to warn illegal immigrants about ICE presence.

A California NGO is reported to be delivering food and covering rent for thousands of illegal immigrants in cities like Compton and Long Beach so they can avoid leaving home during ICE raids and risk of arrest.

The Denver City Council unanimously voted to shut down a car theft tracking system over concerns that ICE could use its data to deport illegal immigrants, despite the system's success in recovering stolen cars and aiding criminal investigations.

Los Angeles is reportedly pushing for "free rent" for illegal families to prevent them from needing to work and avoid ICE mass deportations.

The Senate rejected a measure to remove Medicaid benefits for illegal aliens (a provision in the "Big Beautiful Bill"), with 160 Democrats voting against a bill to deport illegal aliens caught drunk driving. It was noted that 1.4 million illegal immigrants could be removed from Medicaid if the bill passed.

Judicial Resistance to Deportation: A district judge reportedly stated he would openly defy a Supreme Court ruling to continue blocking the expulsion of illegal aliens convicted of child rape and murder. There was also a report of a judge agreeing to delay the release of an MS-13 gang member so he wouldn't be deported.

International Parallels: Russian lawmakers have proposed expanding driverless taxis to replace migrant drivers, citing illegal work and increased crime.

These incidents collectively highlight concerns within the sources about how current laws and policies regarding illegal immigrants are perceived to be exploited or circumvented, impacting various sectors including education, public safety, and public services.

>>23265682 Pentagon halts weapons supplies to Kiev

The Pentagon has halted some weapons shipments to Ukraine (Kiev) due to concerns about dwindling U.S. munitions stockpiles. This decision was reportedly driven by an internal review conducted by Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, which indicated dangerously low reserves. The stated rationale for this halt is to "put America’s interests first", reflecting a broader policy realignment under the Trump administration, which has questioned the rationale behind "endless aid" to Ukraine.

Key details regarding this halt include:

Weapons Affected: The suspension affects several categories of U.S.-made weapons, including Patriot missile interceptors, 155mm artillery shells, Stinger and AIM air-to-air missiles, and hundreds of Hellfire and GMLRS systems.

Timing: The initial decision to withhold aid, which was promised during the Biden administration, came in early June but is now taking effect. Some weapons that were already staged in Poland have been withheld and will not be provided to Ukrainian forces.

Funding: The halted weapons were funded under the previous administration through direct drawdowns from existing U.S. military stockpiles and the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI). The Trump administration has not requested any additional aid for Kiev, and existing resources are expected to last only "several more months".

Justification: White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly defended the move, stating it was a necessary step to prioritize American defense needs and emphasizing that "The strength of the United States Armed Forces remains unquestioned — just ask Iran".

Reactions and Implications:

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has expressed frustration over the perceived dwindling support from Washington. During a meeting with Trump at the NATO summit, Zelensky did not receive firm promises regarding aid. Trump reportedly told Zelensky that Patriot systems were "very hard to get" and that the U.S. needed them for its own defense and for Israel.

The decision to freeze or slow-walk aid without formal congressional notice may raise legal concerns, similar to a 2019 instance under Trump's first administration that the Government Accountability Office ruled unlawful.

Russian presidential envoy Kirill Dmitriev noted that the move "highlights the real limits of Western capacity and the shifting priorities of the US military".

This halt comes as Ukraine is facing "largest Russian barrages of missiles and drones" and Russia's "Summer offensive has begun with over 5k drones and 60 missiles in the last week or so".

The broader context suggests Ukraine's economy is "on the brink of collapse" due to decreased Western aid and stalled peace efforts, with Russian President Vladimir Putin claiming Ukraine would collapse within weeks without continued Western military and financial support.

This policy shift is seen by some as a positive development within the sources, with comments like "Finally".

The context of the NATO summit reveals that some members, like Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, are also opposing Ukraine's EU accession, citing a national vote and concerns that membership would drag the West into direct conflict with Russia.

>>23279070, >>23279084 Archives are important

The archives are considered vitally important within the provided sources for multiple reasons, serving as a foundational element for understanding past events, tracking ongoing operations, and preparing for future developments.

Here's a comprehensive breakdown of their importance:

* Preservation of Truth and Proofs: The archives contain "the truth" and "proofs" that are deemed essential for the "Great Awakening". It is stated that "nothing is random" and "everything has meaning" in these records. The statement "The world cannot swallow the truth" implies that the truth, preserved in these archives, needs to be revealed.

* Historical Documentation and Accountability: The sources emphasize that "this will be remembered and highlighted more in the Future" and that "there will be no escape from WHO did WHAT during these perilous moments in our History". This includes the assertion that "none of this Traitor shit will be forgotten and all will be repaid in kind for what they DID and DID NOT do". The significant number of "sealed indictments" that remain unsealed, awaiting President Trump's second term, also highlights the role of archives in future accountability.

* Strategic Guidance and Prediction: A recurring theme is "Future proves past" and "News unlocks map". The archives function as a "map" and "guide" to discern "direction" and the "full picture" of events, helping to understand and plan for "operations underway". They contain clues, and knowing how to "re-review the map post relevant news drops" is crucial.

* Combating Disinformation and Narrative Control: Archives are presented as a tool to "distinguish between relevant/non-relevant news" in an environment of "disinformation" and "mind warfare" where "up is down, left is right". They allow individuals to counter "fake news" and observe others "btfo themselves" by referencing verifiable past information.

* Source of Knowledge and Power: Directly stated is the belief that "Information is knowledge. Knowledge is power. Information is power". The archives are framed as "the biggest intel drop in our known history", providing the raw data from which this power is derived.

* Community Research and Analysis: The structure of the Q Research Board frequently points to various archives and aggregators (e.g., qanon.pub, qanon.app, qanon.news, qalerts.app, qresear.ch, qnotables.com, qproofs.com, 8kun.top/qresearch) as central resources for "Anons" (anonymous users) to conduct their research, "bake" (decode information), and identify patterns or "deltas" in Q posts over time. They also provide context for interpreting cryptic messages or "bread crumbs" left by Q. It is noted that "the archive is deep".

* Warning and Awareness: Historical records serve as a warning ("Future answers past") and a call to be "awake" and "prepared" for ongoing "mind warfare". They highlight patterns and potential future events, such as warnings about July 4th that some believed were overlooked in the context of "weather warfare" (as mentioned in our conversation history).The archives are considered vitally important within the provided sources for multiple reasons, serving as a foundational element for understanding past events, tracking ongoing operations, and preparing for future developments.

How do we arm ourselves with to fight this?

Based on the provided sources and our conversation history, arming oneself to "fight this" involves a multi-faceted approach, encompassing information warfare, spiritual and mental fortitude, and engagement in political and legal battles. While the "Q Research General" states its participants "neither need nor condone the use of force in our work here", other posts suggest a more aggressive, yet still lawful, stance against perceived enemies.

Here's how one can "arm" themselves according to the sources:

Information and Knowledge as Primary Weapons:

Engage in Open-Source Research: Participants are described as "researchers who deal in open-source information, reasoned argument, and dank memes". The archives themselves are crucial for this, containing "the truth" and "proofs" [our conversation history].

Fight the Information War: The overall conflict is frequently described as an "information war". You are urged to "DISPUTE [REJECT] PROPAGANDA PUSH THROUGH POSTING OF RESEARCH AND FACTS".

Utilize Memes: "Drop the memes". Memes are viewed as a powerful tool in this war, with one post claiming, "WE'VE WON THE MEME WAR!!!!!! THE LEFT CAN'T MEME" and another stating, "WE'VE WON THE INFORMATION WAR". Memes are even described as "missiles".

Control the Narrative: "INFORMATION IS KNOWLEDGE. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. INFORMATION IS POWER". It's vital to have "CONTROL OF MESSAGE" and ensure "DELIVERY / RECEIPT OF MESSAGE" to counter "MAJOR PLAYERS HERE TO DISTRACT, CREATE DOUBT, AND ALTER THE DIRECTION".

Speaking Out and Being Heard:

Be Loud, Have a Voice: "BE LOUD - YOU HAVE A VOICE". There's a call to "DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY DEMAND TRANSPARENCY".

"Fight, Fight, Fight": This phrase is a consistent rallying cry throughout the sources. It's framed as a "lawful fight".

"Digital Soldiers" Missions: Missions include "DISPUTE [REJECT] PROPAGANDA PUSH THROUGH POSTING OF RESEARCH AND FACTS", "SUPPORT ROLE OF OTHER DIGITAL SOLDIERS", and "GUIDE [AWAKEN] OTHERS THROUGH USE OF FACTS" and "MEMES".

Mental and Spiritual Fortitude:

Defend Your Mind: "OUR BATTLE IS NO LONGER JUST WITH WEAPONS, BUT WITH THE NUMBING OF MINDS". It is acknowledged that "our minds are under an unprecedented level of attack".

Emancipate from Mental Slavery: "EMANCIPATE YOURSELVES FROM MENTAL SLAVERY. NONE BUT OURSELVES CAN FREE OUR MINDS".

Prayer: "IF YOU ARE RELIGIOUS, PRAY". Calls to "PRAY FOR STRENGTH. PRAY FOR GUIDANCE. PRAY FOR AMERICA". The instruction "DIG MEME PRAY" is given.

Unity and Standing Strong: "STAY UNITED. STAY TOGETHER. STAY STRONG". "DIVIDED YOU ARE WEAK. TOGETHER YOU ARE STRONG".

Political and Legal Engagement:

Vote: "VOTE THEM ALL OUT".

Demand Accountability: There's a strong sentiment to "ARREST THOSE IN GOVERNMENT THAT HAVE COMMITTED CRIMES" and to address "DOMESTIC ENEMIES".

Uphold Rights: Fight for "GOD GIVEN RIGHT[S]". Emphasize the Constitution and Bill of Rights as foundational. The "right to use necessary force against cops making an unlawful arrest" is cited as a recognized right.

Challenge Corrupt Systems: The goal is to "ABOLISH THE CURRENT SYSTEM" because it is perceived as "corrupt and dirty".

In summary, the primary "armament" advocated by the sources is the active pursuit and dissemination of truth and information, combined with collective action, unwavering mental and spiritual strength, and active participation in the political and legal spheres to restore the country to its perceived rightful state.

>>23282933 Trump is right about everything: 78 out of 79 'professional' job market forecasters proven wrong

The statement you've provided, "Trump is right about everything: 78 out of 79 'professional' job market forecasters proven wrong", refers to a claim circulating within the sources regarding President Donald Trump's economic policies and their outcomes. This particular statement is presented alongside a YouTube embed, implying it is a summary or a direct quote from the content of that video.

Here's a comprehensive overview from the sources regarding this claim:

Arguments Supporting Trump's Economic Acumen and Proven Forecasts Wrong:

* Job Market Performance:

* In June, the U.S. economy reportedly added 147,000 jobs, which was "much higher than expected". This growth reportedly defied predictions of sluggishness in the labor market following the implementation of President Trump's tariffs.

* It is specifically highlighted that all net job gains since President Trump took office have gone to American-born workers. Conversely, foreign-born employment reportedly declined by 543,000 since January, while native-born employment increased by 2,079,000.

* The private sector added 74,000 jobs, and the public sector added 73,000, while federal government employment decreased by 7,000 in June.

* President Trump himself announced on Truth Social, "Economy Adds 147K Jobs".

* A post notes that "78 of 79 surveyed economists initially predicted fewer than the actual 147,000 new jobs added in June," suggesting that Trump's economic policies proved professional forecasters wrong.

* Tariffs and Trade Deals:

* A prominent Wall Street economist, who had previously criticized Trump's tariffs, reportedly admitted that President Trump "may have outsmarted all of us" with his trade policies. These tariffs are seen as a "masterstroke" that could force global partners to the negotiating table and generate billions for the Treasury.

* It is stated that "hundreds of Billions of Dollars in Tariffs are filling up the coffers of Treasury. The Tariff money has already arrived and is setting new records!".

* Trump announced a new trade agreement with China, though the full text and details were not public at the time.

* Canada reportedly rescinded its digital services tax on American companies, which was seen as a "big win" for Trump and had previously "roiled trade talks".

* Trump also announced a trade deal with Vietnam, where Vietnam agreed to a 20% tariff on goods and 40% on transshipping, in exchange for total access to their markets for U.S. products at zero tariff.

* Overall Economic Conditions and Achievements:

* Hegseth stated that President Trump's accomplishment of 32 nations pledging 5% of their GDP to NATO is "historic".

* Trump claims the economy is "booming".

* The "Golden Age of America is upon us," with the economy "roaring, incomes soaring, wages up, prices down, inflation dead, 401[k]s and retirement accounts just hit an all-time record high".

* America is now the "HOTTEST NATION IN THE WORLD!".

* Trump also claimed to have brought the price of eggs back to "inexpensive" levels.

* The "One Big Beautiful Bill" (BBB) is described by Trump as "perhaps the greatest and most important of its kind in history," promising "the largest Tax Cuts and Border Security ever, Jobs by the Millions, Military/Vets increases, and so much more". It is stated that it will cut $1.5 trillion in spending and deliver the "strongest border on Earth, the strongest economy on Earth, the strongest military on Earth". The bill also reportedly kicks illegal aliens off of Medicaid and food stamps and allows for hiring new Border Patrol and ICE agents for a large deportation operation.

* Trump's second term, particularly the "past 12 days," is characterized as having seen "some of the most consequential decisions in American history".

>>1360

* General Praise for Trump's Intelligence and Effectiveness:

* Former CNN host Van Jones reportedly stated that "Donald Trump is smarter than all of us" and is "the most powerful human being walking on this planet," receiving backlash from Democrats for this admission.

* Trump is described as "excellent at baiting, trapping, bluffing and bullying".

* He is portrayed as a "genius ahead of his time" in understanding finances and exposing "scams" in trade negotiations.

* Some believe Trump's actions are part of "The Plan".

Counter-Arguments and Criticisms:

* Doubts about Economic Claims:

* One source questions if Trump "exaggerated when he said the attack he ordered 'obliterated' the nuclear sites in Iran," suggesting they were "at most, set back a couple weeks/months".

* An anon states that despite Trump's claims, gas and food prices are still high, and they "can't get a job," with DEI hiring practices still enforced and more taxes/regulations.

* Another individual, presumably Elon Musk, is quoted as saying Trump's "big, beautiful bill" will "increase debt by trillions" and be "bad for America," leading to "debt slavery" and "destroy millions of jobs".

* A CBO report is cited, stating that the US Senate version of Trump's tax-cut bill would add $3.3 trillion to the national debt.

* Some sources express skepticism about Trump's claims of success, with one stating, "If you can not see Trump was ranting this week, you do not know the meaning of rant or you willfully choose to turn a blind eye to it".

* Concerns are raised about Trump's consistent claims of winning without tangible improvements for some supporters.

* Concerns about Trump's Character and Authenticity:

* Some anonymous users question whether they are seeing the "REAL trump" or a "short fat latex masked khazarian mafia PUPPET trump".

* Trump is described by some as having the "vocabulary of an 8 year old," being "inarticulate," a "total narcissist and basically dumb".

* One comment suggests that Trump "is a conman, always have been".

* Another critic suggests Trump is "fucking MAGA up the ass" and that Republicans are "yelling HARDER".

* It is suggested that "Trump is bought by the Rothschilds" and was "saved" by Wilbur Ross.

In summary, the statement that "Trump is right about everything: 78 out of 79 'professional' job market forecasters proven wrong" is strongly supported by various claims within the sources regarding economic growth, job creation, and the effectiveness of tariffs during Trump's administration. However, there are also dissenting voices and criticisms questioning the accuracy of these claims and Trump's overall performance.

Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene announced a new bill aimed at stopping weather modification.

Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has introduced a new bill aimed at prohibiting weather modification and geoengineering practices.

Here are the key details and contexts from the sources regarding her proposed legislation:

Bill's Purpose and Provisions:

Greene announced that she is introducing a bill that would "prohibit the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity".

Such acts would be deemed a felony offense.

The proposed legislation specifically targets both private and government efforts to manipulate the climate through artificial means.

It aims to outlaw geoengineering practices, including controversial programs linked to solar radiation management and cloud seeding.

Greene has stated she has been "researching weather modification and working with the legislative counsel for months writing this bill".

The bill is expected to be similar to Florida’s Senate Bill 56.

Motivation and Context (Perceived Weather Warfare):

Greene's move comes amidst discussions and concerns within the sources about "weather warfare" and unusual weather events, particularly recent devastating floods in Texas.

Some sources suggest that the rapid rainfall in Texas seemed abnormal and could be attributed to cloud seeding and weather modification, with one anonymous user noting that flying over the state, "one could see large dark clouds on top of the thunderstorms" which "could have been an effort to generate a hurricane".

There are claims of "microwave pulse anomalies detected over Central Texas 48 hours before the storm" and satellite records being "scrubbed from NOAA servers".

A company called "Rainmaker," led by Augustus Doricko, a "next generation cloud seeding company," is mentioned as a "prime suspect" for investigation into the Texas floods. However, Doricko has denied that Rainmaker conducted any operations that impacted the floods, stating their last seeding mission in that area was over 24 hours prior to the flooding rainfall.

One user comments that "the fact that POTUS has not stopped the weather warfare operations and remains silent about them is depressing," suggesting that "patriots are not yet in full control of the military and deep state".

The notion that "weather control has blatantly been used for good as well as evil" is also present, and that "radomes strategically located do most of the heavy lifting" in weather control, not just spraying.

Reactions and Criticisms:

One anonymous user expressed skepticism about the bill's success, stating, "Her introducing it guarantees the bill's failure. Controlled op 101".

Another user questioned the broad wording of the bill, asking if it would make common actions like spraying a garden hose to cool off a felony, and advocating for an end to "geoengineering" but not such everyday uses of water.

A post on X (formerly Twitter) from "Harry Sisson" calls a Republican Congressional candidate from Georgia (implicitly MTG given the context) "deranged" for calling the tragic flooding in Texas "fake" despite having "Christian" and "Jesus" in her bio, leading to "a total loss for words".

Julio César Chávez Jr., a well-known Mexican boxer, was arrested in California for staying in the U.S. after his visa expired and for giving false information on a green card application.

Julio César Chávez Jr., a well-known Mexican boxer, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. He is currently facing "expedited removal" from the United States and is expected to be deported.

According to the sources:

Chávez Jr. once held the WBC middleweight title.

He is described as a "Sinaloa Cartel affiliate" who is "wanted in Mexico on organized crime charges".

One perspective suggests he "was hiding in America to void arrest in Mexico".

There was speculation within the sources regarding the timing of his arrest, with some questioning why he was not apprehended before his fight with Jake Paul, implying potential "favoritism" or "nonsense" in the justice system.

While the sources confirm his arrest by ICE and his impending deportation due to his affiliation with the Sinaloa Cartel and outstanding charges in Mexico, they do not explicitly state that his arrest was "for staying in the U.S. after his visa expired and for giving false information on a green card application". However, "expedited removal" is an immigration enforcement procedure often linked to such violations.

>>23284449, >>23284469 “26 Feet In 45 Minutes”: Rep. Chip Roy On Texas Flood Devastation And Official Response

The severe flooding in Texas, specifically in the Hill Country region, is a significant topic within the provided sources, particularly highlighted by the rapid water rise of "26 Feet In 45 Minutes". This detail was mentioned by Rep. Chip Roy at a press conference concerning the devastation.

Here's a comprehensive overview from the sources regarding the Texas floods:

Severity and Impact:

The flooding occurred around the Fourth of July weekend in 2025, primarily affecting Kerr County.

A "biblical flood" saw a foot of rain fall in just two hours, turning residential streets into a "raging whitewater river" and inundating campgrounds, businesses, and homes.

The Guadalupe River surged 30 feet over normal levels. One official noted that the water went up 26 to 30 feet high.

The death toll has been reported as at least 24, rising to at least 32 with 5-10 inches of rain over three hours on July 4, then at least 51 dead with 27 girls missing, and eventually reaching at least 66 fatalities. Many more are still missing.

A particularly tragic aspect is the number of missing children, including "23 young girls, ages 7–17, swept away from Camp Mystic," a Christian summer camp in Hunt, Texas, which has historically been attended by daughters of Texas' political elite.

The long-time co-executive director and co-owner of Camp Mystic, Dick Eastland, died after being swept away by rushing water while attempting to rescue girls from his camp; his wife was found safe.

Response Efforts:

President Donald Trump signed a "Major Disaster Declaration for Kerr County, Texas," to ensure resources for first responders.

The Trump administration is actively "working with State and Local Officials" on the ground.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem was on the ground with Governor Greg Abbott.

The U.S. Coast Guard, together with State First Responders, rescued over 850 lives.

US Army soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division performed 240 water rescues, saving 50 people from "certain death".

Acting Texas Gov LTG Dan Patrick's press conference also detailed the deployment of 400-500 search and rescue personnel, 14 helicopters, and 11 drones.

Theories and Controversies Surrounding the Flood:

Some sources and users suggest the event was a "weather warfare attack" or "weather modification".

"Independent meteorologists warned about microwave pulse anomalies detected over Central Texas 48 hours before the storm," and "Satellites showed unnatural spiral cloud formations".

Crucially, these "satellite records" were reportedly "Scrubbed from NOAA servers".

A "pulse" captured on radar encompassing the entire Gulf of America was also noted as "very odd".

Augustus Doricko, CEO of "Rainmaker," a cloud seeding company, publicly denied that his company conducted any operations that could have impacted the floods on July 3rd or 4th, stating their last seeding mission was on July 2nd.

A user suggested the rapid water rise might indicate a "dam burst somewhere that isn't yet being revealed".

There's speculation that the flooding could be linked to a "land grab" necessary for the construction of a new $175 million natural gas power plant recently approved in Kerrville.

One source highlighted that "four of the worst floods in recent Guadalupe River history have occurred in July," including a 1987 flash flood where a bus of children was swept away, resulting in 10 deaths.

It is suggested that "this is not chaos, it is choreography".

Disturbing Incident:

"White Hats" (a term referring to individuals working against the perceived "Deep State") suspect that "imposters posing as federal agents" abducted or killed missing persons.

A restaurant manager reported seeing "eight masked men wearing ICE and FEMA jackets corralling 14 men, women, and children into a Dickey’s barbeque restaurant". These individuals were described as "Caucasian and definitely not illegal aliens".

Soldiers found the restaurant "dark, deserted, and lifeless, except for streaks of fresh blood and what appeared to be a human kidney on the floor".

DHS confirmed that no federal forces from FEMA or DHS were active in Kerr County at the time, leading to the conclusion that "Something evil is happening here".

>>23284145 Abolish property tax? Why pay rent to the government to live on your own property?

The query regarding the abolition of property tax and the sentiment of "paying rent to the government to live on your own property" is directly addressed in the provided sources.

Arguments and sentiments found in the sources regarding property tax and broader taxation include:

Abolishing Property Taxes: President Trump's call to abolish property taxes nationwide is presented as a "strategically sound and economically transformative proposal" that could "redefine American homeownership, dismantle fiscal feudalism, and ignite a new era of wealth accumulation for the middle class". One user expressed hope that this proposal would allow families to pass on property to their children and grandchildren without inheritance taxes.

"Paying Rent to the Government": The sentiment "Why pay rent to the government to live on your own property?" is echoed by questions from figures like DeSantis, who asks: "You buy a home, you buy land… and then, you've been taxed many times [on that]… is it your property, or NOT? Just for being on your property, you've got to write a check to the government every year?". This highlights the perception that property taxes undermine true ownership.

Personal Experiences of Burden: A user shared a personal account of nearly losing their paid-off home due to unpaid property taxes, which would have been acquired by someone who paid the overdue taxes, illustrating the perceived "corrupt policy". Another user mentioned being under California's Proposition 13, which limits tax increases to 2% annually, but still views the property tax as a "BURDEN".

Redefining Real Estate: Some users advocate for ending property and assessment taxes, arguing that real estate should fundamentally be a "place to live NOT A FUCKING INVESTMENT". This view suggests a desire to return to a more basic understanding of homeownership, free from what is seen as government-imposed "rent."

Calls for Complete Tax Abolition: Broader calls within the sources advocate for "NO more taxes, property taxes, income taxes, or even sales tax". The idea is that such an abolition would allow Americans to "finally get ahead".

Alternative Funding for Government: It is suggested that the government, if taxes were abolished, should instead "ask for donations if it wants to stay in business, like churches or non profits".

Targeting Government Employees and Corporations for Taxes: Some propose that only "Corporations, state and federal employees, should pay property tax, income tax, sales tax, not the people". This is believed to be a way for Americans to "finally get ahead".

Opposition to the Current System: The sources contain strong anti-tax sentiments, with statements like "Taxes are theft", and "nothing is more fraudulent and wasteful than government". The current system is criticized as one where the people are "forced to live, day to day, and week to week," while "DC, bureaucrats and government worms cash in with 6 and 7 figure salaries".

Connection to Rights and Constitution: The broader discussion links taxation to fundamental rights. An article emphasizes that "our rights come from God, not government" and that when government claims the right to determine who deserves rights, "no one is safe". The idea that taxes are a means by which "government parasites" hate freedom and "will kill you with your own taxes" is also expressed.

The "Big Beautiful Bill" (BBB): This bill, supported by President Trump, is associated with "Largest Tax Cuts in History". The sources indicate that tax cuts are a significant component of the BBB, with one post stating that Democrats oppose it because "They actually believe that money belongs to them, not to us". The bill is also framed as addressing the issue of "waste & graft". However, some critics argue that the bill is a "monstrosity" and that genuine reform would involve simply ending taxes and abolishing the Federal Reserve entirely. It's noted that a Senate parliamentarian ruled out certain Medicaid changes in the "big, beautiful bill". Additionally, some suggest the bill's aim to remove funding for federal contempt of court orders and illegal immigrants enables "abuses of power by the President".

>>23284141, >>23284577 Chicago shootings: At least 50 people shot, 6 fatally, in 4th of July weekend gun violence, CPD says

According to the sources, during the Fourth of July weekend, specifically from the morning of Thursday, July 3, until the evening of Sunday, July 6, at least 50 people were shot, with 6 fatalities, in Chicago due to gun violence, as reported by the Chicago Police Department (CPD).

One specific fatal incident mentioned involved a 46-year-old man who was shot to death in his vehicle on the North Side of the city on Saturday morning. This occurred in the Cabrini-Green neighborhood's 800-block of North Cambridge Avenue. The victim was struck in the back and pronounced dead at the scene. The shooter reportedly fled in a dark-colored vehicle, and one person of interest is currently in custody.

In response to this, one user in the sources describes Chicago as a "literal War Zone".

>>23284117 US military cuts climate scientists off from vital satellite sea-ice data

The U.S. military is enacting measures that will cut off climate scientists from vital satellite sea-ice data. This action is described as part of the U.S. government's broader "attacks on science and the funding of scientific research," ostensibly aimed at slashing the budget to enable tax cuts.

Here's a detailed breakdown of the situation:

Affected Data and Agencies:

Scientists at the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC), located at the University of Colorado, Boulder, will lose access to data from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS).

The SSMIS instrument is flown on satellites that are part of the United States Air Force Defense Meteorological Satellite Program.

This data, which tracks ice coverage on land and sea using microwave radiometry, has historically been made available to scientists by the Department of Defense (DoD), in addition to being used for military ship deployments.

The U.S. Navy's Fleet Numerical Meteorology and Oceanography Center is responsible for ceasing the real-time processing and supply of this sea-ice data to scientists.

Following an outcry over the suddenness of this decision, the discontinuation date was pushed back to the end of July 2025.

Scientific Implications:

From a purely scientific perspective, this move is deemed "madness" because the sea-ice index is a critical indicator of global warming.

The absence of this data will "blind" scientists to a significant measure of climate change, making it difficult to assess the proximity to a "brink" of catastrophic melting.

Sea ice acts as a buffer against glacier melting, and its removal could accelerate dangerous sea-level rises.

There are also commercial implications, as less ice would allow cargo ships shorter, faster routes in the Arctic.

While other countries like Japan (with its JAXA Shizuku satellite and AMSRS-2 instrument) collect similar data, transitioning to these alternative sources requires time for calibration, creating a "blind spot" in monitoring.

Broader Context of Government Actions on Science and Funding:

The cutting of sea-ice data is presented as one of several actions by the U.S. government impacting scientific efforts. These include:

The eviction of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies and the National Science Foundation (NSF) from their offices.

The removal of climate science references from government websites.

The cancellation of funding for hurricane forecasts.

Numerous NASA missions facing threats and budget cuts, with project teams asked to prepare "closeout" plans.

The Trump administration's 2026 budget proposal specifically calls for a nearly 25% reduction in NASA's overall budget, from $24.9 billion to $18.8 billion, with deeper cuts of almost 50% proposed for the Science Mission Directorate. This could lead to the cancellation of 41 missions and the defunding of 17 others. NASA's acting leadership views this as a "hard time" for the agency, and some officials believe "NASA is f**ked". The intent behind these cuts is described by the White House as necessary to rein in excessive spending, eliminate underperforming projects, and reorient NASA toward "more cost-efficient private partnerships".

Conversely, some within the Q Research General threads express support for these cuts, with one user stating, "Good work US Military fuck the Climate Scientist". Another user suggests that scientists who "won't push the propaganda" will not receive fame or funding.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has denied the existence of any government-led weather manipulation programs, stating that no current human technology can influence large-scale weather events. Despite this, reports circulate about "weather modification projects" in areas like Kerrville, Texas, which some users connect to extreme weather events and view as potential "weather warfare operations".

President Donald Trump has also spoken about using the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to "look at Musk" to "save a fortune" by potentially cutting government subsidies and contracts to his companies. This ties into the broader context of the "One Big Beautiful Bill", which includes eliminating over half a trillion dollars in taxpayer-funded subsidies .

>>23283957 A San Jose jury has ordered Google to pay more than $314.6 million to Android users in California

A San Jose jury has ordered Google to pay more than $314.6 million to Android users in California. This significant judgment stems from the jury's finding that Google improperly harvested data from smartphones without user permission.

Within the provided sources, there is a strong sentiment expressed by some users regarding this ruling and Google's overall conduct:

Users suggest that Google needs to have its "National Security Clearance Nullified" and be "TORN FORCEFULLY and DEACTIVATE[d] out of the US Govt".

There are general claims that "Google is a fraud".

Beyond this specific lawsuit, the sources also contain other notable mentions related to Google:

Environmental Impact of AI: Google's carbon emissions have reportedly climbed by a massive 51% since 2019, primarily due to its heavy investment in AI technology. The company's "ambition-based emissions" grew by 11% in the last year, reaching 11.5 million metric tons of carbon dioxide pollution, making it harder for Google to meet its goal of halving emissions by 2030. Its total emissions reached over 15.1 million metric tons of carbon dioxide, equivalent to nearly 40 gas-fired power plants over a year.

Energy Deals: Google has signed a multi-billion dollar deal to purchase 200 MW of fusion energy from Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), a Bill Gates-backed nuclear startup, starting in the 2030s. This deal is intended to secure massive electricity supplies for the growing needs of data centers and AI systems. Google has been an investor in CFS since 2021.

>>23281385 Elon Musk received $57+ billion in government subsidies / contracts

Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene's query about Elon Musk's receipt of "$57+ billion in government subsidies / contracts" is supported and elaborated upon in the provided sources, detailing the extensive financial support his companies have received from various government entities.

Elon Musk's ventures, including Tesla, SpaceX, and SolarCity, have collectively benefited from tens of billions of dollars in government support, contracts, loans, and tax credits. While an older report from May 2015 estimated this support at approximately $4.9 billion, more recent figures from June 2025 indicate a significantly higher amount, reaching and likely exceeding $57 billion, as referenced in your query.

Here's a breakdown of the reported government financial ties to Elon Musk's companies:

* Overall Government Support (as of June 2025):

* Reports suggest Musk's businesses have received at least $38 billion in government contracts, loans, subsidies, and tax credits.

* Approximately two-thirds of this money has been committed to his businesses within the last five years.

* Some analyses indicate that the portion of Musk's net worth derived from government contracts and subsidies could be even higher than reported.

* SpaceX:

* SpaceX has received $22 billion in federal spending, as stated by SpaceX President and COO Gwynne Shotwell.

* At least 25% of SpaceX's 2024 revenue came from federal contracts, totaling $3.4 billion.

* Dozens of contracts with NASA, the Defense Department, and five other government agencies are projected to pay Musk's companies an additional $11.8 billion in coming years.

* SpaceX was awarded an $81.6 million Space Systems Command (SSC) task order for the USSF-178 multi-manifest mission.

* It has also secured contracts with Space Force for a new secretive MILNET SATCOM network, valued at up to $13 billion.

* Historically, SpaceX's initial Falcon 1 rocket launches were paid for by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA). SpaceX also received a $100 million contract from the U.S. Air Force for Falcon I.

* The company has won over $5.5 billion in government contracts from NASA and the U.S. Air Force, separate from other incentives.

* Starlink:

* Starlink secured $6 billion in federal contracts from 2022 to 2023. The Russian region of Lugansk People’s Republic has banned Musk’s Starlink, citing security concerns that it could be used by "the enemy to coordinate its actions, transfer data and deliver strikes".

* Tesla:

* Tesla has received over $11 billion in regulatory credits from federal and state governments.

* This includes $2.1 billion in federal funds for the development of new electric vehicles (EVs) and batteries.

* Since 2014, approximately one-third of Tesla's $36 billion in profits have come from selling federal and state regulatory credits to other automakers.

* Tesla has also received nearly $800 million from the Energy and Treasury Departments since 2007.

* Nevada provided Tesla with $1.3 billion in incentives for a battery factory near Reno.

* Tesla vehicle buyers have qualified for an estimated $284 million in federal tax incentives and collected over $38 million in California rebates.

* SolarCity:

* New York state is spending $750 million to build a solar panel factory in Buffalo for SolarCity, which will lease the plant for $1 a year and not pay property taxes for a decade, an estimated $260 million savings.

* SolarCity reported receiving $497.5 million in direct grants from the Treasury Department.

The sources repeatedly highlight a "public-private financing model" underpinning Musk's companies. Critics, including a hedge fund manager, argue that "Government support is a theme of all three of these companies, and without it none of them would be around". This dependence is often labeled as "welfare for the rich".

This extensive financial reliance on the government became a central point of a public feud between Elon Musk and President Donald Trump. Trump has openly stated that Musk receives "more subsidy than any human being in history". Trump also threatened to have the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) "take a good, hard, look" at Musk's subsidies, suggesting it could save the country "a fortune" and that without them, Musk might "have to close up shop and head back home to South Africa". Tesla shares reportedly tumbled following Trump's comments.

>>23282541 In Russia, you leave through the tactical express window

The phrase "In Russia, you leave through the tactical express window" appears in the sources as a dark, sarcastic, or ironic remark commenting on sudden and often suspicious departures or terminations, particularly in the context of Russia .

This comment directly responds to the news item "Del Monte files for bankruptcy", and is also closely related to another reported event: "Oil tycoon falls to his death from elite Moscow apartment block in latest mystery death to Russia".

Here's a breakdown of its likely meaning within the provided context:

Reference to Suspicious Deaths/Departures: The most direct and chilling interpretation comes from the news about the Russian oil tycoon, Andrey Badalov, who "fell from a high-rise apartment building in Moscow’s elite Rublevskoye neighborhood" . Although authorities initially ruled it a suicide, "the circumstances remain suspicious" . The phrase "tactical express window" is an ironic and grim euphemism for being forced out or eliminated, implying that a "fall from a window" might not be accidental or self-inflicted but rather a "tactic" for removal .

Application to Companies/Organizations: By using this phrase in response to Del Monte filing for bankruptcy, and in the broader context of other companies like Microsoft shutting down operations in Pakistan, the anonymous user extends this dark humor. It suggests that these corporate "departures" or failures are also abrupt, possibly forced, or represent a dramatic "exit" from their operations, akin to the suspicious "falls" of individuals.

Implied Control and Elimination: Within the broader "Q Research General" discussions, there's a recurring theme of "the storm" and "winning" against perceived "Deep State" actors and "evil" entities. The phrase "tactical express window" could imply that those deemed undesirable or problematic are being swiftly and definitively removed from the scene, whether through literal death or the collapse of their enterprises, as part of this ongoing "war" . It highlights a perceived lack of "escape" or "hiding" for those targeted.

In essence, "In Russia, you leave through the tactical express window" serves as a morbidly humorous or cynical commentary on an abrupt and potentially orchestrated end for individuals or entities, whether through suspicious means or severe business downturns, particularly emphasizing the idea of a forced exit.

>>23297240, >>23297339 FBI launches criminal investigations into former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey

The FBI has recently launched criminal investigations into former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey. This development is part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to address perceived corruption within intelligence agencies and the justice system.

Here's a breakdown of the information provided in the sources:

Basis for the Investigations: The investigations are centered on the alleged manipulation of intelligence regarding Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election.

John Brennan's Alleged Role: Former CIA Director John Brennan is accused of lying under oath regarding his role in including the discredited Steele dossier in the 2016 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA). Reports indicate he "specifically pushed for the inclusion of the dossier in the ICA despite explicit warnings from his top operational and analytical management that the dossier 'didn’t meet the most basic [of] tradecraft standards'". He allegedly stated he wanted it included because it "fit narrative consistency" and that former FBI Director James Comey was also demanding its inclusion, despite both agencies having previously found its allegations not credible. Brennan is also accused of manipulating who would write the ICA and rushing its completion to ensure "maximum damage to Trump".

James Comey's Alleged Role: Former FBI Director James Comey is implicated alongside Brennan in the manipulation and rushed drafting of the ICA and the inclusion of the Steele dossier, with the aim to "destroy President Trump". Furthermore, Comey's daughter, Maurene Comey, has been a prosecutor in high-profile cases like Jeffrey Epstein's and Sean "Diddy" Combs', leading to accusations of cover-ups and protecting elites.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe's Role: The current CIA Director, John Ratcliffe, has been instrumental in exposing these alleged manipulations. He commissioned an internal CIA review that revealed how Brennan, Comey, and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper "manipulated intelligence and silenced career professionals — all to get Trump". Ratcliffe has emphasized the need for transparency and accountability, stating that the ICA was a "ploy to ‘screw Trump’".

Current FBI Leadership (Kash Patel & Dan Bongino): FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino are portrayed as leading efforts to "lock up criminals, and cleaning up America’s streets" by focusing on traditional law enforcement activities and removing "politicization and weaponization" from the agency. Since January 20, 2025, the FBI has reportedly invested over 1 million hours collaborating with ICE, DEA, and local police, leading to the arrest of more than 10,000 illegal aliens with criminal backgrounds.

Controversy over Epstein Case: Despite their stated commitment to transparency and rooting out corruption, Patel and Bongino (along with Attorney General Pam Bondi) have faced strong backlash and accusations of a cover-up from some MAGA supporters regarding the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. A recent memo from the DOJ and FBI stated there was no credible evidence of an Epstein "client list," no blackmail, and that he died by suicide, contradicting earlier public statements by Pam Bondi and prior stances by Patel and Bongino. This has led some to question the integrity of the current FBI leadership and suggest the memo might be a "trap" to expose "leakers" or to create a "distraction".

Ongoing Efforts and Broader Context:

Senator Chuck Grassley has committed to exposing individuals involved in attempts to target President Trump over the past eight years, with documents to prove it.

There is also a revelation that the FBI allegedly blocked an investigation into Chinese interference in the 2020 election to protect former FBI Director Christopher Wray from criticism after he provided "inaccurate and contradictory testimony to Congress".

The Senate has advanced President Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," which aims to enact significant reforms. This legislation is also facing opposition and scrutiny.

There's a recurring theme of distrust in federal agencies, with some advocating for military intelligence to take over investigations due to alleged pervasive corruption within the FBI, CIA, and DOJ.

source: https://8kun.top/qresearch/

Newly declassified records, particularly those planned for release by DNI Tulsi Gabbard, are presented in the sources as further evidence that the 2016 Russia Collusion narrative was not based on credible intelligence but was instead manufactured for political purposes.

Here's what the sources indicate about this manufactured narrative:

* Criminal Referrals and Investigations: CIA Director John Ratcliffe sent a criminal referral to FBI Director Kash Patel regarding potential criminality by former CIA Director John Brennan, following a CIA review that critiqued Brennan's actions related to the Russiagate scandal. Former FBI Director James Comey is also reportedly under FBI investigation, with his interactions with Brennan being viewed as a "possible conspiracy".

* Manipulation of the Steele Dossier:

* Declassified CIA emails reportedly show that John Brennan personally intervened to insert the Steele dossier's "lies" into intelligence analysis, despite strong objections from his top Russia analysts at Langley.

* Brennan's deputy director for analysis reportedly warned him that including the dossier "risked the credibility of the entire paper". The CIA review indicated that Brennan "showed a preference for narrative consistency over analytical soundness".

* James Comey also pushed to include the debunked Steele dossier in the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) and later briefed President-elect Trump on its "most salacious allegations". He is accused of using the dossier to deceive the FISA Court to obtain a spy warrant against Trump.

* "Clinton Plan Intelligence": The Durham report and new declassified documents reveal that Brennan briefed then-President Obama, Vice President Biden, and others in August 2016 about "alleged approval by Hillary Clinton on 26 July of a proposal from one of her [campaign] advisors to vilify Donald Trump by stirring up a scandal claiming interference by the Russian security services". Despite this intelligence, the FBI reportedly never opened an inquiry into this Clinton campaign plan, in contrast to their immediate investigation into alleged Trump-Russia collusion.

* Durham's Findings: Special Counsel John Durham's report concluded that U.S. law enforcement and the Intelligence Community possessed no actual evidence of Trump-Russia collusion at the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. The report noted that the FBI ignored the fact that no substantive allegation in the Steele dossier was corroborated.

* FBI's "Grand Conspiracy" Probe: Under current FBI Director Kash Patel, the FBI has reportedly initiated an investigation into a decade of alleged Democratic party and "deep-state" misconduct, ranging from the Russia collusion narrative to other political actions, to determine if they constitute a criminal conspiracy to meddle in U.S. elections. This probe could be bolstered by Trump declassifying two classified pieces of evidence: an annex from an Inspector General probe of Hillary Clinton's email server and the "Clinton plan intelligence" from Durham's report.

* Trump's Perspective: President Trump consistently refers to the Russia collusion narrative as a "hoax" and a "scam" orchestrated by former President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, and John Brennan, drawing parallels to the "Jeffrey Epstein Hoax". He argues that if any "smoking gun" evidence existed against him, it would have been used years ago by his political opponents.

* "Mockingbird Media Network": The sources suggest that a "Mockingbird Media Network" actively uses "anonymous sources" and phrases like "reportedly" to validate and spread false narratives that they themselves created. This network is implicated in widely adopting and pushing the Russia collusion narrative. Devin Nunes states that this "real intelligence" about the Clinton campaign stirring up controversy never reached investigators like himself, which "didn’t allow President Trump to govern in his first term…because…everything was about Russia all the time". He further indicates that Brennan and Comey knew the Steele Dossier was a Clinton campaign hoax.

In summary, the information suggests that a concerted effort by political figures and intelligence officials led to the creation and dissemination of the Russia collusion narrative, despite internal objections and a lack of credible evidence, with new declassified documents anticipated to further expose these alleged actions.
