LUTNICK SWINDLES AMERICA AGAIN!!
The Supreme Court just ruled Trump's tariffs illegal. Guess who's about to make a fortune off it?
Cantor Fitzgerald, the firm now run by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's sons, has been buying up the rights to tariff refunds from U.S. importers at pennies on the dollar.
Here's how the scheme works:
→ U.S. companies paid billions in tariffs that are now ruled illegal
→ Cantor approaches those companies and says: "I'll give you 25 cents now for every dollar you're owed in refunds"
→ Companies take the quick cash rather than wait years for the legal process
→ When the refunds come through, Cantor collects the full dollar

🚨🇲🇽 Back in June 2020, CJNG gunmen ambushed then-Mexico City police chief Harfuch.
They bullet-riddled his SUV. 2 bodyguards and 1 bystander died that day.
Harfuch was hit 3 times but survived.
He blamed El Mencho directly.
Fast-forward to 2026: Harfuch is Mexico's Secretary of Security under Sheinbaum.
He helped oversee the military op that took down El Mencho in Jalisco on Feb 22.

I think trump should play a highlight reel of toadies and stooges and rinos and commies saying that "American families are going to pay all the tariffs", and then say fine, let's refund it to the American people then.

STUDY: Israeli FOIA Data Reveals Massive Heart Injury Spike in Children Immediately After mRNA Shot Rollout
This is what they said would never happen.
Feb 23, 2026
For years, the public was told that COVID-19 mRNA injection–induced cardiac injury in children was rare. That reassurance formed the backbone of adolescent vaccination campaigns across the world. But what if the underlying safety data were never fully processed or disclosed?
What if hundreds of adverse event reports submitted by frontline clinicians were simply left unanalyzed during the very period when policymakers were declaring the injections safe for teens?
According to Israel’s State Comptroller, approximately 279,300 adverse event reports submitted during the vaccination campaign by Clalit Health Services — Israel’s largest health provider — were never processed by the Ministry of Health.
These reports were not publicly examined during mid-2021, when vaccine eligibility was expanded to adolescents. They were not incorporated into real-time risk–benefit assessments. They were not disclosed to parents deciding whether to vaccinate their children.
Only years later, following repeated Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, the raw dataset — containing 294,877 adverse event reports — was released.
We analyzed that dataset using a deliberately conservative methodology. Our findings have now been peer-reviewed and published in the International Journal of Cardiovascular Research & Innovation, in a study titled, Cardiovascular safety signals in Israeli adolescents following COVID-19 Vaccination: Evidence from an unprocessed FOIA dataset, authored by Yaakov Ophir, Yaffa Shir-Raz, David Shuldman, Nicolas Hulscher (myself), and Peter A. McCullough.
