Welcome to Venezuela
 
Hi to all - 
 
Things are heating up on that front.  Lots of harsh words, etc.  But there is something more behind them.  There is an island called Margaret Island off the coast of Venezuela, and only a couple of hundred miles from Barbados. Margaret Island is not a tourist resort, however.  It is a training camp for terrorists, closely affiliated with Hamas and Hezbollah, and financed by Maduro.  After recruits complete the training course on the island, they are flown to Iran and other places in that area to complete their training.  Then, they are sent to whatever place needs chaos and terror - like the US.  Who pays for all this?  You do.  The drugs smuggled in from Venezuela are the source of the money, and the money comes from Americans who buy, sell and use drugs.  Lots of fentanyl, as well as the classic cocaine, etc.  The [Tren de Aragua] gang is also part of this, and act as foot soldiers here in America to peddle the drugs, shake down people for money, and control the human smuggling operations.
 
The US has lost millions of people, especially young people, to the drugs and violence associated with drugs.  That is why Trump is going after the drug boats and conducting operations within Venezuela.    This will get even more ugly before it gets better.  Maduro tried to bribe Trump to stop the attacks with sweetheart deals.
 
Drug supplies on the street are down 53% due to the closed border and now the interception of drug boats, etc.  When their money is threatened, cartels get violent.
 
 
Charleroi, Penn
This small town decided to go all in on the idea of replacing American workers with illegals.  Fourth Street Foods, once an American company, was staffed almost entirely by Haitians.  This 'saved' so much money in operating costs that the company has gone belly up, leaving $90 million in debt, and a lot of unemployed illegals who now face deportation.  This was presented by democrats as a form of 'revitalization' of our economy, and a great leap forward.  This is why their media will ignore the story and move along.
 
Don Lemon
He is actually telling black and brown illegals to buy guns and be prepared to fight the government that wants to deport them.   In his mind, this is the same as the Revolutionary War, where patriots stood up against a tyrannical government.  Last I looked, Trump was not exactly King George.  In fact, in spite of huge protests, no one on the left can show any evidence that Trump is an actual king.  We don't elect kings, yet.
 
California
 A federal judge [U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez] certified that citizens can file a class action suit against California schools and their secret 'gender' policies that cut parents out of the loop.  This case could affect millions of students and their parents.  Schools will no longer be able to groom students in secret and refuse to inform parents.  If 'Parental Exclusion' ends, this evil program will also end.  It can only work in secret.  This case centers in the Escondido School District.
 
Princeton University
They are dropping 'equity' as a basis for admitting students in favor of old fashioned 'standardized tests'.  Merit wins, DEI loses.
 
Washington
A schoolteacher there got on social media and 'presented' the National Anthem using her own chosen words "f**k ICE, f**k Trump".  [The teacher, identified as Kelsey Early from the Issaquah School District in Washington State.]  She was a Spanish teacher, and these were her students, or so it seems.  She was fired but reinstated.  Seems she can actually have her own opinions, so long as she does them outside of school.
 
White House
The East Wing is being torn down to make way for the new ballroom.  It is supposed to be ready in time for the 250th Birthday of America.
 
Appeals Court
Such a shock!!  They ruled that Trump is indeed the Commander in Chief, and he can send troops to Portland, even if they don't like it.
 
Benjamin Campbell
This accountant, 38, is charged with attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon after he took down a Trump banner in his neighbor's yard, then got into an argument with that neighbor, and started shooting at him.  [He was taken into custody on Sept. 30 in Georgia and extradited to North Carolina on Oct 7.]  Neighbor Mark Thomas was not injured.  TDS is real, and dangerous.
 
'No Kings' Protest
One man claimed that LAPD 'ran over him' and was taken away to a hospital.  However, a few minutes later, he was seen back at the protest, without any sign of injury.  Could this have been a fake claim, to escape arrest?
 
Atlanta
Billy Joe Cagle, 49, [of Cartersville, Ga.] was arrested after being turned in by his family for planning to go to Hartsfield Airport and shoot up the place.  He was in possession of an AR-15 style rifle and a couple dozen rounds of ammo.
 
Ian Andre Roberts
This is the 'school superintendent' in Iowa who was arrested as an illegal.  He was found to be registered to vote (non-citizens are not allowed to vote in national elections in America) not only locally in Iowa, but also twice in Maryland.  Curious, isn't it?
 
Sniper
A hunting stand was discovered in a direct line of sight to Air Force 1.  Another sniper attempt?  Well, the stand appeared to be very old, and may have had nothing to do with current politics.
