Tren de Aragua in league with Maduro, Gabbard & Patel say, after 'illegal' classified leaks

While some leaks of classified docs say the notorious Tren de Aragua gang and Venezuela's strongman are not working together, contradicting President Trump's contention, but new info from the FBI and ODNI provides more evidence of the links between the gangsters and Nicolas Maduro.

Oh ... so they're not working together (directly), they're both working for Maduro...

Gotta say Trump was wrong about something...
Trump says the air is full of oxygen ... fact checker comes along and says no, it is only 21% oxygen. Trump is wrong!! I"m so sick of the fing media anymore ... and even more sick of the lemmings that are too stupid to see what they do.

Gouveia has been a pretty legal guy the last 8 years. He's still looking for more info but so far he can only find a withholding from Guatemala. If this holds up for the 48 hour rule.... Dems are cooked. It'll mean they lied about the entire case just to slow down Trump.

Oh, I'm subbed to Rob's channel on the YT. Best layman's terms law channel out there. IMO.

Citadel CEO Ken Griffin, a billionaire supporter of President Donald Trump and a megadonor to Republican candidates, had some unusually harsh words for the president about his trade war: It’s hurting America’s standing in the world and eroding the nation’s brand.

“The United States was more than just a nation. It’s a brand. It’s a universal brand, whether it’s our culture, our financial strength, our military strength …. America rose beyond just being a country,” Griffin said Wednesday at the Semafor World Economy Summit in Washington. “It was like an aspiration for most the world. And we’re eroding that brand right now.”





JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon had similar remarks in his annual shareholder letter earlier this month. Dimon said America’s “extraordinary standing” in the world was built on the strength of its economy, military and morals. But tariffs and Trump’s “America First” foreign policy could undermine the United States’ special position in the world.

there needs to be some kind of a purge of these traitorous judges. they are trump’s (americans) biggest obstacle right now.

Agreed. He has a way of putting things that make sense, instead of using words that you don't know, to explain something you don't understand. LoL

Not sure what was going on but I couldn't view this board for a week because I kept receiving this message...

Thought I had also received a ban for something I posted.

I wonder if it has something to do with using adblockers... I get that same issue sometimes.

SMH at the fact that topics such as illegal immigration and teaching LGBTQ bullshit to our kids has reached SCOTUS. Liberalism is still the worst crisis facing this country in the last few decades.

They refuse to leave you alone. We are in a war. That’s not hyperbole. That’s straight up truth. They want you conquered. They want your kids and you enslaved to the machine or dead.

Watching these putrid demons advocate for third world invasion, not prosecuting violent criminals, wanting your kids effed up being taught by psycho leftist women and alphabet people, they raise money for murderers as long as the culprit is black, they’re straight up crying for third world gang members. They advocate for Islam. They imprison their enemies and try to murder those who stand in their way.


These people are sick and no politician or election is going to save any of us. That’s the stone cold truth. This stuff is going to reach an inevitable conclusion.

The problem sweetheart.... We all know it was terrorism. He didn't key Tesla's as a prank or just because. He targeted Tesla to instill fear in owning a Tesla with the hopes of hurting Elon. To pretend this was just a lowly property crime is why cities have become almost unlivable.

I love how it acts like we overreacted by being pissed instead of accepting he went wayyyy too far with a ban over that post. All those jokes would have been fine if he'd of just said... "my bad, I thought it was worse than what it was, and I made a mistake". Easy peasy.

 

[hmt5000]

weird. Deporting illegal immigrants had led to a drop in joblessness. I'm going to go out on a limb and say we get an increase in wage numbers soon too. Start getting construction on infrastructure projects and this summer could look a lot better than what it would have been with Kamala.

We have RE in the US. Canada also has tons of RE. The problem is our environmentalist won't let us get them. But given the threat of not having a smart phone.... would liberals let that slide?

• Just 37% of Americans approve of President Donald Trump’s handling of the economy, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos survey, lower than at any point during his first term.
• About 59% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s tariffs on goods from most other countries, per a Pew Research Center survey.
• There is a partisan split in Americans’ confidence in Trump’s ability to handle the economy.

If the census was done correctly, Kackles could've won every swing state and still lost the election.

I've made this point repeatedly here. Illegals here aren't about their voting. It's about their presence shifting electoral votes in the census.

As I said months ago, Congress needs to change the census to allowing only citizens to be considered in awarding EV's. Yet Pubs sit on their a$$es on this.

Without student loans the us would literally be ruled only by elites in all phases of life. The student loan program lets people disrupt that elite rulership at least to the extent of increasing income for otherwise non prominent families.

The issue became when they just started handing out insane money with zero guardrails. Up to about 20 years ago, to get money you had to go through a process and the loan wasnt guaranteed. It wasnt as intensive as private underwriting but it was still somewhat thorough. Furthermore college admission was iffy and you actually had to do reasonably well to avoid getting kicked out.

Some point after that they started loaning untold thousands to anyone. In response to the newfound "generosity", colleges skyrocketed their tuitions and started accepting anyone with a pulse and students had to basically try to fail out.

The entire system needs fixed but if you start by enforcing loan underwriting, then the rest of the system fixed itself. Without endless money, tuition drops and college once again becomes more merit based.

So the program itself is important but it needs enforcement.

Get the government the F out of it.

But if the people don’t turn out in 2026 and let the dims retake the house and senate, everything Trump has accomplished will be undone. And God forbid they elect someone like AOC as president. We will be screwed.

Murkowski is already making a trail of statements to justify a guilty vote if dems take back the house. If we lose the house they will kick Trump out of office. They won't even wait for something to happen... they'll just fabricate the whole deportation nonsense.

This is why Trump is losing weight. He'll be down to 215 again soon.

Not Trump's concern. He's doing the tariffs for the little guys & the country's well-being long-term. He said it would be rocky & he's getting what he expects. To hell with the markets, interest rates, and inflation. At least that's my interpretation of where he was and is. Though I do wonder what Scarlett thinks.

We know usaid employed hunter's group to sway Ukrainian reporting and ultimately strongarm them into allow us to mine minerals. Hunter did nothing really, other than being son to the big guy.

Im ok with that but imo they need to subsidize the loans to avoid interest rates that make these loans essentially out of reach.

The other solution is to remove the special bankruptcy protection. That would drive more traditional underwriting approach rather than just blind payments.

It’s certainly interesting to get an up close look at the kind of thinking that would limit speech on the grounds that it’s offensive.

As always, it begs the basic question of the Enlightenment and of our Revolution- if I’m not allowed to say it, am I allowed to think it?

Imo they acknowledged a mistake, which is a very hopeful sign moving forward.
