Around X:

• @elonmusk

• Remember when almost every legacy media outlet lied that Biden was “sharp as a tack” right before the Presidential debate where it was obvious he had dementia? Well, they’re still lying just as much now. (video)

• @TheChiefNerd

• RODGERS: “People are always like why do you keep f**king bringing up the vaccine. For multiple reasons. This is a playbook that now we have for the next time they f**king try and do this sh*t. Don't forget about this.” (video)
• Sen. Ron Johnson Says “Exposure & Accountability” is Coming for Fauci. “I didn’t have as strong of a subpoena power as I will have as Chairman of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations … I’m putting you on notice. We have emails from other sources. So you better not destroy records … I want [Fauci] fully exposed.” (video)

• @WallStreetMav

• Janet Yellen Says US Will Hit Debt Ceiling Mid-January, Forcing Treasury To Employ 'Extraordinary Measures'. She doesn’t mention that she has been intentionally reducing the cash balance in the govt checking acct, forcing a debt crisis on Trump when he takes over. Kevin McCarthy foolishly gave Biden/Yellen an unlimited debt ceiling thru January 1, 2025 back in 2023 during a CR vote. It made no sense and that is one reason McCarthy was ousted as Speaker.

• @ShadowofEzra

• The Bill Gates Foundation, in collaboration with the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and the World Health Organization (WHO), ran a simulation called "Catastrophic Contagion", imagining a deadly pandemic in 2025. This time, the outbreak, caused by an enterovirus called "SEERS", would have a higher fatality rate than COVID-19 and disproportionately affect children. The panel examined lessons from the COVID-19 crisis, discussing topics like societal control, propaganda, and the controversial closure of churches. (video)

• HUGE NEWS. Italy has banned ground mounted solar panels on farm land to protect their food supply. Be more like Italy.

• @newstart_2024

• Dr. Peter McCullough: "The current strain of bird flu is a product of gain of function research done in the USDA Poultry Research Laboratory in Athens, Georgia. So it is a man made problem that, our farms are experiencing right now. It's in the peer reviewed literature, and, I mean, it's really you know, the next steps in this outbreak is, for people to understand, you know, the ramifications of it personally and how to be prepared." "It's the circulating clade, which is the kind of the original source strain, is clade 2.3.4.4b, and, again, that is a product of what's called serial passage gain of function research done at the USDA Poultry Research Laboratory."

• @MJTruthUltra

• Tom Homan says get ready… When Mass Deportations begin, There will be a Massive coordinated effort by Mockingbird media to exploit and Magnify the first Crying Baby or Woman being deported. Tom Homan plans on providing weekly press briefings to tell the American people who we are deporting and why… BRILLIANT!

• JUST IN: Biden announced $2.5 billion in security assistance for Ukraine. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen announced $3.4 billion in budget aid to Ukraine. Nearly $6 billion authorized for Ukraine today. Meanwhile North Carolina looks like this: (video)

• @WallStreetApes

• THERE IT IS! New Director of The FBI Kash Patel exposes The CIA was behind the COVID 19 coverup working with Anthony Fauci “Gina Haspel as Director of The CIA — authorized 6 case officers and intelligence analysts to be paid off so that they would change their assessment on COVID originations”. “Institutional decision to spend taxpayer dollars to lie to the world where Covid came from because it fit the narrative that Fauci and the media wanted out there. Along with Gina Haspel” Kash Patel then talks about how Anthony Fauci and the media worked together to shape a narrative and The CIA backed them up. (video)
• This is so crazy. Women’s perfume is now being loaded up with chemicals that decrease fertility. This can’t be a coincidence. Senior Medical Analyst Dr. Marc Siegel discusses infertility, “Phthalates, which are in scented scented products like perfumes”. Phthalates: - Lead to infertility in women and men. - Negatively impact sperm physiology and fertility. - Phthalates can increase the risk of miscarriage and pregnancy. - Phthalates can alter hormones secreted by the ovary, leading to imbalances in hormone levels across the menstrual cycle. Dr. Marc Siegel goes on to discuss how forever chemicals are in everything in America. (video)
• This American has been on the ground helping Hurricane Helene victims in North Carolina, he describes what’s currently happening. - FEMA and just about every insurance agency has denied almost everyone's claim. - They're closing all the shelters because they think they're not needed. Meanwhile, everybody is freezing, hungry and homeless. - Everything that's being done is being done by volunteers. - And to top it off, the news is trying to convince you that it's not f*cking happening. Again, this is a man that is actually there, and has been there helping. (video)
