- Trump’s investment accounts made more than 1,000 trades in June alone, involving somewhere between $78 million and $263 million. The trades span companies including Berkshire Hathaway, Palantir, Meta, Visa and Coinbase, as Trump’s tariffs, sanctions and foreign-policy decisions continue to move markets. The White House says the portfolio is independently managed and that Trump cannot influence individual trades, but Trump is the biggest shareholder in the Truth API service that sells trading firms ultra-fast access to his market-moving posts.

- BREAKING: Outrage is erupting nationwide after New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill (D) signed a law that could IMPRISON Christians that pray outside abortion facilities. This is INSANE! Strike it down! MCENANY: "Some people could face 18 months in prison for simply praying outside a facility. And if the state upgrades the charge, pro-life advocates could face up to 10 years in prison plus a fine of up to $150,000." Totally unconstitutional. This might end up at SCOTUS. (video)

- Globalists are waging a physical war in Ukraine to first colonize Ukraine in order to then destroy Russia to gather more resources for their own selfish interests. Globalists are waging a cultural war in the United States to destroy the last bastion of freedom in order to gather more resources for their own selfish interests. Stop the rise of globalism by facing up to those who are running these wars. America First!.

- Joe Rogan just revealed something the U.S. government never wanted public - Bob Woodward was a CIA asset who took down Nixon because Nixon knew who killed JFK. Bob Woodward wasn’t a journalist. He was a Naval intelligence officer working inside the Nixon White House. Then he suddenly appears at the Washington Post as a brand-new reporter with zero experience… And gets handed the biggest story in American history. His main source? The #2 guy at the FBI. The Watergate burglars? Almost all CIA employees. Nixon was elected by more votes than any president in U.S. history. Two years later he’s gone. Why? Because he knew who killed JFK… and was about to expose it. This wasn’t journalism. This was a deep-state coup. (video)

- Palantir just released a new surveillance system that fuses satellites, radars and every camera into one real-time tracker of people and movement. We have to consider the possibility (probability?) that with Flock as the eyes, a system like this could be overlaid onto the US and we could be the targets. Another reason we cannot allow Flock to exist. (video)
