Than 1,000 al-Qaeda Sleepers in the U.S.
Planning Major Homeland Attacks (Video)

This is truly chilling, especially in the wake of today’s terror attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas. A former CIA officer named Sarah Adams was interviewed on the Shawn Ryan podcast just two weeks ago, and warned that there are more than a thousand al-Qaeda sleepers in the United States right now who are planning major attacks on the homeland. She clearly implicates Biden’s open southern border as the entry point for these potential terrorists and suggests that they have developed new tactics and bombs that can evade detection through traditional means. Zero Hedge has more details:

To deal with these alleged 1,000 Al Qaeda sleeper operatives, we need to bring back OPERATION PHOENIX and for those who don’t know what I’m talking about, ask a Vietnam veteran—privately.

Cut off the money supply to Iran from every source, including any nation that does business with them. EVERY time one of them tries a terrorist act, beat up Iran. Turn Israel loose on Iran. REMOVE Iran's nukes and oil producing capabilities.

I don't doubt for a minute that there are terrorists in America. I don't doubt they came in through the Southern Border. Finding them may be tough, this last one in New Orleans was born here though and spent time in our military. They are in our small business's spread thin all over.

If you aren't aware of this, you're asleep at the wheel. I'm just surprised they waited this long to do anything. They have been piling in here since Fat Ted gave them the invitation. Then Obama sent them an invitation, even dropping them from the sky so they would be sure and get them. We are scroooooed.

It is almost certain that enemies of America are in the country. The dems let them in, as we have been warning that they were doing. Anything that happens needs to be hung on the neck of Biden and his administration, the dems, their media, and their Deep State and SUPER GLUED in place. THEY let the enemy within the gates. THEY are TRAITORS. Labeling them will not stop the people they let in from what they might do but such TRAITORS should never be put in a position of responsibility again. We cannot stop all that might happen. All we can do is attempt to identify the bad actors and kick them out as fast as possible. Then, as Israel has taught us, absolute vengeance is called for. We need to rebuild our internal security mechanisms and BIND them to going after foreign threats, and prohibit them from going after American citizens. The FBI's duel role has been insane. They should be focused on going after criminals, not doing counter-intelligence. Our counter-intelligence agencies need to be completely rebuilt and refocused. We need to expeditiously execute foreign actors who commit terrorism in this country. Period. If they are associated with nations like Iran, we need to make massive efforts to undermine and disassemble the country. International courts are useless. People in other countries fomenting terrorism in America should be treated as Osama bin Laden, ripped out their hidey holes, executed, and dumped in a grave in the deep ocean. Countries that shelter such people are our enemies and should be treated as such. If the UN does not support us in this, as they almost certainly will not, we should toss the grifters OUT and give them NO more monetary support. This should be true for any other international agency that refuses to support us; no havens in the US and no funding. This will probably be a sad and painful period in our history. Hopefully we can come out of it far stronger than we have been.

Adams has a clear understanding of what could lie ahead. If all 50 states were to come under coordinated attack, I would expect the tactics to be asymmetrical. Obie, biden you cheater, dims, deep state, and msm, you better hope that Adams is wrong. Recall that Wray attempted to cover his rear well before the election by warning us that there is high risk of a terrorist attack here in the states. Let's hope that a terrorist operation as Adams describes is foiled before it goes operational.

Oh yes. While ‘Old Joe’ will sleep peacefully in complete safety, comfort and luxury from now on, the American people will have to suffer the consequences of his time as President. And those who will have to fight the battles and deal with the danger and uncertainty that ensue - whether large or small - will have his stupidity and arrogance to thank for it all. His legacy - in every area and direction - is rotten to the core!

I can't blame the FIB for every attack, but why are they rounding up the J6-ers, pro-lifers and law abiding people who own 'too many guns'? Like a crazed arsonist, the FBI seems to have a fascination with running to the scene of an attack and then saying they'll get right on it.

The Intelligence Community is now the Deep State. There is no one using their imagination...i.e., the mind of the Jihadis. The drones are looking for a nuke...but they won't tell you that. Nukes will cause panic well beyond drone sightings. The Chinese (military aged males) have come across the border in the thousands. The Chinese can do nothing without Beijing's knowledge. They were running bio-labs and their own "police stations" right here in the U.S. They are in cahoots with the cartels...and Iran, Russia and China are all poised here working as one. Besides the dirty bomb(s), no one is thinking the worst: bio-weapons. The Wuhan designer COVID bug was just a dress rehearsal. I've been saying this for years, biologicals and their use is way over due. Sleeper cells are entrenched throughout the U.S. and are just waiting for the "green light." We will surely see what Israel saw on October 7th (2023)...a massacre beyond comprehension. And it that doesn't scare you, consider an EMP attack! It will take us back to the stone age...and our defense systems will become nil and void.

#3 it was a war, bad things happen sometimes to good people. It's not a secret anymore. I understand the op was successful overall. I'm not talking about you, but there are those who look for the bad in all matters, PhD candidates esp. wanting to exposed some evil we did - overall. What was terrible was the control exerted by the politicians. They worried about how things looked rather than looking to the military to win the war. They got a lot of good people killed and they lost the war. They snatched victory from.... We, the US, won it at every turn - including Tet.

Washington—Most presidents get to move into the White House once. President-elect Donald Trump is doing it twice, and his wife, Melania, says it’s a lot easier the second time around. “I know where I will be going. I know the rooms where we will be living. I know the process,” the incoming first lady said recently. She described their first move to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in 2017 as “challenging.” Regardless of who is president, the whole process also challenges the White House residence staff: The maids, butlers and others who look after the president’s private living space have about five hours — from start to finish — on Inauguration Day to move

Washington, D.C.—What began in January 2017 as the “Women’s March” morphed into a smorgasbord of liberal, progressive, and socialist groups rebranded as the “People’s March” ahead of President-Elect Donald Trump’s inauguration. Despite broadening protest group categories, the rally failed to muster the size of the initial Women’s March that followed Trump’s first swearing-in ceremony eight years ago. “Anti-Trump” was the only thing the groups seemed to have in common. Pro-abortion protesters joined arms with leftists of all kinds to march on Washington, D.C., two days before Donald Trump’s 2025 inauguration.

The report details a “stark contrast to his divisive entry in 2017 and departure in 2021” compared to Trump’s reelection, but it failed to mention the amount of obstacles he overcame to achieve the greatest political comeback in American history.Trump ultimately defeated political opponents who tried to imprison him, bankrupt him, remove him from the ballot, and make him politically irrelevant by introducing a partisan committee to investigate January 6 — and whose inflammatory rhetoric created a ripe environment for two assassination attempts.

As Kayyem and CNN News Central host Brianna Keilar discussed the Senate confirmation hearings for Homeland Security Secretary-designate Kristi Noem, Kayyem asserted that "the immigration agenda has nothing to do with enforcement anymore.

Washington— President Biden and his aides have spent their final days in office announcing 32 executive actions — on topics from immigration to offshore drilling — aimed at tying up President-elect Donald Trump’s administration. The lame-duck 82-year-old’s flurry of late moves to try to make himself a hero to Democrats and obstruct his successor’s agenda include: (Photo) Deportation protection . Granting Temporary Protected Status to almost 1 million people, meaning they are protected from deportation and entitled to work permits. The action, decreed by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Jan. 10, shields 234,000 Salvadorans, 1,900 Sudanese, 104,000 Ukrainians and 600,000 Venezuelans for a period of 18 months.

Heartbroken TikTokers are going cuckoo. Users of the now defunct social app nationwide are mourning its loss early Sunday, after the popular video-sharing platform went dark for its 170 million American users in the face of a legal US ban. “ITS GONE TIKTOK IS GONE,” one user posted to X with a gif of someone nervously smoking. A podcaster with more than 1.8 followers named iJustine helped lead the hysteria on X: “It’s been 15 minutes and I’m already going through TikTok withdrawals.

The US Treasury Department will start taking "extraordinary measures" next week to avoid risking a default on government debt, Secretary Janet Yellen said Friday, days before President-elect Donald Trump takes office. With the government reaching its borrowing limit, the department would start making the moves on Tuesday, the day after the inauguration, Yellen said in a letter to congressional leaders. That will mean Trump's administration has to grapple immediately with the issue of the debt ceiling. In the past, Congress has routinely voted to lift this bar, but that tool has become a contentious issue, with Republican budget hawks calling for drastic spending reductions instead.

Joe Biden recently admitted that he might not have been able to complete a second term, telling USA Today, “Who knows what I’m going to be when I’m 86 years old?” It was a stunning admission indeed. For years, conservatives were calling out blatant issues with Joe Biden's cognitive health and physical frailty. On Monday, our long national nightmare will end, and we will once again have someone physically and cognitively capable of running the country back in the White House. But that doesn’t mean we should forget the scandalous efforts by those around Biden to cover up his decline. A new report from the New York Times

President Trump is assembling an administration stocked with prominent gay and lesbian Americans — defying hysterical Democratic rhetoric. “When it comes to whether you’re gay or straight, black or white and all those markers others calculate — President Trump is decision blind. He bases his decision on the kind of job he knows you will do, period,” said Bill White, a top Trump fundraiser — who was tapped to serve as the US ambassador to Belgium. Among the picks: Scott Bessent, 62, treasury secretary. If confirmed, the hedge fund manager would be the highest-ranking openly gay official in US history.

A lot of us Catholics have been weirded out by President Trump's closeness to Catholic culture. We couldn't figure out where it came from. Last year, he wished the Virgin Mary a happy birthday. He tweeted an image of Our Lady of Guadalupe. He issued praise for All Saints Day. (Snip) It all began a few years ago when Father Mann was walking through a Queens cemetery and came upon the gravesite of Trump’s parents and grandparents. “It was slightly overgrown,” Father Mann recalled. “I thought this shouldn’t be. This is a historic site. So, I went and bought a weed whacker and some decorations and fixed up the plot.
