What Maduro knows

I was inspired to write this by a more than routinely interesting article by Wayne Root, “Trump Brings Back Maduro to USA. Why? I’m Betting This is About Stolen 2020 Election.” That article affected me in a surprisingly personal way. It impelled me to talk about some things I have mainly kept on the down low, including the story of why I resigned from The Epoch Times, and how a recent book of mine had to be printed twice, and why that might relate to the secrets of dictators. Mr. Root writes of several things, which you should read at the link, but what most caught my attention was this: “Was this strike

What would the remedy for this fraud be? Everything done by Biden nullified? Another term for Pres DJT?

If Dominion machines threw the 2020 election to Democrats, what was different in 2024? Was Trump's margin just too much to bite off??

Maduro knows enough to be a threat to the democrat party. He has information on the dark money, cartel money and compromised voting machines used to steal the 2020 election. Trump had better put him in protective custody before the left gives him the "Epstein Solution".

#4, the left didn't have a viable candidate in 2024 so they didn't pull out all their weapons. They've been patient for over a century, four more years are nothing. Come 2028, they'll have their new Obama, history scrubbed and make-believe bona fides. They'll also have four years of MAGA to go after, vilification, persecution and revenge will be the order of the day. All day, every day. The left have gone no where and scaring the opposition is job one as this article suggests.

Curiously enough, Dominion changed ownership last year. Reportedly, the new owner is a registered Republican.

You may have seen the news story about an attack on J.D. Vance’s Ohio home. Someone smashed windows with a hammer. There was no danger of physical injury, as Vance and his family were not at home. Still, this is the kind of thing that not long ago would have been unthinkable. The perpetrator, no master criminal, has been apprehended. William DeFoor is the son of left-wing parents who are Democratic Party donors. Also, he is a “trans” who now wants to be called Julia. (X) The “trans” segment of the population is vanishingly small.

Driving down Snelling Avenue in St. Paul yesterday, I had a flashback from days gone by. Several protesters were flashing “No blood for oil” signs at Snelling and Grand. They took me back to 2003 and Bushitler — how quaint. Perhaps the signs were recycled. One of the protesters even sported a full face mask. I should have stopped to ask whether the mask was to scare off Covid or to conceal his or her identity, but I passed by. Today I read that an organization named The People’s Forum is spinning up protests against the extraction of Nicolás Maduro from Venezuela to face American justice.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s daughter admitted there was “enough truth” to the alleged billion-dollar fraud scandal plaguing the North Star State — as she opened up about her father’s abrupt decision to drop his bid for a third term. Hope Walz appeared on “One Hour Detours” with host John O’Sullivan just hours after her dad announced he was bowing out of the 2026 governor’s race “to kind of get that target off of Minnesota.” “I think there was enough truth to the fraud claim,” the 25-year-old said. However, she then whined that President Trump and his supporters had twisted and amplified the scandal involving Minnesota’s generous social safety net.

It’s been a mess in Minnesota as of late. Mayor Jacob Frey and police chief Brian O’Hara were already at odds enough with immigration agents coming in and arresting violent illegal immigrants dwelling in American communities. But more details have emerged on a scheme that could be costing the United States more money than anyone could ever realize. The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has already begun an operation looking deeper into day care sites around Minnesota, as they’re suspected of being involved in a multi-billion-dollar fraud scheme. We’re talking $9 billion. These come from a variety of state benefits and reimbursement programs,

The more the onion gets peeled back, the more it looks like the Democrat Party has been heavily invested for years in perpetrating fraud via daycare centers. First, it was the mostly Somali-operated "learing centers" in Minnesota, and, now, it looks like upwards of $19 billion in taxpayer money was sent by the Biden admin to daycare centers without first verifying that children were actually attending the centers. As we've learned from Nick Shirley's fantastic coverage from Minnesota, there's apparently a booming market of "ghost centers" that have the signage and the storefronts, but not so much the children. Shirley visited several centers that looked like

The arrest of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro will reverberate around the world in ways we have yet to see. You have to love watching the American left protest Maduro's arrest and demand his release, while Venezuelans are literally dancing in the streets of Caracas and other places like Miami. After decades of socialism, Venezuela is in an economic shambles. However, with Maduro's ouster, Venezuelans are now rejoicing at the prospect of the opportunities they will now have to improve their lives. But what steps might be needed to take a nation mired in socialism and return it to prosperity? (X) On Monday, Fox Business host Charles Payne appeared

The legacy media have been viscerally angry over President Trump and the United States daring to conduct a successful law enforcement operation resulting in the arrest of socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. So, naturally, Margaret Brennan of CBS’s "Face the Nation" wanted to know why they hadn't made more arrests. There's just no winning with these people. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in an appearance with Brennan on Sunday morning, nearly had to stifle laughter as he pointed out how "absurd" the premise of the argument was. The host wondered why others, such as Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello and Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez, hadn't been swept up

It's official. Minnesota's scandal-plagued Democrat governor, Tim Walz, will not be seeking reelection. RedState's Rusty Weiss reported earlier Monday morning that rumors were swirling of an imminent Walz announcement, with pundits speculating that Walz's political future was indeed bleak after the massive fraud scandal involving the state's Somali community was blown wide open. From Rusty's reporting: Walz has been reeling for weeks now from ongoing fraud probes plaguing Minnesota's social services programs. That alleged fraud exploded after a viral video, extensively covered here at RedState, reportedly showed empty "daycare" facilities with misspelled signs, locked doors, and no trace of children.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has called a press conference at 11:00 a.m. (Central) this morning. He has not specified the subject. Those usually in the know speculate that he will announce the abandonment of his campaign for reelection to a third term despite the stellar job he has done, at least by his own lights. Walz is guilty of an old-fashioned kind of political corruption magnified to the nth degree by an absurdly creative welfare state. He has compiled the worst record of any governor in the history of Minnesota. It has surpassed his ability to talk his way out of it in his accusomed Joe Isuzu style. He should ride

My family plays a regular Dungeons & Dragons game, which I’ve referenced before in A Knight’s Tale. For those who have never played, D&D is essentially a shared story constrained by rules, terrific fun for people who enjoy storytelling. In our game, we kept running into cultists devoted to Orcus, a demon king. Eventually, it became clear that something more ambitious was going on. These cultists were not merely serving a powerful demon. They were advancing his attempt to become something more. Alongside Orcus the demon existed Orcus the Roman god, a judge of the dead associated with oaths, punishment, and the underworld. By infiltrating temples meant for the god,

In one of his autopen’s last acts before Joe Biden left office was to pardon Capt. Mike Byrd, the DC officer who shot and killed January 6 protester Ashli Babbitt in cold blood during the protests on Capitol Hill on January 6, 2021. As TGP’s Brian Lupo noted, video evidence captured Byrd shooting an unarmed Babbitt without warning as she attempted to climb through a narrow window near a barricaded entryway to the Speaker of the House’s office area in the U.S. Capitol. Following an investigation, Byrd was cleared of any wrongdoing, although questions remain about the escalation to lethal force without attempts to subdue or detain Babbitt.

A Minnesota hotel operating under the Hilton Hotels brand canceled reservations for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Department of Homeland Security agents earlier this month, a decision that led Hilton to cut ties with the independently owned location. “The independent hotel owner had assured us that they had fixed this problem and published a message confirming this,” Hilton said in a statement Tuesday morning. “A recent video clearly raises concerns that they are not meeting our standards and values. As such, we are taking immediate action to remove this hotel from our systems.”

Sens. Rand Paul (R-KY) and Mike Lee (R-UT) have balked at the billions of dollars included for refugee funding in one of the nine appropriations bills for fiscal year 2026. The appropriations bill for the Department of Labor and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) contains $5.69 billion in funding for refugee assistance services, which is three times higher than it was prior to President Joe Biden’s time in office. Paul, the chair of the Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs Committee, said, “The big spenders in Congress are back in DC, hoping to pass a bill that spends billions on refugee benefits despite widespread reports of fraud.

Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said Monday an American takeover of Greenland would amount to the end of the NATO military alliance. Her comments came in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s renewed call for the strategic, mineral-rich Arctic island to come under U.S. control in the aftermath of the weekend military operation in Venezuela. The dead-of-night operation by U.S. forces in Caracas to capture leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife early Saturday left the world stunned, and heightened concerns in Denmark and Greenland, which is a semiautonomous territory of the Danish kingdom and thus part of NATO.

There is some good news within this announcement as Justin Trudeau’s former Deputy Prime Minister to Canada is well known to both President Donald Trump and North American political followers for a decade.Chrystia Freeland was the former lead of the Canadian trade delegation when Trudeau realized he needed to try and offset the economic damage within the renegotiated NAFTA agreement known as the USMCA. Freeland was also the lead attack agent behind the debanking effort against Canadian truckers who opposed the vaccine mandate. In addition to holding Ukraine roots, the ideology of Chrystia Freeland as a multinational globalist and promoter for the World Economic Forum’s ‘new world order’ is well documented.

He’s saying the Democrats are going — and of course, the Democrats are going to investigate you. Why wouldn’t they? It’s closing in on him. And what I’m fearful of, and I think everybody should be, today it’s Venezuela, I don’t know, now they’re talking about Greenland and Mexico, but who knows what they’ll do to try to save him and try to get between the Epstein scandal and Donald Trump, which is going to be hard to do.”

The left-wing candidate in the Democratic primary for Michigan's open Senate seat, Abdul El-Sayed, compared a move to ban Sharia law in Oklahoma to the Trail of Tears. "You can't understand a Sharia ban without understanding the Trail of Tears," El-Sayed told the Oklahoma chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) in October of 2022. "You cannot understand the challenges we face today without understanding white supremacy." El-Sayed, whose remarks have not been previously reported, was commenting on a 2010 Oklahoma ballot measure that prohibited judges from considering Islamic and international law in their rulings. He described the initiative as a part of the "history of racism" in Oklahoma

It’s a proxy war! House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) endorsed embattled Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) for re-election as the fellow New York Democrat faces a tough primary challenge from the left. Mayor Zohran Mamdani backs fellow lefty Brad Lander, the former city comptroller challenging Goldman — showing growing division between the far-left and mainstream Dems. Goldman, a two-term congressman who officially kicked off his re-election campaign Tuesday, is vulnerable because of his support of Israel, while many primary-voting Dems have turned on the Jewish state over the war in Gaza.
