BREAKING. Iranian MP & National Security Commission spokesperson Ebrahim Rezaei: “We will give a decisive and painful response to the Zionist regime’s attack on Dahiyeh. We must discipline these dogs and put them in their place. Tonight you will see the skies over the occupied territories.” Beirut was Iran’s red line and Israel didn't respect that....
The Pentagon espionage bombshell just got worse... New reporting confirms Israel has been eavesdropping on the American peace negotiators themselves. The targets named: Steve Witkoff, Trump's top negotiator with Iran. Elbridge Colby, the Pentagon's policy chief. And Michael DiMino, who runs Middle East policy. Israel wasn't just collecting on America generally. It was listening to the specific men writing the deal Netanyahu opposes. What's wild is the documented incidents read like operations against an enemy state.
Tulsi Gabbard allegedly received the Israel critical threat report 18 days ago, and resigned three days later. Lt. Col. Anthony Aguilar says the report was deliberately slow-rolled until Section 224 passed the House, giving Israel unprecedented access to U.S. intelligence and defense technology. The U.S. just labeled Israel its most aggressive spy threat and handed them the keys to the vault the same week. "You just robbed the bank. Want to be the bank manager?" (video)
Trump to the Financial Times, minutes ago: Netanyahu will have no choice but to accept whatever deal the US negotiates with Iran, because "I call the shots. I call all the shots. He doesn't call the shots." Trump also confirmed the leaked call in which he reportedly told Netanyahu: "You're fucking crazy. You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. Everybody hates you now. Everybody hates Israel because of this." He did not dispute the characterization.
Iran launched ballistic missiles at Israel tonight… and the footage is straight out of a nightmare.

Can anyone point me to a time where a third place candidate (3 days AFTER an election) suddenly has a surge where they start winning 1st place in every new drop by winning 40% of the votes in the batch? Try not to name a third world country. This is getting absolutely absurd. (video)

WOW! President Trump just said Israel BETTER NOT strike back against Iran, or the peace deal is SCREWED. He tells Axios: "If Bibi strikes them back it’s just gonna keep GOING like the last 47 years, or the last 3000 years!" "The Iranian strikes [on Israel] didn't hurt ANYBODY.

I don’t want it to blow up because of what is happening now!" 47 is CALLING Netanyahu, saying DON'T STRIKE! (video)
HOLY CRAP!! FA US Attorney Bill Essayli reveals not only is California BLOCKING a federal audit of the state's voter rolls......but people can vote with GYM MEMBERSHIP CARDS as proof of ID, along with insurance cards that can be given to illegal aliens. This HAS TO BE BANNED! California is STILL counting ballots, and a lot remain.

@ShaneCashman

There’s literally nothing weird about Thomas Matthew Crooks emailing a deputy from Butler, PA before the assassination attempt. It’s not weird that he practiced shooting at the same range Homeland Security used. It’s not weird that the local police and Secret Service spotted Crooks with a rangefinder, photographed him, and texted about him for over an hour and still let him climb the roof with a rifle. It’s not weird that the Secret Service wasn’t flying drones that day, but Crooks was. It’s not weird that Butler was the first Trump rally of the year with Secret Service anti-sniper agents on the roofs. It’s not weird that Crooks’ house looked like a sterile lab with no trash or silverware. And it’s not weird that his body was cremated ten days later before Congress could see it. This is like when people say the CIA was shadowing Oswald before he, and he alone, shot JFK.

@DavidJHarrisjr

JUST IN: Canada just criminalized the Bible. Bill C-9 has passed the Senate, removing key religious protections and opening the door for Scripture to be treated as “hate speech.” Quoting the Bible on marriage, sin, or God’s design for sexuality can now lead to prosecution for “willful promotion of hatred.” This is a direct attack on Christianity and religious freedom in Canada. Brothers and sisters — the time to stand is now. Pray for Canada. Speak the truth boldly. Defend the Gospel while we still can.

BREAKING: President Trump wants to give every American a piece of OpenAI, Anthropic, and xAI. Speaking on Air Force One yesterday, Trump said the government is exploring a plan where AI companies give the American public a direct ownership stake making every citizen a partner in the AI boom. He plans to meet AI executives next week to discuss it. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman first pitched this idea to Trump in early 2025 proposing that AI companies voluntarily give the US government equity stakes so that ordinary Americans, not just shareholders, benefit from the AI revolution.

@OCOCReport

WARNING: They’re turning American farmers into data slaves. The Palantir–USDA deal “One Farmer, One File” a permanent government digital profile tracking every farmer’s land, finances, crops, and livestock. Drones are already vaccinating cows. Satellites + AI are next. They call it “efficiency.” It’s the infrastructure for total control over America’s food supply. Voluntary today. Mandatory tomorrow. This is how food sovereignty dies. America is being farmed — not the land.

California steals another election as another mail-in ballot drop dumps 450,000 votes putting Xavier Becerra ahead of Trump endorsed Steve Hilton at 26.7%, calling the race for Becerra. Steve Hilton: 26.6% 1,639,335 votes. Xavier Becerra 26.7% 1,655,927 votes. Of course they keep you occupied and the race tight and then steal it at the end. How did Hilton lose so many votes when he was almost at 28% earlier today? FRAUD. (video)

Holy sht.. Hackers are going to love this. Someone open sourced an all-in-one hacking toolkit that bundles every major pentesting tool into a Single CLI menu. You install it once and get instant access to tools across every category from anonymity, info gathering, wireless attacks, password cracking, web scanning, exploit frameworks, payload GENERATION, and more. It's called HackingTool.

@MarioNawfal

A highly controversial clause tucked inside the upcoming defense bill is pushing the Pentagon toward a radical transformation. Ret. Lt. Col. Anthony Aguilar warns that Section 224 of the NDAA effectively establishes an unprecedented legal merger between the U.S. military and the Israeli IDF. From intelligence fusion to a joint checking account style budget, this legislation mandates that our $2 trillion defense apparatus becomes intrinsically combined with Israel. (video)
Israel's Ministry of Defense officially announces formal talks with the U.S. to replace the expiring military aid MOU with what it calls "a completely reciprocal partnership." The framework, explicitly described as "reflecting the strategic vision of Israel's Prime Minister," expands joint investment in research, development, and co-production. Netanyahu's letter called this "my plan." Section 224 wrote it into the defense bill. Now the formal negotiations have begun.

@CENTCOM

Moments ago, CENTCOM forces shot down four Iranian one-way attack drones that were launched toward the Strait of Hormuz. The attack drones posed an immediate threat to regional maritime traffic. U.S. forces subsequently struck Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites in Goruk and on Qeshm Island to defend against further attacks. American forces remain vigilant and postured to respond to unjustified Iranian aggression in self-defense.

@GenXGirl1994

Israel & its lobby are attempting a complete takeover of our gov thru a myriad of bills. One bill virtually no one is talking about is @SenTomCotton’s Section 622, of the FY27 Intelligence Authorization Act which locks US into permanent unbreakable intel entanglement with Israel. (video)

@EthanforMD

Earlier this week, I talked about how Congress is hiding the U.S.–Israel military relationship in the defense bill. There is a second bill that goes further. It makes it law that a president can't pull intelligence sharing back without clearing a legal hurdle, even if you elect one who wants to. (thread)

@WallStreetApes

There needs to be a federal audit into California elections. This is how Democrats steal elections in California. An election worker is seen running through the same huge stack of ballots 3 different times. The same batch is ran, taken out, ran again, and again, and again. Election Fraud Expert and Investigator Joe Hoft even confirmed when this happened in Orange County “The real shocker of this entire episode caught on video is that this all occurred after Orange County received received a bomb threat and before the workers were removed from the ballot counting facility." This happened right before a “bomb threat” was called in. Meaning they were rigging the election, then staged an incident to draw attention away, shift focus and cover it up. Now look at what’s happening in California this election. (video)

The House voted today on a new measure to fuse elements of the Israeli and US militaries, particularly on the cyberweapons front. Section 224, as its known, is included in the National Defense Authorization Act. Rep. Ro Khanna, D-Calif., introduced an amendment to strip it from the bill. Watch as a stream of Republicans and Democrats stand up in support of the enhanced cooperation. Only Rep. Sarah Jacobs (D-Calif.) joined Khanna, and the measure failed in a voice vote.

Spencer Pratt got 0 out of 24,000 votes in a late night LA ballot drop. 0/24,000. A guy getting around 30% support got 0 out of 24,000. Astronomically small probability of happening. Impossible. California no longer even hides it. Doors need to be kicked in. They aren’t even trying to hide it.

No word from Black Lives Matter or Al Sharpton. Not one demand for answers. Not one national outrage campaign. Not even people saying her name.

Her murder was the second horrific attack on MARTA in just one week. I want answers from Atlanta. The number of assaults, robberies, and rapes on MARTA trains is more than three times the national average.

@LightOnLiberty

California Sheriff says their elections are being RIGGED! Your vote in California is being STOLEN by illegals, and they're not even hiding it anymore. Sheriff's investigators uncovered that people from PAKISTAN were voting in California elections. Multiple people living OUTSIDE THE COUNTRY were registered and casting ballots. California's online voter registration system operates on an "honor system" where literally anyone in the world can register to vote by simply clicking a box saying they're not lying. No verification, no citizenship checks. Just click and you're registered. Once you're in the system, you automatically get mailed a ballot for EVERY election! (video)

@bennyjohnson

How did Democrats make election fraud legal in California? We investigated. This is insane. Check this out… Election fraud is institutional and codified into law in California. According to the Secretary of State’s website:

OpenVAERS:

VAERS US COVID Vaccine Adverse Event Reports. 1,033,460 Reports(+295 from prior report) Through April 24th, 2026.

SKirsch.com:

Using the MGH numbers with our own VAERS queries, we have 247 cases per million doses from the MGH study divided by 5.97 cases per million doses from VAERS. 247/5.97 = 41. This suggests that the VAERS under-reporting factor (URF) is 41X
