So, yes, there can in fact be several “1-in-1,000-year” floods in the U.S. each year, and it doesn’t tell us anything useful about long-term trends. That statistic does not apply to the entire nation uniformly.

President Trump Announces 35 Percent Baseline Tariff for Canadian Goods Not Covered Under USMCA

President Donald Trump has announced a 35% baseline tariff rate for Canada on all imported goods not currently covered under the soon-to-expire USMCA trade agreement.

“Instead of working with the United States, Canada retaliated with its own Tariffs,” President Trump shared on Truth Social. “Starting August 1, 2025, we will charge Canada a Tariff of 35% on Canadian products sent into the United States, separate from all Sectoral Tariffs.”

During the oval office meeting President Trump said, “as you know [USMCA] terminates fairly shortly. It gets renegotiated fairly shortly.” Then the biggest statement, “this was a transitional deal, and we’ll see what happens, we’re going to start renegotiating that”… “I don’t know if it serves a purpose anymore.” …. “And the biggest purpose it served was, we got rid of NAFTA.”

President Trump is going to exit the trilateral USMCA in favor of two distinctly different bilateral trade agreements between the U.S and Mexico; and the U.S and Canada. The only consideration now is the timing. President Trump is 100% focused on the BIG ECONOMIC PICTURE; it’s not about the politics, it’s all about the economics.

Camarillo Cannabis Farm Co-Founder Donated 10K to Governor Gavin Newsom

As they say, “Follow the Money,” as it will always tell the tale.

According to California public campaign finance records, he also donated $10,000 to California Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2018, and his most recent public political donation was to California Democratic Assemblymember Gregg Hart in July 2023.

Farrar gave the maximum amount a contributor could give to see Newsom elected as governor in 2018. Farrar’s Glass House Brands’ reach and profits grew, due in no small part to Governor Newsom’s loosening restrictions on the cannabis industry in California. It gives all the appearances of a symbiotic relationship, and that this campaign contribution could be merely the tip of the iceberg.

The sources cited in the article are:

A leaked FBI memo, which serves as the key document confirming the closure of the probe and the absence of any “client list” maintained by Epstein.

An anonymous source (described as an insider) speaking to The Sun newspaper, who provided details on Prince Andrew’s self-imposed travel restrictions due to fears of arrest and his relief following the investigation’s end.

Over 11,571 Epstein Documents Currently On Appeal in One FOIA Case with Maureen Comey Involved

But one pending FOIA appeal by two litigants in New York, that the DOJ’s Maureen Comey is due to respond to later this month, has identified at least 11,571 more FBI documents alone related to the Epstein affair, almost all of them as-of-yet unreleased.

This is in addition to the estimated 3 million documents the government gave to Ghislaine Maxwell to prepare for her defense, and they are still active in that case.

The ongoing litigation relates to Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) requests filed by media entities to release Epstein-related documents. The litigation filed by Radar Online and James Robertson over a FOIA originally filed eight years ago involves over 11,571 documents that the FBI already admits are responsive to a search for Epstein documents.

Brilliant. I understand people are thirsty for results, but Trump and his team haven’t even fully cleaned house yet. Activist Dem judges have been obstructing him this entire time. Trump signed this EO in February, and just two days ago, it was finally overturned by the Supreme Court. Clearly there are still leakers and Deep State loyalists embedded within the DOJ/FBI. Wouldn’t it make sense for Trump and his appointees to remove the bad apples first? Patience. There are layers to this.

Trump Attempts to Slow the Inertia of War – Now Sending Weapons to NATO Instead of Ukraine

Everyone can see the play by President Trump. Essentially, the “coalition of the willing” (U.K, Germany, France) are not willing to go to war against Russia without the United States in front of them. Giving the coalition the weapons puts the consequences of their use on the heads of NATO allies.

President Trump does not want to go to war against Russia. Trump has to try and steer the war machine controlled by DC, the Senate, USIC and NATO.

President Trump is now trying to split the baby regarding Russia, by sending patriot missiles and weapons to NATO as opposed to sending them directly to Ukraine.

The shipment of missiles to NATO instead of Ukraine is simply a way of trying to stop direct support,

Putin has said repeatedly that NATO was/is in direct conflict against Russia despite Ukraine not being a NATO member. This conflict with NATO well precedes Putin’s decision to conduct a ‘special military operation’ within Ukraine.

Now, we see through Trump’s approach the dropping of pretenses. Putin was correct. With NATO directly providing the war weapons to Ukraine there is no pretense, no doubt. NATO countries are funding an offensive war against Russia using a non NATO proxy state, Ukraine.

President Donald Trump has stated that America’s NATO allies will be required to pay the full cost for US-made weapons while hinting that some of those arms may eventually be transferred to Ukraine.

“We send weapons to NATO, and NATO is going to reimburse the full cost of those weapons.” He emphasized, “NATO is paying for those weapons, 100%.”

He went on to preview that once the weapons are purchased by NATO allies, “then NATO is going to be giving those weapons” to Ukraine.

Trump is baiting Vladimir Putin to attack France, Germany or the UK in retaliation, which would trigger Article 5; subsequently the USA is drawn into the conflict by agreement, and voilà a full expanded war between NATO and Russia commences.

But why?

Other than Karoline Leavitt’s brief comment on the memo, no one has even assumed authorship of it or presented it officially. To such a bizarre point that people were hypothesizing that the memo was fake. Perhaps a press conference to discuss the memo and its findings, and not a tweet one week later after the controversy has gone viral?

@JDVance

@dbongino

and

@Kash_Patel

. She has also LIED to the American people. I’m told Kash and Bongino are furious with Blondi and the blowback she has caused them with her lack of transparency. Kash Patel and Dan Bongino should call for Blondi’s public resignation today to save themselves and to also push for full transparency into the Epstein files. This is an issue the American people care deeply about. Someone needs to be fired for this. Giving Blondi courtesy to resign is more than she deserves. Trump should just FIRE her.

Loomer received this from sources, then axios picked it up and other spread the propaganda around

whipped into a frenzy, influencers were turning on Trump, Bondi, Kash, Bongino, etc., all over an unofficial leak, from a nefarious source. Now we have official statements via the FOIA federal court filings from Judicial Watch, that the DOJ/FBI confirmed the Epstein situation is NOT resolved, and search efforts for information are STILL ONGOING. Meaning that 99% of the internet overreacted, the sky is not falling, Trump and his appointees are not compromised, and that the investigations are still underway. Much of the information about Epstein, and other Deep State criminality, is not where it’s supposed to be. Trump loyalists are still looking for it. The swamp built in failsafes to protect themselves. The show goes on.

which creates the illusion that everyone is dooming. But have you ever noticed doomers never “ratio” positive Trump news? The likes always far outweigh the comments. And that is because the people who still support and have faith in Trump are the OVERWHELMING majority. Ignore the noise. Keep moving forward. Trump will finish what he started

The question is why was this done, taking a 40000 foot view it looks like the main objective is to divide maga, just like DS divided the country. I believe that Trump and Bondi, FBI put out the info that epstein case was closed, they wanted the DS to make a move before any announcement was made. They see who the leakers are, they woke up sleepers, and they can see which individuals on social is a paid shill or fake maga these are the people trying to keep the information from coming out. . It worked perfectly

“Source close to Dan Bongino….”

“Source close to DOJ says Kash Patel…”

“First reported by Loomer, sources told her…”

“Patel is REPORTEDLY also frustrated…”

“It was reported that Bongino…..”

“FBI, DOJ memo obtained by Axios…”

“According to Axios, Bongino…..”

“CNN reported that Bongino has told people….”

“The Daily Wire reported that Bongino said…”

protected LONG before Trump showed up, or any of his appointees. Dershowitz’s comments here back up the position of the Trump FBI/DOJ that they are still looking for documents, and that many are protected under court order. People are right that a coverup is happening, but it’s not Bondi, Kash, or Bongino doing the coverup. The coverup already happened, and Trump loyalists are trying to get to the bottom of it.

where this is all heading in the next few weeks… I’ve got it confirmed. There’s a conspiracy case that was opened that looks at this window as a very large window. I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a special prosecutor named by Pam Bondi in the next week or two. And why does this become significant? Because you don’t have to necessarily then bring the grand jury or the indictment in Washington, DC… it allows them to go to some place like Florida… This has been going on behind the scenes… This is a REALLY big deal… I think the most likely scenario is a large conspiracy case and it starts in the middle of July 2016, when John Brennan walks into President Obama two days before Crossfire Hurricane is launched… President Obama and Brennan knew… that this was a dirty trick by Hillary Clinton. That would be the first overt act and it would carry through… It allows for a very large series of events to be wrapped into a single conspiracy, and all of them to be brought into the indictment.” Patriots, it’s time. We knew it was heading this way, we kept the faith, but now it’s materializing right in front of our eyes! LFG

https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/1943816680053825898

House’s official statements are pretty much saying Trump is with Bondi, and everyone else on his team, and that the hysteria is unfounded and this idea of division is being intentionally amplified to sow discord. Leavitt is saying that this Bondi/Patel/Bongino saga is merely the latest iteration of the Deep State operation to fracture Trump’s cabinet and obstruct his administration from accomplishing the MAGA agenda. Obviously we will have to wait to see how everything unfolds, but I’m more inclined to give validity to official statements from the Trump White House, than anonymous sources from Axios and clickbait influencers… Patience.

lifetimes, even if you are 100+ years old. Please consider further that the current DOJ, led by Pam Bondi, has done so while causing the Democrats and rogue judges to wholly discredit themselves via sheer narcissistic stupidity. Please consider further that this is all a transformational approach that has completely changed the trajectory of the America justice system and has allowed the enactment of the most significant aspects of the MAGA agenda. Finally, please consider further that the REAL conspiracy is to destroy such success by making MAGAs rabid over Epstein evidence that may or may not exist, thereby wrecking DOJ leadership in the same manner as when Jeff Sessions was sabotaged. I’m pretty good at spotting actual conspiracies to undermine our success, so please consider all I have to say. Your pal, CP
