Antwerp, Belgium. A Belgian advertising agency working for Coca Cola hired an actor to laugh at something he was watching on his iPad while riding the Antwerp metro.
What happens is joyously magical. We dare you not to laugh yourself. This is such a wonderful reminder of how beautiful our common humanity is.
OK, it’s the National Enquirer, smirked at by people who pretend they are real journalists working for the Fake New Media. This cover story appeared Wednesday afternoon (7/19).
Yet it got the immediate attention of the London Daily Mail, which ran a huge story that same evening (7/19):
TTP, however, beat them to the punch Wednesday morning with Paul Roderick Gregory’s Is Russiagate Really Hillarygate?
The bad news is that the Democrats’ coup attempt to overthrow the presidency – an act of unvarnished treason in the eyes of many – is proceeding apace. Their first major scalp was Attorney General Jeff Sessions recusing himself from any DOJ investigation of the Collusion Hoax on March 2nd.
So what’s to be done about Mueller? A lot, and here it is…. Welcome to an amazing HFR Ready to learn what the real consequences will be if the Traitor Left succeeds in its coup attempt against Trump? Here we go…

There are few places on earth that evoke more mystery and adventure than the Gobi Desert. We’re going to explore it in October.
What you see above is the Hanging Monastery of Datong. It’s been suspended on a vertical cliff for 1,500 years, where over 100 Confucian, Buddhist, and Taoist monks live and worship today.
In the Gobi, there’s an oasis with the strangest forest on earth, an ocean of giant dunes sprinkled with cobalt blue lakes that many consider the world’s most beautiful desert, mountains candy-striped like rainbows, lost ghost cities, medieval walled cities where people live as they have for centuries, and the greatest treasure trove of ancient Buddhist art on the planet.
Then there’s Crescent Moon Lake.
Let me show all this to you…
We at TTP are so gratified over the tremendous response we got to our survey. So many of you took the time to take it, and to respond with substantive comments. Thank you all!
I thought I’d share with you what we learned – and quote the best comments.
We asked, How long have you been a TTPer? An amazing 77.4% of you have been with us more than three years, 17.4% since the very beginning of TTP in 2003! We have to be doing something right to keep so many of you that long.
We strive to give you “insights and viewpoints not available elsewhere” – and 83% of you agree. You’re interested in history, geopolitics, and a worldwide perspective, not simply the US. And you trust us. That means a lot.
These days, the number of news sites you can trust is shrinking rapidly. The entire “Mainstream Media” in print, television, and the web has become “American Pravda” – a disinformation machine producing nothing but Democrat Agitprop.
To The Point’s goal has always been to be an Oasis for Rational Conservatives. For conservatives to have such an oasis of sanity from all the insanity we’re deluged with 24/7 is more important than ever. We’re so grateful TTPers see this.
According to an insider account – Shattered: Inside Hillary Clinton's Doomed Campaign by Jonathan Allen, released in April – the Clinton team, put together the Russia Gate narrative within 24 hours of her defeat.
The Clinton account claimed that Russian hacking and election meddling caused her unexpected loss. That her opponent, Donald Trump, was a “puppet” of Putin.
Trump, they said, “encourages espionage against our people.” The scurrilous Trump dossier, prepared by a London opposition research firm, Orbis, and paid for by unidentified Democrat donors, formed a key part of the Clinton narrative: Trump’s sexual and business escapades in Russia had made him a hostage of the Kremlin, ready to do its bidding.
That was Hillary's way to say that Trump is really not President of the United States—a siren call adopted by the Democrat party and media. So let’s talk about Hillary and the Orbis dossier.
Stories like this are popping up all over the world. Slowly, deliciously, like a leech starved of blood, the renewable energy industry is withering away and dying.
It can only survive through government enforced subsidies or bribe-incentives. Once those dry up, so does its trade. Renewables are, and always have been, a scam perpetrated by the few against the many.
This is a moment for Americans, once again, to savor just how lucky they are to have a President who doesn’t buy into this green nonsense. President Trump understands instinctively that renewables – apart from killing birds on an epic scale – are just rent-seeking with a smiley green face on top.
So, let’s savor the coming Renewmaggedon.
In early June 2017, Russian media reported that yet another Ground Forces missile brigade received the dreaded road-mobile 9K720 Iskander-M missile system (known in Russian military parlance as an “operational-tactical missile system,” or OTRK in short).
The brigade in question is the 29th Army’s newly established 3rd Missile Brigade, based in Russia’s colossal Eastern Military District (MD).
Formed in December 2016, this brigade was initially armed with the aging 9K79-1 Tochka-U tactical ballistic missile system, then quickly re-equipped with the Iskander-M as part of the Russian Defense Ministry’s plan to phase out all Tochka-Us by 2020.
The district’s three other brigades — the 107th, 103rd and 20th — received their Iskander-M OTRKs in 2013, 2015, and 2016, respectively.
As a result, there are presently more Iskander-M brigades in the Eastern MD than any other district; Russia’s other three military districts (Central, Southern, and Western) currently house two Iskander-M brigades each. What, then, is the purpose of these four brigades?
Note the map above. All four border or are in missile range of China.
Do you mainly fear government or feel protected by it?
The American Founders wrote a Constitution and designed a system of government that sharply limited the powers of the state — because they understood that the greatest danger to the liberty of the people was the necessary evil of government.
The U.S has succeeded because it was based on the rule of law, with strong protections for property rights, and a judicial system based on due process.
There has been a steady erosion of these basic principles and rights over the last 240 years, resulting in the undermining of economic freedom and the loss of much personal liberty.
Below are several examples. It was President Trump in Warsaw last week, as noted in the Wall Street Journal, who provided the antidote.
Research by the World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva, Switzerland has proven that eating ham and salami while drinking a glass of red wine at each meal reduces the risk of becoming a Moslem terrorist by exactly 100%.
Note that it must be red wine – the WHO researchers determined that white wine does not have the same deterrent effect as only girly-men drink white wine.
We’ve gone from the sublime last week to the ridiculous this. Might as well start with the most fun you can have in a minute and a half. Put up on YouTube ereyesterday (7/12).
Fun aside, most of us wish this could happen for real to the scumbags of Fake News – that the headquarters of the New York Times and Time-Warner-CNN in New York and the WaPo in DC could look like Mosul does today with what it took to defeat ISIS:
Fantasy aside, the Twitter hashtag #CNNisISIS is very popular. As is #CNNBlackmail. Hardly anyone tells pollsters they trust the media anymore. It’s comforting to see the entire Fake News propaganda machine of NYT-WaPo-CNN-ABC-NBC-CBS-TIME lose more credibility by the day.
Nonetheless, we should be clearly aware they are calling their plays from Hitler’s playbook. Before our eyes we see how Germans became Nazis in the 30s, as we see left-leaning Americans become a Nazi Left with Whites as the New Jews.
We see how the Fake News Media is following Hitler’s instructions in Mein Kampf (vol. 1, ch. 10) on how to employ the Big Lie:
The Fake News Media’s reaction to President Trump’s magnificent speech in Warsaw last week (7/06) is a true teachable moment.
Honest commentators saw Trump’s expression of pride in and defense of Western Judeo-Christian Civilization on a par with the best speeches of Ronald Reagan and Winston Churchill.
Such sublime presidential eloquence has rarely if ever been matched. Any actual American would applaud and cheer. But not the AINOs (Americans In Name Only) that infest the Fake News Media. They of course were outraged. Possibly because they realized Trump was including them among our adversaries.
Let’s first ignore, however, black racist affirmative action journalists like the WaPo’s Jonathan Capeheart who specialize in guilt-mongering whites. He laughably wrote “Trump’s White Nationalist Dog Whistles in Warsaw” (7/06).
He heard the “loudest of dog whistles” when Trump said We write symphonies. “What on Earth does that have to do with anything?” he asks.
The guy is so stupid that he doesn’t know that the people Trump was speaking to take enormous pride in that one of the greatest composers in human history – Frederic Chopin – was Polish. So much so the Warsaw Chopin International Airport is named after him.
Let’s focus instead on folks like The Atlantic’s Peter Beinart, who wrote “The Racial and Religious Paranoia of Trump's Warsaw Speech” (7/06). There’s only one solution to his problem. Well, there’s one other which we’ll get to later.
Yesterday (7/10) at the White House Press Briefing, President Trump’s Director of Legislative Affairs Marc Short stated:
“The Senate is conducting the slowest confirmation process in American history. For the past six months, Senator Schumer has deliberately run an unprecedented campaign of obstruction against the President’s nominees for high-ranking positions in the government.”
This is absolutely true. Yet all Marc did was to complain – he offered no solutions whatever to a very real and serious problem except to ask Schumer to “stop” – with no threat of specific consequences if he didn’t. Schumer’s response will be a smirk and a shrug.
This is no way to run a country. We all know the source of the problem in Congress – the UniParty of Dems and Rinos that wants to maintain the status quo, keep the Deep State, and do nothing that might jeopardize lobbyists’ donations to them.
Trump is a threat to all this, which is why the UniParty is in collusion against him.
What’s obviously needed is for the White House to replace whiny complaints with specific measures the President will take to force a do-nothing Congress into confirming his nominees and enacting his agenda. Here’s what he can do.
[This is the text of President Trump’s Weekly Address on July 7. Video below]
My fellow Americans,
Here at the White House, we are dedicating the month of July to three of our favorite words – MADE IN AMERICA.
For more than two centuries, those three beautiful words have been the world standard for quality, craftsmanship and excellence – and they still are today.
As President, one of my highest priorities is to restore American Manufacturing.
For decades, American jobs have been ripped out of our communities, industries and towns have been stripped bare, and the entire communities have been uprooted and left. Foreign nations got rich at America’s expense – and many special interests profited from this great global theft of American wealth.
Since taking the oath of office, our government has adopted a new philosophy: AMERICA FIRST – and believe me, it’s about time. The era of economic surrender is over – and a new national pride is sweeping across our land. You see it, I see it, we all see it.
Reflect on this:
Almost every Trump initiative so far—more energy development, tax reform, deregulation, an end to illegal immigration, luring capital and jobs back into the United States, renegotiating trade deals, realist deterrence abroad, and mockery of political correctness—earns wide public approval.
Meanwhile…
Every time a MSNBC talking head, a NeverTrump New York pundit, an identity politics functionary, a Hollywood celebrity, a campus Pajama Boy, a Silicon Valley master of the universe, or a Democrat functionary attacks Trump, he ends up sounding either snobbish, hypocritical, or parochial—and thereby energizes the Trump populist message.
Trump is hated not because he is proposing radical new solutions, but because he believes that the last eight years were deviant and not characteristic of the American experiment.
Trump will succeed because his presidency is a return to normalcy.. His haters will fail because they have become rabidly extremist.
Tangier Island – America’s “soft crab capital” – is in the middle of Chesapeake Bay, about an hour’s boat ride from the Virginia mainland, rises only a few feet above the waterline and has been slowly eroded by the sea since it was first colonized in the 1600s.
Now its 500 remaining residents are desperate for federal support because it is on the verge of disappearing.
When they asked for support from Donald Trump to help them build a wall – a sea wall, this time, to hold back the eroding waves – the President called them to discuss the situation (6/14).
The story about Trump’s call prompted a barrage of hate from outsiders. Their crime, apparently, was to blame the island’s plight on natural erosion and not rising sea levels caused by man-made climate change. And voting 87% for Trump.
