I am here to tell you that the pundits are wrong: that America First never meant America Alone, that Donald Trump has no intention of dissolving or “shattering” NATO.The Trump foreign policy is not to abandon allies but to force them to stop freeloading, to make them true partners, not surly dependents, and by doing so, across the world, from Europe to the Middle East to Taiwan and Japan, reduce American overreach — paid for endlesssly by the American taxpayer — and replace it with an unassailable alliance that maintains peace through strength.

It is true nationalism: the idea that discrete groups of people should have the right to rule themselves, not to be ruled by a foreign elite in some distant capital, whether London or Moscow or Beijing or Brussels. It is the idea that those nations are responsible to and serve the interests of their own people. And it is the axiom that such nations should be able to defend themselves, not outsourcing their sovereignty but standing upright, individually, or in concert.

Indeed, “the old world is gone.” The order now ushered in is not just different: it’s better.

The following address, above in full video and reprinted in full and beautifully articulating the vision I’m sharing with you, was delivered to the Munich Security Conference on Saturday(2/14) by Donald Trump’s Secretary of State and my former Senator Marco Rubio. In Munich, Secretary of State Marco Rubio buries the old order, defines the new era in geopolitics in which American allies must be true partners, not dependents...and gets a standing ovation. …RDM

Rarely is there a political issue like the SAVE America Act, which is extremely popular with the American people, but lacks support in the upper house of Congress. The SAVE America Act, if voted into law, would put an end to most vote fraud and election irregularities in America. About 80% of voters support the bill, yet it has less than 50% support from U.S. senators.

It is obvious why there is overwhelming support from the people for this legislation. Election integrity is the DNA of America. The legitimacy and moral authority of the country come only from the people who express their preferences for their local, state, and national government officials through free and fair elections. When there is vote fraud and election irregularities, the moral authority of government is compromised, causing the people to disrespect and distrust their own government.

The moral authority of United States is also critical in maintaining regional and world order and peace. The most crucial factor in prevailing against corrupt regimes and dictatorial foreign governments is often the moral authority of the United States. When the U.S. loses its moral authority, as it did during the Biden administration, the deterrent power of the United States is compromised and foreign adversaries are emboldened.

Democrats remind the nation daily that every incumbent president, except three over the last century, has suffered substantial midterm losses in Congress. Polls show President Donald Trump suffering an average 11-point negative unfavorability rating.

But the left will never offer any alternative agenda on the economy, the border, crime or foreign policy.So absent a positive agenda, Democrats will simply run all their state and federal campaigns as if Trump, their satanic monster, is on every ballot.

Behind this stale Democrat boilerplate lies a deep fear that the Nietzschean Trump, just as he beat all their lawfare ambushes, will also do the impossible and avoid losing Congress in November.

And they should fear.  Here’s why…

For half a century, the American Left has done its best to cancel the future.

We were promised nuclear-powered everything. Clean electricity too cheap to meter. Cities in the desert. Ocean liners and maybe even airplanes running on atoms. Nuclear rockets cutting the trip to Mars to months instead of years.

Instead, Democrats gave us rolling blackouts, German-style “energy transitions,” and a never-ending string of hysterical predictions that never came true and for which no one apologized (even if they remembered them at all).

In yet another return to sanity, the Trump administration is now planning to roll back a key Obama administration climate "finding" that was used to regulate the daylights out of energy production in the United States. That Obama-era regulation identified six greenhouse gases requiring regulation, which included CO2.

President Donald Trump's administration is poised to walk back an Obama-era greenhouse gas finding that serves as a lynchpin for justifying climate regulations across the country on Wednesday.

The 2009 "endangerment finding" identifies six greenhouse gases that the Obama administration said pose "a threat to public health and welfare." That harm finding was then used to justify sweeping climate regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), such as raising fuel economy standards and limiting power plant emissions, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday.

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin hailed the move as cutting through government red tape in an interview with the Journal.

Those regulations, of course, were like putting a sea anchor on the economy. It seems Democrats never saw a scheme for jacking up energy costs that they didn't like, and the Obama people were no exceptions. Now we're seeing some of the stupidity reversed.

Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens have gone to the dark side. Disturbingly, their transition seems to have been planned so carefully that they were able to convince their fans not only to follow—but to run full speed ahead into the pit of hell.

Careers that began as critiques of establishment politics have devolved into outlandish conspiracy theories that blend New Age spirituality, esoteric metaphysics, and elaborate claims about the hidden masters of reality and society.  Plus virulent Anti-Semitism.

Coincidentally, both podcasters have fixated on giants lately—those biblical beings that have morphed into symbols of hidden knowledge and elite cover-ups—almost as if scripted from the same fringe playbook.

Both have also been discussing out-of-body experiences (OBEs), with Tucker focusing on psychic spies and Candace discussing astral projection (she claims both she and Charlie Kirk practiced astral projection, which is best described as the non-physical “self” traveling independently—and exploring the physical world as well as other dimensions on the astral plane.)

You can’t make this up, but they have.

Let's get this out of the way right at the start: I have questions but no answers. But, dang, are the questions head-scratchingly fascinating for what they very nearly almost reveal about wartime life in Russia and on the frontlines of the Russo-Ukraine War.

It all started, as so many things do these days, with a popular messaging platform.

In Russia's case, the platform is Telegram, an end-to-end encrypted sharing platform that anyone can use — including soldiers on the battlefield. And this might shock you, but Russian strongman Vladimir Putin respects Telegram's power, and even feted some of its most popular users who just happen to be Russian nationalists unafraid to call Putin's generals to account.

Pretty much everything you get from Russia's official news outlets like RT and TASS reads like Rosy Scenario wrote it, but Telegram milbloggers..  .  .

Dozens of those lined up outside the Hong Kong court where Jimmy Lai was sentenced to 20 years on Monday had been there all night, keeping vigil. They’d camped out so as to be in position to put themselves at risk by standing with Lai, whose only crime was publishing pro-democracy journalism and then refusing to back down.

Courage is contagious, so how right Beijing is to see this 78-year-old Chinese-born UK citizen – “a man unfortunately very close to dying,” his son said on Tuesday – as a threat to lies.

In December, after a two-year show trial, he was found guilty of a conspiracy to collude with foreign forces – meeting with American officials – and a conspiracy to publish seditious materials, a.k.a. facts, in Apple Daily, the popular newspaper he founded in 1995.

“This is a dark day in Hong Kong’s history,” with dissent now treated as a serious crime, one of Lai’s lawyers, Jonathan Price, said at a Tuesday news conference via Zoom.

Press freedom is only a memory in the once-autonomous territory.
