Let’s talk about three lies and a truth this week in the world of politics.
I know, there are obviously so many more lies, but managing the onslaught coming at the American people so fast these days is liking dodging cars while running across a busy highway.
One lie has to do with Alligator Alcatraz, let’s begin there.
It’s not that this prison does not exist – it does.
In fact, according to poor little Google whose agenda is so obvious, “Alligator Alcatraz is a newly established migrant detention facility in Florida’s Everglades, designed to house up to 5,000 detainees amid significant environmental and humanitarian concerns.”
Probably not the best place to hang out, no.
I’ve heard so many passionate blue people with hate and anger in their voice demand to know why Trump would allow such a place to exist.
Do you have any ideas?
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis did go ahead and squash the lies that are out there now explaining the quiet part aloud about Alligator Alcatraz.
It’s one that does not fit the oligarch news media’s agenda, and it wouldn’t incite enough anger and fear in “people” if it weren’t reported ad nauseam to the fearmongers. And yes, there is some truth thrown in for good measure to keep the matrix dwellers uncertain of anything.
Turns out when you are brought to Alligator Alcatraz as an illegal alien, the first thing DHS does is offer the person the ability to take a flight back to their home country at federal expense.
DeSantis explained, “No one has to go to Alligator Alcatraz. The illegals are given the right to simply self deport not even at their expense. The ones who end up in the processing center have rejected that offer.”
The second lie was the Republicans all voted to keep the Epstein files sealed.
It would have never been that simple, so why did you believe it?
Georgia Congressperson Marjorie Taylor-Greene said in an interview, “It’s being reported House Republicans unanimously voted to block the release of the Epstein files, and I want to straighten out the record. That is not true. If I could vote to release the files you would have my vote. It was a procedural vote and we have these votes all the time. It is called a PQ and that means voting on the previous question. If the Democrats had won the previous question, which I know sounds insane, it’s a rule in the house – they would control the house floor and that means they could mention anything. For example, they could bring up impeachment articles on Trump or anything and force votes on these items. That is what we voted against – we never allow Democrats to have control of the House floor because we control the House floor.”
In other words, the vote Epstein yes or no was not that cut and dry.
Yet the media, the blue people, and those who did not understand made it a big story and tried to sensationalize it.
Watching the chess moves this week though, there’s no way Trump could have gotten the Dems so gung-ho on getting that list released if he hadn’t played stupid about NOT releasing it.
The blue played right into his hands [again].
The third lie – and the biggest of the bunch – is the Obama Russian involvement during the 2016 presidential election.
Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard declassified quite a few documents from the 2016 mess last week.
The bottom line is – no matter how you want to spin it – the facts have come out the Obama Administration manufactured and politicized intelligence during Trump’s 2016 election.
The documents released by Gabbard describe secret meetings after Trump’s victory where Obama officials directed the intel community to leak reports that Putin was personally involved in the US election hack. The intelligence community repeatedly determined s Russia was not trying to influence the election by cybermeans.
Gabbard said, “The issue of these documents does not just affect Democrats or Republicans; this is an issue with such significant impact that it should concern every American because it has to do with the fabric and integrity of our Democratic Republic. The intelligence community assessed essentially Russia does not have the tools, the capability or the intent to try to change the outcome of the US presidential election.”
Gabbard actually released over 100 documents detailing how Obama and his team attempted to influence the outcome of the US election that Trump won in November 2016.
“This document was then used as the foundation for everything that came next,” Gabbard explained. “It was essentially a year’s long coup that was launched against President Trump before he even had the opportunity to take his oath of office and be sworn in as President of the United States.”
Here is the press release of the findings: www.dni.gov/index.php/newsroom/press-releases/press-releases-2025/4086-pr-15-25 from Gabbard’s office.
The release also goes on to mention Obama officials leaked false statements to media outlets, including The Washington Post, claiming, “Russia has attempted through cyber means to interfere in, if not actively influence, the outcome of an election.”
There is also mention of Jan. 6, 2017 noting, “A new Intelligence Community Assessment was released that directly contradicted the IC assessments that were made throughout the previous six months. After months of investigation into this matter, the facts reveal this new assessment was based on information that was known by those involved to be manufactured i.e., the Steele Dossier or deemed as not credible.”
This was politicized intelligence that was used as the basis for countless smears seeking to delegitimize President Trump’s victory, two Congressional impeachments, and high level officials being investigated, arrested, and thrown in jail.
Through these discovery’s, Gabbard was stalwart in her concern for the bigger issue – the American people.
“The issue I am raising is not a partisan issue. It is one that concerns every American. The information we are releasing today clearly shows there was a treasonous conspiracy committed by officials at the highest level of our government,” she said.
All the documents Gabbard released have now been referred to the Department of Justice for the purpose of accountability and action.
So those are the three lies.
And now, one truth.
Remember how Obama always said he wanted to be a third-term president, which is not possible in the United States.
Well, maybe Obama played the game better than we thought, because in 2024 he logged into the West Wing on 310 days out of 365. His entry was “Joe Time” from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
I wonder if Obama ever wore a Biden mask during an outing and played the part too.
This entire mess is not going away anytime soon.
As the veil thins however and the truth and lies come out more each day, I believe stories like this will continue to be exposed.
We must ask ourselves, however, will we do something about it or will the cageless prison keep fear in the hearts of the weak thus meaning the narrative will not change only the melting faces of those exposed and shamed, but not made to be held accountable.
