It Wasn’t a Leak, It was a Devious “Charlie Foxtrot”

Charlie Foxtrot is a polite euphemism for a crude military term — Clusterfu*k. That describes the first scandal of the Trump Administration. Somehow, whether deliberate or accidentally, a Zionist journalist by the name of Jeffrey Goldberg was added to a Signal chat by Trump’s National Security Advisor, Michael Waltz, or by someone who worked for Waltz. Goldberg suddenly found himself part of a group chat of Trump’s top defense, diplomatic and intelligence officials. The group included CIA Director Ratcliffe, DNI’s Tulsi Gabbard, and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, among other luminaries.

If you are not familiar with Signal, you create a group chat by naming a group and then adding members from your list of contacts. This tells us that Goldberg was part of Waltz’s list of contacts. Goldberg is a particularly slimy character, not because he published portions of the chat, but because he behaved as a political hack instead of a journalist. A journalist with that unexpected access, would have written an immediate story announcing that the US was going to start bombing Yemen just to make an example of it. What did Goldberg do? He waited till the bombing happened and then hoisted the Trump gang on its own petard. He made the story about Charlie Foxtrot, which he published on Monday in The Atlantic magazine.

This was not a leak. This was a gift to Goldberg. While the contents of the chat are not officially classified, the information being discussed was operationally sensitive. The chat exposed most of the Trump team as shallow and dismissive of the military and diplomatic implications of the decision to start bombing Yemen.

If Waltz and company wanted to discuss the pros and cons of bombing Yemen, he should have convened a Secure Video Conference, aka SVTC (pronounced, CIVITS).

Pete Hegseth’s remarks to the press, responding to the Goldberg article, makes a solid case that he is not qualified to serve as Secretary of Defense. Instead of admitting that this was a fu*kup on the part of Waltz, he decided to attack Goldberg. Moreover, he pretends that the US was hitting hardened, military targets.

The Democrats Are the Party of Hate

Back in the Vietnam War era, many protesters on college campuses were proud Democrats who chanted slogans about “peace” and “love.” They flashed the peace sign and railed about the war and police brutality while professing support for “free speech.”

Never mind that the Vietnam War was escalated by a Democrat President and ended by a Republican President, these protesters claimed that they were “non-violent” and that the federal government, and especially Republican politicians, were trying to limit their freedoms.

Flash forward to today and the political world has totally changed. Democrats have become the pro-war party. For example, the only part of President Donald Trump’s recent speech to Congress that Democrats applauded was his statement about support for Ukraine. Under President Joe Biden, nothing was done to end the war in Ukraine, only prolong it.

Democrats hate President Trump’s outreach to Russian President Vladimir Putin and his attempts to end the Ukraine war. They continually slander President Trump and claim he is “Putin’s puppet.” Of course, the truth is the antithesis of these ludicrous charges by warmonger Democrats. No President has been tougher toward Russia than Trump. The difference is that Trump wants peace and Democrats do not.

Trump has been a lightning rod for unhinged Democrats since the day he descended the golden escalators and announced his first presidential campaign. The epidemic of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” has never subsided.

In the 2016 campaign, there were multiple instances of violent Democrats attacking Trump supporters at his rallies across the country. In the 2020 campaign, leftists attacked police, burned buildings, and committed detestable violence in the “summer of love,” which was inspired by the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

President Trump Drops a BOMB on 2020 Election! “It was a Very Corrupt Election… I Won by a Lot. You’re Going to Find that Out. The Documents are There!”

President Trump sat for an interview with Vince Coglianese on Wednesday.

During their conversation, President Trump made news when he spoke about what his administration will explose.

Trump told Coglianse that the 2020 election was very corrupt and that, “I won by a lot. You’re going to find out. The documents are there!”

Can’t wait to see that!

We all knew Joe Biden did not get 81 million votes. It looks like President Trump is planning on exposing the massive fraud in 2020 – and he has the receipts.

President Trump: There’s been a lot of cheating going on… People have never seen anything like it, and we have to stop it.

Vince Coglianese: One of the law firms that you’ve been going after, Perkins Coie, which was responsible for contracting a guy called Christopher Steele to draw up a huge document of lies about you that led to all sorts of Trump-Russia collusion allegations for years. You announced yesterday that you also are declassifying all of the documents from the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, from what they call Crossfire Hurricane in the FBI. What do you think people are going to learn from those documents?

President Trump: I think they’re going to learn how corrupt the election was. It was a very corrupt election. You’re talking about the second election, I assume. That was an election that I won. I won by a lot. You’re going to find that out. The documents are there. The numbers are there. We won that by a lot. We won three elections, and we did very well in the second one. Now, the third one, we blew it away. The third one, we said, Too big to rig, and it was too big to rig. But that second election was the COVID nightmare, and a lot of that had to play. But that was a rigged election, totally rigged.

Payback: J.D. Vance calmly gives Denmark a real reason to be paranoid since they’re asking for it

Former U.S. diplomat Stephen Helgesen, who now lives in Denmark, has an interesting post today describing public sentiment in Denmark, which is almost universally, and quite hatefully, opposed to President Trump. He writes that it’s little different in Greenland, having access to their presses from his perch in Denmark as well.

For Americans, it’s become obvious enough from second lady Usha Vance’s planned visit to Greenland, which was greeted with an amazing amount of rage and paranoia from the Danes, some of the Greenlanders, and anti-American eurotrash all over the rest of Europe.

Helgesen writes:

… the Danish and Greenlandic press were quick to point out that they saw the arrival of two Hercules air transport planes show up at their civilian airport a few days ago as a bridge too far. To mix metaphors, America had crossed the Rubicon. The optics were, admittedly, bad for America. It looked like an invasion, albeit a benign one with armored vehicles and a few dozen security personnel. The Danes ended up sending a hundred or so Danish police from mainland Denmark seemingly as a countermeasure.

All this, to view an annual dogsled race on a remote iceblock island with a population of 59,000.

Now, one could argue that the incidental security sent might have seemed overdone to the Danes and Greenlanders, given that the locals are not used to this kind of attention, and might not even need major security.

Yet it was an overreaction, all the same. The security was likely standard operating procedure for the U.S. in this age of multiple assassination attempts on President Trump and the Secret Service can’t be too careful.

So instead of just dismissing it as Americans in action and going about their business, the Danes and their coevals decided to go bonkers, reading the big entourage from a major public figure from a major nation as an invasion force.

They howled. They organized protests. And they treated Mrs. Vance, who only wanted to make friends with them in a public diplomacy mission, as well as learn about their culture, as a menace to their existence.

Private Contact Info and Passwords of Trump’s Top Security Officials — Including Mike Waltz, Tulsi Gabbard, and Pete Hegseth — Reportedly Found Online via Hacked Data and Search Engines

The private contact information of key members of President Donald Trump’s top security circle — including Mike Waltz, Tulsi Gabbard, and Pete Hegseth — has reportedly been exposed online through hacked databases and commercial people search engines.

The bombshell report comes from Germany’s Der Spiegel, which confirmed that the personal phone numbers, email addresses, and even passwords of these high-level officials can now be accessed by virtually anyone — including foreign intelligence agencies.

According to the news outlet, “The reporters used commercial people search engines along with hacked customer data that has been published on the web.”

According to the report, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth were among those whose personal data was discovered in online leaks.

Spiegel journalists say they were able to link the exposed phone numbers to active WhatsApp and Signal accounts, raising serious concerns that foreign adversaries may have had — or still have — access to critical communications.

“Hostile intelligence services could use this publicly available data to hack the communications of those affected by installing spyware on their devices. It is thus conceivable that foreign agents were privy to the Signal chat group in which Gabbard, Waltz and Hegseth discussed a military strike,” according to the German news outlet.

Authoritarian Clickbait: Trump’s Spectacle Distracts From His Corporate Power Grab

Traditionally, authoritarian regimes were defined by their capacity to control information. Critics were silenced, press outlets were shuttered, and opposition voices were imprisoned or worse. Power was exercised through fear, secrecy, and violence. But in President Donald Trump’s America, authoritarianism has evolved. It no longer hides behind walls of censorship—it thrives in plain sight.

Trump’s political style isn’t about suppressing attention. It’s about seizing it. Whether threatening to annex Greenland “one way or another,” mocking Canada as the “51st state,” or pressuring Columbia University to abandon free speech protections, the goal isn’t to avoid controversy. The aim is to create it.

This shift reflects a deeper transformation in how power is exercised in the 21st century. In a world governed by algorithms, virality, and information overload, authoritarianism no longer seeks silence—it seeks spectacle. Trump’s provocations are not mere outbursts. They are designed and timed to dominate headlines, crowd out serious scrutiny, and keep the public in a state of reactive agitation.

These performances are not without precedent. But in Trump’s case, the provocation is the point. His administration has leaned into fascist-style imagery, with symbolic salutes, rallies drenched in nationalism, and open threats against political dissidents—both foreign and domestic. But this isn’t authoritarianism for the sake of totalitarian control. It’s authoritarianism repurposed for an attention economy—where outrage drives clicks, and distraction enables deeper, quieter abuses of power.

US Intel Report Blasts Jolani’s Forces For ‘Violence, Instability’ In Syria

The US Department of National Intelligence acknowledged in its Annual Threat Assessment of 2025 that Syrian government forces were responsible for the massacres committed against minorities on Syria’s coast earlier this month. 

“The fall of president Bashar al-Assad’s regime at the hands of opposition forces led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) – a group formerly associated with Al-Qaeda – has created conditions for extended instability in Syria and could contribute to a resurgence of ISIS and other Islamist terror groups,” the report noted, adding that “HTS-led interim government forces, along with elements of Hurras al-Din and other jihadist groups, engaged in violence and extrajudicial killings in northwestern Syria in early March 2025 primarily targeting religious minorities that resulted in the death of more than 1,000 people, including Alawite and Christian civilians.”

The report went on to say that “some remaining jihadist groups refuse to merge into the HTS Ministry of Defense, and ISIS has already signaled opposition to HTS’s call for democracy and is plotting attacks to undermine its governance.”

It also highlights that Syrian transitional president Ahmad al-Sharaa, who headed HTS and its precursor group the Nusra Front, “claims to be willing to work with Syria’s array of ethno-sectarian groups to develop an inclusive governance model.” Yet, these groups are skeptical of his intentions, therefore “protracted negotiations could devolve into violence.”

The massacres took place in early March in Syria’s coastal cities and surrounding towns and villages after an armed uprising launched by militants affiliated with Syria’s former army. 

During a widescale security operation to quell the uprising, the Syrian Military Operations Department – consisting of numerous extremist factions who have been incorporated into the country’s new army – carried out a massive campaign of executions.

Jeffrey Goldberg Accidentally Proved His ‘Signalgate’ Narrative Is a Hoax

The Democrats’ latest effort to manufacture a Trump administration scandal blew up in their faces this week after Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, reported that he was somehow included in an encrypted Signal chat group with top administration officials discussing a planned attack on Houthi rebels in Yemen. According to Goldberg, officials discussed classified and/or top-secret war plans.

No one disputes that Goldberg was erroneously included in the chat, but the real issue is whether classified or top-secret war plans were actually discussed.

CIA Director John Ratcliffe and DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard testified that nothing classified or top secret was discussed in the chat. Others in the administration have said the same thing.

Goldberg had been given the opening to release the chats in their entirety to prove them wrong. But he insisted that he wouldn’t.

During an interview on The Bulwark Podcast with Tim Miller, Goldberg repeatedly evaded calls to produce evidence, raising serious questions about the credibility of his claims.

Miller directly challenged Goldberg, pointing out that top Trump administration officials had accused him of lying. “Now, the Secretary of Defense and the White House Press Secretary have said you’re lying, have said there are no war plans there, have said there’s no classified information,” Miller stated. “So the obvious question is, shouldn’t you now demonstrate it? Shouldn’t you publish the text?”

55 Ways That Everything That You Think That You Own Is Being Systematically Taken Away From You

The entire system has been designed to generate as much revenue from your activity as possible until someday you eventually drop dead.  

It is tax season, and that means that it is time to feed the largest and most bloated government in the history of the entire planet once again.  Of course the federal income tax is just one of the ways that they are systematically draining your wealth.  As you will see below, there are literally dozens of taxes that Americans must pay each year.

 Many of our politicians seem to revel in inventing ways to extract money out of us, and that needs to stop.

Most Americans are working extremely hard, and yet money seems to keep going out the other end faster than it is coming in.

The truth is that the entire system has been designed to take what you have away from you.

There are many ways that this is accomplished – taxation, inflation, debt, interest, fines, fees, tickets, government seizures and good old-fashioned corporate greed.

If you decided to just sit back and do nothing but hold on to the wealth that you already have, you would find out that it would disappear quite rapidly.

It is not an accident that most Americans are experiencing a declining standard of living.  The system is rigged, and the rigging has not been in our favor.

Domestic Terrorism: Now, Then… and Tomorrow?

From a fairway at West Palm Beach last summer to a burning Tesla dealer lot in Oregon in January, domestic terrorism is making its biggest comeback since 1970, when three members of Weather Underground managed to blow themselves up instead of their target.

Most of the recent spate of attacks have been driven by either religion or lefty ideology, with only a few outliers. The New Year’s Eve death-by-car attack in New Orleans by Muslim radical Shamsud-Din Jabbar was particularly awful, leaving at least 14 dead and injuring nearly 60 others. The Biden-era FBI played its bit until the bitter end of that administration, saying on January 14 that they would “continue to work around the clock to determine what motivated” Jabbar.

Maybe check into his ISIS membership and his promise to deliver “war between the believers and the disbelievers,” big guy. 

Then there are the lone crazies like Thomas Matthew Crooks, who put a bullet through Donald Trump’s ear and murdered Corey Comperatore in June, but who might have helped inspire Ryan Wesley Routh to make his own attempt on Trump’s life two months later. Routh seems to have been motivated by rage — rage that was surely fed by years of “Literally Hitler” attacks on Trump. 

If Crooks had shot Biden in the ear, we’d have endured a mandatory national kumbaya lockdown in which conservatives would have been made to repent for our sins. Routh seems to have been completely unpersoned out of existence. 

Keeping these stories alive about domestic terrorism — actual threats to our nation —  isn’t easy but we’re making it as easy as possible for you to help us during our 60% off FIGHT promotion. You get access to all kinds of exclusive content (and even a private messaging system with your favorite writers) and we stay in the fight.

This next item is a bit of an aside, but it goes to the heart of what we’re up against with the big media/big digital players and the radicals willing to use violence to undo the results of the last election. 

I asked ChatGPT to put together timelines of both assassination attempts, but it insisted that the second one never happened. When I repeated the question, ChatGPT practically scolded me, claiming, “There is no evidence or documentation of an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a Florida golf course in 2024.”

On the third attempt, I had to feed ChatGPT material that rival Grok produced to force it to admit the Routh attempt even happened. 

Having been born the spring after the Summer of Love, I’m certainly too young to remember anything from the ’60s, but I am a student of history, and the current wave of domestic terrorism has a different feel to it. Fewer organized groups like the Black Panthers and the Weather Underground and more sole practitioners were called to action on social media. 

The good news is that with Pam Bondi heading up the Attorney General’s office, we have a chief law enforcement officer who is serious about this stuff. It didn’t take Bondi long to declare that “The swarm of violent attacks on Tesla property is nothing short of domestic terrorism,” and to announce that the Department of Justice had already charged several individuals. Perhaps more importantly, Bodni promised an investigation into those “operating behind the scenes to coordinate and fund these crimes.”
