Kamala Harris campaign dying

The Kamala Harris campaign is gasping for breath, as a critical-care patient does shortly before dying. Even one of Donald J. Trump’s most vicious detractors among evangelical or “born-again Christians” will no longer deny the signs. At the same time, two other Christian apologists have discovered that tens of millions of self-identifying Christians do not even plan to vote, and are asking them to reconsider.
Kamala Harris campaign and its dying breaths
Recall that your editor has a medical degree. He earned that in part through core clinical clerkships that exposed him to patients breathing their last as he watched. Heart- and lung-disease specialists, and critical-care specialists (at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, the Anesthesiology Department also manages all Intensive Care Units), speak of agonal respirations. These are the hesitating breaths a patient takes until at last the patient expels all air from his lungs.
So what are the agonal respirations of the Kamala Harris campaign? Erick-Woods Erickson listed them. He’s not talking about the ...

Extinctionism – older than you think

Elon Musk occasionally likes to highlight a particular person or issue that concerns him, by posting about it on X. With one hundred fifty-nine million followers, he can make that person or issue “go viral” with a single post. Today he left two posts, on a subject that has concerned him for well over a year: extinctionism. Indeed he went so far as to say that extinctionism is the real ideological threat to humanity.

Extinctionism – what is it, and who actively propounds it?

Extinctionism means seeking the extinction of the human race. Even that concept, as extreme as it sounds, encompasses a broad spectrum of ways to achieve that end. Elon Musk highlighted one of them in his two posts:

https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1710394306572251409

Les U. Knight founded the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement, abbreviated VHEMT (pronounced Vehement, “because that’s what we are,” says Knight.) Its method is simple: let all human beings abstain from reproduction. Thus the human race would die off by simple attrition. If everyone adopted that ...

Election 2020 case breaking wide-open

The Election of 2020 has already gone down in history as one of America’s most execrable and least excusable failures. A physical Ground Zero has proved difficult to locate. But Fulton County, Georgia (seated in Atlanta) is the most likely candidate for an Election 2020 Ground Zero. Not only did the infamous Suitcase Scandal break there, but a failed Democratic primary candidate has suspected skulduggery in Georgia figuring in her own loss. Also, the Fulton County District Attorney tried to prosecute Donald J. Trump during his political exile that began with Election 2020. (Follow this link for all Election 2020 news and opinions on CNAV.)

Now the tables, and the worm, have turned. Yesterday the FBI – adding new meaning to the phrase “under new management” – raided an “Election Hub” in Atlanta. For more than twelve hours they carted away the physical ballots, or at least those whom Atlanta election officials had not destroyed. This represents vindication for President Trump, of course. But it also creates a moment that election-integrity advocates must seize. It will prove that “The Machines” worse than failed us. City and county registrars, take note! After this you will have no further excuse to retain “The Machines,” regardless of make or model.

Review of the Election 2020 allegations

As everyone remembers – half in delight, half in outrage – America went to bed on the night of Election 2020 expecting one result, then woke up the next morning to the opposite result. The infamous “Stairstep Graph” of Biden’s votes jumping above Trump’s votes, best illustrated the switch. But the worst scandal of all broke in the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. There, “poll managers” (Chief Officers of Election) told “poll watchers” (election observers) and reporters to go home. A water main had broken, they said, causing leaks and flooding. But surveillance footage captured the OOEs hauling papers and supplies out from under black cloth-draped tables. These included pre-filled-out ballots, which they fed into their scanner-tabulators – often three times.

America knows the eventual outcome. Decision Desk Headquarters triumphantly declared Joe Biden the winner. But rumors started to fly immediately. Nor did those rumors involve Atlanta alone. The country heard of:

Philadelphia OOEs shoving election observers aside and often calling the police to have them arrested (or threatened with arrest).
Drivers of mail trucks making midnight intermediate stops, only to find their loads gone, with no checking of bills of lading or any other normal check.
Midnight deliveries of what appeared to be ballots – using snack trucks – to inner-city counting centers with covered windows. That episode happened in Detroit, Michigan.
Network television showing vote totals for Trump rolling back during the program.

Then they heard of Eric Coomer, then with Dominion Voting Systems, and his infamous conference call:

It won’t be [fornicating] Trump. I made [fornicating] sure of it.

False judgments and settlements

Dominion Voting Systems later won a nearly billion-dollar settlement from Fox News, after a judge said Fox had defamed them. But that settlement is a trifle compared to the now demonstrably false judgments of the January 6 Event. January 6 is, of course, the date when a new Congress officially certifies a Presidential vote at Electoral College level. On that day, perhaps 200,000 people crowded onto the National Mall to hear President Trump speak. He was twenty minutes late in speaking, and other conservative activists and politicians spoke before him. (One of them: then-State Sen. Amanda F. Chase, R-Chesterfield, Virginia.)

When Trump did speak, he urged people to “walk quietly to the Capitol, to make your voices heard.” That was all. But more than two hundred people entered the Capitol without an invitation. Capitol Police showily evacuated the House chamber where the count was taking place. Outside, a squad of Capitol Police fired rubber bullets into an inoffensive crowd. That started a melee that ended with tear gas partly obscuring the Western Portico.

Smart people turned tail and evacuated the city by every possible means. Almost all who tried to get out, did get out. Those who did not, faced the out-of-control rage of the Democratic Party, now in complete control of the federal government. That Party weaponized the United States District Court and Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. For all of CNAV’s coverage of the January 6 Event, follow this link.

How might they have stolen Election 2020?

CNAV considers that the evidence conclusively establishes these two facts:

Fraud, not legitimate electoral chance, decided Election 2020.
The same cadre that defrauded Trump of victory, laid on a false-flag pseudo-operation on January 6, 2021.

The fraud on Election 2020 included manipulation of:

Media accounts of how Joe Biden and his son acted and behaved before “early voting” started,
Mail-in ballots, many of which went to one address for twenty people (give or take), and/or came back in pristine condition – with votes for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris only, and
Electronic voting machines, including Ballot Marking Devices (BMDs) and/or Scanner-Tabulators.

Did it involve manipulation of electronic pollbooks (EPBs)? No hard evidence on this point is available – yet. But manipulation of the voter roll, at some point, did happen. Several voters complained when chief OOEs told them they had already voted – when they had not. What had actually happened was that someone obtained an absentee ballot in their name.

As the year began, another event occurred that might not at first seem relevant. Elements of Delta Force, with the assistance of 150 aircraft and a carrier task group, raided Venezuela. Their biggest prizes: President Nicolás Maduro and his wife. Alive – and talking. Talking, among other things, about election fraud in the U.S. and in 74 other countries. Then the Election Oversight Group delivered a report to the FBI and the Justice Department, listing twenty-six irregularities.

The FBI gets a warrant and acts on it

The FBI asked for – and got – a criminal warrant to search for and seize:

All physical ballots from Election 2020. That means everything, including mail-in ballots, early-voting ballots, and in-person Election Day ballots.
The tapes from all the scanner-tabulators used for Election 2020. This means all tapes, including zero, poll opening, and poll closing tapes.
Ballot images produced on Election Day, during the “recount,” and at any other time. And critically:
The voter rolls for Fulton County, as annotated during mail-in ballot handling, early voting, in-person voting, and any other time.

https://x.com/bluestein/status/2016624170293956723

A Chief Officer of Election, like your editor, will understand best of all the importance of these demands. With these materials, one can run a true forensic audit, not a mere recount, of an election. The FBI got the warrant because any judge could see that Fulton County violated every rule in the book about fair and secure elections.

On Wednesday, January 28, the FBI showed up with two Big Rigs that they rented from Enterprise Rentals. They removed more than 700 boxes of materials and carted them to the FBI compound in Quantico, Virginia.

https://x.com/RudyGiuliani/status/2016692923828482279

But before those trucks left, Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, posed with one of the loads for a snapshot. She even had a cellphone in her hand in the shot. That last made Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) furious.

Either Director Gabbard believes there was a legitimate foreign intelligence nexus – in which case she is in clear violation of her obligation under the law to keep the intelligence committees “fully and currently informed” of relevant national security concerns – or she is once again demonstrating her utter lack of fitness for the office that she holds by injecting the nonpartisan intelligence community she is supposed to be leading into a domestic political stunt designed to legitimize conspiracy theories that undermine our democracy.

https://x.com/MarkWarner/status/2016722915513753672

https://x.com/MarkWarner/status/2016722918365897127

Several X users, replying to the posts in the above thread, were not impressed.

Evidence of wrongdoing in Election 2020 already emerging

The vituperative reactions by Sen. Warner might in itself be evidence of skulduggery at the crossroads. After all, the guilty scream the loudest about detection and enforcement actions. Consider also the reaction of Fulton County Commissioner Dana Barrett. After first denouncing an investigative reporter for “spreading conspiracy theories,” she fled the scene.

https://x.com/David_Khait/status/2016620272925716572

Or Sens. Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) and Adam Schiff (D-Calif.):

https://x.com/ossoff/status/2016717119719649335

https://x.com/atrupar/status/2016706207667327029

https://x.com/SenAdamSchiff/status/2016663991980835098

Evidence of wrongdoing, or at least irregularity, was already accumulating:

Registered voters listing empty lots, homeless shelters closed for the last ten years, and other such unlikely “residence” addresses.
Tens of thousands of votes with no ballot image to show for them.
Scanner-tabulator tapes without OOE or even chief’s signatures – tapes from tabulators the county did not even use for early voting.
Tabulators allegedly used for early voting, which the county elections board had no record of possessing.
Over three thousand duplicate ballots added to the total machine count.

This morning, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) appeared on Meet the (De)Press(ed). Hostess Kristen Welker lost her temper, accusing Johnson of aiding and abetting a sore loser, i.e., Trump.

FBI SAC fired; evidence now appearing

The Gateway Pundit implicates even Special Agent Paul Brown, FBI, the Special Agent-in-charge (SAC) of FBI Field Office Atlanta. In response to that report listing 26 irregularities, Brown sent a letter asking for the voluntary production of some (not all) of the election materials the warrant listed. He was unprofessional enough to spell several words wrong: “tallie” for tally, and “pole” (as in vaulting or dancing) for poll.

https://x.com/canncon/status/2017427160974213251

MSNOW (formerly MSNBC) reports that the FBI reassigned Brown before they moved.

Now that the FBI has the physical ballots in hand, they are finding other things election-integrity activists have long alleged. Most damningly, activists alleged that election officials received pre-printed mail-in ballots. We now see that those ballots arrived with none of the creases one would expect from returning the ballot in a standard No. 10 envelope. Furthermore, the “marking bubbles” are either perfect (as no human can achieve), or show exactly the same flaws from multiple ballots from multiple voters.

Election 2020 and moving forward: an analysis

Reversing an election after another election has intervened (which the original “loser” won) would do more harm than good. But the country must take steps to prevent a recurrence. So anyone having guilty knowledge of this disgraceful affair, deserves to go to prison. Prison serves as more than a deterrent: it prevents the malefactors from making any further mischief.

Beyond that, the country must restructure elections so that no one can “do it again.” Distinguishing between “guilty” and “not-guilty” voting “machines” would also be useless. Election Systems and Software, the main competitor to Dominion Voting Systems (the vendor-of-choice in Georgia), has proved vulnerable to “gimmicking,” or at least faulty programming, of its ExpressVote® Ballot Marking Device. Two years ago, Elon Musk, Technocrat Extraordinaire, plumped for an all-paper voting system.

https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1801977467218853932

Musk also crucially moved against the foreign servers that were going to “steal” the Election of 2024.

France votes on paper, and the United States can and should do the same. Congress can and should invoke the Elections Clause to mandate all-paper elections of its members. That alone would push electorates to demand all-paper elections of Presidential Electors, and perhaps of State and local officials.

Going back to all-paper will be a tall order. It will probably require the ultimate “wave election” with a cadre of lawyers ready to challenge any irregularities like those now surfacing in Election 2020. But until that happens, Election 2020 can always – always – happen again.

The Minnesota Insurrection

The State of Minnesota, alone (so far) among the fifty States, is making insurrection and rebellion against the United States. Evidence for this abounds and is conclusive. Astonishingly, no other State in the Union is playing nearly so active a role against the enforcement, deferred and hence long overdue, of American immigration law. So two questions present themselves. First, why did Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.), various State officials, and at least one U.S. Senator “do it”? Second, will any other State governor follow Gov. Walz’ lead? If not, what are they waiting for?

State of affairs in Minnesota

Minnesota first exploded onto the nationwide consciousness when the Trump administration discovered massive fraud in that State. Did President Joe Biden lay the groundwork by planting a squatter colony of Somalis in Minnesota’s largest city? (Never mind the dubious legitimacy of the Biden presidency; what is at issue here are his acts regarding immigration.) To say that would be too easy – because the existence of that squatter colony predates Biden. That squatter colony prevailed on the Governor to alter the State flag to resemble that of the Somali “Republic.”

CNAV has taken note of the fraud before. At the time (January 4), reliable estimates put the total fraud at $8 billion. Fresh estimates put the total at $20 billion. In fact, President Trump now estimates that the fraud amounts to $100 billion – from Minnesota alone. He further estimates that he’ll find higher numbers of such fraud in California and “other Democrat-run States.”

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115951852007320342

At first Gov. Walz chose not to run for reelection again. But that did not mean he was standing down, Incredibly, evidence has now surfaced that he is running an insurrection against the federal presence in his State’s largest city. In this, Walz has the apparent support of Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis.

Evidence for the Minnesota insurrection

Toward the end of last week and over the weekend, the most shocking evidence to date began to emerge. This evidence shows – conclusively – that government employees, in key positions, are actively supporting criminal behavior. This demonstrably includes:

Obstruction of justice,
Stalking and attempted murder of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, and even
Stalking and attempted murder of journalists sympathetic to the rule of law.

CNAV obtained this evidence largely from The Gateway Pundit. Among other things, James O’Keefe, head of O’Keefe Media Group, and some of his associates barely escaped with their lives after an incident that included stalking and pelting with “ice bottles”: literally, bottles that someone filled with tap water, then froze.

https://x.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/2015202133721723350

https://x.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/2015484853949493332

(Note: PV means Project Veritas, the outfit O’Keefe founded, the board of which later expelled him.)

On Saturday, O’Keefe released this update:

https://x.com/JamesOKeefeIII/status/2015260124932448533

Furthermore:

Elements of the Minnesota National Guard appeared at a federal facility – to distribute snacks and hot drinks to anti-ICE demonstrators. They even donned bright reflective vests to distinguish themselves from ICE agents. Recall that Gov. Walz activated the Guard a few weeks ago. He said then, “These are our soldiers!” That implied that he was ready to order them into direct military action against federal officers – or, if need be, troops. That, mercifully, has not happened yet. But until now Guard elements have literally parked their fighting vehicles here and there and done – nothing.

The Signal Chats

Journalist Cam Higby successfully infiltrated several chat threads on the secure small-message-service app called Signal. These threads speak of driver’s license checks – which only employees of or connected to Divisions of Motor Vehicles can run. Here is the thread (odd numbers only):

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015093523733733474

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015093539210703227

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015093635096658172

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015094214074237372

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015094229484138636

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015094253580370019

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015094463425581087

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015094478873231707

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015094493985345728

The thread contains screenshots and screen recordings of dialogue, maps, and even a manual for license place checking. Tellingly, Mr. Higby flatly accuses “local police” of “cooperating” with this highly organized group.

Perhaps worst of all, Higby discovered a “mutual aid” chat, the administrator of which said “it was a vetted chat for teachers.” To join, he would have had to specify his real name and relationship to a school.

What, CNAV would like to know, does the National Education Association have to say about this? If the President General of NEA does not sanction the Minnesota chapter, then the NEA is compromised.

Members of these chats delete all messages every twenty-four hours, in an attempt to avoid tracing. But Higby and others have managed to identify some of the administrators, despite their use of code names.

https://x.com/jimmy_rustlin/status/2015105497968386155

https://x.com/JamesHartline/status/2015246369536262465

A former Special Forces warrant officer (ranking higher than a sergeant major but lower than a second lieutenant) weighed in. Here is the relevant excerpt:

What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.

Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.

This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.

The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.

https://x.com/Schwalm5132/status/2015470661490057540

CW4 Schwalm called for an active, frontal, in-their-faces response, because

history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.

Ah – ahem – about those casualties

A few words are in order about the “casualties” that the insurrectionists seem willing to “absorb.” Renee Good, of course, tried to ram an ICE agent with her vehicle. For that, per his training, he fired his service weapon, wounding her fatally.

Alex Pretti, for his part, started an altercation with ICE agents, then whipped out a pistol. And the gun went off.

The agents opened fire, killing him then and there.

https://x.com/DHSgov/status/2015115351797780500

https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/2015118344421060849

A search of his person revealed two oversized magazines, fully loaded.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115951636521315703

Bodycam footage is available and will no doubt prove probative in the agents’ favor.

https://x.com/BillMelugin_/status/2015841395613806640

If CW4 Schwalm is correct in his metaphor, then those two more than deserved what they got. They deliberately committed “suicide by Fed” to make martyrs of themselves. (Did Alex Pretti fire his gun on purpose, perhaps?)

Of further interest is the case of ChongLy Thao. Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) has accused ICE of “drag[ging] this “citizen in the snow in his underwear.” Gateway Pundit fact-checker Antonio Graceffo has the straight scoop. To summarize:

The total elapsed time, from entry into the Thao home to his eventual return to the home, was two hours.
Thao resembles an illegal alien convicted as a sex offender. Had Thao cooperated and submitted to a biometric check, ICE could have cleared him instantly. But he refused to cooperate. Result: a brief trip “downtown,” a fingerprint check – and eventual exoneration. Also of note: the actual suspect once boarded in the Thao home.

The Feds are on top of it

Happily, this federal government is anything but lazy. As soon as Higby dropped his seventeen-part thread, the FBI opened an investigation. From other influencers, CNAV learns that the members of the Signal chat panicked.

SIGNAL IS NOT SECURE. I worked in communications. Once they figured out where we were, it’s only a matter of time. Flan has been exposed. We’re all [obscenity]. I need to leave this state… I have contacts in Cuba.

“Flan” would be Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan (D-Minn.).

https://x.com/camhigby/status/2015579685581717852

The Feds are in the chat! The Feds are in the chat!

What followed that breathless chant was an equally breathless discussion on:’

How quickly everyone could get out of the country, and
Where they could go.

The chat members mentioned a network of safe houses in Canada.

On the afternoon of January 25, President Trump posted a message. In six paragraphs (over two Truths!), plus an ordered list of four entries, he laid down a set of expectations. He addressed this to “Governor Walz, Mayor Frey, and EVERY Democratic Governor and Mayor in the United States of America.”

1. Governor Walz and Mayor Frey should turn over all Criminal Illegal Aliens that are currently incarcerated in their State Prisons and Jails to Federal Authorities, along with all Illegal Criminals with an active warrant or known Criminal History, for Immediate Deportation.

2. State and Local Law Enforcement must agree to turn over all Illegal Aliens arrested by Local Police.

3. Local Police must assist Federal Law Enforcement in apprehending and detaining Illegal Aliens who are wanted for Crimes.

4. Democrat Politicians must partner with the Federal Government to protect American Citizens in the rapid removal of all Criminal Illegal Aliens in our Country. Some Democrats, in places like Memphis, Tennessee, or Washington, D.C., have done so, resulting in safer streets for ALL.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115958124569932540

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115958123338296139

A middle-school teacher or principal couldn’t have done better. Early the next morning he announced sending his border czar, Tom Homan, to Minneapolis to take personal command. He also announced investigations into:

The Somali fraud, and
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), and how she got so rich so quickly in office.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115961647505369753

Three hours later, Trump apparently received a contrite telephone call from Walz, who spoke of “work[ing] together” with Trump.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115962378381121858

Six hours later, Trump announced a similar call with Mayor Frey.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115963713974102712

But are the Minnesota authorities sincere?

Lay aside for a moment that Lt. Gov. Flanagan might be directly involved. When will Gov. Walz withdraw certain pending complaints from the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota? The ranking judge of that court is ordering the acting head of ICE to appear before him, per Associated Press.

However, the Court of Appeals for the Eighth Judicial Circuit has stayed earlier orders restricting ICE activities in Minneapolis.

More to the point, Rogan “DC Draino” O’Handley published this pithy analysis of the Signal chats from Cam Highby. He reached the same conclusions others have – that access to license-plate databases proves the involvement of Minnesota DMV employees. Then he alleged something further:

Their Signal chats have elected leaders and exposed money trails from Canada - this proves foreign involvement.

https://x.com/DC_Draino/status/2015832996209701334

The last twenty-four hours (since the alleged Walz call) have seen some remarkable shifts in attitude. Now Minnesota State Police are moving in to arrest those involved in riots and other altercations.

If this isn’t a “Potemkin display,” Gov. Walz might have saved his skin. But what about Lt. Gov. Flanagan? She deserves investigation – along with Minnesota DVS (Driver and Vehicle Services). The Signal chats provide probable cause for such investigations.

Furthermore, the Trump administration should keep its Argus eyes on every other:

Large city in a blue State (like New York City and Richmond, Virginia), and
City, in a red or blue State, having blue governance (like Dallas, Houston, and especially Austin, Texas).

The Minnesota insurrection might – or might not – be over. America doesn’t need another.

Trump delivers deeds, not words

Facta, non verba. Latin scholars can translate that phrase immediately, if they watch out for false cognates. Deeds, not words. Some, preferring to translate pithy Latin phrases into complete sentences, express it as: Actions speak louder than words. Either way, this describes the presidency of Donald J. Trump. Past Presidents have delivered largely empty rhetoric, to deceive the people as to their competence or their intentions. Many heads-of-state also deliver empty rhetoric, as a bluff. Donald J. Trump does not bluff. And many bad actors, accustomed to those past Presidents and their empty words, are finding that out the hard way.

I am a Tartar. When I say I’ll do a thing, I’ll do it. And when I say I’ll see a thing done, it will be done.

Charles Dickens, David Copperfield

Trump takes note of systematic welfare fraud

Over the long Christmas break, news broke about a breathtaking system of fraud running out of Little Mogadishu. Which is to say, the Somali colony in Minneapolis, Minnesota. That same colony prevailed upon that State’s feckless governor to adopt a modified Somali flag as the new State flag. Residents of rural Minnesota must surely have wondered what other favors Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) would do for Little Mogadishu.

Last December, they found out. Colony residents have built a network of babysitters and empty warehouses labeled as daycare centers. (One has a famously misspelled name.) These establishments have systematically bilked the State and federal governments, by billing for public daycare services they had no intention of providing. When certain influencers (like Nick Shirley) filmed some of those empty warehouses, colonists literally drove their children in, for show. Then they took those children in the front door and out the back.

That’s not even the worst of it. Other such establishments have billed the State and feds for special education services (read: Autism Spectral care). Those services never happened, either. This happened through the Medicaid program, which States administer – but the feds subsidize.

This has resulted in $8 billion in improper payments, i.e., fraud. Any other President, Republican or Democrat, would let the State handle it. Donald Trump has frozen all Medicaid payments until the State cleans that mess up. Make that unless and until, because that cleanup might have to wait for another State-wide election.

Not Minnesota only

Nor is Minnesota the only State involved. Trump himself has taken note of more such fraud in California – a situation he describes as worse.

There is more FRAUD in California than there is in Minnesota, if that is even possible. When you add in Election Fraud, then they are tied for first. Two Crooked Governors, two Crooked States!

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115814835032750025

Another influencer, copying Nick Shirley, discovered the same scam in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio has a Republican governor – a RINO governor. Where has he been? Mike DeWine has governed Ohio for years. He should have discovered the problem in his State as soon as the Biden administration planted the Somali colony in that city. (“President” Joe Biden might have planted many of these colonies, if they are not of longer standing. But State governors are responsible for policing their States. Tim Walz no doubt took the oldest and most subtle kickback known to machine politics: votes. Mike DeWine has no such excuse.)

Therefore, Trump presumably ordered the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) to suspend payments to California, Ohio, and many other States. He did this on the reasonable theory that the government should not continue to give money away for no good reason.

Apologists for such programs are already accusing Trump of seizing upon an excuse to cancel the programs involved. But that illustrates the problem with such programs. Their design inherently allows fraud. Whether through negligence, recklessness, knowledge – or intent – these flawed program designs have the same results. Trump is doing exactly the right thing in suspending payment as soon as he had definite grounds to do so. (Furthermore, many Minnesota residents agree with him.)

Trump and the “Donroe Doctrine”

As remarkable as this is, the weekend operation in Venezuela surprised even Trump’s most ardent supporters. The Washington Free Beacon has details. At about 2:00 a.m. Venezuelan Time, the first airstrikes on and near Caracas, the capital, knocked out electric power. (Venezuelan Time is the same as Atlantic Standard Time in North America, or one hour ahead of Eastern Standard Time.) So began an operation involving 150 aircraft, plus the USS Gerald R. Ford Carrier Strike Group. That task force has been operating in the Caribbean since November 16, 2025. Among its operations: destroying drug-laden fast boats, and seizing tankers laden with Venezuelan oil.

Those seizures were a distraction. The real targets were Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores, both of whom were already under indictment.

The United States of America has successfully carried out a large scale strike against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolas Maduro, who has been, along with his wife, captured and flown out of the Country. This operation was done in conjunction with U.S. Law Enforcement. Details to follow. There will be a News Conference today at 11 A.M., at Mar-a-Lago. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115830428767897167

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115832088990838303

Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been indicted in the Southern District of New York. Nicolas Maduro has been charged with Narco-Terrorism Conspiracy, Cocaine Importation Conspiracy, Possession of Machineguns and Destructive Devices, and Conspiracy to Possess Machineguns and Destructive Devices against the United States. They will soon face the full wrath of American justice on American soil in American courts. On behalf of the entire U.S. DOJ, I would like to thank President Trump for having the courage to demand accountability on behalf of the American People, and a huge thank you to our brave military who conducted the incredible and highly successful mission to capture these two alleged international narco traffickers.

https://x.com/AGPamBondi/status/2007428087143686611

The indictment, on various money laundering and drug trafficking charges, dates back to March 2020 and the first Trump administration.

The Maduros are already on U.S. soil, and presumably in the Brooklyn Detention Center. Trump has pledged to run Venezuela until such time as he can hand power to good actors, not bad actors.

President Trump needs to stay engaged in Venezuela to make sure that Maduro’s cronies, who are equally guilty of any crime that he is, are also pushed out of power. Maduro’s cronies may want to stay and fight as they don’t have too many places to run. The key to success going forward is how the Trump team works with both the Maduro cronies—not just the vice president but also the defense and interior ministers and to get these criminals an exit strategy—and also with the opposition, the legally elected leaders of Venezuela.

R. Adm. Mark Montgomery USN (ret.), for the Foundation for Defense of Democracies

Those opposition leaders – María Corina Machado and Edmundo Gonzalez – have already expressed their appreciation for the operation. That, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The Free Beacon’s Adam Kredo called the operation an application of the “Donroe Doctrine.” That’s a reference to the original Monroe Doctrine, according to which the Western Hemisphere is our Hemisphere.

Reaction – and just concern

Reaction to the Venezuelan operation has been largely predictable. Most Democrats in Congress have condemned Trump for laying on the raid. They said Trump exceeded his lawful authority and acted contrary to American interests. The New York Times and others actually call it “illegal” and “unwise.” Similar statements come from Presidents Vladimir Putin of Russia and Xi Jin-ping of communist China. They also came from the Presidents of Colombia, Brazil, and Mexico. (But from Ecuadoran President Daniel Noboa came high praise. Argentine President Javier Milei similarly praised Trump, consistent with Milei’s history in that regard. Source: U.S. News and World Report.)

Lay aside for a moment that sentiment in Little Caracas in Miami, Fla., and inside Venezuela itself, is mostly celebratory.

https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115833546671458707

Lay aside even that Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-Fla.) also sounded a somewhat positive, though cautious, note.

The arrest of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, whose criminal activity and destructive, brutal rule drove his nation into endless pain and poverty, was long overdue. I share my Venezuelan American constituents’ hope that his arrest will allow for a swift, democratic transition of power. However, I am deeply concerned that by leaving Maduro’s regime in place and failing to execute a negotiated transition of power in advance, this arrest will fail to alleviate the suffering of the Venezuelan people or restore the rule of law.

Moving Venezuela from one unelected regime to another, run by Donald Trump, is wildly inappropriate. He should entrust this responsibility to Venezuela's legitimate democratic leaders, Edmundo González and María Corina Machado, who won a democratic election overwhelmingly.

I hope Maduro will be brought to justice not only for drug trafficking, but for his crimes against humanity. He stole the 2024 Venezuela presidential election and independent investigators have accused him of extrajudicial murder, torture, systematic corruption, and theft of Venezuela’s wealth.

I fear that President Trump has no concern for democracy in Venezuela and no plan for achieving it. He has failed to explain to Congress or the American people how he plans to prevent the regime from reconstituting itself under Maduro’s cronies or stop Venezuela from falling into chaos. His address to the nation was focused on Venezuelan oil and made no mention of Venezuela's democratic leaders.

One thing is clear: Venezuela is extremely unstable and in a dangerous condition. I urge President Trump to immediately restore Temporary Protected Status for Venezuelans until lawful governance and stability are restored. The Administration must explain their plan for the day after to Congress and the American people.

She happens to have a large part of Little Caracas in her district. Though CNAV must protest her tone, she raises some of the best arguments that have come from the Democratic side. True, she leaves out the minor difficulty of Trump not having grounds to depose Acting President Delcy Rodriguez – yet. (Already she has taken a defiant tone, and Trump has answered that tone.) But CNAV shares her concerns – and her apparent confidence in Sr. González and Sra. Machado.

Justification

As mentioned, lay all that aside. Consider instead the good reasons for President Trump to do what he has done so far.

The late Ayn Rand proposed four criteria that would justify the invasion of a dictatorial regime on humanitarian grounds alone:

Execution without trial – or at least, execution without a fair trial,
Detention without charge and especially without a time limit,
Restrictions or outright prohibitions against ex-migration, and
Censorship.

Any country that does all four, is a human lobster trap. So any freedom-loving people would be within their rights to crack that trap open. Venezuela under Maduro did all four of these things, AND he flat-out ignored the results of the last election. Which is what Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was talking about.

In addition, the United States has direct casus belli for going to war with Venezuela. Remarkably, Erick-Woods Erickson laid out some of that casus belli:

For those interested, Nicolas Maduro lost his election in Venezuela and refused to give up power. In so doing, he invited Iranian militants and Hezbollah operatives into Venezuela and gave them land to set up shop. He also invited in the Chinese, Iranian, and Russian navies to train his navy for a planned military operation into neighboring Guyana to capture American oil fields. Previously, Hugo Chavez invited in American oil companies to Venezuela, had them build up Venezuela’s oil production capacity, then promptly took over the oil fields, threw out the foreigners, and forced the locals to keep working.

Maduro kept the policy and used the money to help fund Cuba, Iran, and provide China with oil, all while funding global narco-trafficking operations. He is not the legitimate leader of Venezuela…

Add to it that we now know, positively, that Maduro’s Venezuela interfered in the Election of 2020. That’s why Trump went to war.

Oil fields in Venezuela and Guyana might have been good enough cause without the election interference. But the election interference is the true cause.

What Trump should do next

Again, Donald Trump gave us deeds, not words. He must follow these deeds with more, and decisive, deeds.

First, Trump should explain a plan for “the day after.” But as for Temporary Protected Status, CNAV would recommend expedited vetting of all existing refugees from that country. Some of those people, especially some of the young men, are bad actors. (Does the name Tren de Aragua mean anything to anyone?)

Second, Trump should put forth a plan to establish the one cultural import of any value from France: all-paper voting.

What better reason to establish Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps programs in public high schools, than to have a ready cadre of disciplined – and trustworthy – student pages to count ballots at the precinct on Election Night? Or even to provide crowd and queue control during voting hours? (Managing the division of the electorate into the A-Js and the K-Zs might become their prime duty.)

Third, given the attitudes that Presidents Putin and Xi have expressed, Trump should move smartly to acquire Greenland. Until that happens, we risk letting Russia turn the Arctic Ocean into Nash Okean (Our Ocean – in Russian).

Fourth, the United Nations (which thinks of itself as the Anti-Empire) also stuck its nose in. So it’s time to get the U.S. out of the U.N. and get the U.N. out of the U.S.

This is what Making America Great Again really means.
