A Historic Year of Victories

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/0456e7ab-cfe5-44ae-912b-b39e0073b28d/transcript

1. Foiled Terror Attack in Los Angeles
Incident: FBI arrested five suspects allegedly planning coordinated New Year’s Eve bombings in Los Angeles.
Group: Identified as the Turtle Island Liberation Front, described as a radical pro-Palestinian, anti-American extremist group.
Details:
Planned attacks using improvised explosive devices (IEDs) at five locations.
Four suspects arrested in Lucerne Valley while testing bomb components; a fifth arrested in New Orleans.
Materials included potassium nitrate, PVC pipes, sulfur powder, and charcoal.
Ideology: Anti-U.S., pro-Palestinian, anti-law enforcement; Instagram posts included “Death to America” and “Free Palestine.”

2. DOJ and FBI Emails on Mar-a-Lago Raid
Revelation: Internal FBI emails show agents doubted probable cause for the August 2022 raid on Trump’s residence.
Concerns:
Evidence was “single source, uncorroborated, and possibly outdated.”
FBI suggested less intrusive alternatives, like negotiating with Trump’s attorneys.
DOJ officials allegedly dismissed optics concerns, saying they “didn’t give a damn.”
Implications: The raid was politically motivated, intended to damage Trump’s chances of reelection.

3. Housing, Immigration, and Economic Policy
Housing Crisis: Attributes skyrocketing rents and home prices to Biden-era immigration policies, citing a HUD report linking immigration to housing demand.
Trump’s Deportation Policy: Claims mass deportations have lowered rents by 1.1% year-over-year and 5.2% since 2022.
Economic Measures: Highlights upcoming tax reforms for 2026:

No tax on tips.
No tax on overtime.
No tax on Social Security for seniors.

FBI STOPS Anti-American Islamists from Bombing Los Angeles plus Biden DOJ ADMITTED No Probable Cause for Mar-a-lago Raid

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/0bbc658f-14c5-491f-97d8-b39e0073700c/transcript

Tragic events highlighted
Rob Reiner & spouse killed in Los Angeles, allegedly by their son, who reportedly struggled with addiction and mental illness; attribution is said to be from “People magazine,” with police not yet confirming details.
Brown University shooting: 2 dead, 9 injured in an economics exam-prep class; a suspect was later found at a hotel south of Providence; motive and affiliation are described as unknown at the time of recording.
Australia shooting (Bondi Beach): 16 dead, 40 injured; allegedly conducted by a father–son pair targeting a Hanukkah gathering; the hosts frame this as clearly motivated by anti-Semitism.

Sen. Chris Murphy was some how linking the Brown University shooting to Donald Trump on CNN.
Democrats use tragedies to push gun control and allegedly “justify violence,” contrasted with Trump preventing violence by arresting and deporting criminals/terrorists.

References to post–Oct. 7 protests in Sydney with chants like “Gas the Jews,” used to illustrate the normalization and escalation of anti-Jewish hate.
Security & personal safety
Open borders, sleeper cells, and insufficient vetting is to blame
