The term socialism has been around primarily in Europe since the early 1800s—with perhaps dozens of practicing groups. Adam Weishaupt, Baron Anacharsis von Clootz, Count Henri de Saint-Simon, Georg Wilhelm Hegel, David Friedrich Strauss, Bruno Bauer, and Ludwig Feuerbach, even Robert Owen in America, to name a few. Dozens more were expressing collectivist and/or atheistic doctrines long before Marx and Friedrich Engels brought forth the Communist Manifesto and finalized Das Kapital. Karl Marx is considered the godfather of the two most influential, dangerous, and successful forms of late 19th century socialism: International Communism and Fabian Socialism. The former gained power in Russia, the latter in Great Britain, each spreading outward from these two centers influencing neighboring countries. Total or near total regimentation is the goal of both, though the means of accomplishing this objective differ radically: the former orders violent revolution, the latter prescribes a diet of revolution by evolution—one piece at a time. Both work to establish a classless, socialistic, world society. One basic difference, Marx viewed the proletariat or working class as the essential revolutionary force while the Fabians insisted that the upper class was the more important revolutionary element. Both call themselves socialists.
The Berlin Wall, a remnant now a Monument, which once divided free West Germany from socialist East Germany lest future generations forget what socialism did to a once free Germany under Soviet socialist occupation. In the years between 1949 and 1961, about 2.5 million East Germans fled from East to West Germany. These wanted FREEDOM FROM SOCIALISM. The wall went up beginning August 12, 1961 and remained in place through October 1989 (28years). It was topped with barbed wire and guarded with watchtowers, gun emplacements, electrified fences, and mines. About 5,000 East Germans still managed to cross the Berlin Wall (by various means) and reach West Berlin, while another 5,000 were captured by East German authorities in the attempt and 191 more were killed during the actual crossing of the wall. The people were forced to remain under socialism.
Thus we can best define socialism by extracting what the philosophers of these two very successful socialist groups say that it is, rather than share what the variants of socialism, those that never conquered a single country, say that it is. Relying on them Webster’s Dictionary definition is found to be willfully incomplete. It reads: “Any of various economic and political theories advocating collective or government ownership and administration of the means of production and distribution of goods.” Actually socialists seek to impact every element of society: law, morality, government, economics, religion and education—everything; not just the ownership and administration of the means of production. But Webster did correctly view it as “a stage of society in Marxist theory transitional between capitalism and communism….” They are first cousins, both know of, and work for a common goal—full communism.
The violent means of communism, as a form of socialism, is well known and now out of favor with most socialists outside North Korea since the fall of the United Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) on December 26, 1991. Marx and Friedrich Engles being its doctrinaires, so we won’t need to write what is commonly known. Perhaps one citation is representative. Most are familiar with Marx’s strange love letter written to his prospective spouse, Jenny, before their marriage. Marx wrote: “Jenny! If we can but weld our souls together, then with contempt shall I fling my glove in the world’s face, then shall I stride through the wreckage a creator!” (Edmund Wilson, To The Finland Station: A Study in the Writing and Acting of History, Farrar, Straus and Giroux, New York, 1972, p. 136). Wreckage was an understatement! No philosophy resulted in more havoc on the earth’s surface than his. Marx died in 1883 but 34 years later, in 1917, Russia a non-capitalist society, adopted the violent revolutionary philosophy he prophesied.
So what did the Fabians say socialism was? In their published pamphlet Fabian Tract No. 4, “What Socialism Is,” George Bernard Shaw admitted, the publication contained “nothing that was not already to be found better stated in the famous Communist Manifesto of Marx and Engels” (Shaw, The Fabian Society: Its Early History, pp. 3-5). The Fabian Society from the beginning has been clothed with respectability and since it “stressed programs instead of dogma and avoided conflict with the authorities its motives were not seriously questioned” (Rose L. Martin, The Selling of America, Fidelis Publishers & Company, 1973, pp. 5-6). The prescription then and now is simply to introduce piecemeal changes in existing concepts of law, morality, government, economics, and education such that the masses absorb the changes desired without resistance.
The enticement for socialism— free stuff— makes it infinitely easier to get into than out of, once trapped.
Norman Thomas, six time candidate for U.S. President on the Socialist Party ticket and a Fabian, described the formula even more bluntly. “The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But, under the name of Liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until America will one day be a Socialist nation —without knowing how it happened.” (Two Worlds: The Story of Man and the Major Influences on His Life, A Flick-Reedy Education Enterprises Book, Bensenville, Illinois, 1966, p. 152). The quote has been attributed to Thomas for many decades but the exact first source is not known. Given his background, there is more reason to believe the quote credible, than to believe it was not made by him. Moreover, the quote is in complete harmony with socialist strategy followed historically.
Nor were the Fabians any less clear as to what their new world order would be like once fully implemented. Shaw, left no doubt with this very scary detail. “I also made it clear that Socialism means equality of income or nothing, and that under Socialism you would not be allowed to be poor. You would be forcibly fed, clothed, lodged, taught, and employed whether you liked it or not. If it were discovered that you had not the character and industry enough to be worth all this trouble, you might possibly be executed in a kindly manner; but whilst you were permitted to live you would have to live well (George Bernard Shaw, Intelligent Women’s Guide to Socialism, Brentano’s Publishers, New York, 1928, p. 470). PERMITTED TO LIVE!?!
But this point was not the ravings of one man only but was basic Fabian doctrine. It was stressed as early as Oct. 1907 in Fabian Tract No. 113 “Communism” by William Morris, The Fabian Society, which read in part, “There would need indeed to be a natural compulsion, which would prevent any man from doing what he was not fitted for, because he could not do it usefully; and I need not say that in order to arrive at the wealth I have been speaking of, WE MUST ALL WORK USEFULLY.” In other words, your very right to exist was dependent entirely upon whether you were a profitable citizen and that determination was to be made by the government. In this respect socialism and communism differed little. Ultimately the use of force is basic to the Fabian new world order as it is to the communist utopia. Sounds like their Great Reset. “You will own nothing and be happy.”

The most powerful portion of President Trump’s Address to the Nation 7/16/26 reads, “Newly declassified documents show that over a period of years starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People's Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history – resulting in China's illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files. That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote and engage in other nefarious activities which is exactly what is happening.” (Trump Address to the Nation 7/16/26, Whitehouse, 23:10).
In the last six years ALL forensic studies, actual evidence, and over 1,000 whistle blowers at penalty of perjury, INDEPENDENTLY gave the 2020 win to Trump. The other side controls most of the news and social media and relies on censorship and silence to block Americans from knowing the truth. But to know these things people have to get off the Deep State’s programing channels. Did you escape the programming?
Was the 2020 presidential election stolen? Over the six years since the contested election LibertyUnderFire.org (LUF) has published numerous columns as new documents or findings became known. Not one study exists documenting that the 2020 presidential election was not stolen—yet there exists a plethora of documentation that it was. The most conclusive being Dinesh D'Souza's movie “2,000 Mules” which provided the public 1 hour and 28 minutes of solid evidence of a stolen election (“2,000 Mules: They Thought We’d Never Find Out. They Were Wrong,” LUF, June 10, 2022). In effect we were allowed to watch it being stolen in real time by Americans. Let’s review some of what we published over that time period.
Utilizing the research of TrueTheVote founders, Cathrine Engel Brecht and Gregg Phillips, offered two types of evidence: geotracking and video, each placing the crime and criminal in the same place. “The geotracking evidence, based on a database of 10 trillion cell phone pings, exposes an elaborate network of paid professional operatives called mules delivering fraudulent and illegal votes to mail-in drop boxes in the five key states where the election was decided. Video evidence, obtained from official surveillance cameras installed by the states themselves, confirms the geotracking evidence.” This should satisfy a conviction in any real court in the land. According to Phillips,“TrueTheVote analyzed more than a petabyte (1,000 terabytes) of data from smartphones in Phoenix, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, Milwaukee, and Las Vegas, covering the time period from October 1 through Election Day (and through January 6 in Georgia to cover the Senate runoff” (“We Caught Them All, From their Own Cellphones,” June 6, 2022, AND, “Election Fraud Ten Times Bigger than ‘2,000 Mules.’ The Tiger Project,” Sept. 15, 2022, both by Harold Pease, Ph.D. LibertyUnderFire.org). Yes America, Democrats stole the election of 2020 and seated an illegitimate president.
Was China involved in the stolen 2020 presidential election? Yes again!! When TrueTheVote proved in “2000 Mules” that the domestic vote fraud was more than enough to have “elected” Joe Biden, it became the most serious crime in American history—even a coup to overthrow the president of the United States. But their research ALSO documented collusion between many high profile Americans with a foreign country, China. For Americans “knowingly” involved, this was treason and for the foreign country, an act of war against the United States. If they “knowingly” covered up the China connection they were working for that foreign government. The China Communist Party (CCP) was found to be in the very center of the plot. This is a new type of conquest from within and by infiltration rather than by invasion; most certainly ten times bigger than “2000 Mules.” The Biden FBI and DOJ refused to help TrueTheVote. If the Biden government were colluding and abetting with the enemy, they would not be helpful in investigating themselves. None of what Dr. Pease published was in Deep State presses.
TrueTheVote had to form their own investigative body. They needed other investigative journalists to prob further with them. They called their group of “over 100 experienced thinkers and researchers,” The Tiger Project. Their first three findings were startling 1) “Almost all the software code in the ABS platform is being used to run elections in hundreds of U.S. counties … written by programmers from the CCP” (China Communist Party). 2) These were “owned by CEOs running companies with direct ties to the CCP.” 3) “CCP law means whatever code they write, whatever app they own, any platform they have a right to take digital information on the Apple platform and download it to China because they own it. It's theirs” (Ibid.,“Election Fraud).
The China Communist Party (CCP) wrote the code for, manages, and operates the EMS system in multiple countries and in the United States for hundreds of counties. The CCP also maintains 220 million U.S. voter files and 1.8 million, that have worked in the elections in the United States for the last several years, plus their families. These files, it is supposed, can only be used for nefarious election purposes. Why? Socialists in our country allowed it.
So what information, besides voter results, does TrueTheVote believe was shipped to China by Konnech, creator of PolChief software used by thousands of election offices across U.S.? Apparently every person that has worked on a local election in the United States in recent years is already known to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). “1.8 million Americans who volunteered to participate in local elections in their counties. All have their personal information on a server in Wuhan, China, data which, under Chinese law, belongs to the CCP.” Not just “their names, pictures, addresses, names of their kids, etc. but down to the schematics and detailed maps of the building they worked in and more. Down to how the elections work and who works in the elections.” China has weaponized our elections. “The CCP has an incredible amount of information stored about these election workers and their families that it has been using for more than a few years now in order to learn everything there is to know about how local elections are being run inside the United States.” (“China Interfered in the 2020 Presidential Election, After All,” By Harold Pease, Ph.D., LUF, Sept. 2, 2022).
Trump offers us again what was censored away in 2020, six years ago, for those smart enough to know our media has been controlled by the Deep State for decades. Most now can see. The left, then and now, offers no comment other than its a big lie which never worked for those willing to question and probe. The documents are all real and conclusive and say—2020 was rigged and the Coup to remove Trump then worked. There are no studies that document otherwise. But this side of the issue is challenged by an enemy that argues with silence and censorship. Silence is not a counter argument, ignoring the evidence as though it never happened does not change that it did happen. It only makes one MORE ignorant. This time Trump has forced them to deal with the evidence because most people now believe the 2020 presidential election was rigged.

Last week’s column concluded that COVID-19 united Putin and Xi against America’s Deep State responsible for the disease as Russia was directly threatened by it and them, and China was blamed for the disease. That documents just declassified by Gabbard’s DNI disclosed it came from American built and financed bio labs in Ukraine. Consequently both Russia and China are supportive of Trump’s exposing and removing the Deep State in America and from the world—strange bedfellows, but allies against the Deep State nonetheless (“COVID Truth Six Years Later may have made Russia and China Allies Again,” LibertyUnderFire.org, June 24, 2026).
Trump said at the June 15-17, 2026 G-7 Summit, “I want to thank China, President Xi. I was with him, and he stayed neutral, and I appreciate it. And I want to thank Vladimir Putin. He was very neutral. They could have made it much more difficult for us. You know, they have shoulder weapons to knock down airplanes… I said, I would really appreciate it if you're not giving or selling any of that to Iran. And you know what, for the most part, they didn't. So I just want to thank them because they made it a lot better” Both have always opposed the New World Order. It also threatens them.
We have sensed common ground with Russia in particular over Ukraine for some time. If Mexico had bio labs doing gain-of-function research on killer diseases on America’s border with them, potentially endangering American lives, the United States would demand their removal (which Russia did through the UN) and if they refused would have removed the labs ourselves. Trump fully expected to have the Russia-Ukraine War ended before retaking office. Within months of his reelection he did resolve 8 international wars between other countries. It became blatantly obvious that the obstacle to ending this war was not Russia but Ukraine backed by President Joe Biden and the European Union. The war would have ended two years ago if these sincerely wanted peace. The Deep State alone benefit from a future World War III as it would hide a multitude of their “crimes against humanity” sins and destroy both Russia and America.
Just this past week Ukraine attacked Moscow, desperate to enlarge their conflict with Russia bringing in the European Union, NATO, and the United States once Democrats returned to power. Ukraine launched one of the largest drone attacks on Moscow oil refineries, the second time in three days ('Pure hell' in Moscow as Ukrainian drones strike major refinery supplying capital's fuel market, by Efrat Lachter, Fox News, June 18, 2026). Do Ukraine and the EU want a peace deal? Absolutely not!! Ukraine has a history as a Deep State country since 2014 in common with Iran since 1979, and Venezuela since Caesar Chavez. Trump is now returning to Ukraine to resolve the damage America’s Deep State did to the Ukrainians when they made their nation a colony for Deep State purposes such as gain of function bio labs and laundered money.
The Deep State has been around for well over a hundred years known originally and successively as Internationalists, the eastern establishment, the establishment, globalists, the new world order, world order, and the Great Reset under Klaus Schwab, and today the Deep State. They have always advocated world government. LibertyUnderFire.org has argued for many years that neither Russia nor China wanted to be governed by either the European (the Royal Institute of International Affairs in England, RIIA) or American (the Council on Foreign Relations, CFR) both branches of the same entity and both publicly created in 1921. The first came to dominate all Europe through THEIR created European Union and the second to dominate both major political parties in the United States through THEIR Council on Foreign Relations, both today known as the Deep State. Yes, the Soviet Union and China once sought world dominion under communism, but neither wanted to be ruled by America’s or Europe’s Deep State.
Regarding Iran, Trump said at the June 15-17, 2026 G-7 Summit, “I want to thank China, President Xi. I was with him, and he stayed neutral, and I appreciate it. And I want to thank Vladimir Putin. He was very neutral. They could have made it much more difficult for us. You know, they have shoulder weapons to knock down airplanes… I said, I would really appreciate it if you're not giving or selling any of that to Iran. And you know what, for the most part, they didn't. So I just want to thank them because they made it a lot better” (X22 Report, Ep. 3930b, June 18, 2026, 37:55). Both have always opposed the New World Order. It also threatens them.
What if Trump, knowing that the world was very close to falling into total control of the Deep State, felt he had to seek allies among other world powers, even former enemies, that understood the danger and were also threatened by the Deep State—even China and Russia? Europe during World War II aligned with us on freedom issues but now, as the European Union, are at variance with us on these same issues and is under Deep State dominance.
The two most influential political centers in the world are the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London, England and the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City, USA, both formally organized in 1921 and are shadow governments; Chatham House for Europe and the CFR for America. Both work for world government and are today what is called the Deep State. Neither Putin nor Xi want to be ruled by either, thus they support Trumps efforts to remove them worldwide.
China got cheap oil from Venezuela and Iran and was Iran’s major arms supplier. China has no reason to be neutral. Trump has to be using back channels with both Putin and XI in the loop, with agreements in place before he bombed that they would remain neutral. The common enemy theory is the only explanation. Putin wears a cross around his neck as an orthodox Christian and can clearly see that the muslim doctrine is the only religion acceptable in the New World Order.
In this case neutrality is a very strong position of support. There was zero opposition to what Trump was doing to Iran from either country. Such silence never happened in past crises. Speaking of America’s attack on Iran, Xi said, “Currently transformation, [we’ve] not seen in a country is accelerating across the globe and the international situation is fluid and turbulent. The world has come to a new crossroads.” We think he was suggesting that the Deep State control in world affairs is diminishing because of Trump. He also said, “Both China and the U.S. stand to gain from cooperation and lose from confrontation. Our two countries should be partners rather than rivals (Disclose tv, as quoted by X22 Report, Ep. 3905b, May 14, 2026, 19:54).
What if Trump created a group of nationalist leaders from around the world who agreed to temporarily unite against a common enemy – the globalist Deep State? These in the same areas already controlled by the Deep State, to help the countries surrounding them overcome that control. In the Middle East the Abraham Accords is working together to harness Deep State Iran and its Deep State terrorist armies ISIS, Hezbollah, Hamas, Al-Qaeda, the Islamic State, and the Houthis. And in America Trump’s Shield of the Americas to undo Deep State influence over the cartels, child, human and drug trafficking, all centered in Venezuela but wrecking havoc in all Latin America countries. Isn’t this Trump’s 2026 National Strategy for Counterterrorism?

The Department of National Intelligence (DNI) pours out evidence on COVID after six years of lies covering many facets of the world pandemic. On June 13, 2026 they published, “Truth: dangerous gain-of-function research was funded by the U.S. government around the world, directed and approved by people like Dr. Fauci.” DNI Gabbard exposed this by, “using U.S. government data, put together and uncovered by career subject matter experts in the intelligence community and other government agencies.” The release, “highlighted an example of the many overseas bio labs funded by the US, the research conducted there, and the significant risks they pose to the world, especially when located in a country at war. (Office of the DNI, Tulsi Gabbard, dnigov/files/BIOLABS…).
A map showing the locations of bio labs in Ukraine as published by the Office of U.S. Directer of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, June, 12, 2026. The map shows their biosafety levels and their research type, human or animal. Russia insisted these were on or near their border with Ukraine posing a major threat to Russia and her people and demanded their removal. America, under Biden, and Ukraine denied their existence. Turns out Russia was right.
After that bombshell finding, related conclusion drops were presented in four DNI slides. Slide 1: “A draft President’s Daily Brief, written after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, details threats to Ukraine labs due to dangerous pathogen storage. Biden officials confirmed this on the record. The bio labs in Ukraine and other countries held and may continue to hold pathogens. They were built and funded by the US and we seek essential funding as powerful people and interest want to keep flowing.” (Office of the DNI, X22 Reports Ep 3926b, June 14, 2026, 44:10–46:24).
This was followed by slides two through four. Slide 2: “A map created by the ODNI [Office of the Director of National Intelligence] using US government data to show lab locations, bio safety levels of each location, the type of research being conducted, and if biological weapons were being stored.” Office of the DNI. Slide 3: “A list of labs and data pulled from US Embassy in Ukraine website that shows US government funding, the contracting company used, and whether or not the lab had a permit for especially dangerous pathogens.” Finally, Office of the DNI. Slide 4: “Data compiled from open source information that was collaborated with US government information, including US Embassy in Ukraine data, showing connections to the defense industry and research project data on U.S. funded highly pathogenic Avian Flu, and other highly infectious viruses in bio containment labs in Ukraine.”
In short, “The existence, history, locations of these U.S. funded bio labs was intentionally covered up by powerful people falsely claiming that the labs do not exist and accusing anyone who says otherwise to be foreign assets and traitors to America. Those lies are still being propagated today by the same powerful people and their allies who wished to see this dangerous research continue with little to know oversight.”
Tulsi Gabbard concludes, “POTUS rightly took action over a year ago to put a stop to U.S. funding of gain-of-function research to protect the American people and people all around the world.” Gain-of-function is lawful when applied to plants and animals but not when applied to humans. She promises that the “ODNI will continue to work closely with partners across the US government to identify where these dangerous bio labs are located across the world. What pathogens they contain, and to end dangerous gain-of-function research.” (Ibid.). These are not new findings LibertyUnderFire.org, reported March 11, 2022, “Are US-run Bioweapon Labs in Ukraine as Russia Says?” Yes, but Deep State media smothered what was then known.
Why is Tusi Gabbard’s DNI the most credible DNI ever. Because she was a life-long Democrat, had served as a Democrat congresswoman from Hawaii from 2013 to 2021. In February 2019, she officially launched her 2020 presidential campaign intending an eventual run against Trump. Her honesty and integrity is not party based. Trump knew this and placed her, as Director of National Intelligence, a position that could have backfired against him had she no integrity.
After six years what has been proved by Tulsi Gabbard’s DNI? COVID was manmade, worse, American government made and taxpayer funded in Ukraine, a country heavily influenced by Americas’ Deep State in 2014 and since. Gain-of-function research was prohibited in the United States so creating COVID was exported mostly to Ukraine where there would be no oversight. Biden knew of the labs, their origins and taxpayer financing and of their danger to the world. We know this from his daily briefs written after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, and intentionally covered everything up. Also that this operation was “directed and approved by people like Dr. Fauci.” Those responsible for COVID all lied to the American people. Finally, the forces that created the labs deny the above conclusions and want these labs and research to continue.
Why is Tusi Gabbard’s DNI the most credible DNI ever. Because she was a life-long Democrat, had served as a Democrat congresswoman from Hawaii from 2013 to 2021. In February 2019, she officially launched her 2020 presidential campaign intending an eventual run against Trump. Her honesty and integrity is not party based. She gained nothing from telling America what the classified documents disclosed, that America built and funded 40 bio labs in Ukraine and lied about their existence to the American people for years.
What is likely also correct? COVID was taken from Ukraine to China without their knowledge and released from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (also funded by USAID) so China could be blamed as first deaths occurred there. China was right when she insisted in 2020 that COVID came from America. Russia had cause to invade Ukraine, as Putin insisted, as at least 13 of these bio labs were placed on his border threatening his people. He insisted they be removed.
COVID united Putin and Xi against America’s Deep State responsible for the disease as Russia was directly threatened by them and it, and China was blamed for it. Trump was the single greatest threat to the Deep State’s continued rule in both political parities in America since John F. Kennedy. The Kennedy files revealed “a government within a government” and the CIA the single most important instrument in the Kennedy assassination. Trump, like Kennedy, became its major target. The Deep State created the Russia hoax, impeached Trump twice, and rigged the 2020 presidential election, principally by use of fraudulent mail-in ballots, to get rid of him. Thereafter, when he chose to run again, after their coup to unseat him, they unloaded multiple indictments, judicial tyranny, and ongoing assassination attempts. Trump became the president they could not remove or kill. MAGA grows as people allow themselves to awaken.
Consequently both Russia and China are supportive of Trump’s exposing and removing the Deep State in America and from the world—strange bedfellows, but allies against the Deep State.

Help preserve our Republic while we still can by sharing this column.
Let us first establish that Congress represents all the citizens of this country (all factions and political parties) and establishes all federal law of the land within our borders. ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) was created by Congress to enforce the federal law they created respecting this country’s borders. Fighting against it is the same as fighting Congress, the U. S. Constitution and the U.S. armed forces. Anyone doing so proves themselves treasonist and an enemy to us all. This has always been the case and understanding until now. Any battle against ICE is to be waged only in the legislative branch and not on the streets of America.
Delaney Hall, an immigration holding center outside Newark, New Jersey where demonstrators gathered May 30, 2026 arguing that the facility is really a concentration camp and those inside kidnapped or abducted. They omitted two important details. If they had not broken our laws by crossing the border they would not be in this place. Or, once in, and realizing that those on this side considered it an invasion, taken advantage of Trump’s generously funded self deportation plan. Americans overwhelmingly support deportation.
The enemies of this country and the U. S. Constitution have been in play for well over 100 years under generic names: Internationalists, Globalists, the Establishment, and now the Deep State. Their major goal during the Biden years was to bring in millions of unvetted illegal immigrants and team up with them to destroy America. The laws of entree into this country are enforced by ICE thus they seek to destroy ICE and the Republic it preserves. This conglomerate, collectively called the Deep State, funds and assists virtually every Anti-American cause.
This facet’s most recent activity to destroy ICE was May 30, 2026 outside Delaney Hall, an immigration holding center outside Newark, New Jersey, thus we will call it the Delaney Hall Riot. They admit to being a “collection of anti-Israel, Marxist and Democratic organizations.” This riot was planned for up to a year in advance. They comprise at least 100 organizations and are heavily financed to the tune of $825 million in combined annual revenue. Within the 100 organizations are “big names like the ACLU, Indivisible and Democratic Socialists of America. Their document calling all socialists to assemble was the “Delaney Hall Creator Brief.” In mere minutes, “the call to action spread through secret groups on Signal, an encrypted messaging platform, activating hundreds of anti-ICE activists… collaborating on transportation, logistics and supplies, like goggles, protections against pepper spray, respirators and protective knee pads.”
Word choices are an important part of the propaganda war. “The strategy document directs content creators to call the detention center a ‘concentration camp’ and detainees ‘captives’ who were ‘kidnapped/abducted/taken.’” These “tactics mirror the system deployed in Minneapolis earlier this year to protest ICE actions, and military experts say the operations resemble the tactics of an insurgency” (“Secret Signal chats reveal how anti-ICE agitators coordinated Newark riots,” by Asra Q. Nomani, Michael Dorgan, Preston Mizell, FOX News, June 4, 2026). Indeed it does because THIS IS AN INSURGENCY. “They act like military battalions…Fox News Digital observed tents stocked with respirators, goggles, protective pads, decontamination supplies and other protest-support equipment.”
Fox News pointed out a fatal weakness, an Achilles' heal, to them if only the House will act upon it. “About 70 of the groups have received special designations as charities by the IRS, have status as regular 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) nonprofits, as well as labor union 501(c)(5) and 501(c)(6) nonprofits, enjoying tax-deductible donations and certain tax-free benefits.” These seventy organizations presently are “under congressional investigation for alleged abuse of those designations.” Ending their inappropriate tax exemption status is critical to saving America.
The lies about Delaney Hall being a concentration camp, they being kidnapped, and being horribly mistreated were debunked rather quickly when “the state of New Jersey's health inspectors went to Delaney Hall and didn't find a single violation. They concluded, ‘No lawbreakers in the history of human civilization have been better treated.’” (Fox News, X22 Reports, hereafter not cited, Ep. 3920b, June 4, 2026, 7:10).
Let us acknowledge our recent deportation history—all living presidents deported. Bill Clinton deported 2 million with no riots or objections from his political party. George W. Bush deported 2 million with no riots or objections. Obama deported 5 million with no riots or objections. Trump’s first term he deported 2 million with no riots. Biden deported 4 million with no riots or objections from his party. Trump’s second term, as of June 1, 2026, deported 900k with numerous riots, protests, even deaths and universal objection from RINO’s and Democrats, 2 million self deported. Its all manufactured to stop Trump (Ep. 3917b, June 1, 2026, 16:57).
We live in a day when both the Departments of Justice of Biden and Trump have ruled the other domestic terrorists. Americans who block ICE or immigration enforcement usually also have extreme views in favor of mass migration and open borders. If they are physically ready to block ICE they are likely also to support overthrowing the U.S. Government—three of the 8 definitions of Domestic Terrorist.
Trump’s most recent Executive Order “Restoring Integrity to America’s Financial System” should discourage our banks and financial systems from being used as accomplices to criminal activities. Trump describes it, “I recently signed a powerful new executive order, which will be led by the Treasury Department, to stop banks, credit cards, and financial institutions from being used to facilitate human smuggling, drug trafficking, illegal immigration, and the criminal cartels who orchestrate these activities. Access to our nation’s financial systems must be limited to those who have a legal right to be here, and who are engaged in lawful and legitimate commerce. Bank accounts being used to enable illegal immigration, or to store the welfare received by illegal aliens will be shut down, and funds will ultimately face impoundment and seizure so they can be returned to taxpayers. It is not ludicrous, but profoundly dangerous, that any illegal alien can simply present a blue state drivers license, or Biden border document, and have unrestricted access to the U.S. financial system… My executive order will also allow us to stop billions in leaving our country in all manner of criminal activity. It has been said this measure we are taking is the most effective means of reversing Biden's border invasion.” And indeed it likely will be. Some of us remember some banks shutting down Trump accounts in his first term while supporting Epstein’s illicit millions in blackmail money (Ep. 3919b, June 3, 2026, 21:05).
For illegals who still do not want to return home. Department of State Secretary Marco Rubio has lined up 20 countries willing to take them. They quickly succumb to deportation to their home country when told they would be going to a different foreign country.

America, and the world as well, is at war with very different types of terrorists: Transnational narco-terrorists and gangs, Legacy Islamist terrorists, and Violent Left-wing extremists terrorists. All are transnational, have evil and destructive intents, hate Christians and Jews and would destroy the U.S. Constitution and individual liberty had they power to do so. In America all three terrorists priority groups favor the Democrat Party and hate President Donald Trump because he seeks to destroy them, The common denominator to them all is that the Deep State is embedded in them and is happy to use them, and does, for its controlling purposes.
Presently America, liberty and the Constitution are threatened more than at any time in U.S. history except for the November 3, 2020-through January 6, 2021 presidential election and Electoral College certification. Previously, enemies were identified as nations we were at war with at different times: Vietnam, Korea, USSR, Germany, Japan, Spain and Great Britain. Today enemies are not necessarily countries but enemy groups within nations including from within our own government. For the first time in US history the majority of our most dangerous enemies are domestic terrorists. That is why President Trump assembled the military last Sept. 30, 2025, at Marine Corps Base Quantico, warning them that they could play a role in dealing with enemies from within (Trump Discloses to The U.S. Generals “The Enemy is From Within,” by Harold Pease, Ph. D., LibertyUnderFire.org, October 8, 2025).
The Trump administration has categorized today’s enemies into three terrorists priority groups: narco terrorists and transnational gangs, legacy Islamist organizations, and violent left-wing extremists, including anarchists and Antifa. The third priority is the violent left-wing extremists. The strategy for its removal directs the present government to map their membership, sever international ties, and cripple them operationally before they can carry out attacks. As evidence of the threat the document cites the assassination of Charlie Kirk by a radical whom the strategy describes as espousing extreme transgender ideology (THE WHITE HOUSE, WASHINGTON, UNITED STATES COUNTERTERRORISM STRATEGY 2026).
The recently declassified Kennedy files revealed that the CIA, found to have been most responsible for the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and a shadow government now referred to as the Deep State, would have been in this third group. Over the decades American Deep State cells were established in Cuba, Iran, Ukraine, and Venezuela—in that order. Both are knee deep in all three terrorists and priority groups.
The Biden administration had previously identified white supremacists and anti-government extremists as the domestic terrorism threat. By October 13, 2023, the Biden U.S. Department of Homeland Security put out a meme called Potential Terror Threats adding to the list those in opposition to his COVID measures, those claiming election fraud, those believing Trump can be reinstated, and those honoring 9/11 anniversary and religious holidays. The meme was published by CBS Nightly News. Soon thereafter the Biden FBI and DOJ added Catholics, parents speaking out at school board meetings against CTR indoctrination of their children, and the 55% of Americans who support Trump’s Making America Great Again (MAGA) movement (See, “Biden’s Chilling Pursuit of Conservatives, Arctic Frost,” LibertyUnderFire,” Sept. 23, 2025). Consequently, the majority of Americans were decreed domestic terrorists by their own government. At what point do the majority realize that it (the federal government) not they (the people) was the actual domestic terrorist?
As mentioned last September 30, 2025, Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth summoned hundreds of the nation’s top military officers to Marine Corps Base Quantico. Trumps two principle messages given all the generals and admirals were that the enemy is within this country and the military must remember its oath to protect and defend the Constitution from “all enemies foreign and domestic.” This time domestic. Trump said, “This is going to be a big thing for the people in this room because it's the enemy from within and we have to handle it before it gets out of control. It won't get out of control once you're involved.”
On May 6, 2026, President Trump signed the 2026 United States Counterterrorism strategy (referenced above) setting out the clearest statement yet of his administration's national security priorities. The strategy must address all three priority groups. They interrelate and all must be dealt with simultaneously. The Deep State cells America established within other countries, in their efforts to control the world, must be removed which is what Trump is doing. Trump is treating counterterrorism and counterinsurgency as the same thing, as are we. The insurgency happened when the presidential election of 2020 was rigged. That insurgency is treated as a type of terrorism —they overthrew the Trump government in a Coup d'état. Biden was installed not elected.
Under Biden the majority of Americans were decreed domestic terrorists by their own government. At what point do the majority realize that it (the federal government), not they, (the people) was the actual domestic terrorist?
The 16 page document frames counterterrorism as a core mission centered on protecting Americans from both foreign and domestic threats, “Our nation has not been well served by its Intelligence Community (IC),… has been actively weaponized by its leadership as a political tool…This Administration will continue to prohibit the IC from being used politically against innocent Americans. As real threats were ignored or underplayed, Americans have witnessed the politically motivated killings of Christians and conservatives committed by the violent left-wing.” We will “prioritize the rapid identification and neutralization of violent secular political groups whose ideology is anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist. We will use all the tools constitutionally available to us to map them at home, identify their membership, map their ties to international organizations like Antifa, and use law enforcement tools to cripple them operationally before they can maim or kill the innocent” (Ibid.).
So Trump has setup the counterinsurgency of the people, the military and the executive branch which has exposed the Deep State insurgency of 2020-2021 and is putting everything in place to counter everything yet anticipated as well, which already included the participating trans community, Antifa, illegals, and brainwashed Democrats—the domestic terrorists within our country willing to work alongside the other two terrorists priority groups the narco terrorists and foreign Islamists terrorists to bring down America. Trump has prepared for what is to come defending America from all enemies, foreign and domestic as required in his oath of office.
