At one time Democrats were as vociferous against free healthcare for illegal aliens unlawfully crossing our borders as Republicans. Consider the following. Bill Clinton, “All Americans, … in every place in this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country. The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public services they use impose burdens on our taxpayers. That’s why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more, by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits to illegal aliens.” (Bill Clinton’s State of the Union Address given on January 24, 1995).
In the Democrat presidential primary debate (June 27, 2019) the moderator asked the candidates to raise their hands if their health-care plans would cover undocumented immigrants—the illegals. Of the 20 Democrat candidates seeking the presidency 19 raised their hand. At this moment illegals became their main constituents.
Hillary Clinton promoted her husband’s healthcare reform as First Lady, “We do not think the comprehensive healthcare benefits should be extended to those who are undocumented workers and illegal aliens.” She stated that undocumented immigrants would not be eligible for his proposed plan. (The Washington Post, July 1, 2019) Adding, “We do not want to do anything to encourage more illegal immigration in this country. We know now that too many people come in for medical care as it is. We certainly don’t want them having the same benefits that American citizens are entitled to have” (X22 Ep. 3763b, Oct. 29, 2025, 51:38).
Barack Obama in a joint session of Congress Sept 9, 2009 emphatically stated, “There are also those who claim that our reform efforts would insure illegal immigrants. This, too, is false — the reforms I’m proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally.” (“Providing Health Care for Illegal Immigrants: Understanding the House Health Care Bill,” by Robert Rector, Heritage Foundation, Nov. 24, 2009).
Five years later President Obama told Congress. “Even as we are a nation of immigrants, we’re also a nation of laws. Undocumented workers broke our immigration laws, and I believe that they must be held accountable — especially those who may be dangerous. That’s why, over the past six years, deportations of criminals are up 80 percent… But today, our immigration system is broken, and everybody knows it. Families who enter our country the right way and play by the rules watch others flout the rules. Business owners who offer their workers good wages and benefits see the competition exploit undocumented immigrants by paying them far less. All of us take offense to anyone who reaps the rewards of living in America without taking on the responsibilities of living in America….”
Obama continued, “When I took office, I committed to fixing this broken immigration system. And I began by doing what I could to secure our borders. Today, we have more agents and technology deployed to secure our southern border than at any time in our history (Administration of Barack Obama, Address to the Nation on Immigration Reform, November 20, 2014).
Chuck Schumer, presently the lead Democrat in the US Senate, once held similar views. In archived records from the Congressional Record on August 1, 1996, then Congressman Chuck Schumer, made remarks about immigration and benefits. He stated that non-citizens receiving SSI had grown sharply (from ~128,000 in 1982 to ~738,000 in 1994) and said: “…a whole lot of people determine they can come to the United States … they come to the United States for a hand-out. What did they do? They received SSI and Medicaid. They received a lot of Government assistance. Thank you very much, taxpayer…” GovInfo
The idea of the American taxpayer, who could barely afford his own healthcare, funding healthcare benefits for 50% of his neighbors who pay no federal income taxes, AND those who unlawfully crossed our borders reflected a mainstream Democratic stance at the time thus national health insurance explicitly limited eligibility to U.S. citizens and legal residents. Both political parties agreed, hence the laws prohibiting were very clear—still are. Illegals, those coming into the county through the back door and illegally, were prohibited the benefits of the taxpayer. There is no free money. Socialism forces those who produce to fund those who do not.
But in the 2010’s progressives (socialists) saw votes from the masses attracted by free food, subsidized housing and healthcare. California began covering undocumented children under Medi-Cal (2016) and adults under certain income thresholds (2019–2024). Illinois, New York, and Washington followed with similar limited-coverage programs. By the end of the 20-teens a rhetorical and policy shift from exclusion to total inclusion for everyone was complete in the Democrat Party. Every one in the world could invade America and expect free or subsidized everything at the American taxpayer’s expense—and they came in the millions. Biden unconstitutionally let them in and they were instantly Biden Democrats. If America could not afford them they just printed more money. The escalating NATIONAL DEBT NOW OVER $38 TRILLION AT $328,220 PER TAX PAYER (the readers bill) would just be moved to the next generation.
Everyone in the world could now invade America and expect free or subsidized everything at the American taxpayer’s expense–and they came in the millions . Notice the shoe prints are going into the U.S. but the border gate was pushed outward into Mexico by the Biden government inviting them in.
The best visual of the above described transition was the Democratic presidential primary debate (June 27, 2019) where the moderator asked the candidates to raise their hands if their health-care plans would cover undocumented immigrants—the illegals. Of the 20 Democrat candidates seeking the presidency 19 raised their hand. Free healthcare—the world noticed and flooded in.
When Congresswoman Maxine Waters was recently asked by a reporter whether “Democrats are willing to shut down the U.S. government to prioritize healthcare for illegal immigrants,” she partially avoided the question by saying “Democrats are demanding healthcare for everybody;” which, of course, would include illegals (“Maxine Waters Gets TESTY When Asked if Democrats Are Shutting Down Government Over Healthcare for Illegals,” by Mike LaChance, Gateway Pundit, Sep. 30, 2025). Democrats now demand that American taxpayers foot the bill for healthcare for illegal immigrants world wide, even if doing so remains against the law and unconstitutional.

In front of the largely hostile Deep State United Nations 80th Session Sept. 23, 2025, Trump spoke with power and minced no words. He opened, “Six years have passed since I last stood in this grand hall and addressed a world that was prosperous and at peace in my first term. Since that day, the guns of war have shattered the peace I forged on two continents…. One year ago our country was in deep trouble. But today, just eight months into my administration, we are the hottest country anywhere in the world….America is blessed with the strongest economy, the strongest borders, the strongest military, the strongest friendships and the strongest spirit of any nation on the face of the earth. This is indeed the Golden Age of America.” We present a few major portions of what he told the world.
Trump reminded the U.N. that in 2024 they “budgeted $372 million in cash assistance to support an estimated 624,000 migrants journeying into the United States.” The UN was supporting people that were invading the United States. If done by a single country it would be an act of war. “The UN also provided food, shelter, transportation and debit cards to illegal aliens on the way to infiltrate our southern border.”
The Invasion of the United States Southern Border. Trump continues, “ON OUR SOUTHERN BORDER, WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY REPELLED A COLOSSAL INVASION. And for the last four months, and that’s four months in a row, the number of illegal aliens admitted and entering our country has been zero. Hard to believe because, if you look back just a year ago, it was millions and millions of people pouring in from all over the world, from prisons, from mental institutions, drug dealers.” NOW, “Our message is very simple. If you come illegally into the United States, you’re going to jail or you’re going back to where you came from, or perhaps even further than that.”
The UN Helped Fund the Southern invasion of America. He reminded the U.N. that in 2024 they “budgeted $372 million in cash assistance to support an estimated 624,000 migrants journeying into the United States. Think of that. The UN is supporting people that are illegally coming into the United States, and then we have to get them out. The UN also provided food, shelter, transportation and debit cards to illegal aliens, can you believe that, on the way to infiltrate our southern border… Just a year ago, millions and millions of people were pouring in, 25 million altogether over the four years of the incompetent Biden administration, and now we have it stopped, totally stopped. In fact, they’re not even coming anymore because they know they can’t get through.”
What took place was totally unacceptable. “THE UN IS SUPPOSED TO STOP INVASIONS, NOT CREATE THEM AND NOT FINANCE THEM. In the United States, we reject the idea that mass numbers of people from foreign lands can be permitted to travel halfway around the world, trample our borders, violate our sovereignty, cause unmitigated crime and deplete our social safety net. We have reasserted that America belongs to the American people.”
The UN is destroying Europe also by encouraging Unmitigated Mass Migration. Trump continues, “I encourage all countries to take their own stand in defense of their citizens as well. You have to do that…[otherwise] You’re destroying your countries… But to stay this way, every sovereign nation must have the right to control their own borders. You have the right to control your borders as we do now, and to limit the sheer numbers of migrants entering their countries and paid for by the people of that nation that were there and that built that particular nation at the time.”
Trump warned, “Europe is in serious trouble. They’ve been invaded by a force of illegal aliens like nobody’s ever seen before. Illegal aliens are pouring into Europe…and nobody’s doing anything to change it, to get them out. It’s not sustainable. And because they choose to be politically correct, they’re doing just absolutely nothing about it. Proud nations must be allowed to protect their communities and prevent their societies from being overwhelmed by people they have never seen before, with different customs, religions, with different everything. Where migrants have violated laws, lodged false asylum claims or claimed refugee status for illegitimate reasons, they should, in many cases, be immediately sent home.”
Other nations have infiltrated Europe AND HER PRISONS. Trump continues, “According to the Council of Europe in 2024, almost 50% of inmates in German prisons were foreign nationals or migrants. In Austria, the number was 53% of the people in prisons were from places that weren’t from where they are now. In Greece, the number was 54%. And in Switzerland, beautiful Switzerland, 72% of the people in prisons are from outside of Switzerland. When your prisons are filled with so-called asylum seekers who repaid kindness, and that’s what they did, THEY REPAID KINDNESS WITH CRIME, it’s time to end the failed experiment of open borders… Your countries are going to hell.
“Just a year ago, millions and millions of people were pouring in, 25 million altogether over the four years of the incompetent Biden administration, and now we have it stopped, totally stopped. In fact, they’re not even coming anymore because they know they can’t get through… We have successfully repelled a colossal invasion,” Trump said.
“Now they want to go to Sharia law. But you’re in a different country. You can’t do that. Both the immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe if something is not done immediately. This cannot be sustained. What makes the world so beautiful is that each country is unique.” Uniqueness is being destroyed.
Climate Change Predictions Were ALL Wrong. “It’s the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the world, in my opinion. Climate change, no matter what happens, you’re involved in that. No more global warming, no more global cooling. All of these predictions made by the United Nations and many others, … were wrong.”
What Europe Must Do to Save itself. “They must take control strongly and immediately of the unmitigated immigration disaster and the fake energy catastrophe before it’s too late. The carbon footprint is a hoax made up by people with evil intentions and they’re heading down a path of total destruction.”
Only a portion of Trump’s very long message is summarized here, he concludes,“I love the people of Europe. And I hate to see it being devastated by energy and immigration. This double-tailed monster destroys everything in its wake and they cannot let that happen any longer.”

Trump. “I gave Iran chance after chance to make a deal… Certain Iranian hardliners spoke bravely, but they didn’t know what was about to happen. They are all DEAD NOW,… Iran, must make a deal, before there is nothing left,… No more death, no more destruction. JUST DO IT BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.” (X22 Report hereafter not cited, Ep. 3665b, June 13, 2025, 27:45). “Two months ago I gave Iran a 60 day ultimatum to ‘make a deal!.’ They should have done it! Today is day 61. I told them what to do, but they just couldn’t get there. Now they have, perhaps, a second chance! (Trump Warns Iran To Make A Deal Before ‘There Is Nothing Left’, By Kassy Akiva, DailyWire.com, June 13, 2025).
It began with B-2 bombers taking off from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri in two groups both in silence and in secret one flying directly West over the Pacific, the decoy, the other directly East over the Atlantic, both refueling several times midair in route and traveling over 620 mph.. Operation Midnight Hammer , with 7 stealths each manned by a crew of two, arrived at target areas in Iran 18 hours later for a 25 minute drop of 14 massive bunker busters each capable of destroying solid concrete with rebar 300 ft deep—then home again. Said to be a total success and they were never detected.
Trump was removing the Deep State Iranian government so the people themselves, who last demonstrated against the government in 100 days of protest in 2022, where “more than 500 protesters, including 69 children, have been killed,” according to the Human Rights Activists’ News Agency (HRANA) (Iran protests: ‘No going back’ as unrest hits 100 days, by Parham Ghobadi, 26 December 2022). The clerical government is not loved by the people. Iranians now can successfully come to power choosing to be free and elect their own government, This is the very opposite of the CIA directed regime change that came about in 1979 in Iran. Trump still believes this will result and that the Iranian people support what he has done. We will see.
Israel says “it destroyed over 120 Iranian missile launchers overnight: we’ve achieved aerial superiority over Iran…Israel is expected to issue its first – ever ‘evacuation orders’ for buildings and neighborhoods in Iran’s capital Tehran. (“IDF says a third of Iran’s missile launchers destroyed, urges parts of Tehran to evacuate,” by Emanuel Falbian, The Times of Israel, 16 June 2025). Iran had no allies.
The Wall Street Journal was among the first to suggest that the Iranian people might want to negotiate peace, (“A Battered Iran Signals it Wants to De Escalate Hostilities with Israel and Negotiate Messages passed by Tehran through intermediaries seek a return to talks if the U. S. Stays out of the Fight,” By Summer Said, Benoit Faucon, and Angt Peled, June 16, 2025). Obviously America was very much in the fight after their takeout of the nuclear sites June 21. Iranians were likely kept in the dark as to why either Israel or American was bombing them.
With Trump’s call to“Evacuate Tehran” the Deep State U. S. media went berserk expecting Trump to initiate a nuclear attack on Tehran. But Trump said nothing about nuclear. He was likely trying to cause some kind of chaos there to force Iran back to the table to discuss peace (Ep. 3667b, June 17, 2025, 14:51). Remember all wars are also information wars long before any real fighting. He’s always said, “IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON.” Notice Trump’s disabling comments. “We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran.” Then indirectly to the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei,”We now know exactly where the supreme leader is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there. We are not going to take him out, at least not for now, but we don’t want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patients is wearing thin” (Ep. 3667b, June 17, 2025, 39:13). Trump has an uncanny ability to get into the head of his opponents.
Trump maintains, “There is never any reason to put a single boot on the ground in Iran.” He executed his bombing of the nuclear facilities from inside the state of Missouri to inside the country of Iran, an 18-hour one-way flight, and back to prove this point stating, “That is how the forever wars were forever wars. They never wanted any war completed.” The Deep State used Iran and their production of weapons to fund the state funded terrorist. Thus the Deep State stayed in control. Trump allowed Israel to serve as a proxy to war until the people of Iran themselves say, enough is enough. The Deep State won’t be able to use Iran anymore. (Ep. 3668b, June 18, 2025, 31:32). Trump, “We’re not looking for long-term war. I only want one thing, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. That’s it.”
Deep State power in the Middle East must end. To this end look what Trump has already done. He removed ISIS. Hezbollah is no more. He removed Hamas, he has removed the Houthis, Iranian proxy forces in Yemen. He is removing all the state funded terrorist organizations created by the CIA in decades past in the region and is now shutting down first their funding through USAIDS. He shut down their ability to get intelligence. Now he is going to Iran, the hub of the problem in the Middle East, they create most of the supplies and weapons for the region. His actions are more likely to prevent World War III than start it!
With respect to his use of the War Powers Act in Iran, it doesn’t make it right, but everybody used it to bomb other countries: Clinton, Obama, Bush. All that is required is that one notifies Congress and you can strike a nation for 60 days and you don’t need congress’s approval. Countries thus bombed included: Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Somalia, and Pakistan.
Trump wants the Deep State’s unconditional surrender. The Deep State until now controls the opposition in Iran. Trump supports no regime change unless it comes from the people. There will be no CIA puppet government as elsewhere, like Ukraine. Trump is weakening the Deep State enabling the people themselves to rise and throw it off (Ep. 3669b, June 19, 2025, 2:20).
Expect a peaceful transfer of power in Iran. The Deep State is almost gone and thus far Trump has all the leverage there. The Deep State used a nuclear Iran to push fear around the world. After the destruction of the facilities they can’t do that any more. As Trump said after the destruction of the nuclear plants, “NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!” We will see.

A few weeks ago we published, “Before 1913 No One Paid Income Taxes, Tariffs Covered Everything.” Actually we have always had tariffs as the Constitution requires “All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives…” and, “The Congress shall have Power: To lay and collect Taxes, Duties Imposts and Excises…” with duties being a synonym for tariffs (Article I, Sections 7 and 8). But 124 years later, with the ratification of the 16th Amendment in 1913, America replaced the tariff tax on countries selling their products in the United States as the primary source of revenue for the federal government with a forced income tax on its own residents. Today most paying are taxed a fourth of their income.
Canals, shown in red, were a major source of transportation in the Old Northwest 1820-1860. Two north south canals from Lake Erie traversed Ohio to the Ohio river continuing South to the Mississippi River then to the Gulf of America. The most famous of all the canals was the Erie Canal carrying goods from the Great Lakes to Buffalo, New York then 363 miles East to the Hudson River than South to New York City and the Atlantic Ocean. Commerce to and from New York City necessitated their going to skyscrapers to accommodate the traffic. Tariffs funded all this including the skyscrapers. There was no federal income tax until 1913. Americans kept all their earnings. The same was so of four transcontinental railroads that followed.
The first concern of the newly formed Republic was how it would fund itself differently than had their former British government, as an object of economic control which fed their rebellion. They passed the Tariff Act of 1789, “which levied duties on imported goods to raise revenue and protect American industries from foreign competition” (TRUMP’S TARIFFS Constitutional, or Executive Overreach?,”New American, March 24. 2025, p. 21-22). Such funded a series of canals in or through the Appalachian mountains, the most famous being the Erie Canal linking the Great Lakes with the Hudson River and the Atlantic Ocean, 363 miles long in an unprecedentedly efficient waterway. We had four transcontinental railroads, the Civil War, and the Spanish American War. We had schools, colleges, subways, an army and navy. Tariffs funded the Industrial Revolution and Americans kept all their earnings which stimulated the economy.
Many believe this still realistic if we do three things. 1) Remove the trillions in waste and fraud identified by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) led by Elon Musk. 2) Require all federal spending to stay within the constitutional list Article I, Section 8. 3) Return to the tariff as our source of federal income excepting “unavoidable wars,” as George Washington admonished in his famous Farewell Address.
It was Democrat President Franklin D. Roosevelt, however, that ushered in the fourth branch of government, the federal bureaucracy, that necessitated a gigantic federal budget. “Beginning with the New Deal, the entire complexion of the executive branch changed, as president Franklin D. Roosevelt effected an unprecedented revolution … a permanent entrenched, professional government bureaucracy to impose continuity.” He “set up a welter of new government agencies tasked with regulating every aspect of Americans’ lives, organs that could effectively legislate without the encumbrances of legislative process, and which were ‘apolitical’ – that is, unaccountable. All of this was accomplished by FDR via executive order, particularly during his fabled ‘First 100 Days,’ which featured an effusion of executive orders and proclamations without precedent, along with an enormous volume of enabling legislation passed by a supine Congress” (“President or King,” The New American, March 24, 2025, pp. 9-10).
Roosevelt created “69 new government regulatory agencies” now referred to as the alphabet soup agencies. No president changed the government and Constitution more in his first 100 days in office than he. It was indeed a bloodless revolution leaving us thereafter at the mercy of Big Government. Moreover, he put these —not under legislative branch authority but the executive—where they operated virtually “free of accountability….This sprawling regulatory regime, wholly illegitimate by any constitutional standard, has been inserted into the executive branch…[this] completely restructured the executive branch and redefined the powers of the presidency without even the formality of a constitutional amendment.” Roosevelt’s first 100 days in office established “an unprecedented executive power grab that utterly —and illicitly— transformed the entire federal government and laid the foundation of modern Big Government” (Ibid.).
Donald Trump emphasized the tariff in his first term and is presently making it ever more dominant in the economy today. With it he believes we can gradually end federal income taxes altogether—as was once the case for more than half of our history. He would also like to investigate and audit the Federal Reserve, with a view of removing it, which serves as an open-ended credit card for the Deep State allowing it to create money at will for its nefarious projects and purposes. The most visible consequence of it is inflation which destroys the value of everyones money especially retirees on fixed incomes and may prevent the young from ever owing a home of their own.
Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt virtually created the Big Government regulatory state wholly illegitimate by any constitutional standard. He created “69 new government regulatory agencies” and served four terms in office. He controlled the legislative and executive branches of government. The media and his party swooned over him. After him his own party supported a two term limitation on the office. If we ever had a dictator in office it was him. Ironically, President Trump is called by them a dictator for trying to undo his/their regulatory state. This makes Trump the only dictator in history advocating less government and taxes.
There is considerable evidence that the Deep State, then called Internationalists, abandoned the tariff for their federal income tax and the open-ended credit system of the Federal Reserve or Central Bank. These hatched the same year, 1913. Trump’s America First Policy is a return to protectionism and a rejection of the past—even present— move toward globalism.
Trump believes that “America has been taken advantage of through unfair trade practices which have weakened America’s “manufacturing, led to job losses, and made the country too dependent on foreign suppliers—particularly China.” He would like “to reduce our reliance on foreign nations for essential goods.” (TRUMP’S TARIFFS, p. 22). He believes he can do this and restore the tariff as the nation’s majority source of income as it once was, leaving the people untaxed.
Some are critical, as am I, as the Constitution gives only Congress the “Power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises”—not the president. But that authority too was transferred by FDR to the Executive Branch by his signing the Reciprocal Trade Agreements Act of 1934 (Ibid., p. 23). So Trump is not violating the Constitution by initiating tariffs as used by both parties for ninety years.
But that is a small issue next to Trump’s attempt to reveal and destroy the ‘secret combination’ now commonly called the Deep State and Congress seems unable to impeach even a single rogue judge. We’ll correct Mr. Trump later. Other than Kennedy and Reagan, Trump is the only president willing to take a bullet to remove the Deep State.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally most presses still missed the most important JFK Assassination File Finding. It wasn’t about whether there were multiple shooters or one, whether Lee Harvey Oswald was that good of a shooter or wasn’t, whether there was a magic bullet or wasn’t, whether the bullet entered Kennedy’s head from the front or behind etc. Some can’t see the forest for the trees—or do not want to—as in the case of Deep State presses. These details are important but hide the forest.
President Trump releases 2,800 CIA secret documents known to exist but kept from the people for 62 years through several JFK investigations, until all involved were unpunished and safely dead. That makes them accomplices, to the crime. The documents prove the Deep State CIA responsible for the assassination. All past presidents knew of the existence of these files especially Gerald Ford, a member of Johnson’s Warren Commission, and George Herbert W. Bush, a past CIA director, but only Trump, despite enormous opposition, allowed them declassified. Both Kennedy and Trump fought their Deep State’s and worked to expose them and both took a bullet to the head for doing so.
So let me be more blunt. The JFK Assassination Files released by President Trump revealed Kennedy’s own government killed him, specifically the CIA, and was powerful enough to hide, perhaps the most public crime in American history even successfully covering it up, through multiple investigations for 62 years. That a Deep State then existed capable of perhaps a crime of the century such that it affected every American then born, the entity responsible was never identified, punished and removed thus is still in place (See “John F. Kennedy Assassination Files Revealed, A State Within a State,” LibertyUnderFire.com March 26, 2025). The Files document the existence of a Deep State without a thread of evidence that it no longer exists.
Although details are very interesting to historians, we can not let the present Deep State bury this crime under a mountain of frivolous detail that allows the above truth to disappear again—that our own government—not a foreign government—killed our president without consequence. We must do as Kennedy promised to do. “I will splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the wind.” Kennedy probably had no idea that the Deep State was by then as pervasive as it was. The media aided and abetted in the cover up or this would have been exposed years ago. Democrats, of all people, should be most firmly with Trump in destroying the Deep State’s shadow government. It assassinated their president!! The Democrat Party must now unite with Trump in removing the Deep State from America. We need their support. Some lifelong former Democrats have already done so notably: Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The Deep State controlled virtually all major media outlets including Twitter. It was Musk who purchased Twitter and allowed it to have a free speech platform to enable opposition to Deep State propaganda. He renamed it X. He had never before voted Republican. Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democratic Congresswoman, now Trump’s Director of National Intelligence (DNI), just revoked security clearances for a number of high profile Deep State players in the Biden Administration including the former President and his family (Breitbart News). And Robert F. Kennedy Jr. former presidential candidate running against Trump, himself the nephew of the murdered president, and has done more than any other person to alert Americans to pharmaceutical fraud.
Kennedy told reporters on April 27th 1961 of his Deep State, which is equally descriptive of our own today, in a “Secret Societies” speech, called The President and the Press. The speech was delivered at the American Newspaper Publishers Association in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, New York City. It reads in part, “We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding it’s sphere of influence, on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned.…It conducts the Cold War in short with a wartime discipline, no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.”
What we now know from the newly released 62 year old documents is that the CIA always had these in their possession and would not release them as they were culpable in the assassination. This photo purports to contain the CIA’s Assassination Directive for President Kennedy. Although we can mostly read this, we cannot confirm. To us it is more likely that it would be a voiced suggestion—for plausible denial. We would not be shocked if it came from Lyndon Johnson himself. Its the holding back that leads us to almost expect this extreme suggestion.
His phrase “on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day” referenced the CIA’s guerrilla Bay of Pigs Invasion of Cuba just enacted days before, that Kennedy inherited from the Eisenhower Administration. Kennedy was not talking about the USSR but America— about a covert entity, the CIA, that had embedded itself within our government. Created by Harry Truman, as the intelligence arm of the president, it had voided that assigned mission to one more akin to regime change which was what the CIA was doing in Cuba and elsewhere throughout the world. With time that morphed into the New World Order threat of the eighties and nineties and today into Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum’s Great Reset scam for world control.
So how do the JFK files help us understand Deep State activity today? Clandestine, an investigative reporter, summarized it best. “The JFK files don’t just prove CIA criminality in the past, they add much needed context to understand the corruption of the present. They add validity to the belief that the CIA USAID created C 19. They add validity to the CIA State Department coordinated regime change in Ukraine in 2014. They add validity to the belief that the CIA / Ukraine attempted to assassinate Trump. They add validity to the CIA USAID controlled much of the media around the globe. The JFK files prove that the CIA was willing to use any means necessary to get what they want. The JFK files prove that a Deep State is real and there are zero indications that it ever went away because the Deep State never went away” (X22 Report, Ep. 3601b, March 21, 2025, 19:00).
UNBELIEVABLY most presses missed the most important JFK Assassination File finding. If not identified, punished and removed completely this “secret combination” will return to power again very soon—perhaps in just 3 years and nine months. Other than the death of Lee Harvey Oswald, himself killed by Jack Ruby, no one paid a price for this crime then, nor has anyone yet for the 2020 Deep State overthrow of the US government. The Deep State’s present strategy is to just outlast Trump and keep him busy with judicial activists suits until then.

By now everyone knows that George Soros (94) received the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award alongside Hillary Clinton from the out going Joe Biden presidency— but few know the extent of this story. George Soros, the Hungarian immigrant to America, likes to rule from the shadows (the dark side). LibertyUnderFire first published about him in 2010, “Is George Soros the Most Influential Man on Earth?” After the death of David Rockefeller the answer was yes! And on October 9, 2020, “Is George Soros America’s Leading Insurrectionist?” Yes again!!
Joe Biden awards George Soros (94) the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award, the highest civilian award in the land. Alex Soros, his son, receives it for him. Given Soros’ Deep State world government background, Joe Biden could not find a person less deserving for the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award. Mitt Romney, in the background, is here to receive the same for his deceased father George Romney, former governor of Michigan.
The following tribute announced why he was selected for the most prestigious civilian award given by the president. It reads: “George Soros is an investor, philanthropist, and founder of the Open Society Foundations. Through his network of foundations, partners and projects in more than 120 countries, Soros has focused on global initiatives [world government] that strengthen democracy, human rights, education, and social justice” (White House, Jan. 4, 2025). He is at the center of the Deep State. Any appointment in a government would be a step down for him.
His history tells it all. The Washington Examiner described Soros as, “The kingmaker of chaos: George Soros’s failed experiments threaten his kingdom,” by Gabe Kaminsky, August 9, 2024. Likely the most hated man in the world from “beyond the US, to Armenia, Australia, Honduras, the Philippines and many other countries.” Neither Russia or China will allow him on their soil.
“Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused Soros of being at the heart of a Jewish conspiracy to ‘divide’ and ‘shatter’ Turkey and other nations. In Italy, former deputy prime minister Matteo Salvini accused him of wanting to fill the country with migrants because ‘he likes slaves.’ The leader of the UK’s Brexit Party, Nigel Farage, has claimed Soros is ‘actively encouraging people… to flood Europe’ and “in many ways is the biggest danger to the entire Western World (“Why is billionaire George Soros a bogeyman for the hard right?” September 6, 2019, BBC).
But in his birth country, Hungary, he is hated the most. Prime Minister Viktor Orban and his populist nationalist government “claim that Soros has a secret plot to flood Hungary with migrants and destroy their nation.” The Hungarian government “has spent 100m euros on a media campaign warning voters not to let Soros ‘have the last laugh’ and introduced what it calls ‘Stop Soros’ laws, criminalizing help for illegal immigrants and taxing support for organizations ‘promoting migration.’” They do not allow immigration because they believe the practice is being used by Deep State globalists to destroy their country.
Orban, an international advocate for freedom and national sovereignty, and friend to Donald Trump,—just opposite Soros—probably most accurately characterizes Soros. He said, “We are fighting an enemy that is different from us. Not open but hiding. Not straight forward but crafty. Not honest but unprincipled. Not national but international. Does not believe in working [for a living] but speculates with money. Does not have its [his]own homeland but feels it [he] owns the whole world” (Ibid.).
In America he is accused of the same things. Everyone knows that the illegal immigrant caravans are organized and financed by someone, presumably Soros. And on their arrival financing is shifted to the taxpayer. Soros is also accused of funding the Antifa and Black Lives Matter city chaos of 2020—and other “rent a mob” movements like last years Palestine Liberation campus encampments. Most of these participants could not tell you where Palestine is.
One of many George Soros’ billboards in Hungry. The Hungarian government “has spent 100m euros on a media campaign warning voters not to let Soros ‘have the last laugh’ and introduced what it calls ‘Stop Soros’ laws, criminalizing help for illegal immigrants and taxing support for organizations ‘promoting migration.’” He has influence in 120 + countries but his birth country, Hungry, hates him the most. He uses his billions to subvert the will of the people who oppose socialism, illegal immigration, and world government.
In America Soros has given his main group, the Open Society Foundations, $32 billion for what it calls democracy-building efforts in the United States and around the world. In addition, in the United States, Soros has personally contributed more than $75 million over the years to federal candidates and committees, according to Federal Election Commission and IRS records. During the 2016 campaign, Soros donated more than $16 million to groups supporting Hillary Clinton.
Soros has vested money in District Attorney races in 17 states over the past few years these include: Florida, California, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia. Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Louisiana, Missouri, Illinois, Mississippi, Georgia, and New York (Soros’ Prosecutorial Power Grab, https://youtu.be/q1k1gvPOxSo). His intent is to burn down American cities by financing Democrat District Attorneys who open our jails allowing criminals to repeat their crimes destroying justice and safety which makes him an enemy to all who love liberty.
His hatred for Donald Trump is well known. “Clearly I consider the Trump Administration a danger to the world,” he told the World Economic Forum, in their Annual Meeting 2020, in Davos, January 21-24.
But it is his bid to take over talk radio that is the nation’s major threat today. He just purchased over 200 radio stations. The Federal Communications Commission last Fall “adopted an order allowing Soros, through his firm Soros Fund Management, to purchase Audacity, the nation’s second-largest radio network. Audacity operates radio stations in more than 46 US markets and includes shows by Sean Hannity, Mark Levin and others” (“Soros’ Acquisition of 200 US Radio Stations Ahead of Election Being Fast-Tracked by FCC,” By Jared Harris, The Western Journal). It is reasonable that he would eventually seek to silence these voices. Fait accompli. A large part of the radio industry will be compromised in favor of the far-left as is cable news.
Outside the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) who seeks to replace America as the world’s most powerful nation, Soros is the world’s leading threat to freedom—most certainly in America. With “foundations, partners and projects in more than 120 countries” with intent to destroy freedom in each, Joe Biden could not find a person less deserving for the Presidential Medal of Freedom Award. Why would he do so? Because neither value freedom or the will of the people.
