Musk Twitter quoting Trump.

I am very, very happy about this.   Imagine the undergarment soiling going on with some of the upper level people who work at these agencies.  Or are they so arrogant as to think nothing will ever touch them, like Pritzker (vs. Homan)?   Well, we'll see, won't we?

When we hadn't heard anything about RFKJr for a few days, I was worried that perhaps Trump was betraying him.   However, he hasn't, and this is great for future work between the two parties.   

May RFKJr absolutely stomp on the corruption in these agencies.

My take on this may be a little hot, but throughout all of the conversations I've had over the past few days, my views are shared by nearly everyone I spoke with who was under the age of 50. The over 50 crowd....not so much.

Everyone is on the lookout for neocons but there's a beast that's equally as bad : the Israel first candidates.

Pete Hegseth.
Marco Rubio.
Kristi Noem.
Elisa Stefanik.
Mike Waltz.
Mike Huckabee.

All of these idiots value Israel's prosperity over American prosperity. And they've all proudly declared it many times. Occasionally you'll see a random Twitter post from any of these phonies joyfully announcing that Israel is our greatest ally ( but never declaring exactly why .) When I was younger I used to imagine they'd be tweeting this with a gun held to their head. Then I realized that it's actually just their assigned AIPAC agent making sure they pay their penance.

Ironically the 2 actual Jews in Trump's cabinet seem to represent American interests much more than the listed fools above. Stephen Miller and Lee Zeldin have show a strong record of supporting America first and Trump policies.

But the Israeli loyalty is a cancer in American politics. They're not exceptional as a nation. If any other nation had an AIPAC style lobby, they'd be registered as foreign agents.

Again some of Gen X, but much of the millenials and Gen Z completely understand this. The Zionist Christian boomers have a major blind spot on this issue.

I'll leave you with a quote from our incoming Secretary of Defense, U.S military veteran Pete Hegseth:

""anyone who wants to talk about dual loyalty is dead wrong. Zionism and Americanism are intertwined as "the front lines of Western civilization and freedom in our world today,"

No sir, Zionism and Americanism are certainly not intertwined. You serve one nation. Pick it

We’ve been strong allies of Israel since the late 1940’s. Not sure I get your angst. I also don’t see those on your list as idiots either.

Please post some links of those people putting Israel before America, I’m not aware of this. ????

I suspect it's tolerated because there's a systemic alignment of national security policy that remains mostly constant though various administrations, and our allies such as the UK, Saudi Arabia, and Israel are part of that. It would be chaos if State policies changed radically every four years. And I think you're right about generational perception.

Quote:How does AIPAC get away with it?

It gets away with it because AIPAC’s founder, I.L. Kenen, came up with a legal loophole by which AIPAC is defined not as a lobby for a foreign state but for Americans who support that state. It’s a critical distinction that makes AIPAC’s dominance over U.S. Middle East policy possible.

I worked at AIPAC directly for Kenen, back in the 1970s before moving on to Capitol Hill. He told me that he came up with the AIPAC formula — AIPAC as an American organization lobbying for Americans — so that AIPAC would be legally permitted to engage in politics and not have to reveal its activities. A devoted American and liberal Democrat, Kenen believed American and Israeli interests and values weren’t likely to diverge anyway, so what’s the problem?

After Kenen retired, Israel and AIPAC took a rightward turn, and he saw the mistake he made. Toward the end of his life, Kenen was outraged by the AIPAC leadership with its unquestioning support of the occupation of the West Bank and the blockade against Gaza, and other right-wing Israeli policies. He hated what he saw as AIPAC using its political power to keep the United States government and other influential Americans and, perhaps most important, the media from straying from the Israeli line.

Oh dear. Way too much to unpack in one post. But we gotta start somewhere. First, how old are you Krusty Krab? I don't ask in a mean spirited way. Demographics and specific ideologies are interesting to me.

Let's start with Kristi Noem.

As governor of South Dakota, Noem signed a bill that violates the first amendment blatently. Under her antisemitism bill, ANY CRITICISM OF THE NATION OF ISRAEL is viewed as antisemitism and is criminalized. Mind you, there are about 400 Jews in the entire state of South Dakota. So why was this issue so pressing?

She's already stated that as Secretary of Homeland Security she aims to implement similiar legislation on a federal level.

https://denyignorance.com/uploader/image...163839.jpg

And why does she need to constantly announce that she's protecting "Gods chose people" and not, oh I don't know....AMERICANS?!

https://denyignorance.com/uploader/image...163848.jpg

Marco Rubio. What a joke. Forget all the horrible things he said about Trump back when it was fashionable in the RINO crowd. He's been Israel's cockholster for years now.

https://denyignorance.com/uploader/image...170136.jpg

He's very much pushing towards war with Iran strictly to protect Israel interests. And as the potential Secretary of State, he's more than ready to sacrifice American lives to fight a war that isn't ours. 75% of Israel's military budget comes from the U.S. They need our young men and women too?

During an interview Rubio said this:

Marco Rubio to AIPAC: “I always used to joke we couldn’t get 100 senators to honor Santa Claus, but we got 100 people on board for Israel!"

Elisa Stefanik. Ambassador to the UN. But ambassador for whom? America? Pssssh.

Sorry, I'm gonna refer you to a Twitter link for you to see the fortune that this idiot has recieved to sell her country out to Israel. And yes, like Rubio, she is heavily pushing for war with Iran.

When you say Israel has been our strong ally since 1940's, I say this: We have many strong allies across the globe. The UK, France, Germany, etc. Do any of these nations have a lobbying organization like AIPAC that influences U.S. policy to the extent of AIPAC?

Serious question ^^

Furthermore, each member of the House and Senate is assigned their own personal AIPAC agent that they're essentially forced to interact with. ( with the exception of a few like Thomas Massie and Rand Paul.)

So I ask again. Why is Israel so special that they're allowed to control U.S. policies?

RKJr can easily start cleaning up the US food system by getting the US to adopt the same food additive restrictions Europe has. Of course food companies will kick & scream then raise prices astronomically. 

Not sure if price gouging laws would apply to the rise of food prices without a specific disaster?
(like plywood prices went insane after Katrina)
However the epidemic of chronic disease while a slow motion disaster might still qualify?
