The Castro regime has profited at the expense of the Cuban people with luxury cars, expensive watches and a private island resort. As I shared this with the world, regime thugs rushed the stage to interrupt my speech. They can intimidate their own people in Cuba but think again about trying that nonsense in the United States of America.

Good Morning ! Tea Leaves: It wasn't Dominion - or Smartmatic - or 'the Venezuelans' behind our election fraud coordination. It was agencies that we pay with our taxes to keep us safe and our elections fair and secure. They stopped the 2020 count to catch up. And got caught

NEWSFLASH: Dominion CTO Eric Coomer’s libel case against me for saying Dominion’s equipment rigs elections was just thrown out by the judge on summary judgment. Trial was supposed to start next Wednesday, but the judge read our evidence and realized I was correct. No libel.

Taking the Oath. Article II, Section 1, Clause 8 — Presidential Oath of Office — a duly elected President of the United States swears (or affirms) their oath of office, below is that oath: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, PRESERVE, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” I capitalize the word PRESERVE because this oath, unlike others taken by federal officials, is the only one to use the word PRESERVE. The @POTUS has a duty to not only protect and defend, but to PRESERVE our constitution. 
 Pray that our leadership understands this. I believe America is moving into previously uncharted waters, and our constitution is (will be) tested in the years ahead as maybe only one other time in U.S. history. Can it stand the test of the past of our American experience? I pray it does for the sake of our freedoms, our civic responsibilities, and especially our children. We still live in the greatest nation in human history, pray it stays that way. bensguide.gpo.gov/j-oath-off…

THE CIA TURNED HIM AWAY Former CIA officer Gary Berntsen, who helped lead operations in Afghanistan following 9/11, recounts approaching the CIA with financial intelligence related to what he describes as a $2.7 TRILLION cartel network. According to Berntsen, the agency refused to assist with the investigation, telling him the operation was simply “too big for us.” His response? “What am I supposed to do? Call the Boy Scouts or the Salvation Army?” WATCH OUR 100TH EPISODE | ELECTION INTEGRITY SPECIAL bit.ly/goingrogue_ep100 Filmed live at the America First Warehouse in Long Island, Lara Logan is joined by Gary Berntsen, Martin Rodil, Ralph Pezzullo, Tina Peters, Dr. Andrew Paquette, Mark Cook, Ed Solomon and Joe Hoft for an investigation into alleged election vulnerabilities, international networks and questions surrounding election integrity.

🚨 BREAKING Following Machado’s return, Delcy Rodríguez lashes out at the US, calling January 3 a military aggression, and takes the opportunity to congratulate socialist Lula da Silva, an adversary of President Trump, claiming that he is proof that “Latin America wants no more extremism.”

🇺🇸 SRES. TRUMP Y RUBIO, MIREN ESTAS DOS IMÁGENES, ESTAS DOS REALIDADES 🇻🇪 A la izquierda, el encargado de ‘negocios’ de EE. UU. en Caracas @usembassyve limpia la imagen de un gran corrupto que reaparece en los medios tras su gran desfalco al pais con Derwick Associates. La operación NABEP y ese aval personal es una afrenta para todo el pueblo venezolano. Resulta una torpeza inexplicable, e imperdonable. La brillante operación del 3 de enero, aplaudida por la inmensa mayoría de los venezolanos, quedó opacada por aquello de “la gente está bailando en las calles” y “al vencedor pertenecen los despojos”. A la derecha aparece una de las primeras imágenes de @MariaCorinaYA en Venezuela, en el Santuario de la Divina Pastora en Barquisimeto; luego se desplazó a Caracas, un recorrido de casi 400 kilómetros entre una multitud. Se trata de un pueblo hambriento que votó de forma pacífica para salir de esta brutal dictadura, y hoy se siente profundamente decepcionado por un tutelaje que ha pasado por alto su voluntad y sus prioridades. @realDonaldTrump y @SecRubio, aún cuentan con una oportunidad para ajustar su estrategia e incluir a los venezolanos en ella. Su legado no debe ser la rapiña, sino las prosperidad de un país que tiene razones históricas, y necesidades futuras, para ser un gran aliado de los EE.UU.

Esto es apenas el comienzo. El pueblo de Venezuela comienza a salir a las calles para recibir a Maria Corina Machado. Emocionante. Es la primera vez desde el 3 de enero que se vuelve a sentir el olor de la libertad. Día histórico.

Estoy aquí. Con ustedes

Intelligence community reform is long overdue. President Trump set out to get it done at the beginning of his second term, but it seems those efforts have been abandoned. The American people deserve a strong DNI who is empowered by POTUS to provide legitimate oversight of the IC. It’s why the role was established in the first place, after the abject failures of 9/11. Appointing Tulsi Gabbard as DNI was a shot across the bow that kicked the IC machine into overdrive, subverting and resisting any attempts for positive change every step of the way. Maybe POTUS got tired of the fight. The DNI is meant to serve as the final check on any intelligence coming from IC elements like the CIA/NSA/DOW to ensure the intel is presented to POTUS in its proper context. For example: Did we get this intel from a partner nation? How did they collect it? Why are they sharing it with us, and why now? In the lead up to the Iran war, intelligence was consistently presented to POTUS as “our intelligence,” when, in fact, it came from the Israelis. This is why DNI Gabbard’s public testimony was at times different than the CIA director’s—she testified to the U.S. Congress the consensus of the U.S. intelligence agencies, not of a foreign nation’s. Real IC reform cannot happen without an empowered DNI who is able to exercise the full scope of the role. The CIA is too proficient at handling the President’s appointed directors—it’s easy to get distracted once you’re caught up in the thrill of espionage & covert operations. Conversely, the DNI has the slightly more removed vantage point to assess operations & intelligence without being a part of the operations. Without a DNI looking into all covert action & special access programs to assess whether they’re aligned, these programs will continue to operate in the shadows—out of sight from POTUS, the public, & even most of the IC—all the while undermining POTUS’s agenda. The same concept applies to the DNI’s authority over the much-needed oversight of the FBI’s intelligence activities. Without an empowered DNI, there is no one looking into FBI investigations—like the J5 pipe bombs, the events of J6, or Butler, or Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The list goes on. Without the DNI overseeing the FBI, there is no check on domestic intelligence being used against the American people. Without legitimate oversight, the CIA & other IC elements will be permitted to continue enacting their own foreign policy, regardless of who the American people elect and the agendas we vote for.

Our Constitution is not negotiable. Freedom of speech, religious liberty, women’s rights, and equal protection under the law must never yield to religious coercion or a competing system of government. In this week’s newsletter, America’s Future addresses Sharia law and the constitutional concerns raised by efforts to impose religious rules through government authority. Board Chairman General Michael T. Flynn and Board Member Lara Logan underscore why defending individual liberty requires informed citizens willing to stand for it. Stand with America’s Future. Support our mission to educate Americans and defend the freedoms that belong to every citizen. The link to this week’s newsletter is in the comments. @GenFlynn @LaraLogan

He sure has it right.
