The Gangster State strikes again, with a full-blown presidential pardon for a convicted cocaine trafficker and conspirator who corrupted the Honduran government with his crimes as president. The people must defend freedom and the rule of law against mobster politicians.

A lawsuit previously alleged that David Gentile—just pardoned by Trump— was an associate of Russian organized crime figure and oligarch Michael Cherney.

A business news outlet found that Cherney’s daughters benefited from some of Gentile’s earliest dealings.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Why does Trump protect some drug traffickers while murdering others?
1. President Trump is directly and publicly intervening in the elections of a foreign nation and has also promised to grant a pardon to former President of Honduras Juan Orlando Hernández.

Trump & family spent the last 4 years making the airtight case that they view the presidency as simply a means to enrich themselves and their associates - from funneling taxpayer money to their private business, gouging Secret Service & raising legal defense funds that go directly to their pockets

I've written about how Don Jr and Eric Trump and Dominari Holdings are linked with a network tied to Barry Honig

Don Jr is an investor in Thumzup Media which will combine w/Dogehash Technologies - where Barry's brother Jonathan was a big funder - links to the same network

Dominari Holdings and Unusual Machines have many links to Barry Honig who was accused by the SEC of running a $27M stock fraud scheme

Dominari’s newest 5%+ investor, Peter Benz at Blue Finn Group, has past links to Barry Honig's brother Jonathan and Philip Frost accused by the SEC in Honig fraud

Putin launched Europe’s biggest war since WWII — killing civilians, kidnapping children, and eliminating political opponents. Yet Mr. Witkoff says he’s “not a bad guy.” Diplomacy requires engaging with dictators, but that doesn't mean we have to check our values at the door.
