On Jan 6th, 2021, Josh Pruitt was at the Capitol to protest the 2020 Election results.

Josh spent almost three years in prison for exercising his free speech, his right to protest, and for refusing to back down on his belief that the 2020 election was illegitimate.

He was sentenced to 55 months for obstruction of an official court proceeding.

Josh was held in the number two most violent federal prison in the country. The conditions of the prison were terrible. Josh saw things that would traumatize most of us and was pepper sprayed many times.

***Please help Josh here.***

Josh told The Gateway Pundit, “I sat in prison at FCI, which is one of the most dangerous federal prisons and is infested with gangs.”

“Only two prisons hold MS13. We were one of them.”

“So there were people being murdered, stabbed, and raped where I was, and I had to always watch my back. There were no other J6ers , only me.”

On January 21st Josh was released in the middle of the night and fully pardoned by President Donald J Trump. He has been through a lot and is trying to start over from scratch.

“When I saw we got pardoned, I packed my stuff right away and was released that night at midnight.”

“I am a proud patriot who never placed blame on our president, I stood my ground. I am currently writing a book and working on speaking at events,” he shared.

Josh is beginning his entire life over from the ground up, including the need to buy food, clothes, and transportation and trying to acquire IDs, a job, and a more permanent place to live.

***Please help Josh here.***

Josh was a licensed bartender in the District of Columbia but cannot return.

His children and parents are in two different states, making a driver’s license and transportation essential.

His prison time was very harsh, without visitation, and as a result, has left an impact on his mental health.

Josh needs healing and help.

Josh added, “I’m a struggling J6er.  I’ve lost everything, and it seems I’m getting no traction on my GiveSendGo to try to start over.”

“I’m pretty much close to really not having a place to stay sooner rather than later if I don’t get some help, let alone trying to replace clothes and other things I don’t really have anymore.”

“I lost my car, my place , my kids….I literally came out of prison to nothing but what I wore on my back.”

Although the rightwing AfD party had its best voting outcome in history, doubling the last election results, the fact remains that Germany voted for things to remain basically the same.

The man expected to be the next Chancellor after failed Olaf Scholz, CDU’s leader Friedrich Merz adopted a clearly confrontational stance against the Donald J. Trump administration, going as far as warning that NATO may be finished and that Europe must have an alliance that is ‘independent’ from the US.

Merz added that Europe will have to have to build an ‘independent defense capability’ – regardless of the fact that Germany doesn’t have a single combat-ready division in its armed forces.

US President Trump described the German election result as a ‘great day for Germany and for the United States of America’ – but Merz is unmoved and believes Trump is ‘indifferent’ about the continent.

In his unprecedented criticism of Trump, he compared the US administration to ‘Moscow’ after Elon Musk backed the rightwing AfD in the German vote.

The Telegraph reported:

“’My absolute priority will be to strengthen Europe as quickly as possible so that, step by step, we can really achieve independence from the USA’, Mr. Merz said. ‘I never thought I would have to say something like this on a television program. But after Donald Trump’s statements last week at the latest, it is clear that the Americans, at least this part of the Americans, this administration, are largely indifferent to the fate of Europe. […] I am very curious to see how we are heading towards the Nato summit at the end of June … whether we will still be talking about Nato in its current form or whether we will have to establish an independent European defense capability much more quickly.’”

The campaign was shaken multiple times by senseless attacks by illegal migrants, and while the CDU/CSU bloc won 28.6 percent of the vote, it was followed by the rightwing AfD with 20.8 percent.

“His comments mark the strongest rebuttal of Mr. Trump any head of government has made in response to the US president’s growing cooperation with Russia and criticism of Volodymyr Zelensky. ‘I have absolutely no illusions about what is happening from America’, Mr Merz said on Sunday night.”

“’Just look at the recent interventions in the German election campaign by Mr. Elon Musk — that is a unique event. The interventions from Washington were no less dramatic and drastic and ultimately outrageous than the interventions we have seen from Moscow’.”

Merz stated that Germany is under ‘massive pressure’ from two sides (the US and Russia). He vowed to make his absolute priority to create ‘unity in Europe.’

“He added: ‘I am not sure what the American government’s position on this war will be in the coming weeks and months. My impression over the last few days is that Russia and America are coming together here, over the heads of Ukraine and therefore also over the heads of Europe’.”

Far-left, anti-Semitic Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) unsurprisingly lashed out at the American people in a disgusting manner after a GOP congressman called for her to be sent back to Somalia.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) circulated a petition earlier this month that called for the arrest and deportation of Omar for treason. Gill, a first-term Congressman and son-in-law of conservative filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza, urged supporters to sign a petition to deport Omar in a fundraising email.

Omar, the first Somali American elected to Congress, entered the United States in 1995 during the Somali Civil War by claiming refugee status. She became a citizen five years later at 17 years old, although there are reports that she married her brother to obtain a green card.

Omar sat down with Zeteo’s Mehdi Hasan on Sunday to respond to Gill’s provocative comments. What followed was an outrageous attack on Trump supporters and any American deviating from the leftist narrative.

WATCH:

A transcript of Hasan and Omar’s conversation comes courtesy of Real Clear Politics.

“You and I have discussed people attacking you in the past, but you have this new freshman Congressional Representative, this lawmaker Brandon Gill, Republican, who tweeted out that video of you and wrote America would be a better place if Ilhan Omar were deported back to Somalia,” Hasan began. “I mean, I thought I’d seen everything, and I’ve seen a lot of attacks on you.”

“But now you have a Republican colleague, dare I say, in the House saying to deport an American citizen, an American lawmaker, and an elected representative. How do you deal with that?” He inquired

Omar responded by insulting Gill and her other critics as idiots.

“These people are just idiots,” Omar replied. “I really am at the point where it has become really hard to have an intellectual debate with any of these people because the level of stupidity that they are displaying every single day is frankly embarrassing.”

Then she doubled down with an outrageous comment targeting the intelligence of the American people for daring to elect Trump.

“Not just in Congress but as Americans, and the fact that these people are allowed to say just the most ridiculous things tells you that the dumbing of the United States has arrived because how else do we get a Trump presidency again?”

Apple is betting on the continued strength of the U.S. economy under Donald Trump.

Following a meeting between Trump and Apple CEO Tim Cook, who was also in attendance at his inauguration last month, the technology giant has confirmed it will invest a staggering $500 billion in the U.S. and add 20,000 jobs over the next four years.

Bloomberg provides the details:

The company said Monday that it plans to spend $500 billion domestically over the next four years, which will include work on a new server manufacturing facility in Houston, a supplier academy in Michigan and additional spending with its existing suppliers in the country.

The disclosure comes days after Trump and Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook met in the Oval Office.

“He’s investing hundreds of billions of dollars,” Trump said after the meeting last week. He implied that the iPhone maker is investing locally because it does not want to pay tariffs.

Trump has threatened an additional 10% tax on items imported from China, where Apple builds the vast majority of iPhones and other products. But he has traded investment in the US for relief in the past.

The $500 billion investment and 20,000 new jobs over the next four years mark Apple’s biggest US commitment to date.

In a statement, Tim Cook said he was “bullish” about the future of American innovation.

“We are bullish on the future of American innovation, and we’re proud to build on our long-standing US investments with this $500 billion commitment to our country’s future,” Cook said in a statement.

“We’ll keep working with people and companies across this country to help write an extraordinary new chapter in the history of American innovation.”

Apple and Foxconn will begin producing Private Cloud Compute servers in Houston this year, shifting some cloud infrastructure manufacturing from overseas. A 250,000-square-foot facility for server production is set to open in the city next year.

Apple is also expanding data center capacity in Arizona, Oregon, Iowa, Nevada, and North Carolina, reinforcing its U.S. infrastructure.

While M-series chips powering these servers are still produced in Taiwan, Apple confirmed that mass production of chips began last month at TSMC’s Arizona plant, supplying components for Apple Watches and iPads.

Multiple photos and videos uploaded on X reveal several U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development headquarters monitors have been hacked.

The hacked monitors displayed an AI-generated image of President Trump licking the toes of Elon Musk.

The AI video on the monitors had the caption, ‘LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.”

Per Mediaite:

Federal workers showing up to the Housing and Urban Development federal building Monday morning were greeted by a video — presumably created by AI or some other type of fakery — on the television screens along the corridors showing President Donald Trump kissing and caressing DOGE chief Elon Musk’s feet, along with a message “LONG LIVE THE REAL KING.”

Reporters tweeted photos and videos of the strange video on Musk’s social media platform X. “Someone apparently hacked the televisions at HUD today,” wrote The Washington Post’s White House economics reporter Jeff Stein.

Rachel Leah Siegel, who covers housing issues for the Post, also posted images of the HUD television screens that she said were sent to her “[f]rom multiple people inside HUD headquarters in DC.” In a follow up tweet, she noted that it was “playing on tvs across the building.”
