During his powerful address to the United Nations General Assembly, U.S. Ambassador Mike Waltz delivered a clear message to member states: it is time to stop appeasing Cuba’s communist regime and to recognize the undeniable failure of the island’s economic and social system. Waltz urged nations to vote with conscience and courage, reminding them that every vote supporting the Cuban government perpetuates repression and poverty for its people.

With a firm tone, the U.S. representative emphasized that the international community must stop blaming the United States for Cuba’s internal problems and accept that no communist system

Deep State FBI and DOJ officials are already starting to leak information on Kash Patel’s decision to conduct a predawn raid and arrest multiple people planning a terror attack over the Halloween weekend.

“This morning the FBI thwarted a potential terrorist attack and arrested multiple subjects in Michigan who were allegedly plotting a violent attack over Halloween weekend,” Patel said.

“More details to come. Thanks to the men and women of FBI and law enforcement everywhere standing guard 24/7 and crushing our mission to defend the homeland,” Kash Patel said.

Fox News later reported that the thwarted terror attack was connected to ISIS. Details were not immediately available.

Immediate details of the raid were unclear on Friday morning but Deep State officials at the FBI and DOJ are leaking to MSNBC to undermine Kash Patel.

Per a leak to MSNBC: “Senior Justice Department and FBI officials expressed frustration Friday that FBI Director Kash Patel publicly disclosed an investigation into what he called a “potential” Halloween weekend terrorist plot near Detroit — before investigators had a chance to flesh out key details, including whether the attack actually was imminent, two people familiar with the matter told MSNBC.”

The leakers claimed Kash Patel ‘acted hastily’ without Main Justice’s approval.

“Justice officials registered concern that Patel appeared to have acted hastily on the probe without Main Justice’s approval, with the apparent goal of seeking some credit for the FBI, but in a way that could interfere with the investigation, according to the sources. MSNBC has not named them as they fear retaliation,” MSNBC reported.

Another prominent Trump nemesis might be about to be in the federal crosshairs following an explosive report involving payments to a male Haitian-American campaign staffer over the course of several years.

As Fox News reported, Rep. Eric “Fang Fang” Swalwell’s (D-China) campaign has raised alarm bells after offering several different explanations for the payments, which totaled roughly $360,000 and go back to 2021.

From Fox News:

FEC filings from Swalwell for Congress and his Remedy PAC, dating back to 2021 and as recently as last month, show over 75 payments to an individual named Darly Meyer, with various reasons given for the disbursements. Individual payments vary from as little as $53 to over $12,000.

Based on the payments, Meyer has earned varying amounts each year, including over 27 payments last year that added up to over $120,000. He is also on pace to make over $120,000 in 2025.

The FEC filings list several different reasons for the payments, ranging from travel expenses, car service, security services, and salary. There are also several payments to Meyer for things like “personal travel expense reimbursement,” “event flowers reimbursement” and postage.

Swalwell took to X to respond to the explosive Fox News report. He claimed the reason for this was due to him and his family receiving death threats, and wondered if he should send the bill.

“LOL get this — @Pete_Pinedo of Faux News emailed and asked why I’ve spent $350,000 on security,” Swalwell wrote. “I responded, ‘because there’s a direct correlation between the lies Fox tells about me and the death threats that follow aimed at me and my kids.’”

“Maybe I should send Pete the bill?”

Hans von Spakovsky, a former FEC commissioner and now senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation, explained to Fox News that “this is the type of bizarre inconsistency that should catch the attention of the FEC.”

He went on to say that this revelation should “cause the agency’s auditing arm to investigate whether these were legitimate payments to a legitimate contractor.”

In addition to his work on Swalwell’s campaign, Meyer owns a North Hollywood-based limousine service called CYD Global Car Service, which specializes in luxury travel. The company offers professional chauffeurs, corporate shuttles, and limousine services.

Fox News also notes that Meyer serves as an administrator of a Facebook group called “CaliHaitians – Haitians in Az, Ca, Nv, Hi, Or, Wa,” which calls itself a “progressive community” of Haitians living in the United States. The group’s goal is to forge a “closer bond” with “head members of groups/organizations that are able to provide professional services to strengthen the community.”

This raises a difficult question: Why did Swalwell feel the need to allocate such a substantial amount of money to this individual, and what is this man’s actual role in the congressman’s campaign?

She’s as unlikeable as Hillary Clinton, and as trustworthy as her slick husband, Bill, in the Oval Office with an intern.

Michigan’s unpopular Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, who has earned the reputation of the most untrustworthy individual ever to serve as the state’s top election official, is like two Clintons for the price of one. But her latest campaign ad may prove she isn’t quite as savvy as the Clintons at hiding their obvious flaws.

From her lie about “Detroit Police covering the windows” of the TCF Center counting room during the 2020 election because the Republican poll challengers were locked out by partisan hack election workers because “windows were being broken”…

MI SOS Jocelyn Benson is a LIAR.

Listen to SOS Benson LYING to the now-deceased WJR talk show host Frank Beckmann about why the windows were being covered during the counting of 2020 absentee ballots in Detroit, at the TCF Center.

Why are USPS workers in Detroit dropping off stacks of ballots at Detroit drop boxes instead of delivering them to the Clerks office in Detroit?

Benson has been sued for election-related issues astounding 69 times since she became Michigan’s secretary of state, including a lawsuit over her stunning directive to clerks during the 2020 election, when she told them to ignore signature matching on absentee ballots. To date, in a state with several left-leaning, partisan judges, Benson has lost five lawsuits and had “mixed results” in 7 others.

Benson is currently being sued by the US Department of Justice for refusing to turn over Michigan’s dirty voter rolls, hilariously claiming she doesn’t want the federal government (which issues Social Security numbers) to have access to the Social Security numbers of Michigan’s registered voters.

Yesterday, in an embarrassingly self-own campaign ad she posted on X, Benson can be seen casually walking away while a young man attempts a “trust fall.” The man, who, for most Michigan residents, represents Michigan voters, can be seen crossing his arms and falling backward into what he hopes are Benson’s arms as she catches him. Instead, in what could be the worst campaign decision of her career, Benson can be seen smiling as she casually walks away, leaving the man (Michigan voters) to fall, signaling that she is not to be trusted.

In addition to the poor optics of her video, which point to her untrustworthiness, Benson also makes an outlandish statement: “You can’t trust corporate-backed politicians, but you can always trust me.”

Apparently Jocelyn Benson has a problem with “coporate backed” candidates running against her, but a closer look at her top donors reveal that included in the whopping $3.5 million Benson’s campaign has banked since Jan. 1, 2025, are contributions from mutliple billionaires, including billionaire and Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross and George Soros’ anti-American offspring Jonathan and his leftist wife, Jennifer Soros who oversee the JJASF, a radical leftist grantmaking foundation they created in 2009.

From 2012 to 2015, the Jennifer and Jonathan Allan Soros Foundation gave the Roosevelt Institute, a left-leaning think tank that asserts that the system of free-market capitalism is inherently unjust, $500,000.

Another effort that is near and dear to the Benson donors is the Advancement Project (AP). The AP organizes non-white communities into politically active groups in opposition to voter identification and other electoral integrity laws, pushes for the re-enfranchisement of felons with few restrictions, and campaigns to alter school discipline rules to reduce punishments for many infringements. From 2012 to 2013, the Soros donors to Benson’s campaign awarded it $400,000.

Benson got absolutely wrecked on X, with post after post reminding voters how dishonest or untrustworthy she is:

The escalation is continuing in the anti-cartel operations in Latin America, with drug-boat attacks and the deployment of the largest force to the region since the darkest days of the Cold War.

Yesterday, the WSJ reported that the Donald J. Trump administration had ‘identified targets in Venezuela that include military facilities used to smuggle drugs’.

Air and missile strikes are expected to force the hand of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro to step down.

The Wall Street Journal reported (behind a paywall):

“While the president hasn’t made a final decision on ordering land strikes, the officials said a potential air campaign would focus on targets that sit at the nexus of the drug gangs and the Maduro regime. Trump and his senior aides have been particularly focused on unsettling Maduro as the U.S. military has attacked boats allegedly carrying drugs in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific Ocean.”

Of course, the WSJ has just been named by Trump as ‘fake news’, and their reports need to be considered under great scrutiny, and not believed right away.

However, the Miami Herald also reported on this – and what’s more, indicates that the decision to strike has been taken, and the attacks are imminent.

“The Trump Administration has made the decision to attack military installations inside Venezuela and the strikes could come at any moment, sources with knowledge of the situation told the Miami Herald, as the U.S. prepares to initiate the next stage of its campaign against the Soles drug cartel.”

The strikes aim to destroy military installations used by the cartel allegedly headed by Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro.

“Sources told the Herald that the targets — which could be struck by air in a matter of days or even hours — also aim to decapitate the cartel’s hierarchy. U.S. officials believe the cartel exports around 500 tons of cocaine yearly, split between Europe and the United States.”

There is even speculation that Maduro himself may be one of the targets.

“’Maduro is about to find himself trapped and might soon discover that he cannot flee the country even if he decided to’, the source said. ‘What’s worse for him, there is now more than one general willing to capture and hand him over, fully aware that one thing is to talk about death, and another to see it coming’.”

“So far, the force has been used mainly in maritime operations. As of this week, U.S. strikes have targeted fast boats the administration says were carrying narcotics—most intercepted off Venezuela’s coast; the attacks have killed 61 suspected traffickers.”

Update: The White House responded: "Unnamed sources don’t know what they’re talking about," White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said in a Friday statement to Fox News. "Any announcements regarding Venezuela policy would come directly from the President."
