The most successful head of government in Europe, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, does not hide her conservatism and is willing to openly engage the media’s prejudice against the right-wingers.

While holding her annual press conference in Rome, she was asked whether Elon Musk’s postings constituted ‘dangerous interference’ in European affairs, to which Meloni replied in the negative.

TV5Monde reported:

“Italy’s far-right Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni on Thursday came to the defense of Elon Musk, saying his criticism of European leaders was scandalous only because he is right-wing.”

In Meloni’s opinion, Musk is simply exercising his freedom of expression – unlike Globalist/left-wing figures such as supervillain George Soros.

“’The problem is (rather) when rich people use their resources to finance parties and associations, as well as politicians, all over the world to influence the political choices of states’, she said.

‘That’s not what Musk does. Elon Musk financed an election campaign in his country, for his candidate, in a country where, I note in passing, this is quite common’, she observed. But, as far as I know, Elon Musk does not fund parties, associations or politicians around the world’, she stressed. ‘This is what George Soros is doing, for example. And yes, I consider this [Soro’s funding] to be a dangerous interference in the affairs of states and their sovereignty’.”

The TV5 reporting has a bit of humor in it, where they say Soros ‘supports NGOs around the world in support of good governance and the rule of law’. Can they be any more deluded?

“Meloni also denounced the silence of the left during the ‘interference’ of German politicians in the 2022 Italian election campaign that nevertheless led to her victory, while the same left is now outraged by Musk’s support for the AfD, a far-right party, in Germany.”

Musk reacted with humor to the exchange, using – as he often does – a meme to express his take on the subject.

Karen Bass struggles to read script during presser on Los Angeles fires

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass held a press conference on Thursday morning to brief the public on the ongoing wildfires raging out of control in her city and the greater LA area.

Several fires are currently burning in Los Angeles with near zero percent containment.

Gusty Santa Ana Winds and dry fire hydrants are making it nearly impossible for firefighters to contain the fire.

LA’s incompetent and corrupt Mayor, Karen Bass, was actually in Africa when the fires exploded in her city.

Karen Bass slashed Fire Department funding by $17.6 million a few months before the fires erupted on Tuesday.

Mayor Bass once again botched an emergency relief website while reading her prepared remarks.

WATCH:

A reporter pointed out to Karen Bass that he had watched homes burn down, and there were no firetrucks anywhere to be seen.

“My number one focus…is that we have to protect lives, we have to save lives, and we have to save homes. Rest assured —” Karen Bass said.

It’s a little too late for that. More than 1,000 homes burned down, several people are dead and 2,000 structures have been reduced to ashes.

The reporter interrupted Karen Bass: “But that did not happen!”

“Let me finish!” Karen Bass said lashing out at the reporter.

WATCH:

Karen Bass gaslighted the public and claimed her slashing millions in firefighting funding had no impact on this week’s wildfires.

“There were no reductions that would have impacted the situation that we have been dealing with,” Karen Bass said.

“It’s most important to understand that we were in tough budgetary times, [and] the impact of our budget really did not impact what we’ve been going through over the past few days,” she said.

This is next-level gaslighting.

WATCH:

Karen Bass refuses to take any responsibility for her failed policies that contributed to the most destructive fire in history.

On Wednesday a Sky News reporter cornered Karen Bass and absolutely torched her over her failed policies.

Karen Bass was stunned and hung her head in shame as the reporter lambasted her.

Michelle Obama, Who Was Supposed to Sit Next to President Trump at the Carter Funeral, Misses the Event

Michelle Obama, Who Was Supposed to Sit Next to President Trump at the Carter Funeral, Misses the Event

Astute readers may have noticed a particularly glaring absence at former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral, and the supposed reason for her absence will raise a few eyebrows.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, a national funeral service is currently being held for Carter, who passed away at the age of 100 last week, at Washington National Cathedral this morning. This marks the conclusion of his state funeral, as NBC News notes.

Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, and President-elect Donald Trump are all in attendance. Joe Biden, who declared a National Day of Mourning and closed the federal offices today, will deliver the eulogy.

But Barack Obama’s wife, Michelle, never bothered to show up to pay her respects to the 39th President. Politico notes that Michelle would have had to sit next to Trump had she attended the proceeding.

Because of his wife’s absence, Barack Obama ended up taking her place next to Trump. As one will see, he and Trump appeared to be having a good time:

But a person “familiar” with Michelle’s schedule ‘assured‘ Politico that she was not trying to snub the 45th and soon-to-be-47th president. Instead, the unnamed Obama source claimed Barack’s wife had a “scheduling conflict” and was forced to stay in Hawaii.

This individual refused to specify precisely what conflict was so severe that Michelle had to miss the funeral. But the fact that she was supposed to sit next to the person she loathes perhaps more than anyone in the world should not be ignored.

However, Michelle did have an aide pass along her condolences to the Carter family instead of an appearance.

“Mrs. Obama sends her thoughts and prayers to the Carter family, and everyone who loved and learned from the remarkable former President,” said Crystal Carson, a spokesperson for Michelle Obama.

Last year, Michelle Obama shared her disdain and fear of Trump regarding what was then a hypothetical return to the White House. This news came as speculation emerged that she was planning on seeking the presidency herself.

Here is what she said to Jay Shetty on his podcast “On Purpose” back in January 2024:

Things that keep me up because you, you don’t have control over them. And you wonder, where are people that, where are we in this? You know, where are our hearts? What’s gonna happen in this next election?

I am terrified about what could possibly happen. Because our leaders matter. Who we select. Who speaks for us. Who holds that bully pulpit. It affects us in ways that I sometimes think people take for granted

Just as Trump Warned: Senate Democrats Secretly Move to Sabotage and Delay Tulsi Gabbard Confirmation

Trump warned about this.

Senate Democrats are quietly working to delay Tulsi Gabbard’s confirmation hearing next week.

President Trump nominated Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence.

“I am pleased to announce that former Congresswoman, Lieutenant Colonel Tulsi Gabbard, will serve as Director of National Intelligence (DNI). For over two decades, Tulsi has fought for our Country and the Freedoms of all Americans. As a former Candidate for the Democrat Presidential Nomination, she has broad support in both Parties – She is now a proud Republican! I know Tulsi will bring the fearless spirit that has defined her illustrious career to our Intelligence Community, championing our Constitutional Rights, and securing Peace through Strength. Tulsi will make us proud!” Trump said in November.

Late last month President Trump sounded the alarm on Senate Democrats’ plan to “improperly stall and delay the confirmation process” of many of his Cabinet nominees.

Senate Democrats are secretly sabotaging Tulsi Gabbard’s confirmation by claiming she has not provided enough “vetting materials.”

Axios reported:

Senate Democrats are forcing a delay in Tulsi Gabbard’s confirmation hearing next week, claiming she hasn’t provided required vetting materials — while Republicans accuse them of playing games, Axios has learned.

Why it matters: It’s the first taste of what’s expected to be a drama-filled few weeks as the Senate takes up some of President-elect Trump’s most controversial Cabinet picks.

  • Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), the vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, is balking at GOP requests to hold a hearing for Gabbard early next week, according to multiple sources familiar with the conversations.
  • Gabbard, a former member of the House, is Trump’s pick for national intelligence director.
  • Warner has pointed out that the committee has not yet received Gabbard’s FBI background check, ethics disclosure or a pre-hearing questionnaire, a source familiar with the matter told us. Committee rules require the background check a week in advance of a hearing.

The other side: Gabbard completed the background check process last week, according to a source working with the nominee. Her active security clearance also means the process will be expedited.

In 2022, former Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard announced that she was leaving the Democrat party, calling Democrats the party of warmongers and wokeness.

WATCH:

In October, Tulsi announced she is joining the Republican party at a Trump rally in North Carolina.

“I’m joining the party of the people. The party of equality. The party founded to fight against and end slavery… It is the party of common sense and the party that is led by a president who has the courage and strength to fight for peace,” Tulsi said.

Romanian Presidential Elections Will Be Held AGAIN on May 4th – Globalist Establishment Desperate That Right-Wing Georgescu Still Has the Support of 40% of the Voters

Romanian Presidential Elections Will Be Held AGAIN on May 4th – Globalist Establishment Desperate That Right-Wing Georgescu Still Has the Support of 40% of the Voters
January 9, 2025

All over Europe, the mainstream parties have tried to prevent right-wing candidates from taking advantage of the European climate that is shifting citizens’ opinions towards the right side of the political spectrum.

In Romania they went as far as annulling the whole election under the bogus suspicion of ‘Russian interference’.

Now, the ruling coalition in Bucharest agreed to rerun a two-round presidential election on May 4 and May 18.

The liberals and Globalists will endorse a single candidate to try to keep right-wing Calin Georgescu from repeating his win in the annulled first presidential round on Nov. 24.

Reuters reported:

“Amid suspicions of Russian interference, the top court annulled the presidential election and ordered the new coalition government to rerun it in its entirety.

Romania’s outgoing president, Klaus Iohannis, will stay on as head of state until the May election. The new government will approve the calendar for the new ballot on Monday, the Liberals said.

The coalition parties say they agreed to back a single presidential candidate to prevent the far right from winning. Their candidate is Crin Antonescu, a former Liberal leader, though analysts say they may yet switch to backing somebody else.”

Georgescu was victim of a Globalist coupo that annulled the November vote.

But, to the desperation of Romania’s Globalist Political establishment, the candidate they smeared as ‘pro-Putin and far-right’ remains the voters’ first choice.

Financial Times reported:

“More than 40 per cent of respondents surveyed by Verifield in late December said they would back Călin Georgescu for the presidency.

The survey was carried out weeks after the country’s constitutional court annulled a first-round vote in which the far-right candidate came first, saying he probably benefited from an illegal campaign coordinated by Moscow.”

’Georgescu is undoubtedly the biggest danger Romanian democracy has faced in its post-communist history’, [Liberal politician Nicusor Dan] told the Financial Times. ‘His recent performance and our polling numbers confirm that this will be anything but a normal election, as the stakes are high and a large part of the electorate is very angry’.”
