BORDER: The State Department says it will make permanent a visa bond program under which citizens from 50 countries are required to post bonds of up to $20,000 for business or tourist visas. The rule is intended to prevent immigrants from overstaying their visits. Visitors will get their bond money back upon the termination of the visa, as long as they have complied with the visa terms and conditions and have departed on time.

CATHOLIC: On July 31, 2026, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò posted, “On May 6, 2021, while the entire world was still under the yoke of the health dictatorship, the Holy See hosted—under the aegis of the Pontifical Council for Culture—a conference titled Exploring the Mind, Body & Soul. Unite to Prevent & Unite to Cure. Opening the proceedings was not a theologian, not a pastor, not a defender of natural law. It was Anthony Fauci. Beside him, Deepak Chopra, Chelsea Clinton… and, in the program, the top executives of Pfizer and Moderna.

“The same Holy See that should have raised its voice against the lie, against mass experimentation, against the suspension of fundamental rights, actively collaborated with the architects of what has been—and remains—one of the greatest operations of social control and health fraud in contemporary history: a true crime against humanity.”

ACTBLUE: A month ago, ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones repeatedly invoking the Fifth Amendment during a House hearing. She refused to even verify her name! [8:03] – CLICK https://x.com/mich_enjoyer/status/2079961553445491066 [4:16] to watch an interview with an ActBlue donor named Elizabeth Waffle (88). According to ActBlue’s records, Elizabeth has made 14,696 donations totaling more than $150,000 over the past five years. Elizabeth was forced to move into a shabby trailer two years ago after her house burned down. She owns an old pickup truck, but no computer. At the time of the interview, she did not have enough money to pay the lawn guy. Elizabeth says of the donations record, “I don’t have that kind of money.”

DEMOCRATS: The answers on this thread are fun. They include “(the sound of silence)”, “I’ll go make some popcorn while we wait”, “How about I just bring you a live unicorn?

The only real answer given by a few was “Sen. John Fetterman.”

EDUCATION: In the mid-1970s, I dated a guy in college who became convinced one of his professors was only reading the first and last pages of his students’ exam “blue books.” So for one exam, my bf wrote a good intro and conclusion on these two pages, but filled the entire inside with a detailed description of a recent football game. He even included those X and O charts so beloved by football coaches, which, if the prof had even glanced at the insides, would’ve caught his attention. The prof gave him an A.

HEALTH: Blood pressure after 60 is far more complicated than simply “the lower the better.” In this video, Dr. Alex explains why the best target depends on the person sitting in front of you, not just the number on the machine. [16:51] – After my father died, we learned something important about blood pressure and medication doses. My mother had been my father’s primary care giver in his final years. After he passed, she suddenly had much less day-to-day stress, which, minus a reduction in her bp meds dosage, resulted in her having too-low symptoms.

IRAN: [15:51] – We may be only a few weeks away from the complete destruction of the Islamist regime.

MIDTERMS: The Democratic National Committee (DNC) has $16.3M cash on hand with $18.5M in debt. Fifteen million of that debt was secured using the DNC’s own headquarters in D.C. as collateral.

Meanwhile, the Republican National Committee (RNC) has $128.5M in cash on hand with zero debt.

SAVE America Act: The “Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act” calls for every voter proving he or she is an American citizen when registering to vote and producing proof of ID when voting. Despite its overwhelming popularity with voters, Democrats have been stonewalling its passage. The latest attempt to get it passed involved attaching it to the National Defense Authorization Act for 2026 (NDAA) which passed the House on July 22 on a 216-212 vote.

UK: Khadija Patel was recently awarded with the British Citizen Award in recognition of her work empowering young women.

GRAMMY NOTES: When one of my grandsons was four years old, he was watching a video that introduced him for the first time to the Passion. When the soldiers came into the garden to arrest Jesus, our precious boy grabbed his toy sword and ran at the television to protect his best friend. Later, he asked his mom and his dad why Jesus had been crucified and they both said, “Hmmm. We’ll ask Father after Mass on Sunday.” Father had the same reaction, but had nobody to pass the buck to! I don’t know what he said exactly, but I have often wondered … how do you explain this to a four-year-old?!

CATHOLIC: More than one thousand faithful Australian Catholics knelt and prayed the Rosary outside of a former Catholic church where a blasphemous LGBTQ-themed performance mocking Christian themes was taking place.

A Catholic group said in a statement, “The publicly accessible material included performers dressed as nuns, exorcism parodies, references to ‘unholy water’ and depictions involving Holy Communion.”

The founder of the offensively named “Divine Playhouse” announced they’ve been evicted from the building.

DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS OF AMERICA: Gary Varvel writes –

Remember when the old guard Democrats chanted “blue, no matter who”? Well, it looks like they’ll be wearing communist red instead. Their big tent has officially been overrun by card-carrying socialist snakes, and they are about to squeeze the life out of the geriatric donkeys.

Party centrists are discovering the hard way: if you feed the snake, eventually the snake feeds on you.

Look no further than Ethiopian-born politician Melat Kiros, who recently won her primary for Colorado’s 1st Congressional District. She bluntly proclaimed:

There is a shift in the global world order that exists today. And a fundamental shift that we have to have going forward… That means getting more immigrants into office.”

Is that really what America needs?

Deuteronomy 17:15 issued a clear warning to Israel: “Do not place a foreigner over you.”

Furthermore, in Deuteronomy 28, God lists the severe consequences brought upon Israel for turning away from Him—including drought, disease, and pestilence.

Then verses 43–44 spell out the social turning point:

The foreigners who reside among you will rise above you higher and higher, but you will sink lower and lower… They will be the head, but you will be the tail.

With the recent onslaught of foreign-born candidates rising through the ranks, one has to wonder if America is experiencing a similar judgment.

The U.S. Constitution explicitly requires the President to be a natural-born citizen—a sensible requirement designed to safeguard our nation from leaders with divided loyalties. Why shouldn’t that same restriction apply to every high office governing our land?

DEMOCRATS: [12:09] – Dr. Steve expands on the current state of the Democrat Party.

MEDICAID: The federal government is pausing more than $1 billion in Medicaid payments to two fraud-ridden states – California and Minnesota – until they can prove that all of the payments are for legitimate health care services.

MIDTERM$: [13:10] – The news could not be worse for Dems.

NEW JERSEY: Gov. Sherrill blames a software error for the fact that roughly 6,600 non-citizens were registered to vote between June 2023 and June 2024.

Trump’s Speech

Election Integrity documents @ https://www.whitehouse.gov/election-integrity/

Ensuring the integrity of our elections is fundamental to preserving trust in American democracy. Following the 2020 presidential election, concerns about potential irregularities prompted detailed examinations of voting processes, data security, and registration practices across multiple states. Below, you can download documents and reports addressing key areas of election integrity. They cover:

Vulnerabilities in Electronic Voting & Ballot-Counting Systems – For years Americans were blatantly lied to about the security of our election infrastructure, including electronic voting machines and ballot-counting systems. We are releasing a series of previously-classified U.S. Intelligence Community Assessments and other reports proving that our government has long known these machines are extremely exposed to attack.

China’s Acquisition and Exploitation of American Voter Data – Over a period of years starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People’s Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history—resulting in China’s illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files. That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote, and engage in other nefarious activities. This data loss presents an unprecedented election security nightmare. The intelligence even shows that China assigned a data exploitation unit specifically to this new project.

Michigan Voter-Registration Investigation – Even when significant evidence of fraud has been detected, it has been buried and covered up. Among the disclosures are FBI files detailing evidence of alleged fraud by a large-scale voter registration operation in Michigan. In 2020, Michigan State Police raided a Democrat get-out-the-vote organization in Muskeegon, and were so concerned by what they found, that they contacted the FBI in Detroit. The documents state that some canvassers admitted to FBI agents that they signed voter registration forms in other people’s names, submitted fraudulent registrations for people who did not exist, and received gift cards tied to the number of applications they produced. The FBI agents working on the case believed that crimes were committed—yet the Biden Department of Justice slow-walked the investigation for years. Director Patel is being directed to ensure that the matter is fully investigated, and to work with the Department of Justice to prosecute those responsible for any crimes.

Noncitizens on State Voter Rolls – According to a D.H.S. review of state voter rolls and public records, they identified approximately 278,000 non-citizens who are registered to vote in federal elections. Since Democrat states refused to share their voter files, the real number is actually much higher—yet even this limited analysis found more than a quarter of a million foreigners illegally registered to vote.

During an interview with CNN, he praised the animal for not killing him. “When I was on the ground immobile, unable to move, he was right on top of me. He could have stomped on me, he could have gored me, he could have done almost anything to take my life, and he did not do so.”

FEMINISM: “No woman should be authorized to stay at home and raise her children. Society should be totally different. Women should not have that choice, precisely because if there is such a choice, too many women will make that one.” ~Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986), French feminist

IRAN: Israel says Iran violated the cease fire on Sunday, launching missiles that the Israeli defense system intercepted. The attack came hours after Trump said in an interview on “Meet the Press” that the United States was “very close” to securing a deal with Iranian officials.

MEDIA: In 2025, Bari Weiss took over CBS News with the goal of making it less biased. After she fired 60 Minutes host, Scott Pelley, he said Weiss had actually asked the staff why the public didn’t trust the media any more, whining, “Why do you think so? Do you have a poll? Is there market research? What are you talking about? Because we certainly didn’t believe that.”

CLICK the link below to see multiple clips of the interview.

PATRIOTISM: @BuzzPatterson posted – When I was the Air Force Military Aide to Bill Clinton (and again, that was not a political appointee position, it was a military assignment), I served daily with very young staffers who were appointed because of their efforts in the campaign or who their parents were.

I really enjoyed interacting with most of them. Bright kids from Ivy League school. But their naïveté and lack of experience showed. Dramatically.

One day I was walking across the White House “campus,” the “18 acres,” and I encountered one of the young female staffers. We chatted for a bit, and she asked me, “So, why did you join the military? Were your career options limited or were you forced to by a judge?”

I wanted to throat punch her, but I said, “No, ma’am, I volunteered.”

She asked, “But why? Lack of education? No other options?”

No, ma’am, I volunteered. Really. Not only do I have a Bachelor’s but also an MBA.”

She asked again, “Then why?”

I shook my head and walked away. They simply can’t understand a higher calling. They are incapable of understanding that another human who would selflessly serve.

Therein lies much of the Democrat vs. military disconnect. They’re missing the patriotism chip.

WHCD Shooting

Cole Allen’s full anti-Trump manifesto with graphics added by CtH.

Hello everybody!

So I may have given a lot of people a surprise today. Let me start off by apologizing to everyone whose trust I abused.

I apologize to my parents for saying I had an interview without specifying it was for “Most Wanted.”

I apologize to my colleagues and students for saying I had a personal emergency (by the time anyone reads this, I probably most certainly DO need to go to the ER, but can hardly call that not a self-inflicted status.)

I apologize to all of the people I traveled next to, all the workers who handled my luggage, and all the other non-targeted people at the hotel who I put in danger simply by being near.

I apologize to everyone who was abused and/or murdered before this, to all those who suffered before I was able to attempt this, to all who may still suffer after, regardless of my success or failure.

I don’t expect forgiveness, but if I could have seen any other way to get this close, I would have taken it. Again, my sincere apologies.

On to why I did any of this:

I am a citizen of the United States of America.

What my representatives do reflects on me.

And I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.

(Well, to be completely honest, I was no longer willing a long time ago, but this is the first real opportunity I’ve had to do something about it.)

While I’m discussing this, I’ll also go over my expected rules of engagement (probably in a terrible format, but I’m not military so too bad.)

Secret Service: they are targets only if necessary, and to be incapacitated non-lethally if possible (aka, I hope they’re wearing body armor because center mass with shotguns messes up people who *aren’t*

Hotel Security: not targets if at all possible (aka unless they shoot at me)

Capitol Police: same as Hotel Security

National Guard: same as Hotel Security

Hotel Employees: not targets at all

Guests: not targets at all

In order to minimize casualties I will also be using buckshot rather than slugs (less penetration through walls)

I would still go through most everyone here to get to the targets if it were absolutely necessary (on the basis that most people *chose* to attend a speech by a pedophile, rapist, and traitor, and are thus complicit) but I really hope it doesn’t come to that.

Rebuttals to objections:

Objection 1: As a Christian, you should turn the other cheek.

Rebuttal: Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed. I’m not the person raped in a detention camp. I’m not the fisherman executed without trial. I’m not a schoolkid blown up or a child starved or a teenage girl abused by the many criminals in this administration.

Turning the other cheek when *someone else* is oppressed is not Christian behavior; it is complicity in the oppressor’s crimes.

Objection 2: This is not a convenient time for you to do this.

Rebuttal: I need whoever thinks this way to take a couple minutes and realize that the world isn’t about them. Do you think that when I see someone raped or murdered or abused, I should walk on by because it would be “inconvenient” for people who aren’t the victim?

This was the best timing and chance of success I could come up with.

Objection 3: You didn’t get them all.

Rebuttal: Gotta start somewhere.

Objection 4: As a half-black, half-white person, you shouldn’t be the one doing this.

Rebuttal: I don’t see anyone else picking up the slack

Objection 5: Yield unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.

Rebuttal: The United States of America are ruled by the law, not by any one or several people. In so far as representatives and judges do not follow the law, no one is required to yield them anything so unlawfully ordered.

I would also like to extend my appreciation to a great many people since I will not be likely to be able to talk with them again (unless the Secret Service is *astoundingly* incompetent.)

Thank you to my family, both personal and church, for your love over these 31 years.

Thank you to my friends, for your companionship over many years.

Thank you to my colleagues over many jobs, for your positivity and professionalism.

Thank you to my students for your enthusiasm and love of learning.

Thank you to the many acquaintances I’ve met, in person and online, for short interactions and long-term relationships, for your perspectives and inspiration.

Thank you all for everything.

Sincerely,

Cole “coldForce” “Friendly Federal Assassin” Allen

PS: Ok now that all the sappy stuff is done, what the hell is the Secret Service doing? Sorry, gonna rant a bit here and drop the formal tone.

Like, I expected security cameras at every bend, bugged hotel rooms, armed agents every 10 feet, metal detectors out the wazoo.

What I got (who knows, maybe they’re pranking me!) is nothing.

No damn security.

Not in transport.

Not in the hotel.

Not in the event.

Like, the one thing that I immediately noticed walking into the hotel is the sense of arrogance.

I walk in with multiple weapons and not a single person there considers the possibility that I could be a threat.

The security at the event is all outside, focused on protestors and current arrivals, because apparently no one thought about what happens if someone checks in the day before.

Like, this level of incompetence is insane, and I very sincerely hope it’s corrected by the time this country gets actually competent leadership again.

Like, if I was an Iranian agent, instead of an American citizen, I could have brought a damn Ma Deuce in here and no one would have noticed s–t.

Actually insane.

Oh and if anyone is curious is how doing something like feels: it’s awful. I want to throw up; I want to cry for all the things I wanted to do and never will, for all the people whose trust this betrays; I experience rage thinking about everything this administration has done.

Can’t really recommend it! Stay in school, kids.

There’s been some nonsense talk about how Trump supposedly has the “lowest approval rating in history” and that the WHCD shooting was staged to improve those numbers. You can look at the historical approval records yourself; there’s no paywall.

On April 21, 2026, House minority leader and leader of the House Democratic Caucus, Hakeem Jeffries, posted to social media, “Democrats defeated Donald Trump’s gerrymandering scheme in Virginia tonight. We will crush the DeSantis Dummymander in Florida next. Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time.

On April 26, 2026, the day after the WHCD shooting, Jeffries posted to social media, “America will not be lectured about civility by far right extremists in Congress. Particularly those who provide aid and comfort to hundreds of violent rioters who brutally beat police officers on January 6. There will be ample time to vigorously debate the issues of the day. Now is a time to unify.”

  • On Apr 7, 2026, Rep. Jamie Raskin called a Trump speech a “rambling and hate-filled diatribe” and urged Congress to invoke the 25th Amendment to get rid of him.
  • On Feb. 25, 2026, he called Trump “the most corrupt president in American history.”
  • In 2024, he called Trump a “career criminal” and “incorrigible recidivist con man” with a legacy of “American carnage” that nearly toppled the constitutional order.
