FOREVER WAR: Ukraine Conflict Could Now Last DECADES, According to Biden Govt Insiders.

Joe Biden’s government is now planning for the Ukraine conflict to last years – “perhaps decades” – with no clear victor, according to insider claims.

POLITICO – a German-owned outlet the “intelligence community” often uses to plant information – spoke to a number of current and former officials “granted anonymity to describe sensitive issues” who believe Ukraine could become a frozen conflict.

“We are planning for the long term, whether it looks frozen or thawed,” said a source the report described as a “U.S. official familiar with the Biden administration’s discussions on Ukraine.”

The new claims echo a warning made by National Pulse editor Raheem Kassam on Steve Bannon’s War Room in December 2021. Kassam said at the time: “If Americans thought Afghanistan was a debacle and took decades, and trillions of dollars, then let me tell you this as a matter of fact: if you get into a hot war with Russia over Ukraine, you will be there for 50 years, and tens of trillions of dollars. This is no small altercation you’re talking about, and not a short altercation you’re talking about.”

POLITICO reports a “growing sense within the [Biden] administration that an upcoming Ukrainian counteroffensive won’t deal a mortal blow to Russia” – meaning American taxpayers could be on the hook virtually in perpetuity as the Ukraine conflict drags on and potentially “freezes” like the Korean War, which is technically ongoing despite a ceasefire in the 1950s.

“A Korea-style stoppage is certainly something that’s been discussed by experts and analysts in and out of government,” revealed a source described as a former Biden administration official.

“It’s plausible, because neither side would need to recognize any new borders and the only thing that would have to be agreed is to stop shooting along a set line.”

Forever War.

“There’s a school of thought that says, ‘Oh, the Ukrainians have to have [the city of] Mariupol and Azov Sea access.’ There’s others less hung up about the placement of the lines as long as Ukraine is secure going into the future,” said a former official “describing the internal conversations” within the Biden government.

This represents a marked climbdown from its early win conditions for the war, which involved the Ukrainians not just defeating Russia’s general invasion, but driving them from the Crimean peninsula and parts of the Donbas controlled by Russia-aligned separatists since 2014.

This does not mean American taxpayers can look forward to a time when a truce is declared and they are no longer shaken down for military aid and financial assistance, however. “Biden aides” are reportedly discussing “long-term security guarantees for Ukraine,” according to a “former U.S. intelligence official who handled Russia-related matters”.

The costs involved may prove to be considerable, with America’s continuing entanglement with Korea costing billions of dollars every year.

13.7 Million Illegals So Far Under Biden, Proving Trump’s Predictions Right.

New data shows that the number of illegal aliens in the United States has risen to 13.7 million under President Joe Biden, marking an increase of 37 percent. In addition, the total foreign-born population in the U.S. was an estimated 51.4 million in February 2024, a new record high. The number of foreign-born individuals in the country has increased by 6.4 million since Biden took office in January 2021.

In October, President Trump told The National Pulse exclusively that he believed Biden would preside over the importation of upwards of 15 million illegals. The new data shows Trump is likely to end up almost exactly correct by the end of the Biden term.

An average of 172,000 legal and illegal immigrants arrived in the U.S. each month under President Biden. However, the data — from the Center for Immigrant Studies (CIS) and based on the Census Bureau’s Current Population Survey (CPS) — may not fully account for the number of illegal aliens in the country.

The National Pulse previously reported that a retired immigration judge uncovered evidence that the Biden government has released over 100,000 illegals into the U.S. each month. This suggests the Census Bureau’s survey may be drastically undercounting the number of illegal aliens entering the country.

A bulk of the immigrant arrivals into the U.S. under Biden have come from Latin America — although other data suggests that  African, Middle Eastern, and Asian illegal aliens are beginning to comprise greater shares of those encountered by border agents. Additionally, among the 6.4 million who’ve entered the U.S. in the past three years, 44 percent lack having attained an education level beyond high school.

Immigrants now comprise 15.5 percent of the U.S. population. Last year, the Census Bureau released an estimate stating the U.S. wouldn’t hit that number until 2040. Under former President Donald Trump, just 42,000 immigrants were entering the U.S. each month — with the number trending on a decline prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Obama government saw 76,000 immigrants entering the country monthly.

Jan 6 Defendant Released.

January 6 defendant Kevin Seefried of Laurel, Delaware, has been granted early release from prison after the Supreme Court agreed to take up a relevant appeal.

Seefried was handed a three-year prison term for “obstruction of an official proceeding,” with additional periods of one year and six months on misdemeanor charges.

The obstruction charge is at the center of the Supreme-Court-approved case Fischer v. United States, which questions the novel way Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has used it to prosecute many Jan 6 protestors.

While the DOJ argues the disruption of the 2020 election’s certification caused by protestors amounted to obstruction of an official proceeding, the relevant laws were passed in the wake of the Enron scandal. They were not intended to target protestors, but people who doctored and destroyed documents to sabotage an investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Should Fischer succeed in the Supreme Court, a large number of protestors tried on obstruction of an official proceeding charges could be freed. Moreover, “conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding” and “obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding” are among the charges special prosecutor Jack Smith has leveled at Donald Trump, and Fischer‘s success could cut the case against the former president “in half.”

Years on from 2021, Jan 6 prosecutions are accelerating rather than decelerating. Prosecutors are targeting protestors for increasingly minor offenses, including MAGA influencer Isabella DeLuca, whose alleged crime is touching a table that was later passed out of a broken window.

Finally, A Win for Election Integrity!

Republicans won a major battle over election integrity in Pennsylvania yesterday, as three Democrat judges voted in favor of signature verification for mail-in voting.

The details: The U.S. 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, which is made up of three Democrat-appointed judges, ruled 2-1 to overturn a lower court’s previous ruling that said the state could not enforce a “dated signature requirement” for mail-in ballots.

Back up: In November 2022, the RNC sued to ensure signature verification, and the state Supreme Court ruled in their favor. But this past November, a federal court struck down that ruling, leading to this most recent appeal and judgment…

The 3rd Circuit declared: “The Pennsylvania General Assembly has decided that mail-in voters must date the declaration on the return envelope of their ballot to make their vote effective… thus, failure to comply renders a ballot invalid under Pennsylvania law.”

Big picture: In 2020, Pennsylvania saw 2,637,065 votes cast by mail-in ballot. And according to the official tally, Joe Biden won by roughly 80,000 votes.

  • Translation: Even the slightest amount of mail-in voter fraud could have been the deciding factor in that race.

Pennsylvania is critical. If it’s going to allow vote-by-mail, then having signature verification is a major step toward ensuring the upcoming election is secure.

DATA: Trump Ally Alex Bruesewitz Opens 20-Point Lead In Wisconsin Primary.

Early polling of the election to replace retiring Representative Mike Gallagher (R-WI) shows Alex Bruesewitza staunch ally of former President Donald Trump — holding a commanding lead. Bruesewitz comes in at 36 percent, with State Sen. André Jacque at 15 percent, and Roger Roth — rumored to be backed by Gallagher — at 12 percent among Republican primary voters. An additional 36 percent of Wisconsin Republicans remained undecided.

The poll — conducted by the former Vivek Ramaswamy campaign pollster, Cygnal — indicates 64 percent of Republican primary voters in the district would prefer a candidate who wasn’t a career politician. This sentiment could favor Bruesewitz, who hasn’t held elected office before. Meanwhile, both Jacque and Roth have had long tenures as elected officials.

During his 2022 run for Lt. Governor, Roth — the son of former nine-term Congressman Toby Roth (R-WI) — declined to endorse former President Trump’s running again in 2024. Roth implied that if the former President ran, he’d divide the Republican Party and face stiff primary competition.

Gallagher announced he would retire early last week. According to the Wisconsin Republican, his retirement will take effect on April 19 — placing it too close to the general election for a special election to be held. The seat will remain empty then until November.

Responding to Gallagher’s underhanded decision to prevent a special election, Bruesewitz posted on X (formerly Twitter): “If Mike Gallagher doesn’t do the right thing and resign by April 2nd, the people of Wisconsin hope [Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene] introduces a resolution to EXPEL him from Congress!”

Several of Gallagher’s House Republican colleagues have floated the idea of moving to expel him from Congress before mid-April so that a special election can still be held.

Here’s How Mass Migration is Threatening America’s Food Security.

Animal health experts are warning that mass illegal immigration is threatening the United States’ food supply. Since 2021, authorities recorded an estimated nine million encounters with undocumented immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border. These illegal aliens are rarely subject to any meaningful health checks and carry with them a variety of diseases.

“These people are just destroying our country. And our food supply is going to be a real critical issue,” Dr. Michael Vickers, a veterinarian who served on the Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC), told The Epoch Times.

Vickers highlighted the fact that thousands of cattle in Texas were slaughtered after being infected with drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB). The source of these infections was the illegal aliens who worked at the affected dairies. Vickers noted that “people from Central America and beyond” milk “[m]ost of the dairy herds in the United States.”

In two cases, a combined 23,000 cattle were infected with TB. Investigators discovered that the TB strains were human and originated outside of the U.S. Twelve illegal aliens working with the herds were infected with TB, Vickers said.

Vickers also expressed concerns that the ongoing border crisis risks a severe New World screwworm epidemic. New World screwworm cases are surging in Central America, and last year, the USDA had to provide emergency funding to foreign farmers to combat outbreaks.

While the threat the ongoing border crisis poses to Americans is often evident, few realize how dangerous unfettered migration is to the U.S. food supply. Biden’s ‘newcomers‘ strain public resources, commit crime, and carry disease. Now those diseases risk destroying the country’s food supply.

Impeachment Articles Against DHS Sec Mayorkas Will Be Sent to Senate on April 10.

House Speaker Mike Johnson has formally notified Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) that he will transmit the articles of impeachment for Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on April 10. The House Speaker encouraged the Democrat Senate leader to promptly hold a trial for Mayorkas, whom the House of Representatives impeached in mid-February.

“We call upon you to fulfill your constitutional obligation to hold this trial. The American people demand a secure border, an end to this crisis, and accountability fwilor those responsible,” Johnson’s letter concludes. “To table articles of impeachment without ever hearing a single argument or reviewing a piece of evidence would be a violation of our constitutional order and an affront to the American people whom we all serve.”

Several other House Republicans signed the letter, including Reps. Mark Green (R-TN), Michael McCaul (R-TX), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Clay Higgins (R-LA), and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA). The signers represent various factions within the House Republican Caucus, underscoring that its members remain unified in their push to remove Mayorkas from office for his dereliction of duty in allowing the border invasion to continue unabated.

Senate Democrats have signaled they may table the impeachment articles without a final up-or-down vote. The move, Sen. Schumer appears to believe, would help protect several vulnerable Democrat Senators who are up for re-election this November, including Sens. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Jon Tester (D-MT), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), and Bob Casey (D-PA). Immigration and the ongoing border crisis have become a top campaign issue this election cycle.

Epstein Island Visitor Data Exposed.

Data broker Near Intelligence has allegedly gathered detailed coordinates of nearly 200 mobile devices belonging to visitors to Little St. James, sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s private Caribbean island. The data, uncovered by WIRED, reveals the visitors’ respective residences and places of work, shedding light on the possible identities of high-profile figures undeterred by Epstein’s criminal status. Many of these visitors traveled to the Island well after allegations against Epstein emerged. The data was collected from July 2016 until July 6, 2019 — the day of Epstein’s arrest.

TRACKING EPSTEIN’S FRIENDS.

The data collected is apparently so precise that Near Intelligence could pinpoint individuals’ locations within centimeters. For example, the data broker was able to track visitors’ movements from the Ritz-Carlton on St. Thomas to a specific dock at the American Yacht Harbor, which then ferried them to Little St. James. While the visitors have not yet been named, the data obtained by Near Intelligence offers clues. Over 11,000 coordinates harvested point to 166 locations throughout the U.S. where Epstein’s guests lived and worked, as well as in Australia and the Cayman Islands.

Near Intelligence identified devices traveling to Little St. James from U.S. locations in 80 cities across 26 states. The top states of origin of Epstein’s guests were Florida, Massachusetts, Texas, Michigan, and New York. The data broker identified mansions in gated communities in Michigan and Florida, homes in Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket, and even a nightclub in Miami.

TRACKING EPSTEIN’S VICTIMS.

The data also points to the routes taken by Epstein’s victims. Coordinates identified other properties belonging to Epstein, including his 8,000-acre ranch in New Mexico and a mansion in Palm Beach, Florida — both of which were identified by prosecutors as locations from where Epstein trafficked minors for abuse.

Near Intelligence’s report on visitors’ movements to Epstein’s island included five maps. One revealed locations of devices present on the island more than three years before Epstein’s arrest. Two maps identified “Common Evening Locations” and “Common Daytime Locations” for each visitor, respectively. A fourth map displays the “general geographic areas from which a location generates the majority of its visits,” while the fifth map shows visitors’ locations 30 minutes before and after arriving on Little St. James.

WIRED CONCEALING IDENTITIES.

While it appears that the data accessed by WIRED would enable the publication to identify the influential individuals who frequented Epstein’s Island, they have so far refused to do so.

“For this story, we reproduced some of the maps created by Near, while excluding any precise location data that could be used to identify properties or individuals, to protect the privacy of anyone uninvolved in Epstein’s crimes,” the publication said.

‘Bidenomics’ is Dead.

Joe Biden and his fellow Democrats have abandoned the term “Bidenomics” as Americans reject their economic message, and Republicans have turned the term into a pejorative.

The numbers: According to an analysis by Axios, here’s how often Biden mentioned the term “Bidenomics” during public appearances:

  • 100 times between June and Dec 2023;
  • 3 times in 2024.

Most notably, Biden didn’t mention the term once during his State of the Union this month.

Trickle-down Bidenomics: Joe’s fellow Democrats have also abandoned the term. For instance, in July 2023, Congressional Democrats used the term 483 times in addresses and on social media. In March? Ten times.

Weaponizing Bidenomics: Axios points out that “Republicans are now using the term — mockingly — far more than Democrats.” For an example, look no further than the ‘First Word’ in yesterday’s newsletter.

Big picture: The real reason Democrats abandoned the term is they couldn’t sell it to the American people who are suffering from the effects of Bidenflation, which is up roughly 20 percent since Joe took office.

  • A recent Fox News poll found that 61 percent of Americans disapprove of Biden’s handling of the economy, vs 38 percent who approve.

SURPRISE! – Judge Who Wants Trump Attorney Disbarred is Massive Democrat Donor.

Conservative attorney John Eastman faces potential disbarment and a substantial financial penalty following a recommendation by California judge Yvette Roland. But Roland is a massive Democrat Party donor, calling her judgment into question when making such a recommendation. Roland has specifically donated thousands of dollars to Barack Obama, Gavin Newsom, and Democrat fundraising operation ActBlue, The National Pulse can reveal.

Her recommended sanctions against Eastment include a $10,000 fine. Eastman’s supposed offense was spearheading a novel legal theory to contest the results of the 2020 Presidential Election. The sanctions and disbarment recommendation are now subject to review by the California Supreme Court.

In an interview on War Room with Stephen K. Bannon, Eastman said he faces disbarment in just three days unless an appellate court intervenes and issues a stay while he pursues an appeal. Eastman described the California judge’s ruling: “It’s 128 pages… and almost every page has at least one blatant lie on it.”

“We’re going to be challenging this vigorously all the way up through the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary,” he added.

If the disbarment recommendation proceeds and is successful, Eastman, a highly regarded constitutional scholar, will lose his ability to practice law in California. The proceeding took place over 32 nonconsecutive days and stretched over ten weeks. Eastman told Bannon that at least one commenter speculated it may have been the most protracted and expensive bar disciplinary hearing in history.

The constitutional scholar explained to Bannon the numerous instances where the judge presiding over his California Bar hearing had ruled to exclude exculpatory evidence — including legal briefs from at least six state attorneys general who had agreed with his assessment against certifying the 2020 presidential election after allegations of fraud.

“She said that their briefs were not relevant, even though they did exactly the same thing I did, which demonstrated that reasonable attorneys were taking these actions,” Eastman said.

“This is Orwellian, it is authoritarian,” he said, responding to the judge’s process and ruling. “The government has spoken, and you better bow to our claims, or we’re going to destroy you.”

Matt Schlapp’s Crotch-Grabbing Legal Woes May Not Be Over After All…

Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) organizer Matt Schlapp, who originally claimed to be “cleared” of a sexual assault allegation against campaign staffer Carlton Huffman, may be back in legal hot water, with his accuser now allegedly disputing his description of the settlement between them.

Schlapp, who chairs the American Conservative Union (ACU), appeared to claim vindication when comments from Huffman appeared in the press, stating the “claims made in my lawsuits were the result of a complete misunderstanding, and I regret that the lawsuit caused pain to the Schlapp family.”

“Neither the Schlapps nor the ACU paid me anything to dismiss my claims against them,” the statement said, raising questions about the specificity of the wording. Shortly after, it emerged Huffman was paid a $480,000 settlement by ACU’s insurer. Reports also suggest he doesn’t stand by the comments made in his name, which were provided to the media by the Schlapp team, with Huffman insisting he never agreed to them.

Sources say “verbiage in [Huffman’s] statement was not what Huffman had agreed to as part of the settlement,” and Huffman’s counsel has “notified Schlapp’s legal team that some of Schlapp’s personal statements and social media posts celebrating the lawsuit’s resolution appeared to be in breach of the agreement’s non-disparagement clause.”

Schlapp has already removed social media posts suggesting he had been “cleared” and that Huffman had “apologized.” Huffman has not recanted his original claims about Schlapp, a 56-year-old father-of-five, who is alleged to have sexually “pummelled” the younger man’s crotch during a car ride.
