    HOLY SMOKES. Donald Trump at the UN just demanded the IMMEDIATE resignation of globalist International Criminal Court (ICC) members

    Then he CALLED OUT the globalists for ignoring the persecution of Christians

     I VOTED FOR THIS.

    “I mean, Christians are being persecuted all over the world. It’s not even believable. I never thought I’d say it, but it’s been happening for a long time. So this is persecution of Christians who are the crimes of the world’s most repressive regimes. Yet, they want America to open up our borders to gangs and criminals from world’s most dangerous places.”

    “I call on all nations that are members of the ICC to officially resign from this rogue institution immediately.”

    “We will NEVER allow U.S. service members or anyone else to be investigated or given show trials by an anti-American tribunal with no jurisdiction over us, or an evil group of people.”

    “It is equally unacceptable that with all the genuine atrocities in the world, the UN’s top human rights officials spend their time criticizing the United States for protecting our children from transgender mutilization and transgender insanity and enforcing our immigration laws.”

    One of his best moments ever.

  2. Just The News: “Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rand Paul announced Tuesday that the committee will hold a business meeting to consider a resolution authorizing an application for a court order compelling testimony under immunity from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s former longtime special assistant.

    The business meeting will take place Wednesday and is part of the committee’s investigation into the origins of COVID-19 and risky life sciences research. The committee is required under federal law to seek a court order when two-thirds of its members approve the request. 

    The business meeting is scheduled to take place at 10 a.m. Eastern in the Dirksen Senate Office Building. It is the only business on the meeting’s agenda.”
