I don't think they ever figured out who the mole was in Trump's administration, but that mole had uncanny inside knowledge and seemed to be invisible.
I can see it being this guy now.
I met him about 12-15 years ago at a Republican gathering. I got to visit with him and then listen to him speak. This guy fooled me. I thought he was the real deal, and I bought into him as a potential POTUS. I've met other national political guys like this, and spent time with them, and I saw through them, but this one had me snookered.

It has been rumored back in the last year of Trump's first term that Pence was the trojan horse in the WH; he reportedly "advised" Trump on all sorts of bad shit, including cabinet choices and the whole Covid thing- Pence was in charge. And he was the only one who did not get any criticism in Bolton's book.

NOT surprised, Pence was absolutely instrumental in getting Mike Flynn fired.

Trump Just Had a Phone Call With Putin – Here's What's Happening Next
President Donald Trump on Thursday had a telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Trump, in a post on Truth Social, said the conversation was “very productive” and said Putin congratulated him on brokering a peace deal between Israel and Hamas. “I actually believe that the Success in the Middle East will help in our negotiation in attaining an end to the War with Russia/Ukraine,” Trump wrote.
The two leaders “spent a great deal of time talking about Trade between Russia and the United States when the War with Ukraine is over,” according to Trump.
The president explained that he and Putin “agreed that there will be a meeting of our High Level Advisors, next week.”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio will lead a delegation to engage in negotiations with Russia at a location that will be determined later. “President Putin and I will then meet in an agreed upon location, Budapest, Hungary, to see if we can bring this ‘inglorious’ War, between Russia and Ukraine, to an end,” Trump wrote. “[Ukrainian] President [Volodymyr] Zelenskyy and I will be meeting tomorrow, in the Oval Office, where we will discuss my conversation with President Putin, and much more. I believe great progress was made with today’s telephone conversation.”
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt during an appearance on Fox News, characterized the conversation as “productive” as well.
This development could signal a shift toward multilateral negotiations between the three countries. After nearly four years of fighting, the war in Ukraine has remained static. Russian forces continue to occupy territory in Eastern Ukraine. The US and European nations have backed Ukraine with military aid and financial assistance.
Trump and Putin met earlier this year in Alaska to kickstart the negotiation process. However, progress has been stalled since the gathering took place.
The meeting in Budapest could set the stage for Ukraine and Russia reaching a peace agreement. Perhaps Trump can build on the momentum he gained from the Israel-Hamas deal.
Of course, if the Budapest meeting happens, we can expect the same outpouring of criticism from the left that occurred when Trump sat down with Putin in Alaska. Folks on the left were highly enraged that Trump was trying to end a war — just as with the situation in Gaza.

US Will ‘Go in and Kill’ Hamas If It Doesn’t Stop Violence in Gaza: Trump
The president did not say if that would require direct U.S. military involvement in the Gaza Strip.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Oct. 16 that if the Hamas terrorist group doesn’t stop killing people in the Gaza Strip, then the United States would have no other choice but to “go in and kill them.”
The remark comes nearly one week after a cease-fire was implemented between Israel and Hamas, and just two days after Trump had assured reporters during his meeting with Argentinian President Javier Milei that Hamas would lay down its arms. At the time, Trump warned that if Hamas didn’t, the United States would disarm the terrorist group directly. “We will disarm them,” Trump said on Oct. 14 when asked by a reporter how he would guarantee that Hamas would disarm. “They know I’m not playing games.”
On Thursday, six days into the cease-fire, and as Israel and the United States are working on recovering all hostages’ bodies from the war-torn enclave, Trump stepped up his warning to Hamas amid reports of violence and shootings in the Gaza Strip.
“If Hamas continues to kill people in Gaza, which was not the Deal, we will have no choice but to go in and kill them,” the president wrote on social media. It’s not clear whether Trump was referring to direct U.S. military involvement in the Gaza Strip or coordination with the Israeli military.
The White House did not respond to a request for comment by publication time.
During a press conference at the White House on Thursday afternoon, Trump said “somebody” would go into the Gaza Strip to disarm Hamas, but “it’s not going to be us.”
“We won’t have to,” Trump said. “There are people very close, very nearby, that will go in. They’ll do the trick very easily. But under our auspices.”
On Wednesday, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM)—the U.S. military’s Middle East command—urged Hamas to cease violence against civilians in Gaza and disarm “without delay.”
“We strongly urge Hamas to immediately suspend violence and shooting at innocent Palestinian civilians in Gaza,” Commander Brad Cooper, head of CENTCOM, said in a statement. “We have conveyed our concerns to the mediators who agreed to work with us to enforce the peace and protect innocent Gaza civilians.”
When asked about that statement hours later during a press conference with FBI Director Kash Patel, Trump suggested Hamas could be disarmed without direct U.S. military intervention.
“We won’t need the U.S. military. We won’t need it because we’re very much involved in it. If we weren’t involved, there wouldn’t be peace,” the president said.
Trump reiterated that he saw no reason for getting the U.S. military involved in the Gaza Strip.
“I don’t see that. No, I think we’re going to handle it very well. We'll be helping Israel,” he said.
“Hamas has no support. See, Hamas had the support of Iran. And now Iran says, ‘Don’t get us involved.’ The last time they got them involved didn’t work out too well. So they used to have the support of Iran. Today, Iran is—they’re trying to survive.”
By Wednesday, Hamas had released the remaining 20 living hostages it took on Oct. 7, 2023. Israel and the United States are currently working on recovering the remains of the hostages who died in captivity.
Israel said it had received six bodies from Hamas, but that one did not match any of the hostages. Three who were identified on Wednesday were those of Staff Sgt. Tamir Nimrodi, Uriel Baruch, and Eitan Levy, according to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office. Nimrodi was kidnapped alive and killed while in captivity at age 18, while Baruch and Levy were killed during the Oct. 7, 2023, attack, and their bodies were taken to the Gaza Strip, the Israel Defense Forces said.

Trump Announces Meeting with Putin in Budapest After Phone Call Between Leaders
President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he and Russian President Vladimir Putin have agreed to meet in Budapest on an unspecified date following a meeting between their top advisers next week.
Trump took to Truth Social shortly after 1:00 p.m. ET to share details of “a very productive” and lengthy phone call he had with Putin as his effort to end the Russia-Ukraine war continues on the heels of striking a generational peace deal in the Middle East.
“At the conclusion of the call, we agreed that there will be a meeting of our High Level Advisors, next week. The United States’ initial meetings will be led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, together with various other people, to be designated. A meeting location is to be determined, ” Trump wrote
“President Putin and I will then meet in an agreed upon location, Budapest, Hungary, to see if we can bring this ‘inglorious’ War, between Russia and Ukraine, to an end,” he added.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is visiting the White House on Friday.
Trump said he and Putin spoke about the economic possibilities between Russia and the United States when the war is brought to a close.
“President Putin thanked the First Lady, Melania, for her involvement with children. He was very appreciative, and said that this will continue,” Trump wrote. “We also spent a great deal of time talking about Trade between Russia and the United States when the War with Ukraine is over.”
Trump noted that he and Putin also discussed Trump’s monumental success in getting Hamas to enter into the first phase of a peace deal, which included their release of living hostages and some deceased hostages’ remains earlier this week, while efforts are ongoing to recover the remaining deceased hostages.
“President Putin congratulated me and the United States on the Great Accomplishment of Peace in the Middle East, something that, he said, has been dreamed of for centuries,” Trump shared. “I actually believe that the Success in the Middle East will help in our negotiation in attaining an end to the War with Russia/Ukraine.”
The call between Trump and Putin comes as Trump has pressured Indian President Narendra Modi to stop buying Russian oil.
“I believe great progress was made with today’s telephone conversation,” Trump wrote at the conclusion of his post.
What the f*ck is Welch talking about? JD not defending his wife and kids?? I don't want to listen to any more, but I would like to know what incident she's referring to. Is the trying to goad JD into saying something that can be used against him? That's my guess without knowing more.

Mexico starts mass deportations on their millions of illegal criminal foreign invaders.
Why?
Mexico.gov says they are not going to foot the bill for caring for these illegal criminal foreign invaders.
Now, when we can do the same here?

Mex-ee-co has plenty of leftists. Look at their president. 100% installed by neo-communists and cartel influence. They are hypocrites.
They look reasonable on this issue because our leftists are just that much more malicious, crazy and retarded. It's kind of shocking.

Why do you think they are even doing that? It's BECAUSE we are deporting them all back to Mexico and now Mexico doesn't want any part of it. Oh they were happy to let them all into our country of course.

Yep, and Mexico allowed them to trek through their shit-hole country for miles and MILES to get to ours, and even assisted them along the way to make sure that they ‘made it’ safely.
