Shortly after the statement was made today that an NYC jury discovered President Trump guilty of 34 ludicrous charges, based upon an unjust case heard in a courtroom led by an unclean, far-left judge and prosecuted by a Soros-funded NYC DA, President Trump’s donor project site crashed from an extreme quantity of traffic.
In addition to daily Americans racing to assist money President Trump’s re-election project, a not likely donor likewise made a considerable contribution to President Trump’s 2024 project following the statement of the jury’s decision.
Only minutes after the 34 guilty charges were revealed, Sequoia Capitol Partner Shaun Maguire made a $300,000 contribution to Trump’s 2024 project.
According to the Sequoia Capitol site, Maguire has actually partnered with Elon Musk’s effective Boring Company because2020 Is it possible that Elon Musk assisted to “red-pill” Maguire?
” I simply contributed $300 k to President Trump. The timing isn’t a coincidence,” Maguire composed in a tweet:

In another tweet, Maguire consisted of a link that takes the reader to a thorough description for his choice to contribute $300,000 to President Trump following the NYC jury’s choice:
” I simply contributed $300 k to Trump. I’m ready to lose buddies. Here’s why.
Back in 2016, I had intoxicated the media Kool-Aid and was frightened out of my mind about Trump. I contributed to Hillary Clinton’s project and voted for her.
By 2020, I was disillusioned and didn’t vote– I didn’t like either alternative.
Now, in 2024, I think this is among the most crucial elections of my life time, and I’m supporting Trump.
I understand that I’ll lose pals for this. Some will decline to do service with me. The media will most likely demonize me, as they have many others before me. Regardless of this, I still think it’s the ideal thing to do.
I decline to reside in a society where individuals hesitate to speak.
The 2016 Election
I’m going to begin with something intriguing, however I believe it results in a various take on the most questionable Trump concern, which is certainly January 6th. Here goes absolutely nothing.
I think the 2016 election was controlled to injure Hilary Clinton and to assist Donald Trump.
Hillary Clinton herself thinks this; she has actually rejected the 2016 election result lots of times and still does to this day. Plot twist: I concur with her! Check out Guccifer 2.0, which was the “hacker group” that tactically dripped her e-mails (through Wikileaks) in a drip project at simply the best minutes. Ends up it was the Russian GRU. And keep in mind all those phony news and bot farms? These occurrences are the idea of the spear– a few of the openly recognized events. There was severe control occurring throughout the 2016 election.
Before case, please watch a minimum of 30 seconds of this video. It’s “24 straight minutes of Democrats rejecting election outcomes.”
Russia (and others) interfering in the 2016 election was absolutely nothing brand-new; this takes place in every election, all over on the planet. Certainly.
But for me, as somebody that utilized to operate in National Security, Russia’s implicit assistance for Trump made me deathly scared of him getting chosen as President.
I was incorrect, and Russia overestimated. President Trump ended up being a master of diplomacy and especially strong towards Russia. If you’ve never ever seen it previously, please watch this two-minute clip from Trump at a NATO breakfast 5 years earlier.
If you’re too lazy, Trump informed Germany that they’re a) owned by Russia through their energy reliance, b) funding Russia’s war device by purchasing their energy, c) not investing enough in defense, investing just 1% of GDP, which was listed below the 2% NATO dedication, on the other hand the United States was investing 4.2% of GDP. And yet the world stated he’s owned by Russia?
For other Trump diplomacy wins, he: a) signed the Abraham Accords, b) effectively put Iran in the charge box, which the Biden administration right away loosened up, and c) he assisted India see the risks of having their comms networks managed by China, leading to Huawei and TikTok prohibits there.
My “radicalization” towards the center
August 16 th, 2021 was the day I understood I might never ever support Joe Biden or any of the senior authorities in his administration. This was the day that Afghans was up to their deaths from United States C-17 aircrafts at the Kabul International Airport, or KAIA as ISAF forces described it.
Back in 2012, I released to Afghanistan, working for DARPA. I utilized to fly out of KAIA a minimum of weekly, normally taking a Blackhawk to Bagram Airfield (BAF), however often getting on a C-130 down to Kandahar (KAF).
I’m not going to enter into all of the information here, however this was individual for me– as it was for anybody that served in Afghanistan. The majority of have the incorrect impression of what took place there. Afghanistan wasn’t Iraq. And genuine development had actually been made. It took approximately 15 years to support the majority of Afghanistan, however the ISAF union had actually gotten it to the location that little women were going to school in Kabul, in some cases strolled there by their moms who weren’t even using Burkas any longer. All of this was unthinkable a years prior.
And then there’s the tactical element. The United States’s many tactical base in Afghanistan was Bagram Airfield. Unless you’ve existed it’s difficult to envision how tactical this base is, and how simple it is to protect. Nestled in a remote valley at the foothills of the Himalayas. Within a couple hour flight of China and Iran, and a couple of minute flight to Pakistan. I think this airfield might have been held for 50+ years with 50,000 males. A comparable scale to the United States irreversible forces stationed at Ramstein Air Base in Germany or the United States bases in Okinawa, Japan.
We quit among the most tactical air bases worldwide, and probably stability in Kabul, for political gain– to be able to state that President Biden ended the War in Afghanistan. And we did it in the most unskilled way possible, actually with individuals falling from our planes. Everybody I have actually talked to that served in Afghanistan understands this.
Global instability
It wasn’t simply Afghanistan, I think that the Biden administration has actually had a few of the worst diplomacy in years. And this has actually manifested in 2 significant Wars breaking out throughout their administration, with Russia’s intrusion of Ukraine and Iran’s proxy attack versus Israel.
Was the timing simply misfortune? I do not think so. I think that a weak America results in a disorderly world.
The stopped working Afghanistan pull-out revealed the weak point of the Biden administration. They stopped working to adjust to altering truths on the ground, mainly the Afghan army setting up no resistance as the Taliban drove towards Kabul. If the United States can’t adjust rapidly in a theater where we’re currently active, how can it respond rapidly to a blitz in a brand-new theater, Ukraine?
Granted the Russian’s bungled their blitz, overestimating the weather condition, probably to keep China pleased as they hosted the Olympics in Feb 2022.
The most destructive diplomacy has actually been the Biden administration’s method to Iran. Biden resuscitated Obama’s braindead Iran teaching. In some way thinking that the theocratic Islamic Regime might be turned towards the West.
But it’s much even worse than this. After Hamas’ attack versus Israel on October 7th, Iran took credit for preparing the attack openly. Iran was so vibrant that their proxies brought out over 300 attacks versus United States bases and Naval ships. A number of the attacks have not been revealed or advertised. A minimum of 4 United States soldiers have actually been eliminated in these attacks. And yet, in some way, regardless of this, the Biden administration has actually been satisfying Iran by thawing their funds, grieving the death of President Raisi, and hamstringing Israel in its proxy fight.
This level of weak point is unmatched in my viewpoint. The United States has actually been kissing the ring of its enemy, actually while attacks versus our Armed Forces are performed. If you begin looking, it’s difficult to see anything besides Iranian foreign impact in the Biden administration, such as what Semafor reported on, and which was efficiently buried by our mainstream media.
The Biden administration has actually been a dream become a reality for foreign enemies, and a problem for United States allies. Relying on of opponents, and unpredictable with buddies.
Israel
To anybody that follows me on X, you understand that I’m a strong Israel fan and likewise Zionist. I think that Israel is among America’s essential allies on the planet. In a post-Snowden world, Israel is now probably the world’s leading cyber power. And it’s a crucial intelligence ally for any United States operations in the Middle East. It’s likewise ending up being a sophisticated weapons partner, co-developing the hypersonic rocket defense system Arrow 3 and likewise Iron Dome + Iron Beam.
The Islamic Regime in Iran scares its own individuals and their proxies scare the whole area. Saudi Arabia has actually been updating at a remarkable rate. In some way the Biden administration has actually picked to snuggle as much as Iran while driving Saudi Arabia and Israel away. This is unforgivably dreadful policy in my viewpoint.
Double requirements
The next subject that has actually boiled my blood are the double requirements and lawfare that Trump has actually dealt with. Here are some examples:
Classified files: Hilary Clinton, Joe Biden, Mike Pence and Donald Trump were all captured with categorized files. Just Trump was prosecuted. Either it’s a criminal activity for all of them or none. All of the arguments about amount of files or blockage are interruptions to validate a double requirement.
The Border Wall: keep in mind how Trump was villainized for promoting a border wall? Biden resumed structure areas of it after pausing them, which the tradition media has actually been extremely peaceful about.
Election denialism: yes, Trump rejected the 2020 election results. As we connected to above, so did Hilary Clinton and Joe Biden concerning the 2016 results. As have numerous other political leaders considering that2000 Either they’re all election deniers, or none.
Corruption charges: every inch has actually been looked for Trump corruption while Joe Biden’s participation with foreign nations (through Hunter) have actually been swept under the carpet.
Here are some examples.
Three strikes for thee however not for me: Joe Biden was the designer of the 1994 Crime Bill, which most associate as the source of the mass imprisonment we saw over the next twenty years (particularly among black neighborhoods). Split drug, in specific, was dealt with roughly when integrated with the 1986 Anti-Drug Abuse Act. Enjoy this video. Hunter Biden would be secured for life if the exact same guidelines were used to him that Joe Biden troubled countless others.
This is simply the suggestion of the double-standard iceberg.
Lawfare
This is too broad of a subject to explain here, however are sufficient to state I’ve invested numerous hours following the trials and looking into the charges versus Trump. This has actually been another radicalizing experience. I comprehend that generally when there’s smoke, there’s fire, however in this case, I believe when there’s smoke, there’s lawfare.
To anybody with a curious mind, I urge you to go deep on any of the charges versus Trump, whether civil or criminal. Here’s a really fast summary of a few of the fishy elements:
Election Interference Case: Jack Smith was designated Special Counsel to prosecute Trump. Jack Smith formerly got the Governor of Virginia founded guilty of corruption charges … WHICH WERE THEN UNANIMOUSLY OVERTURNED BY THE SUPREME COURT. Essentially Jack Smith misguided the Jury. Why would you pick Jack Smith to be the Special Counsel for this case? Possibly if all you’re attempting to do is to get charges to stick before an election, even if you understand they’ll be reversed consequently by the Supreme Court?
The Classified Documents Case: when again Jack Smith is the Special Counsel.
Georgia Election Interference: The Fulton County DA, Fani Willis, has a history of corruption. It ends up that the outdoors legal representative she chose to prosecute Trump … is somebody she was having a romantic relationship with, Nathan Wade. Wade’s Law company made about $700 k after Willis selected him. This was hidden. Wade has actually given that resigned from the case however Willis is still included.
The Hush Money Case: The essential witness, Michael Cohen, is a tested phony. His testament has actually been filled with contradiction after contradiction.
Bank Fraud: Trump was purchased by Judge Engoron to pay over $350 M in civil judgment that he devoted bank scams. This entire case reeked of corruption. This was an event where no damage had actually been done: the banks had actually currently been totally paid back with interest. The most crucial point in the event was Judge Engoron arguing that Mar-a-Lago deserved just in between $18 M and $276 M when Trump had actually stated it’s worth in between $4265 M and $612 M. Judge Engoron attempted to compare apples to oranges, with an assessed worth vs market price for a home that is really plainly worth something near Trump’s variety.
Sexual Assault/ E Jean Carroll: the background to this case was practically astounding. In easy terms, a lady in 2019, E Jean Carroll, came out and stated that 20+ years prior, in the late 1990 s, Donald Trump had actually sexually attacked her. The statute of constraints on this case had actually ended more than a years prior to her claims. The state of New York did something unmatched and opened a one year window where individuals might submit claims for sexual abuse going back to precisely the window when E Jean Carroll implicated him. That’s point # 1, there was lawfare around the statute of constraints. Point # 2 is that the case was extremely irregular and eventually the Jury identified that Trump did not rape E Jean Carroll, in spite of her claims. They did figure out that he sexually attacked her (a lower charge than rape.)
All of these cases are too made complex for the majority of to follow, practically by style. As somebody that has actually been following the cases carefully, I’ve had the opposite response of what was meant: a) every case appears to have actually had impropriety, and b) after going through Trump’s whole life, if these are the worst things they can discover, then he did less incorrect then I otherwise would have presumed.
Fairness is among my assisting concepts in life and merely, these cases have not been reasonable for Trump.
Where do I disagree with Republicans?
The primary location is abortion. This is clearly a lightning arrester problem. As somebody with libertarian leaning views, I think the Republicans have the incorrect position around enforcing their views on others. That stated, I believe Democrats misconstrue the constitutional argument that this needs to be a states problem.
Domestic policies
Other than abortion, I think that President Trump and the Republicans have actually been much better on the majority of domestic concerns. Take a look at the lifestyle in Red States, such as Florida and Texas, vs. that in Blue States, like California, Oregon, and New York. I utilized to reside in San Francisco and now reside in Los Angeles. The criminal offense and homelessness runs out control.
Trump was villainized for his position on developing a border wall, however we’ve had about 10 M unlawful immigrants cross into the United States currently throughout President Biden’s period.
The Democrats have actually been attempting to control innovation– specifically open source AI and crypto in manner ins which incentivize the very best contractors to construct beyond America.
25 years ago I think the Far Right was significantly more unsafe than the Far Left. Today I think the Far Left, and particularly Antifa, is more unsafe. Our attention and upkeep was on the Far Right while we disregarded the Far Left.
The 2020 election and January 6th
Now, onto the elephant in the space: the 2020 election. The subject is so taboo that if you speak about it, you’re instantly cancelled. I’m prepared to wade into this fire– a few of us require to be ready to.
I think America has actually conflated 2 problems: the 2020 election itself and January 6th.
Just as Hilary Clinton and lots of other democrats declared the 2016 election was taken (which I concur with). I think there was a comparable scale, or perhaps more disturbance in the 2020 election. We require to be able to speak about this, so that we can repair the issues. Democracy does not work without safe elections. It likewise does not work without tranquil shifts of power. Both are vital.
I think there was severe election disturbance, however I do not think January 6th was the best reaction. Bear with me.
So what was going on throughout the 2020 election?
I held a Top Secret (TS/SCI) clearance for about 7 years and utilized to operate in details warfare, and likewise cybersecurity. I’ve seen nation-state strategies that the majority of can’t think of. It is from this lens, and through access to great deals of non-public details, through which I saw the election.
If you return to the 2020 election, probably the most advanced cyberattack in history was occurring. This was the SolarWinds supply chain attack. This attack was so advanced that it’s difficult to understand precisely what it was utilized for. And much of what we do understand has actually never ever been reported.
Washington has a fascinating phenomenon where when something exceptionally destructive is discovered, individuals usually clam up and decline to handle it. I’ve seen this direct several times now.
But we likewise have things like the Hunter Biden laptop computer scandal, which the FBI remained in ownership of for approximately a year before the election, and in spite of it being simple to confirm its credibility, the FBI was actively informing Facebook and Twitter that it is phony news and they advised prohibiting sharing of the NY Post post about it.
But there were many other problems. Not least of which was a worldwide pandemic that likely dripped from a Chinese laboratory, however we weren’t permitted to speak about that. Nor the mail-in tally problems.
Many indicate the 2020 election and state “there’s no smoking cigarettes weapon proof so for that reason, there was no disturbance!” My retort is that there’s not public proof and in basic the DoD/IC hesitates to press too far on the problem, understanding how harmful it would be to discover disturbance. There’s things I can’t state.
The end outcome is a 2020 election where Biden and Trump integrated gotten 155.5 M votes vs the 128.8 M integrated for Hilary and Trump in2016 That’s 26.7 M more votes in 2020 compared to2016 That’s a 20% boost in citizen turnout in a duration where the population just grew by a couple of percent. In an election where individuals weren’t motivated by either prospect. And where there was more voting friction than ever before due to COVID-19
Personally, I do not believe it’s reasonable for Hilary Clinton to be able to declare the 2016 election was taken, however Donald Trump to be arraigned for the exact same thing.
Regarding the January 6th demonstrations. I do not concur with them. Even if an election is taken, I believe the proper democratic action is to accept it, have tranquil shift of power, and after that to eliminate like hell on the backend to ensure it never ever takes place once again.
Regarding Trump’s participation in January 6th. The clearest thing he did was reject the election results, however once again, so did Hilary Clinton. If this isn’t a criminal offense in and of itself, then what else did he do?
The rest is fuzzy. There is contrasting statement, specifically around when the National Guard was asked for. On the one hand you had the testaments of General Charles Flynn and Lt. General Walter Piatt. On the other side you have the statements of Colonel Earl Mathews, Trump’s Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and The Head of the Capitol Police at the time, Steven Sund. The media reports on Trump’s January 6th participation in outright terms however once again, if you go deep, it’s uncertain. For me, if Trump in fact requested the National Guard to be all set to go throughout January 6th it’s a significant counterpoint versus the claims that he was prompting an insurrection.
Summary
In 2016 there were 2 main factors I chose Hilary (and was deathly scared of Trump)
# 1) Russia assisted him in the election by harming Hilary. This made me prone to the media story that he’s owned by Russia and will be a diplomacy catastrophe.
# 2) Candidly the clip where he stated “I get them by their pussy” deeply troubled me.
These 2 things constructed a pattern in my mind that Trump ran out control.
But now with the advantage of hindsight, reviewing these 2 points:
# 1) To my shock, I think Trump was among the very best diplomacy Presidents in years, and throughout the most intricate duration in practically a century, as the East increases, which results in an altering set of guidelines.
# 2) That clip still beings in the back of my mind, however I personally think about the double requirements and lawfare versus Trump to be 10 x even worse, and 10 x more harmful for our Democracy.
What’s next?
Do I concur with Trump on whatever? Naturally not. The location where I disagree with Republicans the most is on Women’s rights. And I’m sure I’ll disagree with a few of Trump’s policies in the future.
But in basic, I believe he was remarkably prescient, such as with the border wall, and he was likewise a skillful arbitrator, such as with the Abraham Accords.
There’s a genuine possibility President Trump is founded guilty of felony charges and sentenced to jail. Candidly, that’s part of why I’m supporting him. I think our justice system is being weaponized versus him.
If abortion is your crucial concern, then I get it, elect Biden. If any other subject is your essential problem, then do your research and examine the adjustment I described above.
Given the 2 options, I think President Trump is extremely the more powerful prospect. Once again, this is something I could not have actually thought of stating in 2016.
Conclusion
Speak up. Do not be silenced. Liberty of speech deserves absolutely nothing if you’re scared to utilize it. We can’t let cancel culture win.
There’s no higher nation worldwide than America. America has actually had a bad years. America is blessed with a robust constitution, plentiful natural deposits, and varied individuals. The escape from here is by concentrating on our strengths, which are liberalism and effort. We require to begin developing once again.
Best of luck to President Trump.”
