Fact Check: Columbia University Apartheid Divest, it’s member organizations, and its allies(such as Within Our Lifetime, Students For Justice in Palestine, Jewish Voices for Peace, Neutering Karta, ANSWER coalition and Party for Socialism and Liberation) have promoted terrorist organizations (such as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis), totalitarian regimes (such as Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, and Baathist Syria) and stated that they are “fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization”. All of these are reasonable grounds to label them as extremists.

Fact Check: DNI Gabbard confirms that her team will have RFK and MLK assassination files “ready for release here within the next few days”. I’m going to go out on a limb and predict that we will see documents showing the CIA were engaged in more nefarious activity. There seems to be a planned progression to this rollout. I believe the Trump administration are revealing the history of corruption in our intelligence community, so that when they reveal the more recent corruption, it is more believable and digestible for the public. They are showing us examples of the CIA engaged in overthrowing/assassinating leaders that interfere with or impede their agenda. Not just foreign leaders… but domestic ones as well. I believe all of this ends up with revealing that the CIA, and their subsidiaries, tried to do the same thing to Trump that they did to JFK, RFK, MLK, and others. How do you tell 330+ million people that their government is unfathomably corrupt and everything they’ve ever been told is a lie?
