  1. Guys, honestly reading this book Secrets of The First Order felt like snapping out of a trance I didn’t even know I was in. For years I bought into the official narratives. History, media, government. I thought I had it figured out. Then this book flipped everything. It’s not just information, it’s a challenge. If you trust everything you’re told, this isn’t for you. But if some part of you knows there’s more going on than we’re allowed to see, this will shake you.

  2. Hear this guys, I found this book Secrets of The First Order and I couldn’t stop reading. I finished it in one sitting because it pulled something out of me I hadn’t felt in a long time. It gave a voice to a part of me that always knew something was off with the stories we’ve been told. This book isn’t here to make you comfortable. It rips the bandages off. If you’re looking for something safe, this isn’t it. But if you’re ready to face what’s behind the curtain, this book doesn’t hold back.

  3. Yo guys, I thought that this book Secrets of The First Order would be just another book talking about conspiracies. I wasn’t expecting much. But it completely shook me. It didn’t just suggest hidden truths, it tore everything wide open. Every page felt like a cold splash of water to the face. If you’ve ever felt like something is deeply off in the world but couldn’t explain it, this book connects all of it.

  4. I get the dome imagery, but you're not going to unleash that kind of hellfire over your population centres. You aim out.

    If Britain had an iron dome, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, and possibly the Scandis might be in the firing line.

    It's really more of an iron buffer

  5. I think the producers of South Park should have a satirical series with episodes depicting these Trump meetings with various govenment leaders based on any embarrassment (and country-specific insults) the Mango Mussolini can conceivably muster.

  6. Why does SA need the US to help them with law enforcement issues? SA is a sovereign state. It's a failed state but it still is one. If white SA farmers leave the black SA get their land back so what are you moaning about? Typical LBC drivel.

  7. Donald Trump didn’t like it when Zelensky started calling him and JD Vance out, actually the best thing to do is to go in the White house and embarrass him. The South Africans kind of did embarrass him when they started talking about their coalition and the videos of the guy they showed had little to no power. They sat there like ignorant idiots.

  8. Talking about the zelensky oval office display, let's get one thing straight here:

    Zelensky did not take an L, the whole debacle did not rub off on Zelensky in a negative way in the eyes of the rest of the world.

    I do not know how this was perceived inside the us, but I can tell you every sane, morally sound person alive saw an orange abomination trying to bully a wartime president into
    submission.

  9. Trump isn't like that on TV if he is that day is coming where we see him asking Putin about Ukraine on national tv across the 🌍🌎.He gotta show us he got 🏀🏀 s against the Russians not a spineless wimp as they see him in Russia to be one.

  10. Why oh why are LBC Still courting these terrible people. The more ma ga they have on the show the more the British ma ga (brexiteers) will believe this nonsense, become empowered by it and start behaving in the same, moronic, cruel way. Not a single challenge by Marr so what was the point in having her on the show?

  11. Where was Ramaphosa going? What did he expect? short of prostating himself in the oval office floor, to win Trump over. He was getting nothing more than a humiliation. The whole of Africa warned him but he still went to get humiliated by Trump lies and fake news. He will learn or maybe not.

  12. Google 21 Apr 2025 — The SA government published its new racial hiring quotas, which instruct businesses to reduce white males to as little as 4% of its workforce.

    You won't accept that in the UK, why should any country restrict white males to 4% of everything, of land, of opportunities, in the private sector and government and institute financial penalties on businesses for not enforcing the quotas…?

  13. “Donald Trump is completely transparent”. Then why does he fight tooth and nail to withhold his tax returns? let’s hear the 2019 tapes of his phone conversation with Zelensky when he tried to bully him into lying about Hunter Biden if he’s so transparent.

  14. Trump just said last week in Saudi Arabia that he doesn't talk with other countries about morality or how to run their country.
    Trump is trying to put other people in a situation where he can reward them or humiliate them. That's why he likes to use the Oval Office as a set for his reality TV show.
