Presidente de Brasil nomina a su aliado Jorge Messias al Supremo Tribunal Federal
SAO PAULO (AP) — El presidente de Brasil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, nominó el jueves a Jorge Messias como juez del Supremo Tribunal Federal.
Messias, actualmente procurador general de Brasil, es el tercer nominado de Lula para el máximo tribunal durante este mandato.
El nombramiento ahora pasa al Senado para una votación. Si se confirma, Messias ocupará el puesto dejado por el exjuez Luís Roberto Barroso, quien se jubiló en octubre.
“Hago esta recomendación con la confianza de que Messias continuará cumpliendo su papel en la defensa de la Constitución y el Estado de derecho en el STF, como lo ha hecho a lo largo de su vida pública”, dijo Lula en Instagram.
Messias, de 45 años, trabajó en varias ramas del gobierno federal antes de ser nombrado procurador general en 2023. Es conocido como un aliado de Lula y de la expresidenta Dilma Rousseff, quien sucedió a Lula en 2011 y fue destituida tras un juicio político en 2016.
El juez André Mendonça, quien fue nombrado por el expresidente Jair Bolsonaro en 2021, aplaudió la nominación de Messias.
“Es un candidato calificado de la Procuraduría General y cumple con los requisitos constitucionales. También felicito al presidente por su elección. Messias contará con mi total apoyo en un diálogo republicano con los senadores”, declaró Mendonça.
El STF de Brasil, compuesto por 11 miembros, ha estado bajo fuerte presión desde 2023, el mismo año en que los partidarios de Bolsonaro destrozaron su edificio en la capital, Brasilia, el 8 de enero.
El líder derechista fue puesto bajo investigación poco después y llevado a juicio. En septiembre, con Barroso como presidente del tribunal, un panel del STF sentenció a Bolsonaro a 27 años y tres meses de prisión por intento de golpe de Estado, que incluyó los disturbios dentro del edificio del tribunal.

EEUU deberá restituir programa que protege de la deportación a jóvenes migrantes
Por VALERIE GONZALEZ
Un juez federal emitió una orden el miércoles requiriendo que la administración Trump considere nuevamente otorgar protección contra la deportación a ciertos jóvenes inmigrantes vulnerables.
El juez de distrito Eric Komitee ordenó a los Servicios de Ciudadanía e Inmigración de Estados Unidos (USCIS) que consideren nuevamente otorgar protección contra la deportación bajo un programa de 2022 que la agencia rescindió en junio. La decisión permitirá que el programa continúe mientras la demanda presentada por los demandantes en julio sigue su curso.
Los niños y jóvenes afectados son aquellos que han sido abusados, descuidados o abandonados por un padre y han recibido el estatus de Inmigrante Juvenil Especial a través de un tribunal estatal y el gobierno federal.
El estatus SIJS, como se le conoce, fue creado con el apoyo bipartidista del Congreso en 1990, y aunque no otorga estatus legal, permite a los jóvenes que califican solicitar una visa para convertirse en residentes permanentes legales y obtener un permiso de trabajo. Pueden pasar años para que una visa esté disponible debido a los límites anuales. Durante la administración del expresidente Joe Biden, el USCIS podía conceder amparo ante la deportación a los beneficiarios mientras esperaban una visa.
Sin el programa de acción diferida, los jóvenes no califican para un permiso de trabajo, enfrentan la deportación y ya no serían elegibles para convertirse en residentes permanentes legales si son devueltos a su país de origen.
“El núcleo de la decisión del tribunal es que el gobierno no puede simplemente quitarle el suelo a cientos de miles de jóvenes como lo hizo sin considerar cómo construyeron toda su vida en torno a la política que existía”, afirmó Stephanie Ellie Norton, abogada de los demandantes que trabaja para el Proyecto Nacional de Inmigración.
Ni el USCIS y ni el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional han comentado sobre el fallo del juez.
Bajo las órdenes del juez, aquellos que ya tenían la protección, así como los nuevos solicitantes, podrán solicitar que se les conceda esta protección. El USCIS también estará obligado a tomar decisiones sobre las solicitudes de permiso de trabajo para los nuevos solicitantes y los ya designados con estatus de acción diferida.
El juez no ha dictaminado sobre si la demanda puede proceder como colectiva, pero el litigio se reanudará.

Plan Commission approves DePaul’s controversial plan for Lincoln Park athletic facility
The Chicago Plan Commission approved a proposal Thursday by DePaul University to build a $42 million basketball practice facility in the heart of its Lincoln Park campus, a controversial plan that will require demolishing a row of century-old residential buildings.
University officials told commission members DePaul’s lack of modern practice courts makes it hard to compete for athletic talent with schools in the Big East Conference, decreasing DePaul’s national visibility and potential to attract other students.
“We are getting turned down because of our lack of facilities,” said DePaul University Athletic Director DeWayne Peevy. When Peevy joined DePaul five years ago, “we were last in the Big East Conference in almost every category,” he said.
The four-story facility will be on the northwest corner of Sheffield Avenue and Belden Avenue, and provide two basketball courts, one apiece for the men’s and women’s teams. The upper floor courts will feature floor-to-ceiling glass, while training and team meeting rooms, sports medicine facilities and locker rooms for other student athletes will occupy the lower floors.
The university plans to demolish five DePaul-owned buildings, which are a mix of student housing and administrative offices, including several three-story walk-up townhouses. The plan still needs an approval from City Council.
The project won the support of Ald. Timmy Knudsen, 43rd, but many community members and historic preservationists say they would prefer DePaul use a Fullerton Avenue parking lot it owns one block north for a new basketball facility.
“We surveyed the neighborhood during the planning process, and once people learned of the options DePaul had, it didn’t make sense to them why DePaul would tear down these gorgeous homes,” said Brian Comer, president of the Sheffield Neighborhood Association, who challenged Knudsen for his Council seat in 2023, losing in a 52-48 vote. “We want the university to expand and be successful, we just disagree with how they’re going about it.”
Historic preservationists agreed DePaul University needs to grow, but said Lincoln Park has already lost too much of its history.
“We get it, it’s just that there are available sites that are ready and do not require the demolition of the neighborhood’s historic fabric,” said Ward Miller, executive director of Preservation Chicago. “What makes the DePaul campus special is how well it’s integrated into the community.”
Rich Wiltse, vice president for facility operations, said the school considered several sites, but the Belden Avenue location was the best fit. It’s in the university‘s dead center, an appropriate spot for a student-only building. The Fullerton Avenue lot is on the campus’ northern edge, so it makes more sense to use it for a more community-focused, marquee attraction, perhaps a hotel or convention center with first-floor retail.

Commission members asked DePaul officials whether they had done enough to win community support.
The school spent several years meeting with local community organizations, including the Sheffield Neighborhood Association, said Peter Coffey, DePaul’s associate vice president for community and government relations. The university agreed to include an increased setback from the property line, widening the sidewalks, and additional sustainability measures such as rooftop solar power and bird-friendly glass.
Other groups such as the Wrightwood Neighbors Association, which represents the neighborhood north of Fullerton Avenue, and Lincoln Park Chamber of Commerce backed the project, according to Coffey.
“I don’t know whether this association, Sheffield Neighborhood, is speaking for the broader community,” Coffey said.
Although two of the Sheffield Avenue buildings targeted for demolition are “orange-rated” by the city, or potentially historic, neither meets the threshold for landmark status, said Dijana Cuvalo, an architect with the Historic Preservation Division of the Chicago Department of Planning and Development.
The university did agree to support any city effort to landmark several historic buildings on campus, including Cortelyou Commons, a reception hall built in 1929 at 2324 N. Fremont St., and Peter V. Byrne Hall at 2219 N. Kenmore Ave. Cuvalo said the city could start that process early next year.
Comer said his association will continue to work with DePaul through the DePaul University Lincoln Park Neighborhood Advisory Council, founded in 1989 to manage relations between the school and surrounding neighborhoods.
“The university and the neighborhood have grown symbiotically with one another for more than 70 years,” Comer said. “But they’ve changed the way they go about development. If the university keeps expanding this way, eventually they’re going to cut our neighborhood in half.”
MAHA And GLP-1s Are About To Deal A Big Blow To The Processed-Foods Industrial Complex
MAHA And GLP-1s Are About To Deal A Big Blow To The Processed-Foods Industrial Complex
The US processed-food industrial complex, partly controlled by globalist mega-corps, is beginning to reckon with a new reality: Make America Healthy Again and rising weight-loss drug use are reshaping what Americans eat – and what they’re walking away from, mostly junk food loaded with toxic seed oils, as well as alcohol.
In the coming weeks, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Donald Trump’s Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, will be releasing new dietary guidelines to reset America’s food supply chain away from toxic seed oils and highly processed foods toward real food. This is part of the MAHA trend.
MAHA, combined with the expected surge in GLP-1 demand (thanks to Trump’s deal with Novo Nordisk and Lilly to cut costs), is likely to wipe out tens of billions in food and beverage sales in the coming years.
Bloomberg Intelligence analysts Jibril Lawal and Jennifer Bartashus forecast that the rapid adoption of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs will reduce US and European food and beverage sales by $53 billion by 2035.
Weight-loss drugs are reshaping consumption, and our analysis shows GLP-1s are set to erase $53 billion in food and beverage sales by 2035. Volume losses will be steepest in snacks, baked goods and confectionery — a 4-6% sales drag in the US and 3-5% in Europe. Alcohol also faces a 2-4% drop as consumers shift to healthier options. -Lawal
Here are the key takeaways from the report that only suggest a coming food revolution across the West:
1. GLP-1s Could Cut Food, Beverage Sales by Billions
The adoption of GLP-1 drugs will significantly reduce US and European food and beverage consumption if uptake reaches 19.5% and 13.1% of the adolescent and adult population (ages 12-65+) by 2035, BI’s high-end scenario analysis shows. Our model isolates volume impact only and excludes pricing increases or reformulations that might offset lower consumption. Under these assumptions, baked-goods sales are expected to drop by $11.5 billion and confectionery $8 billion — the largest food declines — while beer and spirits may fall by $12.5 billion and $9.2 billion, the steepest beverage contractions. Concurrently, we anticipate demand to shift toward healthier alternatives, with bottled water, fruits and vegetables each gaining more than $4 billion over the period.
2. Food Losses Exceed $21 Billion in US and Europe
3. Sweet, Salty Sales to Drop $25 Billion on GLP-1s
Consumption of salty snacks and sweet treats, including confectionery, baked goods and cookies, looks set to significantly decline if GLP-1 use expands over the next decade, with our scenario analysis showing as much as a $25.1 billion decrease in total category sales by 2035 — $13 billion in the US and $12.1 billion in Europe. In the US, confectionery intake is expected to drop 28% per GLP-1 user, followed by baked goods and biscuits (23.7% each), translating to a 4-6% category sales drag by 2035, based on our model. Europe could have even sharper reductions, with confectionery down 31% and baked goods and salty snacks off 28%, weighing on sales 3- 5%.
Companies most exposed, like PepsiCo, Mondelez, Hershey, General Mills and Conagra, may accelerate R&D investments to reformulate products and retain demand.
4. Beer and Spirits Face $29 Billion GLP-1 Hangover
Use of weight-loss drugs stand to deepen alcohol’s demand slump in the US and Europe, as moderation and wellness trends gain ground. By 2035, consumption of beer and spirits is expected to drop 20.3% and 19.2% among GLP-1 users, and 22.5% and 23.2% in Europe, according to our analysis. Total losses could reach $28.5 billion, which translates to a 3-4% sales drag in the US and 2-3% in Europe. Major players at risk include Diageo (17.5% share of the $112 billion US spirits market, 16.7% of the $109 billion Western Europe market), AB InBev (31.9% of the $111 billion US beer market), and Heineken (18.3% of the $166 billion Western Europe beer market), based on Euromonitor data
5. Total Beverage Net Losses Could Reach $32 Billion
6. Beer and Spirits Face $29 Billion GLP-1 Hangover
7. Weight-Loss Drugs Trim Soft Drinks’ Fizz
As the use of GLP-1s widens, demand for full-calorie sodas will likely erode. BI’s model shows US consumption of regular (full calorie) soda will fall about 19.2% among these drug users and 17.2% in Europe a year between 2024-35, equating to a combined $4.7 billion sales hit — about 3.3% in the US and 2.3% in Europe. The effect on low- or no-sugar drinks might be less pronounced at under 1% in both regions. Leading soft-drink makers such as Coca-Cola, with a 36% share of the $99 billion US soda market, and PepsiCo (20.5%) are most adversely affected. In Western Europe, Coca-Cola has a 48.6% share, while PepsiCo holds 12.9%, according to Euromonitor data.
8. Fresh Produce Sales to Get $9 Billion GLP-1 Bump
Demand for fresh fruits and vegetables is rising, fueled in part by greater GLP-1 use, and food retailers can benefit as sales for produce are expected to climb to $9.3 billion across the US and Europe by 2035, according to BI’s model. Each GLP-1 user is expected to consume about 11.6% more produce, driving a 1-3% sales boost, our analysis shows. Consumer trends emphasizing wellness and nutrition support this as health-focused baskets shift. Retailers such as Kroger, Albertsons, Sprouts, and Walmart are investing in fresh supply chains to enhance produce quality and extend shelf life, while an uptick in consumption of perishables could drive store visits and long-term loyalty.
MAHA and soaring GLP-1 adoption are pushing consumers away from ultra-processed junk food, seed-oil-laden snacks, and alcohol. The emergence of this trend has already been observed, read here and here. The shift is set to accelerate once RFK Jr. unveils new federal dietary guidelines aimed at steering the nation back to real, whole foods after mega corps hijacked the food supply with toxic processed foods and seed oils.

Condenan a 20 años de cárcel a mexicana implicada en asesinato de tres surfistas de Australia y EEUU
Associated Press
CIUDAD DE MÉXICO (AP) — Una mexicana fue condenada a 20 años de prisión tras declararse culpable del delito de robo con violencia en el caso de dos australianos y un estadounidense que fueron asesinados el año pasado en las costas del estado de Baja California, en el noroeste de México, anunciaron el jueves autoridades estatales.
El crimen de los hermanos australianos Callum Ryan Robinson y Jake Martin Robinson y del estadounidense Carter Redd Rhoad desató conmoción y avivó las preocupaciones por los riesgos que enfrentan los turistas ante la violencia que golpea vastas regiones de México.
En un procedimiento abreviado, Ary Gisell Silva Raya fue sentenciada tras declararse culpable de los delitos de “robo calificado con violencia” y “robo de vehículo con violencia”, indicó la Fiscalía de Baja California. Asimismo, un juez local le impuso a Silva Raya un pago de 54.285 pesos (unos 2.714 dólares) por reparación de daño.
Según un comunicado de la fiscalía estatal, Silva Raya llegó el 27 de abril del 2024 a Punta San José, a unos 80 kilómetros al sur de Ensenada, donde tuvo contacto con los tres extranjeros e “instigó a uno de sus acompañantes a despojarlos de sus bienes”, lo que se concretó un día después.
La mujer, que fue pareja de uno de los detenidos por el caso, fue arrestada poco después que se localizaron los cuerpos de los hermanos Robinson y Rhoad, quienes habían viajado en abril del año pasado a Punta San José para surfear.
Allí fueron asaltados, golpeados y asesinados y luego sepultados en un pozo donde los localizaron las autoridades.
Por el caso fueron detenidos tres hombres, entre ellos Jesús Gerardo García, alias “el Kekas”, palabra que en la jerga local significa quesadillas o tortillas de queso. García fue pareja de Silva Raya, a quien las autoridades le incautaron un teléfono de una de las víctimas. Los tres hombres están a la espera de sentencias.
Nonprofit files complaint against Illinois, says state should not have blocked disability housing in Elgin
A nonprofit provider for people with severe developmental disabilities is going to court against the state, arguing Gov. JB Pritzker’s Department of Human Services improperly denied it permission to build a cluster of new homes in Elgin.
The denial related to rules that restrict building multiple homes for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities next to each other, according to court documents. And the state said the provider had gotten ahead of itself in asking to build multiple community-based homes before it had successfully run one.
The organization, Marklund, argued the state had leaned on arbitrary factors to nix its request at a time when hundreds of people with disabilities are seeking homes that are integrated into neighborhoods.
“They are stuck in the dark ages,” Marklund President and CEO Gil Fonger said in an interview. “We’re trying to innovate and the state, for whatever reason, has no appetite for innovation.”
The complaint, filed late last week in Kane County Circuit Court, speaks to the challenges of opening new residential options that meet the promise of community-integrated living without feeling like institutions, experts said this week.
The Department of Human Services didn’t respond to a request for comment Thursday.
Marklund first proposed building seven four-bedroom “ranch homes” for people with disabilities six years ago, Fonger said.
Federal rules generally state that so-called community integrated living arrangements, or CILAs, can’t be directly next to each other. The rules were put in place to prevent people with disabilities from being isolated from the communities in which they live, as they can be in an institutional setting.
Those rules also allow providers to request waivers, and Marklund submitted a request in June 2024, arguing, in part, that a cluster setting would allow them to more efficiently utilize staff for people with severe medical and behavioral needs, according to the legal complaint and attached documents.
But the state has repeatedly denied Marklund’s waiver requests, according to court documents.
In the most recent denial, the state said Marklund couldn’t open multiple homes under its current provisional license because it hadn’t yet opened or operated a single community-integrated living arrangement. An administrative law judge said existing rules limit the number of CILAs a provider can operate until it’s fully licensed.
Marklund has said that, while they don’t run a CILA, they operate other state-licensed residential facilities.
Earlier state denials included reasons that Marklund argued were arbitrary. IDHS at one point said it was only considering homes with three bedrooms, whereas Marklund was proposing homes with four bedrooms, for example, according to the complaint. The IDHS website defines a CILA as having eight or fewer residents.
State and federal rules for those operating CILAs are generally intended to ensure the safety of people with developmental disabilities while still allowing for a home-like setting, as many states, including Illinois, seek to provide more options outside of state-operated developmental centers, or SODCs.
Illinois has a troubled track record of transitioning residents to group homes, and supply remains low. At the same time, the number of people living in larger settings is smaller than the population of residents in smaller settings across the state.
The Tribune reported earlier this year that hundreds of people living in Illinois’ seven SODCs — close to 15% of the total population in those centers — were seeking options elsewhere, often in community-integrated settings.
Illinois has an impetus to help those who want to leave its SODCs. In 2011, the state fell under a consent decree to ensure it establishes a process for people living in the state facilities to have the opportunity to move to a community-based group home; the consent decree was an offshoot of a 2005 lawsuit filed on behalf of people with developmental disabilities who sought placement in community-based facilities.
Marklund is not opposed to going through the entire CILA licensing process, but leaders at the nonprofit want to know whether it will be eligible to build multiple homes, Fonger said. The provider is looking to specifically serve people with severe medical and behavioral needs who have few options otherwise, and it wouldn’t be cost-effective to open just one home, he said.
“We’re just puzzled that the state is fighting so hard against this,” Fonger said. “Lead, follow or get the hell out of the way.”

NC State football commit Stephen Brown gears up to go out big for Marist in basketball. ‘I have that passion.’
Marist’s Stephen Brown is gearing up for his final basketball season. It’s a reality that neither Brown nor anyone else around him could have imagined a few years ago.
Brown was a much-hyped prospect before he even got to high school. He had offers from Illinois and Miami by the time he was a sophomore. But his path turned toward football, where he emerged as a productive receiver/tight end.
Then on Thursday, Brown announced his commitment to play football at North Carolina State. Now, the senior forward can focus on making the most out of one more year of basketball, the sport that has been such a huge part of his early life.
“Knowing this is my last basketball season, it makes me want to go out and win something big,” Brown said. “The goal is definitely to win state. I still love basketball. I have that passion for basketball, so I’m going to give my all for my last season.”
Brown is one of several key seniors returning for Marist along with guards Adoni Vassilakis and TJ Tate and guard/forward Karson Thomas. Senior forward Charles Barnes, a transfer from De La Salle, is a big addition and the RedHawks have plenty of depth beyond that first five.
It has Brown dreaming big.

“We’ve never won a basketball state championship in school history,” Brown said of Marist. “We have a team that can do it. I think we can live up to the hype and we can pull out a win.”
The last few months have been hectic and full of big decisions for Brown.
Over the summer, he decided to quit football and focus on basketball. He was not on the football roster to start the season. But by early September, he had a change of heart and returned to the team.
“Even though I had a good summer playing basketball, I missed football and I wanted to get back out there,” Brown said. “I really love both sports, but I’ve started to love football just a little bit more.”

On the basketball side, Brown’s recruiting story falls in line with many in recent classes. The big offers came early, then started to diminish as college programs focus more on the transfer portal.
Brown tried to stay even-keeled through it all.
“I never really took too much time to worry about it,” Brown said. “At the end of the day, I knew my journey was going to be my journey. It’s gone well so far.”
Brown averaged 11 points and seven rebounds last season as the RedHawks finished 31-3 and won a regional title.

For this season, his teammates and coaches see Brown ready to play to his full potential with the weight off his shoulders from having a college decision made.
“He’s been showing out in practice,” Vassilakis said. “We love having him here. He plays hard and I think he’s going to pay a little more freely now, too.”
Marist coach Brian Hynes has seen Brown deal with large expectations and tough choices. All that’s left now is to have a fun senior year.
“I’ve known him since he was 13 years old and the whole world thought he should be this or do this,” Hynes said. “I remember being his age and just playing video games, not having recruiters and agents calling me. Now he can kind of breathe and just be Stephen Brown.”

Brown remembers stepping onto the basketball court for the first time in second grade.
“I was taller than everybody, so my dad said, ‘You might as well play basketball,’” he said. “I tried it out and I fell in love with it.”
Now, football is his future. But there’s still the present.
Brown has taken on a championship-or-bust mindset. However the season ends, he knows there will be strong feelings involved.
“It’s definitely going to be emotional playing my last basketball games,” he said. “But I feel like I made the right choice. So, I’m just going to enjoy this season.”
Pese a críticas tras goleada ante EEUU, Marcelo Bielsa dice que sigue al timón de Uruguay
Por RAMIRO BARREIRO
MONTEVIDEO (AP) — Pese a la ola de críticas que desató una goleada sufrida ante Estados Unidos dos días atrás, Marcelo Bielsa aseveró el jueves que seguirá al mando de la selección de Uruguay que se apresta a disputar el Mundial del año próximo.
El estratega argentino afirmó que tiene “la misma fuerza desde el primer día para seguir en la selección hasta el Mundial” y desterró los rumores de renuncia.
“Si en algún momento me plantee que no debía continuar no fue en este momento”, precisó
Bielsa convocó a conferencia de prensa en el museo del fútbol del estadio Centenario y aclaró que ante las críticas decidió dar la cara por la derrota y responder ante la prensa en lo que terminó siendo una especie de rendición de cuentas.
Reconoció que se siente “avergonzado” por la derrota de 5-1 que le endilgó en el partido amistoso una de las selecciones anfitrionas de la próxima Copa del Mundo, aunque rechazó las críticas de la prensa, en especial, las que calificaron la actuación celeste como “un desastre”.
El entrenador advirtió que dejaría el cargo si se lo piden los jugadores del plantel, al tiempo que aseguró contar con el apoyo del coordinador de selecciones Jorge Giordano y el presidente de la Asociación Uruguaya de Fútbol (AUF), Ignacio Alonso.
“El proyecto sigue como está hasta el Mundial”, ratificó el entrenador, que reconoció como problemas la falta de efectividad y de ocasiones de peligro generadas por la Celeste, algo que no atribuyó sólo a los delanteros sino a todo el equipo.
Bielsa asumió el mando de la selección uruguaya el 15 de marzo de 2023, luego de que la AUF no renovó el contrato de Diego Alonso, tras una magra Copa del Mundo en Catar 2022, en la que no pudo superar la fase de grupos.
Buena parte de la afición celebró la llegada del rosarino que, en contraparte, recibió la hostilidad de parte de la prensa local, que rechazaba un seleccionador extranjero y le señalaba malos tratos a funcionarios de la federación.
El equipo ha tenido una efectividad del 55 % hasta la fecha, con 14 victorias y 11 empates en 34 partidos que le permitieron clasificar al Mundial del año próximo y obtener un tercer puesto en la última Copa América.

Miller: Democrats Are A “Third World Party”; They Want “An Insurrection”
Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
Senior Trump advisor Stephen Miller has unleashed a blistering tirade during a Fox News interview, accusing Democrats of inciting “insurrection” by urging the CIA and Armed Forces to defy President Trump’s orders—demanding their resignation and labeling the party a “third world” entity obsessed with power through any means.
Miller slammed Democrat lawmakers for calling on spy agencies and troops to rebel, urging “These lawmakers should resign in disgrace and never return to public office again!”
“Saying that you have the right and duty and obligation to defy orders of the Commander-in-Chief?!” Miller proclaimed, adding “It’s a general call for rebellion from the CIA and the Armed Services of the United States by Democrat lawmakers, saying…that those who carry weapons in America’s name should defy their chain of command and engage in open acts of insurrection?!”
“That the CIA, the clandestine service, which isn’t even legally authorised to operate in the United States, should engage in, again, acts of rebellion and insurrection!” Miller reiterated.
“It is insurrection. Plainly, directly, without question!” He stressed.

Miller further highlighted the severity, stating “There is nothing graver that you could possibly say as a United States Senator than encouraging, URGING, DIRECTING members of the Armed Forces of the United States or the clandestine services of the United States, to defy their president, defy their chain of command, defy their superiors.”
“To say such a thing would require you to have and to present to the nation some extraordinary scandal beyond even our wildest imagination, which of course they don’t have, because every single thing that this president has done has been not only lawful, but has been repairing and reversing the unlawful and unconstitutional behavior of the previous administration!” Miller declared.

Miller eviscerated the Democrat mindset, noting “When we say that Democrats are communists, we don’t just mean that they believe in the state control of property. We mean they’ve adopted a method of thinking in which ANY use of force is justified for their state of power and control!”
“They don’t believe in systems, they don’t believe in rules, they don’t believe in laws. They believe in whatever keeps them in power,” he exclaimed.
“And if what they think keeps them in power is a military insurrection or a CIA insurrection, that’s what they support!” Miller continued, adding “If a Democrat complains about election integrity, that person’s a hero. If a Republican complains about election integrity, that person’s to be jailed and incarcerated for life.”
“This is the moment that we’re in. This is what we’re dealing with! They have become a third world party and we have to internalize that. We’re not dealing with the old Democratic Party, we’re dealing with a third world party,” Trump’s advisor sternly outlined.
