So much for the party of freedom and limited government. Despite former President Donald Trump’s courageous attempt to earn the Libertarian Party’s support for president, the party originally associated with Ron Paul’s freedom revolution picked a nominee who’s previously backed authoritarian leftist policies including mask mandates and open borders. On Sunday, the Libertarian Party announced it had chosen candidate Chase Oliver, notorious for spoiling the 2022 Georgia Senate race where he earned enough votes to force a run-off between Republican Herschel Walker and Democrat Raphael Warnock, the latter of whom ended up winning the seat. While Oliver claims to align with the traditional wing of the Libertarian party, social media posts show he supports far-left policies. LIBERTARIANS: By nominating Chase Oliver the LP just alienated every Silicon Valley libertarian I know. Their presidential nominee supports: – Transitioning children– Mask & Vax mandates– Men in women’s sports– Open borders pic.twitter.com/gdds7SGpY3— @amuse (@amuse) May 27, 2024 For example, Oliver at one point ordered guests to wear masks during a Thanksgiving celebration, saying, “Wear a mask when not eating, Space yourself accordingly.”Power up with Nitric Boost that’s now 40% OFF!

He just won the Libertarian presidential nomination. pic.twitter.com/bcChLUGyQE— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) May 27, 2024 In other posts, Oliver also espoused support for “trans” indoctrination of children, and for biological men participating in women’s sports. Oliver, a staunch LGBTQ+ ally, also previously stated he has no problem with grown men dressed as drag queens reading books to children. Libertarian nominee Chase Oliver:99% of drag queen story hours are fine for kids. If he had children, he says he’d bring them to one and leave them there.“It’s just like the Wiggles” pic.twitter.com/grNYFtAVHQ— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) May 27, 2024 I wrote about Chase Oliver in 2022 when he was running against Warnock and Herschel Walker…he is far closer to a liberal than a conservative https://t.co/Gp44BW6gPf pic.twitter.com/HwyR7yKp4J— Brent Scher (@BrentScher) May 27, 2024 The Libertarian Party presidential candidate has also claimed America would be better off surrendering national sovereignty and having open borders. Earlier this year Chase Oliver, the Libertarian Party Nominee, went to the border to advocate for open borders.With everything we’ve seen happen to our country because of Biden’s policies, this guy is arguing to open the border even more. Naive. Foolish. Anti-American. pic.twitter.com/rAZvtVVZVw— MAZE (@mazemoore) May 27, 2024 He’s also previously backed the BLM social justice movement: Libertarian presidential nominee Chase Oliver is also a radical BLM activist:pic.twitter.com/oz9vOENmDK— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) May 27, 2024 Social media users lamented that Oliver’s nomination signaled the capitulation of the once-great Libertarian Party to the radical left.

(@JackPosobiec) May 27, 2024 Ahead of Oliver’s nomination, former President Donald Trump made history as the first president to appear at the Libertarian National Convention, telling Libertarians to cast their vote for him if they wanted to defeat Joe Biden and the Democrats’ destructive anti-America policies. “Only do that if you want to win,” Trump advised. “If you want to lose, don’t do that.

Unusual visit and private conversation with key witness in Hunter's trial could be interpreted as witness tampering and interference with the legal process. Joe Biden made a surprise visit to his daughter-in-law Hallie Biden’s Delaware home just days before she’s set to serve as a key witness in Hunter Biden’s trial for alleged gun crimes. Biden made the visit at 8 p.m. for a private talk with Hallie, the widow of Beau Biden and ex-girlfriend of Hunter Biden, just a week before Hunter is set to stand trial on June 3, according to the White House pool report. Biden tonight visited his daughter-in-law Hallie Biden who is set to testify in Hunter’s trial next week. pic.twitter.com/hHbok7xlOS— Alex Thompson (@AlexThomp) May 27, 2024 Hallie is just one of a dozen expected witnesses in the upcoming trial. Biden’s unusual visit — he’s never visited Hallie at her residence before — sparked concerns on social media that he could be engaging in witness tampering, especially given the private nature of the conversation.Save 10% on ALL storable food and Alexapure Pro Water Filtration Systems!

The appearance of impropriety is something the president of the United States needs to consider. Even if there wasn’t…— Oliver VanDervoort (@itmeolliev) May 27, 2024 Even’s X’s Grok AI suggested Biden’s visit with Hallie was not appropriate and could be interpreted as interference with the legal process. This comes a week after a White House state dinner with Hunter and Attorney General Merrick Garland on the guest list — not the first time the pair attended such an event at the same time. From National Review: The president does not appear to be distancing himself from his son as the criminal trial is set to get underway. Joe Biden’s visit to Hallie Biden follows a state dinner held by the White House last week with Hunter Biden and Attorney General Merrick Garland on the guest list.Garland is responsible for appointing special counsel David Weiss, who is leading the prosecution of Hunter Biden. The younger Biden’s attorneys have unsuccessfully sought to dismiss his gun charges based on arguments that Weiss is unlawfully appointed and selectively prosecuting Biden, even though Weiss’s boss is an appointee of Biden’s father.Three of Hunter Biden’s exes, including ex-wife Kathleen Buhle and Hallie Biden, are expected to testify about Hunter’s drug addiction at his gun trial beginning next week, the New York Post reported based on the prosecution’s trial brief filed last week. The women are not named in the court filings, but they are identifiable based on data from Biden’s abandoned laptop, Biden’s memoir, public reports, and other available records. The encounter is reminiscent of Bill Clinton privately meeting with former Attorney General Loretta Lynch on the Phoenix airport tarmac just days before Hillary Clinton was to be interviewed by the FBI about her mishandling of classified emails in 2016. Biden’s Justice Department last week admitted that Hunter Biden’s infamous “Laptop From Hell” is real when submitting it to the court as evidence to use against the First Son in his gun trial. “The defendant’s laptop is real (it will be introduced as a trial exhibit) and it contains significant evidence of the defendant’s guilt,” prosecutors wrote in the filing. Hunter pleaded not guilty to three felony counts on charges of lying on his gun purchase form in October 2018 about his drug use. Joe Biden repeatedly defended Hunter as prosecutors were investigating him for tax fraud and as they were preparing to charge him on the gun-related crimes. “First of all, my son has done nothing wrong,” Biden said last year. “I trust him. I have faith in him.”  Follow Jamie White on X | Truth | Gab | Gettr | Minds

Squishy world leader plays both sides of issue to confuse and gaslight Canadian people on Covid jabs. A flashback video reveals Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at one point during the Covid pandemic claimed mRNA vaccines were safe and effective, only to have to backtrack following a multitude of vaccine injuries years later. In a powerful side-by-side comparison circulating on social media, Trudeau of present-day un-ironically declares he’s aware of misinformation surrounding Covid vaccines, with a flash back to Dec. 2020 showing he at one point claimed “any vaccine we distribute for Canadians will be safe for Canadians.” @RealAlexJones Canada THEN vs NOW ? ? pic.twitter.com/5PxupyiUeu— 9/11 Revisited (@911Revisionist) May 27, 2024 The video then gets back to present day where Trudeau admits “there are probably people who probably gotten very sick from vaccinations,” illustrating how Trudeau himself was responsible for the spread of misinformation. The side-by-side is a perfect encapsulation of how the squishy elite manipulate narratives to fit their agendas, gaslighting at every step to shape public opinion while remaining free from repercussions or liability. URGENT! Keep Alex Jones in the fight against the NWO! Please pray & contribute at DefendJones.com today! This is must watch and share! Trudeau put Canada under medical martial law.
