“I’m back with a vengeance. It’s long overdue for people who’ve been in this scene for decades to speak up about what’s happening within the lifestyle. This was one of the reasons I wrote Power & Betrayal, the second book in the series The Betrayal Chronicles: True Story Motorcycle Club Underworld, dedicated to revealing the truth about the motorcycle club scene.” “There are so many moving parts within the motorcycle club scene that I believe much has been lost or simply made up. I’m going to start writing articles to combat the misinformation spread by the media or even influencers. To do that, the truth must be told, regardless of whether people get upset about it or not.” MOTORCYCLE CLUBS ARE NOT MOTORCYCLE GANGS “It’s time for some honesty if things are going to improve for motorcycle clubs. One truth is that motorcycle clubs are not as popular as they once were. I’ve said many times that people are no longer joining them. Now, you see motorcycle clubs recruiting online—even big 1% clubs—because they can’t attract members. This was unthinkable five years ago, but here we are.” “There can be many reasons why motorcycle clubs are losing their membership. The biggest one everyone knows about is ‘politics.’ For something that’s supposed to be about brotherhood, clubs sure complain more than a stereotype of a nagging woman. Motorcycle clubs have become everything they were meant to oppose. Simple bylaws have now ballooned into small books. Who the hell wants to be part of something that makes you feel like if you mess up, you’re being sent to your room?” Keep your rules to other motorcycle clubs if you want, but don’t try to push them on people who have nothing to do with clubs. James Hollywood Macecari “Moving forward with politics in the scene, people are waking up, homers. People no longer care about the one-percenters’ protocols. I’ve heard it over and over again in the comment sections of our social media: ‘You might have to follow that bullshit, but we’re not.’ It’s just like the passing-the-1%er videos—look at the comments. Those reflect real-life feelings on the subject.” “Let’s be honest. You don’t own the fucking road, and others who ride motorcycles don’t have to follow your rules. I believe there’s a new type of movement in the biker scene—a move toward real independence. It’s independence to live life according to how people individually want to live it. Motorcycle clubs have now become the government; no one likes or respects them anymore. Quite frankly, it’s of motorcycle clubs’ own making.” It’s always enjoyable for me to get into arguments with those who just love to push bullshit. Recently, I had one of those arguments with someone who didn’t like our coverage of the Daytona Bike Week shooting and brawl between the Warlocks MC and Mongols MC “‘Why don’t you do your research and fact-check a news story before you read it?’ That’s the comment that sticks with me as I write this. My answer is this: ‘Because, you dumbass, there’s nothing to fact-check. Those two clubs were going at it in public, firing guns where innocent people were around. That’s some gang-ass shit!’” “I can see people wanting to stand up for clubs—I’ve done it a million times over the years. But to stand up for them over some dumbshit like that, you’re no better than a crazed leftist who believes everything they’re told. If you don’t want to be called a gang, then stop doing gang shit. BE A MOTORCYCLE CLUB AND NOT A GANG Being part of a motorcycle club was fun at one time. For one thing, it didn’t have rules as long as a book, like I mentioned earlier. Secondly, it used to be about riding your motorcycle with your brothers. I’ve always found it funny when club members sit at a bar making fun of someone riding past them. ‘Oh, he’s a fucking RUB.’ That’s actually a bunch of hypocrisy because they’re riding and you’re not. If you join a motorcycle club to ride, you’re going to be disappointed. Most motorcycle club members sit their asses at a bar or clubhouse instead of riding their motorcycles. Hell, that’s one of the reasons I left my last club. If you want to be a motorcycle club, then stop acting like a fucking street gang. When you’re out fighting or shooting in public, you’re doing gang shit, plain and simple. No one—except the MC cheerleaders—is going to defend that dumb shit. I know Insane Throttle isn’t going to, not one bit. If you have members selling drugs or whatever else, then don’t bitch about the label when they get busted. If they’re out there pushing meth and your club doesn’t stop it, you’re a damn gang. On one hand, you claim you’re there for your communities, and on the other hand, you’re pushing shit—shit that will eventually harm families. Don’t cry when you’re labeled a motorcycle gang and your members get RICO charges thrown at them. You’re either going to start taking responsibility for the membership or deal with all that comes with that crap. If these people were your true brothers, they wouldn’t be bringing all that heat onto your club now, would they? Those who claim they don’t care what the public thinks—fine, then keep your bullshit out of the public eye. Keep your rules to other motorcycle clubs if you want, but don’t try to push them on people who have nothing to do with clubs. Motorcycle clubs have now become the government “When did the switch happen? When did motorcycle clubs become like the government? Motorcycle clubs think they have dominion over everyone who rides a motorcycle, and that’s not true whatsoever.” I’ll be the first one to admit that YouTube influencers and other platform influencers have really hurt the club scene. Most of these rules clubs are implementing into their bylaws come from these people. It’s insane, isn’t it? You’re damn right it’s insane because most of that shit is made up out of thin air. Visit Hollywood’s New Website What some of these influencers have done is warped these younger people into thinking what they’re saying is correct. For those who watch some of these influencers talking about clubs, 99.999% of it is all bullshit. For one thing, you should be learning from your club. Secondly, just because someone has a ton of subscribers doesn’t mean they know shit about clubs. My question— one I’d like answered again—is this: When did motorcycle clubs become like the government? It didn’t happen out of thin air because it wasn’t like that until recently. Motorcycle clubs, especially 1% clubs, wanted to stay out of the public eye. Now they’re at the center of attention because they get caught on video blowing up at a civilian just for passing them. Then you have some influencers reposting that video and making up more rules about how to pass a 1%er. It’s freaking crazy—it really is. Don’t cry when you’re labeled a motorcycle gang when your members get RICO charges thrown at them. James Hollywood Macecari It comes down to this: motorcycle clubs are losing respect. Motorcycle clubs are losing that respect because they’ve done it to themselves. If clubs don’t have a ‘come-to-Jesus moment,’ you can bet your ass some of the clubs we see today will be gone in 10 years. Hell, I give it five years until you see many of their chapters shutting down because they can’t get the membership. RIDING CLUBS AND ASSOCIATIONS ARE THE WAY TO GO For the last year, I’ve been pushing riding clubs and associations. The reason I’ve been promoting these types of structures is that they represent freedom. This is what motorcycle clubs used to be about. Now, clubs are more interested in politics than being what they were intended to be. Riding clubs give you the opportunity to ride your motorcycle without the commitments or a book-long rulebook. If you’re going to join a riding club, make sure it’s actually a riding club. Some of these damn riding clubs are operating under false pretenses—they’re just called riding clubs so they don’t have to go through the usual protocol crap. If they have support patches for another club, it’s not a riding club. If they require mandatory runs or parties, it’s not a riding club. A riding club or association is just for that: riding your motorcycle and hanging out with like-minded people. There shouldn’t be any type of commitment. Just saying. No one likes or respects them I’m truly hopeful there will be some kind of seismic shift in the way clubs handle members who bring heat down on them. I also hope they shift their mindset about being the overlords of what someone can or can’t do. It’s this kind of thinking that will drive more and more people away from supporting them. If clubs keep recruiting gangbangers off the streets, expect to be called a motorcycle gang. Most of those bangers being recruited don’t give a shit about being bikers—they only care about what the club’s name can bring them: respect, money, and power. It’s that simple, plain and simple. You’ve seen great club names overseas turn into nothing but organized crime because of this recruitment. The same thing has happened up in Canada. They’re no longer clubs, and it’s a joke for anyone to argue they are. We’ll see where this is all headed, but one thing is for sure: stop with the bullshit in public because people are tired of trying to defend your actions. Do gang shit, and you’re a fucking gang.

He steps into the new role as Congress is debating cuts to the Medicaid program, which provides coverage to millions of poor and disabled Americans. Oz has not said yet whether he would oppose such cuts to the government-funded program, instead offering a vision of promoting healthier lifestyles, integrating artificial intelligence and telehealth into the system, and rethinking rural health care delivery. During a hearing last month, he told senators that he did favor work requirements for Medicaid recipients, but paperwork shouldn’t be used to reaffirm that they are working or to block people from staying enrolled. Oz, who worked for years a respected heart surgeon at Columbia University, also noted that doctors dislike Medicaid for its relatively low payments and some don’t want to take those patients.

His duties will entail overseeing Medicare, Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), including directing decisions related to how the government covers procedures, hospital stays and medication, as well as the reimbursement rates at which healthcare providers get paid for their services. Medicare is a federal healthcare program for seniors aged 65 and up, and currently provides coverage to about 65 million Americans, according to the Center for Medicare Advocacy. Medicaid, a public health assistance program for people with low incomes, covers roughly 72 million Americans, according to Medicaid.gov. Meanwhile, CHIP, which provides free or low-cost health coverage for eligible low-income children and family members, assists around 7.2 million individuals. A graduate of Harvard University, Oz received medical and business degrees from the University of Pennsylvania. He is a former heart surgeon who saw his fame rise through his appearances on daytime television, including “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” and 13 seasons of “The Dr. Oz Show.” Oz later transitioned into politics, launching an unsuccessful bid for Pennsylvania’s open Senate seat in 2022. He lost to John Fetterman, then the state’s lieutenant governor.

Nearly 37 years ago in 1988, Donald Trump went on the Oprah Winfrey Show and your mind is going to be blown when you see this clip. First of all, he sounds EXACTLY like he does today. That is what happens when you have moral conviction and deeply held beliefs. Not rigid to the point where you can’t shift and adapt, but deeply held fundamental beliefs about how the world works. And one of those beliefs was that the USA is being ripped off by every other nation out there. It’s truly incredible to listen to him saying this 37 years ago, when it could have easily been said the day before in a Presidential Speech. President Trump has been incredibly consistent over the years, watching out for America’s best interest. I was also blown away to hear him describe it as a $200 billion problem back in 1988.  Now it’s ballooned into the multi-trillions. We have been cheated and ripped off for decades! The other thing that will absolutely jump out at you in this clip is listening to him talk about running for President. He says he wouldn’t want to do it because it’s a harsh life, but he might consider it if things got bad enough. An absolutely iconic clip. Take a look: President Trump on Oprah Winfrey’s show in 1988. “I’d make our allies pay their fair share.” Today he did just that. pic.twitter.com/Um7Gx4m0mS — Ian Jaeger (@IanJaeger29) April 2, 2025 FULL TRANSCRIPT: Oprah: Last year, criticizing U.S. foreign policy—what would you do differently? Donald: I’d make our allies—forgetting about the enemies, the enemies you can’t talk to so easily—I’d make our allies pay their fair share. We’re a debtor nation. Something’s going to happen over the next number of years with this country, because you can’t keep going on losing two hundred billion. And yet, we let Japan come in and dump everything right into our markets—everything. It’s not free trade. If you ever go to Japan right now and try to sell something—forget about it, Oprah. Just forget about it. It’s almost impossible. They don’t have laws against it. They just make it impossible. They come over here, they sell their cars, their VCRs—they knock the hell out of our companies. And hey, I have tremendous respect for the Japanese people. I mean, you can respect somebody that’s beaten the hell out of you—but they are beating the hell out of this country. Kuwait—they live like kings. The poorest person in Kuwait—they live like kings. And yet they’re not paying. We make it possible for them to sell their oil. Why aren’t they paying us 25 percent of what they’re making? It’s a joke. Oprah: This sounds like political, presidential talk to me. And I know people have talked to you about whether or not you want to run. Would you ever? Donald Trump: Probably not. But I do get tired of seeing the country ripped off. Oprah: Why would you not? Donald Trump: I just don’t think I really have the inclination to do it. I love what I’m doing—I really like it. Also, it doesn’t pay as well. Oprah: No, it doesn’t. Donald Trump: But, you know, I just probably wouldn’t do it, Oprah. I probably wouldn’t. But I do get tired of seeing what’s happening with this country. And if it got so bad, I would never want to rule it out totally—because I really am tired of seeing what’s happening with this country, how we’re really making other people live like kings and we’re not. Oprah: What do you think of this year’s presidential race—the way it’s shaping up? Donald Trump: Well, it’s going to be very interesting. I think that probably George Bush has an advantage in terms of the election. I think that probably people would say that he’s got like that little edge in terms of the incumbency, etc., etc. But I think Jesse Jackson’s done himself very proud. I think Michael Dukakis has done one hell of a job. And George Bush has done a hell of a job. You know, they all went in there sort of as semi-underdogs—including George Bush—and they’ve all come out. I think people that are around all three of those candidates can be very proud of the jobs they’ve done. Oprah: You’ve said, though, that if you did run for president, you believe you’d win? Donald Trump: Well, I don’t know. I think I’d win. I tell you what—I wouldn’t go in to lose. I’ve never gone in to lose in my life. And if I did decide to do it, I think I’d be inclined—I would say that I would have a hell of a chance of winning. Because I think people—I don’t know how your audience feels—but I think people are tired of seeing the United States ripped off. And I can’t promise you everything, but I can tell you one thing—this country would make one hell of a lot of money from those people that, for 25 years, have taken advantage. It wouldn’t be the way it’s been. Believe.

Conservative political strategist Scott Jennings first began showing up on CNN as a contributor years ago. As often as he makes quick work of liberal pundits, I’m surprised they keep bringing him back! But apparently, those ratings matter… even if they fly in the face of that not-so-subtle Progressive agenda CNN likes to push. So, Scott Jennings keeps getting a seat at the table for panel discussions on CNN — to the utter dismay of any Democrat attempting to go toe-to-toe against his quick wit and factual arguments. He doesn’t hold back!  And he certainly didn’t a few days ago. Daniel Koh either had the lack of foresight or pure guts (I’m honestly not sure which) to attack the Trump Administration’s handling of what the Democrats are calling ‘Signal-gate’. And then PRESUME to lecture conservatives about holding people ACCOUNTABLE in the Administration! It helps to know that Daniel Koh was a top Biden adviser, the Deputy Assistant to the President, and also his Deputy Director of the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs. He was literally helping to steer the ship in the White House while Biden’s cognitive decline was peaking during the catastrophic Afghanistan withdraw. And a few days ago he sat right in front of Scott Jennings, attacking conservatives, on the basis of NO ACCOUNTABILITY. And that’s when he knew he’d — well… you know.  He messed up. I want to back up and give you a snippet of Koh’s comments which didn’t quite make the cut at the beginning of the clip I’m about to share, for a little context. Here’s his lead-in argument, courtesy of CNN’s transcript database: KOH: Look, I think that’s precisely right. The reality is if we as United States want to perceive ourselves to be the beacon of what western civilization should be, I think there’s a lot of reason to be very afraid of what we’re seeing right now, when we talked about the deportations, we talk about the lack of the respect of co-equal branches of government. People feel this, that it scares them. And when they see things like, the whole Signal gate last week, and no one has faced a single consequence, you want to talk about people checking out. People have checked out because they say this is a president who doesn’t hinder any consequences on his people when they make a mistake. This is a Secretary of Defense who is not treating sensitive information of American soldiers at risk with the proper care that it deserves, and no one is facing consequences. That’s when people check out and realize that their democracy may not be what they thought it.  (Emphasis added.) “…and no one is facing consequences.”  You don’t say! Jennings wasn’t having any of it, and he let the former Biden official have both barrels of truth. Here’s the clip that is currently under consideration as the MOST BRUTAL Scott Jennings takedown of all time: “Did you recall a single person in your White House or in your Democratic Party asking for the resignation of Lloyd Austin after Afghanistan, after the drone strike that vaporized those kids, or after he went AWOL? Yes or No?” Scott Jennings never misses. pic.twitter.com/fkc6004tZ0 — Thomas Hern (@ThomasMHern) April 3, 2025 BOOM! Thirteen American lives in a complete failure of leadership — that’s not putting American lives at risk?  That’s not compromising American lives? To be clear, Scott Jennings has been sweeping the floor with misplaced Democrat narratives for YEARS; long before President Trump’s November re-election.  It’s not like Jennings suddenly grew a backbone as a result of the election. My point is, these Democratic talking heads KNOW he’s likely to call them on their complete BS, and they STILL give him every chance to call them out! I truly don’t understand it, but I’m here for it! Just a few days before, Jennings chewed up virtually the SAME ARGUMENT with an entirely different panel on CNN! This time, it was Lloyd Austin’s former Pentagon spokesman Chris Meagher who took up the same faulty argument. Scott Jennings shared the exchange, and issued a cut-throat blanket dismissal of Democrat’s willingness to go the hypocritical route. I’ll put the full screen video below for easier viewing: Don’t have time for lectures from Dems who looked the other way on Lloyd Austin’s disastrous tenure at the Pentagon. If you didn’t call for his firing over Afghanistan, the disastrous drone strike, or his going AWOL, maybe take a seat on Hegseth. https://t.co/q58mp4sdem — Scott Jennings (@ScottJenningsKY) March 30, 2025 Here’s the full screen video of that exchange: Scott Jennings lays out the plain facts to Dems calling for firings over Signalgate — JENNINGS: “The bar for firing people like this is really high from the last administration when after the Afghanistan withdrawal, which was a disaster, people died.” “No accountability was… pic.twitter.com/eE5n3liLIk — Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) March 30, 2025 I’m not the only one celebrating Jennings’ ability to repeatedly call out the Democrats for faulty logic. TownHall’s Rebecca Downs has pointed out the same, along with making a really good point when it comes to the Democrats’ defense of Lloyd Austin during the Afghanistan failure. It was, in fact, an utter failure!  It cost American lives!  It left America MORE VULNERABLE than it was before as a direct result of Lloyd Austin’s FAILURES! Meanwhile… the military operation they want Pete Hegseth crucified for was an UNMITIGATED SUCCESS, as TownHall reported: When it comes to Signalgate, Democrats and the mainstream media have talked the issue to death, giving CNN’s conservative commentator Scott Jennings plenty of opportunities to discuss the matter. A consistent theme from Jennings has been to remind the liberal commentators that he’s not going to take lectures on national security from those who supported or even worked for such a failing administration as the Biden-Harris one. The issue of Signlgate was discussed ad nauseam on the Sunday shows, including CNN’s “State of the Union,” where Jennings was part of the panel discussion. He even went up against the former spokesperson for the Pentagon, Chris Meagher, who criticized Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, despite the issues from his boss, then-Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. When it was Jennings’ turn to speak, he pointed to Signlgate as “a mistake” and “a teachable moment,” expressing his confidence that “I have no doubt they won’t do it again.” He also aptly went after the leftist narrative, though. What Democrats tend to forget when focusing on the “small mistake involving communications” and scapegoating Hegseth is that the mission was a success. This is in strong contrast to the Biden-Harris administration’s handling of the Houthis, with President Joe Biden even declassifying them as terrorists. Not only were there no American casualties in the attack on the Houthi targets, but the mission achieved its objectives and destroyed the capacity of a state-sponsored terror group to strike out at America and our allies! It also FINALLY brought a response to all the attacks on American troops from that very group during the Biden Administration, with Lloyd Austin as Secretary of Defense, that went completely unanswered! Jennings isn’t stingy with his skillful technique, either.  He shared this video several days ago as a masterclass in how to deal with hypocritical Democrat narratives: When they say “if this happened under a Democrat…” here’s what you do. https://t.co/pXNAUGBt40 — Scott Jennings (@ScottJenningsKY) March 29, 2025 And surprise, surprise!  Just a few days before THAT… Democrats tried EXACTLY the same non-accountability argument, with ANOTHER CNN panel! Do these people not watch their own network?  Do they not realize Scott Jennings is repeatedly destroying their ONLY talking point? Here’s Jennings absolutely infuriating Neera Tanden, President & CEO of the Progressive Think Tank ‘Center for American Progress’, with his simple tactic of using logic: NEW: CNN panel lectures America on military “accountability”… …and then melts down when Scott Jennings points out that no one was held accountable for the disaster in Afghanistan or Biden’s open border. NEERA TANDEN: “The military requires accountability. It’s the most… pic.twitter.com/jKZhU7fwEo — The Vigilant Fox (@VigilantFox) March 28, 2025 I love how he sticks to his guns when they claim he’s ‘excusing’ the mistake of the Signal Chat fiasco, and he calmly explains that he’s not excusing it — BUT THERE’S A DIFFERENCE! The problem is not that there isn’t a difference; the problem is that Democrats who are defensive about their support of Joe Biden and Lloyd Austin and all the culprits who nearly DESTROYED this country… are unwilling to SEE that difference. That’s cognitive dissonance 101.  They literally can’t HANDLE their reality being so off base… and so their brain finds a way to not see that fact. They’re often not lying.  It is often more accurate to say they are self-deceived. And thankfully, as long as there are self-deceived Democrats willing to spout that faulty logic on CNN panels night after night… the need for RATINGS will probably keep CNN paying Scott Jennings to keep coming back. And he’ll keep making simple points that cause liberal heads to explode. And we’ll bring you those stories… because they are GLORIOUS! And because the truth needs to be told, sometimes over and over again, before some folks will finally ‘hear’ it. Keep at it, Scott Jennings.  We’re loving every minute of it!
