Some outraged Americans on the social media platform X attributed her reaction to a kind of deer-in-the-headlights-style panic. The likely truth, however, should strike readers as far more sinister.

He lived through the 1968 riots and documented his experiences on News4 as part of the station’s 40th anniversary coverage. Ward attended HD Woodson High School and the University of Maryland. Ward’s journalism career began in radio. He worked for WPFW, WAMU and WTOP, covering major stories such as the Iran-Contra hearings, the Sept. 11 attack on the Pentagon, and the Washington-area sniper shootings. When Ward made the move to television reporting, his first job was at WKBW-TV in Buffalo. He returned to Washington in 2006 and began reporting for News4. Ward had a way with words and music. He shined when he had a pen, a microphone — or a guitar – in his hands. In a statement, Ward’s family called him an inspiration and cherished member of his family and hometown.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Perhaps the biggest unsolved mystery over the last 10 years has been what happened at the Bush Sr. funeral and what exactly was in those mystery envelopes that were passed out to so many Presidents and First Ladies?  Now that we’re back in the same room for the Jimmy Carter funeral, it seemed like the right time to re-examine this.  Please enjoy this walk down memory lane, and perhaps we will have our answer soon…. I’m digging into this story again because I believe we are VERY close… And I want this to be fresh in your mind when it all goes down. Do you remember those envelopes that were passed out at the Bush Sr. funeral? I want to go back and look at those again because I have a hunch they are about to become VERY relevant… Remember how Q said “the first arrest will shock the world”? [more on that below — I’ll give you my opinion which has been confirmed by a few of my intel sources at the bottom of this article] Do you remember how these really weird envelopes were passed out at the funeral and only certain Deep State cabal members got one? And each person to a man (here’s looking at you Michael) nearly turned white after they opened them? And then quickly stuffed them back in the envelope? Remember that? Well, the video has been almost completely scrubbed from YouTube and Twitter, but I found and saved some copies on Rumble. Watch: Analysis by Lin Wood:   Here is the raw footage: Far left Right Wing Watch explained a theory from Dr. Dave Janda: Right-wing conspiracy theorist and radio host Dave Janda appeared on Greg Hunter’s “USA Watchdog” program last week, where he declared that the nomination of William Barr to the position of attorney general is confirmation that former president George W. Bush has “flipped” and is now working with President Trump to take down the “deep state” in exchange for protection for his family. While promoting the right-wing conspiracy theory that the Obamas, Clintons, and various other high-ranking officials who attended the funeral of former president George H.W. Bush last month received mysterious envelopes hidden in their programs, allegedly informing them that they are under indictment, Janda asserted that George W. Bush met at the White House with Trump the day before the service to cut a deal to reveal what he knows about the deep state’s involvement in everything from human trafficking to drug running. “From what I understand, George W. had come to a point in his life where he said, ‘Look, I can’t be involved in this stuff,’” Janda said. “I believe he reached out to President Trump and could well have said, ‘Look, I will give you information on everything [in exchange for protection for my family].’” Janda said the fact that Trump nominated Barr the day following the funeral was “confirmation” that this deal had been struck. “I think that part of the deal that was constructed with ‘W’ was, ‘Look, you hand over all this information and we go after all these folks … But to assure you that we’re good on our side of the deal, we will put in William Barr, who was the attorney general under your father for a period of time,’” Janda said. “Barr, I think, ultimately, what he’ll do is he will push the Bush family to the side, as far as prosecutions, and I believe he’ll focus more on the other side of the ledger, that being the Clintons, the Obamas, and a lot of these other players.” Here’s the theory from GreysEconomy: In the latest drop we get a possible reason why Vice President Mike Pence and his wife Karen received an envelope at George Bush’s funeral last year and why Lt. Gen Michael Flynn was set up by the FBI. The link to a Sara Carter story shows additional texts between disgraced ex-FBI Special Agent Peter Strzok and his lover ex-FBI Attorney Lisa Page attempting to develope and inside the White House spy during the Trump transition team after the 2016 election. In quite an extensive article Cater lays out what Strzok and Page had in mind. Pence’s chief of staff in the early days of the Trump Administration was Josh Pitcock. Pitcock was married to Katherine Seaman. Seaman worked for the FBI and prior to the election worked with Strzok and Page on the Hillary Clinton email probe. This is why the call it the swamp. The connections are so rife with married couples seldom taking the same name in order to obfuscate the connections. As you can see above Karen Pence like all the other wives at the Bush funeral received a note inside their programs. Also note behind Pence and to his left a Secret Service agent is monitoring his reaction while the Veep sits directly behind the President. What the notes contained has never been divulged the reactions by the recipients was not joyous, in fact horror and/or dread was seen on many of the faces after reading the notes. (Please read this post to get the full story.) My high-octane speculation is that Trump’s intelligence team discovered that Pence knew about Pitcock’s activities of spying on the newly elected president and Pence may have also agreed to help Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein with his case of Trump being unfit to serve making Pence president under the 25th Amendment. I believe Lt. Gen Flynn, Trump’s original NSA Director, has all the details on Pence, Pitcock and Seaman but had his legs cut out from under him by the FBI when Strzok and another agent interviewed him without a lawyer about speaking to foreign officials during the transition. The FBI had tapes of Flynn on a phone call with the then-Russian Foreign Minister and when Flynn could not recall the exact details of the call the FBI charged him with lying. This was to disgrace Flynn and keep the Pence spying information a secret. But it did not work. Stay tuned. This is a blockbuster. So why did Pence get one? That’s the big question. And Michelle: More: More: https://rumble.com/embed/vb0e3z/?pub=lzerp More: https://rumble.com/embed/vb3vxf/?pub=lzerp More: Ok, now back to Q. Here is the original Q Post 3716 about the first arrest to wake up the world: Let’s look at this logically for a second… People already hate Obama and Hillary. Would their arrest “shock the world”? Or in the actual phrasing of the post would their arrest “trigger a mass pop awakening”? No, I doubt it. Same for all the other list of characters that are often suspected of fulfilling this warning:  Soros, Gates, Fauci. They’re already hated by many. So who would truly trigger mass shock and awakening? I think the Pope would a good candidate and shouldn’t be ruled out. But that’s not what my intel sources are telling me. What I suspect, and what has been given the wink and the nod from my sources, AND what lines up with those videos below is none of than George W. Bush. For what you ask? 9/11/01. Goofy old GWB… The “lovable loser”. The dope who could never get his words right could trigger a “nucular” awakening. The Republicans already suspect the Democrats of selling out America, but so many Republicans are still asleep, still thinking the problems in our world are R vs. D. They’re not. The problems at Nationalists vs. Globalists…..Christians vs. Luciferians….people who LOVE America vs. people who say things like Jeremiah Wright said about America (which I will not reprint here). So what do you think? Will this be the even that marks the great awakening? Is it coming soon? Is that what was in those envelopes?

Seven years later after the infamous George Bush Sr. funeral and everyone is back in the same room doing what feels like almost an exact replay, this time for Jimmy Carter. So far though, there have been no mysterious envelopes passed out and the vibe feels much lighter. Notably, the first thing going viral is President Trump and President Obama sitting next to each other and chatting and laughing it up. Strange, in it’s own right and not what anyone expected. I wonder who arranged for these two to sit side-by-side?

According to reports, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody has emerged as the frontrunner to replace Marco Rubio in the U.S. Senate. President Trump nominated Rubio as secretary of state in his administration and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis must appoint a replacement. Although signs point to Moody for the role, DeSantis hasn’t finalized a decision. Report: Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody is the current frontrunner to be picked by DeSantis to replace Marco Rubio in the Senate. Via: Politico pic.twitter.com/DNAJhtAAxh — The Calvin Coolidge Project (@TheCalvinCooli1) January 8, 2025 From POLITICO: But all signs point to him leaning toward Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, with Rubio bound for the State Department under President-elect Donald Trump. And 10 people familiar with the selection process, all granted anonymity to discuss the decision freely, told Playbook that Moody was viewed as the leading contender for the seat. Moody has been a staunch DeSantis supporter — but also has been vocally supportive of Trump, particularly his positions on legal matters. She recently filed state charges against Ryan Routh, the man charged with attempting to assassinate Trump at his Florida golf course. The governor wouldn’t give away his thinking about the upcoming vacancy during a gaggle with reporters on Tuesday and sidestepped a question about Moody. But the Republican governor said that a “lot of research” had been done on potential candidates and he wanted someone who would help carry out Trump’s agenda and be strong on battling illegal immigration and reining in federal spending. “We want someone who is really able to deliver,” DeSantis said. Still, he appeared to be inviting the public (and Trump) to picture Moody in the role during a local swearing-in ceremony in Tampa on Tuesday, where she appeared alongside Trump loyalist and attorney general pick Pam Bondi. .@Polymarket – Who will replace Marco Rubio as Florida Senator?

Ron DeSantis will take a little more time to mull a replacement for Republican Sen. Marco Rubio, who has been tapped to serve as President-elect Donald Trump’s secretary of state. DeSantis on Tuesday said he will appoint a senator to complete the remaining two years of Rubio’s term around the time of Trump’s Jan. 20 inauguration. “I think we’ve got a number of great candidates, but I want to make sure that we know what we’re going to get,” DeSantis said during an appearance in Tampa. When Trump named Rubio as his pick for secretary of state, DeSantis said he expected to name a replacement by the beginning of January. Rubio needs to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate, and Senate Foreign Relations Committee is expected to hold a hearing on Jan. 15 — setting him up to be confirmed as early as Jan. 20. DeSantis reiterated Tuesday his appointee must be strong on immigration enforcement and support cutting the federal bureaucracy.

You could cut the tension with a knife at the Jimmy Carter Funeral. No, not with President Trump and President Obama, they were seen chatting and laughing it up and overall seeming to have a good time. Imagine that! Trump and Obama Cozy, Laughing and Chatting It Up At President Carter’s Funeral Obama and the guy who he said would never be President (and then went on to win 3 elections) and there's no visible tension. But in the "Party of Joy"? You could cut the tension with a knife! The Bidens and the Harrises (is that how you spell the plural of Harris?) can't even look at each other. Can you say "AWKWARD!"
