Something doesn’t add up, and I’m not buying the official story.
Today on Stinchfield, I dig into the sudden shift from Joe Kent, a man who once sounded the alarm on Iran, now suddenly backing away and denouncing the very conflict he previously warned about. What changed? And more importantly, who got to him?
Then there’s the eyebrow-raising appearance on Shawn Ryan’s show, a platform with well-documented ties to intelligence circles.
Coincidence or coordination?
Because when you connect the dots, a chilling possibility emerges: Was Kent positioned as part of a broader effort by the intelligence community to manipulate the narrative and ultimately undermine Donald Trump?
What if bad intel was deliberately fed into the system, designed to drag Trump into a geopolitical trap? A war meant to make him look reckless, outmatched, and dangerous on the world stage.
But here’s the twist they didn’t see coming: Trump did not fail. His leadership and the strength of the United States military flipped the script.
So now what?
A sudden reversal. A resignation. A retreat from the narrative.
Was Joe Kent’s exit a clean-up operation? A desperate attempt to salvage a plot that did not go as planned?
This is about more than one man. This is about the machinery behind the scenes—and whether the so-called deep state just got caught overplaying its hand.
Milei is taking on the Globalists and shielding Argentina from the WHO’s nefarious plans.
The libertarian Javier Milei fulfils another campaign promise.
The government of Argentina has finished the process of withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO), stating the need to maintain ‘health sovereignty’.
BREAKING NEWS: Argentina Officially WITHDRAWS From The World Health Organization
— Sergeant News Network (@sgtnewsnetwork) March 18, 2026
Despite severing ties with the organization, Argentina is assuring that ‘international cooperation in health will continue through bilateral and regional agreements’.
BREAKING — IT’S OFFICIAL: President Milei and Argentina have WITHDRAWN from the World Health Organization (WHO), following President Trump’s lead
EVERY self-respecting country should be doing the same.
“’Today Argentina’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) is effective, one year after the formal notification made by our country’, [Foreign Minister Pablo] Quirno said, recalling that the notification was made on 17 March 2025 to the UN secretary general.
‘In accordance with the provisions of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, the withdrawal takes place one year later’, he added.”
“The decision was justified […] by President Javier Milei and his team as a response to ‘profound differences’ with the WHO during the COVID-19 pandemic. The President called the agency ‘nefarious and the enforcement arm of what was the greatest experiment in social control in history’.”
Needless to say, Euronews spends quite a lot of editorial space for Milei’s critics who think his decision is an ‘aberration’.
If the Democrat-opposed SAVE America Act crashes and burns, President Donald Trump says he knows who will feel the heat.
“The Save America Act is one of the most IMPORTANT & CONSEQUENTIAL pieces of legislation in the history of Congress, and America itself,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Trump noted that the bill goes deeper than its provisions that would reform elections to require voter ID.
“NO MORE RIGGED ELECTIONS! Voter I.D., Proof of Citizenship, No Rigged Mail-In Voting (We are the only Country in the World that allows this!), No Men in Women’s Sports, No Transgender MUTILIZATION of our Children. 90% to 99% ISSUES ALL!” he wrote.
“Only sick, demented, or deranged people in the House or Senate could vote against THE SAVE AMERICA ACT. If they do, each one of these points, separately, will be used against the user in his/her political campaign for office – A guaranteed loss!” Trump wrote.
Trump closed with a message to voters.
“Get your Senators, REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT, to VOTE ‘YES’ ON ‘THE SAVE AMERICA ACT.’ I WILL NEVER (EVER!) ENDORSE ANYONE WHO VOTES AGAINST ‘SAVE AMERICA!!!’” he wrote.
As the Senate is poised to open debate on the bill, NBC News noted that the bill is popular across the board, with even 71 percent of Democrats supporting voter ID.
“It kind of feels like the only Americans not to support voter ID requirements are Democrats here in Congress,” GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune of South Dakota said.
But Democrats are playing the race card to rally opposition.
“The SAVE Act is nothing more than Jim Crow 2.0. It could disenfranchise millions of American citizens,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, a New York Democrat, said.
Thune said that likening it to Jim Crow “insults the overwhelming majority of Americans — including minorities — who look at voter ID and see nothing more than common sense.”
Even Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, who has issues with some parts of the legislation, said the race-baiting is out of line.
“If they really want to have a real conversation, and if they align it that 83 percent of Americans support showing basic ID — you know, I’m not going to tell 83 percent of Americans that they’re crazy, or they’re trying to suppress votes, or they’re Jim Crow,” Fetterman said. “I’m not going to describe people like that.”
As noted by Fox News, Thune ripped into Democrats, accusing them of a double standard, as the Senate convened on Tuesday.
“I haven’t heard Democrats complaining about the thousand other circumstances in which we require photo ID in this country. Democrats are aware that Americans have to show photo ID to get on a plane, right? And to start a new job, and when they head to the doctor’s office and to rent a car and to stay in a hotel. Heck, if you want to get a library card, you have to show a photo ID,” Thune said.
“The Democrats remember their 2024 convention, when attendees had to show a photo ID to get in? The senior Democrat senator from Georgia required photo ID to get into his recent rally,” Thune said. “Do Democrats hear themselves? Are they going to start boycotting libraries and airplanes and hotels for requiring a photo ID?”
“Are they going to explain why they are perfectly justified in their requiring a photo ID for their political rallies, but why it is somehow an intolerable burden to ask people to show a photo ID when they go to vote?” he said. “I expect they won’t. They’ll simply continue their mindless, partisan opposition to common sense ID requirements for federal elections.”
Marius Borg Hoiby is on trial for rape, assault and other offenses.
Epstein friend Crown Princess Mette-Marit and her son have caused massive reputational damage to the Norwegian royals.
The trial of the son of Norway’s crown princess is proceeding, and expected to end tomorrow (19), with the prosecution now arguing that he should be sentenced to seven years and seven months in prison.
He is charged with raping four women, as well as with domestic abuse and other crimes.
BREAKING:
The Norwegian Prosecutor’s Office has requested more than 7 years in prison for Marius Borg Høiby.

“Marius Borg Hoiby, 29, who joined the royal family when his mother Mette-Marit married Crown Prince Haakon in 2001, has pleaded not guilty to the most severe accusations against him, including those of rape, while admitting to some lesser charges.
The seven-week trial, which is due to end on Thursday, has transfixed the Nordic country, detailing Hoiby’s drug addiction, self-made videos of sexual encounters and more than 800 electronic messages entered into evidence.”
Royal trouble: Martius Borg and the Crown Princess Mette-Marit .
While her son faces years in prison, Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s had to apologize for her ‘poor judgment’ in keeping close ties with late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, even after he was convicted for sex crimes in 2008.
These two events badly hurt the overall popularity of the Norwegian monarchy.
Royalty hurting over mother and son scandals.
“Lead prosecutor Sturla Henriksboe on Wednesday set out the sentence he was seeking for the 40 charges against Hoiby, which included several counts of rape which investigators said happened when the alleged victims were sleeping or unconscious.
Hoiby pleaded guilty at the start of the trial to charges that carry lighter sentences, including offensive sexual behavior, driving too fast and driving without a valid license.”

Joe Biden unleashed an attack on President Trump during a ‘surprise’ appearance at a St. Patrick’s Day breakfast in Boston, Massachusetts, on Tuesday.
Biden accused the Trump Administration of carrying out violent acts against “immigrants” and “families.”
“Let’s not lose sight of the bonds we share with today’s immigrants, families who are enduring fear and violence at the hands … of our government,” Biden said.
“That’s not who we are. That’s not who America is,” Biden said, according to the Boston Globe.
Video:
Joe Biden has largely stayed out of the public eye after leaving office and revealing a cancer diagnosis.
Earlier this month, Joe Biden delivered a rambling speech at Jesse Jackson’s funeral.
Biden told the crowd that he’s smarter than everyone in the room.
But it’s okay to laugh at stuttering. I’m not being critical of you, but think about it. It’s the one place where people think you’re stupid. Oh, really? I’m hell of lot smarter than most of you,” Biden added.
Last month, Joe Biden slammed President Trump during a political event in South Carolina.
Joe Biden absurdly claimed that HE closed the border – NOT President Trump.
“The day I left office, border crossings in the United States were lower than the day that I entered that office and inherited from Trump. He’s – I won’t say it,” Biden said.
“On the day I left office, I handed Trump the strongest economy in the world! In the world! And that’s not hyperbole. That’s a fact!” Biden said even though near record inflation was crushing Americans in January 2025.

The SAVE America Act would require citizens to show both proof of citizenship and identification when voting. It would also severely restrict mail-in voting to the military and individuals who are medically unable to go to the polls. Everyone else would be required to show up in person, present documentation, and vote. The Act would not only prevent illegal aliens from voting but would also reduce voter fraud, much of which is tied to mail-in voting, and help reduce the casting of multiple votes by the same person.
It seems like common sense that, since voting is a right reserved for citizens, proof of citizenship should be a requirement. The 2020 election was one of the most contested in history, with much of the controversy associated with expanded mail-in voting, which allowed tens of millions of able-bodied people to send votes by post. These ballots could have been lost or otherwise manipulated, and the process effectively turned Election Day into election week, with final results coming days later.
The Commission on Federal Election Reform warned that voting by mail is “likely to increase the risks of fraud,” that “absentee ballots remain the largest source of potential voter fraud,” and that “vote-buying schemes are far more difficult to detect when citizens vote by mail.” The MIT Election Data and Science Lab has also noted that even scholars who argue fraud is generally rare agree that fraud with mail-in voting appears more frequent than with in-person voting.
Democrats claim that the bill would disenfranchise poor people, Black people, other minorities, and women. This claim hinges largely on the belief that people in these groups do not have both identification and proof of citizenship. Research claims that around 21 million Americans do not have documents proving their citizenship readily available, and 2.6 million Americans lack government-issued photo ID of any kind.
However, these numbers need further analysis. It may be that 2.6 million lack a photo ID, but there is no indication that they also lack a birth certificate as proof of citizenship. Many of these individuals may only need to obtain one document in order to vote.
Thirty-six states already require voters to present identification to vote at the polls on Election Day. Twenty-four of those states require photo identification, while twelve accept non-photo identification. The remaining fourteen states do not generally require voters to present identification to vote. Therefore, unless the 2.6 million without ID are living in those 14 states with no ID requirements, they are not currently voting.
The claim regarding the 21 million figure comes from a 2023 survey of 2,386 U.S. citizens conducted by the polling firm SSRS, which reported a margin of error of ±2.6 percent. Extrapolating from 2,386 respondents to a national figure of 21 million, representing roughly 9 percent of the entire voting-age citizen population, is standard survey methodology. However, the margin of error of ±2.6 percent applies to the percentage finding, not the raw population extrapolation.
The actual uncertainty in the 21 million figure is therefore considerably larger than the ±2.6 percent suggests, and the conclusion could be off by millions. In layman’s terms, the fact that the sample size is much smaller than the population it represents is a significant weakness of the survey. As a result, the findings should not be treated as definitively accurate.
Additionally, the Democrats and the mainstream media have intentionally misrepresented the results. They left out this phrase, “readily available.” The survey asked respondents whether they had documents proving citizenship “readily available,” not whether they possessed them at all. The Brennan Center itself acknowledges the documents “might be in the home of another family member or in a safety deposit box.”
Claims that the SAVE America Act is racist are nonsense because people of all races would be required to show identification and proof of citizenship.
Claims that it is misogynistic or disenfranchises women are similarly false, as everyone must show the same documents.
Claims that Republicans want to rig elections by keeping poor people from voting are also wrong, because there are more Republicans than Democrats earning below the median income level.
And as for preventing married women from voting, Republican women are more likely to marry a man and change their name than are Democrat women.
So, in the end, the only people who will be barred from voting will be illegal aliens, fraudsters, and people who value the right to vote so little that they cannot be bothered to obtain proper identification.
But while the England and Wales’ ‘Assisted Dying’ legislation has been stuck in the House of Lords, a much harder pushback is taking place across the Irish Sea, in Scotland.
Yesterday (17), Scottish lawmakers voted against legalizing assisted dying, in a crushing defeat for the campaigners for the ‘culture of death’.

“After much thought and consideration, I have decided to vote ‘No’ on the AssistedDying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill.
Firstly, there is a real fear that vulnerable people, including women who have suffered domestic abuse, could be coerced into taking their own lives.
Secondly, many disabled people fear that their lives will be devalued and could be pushed to take their lives.
Thirdly, the scope of this bill could be widened to include more illnesses and younger ages, as has been the case in other countries.
Instead of creating a pathway for people to end their lives, we should be strengthening the palliative care services that help them live their final days with dignity, comfort and support.
“Fifty-seven lawmakers in Scotland, whose parliament has devolved powers in certain areas, backed the bill. But 69 voted against and there was one abstention for a law to allow terminally ill, mentally competent adults, who have lived in Scotland for at least 12 months, to end their lives, the Scottish parliament said on X.”
Globalists at Reuters frame the situation as the United Kingdom ‘being behind Australia, Canada and some U.S. states’.
“MSPs voted by 69 to 57 to throw out the Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill, with one abstention, after several who previously supported it switched sides.
They were given a free vote on the Bill, meaning they could act in line with their consciences and were not whipped by their parties.”
“Dr Gordon Macdonald, chief executive of the Care Not Killing campaign against the legislation, said: ‘We are relieved that MSPs have decided not to back this legislation. We believe the Bill posed serious risks to the most vulnerable in society – including disabled people and those suffering from domestic abuse. It threatened the relationship between doctor and patient that is central to our NHS’.”

James Talarico, a Democrat Senate Candidate in Texas, is a false prophet. He should be ashamed of himself for trying to deceive Christian voters into thinking the Bible justifies abortion… and all kinds of other unbiblical practices.
This is not a new approach among supporters of America’s holocaust. They’ve been doing it from the beginning.
Well before Roe vs. Wade, the “Clergy Consultation Service” started. It was a group of clergy who counseled and referred people to doctors who were willing to perform abortions illegally, or to the few places where it was legal, using the clergy-penitent privilege of confidentiality to avoid prosecution.
By the time abortion was legalized, they had facilitated the killing of almost half a million babies. (Good work, men of God!)
To this day, the organization that fuels the kind of twisted arguments Talarico – who has been studying to become a minister – utilizes is the “Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice” (RCRC.org). They have Bible studies about why abortion is OK, liturgies to bless the practice, and more.
The hijacking of religion to justify baby-killing was actually the key strategy for those who started the abortion industry, and their ringleader who, in his own words, “uncaged the abortion monster in the United States,” Dr. Bernard Nathanson. I knew him personally, and as he told me and a group of clergy, “We would never have gotten away with what we did if you, the clergy, had been united, purposeful and strong.”
Dr. Nathanson wrote about this in his books after becoming pro-life, saying his team caught the Catholic Church asleep on the issue and stole it from them, misrepresenting Catholic teaching and sowing division between Church leaders and the people they teach.
This tactic continued, right up to the present, with prominent “Catholic” public officials who likewise misrepresent Catholic teaching. There’s a long history here, starting with John F. Kennedy’s declarations of absolute separation between the demands of religion and public office, continuing through NY Governor Mario Cuomo and candidate Geraldine Ferraro and their public disputes on abortion with Cardinal John O’Connor, and exemplified in our day with the declarations of Dick Durbin, Nancy Pelosi, and Joe Biden about how everything is just fine as they fervently practice their Catholic faith and serenely join it with even more fervent promotion of abortion without limits paid for with taxpayer dollars.
Talarico is in pretty good (or bad) company. He’d also enjoy meeting Curtis Boyd, retired late-term abortionist who is a former Baptist minister and says he performed abortions not despite his faith, but because of it. The RCRC must be proud!
To get a taste of how disgusting all this is, consider Talarico’s take on the Annunciation (Luke 1:26-38). Gabriel announces to the virgin Mary that she will be the mother of Jesus. Talarico says that because God gave her a choice, it is therefore OK, according to God’s Word, for women today to have the choice to kill their babies in the womb.
Excuse me, but there’s a difference between the choice to bring a child into the world (a perfectly valid freedom) and the choice to throw a child out of the world through killing.
The Annunciation has nothing to do with baby-killing. In fact, the passage shows exactly the opposite. Whereas the prochoice mentality says it is my choice that matters, Mary responds to the angel saying the opposite. “Be it done unto me according to your word.” It is God’s choice that matters.
Both Peter and Paul warn that we must not use freedom as an excuse to do what is wrong (see 1 Peter 2:16 and Galatians 5:13).
And this whole debate, moreover, isn’t about particular words and passages in the Bible. It’s about the overarching themes from the beginning to end of the Bible: God’s dominion over human life, the blessings of fertility, the dignity of human life in God’s image, the curse of child sacrifice, the victory of life over death, and the meaning of love (which says “This is my body, given for you,” not “This is my body, I can kill you).
Yet this makes no impression on James Talarico. But hey, he’s in a political campaign, not just a seminary.
It sure is foolish to try to extract an interpretation of Scripture that somehow the community that wrote, handed on and lived the Bible somehow missed over the millennia that they have spent opposing abortion.
James Talarico should stop trying to hijack the Word of Life to support the culture of death.
If he’s in favor of baby killing, he should just say so and defend it on its own merits, rather than twisting a sacred book which apparently, he respects far less than the rest of us do.
