“This was no small thing, to restore a republic after it had fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may have been that our task was impossible. Yet, if we did not try then how would we know it could not be done? And if we did not try, it most certainly would not be done. The Founders’ Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, would have been lost.”
“But I tell you this: We did not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we made with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from this day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.”

Praying !
Amen 🙏
So much happening so quickly.
Wholeheartedly agree that Jesus Christ is the only answer to the problems of our world.
More specifically one very recent and important problem that was addressed by Sundance is the leadership of the Senate.
I saw a possible solution to this posted in comments from Lucciane.com on an article in the Gateway Pundit. (https://www.lucianne.com/2024/11/13/do_not_be_fooled__the_foundation_of_our_nation_is_challenged_with_todays_secret_republican_senate_vote_139751.html #google_vignette)
Maybe there is an obvious impossibility to this idea, but it looks good to me.
Can anyone give feedback on it?

I wonder if Trump can bypass this crap by just refusing to talk to or deal with Cornyn or Thune? Talk to Scott ONLY and if Cornyn and Thune want to know what is going on, they can beg Scott for info. Trump ought to be able to cut the ground from under them by carefully playing hardball politics with them.

US Constitution, Article 1, Section 3.
“The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided.
The Senate shall chuse their other Officers, and also a President pro tempore, in the Absence of the Vice President, or when he shall exercise the Office of President of the United States.”
OK, in recent history, the VP has just folded up and taken a nap and let the Senate Majority Leader run things. Keying off #12’s excellent post, Vance should show up on day one and just RUN THE SENATE, and ignore Thune, work via Scott. Cut out the Deep State Uniparty folks. TAKE the power in the Senate and let them howl like the banshees that they are, and harumph all day.
The Constitution says President of the Senate. I think the President of the Senate should decide exactly what powers that entails.
And if you don’t like it, phone up the Supreme Court who will probably not take the call.
HARDBALL politics, all caps, and no slack. Cut Thune OUT, don’t just let him run things. When you mean to shake up the game, break out the rule book and read it carefully, then follow those rules. All the Senate “rules” are just made up crap and they just all voted to agree to do it that way. I’ll BET that the President of the Senate, if he was ballsy, could just say, “Yeah, well, I decided we won’t do it that way any more.” And they have NO Constitutional basis to bypass him.

If the nation is on the edge of the cliff and is about to fall off into the commie abyss, and if a leader has been chosen by the majority of the people to save the nation, then you use whatever is available.
And you don’t play nice. The commies don’t play nice. If you have ever been in been a fight with someone who fights dirty with no holds barred, you are not going to win that fight by using the nice rules.
I want to see every thing used to save this nation. No quarter given.
So, I want to see VP Vance sitting in his chair in the Senate on Day 1, running the Senate and getting every Trump appointee approved on Day 1.
There can be no apology given and once Matt Gaetz is approved as the new AG, I want President Trump to fire every US ATTORNEY. I WANT THE PRESIDENT TO HAVE A LIST OF THE ATTORNEYS WHO WILL BE REPLACING THE SCUM FIRED AND I WANT THEM APPROVED IMMEDIATELY SO GAETZ CAN START INDICTING THE CRIMINALS WHO BROKE EVERY LAW IN THE BOOK AND GAVE US THE MIDDLE FINGER WHILE DOING IT.
And if we can’t do this or won’t do this, then COME, JESUS, COME.
AMEN !!
SO SAY WE ALL!!
Amen !

CIA Officer Asif Rahman Charged with Leaking Classified Info on Israel’s Plan to Strike Iran
The FBI charged CIA officer Asif Rahman on Tuesday for leaking highly classified documents about Israel’s plan to retaliate against Iran for its missile attack earlier this year.
The incident underscores concern the CIA needs reform due to the perception by critics it often allegedly operates outside the scope of the national interest.
The New York Times’s Adam Goldman and Seamus Hughes first reported the charges against Rahman, who the FBI arrested on two counts of violating the Espionage Act:
The documents were prepared by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, which analyzes images and information collected by U.S. spy satellites. It conducts work in support of clandestine and military operations.
…
The information in the documents is highly classified and details interpretations of satellite imagery that shed light on a possible strike by Israel on Iran. They began circulating last month on the Telegram app. U.S. officials have previously said that they did not know from where the documents had been taken, and that they were looking for the original source of the leak.
Court documents said Mr. Rahman held a top secret security clearance with access to sensitive compartmentalized information, which is typical for many C.I.A. employees who handle classified materials.

BREAKING: Federal records reveal the CIA analyst accused of leaking Top Secret intel about Israel’s plans to bomb Iran in a retaliatory strike is a Democrat who gave $8,533 to Joe Biden’s campaign.

Blinken Assures NATO Biden Will Funnel Billions to Ukraine Prior to Trump Return
Outgoing Secretary of State Antony Blinken began a farewell visit to the headquarters of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in Brussels, Belgium, on Wednesday in which he repeatedly insisted that President Joe Biden would “push every dollar out the door that we have at our disposal” to Ukraine.
Blinken met with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte and Ukraine’s newly minted foreign minister, Andrii Sybiha, asserting that the Biden’s administration secured $8 billion in Ukraine spending in September and would continue to find way to supply Ukraine with “the air defenses it needs, that has the artillery it needs, that has the armored vehicles it needs” to fight Russia.
It’s like they have a 10K Dead Person goal before January 20th.
“It’s ambitious, but I think we can get there before peace negotiations start early next year in the next administration,” Blinked said of the goal.
Muslim CIA Official Charged With ‘Leak’ of Israeli Attack Plans on Iran
Why did he have access to classified information?
https://www.frontpagemag.com/muslim-cia-official-charged-with-leak-of-israeli-attack-plans-on-iran/
Rahman was operating in Cambodia. Iran has extensive relations with Cambodia.
Cambodia is a vector for Iran’s drug trafficking and Iranians enjoy visa-free travel to Cambodia.
So Iran might have actually compromised a top CIA official operating in its arena
Rahman should normally not have had access to intel involving Iran.
He might have though if he had been tasked with keeping an eye on Iranian efforts in Cambodia
Asif W. Rahman, from the sound of his name, a Pakistani Muslim, is the CIA official charged with passing Israel’s attack plans that made its way to Iran
Some questions
1. Was Rahman born in the US or was he an immigrant?
2. Why did a CIA official in Cambodia have access to Israeli attack plans on Iran?
3. Why did the CIA provide top clearance to a Muslim who appeared to oppose US foreign policy?
4. Who moved Rahman up through the career ladder?
5. Was he part of any Muslim or third world ‘affinity’ groups within the CIA?
https://nitter.poast.org/Sultanknish/status/1856756243270177094#m
Charlotte99: I’d say the Rahman thing is BS and the real leak was from one of the usual Biden White House crew, and that’s if there ever was a “leak.”

Poor Fauxchontas. She needs a beer.
Ah, I had almost forgotten the I’m gonna get me a beer moment.
She only drinks AOC Light.
Might I recommend the “Simply Spiked, Cranberry” flavor?
Personally, I think it tastes better than beer.
Snowman and Bandit might disagree.
Personally, I like Angry Orchard’s Crisp Apple malted beverage.
Princess Lie-awatha was just re-elected to her Senate seat. Living in Boston but proud to say I NEVER voted for the Fake Indian. I used to be embarrassed to say she was my Senator….
but I realized she is an embarrassment to herself.
The job is so huge, Manhattan Project size. it requires 2 people.
I’d score her screed 1 out of 1024.
There is so much waste, one person cannot handle it all.
Even with Ron Paul… as a brain trust or 3rd Musketeer the task is Herculean.
She knows it’s the work of one person exactly how?
What a nasty beotch.
She had a chance to do something like this, didn’t bother, and now she sits on the sidelines and jeers at the men in the arena.
She forgot to tell you that neither is drawing a salary.
Doubtful. Apparently the gubt requires you must be paid. You can donate it back yo the gubt though.
Ask President Trump. He knows.
Hopefully this is one of the many things President Trump will FIX. Then we know who the REAL public servants are.
No, Liz, it is two people to do the work of 1 president, 1 vice president, 50 senators, and 435 congressmen.
That is 487 people multiplied by the last 60 years that the whole of your group has been effing the American taxpayers. That was 29,220 positions and opportunities to do what your swore in your oath of office which is to represent us instead of stealing from us to enrichen yourselves.
If it is so easy for one person to do this, Liz, then why did you not do this any time in your illustrious career of “public service”?
Hey Fauxcahontas,
IF CONgress ever did their jobs and passed actual budgets like they are required to do ANNUALLY, at least 30 days before Sep 30 of each year, we might not need a DOGE.
However, the crappy CONgress has not turned in a budget since 2008. All we get are spending bills so big no one has/takes time to read them before they pass them, and continuing resolutions passed just in time for you all to go home for Thanksgiving and Christmas, recess after recess, and celebrate the PURE PORK AND GRIFT you saddled us with every single year.
Maybe you’ve been on the reservation since then and are not aware of this, but we the American taxpayers certainly are. We actually have to balance our budgets and look at the checkbook daily. So do businesses and pretty much everyone else on the planet.
BTW, I remember when your hero, The Real Kenyan, appointed what he called a “Super Committee” (Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction) of 12 CONgressional elites to fix this problem and also to shave at least $1.5 trillion off the massively swelling deficit.
Does anyone remember what happened? We got a lot of hot air and NOTHING ELSE. How much did/has that cost us?
Some of those creepy do-nothing idiots went on to be hired as Secretary of State and Climate Czar in subsequent DIM maladministrations (Hint: KERRY/LURCH).

Ironic that we now have two foreigners cutting US spending…what am I missing?
Other than that they are not foreigners, you mean?
Agreed. Even among the typically considered more informed… the up doots for that was astonishing.
Lawdy, I can’t believe so many people went for that. 16? Dang y’all…
Elon Musk was born in Pretoria, South Africa, on June 28, 1971. He became a U.S. citizen in 2002, after relocating to the United States in 1995 to attend college and eventually start his career in technology.
Vivek Ramaswamy, born in 1985, is an American entrepreneur and author. As a native-born U.S. citizen, he would have acquired citizenship at birth.
Therefore, as of the announcement date (November 13, 2024), Elon Musk had been a U.S. citizen for approximately 22 years (since 2002), and Vivek Ramaswamy had been a U.S. citizen his entire life, as a native-born citizen.
Foreigners is not the correct word choice.
Maybe two people who only just arrived to the American bureacracy, as neither has parents who were born here, something like that?
Two men who did not have anything at all to do with creating this mess are now cleaning it up?
In a way, both are outsiders. Maybe that’s the irony here.
They are getting help from someone who couldn’t be more of an insider, the venerable Ron Paul, so he is the voice of wisdom and experience providing guidance to the two Young Turks.
Both Vivek and Elon dunking on Elizabeth Warren was salty, she decided to go for more by attacking Trump’s choice of Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the “Department of Government Efficiency” (DOGE).
https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2024/11/13/warren-on-doge-response-by-vivek-and-elon-n2181969
I recall Warren bashing private citizen Elon Musk as a tax cheat or something like that, of course with nothing to back it up.
He should have sued her into oblivion, except she may have had immunity if she was saying it from the floor.
I just had a glance at headlines while looking something up, and I see that Warren has been working flat out to make Elon, Vivek, and Trump appear corrupt along with their new department.
Trump’s ‘Already Breaking The Law’: Elizabeth Warren Details ‘Illegal Corruption’
“Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is accusing President-elect Donald Trump of violating a key ethics law for incoming administrations.
“Donald Trump and his transition team are already breaking the law,” she tweeted Monday on X. “I would know because I wrote the law.”
Warren linked to a CNN article detailing how Trump and his team have yet to sign an ethics pledge intended to prevent conflicts of interest.”
https://www.yahoo.com/news/trumps-already-breaking-law-elizabeth-044013879.html
She must know he’s not back in office just yet.
I would like an explanation of how illegal corruption differs from legal corruption.
She’s scared to death of this team, which is being very well received by the public.
This is a great interview! Vivek outlines exactly how they will purge the fat and corruption from the various bureaucracies/fiefdoms. Clue: Think Chevron deference.

Is John Dilliger’s death-mask, fully-suited faux corpse still displayed in a glass case near the FBI entrance? Pops took me there in the ’70s while on gov’t business and the tour guide was so proud to show us kids how they’d gunned him down, and gave a nice, long look.
At least keep that, right?

Whoever put that list together purposefully left him off. He is worth somewhere between 7 and 10 billion.
It’s not true, musk said on Rogan that there are about 20 chino and other eastern billionaires with more money than him
Those list never really include the true top. Let’s face it the top 10 spots would have a Rothschild sir name.

P’nut the squirrel was negative for rabies, officials say, as owner threatens suit
P ’nut, an Instagram-famous squirrel that was seized and euthanized by New York state and entered the political fray before the election, was negative for rabies, state officials said Tuesday.
The squirrel’s owner, Mark Longo, told NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo on Tuesday that he is filing a “very big” lawsuit and demanding answers after his squirrel and raccoon, Fred, were seized in a warrant search and later euthanized.
Chemung County Executive Chris Moss held a press conference Tuesday showing certificates that both P’nut and Fred tested negative for rabies.
“I realize people want to vent. But at the end of the day I think you have to realize the seriousness of humans contracting rabies,” Moss said. “This is protocol from the state turned down to the county.”

They caused the animals to fight in their own self defense
A$$hats
Yes they did, and they KNEW the animals did not and could not have rabies as they had been effectively quarantined.
They also didn’t follow “protocols”(and I am so sick of hearing “protocols” used as an excuse for doing stupidly evil things) when they didn’t use protective gear when handing the pets.
When we took our feral cat to the veterinarian they put on heavy gloves in order to handle him, even though he had been sedated.
I think they are LYING about being bitten, and even if they aren’t (which they ARE), can they explain just how they got bitten?
Why did they have any contact with the squirrel at all?
This was about a piece of paper, and they went storming through the house.
This idiot in Chemung County is trying to use evidence that the pets didn’t have rabies as proof that the people who did this were in danger of rabies so they had to kill the pets.
This isn’t proof that the squirrel bit anybody. Which it did not.
Expecting pardon from Trump, libertarian writer pleads guilty in Capitol riot case
A North Carolina man who pleaded guilty Tuesday to unlawfully entering the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 says he’s “very confident” a presidential pardon will spare from him sentencing in his case.
Steve Baker, of Raleigh, North Carolina, spoke with WUSA9 on the day of the riot about the events he witnessed. Baker was inside the Capitol for approximately 37 minutes, during which time he entered an office suite used by then-Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and witnessed efforts to resuscitate Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt after she was shot while climbing through a window into the Speaker’s Lobby. Surveillance footage used as evidence in the trial of another defendant, Daniel Egtvedt, of Maryland, showed Baker standing just a short distance away while medics were working on Babbitt in the Hall of Columns.

PETA issued a rather weak statement, about a week after the incident:
“… “In a perfect world, Peanut and Fred would have been brought to a licensed rehabber and released back into their natural habitat. But PETA laments that, after being a part of a family since infancy, Peanut and Fred’s lives were taken from them,” Catie Cryar, PETA’s media relations manager, told The Dallas Express.
Later, she followed up, “There is always a humane solution, and it’s a pity that New York officials didn’t find one here.”
This statement comes after the organization had initially received criticism for perceived inaction on the matter.” …

You are wrong. They are correct. Business confidence is a self-fulfilling prophecy.
“If you think it will, or if you think it won’t, either way, you’re right. “
And, “If you think you can, or if you think you can’t, your’re right either way.”
Been there and done that in the self-fulfilling prophecy department. It’s why my college grades suck, and when I went back for a teaching credential and took calculus-based physics as an elective, I have a 3.94 (an A- in that physics course).

Gaetz resigns from Congress after AG nod
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) will resign from Congress “effective immediately” after being nominated to serve as attorney general by President-elect Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) announced on Wednesday.
The resignation — which was announced hours after Gaetz received the attorney general nod — was described by Johnson as a way to speed up the process of filling the House Republican’s seat to lessen the impacts of being one member down in the narrow GOP majority next year.

We need to know why they voted for Garland and gave him gushing praise at the Confirmation Hearing but won’t vote for Matt Gaetz????
US ambassador says Mexico ‘closed the doors’ on security cooperation and denies its violence problem
MEXICO CITY (AP) — U.S. Ambassador Ken Salazar lashed out Wednesday at Mexico’s failure to accept aid in the fight against drug cartels, claiming the country “closed the doors” on security cooperation.
In a press conference, Salazar launched his harshest criticism yet of rampant violence, police corruption and the Mexican government’s mistaken attitude that “there is no problem.”
Salazar cited violence in recent days in the northern state of Sinaloa as an example. Sinaloa state police chief Gerardo Mérida said Wednesday authorities found a pile of between five and seven bodies on a roadside there, but were still counting body parts to see how many there were.
“There is a pile of various bodies, with what we have found we have identified five bodies, but some are in pieces, they have been dismembered, there are mentions of seven,” said Mérida.
Sinaloa’s embattled governor, Ruben Rocha, seemed to typify Mexico’s attitude when he said Tuesday —after a similar number of dead bodies were dumped on roadsides – that “we’re doing well, we’ll get over this soon.”
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/us-ambassador-says-mexico-closed-the-doors-on-security-cooperation-and-denies-its-violence-problem/ar-AA1u2sc9
No violence in Mexico? Mexico clearly does not want to take on the cartels. What happens when the US declares them terrorist organizations?

Excerpt:
MEXICO CITY, May 31 (Reuters) – Mexico’s election is now the bloodiest in its modern history after a candidate running for local office in central Puebla state was murdered on Friday at a political rally, taking the number of assassinated candidates to 37 ahead of Sunday’s vote.

Republicans win 218 US House seats, giving Donald Trump and the party control of government
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans have won enough seats to control the U.S. House, completing the party’s sweep into power and securing their hold on U.S. government alongside President-elect Donald Trump.
A House Republican victory in Arizona, alongside a win in slow-counting California earlier Wednesday, gave the GOP the 218 House victories that make up the majority. Republicans earlier gained control of the Senate from Democrats.
With hard-fought yet thin majorities, Republican leaders are envisioning a mandate to upend the federal government and swiftly implement Trump’s vision for the country.

What’s the big takeaway? Elections matter.
Taking President Trump’s advice to get up and get our lazy asses off the couch and vote mattered.
The MAGA Movement has given us all faith in the election process once again. The disenfranchised voter is no longer disenfranchised. Every vote counts.
How is that for restoring our Republic?
President and team are back in office. It has been a slow and steady process.
We can now see who stole the diamonds. The citizens are ready.
We have spoken loud and clear by showing up. We showed up at hundreds of Rallies. We showed up at the voting booth. We are now in a place where everyone is ready to see who stole the diamonds.
It’s a necessary part of the restoration process.
“We caught then. We caught then all. No one else could have done that but me. We caught the Swamp. We also had the best economy going. Let’s see what happens.”
I think we are going to finally “See what happens.”
The phrase “Drill, Baby Drill” just took on a whole new meaning. Liquid Gold indeed!
Happy Festivus! The BEST is yet to come!
What did the House and Senate do when we had the bicameral majority during President Trump’s first term?
Russiagate.
Gaetz resigned from the House today.
I guess that brings us down to 217?
Real Clear Politics has us at 2019 — so 2018 with Gaetz resignation—but Waltz, Stefanic will have to replaced by Special Elections = 216 in January
Pete Hegseth Was Removed from Biden’s Inauguration, Labeled ‘Extremist’
During an appearance on a podcast hosted by Shawn Ryan, a former Navy Seal and CIA contractor, Hegseth claimed he had been due to help guard Joe Biden’s 2020 presidential inauguration but was ordered to stand down because he had an “extremist” tattoo.
He said: “I was deemed an extremist because of a tattoo by my National Guard unit in Washington D.C. and my orders were revoked to guard the Biden inauguration…
“My commander called me a day before tepidly and was like Major you can just stand down. We don’t need you, we’re good. I’m like what do you mean, everybody’s there. He said like no no no…he couldn’t tell me.”
Hegseth added that when writing his book “he reached out to somebody in the unit who could confirm with 99.9 percent certainty, because he was in the meetings and on the emails, nope someone inside the D.C. Guard trolled your social media, found a tattoo, used it an excuse to call you a white nationalist, an extremist, and you were specifically by name orders revoked to guard the inauguration because you were considered a potential threat.”
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/pete-hegseth-was-removed-from-biden-s-inauguration-labeled-extremist/ar-AA1u03oZ
Interesting. Pete Hegseth, soon to be in charge of the whole military shooting match, was ordered to stand down from protecting “Not All There” Joe Biden’s inauguration.
“We the People” tattooed on his arm is bad but dressing up like RuPaul is good. Okay.
That’s rich.
For every serviceman or government employee purged by the Obama/Biden regimes, the ones with patriotic tattoos, a belief in God, or a DJT supporter, I would offer them re-employment.
I bet they would welcome a chance right the ship.
The same holds true for those purged with the “vaccine” mandate.
I completely agree.
Many simply “retired early” so it is difficult to capture just how many were adversely affected.
Unfortunately, the ones who retired early are probably “exactly the type of people” we want training the next generation. Such a lost opportunity. Such a disgrace.
Pete
Pete and his arm tattoo are a MAJOR improvement over this:
Does Lloyd Austin come from France, too ??
No, but he sure looks like he ate mass quantities
For a genuine empty suit Austin sure is FAT!
Does anyone else think of Spaceballs when they see this picture? That is such great comedy!
Dark Helmet !!
Darth
What an idiot. What a disgrace. Aftermative Action’s ultimate result!
The tattoo is a cross on his chest. There is a video interview where he discussed it and the removal from duty that day.
Who is going to be Press Secretary? Wonder if it will be Tucker. I will be so happy when Brillo Bobber is gone. Gotta give her credit she hung in there w/Joey.
Tucker wouldn’t be the best choice, IMO… but it sure would be fun to see him come out in a Mopple Top wig on the first day…
If Arizona does what apparently Arizona does, Kari Lake would be free. I can see her handlong the press.

Special Counsel Jack Smith plans to resign, file report before Trump can fire him: report

Jack who?
…if that’s his real name!
Who is going to be Health Secretary?
These people need to be fired. This is horrible, they have no shame, ethics. So unprofessional. It isn’t just in the psychotherapy world, it is in mainstream medical practices. I have personally felt their bias when they learned I wasn’t vaxx’d and most definitely was treated differently. It was actually scary at times when I needed surgery.

I believe this confirms the popular saying that liberals have a psychological disorder.
Has anyone floated doing a dual Directorship at HHS, like with Elon and Vivek at DOGE?
HHS is a big job….. what if Dr. Ben Carson and RFK, Jr. might do the same thing. Maybe would do well together – better than separately??? Ben’s coolness and wisdom, and bobby fire and statistics might make a mighty great office 😉
hmmmm
I’d heard that Dr. Ben may be slated for HUD again, but I’d agree with you on that, an HHS dual Directorship.
Someone on another social media site pointed out that there is a bust of RFK on the table behind Biden. Hidden message?

Social media erupts after Biden appears jubilant in Trump White House meeting
https://www.foxnews.com/media/social-media-erupts-after-biden-appears-jubilant-trump-white-house-meeting
it appeared to have been put there haphazardly because it was not setting straight. Last minute thought?
From my small branch: The battle lines are being drawn. The Old Republican Party are circling their wagons. The New Republican Party is gathering their forces. This is going to be an epic confrontation.
Watching Fox News after President Trump was named the likely winner last Tuesday night, the panel went around speaking their thoughts. Funny thing was, the “Right” representatives were just as shocked and dismayed as those on the “Left”. Except for one, Charlie Kirk.
What he said on air that night was that this was the changing of the OLD guard, that this was the new Republican Party, one for ALL of the citizens of the USA, and that includes all sectors of the population. It was now the Party of the People.
This has been proving out with the voting results. Increases across the board with everyone, and just about everywhere.
President Trump is now poking them with a stick with his choices, and he is itching for a fight, BIGLY. They tried to kill him. God bless him and his family.
This is the Big Ugly. And from my view, think we have it this time.
Never forget…they tried to kill him twice….
He took that bullet for us…literally ‘standing in the way’…
We Owe Him Bigly.
Tapper agrees DOJ needs to ‘clean house’ as Trump eyes reform: ‘Help restore trust’

Defund and investigate all the NGO’s.
Yes please!
I always knew that these NGOs were not a good thing, and not what they pretended to be.
What I only just found out is that they are funded by use through no-bid contracts. That right there should have raised alarm a long time ago.
No-bid contracts are for extreme circumstances only. When they are used routinely, they are nothing but corruption.
We’re paying for our own invasion of illegal aliens!!! No surprise to anyone here!!!
It’s just more ways to funnel money to private “religious” groups which eventually get funneled back to their coffers with the bonus of ruining this country.
At least four DC Federal Judges need to be Impeached for incompetence! Judge Chutkan and three DC Appeals Court Judges ruled incorrectly that President Trump has ABSOLUTELY NO IMMUNITY FROM PROSECUTION for actions he took as President of the United States.
These four bimbos in black robes weren’t even close in their decision and should be removed!
“Female vitriol” must have been on sale somewhere.

Why do you suppose Trump nominated Matt Gaetz for AG?
Sundance posted earlier his thoughts on the Gaetz AG nomination. I have a different opinion.
Let me start by assuming what might happen if Gaetz is confirmed? That’s where the clarity exists.
As Attorney General, Matt Gaetz will have ZERO problems raiding Garland at his home with a SWAT team in the wee hours of the morning. For what you may ask? Retribution?
He will arrest Garland for his contempt of Congress charges. The same contempt charges and violations of the law that Garland’s DOJ sent Bannon and Navarro to prison over. Mayorkas will be arrested, too.
Christopher Wray would be next.
Sounds good to me but my husband doubts he would do any of it.
I don’t think Gaetz will rush to raid and arrest these people. He will investigate and get the truth re: Russia Hoax, j6 and other serious matters- the bogus cases against Trump, many things.
This isn’t about revenge. We need to restore law and order and de-politically weaponize the DOJ FBI CIA etc. That’s what Trump wants too.
How about this?
“Meanwhile, the House Ethics Committee’s years-long investigation into Matt Gaetz over allegations of sexual misconduct ended after the lawmaker resigned from Congress.
The Gateway Pundit reported on the Ethics Committee’s revival of the junk allegations against Gaetz, even after the Biden DOJ exonerated Gaetz of criminal wrongdoing and dropped the charges in February 2023.
The investigation was reopened in 2023 as Gaetz ramped up challenges to former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who was later ousted by Gaetz’s Motion to Vacate the chair. Later, when Gaetz threatened to bring a Motion to Vacate against McCarthy in October 2023, McCarthy’s RINO allies began threatening to expel Gaetz based on the Committee’s investigation.
Matt Gaetz has denied the allegations.”

Contempt of Congress charges should be the least of the problems they face!
The Deep State War Against Donald Trump Begins
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/11/the_deep_state_war_against_donald_trump_begins.html
Begins? “It’s going to get…?”
As compared to the past 9+ years?
I understand President Trump has a new name for the Deep State. They are now referred to as “The Deep Sixed”.
No one announces their move beforehand. Especially anyone trained in the art of war or the art of deals.
Let me correct the headline, if I may…?
“The Real War Against We the People has commenced”
Step out on Hullabaloo! Look at those crowds.
BTW…I bought an Aggie CD in 2006…for I think 12 dollars…it now goes for 45 dollars on Amazon…
The real president resuming his role.
Oh, made me tear up…
CNN data guru astonished by Trump’s performance in cities: ‘I would have never thought possible’
Excerpt:
CNN data expert Harry Enten suggested that President-elect Donald Trump may be the best Republican candidate of the 21st century, because of how he improved with voters in urban areas.
“It comes as this nation‘s biggest and most liberal cities are part of the reason why we have seen this push to right, moving right, including ultra-liberal San Francisco. Its progressive Mayor London Breed voted out, replaced with Daniel Lurie, my guest in a moment,” she said.
Enten spoke about the “red invasion” people are seeing on electoral maps, and how they are a clear departure from even Trump’s 2016 victory.

Danica Patrick Reveals How Much The Trump Team Paid Her, And It Shows Exactly Why The Dems Lost
https://www.outkick.com/culture/danica-patrick-reveals-how-much-trump-team-paid-her-shows-exactly-why-dems-lost
Posted with apologies!
Lemme guess……..how many (and which) of Trumps picks so far are on the Senate approved list as confirmable? Maybe Rubio?
Of course, I’m being facetious here as in F@#× the Senate.
Yup
“on the Senate approved list as confirmable”
I agree. That is how it’s been. I believe that is part of the old way of thinking.
I believe those old ways and that “Old Guard” are in the past.
“Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt — now, when I say “corrupt,” I’m talking about totally corrupt — political establishment, with a new government controlled by you, the American people.”
The people are rising up and tossing out the Old Guard and all of their corrupt control schemes.
This is where we are now. We are now in a new era.
My thoughts have been on one thought…from the perspective of the average housewife type…all y’all know I am pure MAGA…but govt. corruption is a business…and ‘business’ has business plans and business models.
While joyful, we must prepare for the longer term…if they cheat and win in ’28…the subsequent regime will be far worse and the economics more horrendous. They lost control of us and they will want it back…
The Bribem admin was punishment for electing Trump in ’16…and in ’20…
Am hoping for policies that will negate and block the painful economics we went thru and that they, positive changes for We The People, will be much harder to change and hurt us….all of us.
And the last four years have been brutal on families and average Americans…including average lib type citizens…
Know yourself…know your enemy. We have a new era…it must be made to be sustainable, because we will be punished again, and far more harshly.
I have a bottle of Kentucky Bourbon…Mitch, ya want it?
God Bless Donald J. Trump.
I guess my point is being missed.
I believe the whole point of President Trump’s and the fellow Patriot’s movement is and has been about eliminating “they”.
The Deep State is being destroyed through this entire operation. There is no more “they”/will be no more “they”.
Look around. Who’s the “they”.
This operation is way bigger than four year elections. It’s way bigger than politics. It’s a global operation to eradicate a system that has been in place for a long, long time. An imprisonment/enslavement if you will.
“He who controls the money…”
Start there and work your way down. That’s how big this is.
100% Agree.
“Trump’s transition lawyer Mark Paoletta demands DOJ investigation into Jack Smith”….
Oh my….might just happen. Trump made recess appointments an issue in the Senate Majority election. I am also seeing things out there that say the President can trigger a recess constitutionally.
