Do any Treepers know what’s happened to attorney Jeff Clark?
I miss his insight during these turbulent times.
He went to CFPB, apparently.
https://www.americanbanker.com/news/cfpbs-latest-hires-include-trump-doj-veteran-jeffrey-clark
That is a paywalled article, but it says enough. 🙂
Thanks for that. Was always hoping our President would find a spot for him.
Particularly after lawfare went as hard as they could to break him.
One man’s turbulence, is another man’s smooth sailing.
Reactive and proactive…
Equal, yet opposite perspectives.
There’s no substitute for experience.

The fallout of the flagrant corruption and waste of taxpayer money exposure has led to talk of an actual inspection of Fort Knox which has not happened in 50 years.
I expect this to escalate quickly since there is very little trust in government at this point but also due to the fact that London has been getting drained of gold to New York.
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2025-01-30/lbma-cant-deliver-gold-supply-chain-breaks
‘The Bank of England holds about 400,000 gold bars and is the second-largest custodian of the precious metal after the New York Federal Reserve.’
https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/commodities/gold-price-bullion-bank-england-london-new-york-trump-tariffs-2025-2
Now if there was any issue in an audit of Fort Knox how long do you think till the Federal Reserve would be under a full scale audit and fighting for its life?
There is a reason for all that gold going to New York and I suspect it’s deeper than the concern over tariffs.
Make America Liquid Again!
😉
I know nothing about BIG investment funds.
Does the proposed Sovereign Wealth Fund President Trump briefly discussed as part of an economic tool, require hard assets to back it?
And if so, whose?
Not entirely sure.
Possibly our natural resources to some degree.
Which worries me because the same people that get rich trading bets far disconnected from the real world have intended to create a market of everything where even the very air we breathe would be monetized, and, of course, we would scarcely be in the club that would control it.
I’m hoping this is an effort to get in front of such a scheme and cut it off, as well as creating a foundation for erasing our debt and destroying the Foreign Slavery Abomination known as the FED.
I have the same concerns. I was curious about the connection to what is supposed to be gold stores in Fort Knox.
Several Zerohedge articles today on using our gold as SWF. Would be used to pay off high interest debt.
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2025-02-17/us-revaluing-gold-hopefully-not-1973
Thank you. I appreciate the info!.
Kors Jansen of “The Bullion” did a FOIA request for the audits of Fort Knox that took place between 1974-1986. The records for 7 of the 13 audits performed are missing? Is this due to incompetence, malfeasance, or something worse.
“Gold Audit in 50 Years, Taps Elon Musk’s DOGE for Verification — FOIA Requests Show 7 Out of 13 Previous Audits Reportedly Missing”
Excerpts:
The most recent comprehensive audit of the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox began in 1974 and continued until 1986, during which approximately 97% of the gold was audited and placed under official joint seals.
Why would they only audit 97% of the gold?
The Office of Inspector General, responsible for gold audits, only had access to 4 of the 13 reports.
In short, the US National Archives could not extradite the 7 audit reports I requested. The reports were not present at the National Archives, the OIG or at the Treasury Department. I doubt an attempt to “submitting a FOIA request directly to the Treasury Department” will bring me anything; likely it will be a waste of time as I had already contacted all possible government departments separately, which could not deliver me the reports I was looking for despite none of them was unwilling to help me. I will, however, submit a couple of new FOIA’s at the US government regarding gold audits.

Reza Pavlavi, – a man with admitted ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a U.S.-designated Foreign Terrorist Organization invited to speak at CPAC?
Why is CPAC, which has been resolute on opposition to hereditary rule, foreign elitism, and centralized power; fraternizing with Pavlavi’s monarchical dictatorship in Iran? Pavlavi is NOT the voice of Iranian opposition
Reza Pavlavi didn’t try to put Donald Trump in prison for 90 years, steal our 2020 election, imprison 2,000 J6 protestors, investigate Catholic moms and he isn’t my enemy!

Bald eagle found in northwest suburbs may have died from bird flu, expert says
[…]There’s no way to know exactly how the eagle got sick, but it’s likely the bird consumed infected prey
[…]Many more eagles likely have died from the disease but weren’t tested, experts say.
[…]A bald eagle found last month in Hinsdale was euthanized because it was believed to have been sick from the disease
https://archive.ph/T3up8
Yep, even eagles die someday @
“May have” and “likely” and ” believed to have been” are not definitive terms.
Birds die.
PCR test is not an accurate diagnostic tool. Neither is quessing.
Are they going to kill all of the bald eagles now?
CBS News is now warning that a bird flu pandemic could be on the horizon.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture has granted conditional approval for a bird flu vaccine for chickens.
CBS explains that bird flu is already affecting mammals, and humans can contract it through close contact with infected animals.
CBS warns that simultaneous infection with human and bird flu could create a hybrid strain, triggering a pandemic.
Is anyone trusting this science?
Ignore whatever propaganda the Communist Bullsh## Station tries to feed you.
I don’t believe a word they say. What does CBS know about bird flu? NOTHING. They are just trying to scare the public. they’ve been working up to this for several weeks.
Chickens don’t fly.
Hell no.
They are desperately following a script written before the election.
Furthermore, I consider that the Derp State MUST be destroyed!!
NO!
Oh sorry. That was my outside voice. 🤭
They’re trying to get VAXX into the food supply since you won’t take it in the arm.

NO
See B.S.
I just cannot take a word they say seriously. Especially after Margaret Brennan had the audacity to say that “Feee Speech” caused the M*rder of 8,000,000+ people during Germany’s reign of terror in WWII.
I call that stupidity, not audacity. 😆
I have a small flock of egg layer chickens that’s starting to get old. I recently bought an incubator so I can hatch my own eggs. I guess an added plus is that it gives me some independence and self reliance.
The US department of Agriculture has granted conditional approval for a bird flu vaccine for chickens and now a bird flu pandemic could be on the horizon.
Imagine that. 🤔

Road to Grok 3:
How Elon Musk and xAI team built the “smartest AI on earth” – and what happens now
Musk and xAI team, which boasts several “big-ticket” talent including chief engineer Igor Babuschkin (who was formerly associated with Google DeepMind) continue to make “rapid” strides with Grok.
[…]The goal—or mission statement, rather—was to understand the universe by giving “humanity” easy access to advanced tools for questioning, reasoning, and more
[…]The makers say they are using reinforcement learning to give it advanced reasoning
[…] users can expect some imperfections initially.

Boat repairs….any guess how long to finish. 🙂
The Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75) arrived at U.S. Naval Support Activity (NSA) Souda Bay, Greece, on Feb. 16 to conduct an Emergent Repair Availability (ERAV) on the ship’s starboard quarter following a recent collision.
Damage assessed includes the exterior wall of two storage rooms and a maintenance space. External to the ship, damage assessed includes a line handling space, the fantail, and the platform above one of the storage spaces. Aircraft elevator number three sustained no damage and is fully operational. Forward Deployed Regional Maintenance Center (FDRMC) will lead the pier side ERAV, including an assessment and follow-on repairs to damages sustained.
“While the ship is fully mission capable and the ship conducted flight operations following the collision, pulling into port for emergent repairs will enable the ship to continue deployment as scheduled,” said Capt. Dave Snowden, Harry S. Truman’s commanding officer.
An assessment team will conduct a full survey of damaged areas and develop a repair plan to be executed immediately following completion of the assessment. The assessment team includes structural engineers, naval architects, and other personnel from FDRMC and Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY). They will be supported by ship’s force personnel and local industry partners for the repair effort.
“The Forward Deployed Regional Maintenance Center’s ability to mobilize resources within and outside the theater to conduct repairs underscores the warfighting capability of the world’s most powerful Navy,” said Vice Adm. J. T. Anderson, commander U.S. Sixth Fleet.

The saga of the USS Connecticut….not bad…just 5 years
“USS Connecticut (SSN 22) is currently in Dry Dock 5 at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF) in Bremerton, Washington, and is undergoing a previously scheduled Extended Dry-Docking Selected Restricted Availability (EDSRA). An EDSRA is a major maintenance availability that all submarines undergo during their maintenance life cycle.
The damage USS Connecticut sustained in October 2021 is being repaired during this EDSRA.
An assessment conducted last year at PSNS & IMF confirmed USS Connecticut (SSN 22) can be fully restored for unrestricted operations. The damage to the ship is located at the bow and the lower portion of the rudder. The propulsion plant was unaffected by the impact and continues to operate as designed.
https://www.navalnews.com/naval-news/2023/08/navsea-updates-on-uss-connecticut-ssn-22-submarine-repairs/
The U.S. Navy has released the command investigation into the USS Connecticut (SSN 22) grounding that occurred Oct. 2, 2021, the U.S. Pacific Fleet said May 23.
USS Connecticut grounded on an uncharted seamount while operating submerged in a poorly surveyed area in international waters in the Indo-Pacific region. The investigation determined the grounding was preventable. Specifically, the grounding resulted from an accumulation of unit-level errors and omissions in navigation planning, watch team execution and risk management, all of which were deemed to fall far below U.S. Navy standards.

Lots of whining everywhere about federal gubmint workers losing their jobs. Welcome to the real world bitches!!
I don’t remember this many people in CONgress whining and complaining when private sector employees lose their jobs.
Starting with GATT they off shored our industrial base and 5 million manufacturing workers lost their jobs.
When FJB shut down the Keystone Pipeline Thousands lost their livelihood. Those gummint workers were cheering because…fake Climate Change scam.
Learn to Coal!!
Where were they when both the textile and furniture manufacturing industry disappeared?
In the span of a couple years post NAFTA, TENS of thousands of good paying jobs vanished to Mexico and China.
Whole towns in Southern VA Piedmont, and NC collapsed. I witnessed it firsthand.
The thieves in gov’t can eat a butt nugget. Harrumph!
That’s what I want to see return – the textile and furniture manufacturing industry. Also, all medications that we could possibly need.
or were sent packing because they wouldn’t take the vax. SPIT!
I was in Youngstown OH when the mills started shutting down. Instead of investing in upgrading blast furnaces, BOFs, and slabs, steel companies shut the mills. Thousands lost very good paying jobs. Shameful.
Yep same thing happened in Pittsburgh! Congress members created the “rust belt” by moving as many good paying lmanufacturing jobs overseas as possible!!! Spit!!!
Maybe they should learn to “do the jobs Americans don’t want to do”.
Overheard a conversation in a shop here in our small southern town yesterday. The mid-40’s woman was very upset that, after almost 3 years living in this town working remotely for one of the 3 letter federal agencies, was actually being “forced” to return to her office to continue working. She portrayed herself as the victim, which I found quite ironic.
All of that is gonna take awhile. In the meantime, could he start with making Ivermectin OTC in every state?
Delta CRJ-900 Crash Toronto – 17 Feb. 2025
GOOD Analysis
Thank you for posting that. Blancolirio/Juan Brown is always my go-to for understanding and learning with regard to all things aviation–and a bunch of other stuff. He’s a natural teacher.
He’s First Officer on the 777s, has a long aviation history, loves what he’s doing, and is thoroughly concerned about the crap that has intruded on what used to be aviation excellence–he speaks about that plainly without being a jerk, and sometimes communicates a great deal between the lines.
I watched that video and then watched this one from that same link. This expert is claiming there a “99.9%” chance that this crash was pilot error. Come to think of it? Have we heard anything about the person who “landed” the plane?
Good video. Winds and snow on the runway were definitely NOT the problem.
Any professional pilot out there should have been able to make a safe landing under those conditions with a little planning and attention. These conditions are a bit more challenging, but not overly so. Call it a difficulty level of 5 outof 10.
The runway point of intercept is VERY short. As he explained, they should have touched down MUCH farther down the runway. If they had touched down a half second earlier, they would have missed the runway entirely and landed in the overrun.
If the runway was icy it might be easier to understand why they landed so short, but with 20 knots of headwind and mostly dry runway, they were going to have a very short ground roll anyway. There is no reason they should have been aiming so short.
Barring some sudden, inexplicable engine or flight control malfunction in the final few seconds before touchdown, this is looking more and more like pilot error.
My old company had a pilot who crashed a 747 under similar conditions. That pilot had documented training deficiencies, but was passed along anyway. Care to guess why?

Regarding the Democrat’s latest hysteria, that Musk administering DOGE violates the appointments clause…
Trump issued Executive Order 14158 of January 20, 2025 which states in part: “The United States Digital Service is hereby publicly renamed as the United States DOGE Service” https://www.federalregister.gov/d/2025-02005/p-6
So when and how was the United States Digital Service created?
Obama created it on August 11, 2014: “the Administration is formally launching the U.S. Digital Service.” “We are excited that Mikey Dickerson will serve as the Administrator of the U.S. Digital Service” – https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/blog/2014/08/11/delivering-customer-focused-government-through-smarter-it
Obama appointed Dickerson who, as far as I can determine, never underwent any Senate confirmation. So why the fuss over Musk?
Oh, that’s (D)ifferent.
So, what would DC commie Judge Chatkan be doing now if Kamala had won?
The fun thing about all these commie judges having to reverse their own rulings or rule for the defendant (Trump). Doncha know they hate that.
…..” Postmaster General Louis DeJoy on Tuesday announced that he would be stepping down as the U.S. Postal Service tries to recover from hundreds of billions of dollars in predicted losses within the next decade.
DeJoy, who was appointed during President Donald Trump‘s first term, notified the Postal Service Board of Governors that it was time to find a suitable successor.
“While there remains much critical work to be done to ensure that the Postal Service can be financially viable as we continue to serve the nation in our essential public service mission, I have decided it is time to start the process of identifying my successor and of preparing the Postal Service for this change,” DeJoy said in a statement. “……
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/postmaster-general-louis-dejoy-stepping-down-us-postal-service-financial-turmoil
Start by greatly increasing the rates on “junk” mail. Right now, the Postal Service carries around tons of paper that immediately goes to the trash or to the landfill, unwanted and unopened. If “junk” could be made to cost too much, it would stop.
*That* is a *great* idea!
The Postal Service has become the service for Amazon. That is about it. One of the still going greatest government boondoggles.
Oh and yea, post office carriers are paid damn good money and benefits for riding around in trucks all damn day.
Fed-Ex & UPS – one or both, I forget – has the post office deliver packages at no charge!
I was friends with a Postmaster before she retired… it was one of her biggest headaches (there was a list of headaches she had no power to solve) because it took up so much of the sorting & delivery time.
DOGE is badly needed in the USPS. It has such a long & interesting, amazing history…

President Trump has no greater supporter than Stephen K Bannon. But Bannon is never shy to to tell the President

And I’m sure DJT highly values the arguments that Bannon promotes.

A Great article detailing how and why Mayorkas needs to be imprisoned or worse. I call what he did to this country High Treason. I would certainly add the NGOs, organizations, churches, and the UN. I only disagree with the author on one point, prison is too easy of a sentence.
Definition of High Treason:
“the committing of a crime that seriously threatens the safety of your country”
“The deadliest mass crime wave in American history—who should be held accountable?”
Excerpts:
It was an unprecedented invasion of America fostered and directly supported by the very people tasked with protecting our nation’s borders and the country’s citizens and residents.
In the middle of all this, Mayorkas appeared several times before Congress and always told the same lie, “The border is secure.”
(It is widely understood that “Under Federal law, it is a crime to knowingly and willfully make a materially false statement to Congress punishable with up to five years in prison.”)
The Mayorkas-sponsored invasion triggered the greatest single massive crime wave in American history. In the years 2022–2024, figures released by the US Border Protection Agency reported illegal aliens were responsible for 72,066 total crimes committed by illegals during the four-year time frame when Mayorkas ran DHS.
This number included 80 homicides and 1,358 sexual assaults and related offenses.
An accessory to a crime is described as, “a person who assists, but does not actually participate, in the commission of a crime . . . . An accessory must generally have knowledge that a crime is being committed, will be committed, or has been committed. . . . . The assistance to the criminal may be of any type, including emotional or financial assistance as well as physical assistance or concealment.”
Speaking of financial assistance, in the past week, the Department of Health and Human Services reported that it spent $22.6 billion on assistance to illegal immigrants from 2020 to 2024 as border crossings hit all-time highs.
All of this was triggered by the policies of Mayorkas.
I’m no lawyer, but I hope Pam Bondi is looking at this. At a minimum, Mayorkas needs to go to jail for life. It was his specific actions that led to this unprecedented string of murders, rapes, and vast criminal damage and destruction in America.
To make it clear, Mayorkas is in some large way responsible for the crimes, misery, and chaos spread across the country by the illegals he welcomed into the country.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2025/02/the_deadliest_mass_crime_wave_in_american_history_who_should_be_held_accountable.html
Mayorkas did this and more.

🔥A Story of Resilience: Howard Lutnick’s Inspiring Journey After 9/11
This is the most powerful story of the year. Howard Lutnick witnessed the tragic loss of over 650 of his employees, including his brother and best friend, during the September 11th attacks. Faced with a difficult choice—shut down his company or leverage it to raise hundreds of millions of dollars for the families of his deceased colleagues—Howard chose the latter.
This remarkable story embodies the American spirit. Rather than giving up, Howard utilized his skills, talent, and leadership to orchestrate one of the greatest comebacks in modern history.

Seriously, this battle is one that decides the war.
The Constitution sets out three co-equal branches with limited and delineated powers derived from the consent of the governed.
There is no such thing as a fourth “independent agency” branch.
I would have to do some research, but it seems to me that Madison would have been familiar with the British East India Company and the permanent court of functionaries around the British throne.
That is a structure that was imposed upon us after the (British aggravated) Civil War. Very British, and completely unAmerican, structured system speaking.
People may think a fight over whether the President can fire the head of the MSPB is boring.
