In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Donald Trump Administration and Presidency.
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.

It’s going to be interesting when Starmer and Macron show up and weave their tales in support of Ukraine. According to Rubio, but in contrast to what their both saying, the US has communicated clearly our intentions. How are they going to square that up with Trump?
They aren’t. They are going to whine to the loony left media on both sides of the pond.
Right. Lindsey Graham style, they will pound the podium and show their base how tough they are.
But in reality, they are here to collect whatever crumbs Trump will throw at them to smooth out the completion of the Ukrainian peace deal.
They will both pretend that Ukraine getting into NATO, the coup in 2014, and Z bombing the ethnic Russians in the Donbas over 4,000 times had absolutely nothing to do with Putin invading.
They will also pretend that NATO countries are contributing as much as they possibly can to the defense of Europe.
President Trump will most definitely call bullshirt on their blatant obfuscation, lies, and hypocrisy. They will get spanked because “Daddy’s home”…praise God!
And lets not even talk about blowing up the pipeline,…I agree he will call bullshyte, the thing is they are both just like Z; they are figureheads sounding fury and meaningless.
Its British intel, and CIA, and the profiteers that are really behind this Ukraine scam, will he call them out?
Will he point out, publically the import and meaning of Putins demonstration, when he destroyed the ammo factory, 8 stories underground, with his MIRV Hypersonic missile, and then challenged the west to “pick a target”?
What Putin was clearly demonstrating was that IF HE WANTED TO, he could destroy, for example, NATO Heasquarters in Brussels “cutting off the head of the snake” and there is nothing the west could do to stop him.
Which then begs the question “WHY hasn’t he?” and the obvious answer, which was the whole point in him revealing he had such weopons; he has NO DESIRE to invade and occupy any countries west of Ukraine, and was content with a neutral Ukraine on his border.
It is NATOS behavior, since the fall of the wall, that actually JUSTIFIES Russia grabbing up a few countries, as a buffer zone against the West…
I am only passingly intetested in how PDJT deals with macron and starmer, they are as meaningless as Z or Boris…HOW is he going to deal with the rougue CIA, and what is Ratcliffe and Tulsi going to do, to De-fang that monster Truman created, once and for all.
People talk about disbanding the FBI, cause it can’t be re-formed, but what about the CIA?
ITS the agency that needs to be burned to the ground and salt the earth, but CAN it be done?
So … when are they gonna repair that pipeline? . . .
Here’s how I see it dutch,
With Tulsi Gabbard and Pam Bondi securing the inside of the house…
And Pete Hegseth and Tom Homan securing the perimeter…
The IC that was, has no place to hide.
Game, set, match…
And I hereby recommend {strenuously} that Stephen Miller be addressed as Doctor {Dr. Steve} since he most certainly prescribes and dispenses a daily dose of red pills{MAGA} for public consumption.
In God We Trust
Trust God
Fear not
Well said
Dutchman, I don’t agree with burning the CIA to the ground. We still need intelligence capability to know what is going on in the world, to have boots on the ground to gather that intelligence, and the ability to transfer it to analysts who can put it into the context of events.
However, the CIA has taken that “intelligence gathering” function into areas that they were never intended to perform. Where they directly change events, directly intervene in countries to get outcomes that are their own priorities, that must be stopped. The drug trade for off-the-books money. The regime change operations. The spying on Americans. The backing of terrorists. Assassinations of inconvenient people. The direct intervention in wars and conflicts. Training of militias. Training of terrorists or “rebels”. Their independent actions not fully controlled by the oversight of office of the president. STOP. Period.
Sometimes you just have to condemn an old structure, demolish it, and build a beautiful new one to replace it.
Obviously we need an intelligence organizatioon. But building it on a rotten foundation is just putting lipstick on a pig — to mix my metaphors.
Agree we need an intelligence service.
There is a fine line between battling evil and becoming evil.
There needs to be some accountability, some sanity check to keep the good people good.
There needs to be some accountability, some sanity check to keep the good people good.
That was the whole purpose of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the FISC court as the outcomes of the Church Committee. So the real trick is coming up with a means of oversight that is impervious (or nearly so) to being corrupted by the people subject to the oversight. Tall order under any circumstance.
Yes. You make a good point. That the SSCI is so corrupt is an indictment on the Senate and the Senate selection process as a whole.
We need to go back to the founding father’s intention of having the State Represenatives select Senators.
It is too easy to find funding and muscle to elect 2 compliant people for US Senate seats when trillions are at stake.
5 eyes lies. What kind of info is that?
This is the crux. Fixing our house leaves 4 “eyes” still hostile to us.
I thank everyone for their opinion. Destroy this evil CIA completely and don’t stop or allow any of these people near government ever again…bill
What I would like to know is who is actually directing the IC.
.
The CIA was supposed to be the civilian gatherers and coordinators of information. Part of the reason for it was the ostensible suprise attack on Pearl Harbor and other needs arising out of WWII.
It was presumably needed because the military isn’t “everywhere” in the world getting intel; the State Dept. is kind of everywhere, but they’re overt and not intel people but diplomats and desk jockeys; and FBI and other law enforcement are only within the U.S.
It was not a bad idea, but right after it was formed (Truman, 1947), it went rogue.
It rapidly insinuated itself into the military special operations (civil affairs, psyops, and special forces), and it glommed a lot of power over the State Dept. via foreign embassies, using its “covert” authority as necessary for operators to post as one or the other. It glommed State Dept. and military funds to set up private research facilities, even private “civilian” corporations under the auspices of a necessity for cooperation. And it also insinuated itself into virtually every part of the government and even the media that might deal with foreign information, all under the rationale of the need to covertly gather intel bearing on “national security” and centralize it into one agency.
The problems with the fiefdom (same old bureaucratic powermongering issues) might be at least in part the “civilian” aspect as an “independent agency”. Or that there are CIA agents who currently pose as members of the military, State Dept. diplomats, FBI etc. agents, members of other government and private agencies and organizations, all for the ostensible purpose of gathering and centralizing intel pertaining to “national security” threats. And/or that since foreign intel is the primary function, operatives are spread out all over the world, making oversight extremely difficult. I dunno.
One thing Trump tried to do at the end of his first term was require that spec ops report only to the SecDef, to stop the CIA from independently authorizing military actions. (Remember Niger). This EO was cancelled by Biden. Be that as it may, this only addresses one part of the issues.
Alternatively, do we want covert intel gathering overtly under the direct authority of the State Dept. — i.e. corrupt money-managing civilian embassy employees, sometimes foreigners in foreign countries, and they’re supposed to be diplomats. No. For numerous reasons.
I do think that “spies” and information-gathering are necessary. But human nature. Personal relationships and alignments and self-interest.
If we have difficulty controlling desk jockeys who write regulations in the EPA or Dept. Education “resisting” and jealously guarding their little power bubbles, and even worse the career State Dept. embassy personnel around the world, well imagine with the CIA.

It was rogue before it even started 🤷♀️
DEVILS CHESSBOARD- PB: Talbot, David: 9780008159689: Amazon.com: Books
👆 👆
It is over 600 pages…but well worth the read!
It covers the time before CIA started, when Dulles worked
with the Nazis, knew about what was really going on in the
concentration camps…and kept it from our government.
And that was just the beginning………😳😳
I have the book on my kindle….even bought a
hardcopy and it is currently in circulation
among friends.
I believe it is also available in Audible.
Highly recommend.
.
So… the problem is/was Allen Dulles? …how the CIA was structured?
At this point, we need solutions. Do you have any suggestions?
.
How the CIA …is structured.
I wish I had a solution, but I can
only give recommendations.
My first one would be accountability.
Example…
Colin Powell and his vial and claim
of WMD. Intelligence blames him
and he blames Intelligence.
💁♀️ 🤷♀️
Big question is…will Musk go into the CIA and audit?…If he doesn’t that says allot.
Just tell them sure, admit Ukraine into NATO. If you do we leave. Good trade.
Lol. True!
Excellent synopsis.
I wouldn’t listen to anything they have to say unless they want to explain “they made us do it” and start producing evidence. OTHERWISE, they are all trash and need to be handled accordingly.
Now the use of intelligence services against Trump will come to full fruition. Britain must pay a price for their treachery. Where’s the popcorn?
Hopefully Zelinsky shows up too. Macron can take him back to France with him for a more permanent stay.
when those two id*ots comin to visit VSGPDJT ???
One of the British pukes was looking down his elitist nose yesterday telling President Trump he needs to learn history.
I doubt that helped Starmer’s position any.
What I remember about history is when the Europeans start fighting each other they always end up invading Russia.
morning Treepers……………………….be well
OHhhh this one evokes so many memories of my youth fishing in ponds and lakes in the beautiful Ozarks of Missouri.
Thank you again Bjorkdream for eliciting thoughts of a more peaceful time in my life.
Have a blessed and fantastic day!

Beautiful.
I agree with T Turtle, nostalgic and pulls at my heart strings.
Thank you and God bless you.
Adrift! A little boat adrift!30
Adrift! A little boat adrift!
And night is coming down!
Will no one guide a little boat
Unto the nearest town?
So Sailors say — on yesterday —
Just as the dusk was brown
One little boat gave up its strife
And gurgled down and down.
So angels say — on yesterday —
Just as the dawn was red
One little boat — o’erspent with gales —
Retrimmed its masts — redecked its sails —
And shot — exultant on!

Glad to see you are still doing these peaceful posts, bjork!
The Democrats are so desperate for something to “get Trump” they will jump on any bone 🍖. Pretending that firing 300 folks out of an agency that employs 50,000 actually caused a plane crash is beyond ludicrously ignorant, and completely tone deaf, and they weren’t even in critical safety positions. That has never stopped them before.
Once again, anything and everything bad that happens for the next four years will most definitely be “Trump’s Fault”.
An example: NASA says, “the chance of an asteroid striking earth in the next decade rises to 3.1%”. Obviously this is President “Trump’s Fault”.
What responsibility does Delta incur from knowingly contracting an ‘unmanned’ DEI aviation company to fly and maintain their planes?
Wordmanesque of you, Pegon Zellschmidt!
This is one issue of many that has generational strings that have damaged a group of people and the USA, to use a modern vernacular “Balkanized” nation or to divide & conquer.
As one example; DOGE is exposing so much of this with most of the political black leadership in the The Congressional Black Caucus, almost all have become multi-millionaires see Maxine Waters et al.
Thomas Sowell’s “Random Thoughts”
“In politics, few talents are as richly rewarded as the ability to convince parasites that they are victims. Welfare states on both sides of the Atlantic have discovered that largesse to losers does not reduce their hostility to society, but only increases it. Far from producing gratitude, generosity is seen as an admission of guilt, and the reparations as inadequate compensation for injustices – leading to worsening behavior by the recipients.”
The brilliance of Mr. Sowell always punctuates where we find ourselves, we literally have protest with people marching to stop DOGE revealing fraud in a magnitude that is beyond belief. The generational theft is breathtaking.
“There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs-partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” Booker T Washington 1911
Aka the Race Hustler
Make no mistake, poverty is an industry in this country, with all races and created victim classes with millions of people on all sides that have been trapped for generations now.
As President Trump shatters these swamp rackets you can see how they are going to fight, their old playbook “Rules for Radicals”, using emotions, race, sex, war, pestilence, privation, chaos, projection, distractions…etc.
With Kash Patel, President Trump has his cabinet in place look for anything and I mean anything.
Please Lord watch and keep our Great American President Donald J Trump, his Cabinet and Deplorable Army as we march into battle with dark, evil forces. Lord shield us as darkness strikes against the fabric of goodness and unity that exist in the hearts in all races, men and women of good will, let us again cast these demons back into hell, in Jesus name.
Amen!
Net worth of the 50 richest in congress 4.8 Billion. The poster children Mitch McConnell and Nancy Pelosi between the two $300 million + .
To be fair, some have come into office already rich, the ones that interest me the ones who became fabulously wealthy in office.
They all dine at restaurants with no prices on the menus, and shop at stores with no price tags on the items. To these people, prices never matter.
“Ill gotten gain.”
JUSTICE!
Exactly!!! A dozen eggs costing $12+ , if the grocery store has them, has no effect on them whatsoever!!! They aren’t troubled if the supply is short, the demand is high and the price skyrockets! They buy it and go home or have someone buy it for them and have it delivered!!! Having Congress stacked with millionaires and multimillionaires makes our Representatives responsive to needs of millionaires and multimillionaires not us We The MAGA People, America Firsters, the middle class!!! Congress is broken! I now learn that every tax dollar and every SS tax dollar I paid for the 40+ years I worked has been wasted every single dollar!! Spit! JMO
I would rather spend $40 on eggs than $40 on one ribeye.
I’d rather spend $40 on rope to hang the bastards in congress who have been robbing us blind. After a fair trial of course.
..I live in Harris county /TX …in the KROGER store( their brand) 18 pcs for $6.39…..
The video of clueless Nancy, showing off TWO sub-Zero freezers full of high end ice cream during the pandemic, and her joking about it, was, IMHO, the perfect picture of just how out of touch these people really are! (And, it goes without saying, that BOTH sides of the aisle are just as corrupt!)
This, Fauxcahontas “having a beer” and Shumer’s idiotic hamburger grilling all show how in touch with reality they are.
It’s really quite simple. as a former PCAOB auditor myself, all the politicians such as AOC etc, should be audited and thrown in jail. It is IMPOSSIBLE to get wealthy like that unless they had their own businesses while in office. Which they don’t, which means they have stolen from US or taken kick backs for votes. Either way, both are crimes.
A very few of them WERE millionaires, prior to taking office.
But you gotta wonder,…WHY would a “self-made millionaire” choose to run for public office, and become a Senator or Congressman?
Its actually a horrible job, as now structured; they have NO actual imput into writing legislation, thats done by the lobbyists, and the Big 4; Senate and House Majority and Minority leaders…
As for the rest, they spend their time fundraising, and vote as they are told, and every so often have to campaign to keep their job.
So again, WHY would a truely “self-made millionaire” WANT to be a member of Congress?
I suspect because they cut corners, to obtain their ill gotten gains, and are just as crooked as those who became millionaires AFTER getting in office.
We missed a great opportunity on J6, 2020.
Should have tarred and feathered all 535, right there on the front porch of the Capital building.
When 100s of millions are spent on winning a seat in house or senate. For a job that pays 175 k a year it tells you how much power and money is involved .
Some of them put millions of their own money in there race . It’s all corrupt
Because that “millionaire” wants to become a “billionaire”…
It’s because they were missing the one piece of puzzle, POWER. Having a decent bank account out of the gate helps them with time to become a congresscritter and once they win, they then have power over the region most likely where their business is located. Then they sell votes and contracts to people in that region and now they have more money and Power/Control. It’ ALLLLLLLLLL a grift.
JMO…but one way to deconstruct the whole mess is to move them back to their district where they stay most of the time. Finally get rid of the lobbyist.
There is NO to be fair …. Even those who come into office “already wealthy” have seen their net worth jump by orders of magnitude.
The primary methods …. Blind investment portfolios that always seem to grow faster than market ROI averages …. and being “employees” of their own Campaign Organizations collecting Tax Free cash.
Then there is tried and true, indirect “successful spouse scam”, with a spouse who seems to do so well in business and investments.
Then there are the “book” deals and royalty collection schemes to slip in a few $Million here and there on the side.
And let us not forget that DOGE has shown they all have their noses in the NGO trough.
I have long noted, as one example, that if the NAACP, which is so old they actually used the term “colored people” were to actually achieve their stated goals of true equality without any reference to skin color, they would be out of business.
Another one now is the “mentally ill”; it has also become a multi-billion $ hustle, with “contractors” that operate “suicide hot lines” and if someone calls one because they are temporarily going thru a bad patch, they are pushed into lifelong treatment with strong psychiatric drugs, and then the contractor applies for them, for SS Disability, which the contractor then “manages” for them, because they can not work, or even reliably pay their rent on time, being so zoned out on the meds.
My daughters neighbor, many years ago and at age 19, was drawn into such a mess.
Dutchman: So called “mental health contractors” hit the jackpot when they started contracting with universities to provide “support and counseling” to the students turned crazy by the educational system, including the universities.
Yes.
The easiest way to look at things, everything is fraud.
Psychiatric drug industry is one on the biggest of the frauds.
The Supreme Court must bring gavel down on activist judges hamstringing President Trump
Lower-level judges are acting on partisan politics, and the high court must rein them in
February 20, 2025
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/supreme-court-must-bring-gavel-down-activist-judges-hamstringing-president-trump
———–
That would permanently GUT federal district judge lawfare at the national level to overrride POTUS. WHY aren’t they doing this?
“Until very recently, federal judges were so reluctant to raise this Constitutional issue that they almost never issued such injunctions. They issued injunctions only for their own circuits and left it to the Supreme Court to resolve questions about nationwide application.
But nationwide injunctions in contentious cases have become more common recently, and it is likely that the Supreme Court will be forced to address whether inferior-court federal judges do in fact have nationwide authority.
I think it is quite unlikely that the Supreme Court will affirm this. [since oversight of NATIONAL issues is THEIR job – W]
I am not addressing here the question of whether I think Trump and DOGE’s authority to block Treasury payments should prevail. I am predicting that it almost certainly will prevail.” – Eric S Raymond
Warfare on Lawfare
Feb 10, 2025
https://www.kunstler.com/p/warfare-on-lawfare
Excerpt:
The DOJ under Pam Bondi can designate the US Solicitor General to petition the Supreme Court (SCOTUS) for certiorari — to expedite the resolution of this constitutional issue as to whether Mr. Trump, as chief executive, and his bona fide appointees, can carry out executive functions. The arguments against that appear to be weak.
It is the President’s duty to see that the laws are faithfully executed, meaning that the departments under him do their jobs correctly, which would give him inherent authority to audit and restructure agencies like USAID. Both judges Nichols and Engelmayer are arrogating executive and legislative functions on policy-making to themselves, triggering a separation-of-powers dispute that the SCOTUS must adjudicate promptly.
What matters most in these cases is that SCOTUS has an opportunity to put up new guardrails against the hijacking of the federal courts for the purpose of lawfare — that is, for political dirty-fighting under color-of-law. The law is slow-moving, arcane, and incomprehensible to most non-lawyer citizens and that is why the Party of Chaos has misused it so liberally.
No doubt. Justice is Blind needs to return.
I agree but that’s too much to expect from Chief Justice Roberts! He’s our Kumbaya, why can’t we all get along Justice! Feelings, fairness subvert the Constitution! JMO
No doubt this Lawfare approach was gamed and the counter-moves by Team Trump were designed to cause this eventual SC showdown. With Lawfare gone what’s the Left going to do to try to stop Trump, or convince people to support an alternative political direction? There’s always the traditional option to use and encourage violence, but the FBI will now prosecute, not protect, the perpetrators.
Well said.
Trump moves to end protections for 500K Haitian migrants — paving the way for deportations
20 Feb 2025
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/trump-moves-to-end-protections-for-500k-haitian-migrants-paving-the-way-for-deportations/ar-AA1ztxef
“Biden and [former DHS Secretary Alejandro] Mayorkas attempted to tie the hands of the Trump administration by extending Haiti’s Temporary Protected Status by 18 months — far longer than justified or necessary,” a DHS spokesperson said in a statement. “We are returning integrity to the TPS system, which has been abused and exploited by illegal aliens for decades. President Trump and Secretary Noem are returning TPS to its original status: temporary.”
Save Springfield Ohio, or Make Springfield Great Again!
I hope they roundup all of them at one time, the 20,000+ Haitians that were dumped there by the Biden Administration causing chaos in the schools, hospitals and social services of that small town!!! Unconscionable what was done to the citizens of Springfield and to the Haitians themselves!!! Make pets safe again in Springfield!!! JMO
Just Purrrrrrrfect ?
Save the kitties!
Oh Heck Yeah!!
The thing is, its NOT realky that the individual illegal aliens have abused and exploited this TPS system, its that OTHERS have done so, on their behalf.
EVERY aspect of legal immigration needs to be examined, as so many loopholes are exploited…and scrapping the whole thing and starting over with nothing “Comprehensive” but instead SIMPLE, and based on America First, needs to be implemented.
JMO.
Two points related to the process of President Trump bringing the Executive Branch back into Constitutional Compliance:
(1) The layoffs are preceding in the 2025 Executive Branch.
The low-hanging-fruit-groups, ….. probationary new-hires and whole DEI departments ….. are leading the parade to the Exit door.
Still coming are the large scale firings of Executive Branch employees who had anything to do with:
….. the “weaponization” of the federal government against its own citizens,
………. stealing the 2020 election,
…………… J6 legislative trial scam(any part of it),
………………… the 1/6/21 coup d’état against our Constitutional Republic and President Trump,
……………………… the 4 year treasonous campaign to drive President Trump from the 2024 race
………………………….. the embezzlement of funds from the Treasury to funnel to individuals, organizations or countries.
The treasonous law fare corruption is so wide spread (reference the open letter from the 900+ ex- and current DOJ employees) that the only solution is to fire everyone and just hire back the few who didn’t have any involvement in the treasonous activities and are loyal American citizens. ………. Any foreign or dual-citizenship employees also need to be fired.
____________________________________________
(2) Wherever they are physically located, disable and defund the large database infrastructures that were unconstitutionally used by the intelligence agencies in biden’s Executive Branch to take over many of America’s social media platforms.
The large databases should be made “null” and any outside contracts should be cancelled.
They were part-and-parcel of the treasonous weaponization of the federal government.
The first month of President Trump’s administration has been grrrrrrreat!
God, please continue to bless President Trump, his family, supporters, administration and the USA!
Do the Big Tech Social Media companies continue to have the 230 protections, or is it time to withdraw them?
Mitch McChina will certainly go down in history as the guy that appeared to care more about the CCP than the US. However, what he did to shape the judiciary in this country is historic.
Many have been wondering who will take his place two names appeal to me personally, Fmr. AG Daniel Cameron and Rep. Thomas Massie. I can’t vote in KY but do have businesses in the state and really love this great state, especially Lexington.
“As Mitch McConnell Walks Into the Sunset, What Will His Legacy Be and Who Will Fill His Shoes?”
Excerpts:
********
His biggest legacy, however, is in judicial confirmations. McConnell, always a master of the parliamentary rules of the Senate, fundamentally reshaped the American judiciary to fit a more originalist, conservative strain of legal thinking. He was never the first to alter the rules of the Senate, but played aggressively by the rules his opponents chose. His opposite number, Senator Harry Reid (D-NV), was the one who eliminated the filibuster for presidential appointments instead of working to find compromise picks; McConnell warned him of this and stated that Democrats would regret the choice. They certainly did a few years later, when Republicans were able to use these new rules to confirm three Justices to the Supreme Court in just four years – as well as blocking Obama’s appointment of Merrick Garland in a controversial, but entirely rational and legal maneuver. Those judicial appointments, both at the highest level and in the lower courts, have already begun to tell. In just the past few years, we have seen major victories for the conservative movement: overturning Roe v. Wade, minimizing deference to bureaucratic agencies, protecting freedom of speech and religion, limiting affirmative action, and much more. And this is just the beginning; the courts will lean in the originalist direction for decades to come.
**********
There are a number of strong contenders for his Senate seat. Soon after McConnell’s announcement, former Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron announced he would run for the seat. Cameron was a strong Trump surrogate in both 2020 and 2024, and despite the shadow of the Breona Taylor case and a failed run for Kentucky governor, Cameron appears to have some political capital to wield. Rep. Thomas Massie’s (R-KY) name is being floated. Massie in the House and Rand Paul in the Senate are already Kentucky’s staunch advocates for free speech and limited government; so, they could become the dynamic duo that might spearhead an age of government accountability. Other less prominent names who have expressed interest are Rep. Andy Barr (R-KY) and entrepreneur Nate Morris. What they lack in name recognition, Morris, in particular, could make up with his own money.

James Comer
His legacy will be that he was one of the worst backstabbing slimy crooks to ever disgrace Washington.
They should burn his shoes.
Keep an eye on Nate Morris, a Lexington, Ky. businessman who is a huge Trump supporter and already has Don Jr. supporting him.
The former State AG, Cameron … but he’s Mitches protégé. We need extremely strong vetting and can’t afford to give Dems a Senator seat. We have to take this.

JD Vance
@JDVance
This is moralistic garbage, which is unfortunately the rhetorical currency of the globalists because they have nothing else to say.
For three years, President Trump and I have made two simple arguments: first, the war wouldn’t have started if President Trump was in office; second, that neither Europe, nor the Biden administration, nor the Ukrainians had any pathway to victory. This was true three years ago, it was true two years ago, it was true last year, and it is true today.
And for three years, the concerns of people who were obviously right were ignored. What is Niall’s actual plan for Ukraine? Another aid package? Is he aware of the reality on the ground, of the numerical advantage of the Russians, of the depleted stock of the Europeans or their even more depleted industrial base?
Instead, he quotes from a book about George HW Bush from a different historical period and a different conflict. That’s another currency of these people: reliance on irrelevant history.
President Trump is dealing with reality, which means dealing with facts. And here are some facts:
Number one, while our Western European allies’ security has benefitted greatly from the generosity of the United States, they pursue domestic policies (on migration and censorship) that offend the sensibilities of most Americans and defense policies that assume continued over-reliance.
Number two, Russians have a massive numerical advantage in manpower and weapons in Ukraine, and that advantage will persist regardless of further Western aid packages. Again, the aid is *currently* flowing.
Number three, the United States retains substantial leverage over both parties to the conflict.
Number four, ending the conflict requires talking to the people involved in starting it and maintaining it.
Number five, the conflict has placed–and continues to place–stress on tools of American statecraft, from military stockpiles to sanctions (and so much else). We believe the continued conflict is bad for Russia, bad for Ukraine, and bad for Europe. But most importantly, it is bad for the United States.
Given the above facts, we must pursue peace, and we must pursue it now. President Trump ran on this, he won on this, and he is right about this. It is lazy, ahistorical nonsense to attack as “appeasement” every acknowledgment that America’s interest must account for the realities of the conflict.
That interest–not moralisms or historical illiteracy–will guide President Trump’s policy in the weeks to come.
And thank God for that.

Amen and Amen JD Vance!!!!
“,…Number four, ending the conflict means talking to the people involved in starting it and maintaining it.”
You mean the CIA, British intel, Lindsey Graham and Liz Chaney? Sam Powers, and the coven of witches with a “B”, the bloodthirsty crones that promoted “duty to protect” bullshyte to justify destroying Syria, and who were all in on ramping up aggression against Russia?
And being one of the young men who was sent to fight in that desert, along with thousands of other Americans who did NOT come home, all to appease the ego of the Bushes and the greed of the Cheneys, JD Vance speaks with more authority than Niall Ferguson will ever have!!
Great statement by JD Vance!
Guess the Brits didn’t get the memo that
the Bush family is not really very popular
with the MAGA crowd. 😵💫😖
That Niall Ferguson is quoting Bush….
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
President Trump endorsed Byron Donalds for Governor. Casey DeSantis is supposed to run. Ron and Casey were hunting down Trump to stop from endorsing Byron per Laura Loomer.
Will Ron run for Senate I wonder?
He appointed Ashley Moody, who will likely run again. Ron won’t beat Rick Scott.
Casey can still run.
And lose.
We wondered why Trump had not offered Donalds a prominent position in his administration, but this was most likely the long-range plan all the while.
Rep. Donalds, all day.
Never casey!
Riddle me this.
What do both Nellie Korda and Victor Wembanyama have in common as very young under 24 year olds?
Answer: Blood clots
How is it that so many young people are having blood clots and heart issues and most of the world scratches their head as if this is all very normal for people under 24 years old?
I hope that Kennedy goes scorched earth on those who have committed crimes against humanity.
They all pretend not to know what is happening, just like they pretended to be baffled by the young people dying at unprecedented rates, especially healthy young athletes collapsing on fields and courts around the world.
I suggest everyone read the Ethical Skeptic “Houston We Have a Problem”
Note: This article has aged well. What we detected and sounded the alarm over more than two years ago, is now confirmed as showing in the actuarial data as of Aug 2023. To wit:
“Houston the CDC Has a Problem”
https://theethicalskeptic.com/2022/10/24/houston-the-cdc-has-a-problem-part-2-of-3/
I too hope RFK Jr. goes scorched earth on those who have committed Crimes Against Humanity and also those who have Covered it Up. Sometimes the Cover Up is as bad as the crime, oftentimes worse. The scientist, government workers, and others in these threee letter agencies that have lied, obfuscated, changed evidence, and covered up the crimes must also be charged with aiding and abetting and then some.
From the above article:
As of the publishing of this article, 9,290 death records posted in the June 2ndMMWR update showed as redacted four weeks later and still remain missing from the data. Another 13,245 deaths were re-categorized by the CDC from primarily cancer and heart death, to other codes such as Alzheimer, kidney, or respiratory deaths, as can be seen in part inside this chart. It is hard to envision a scenario explaining this 52,000-record data tampering across the most at-risk weeks (MMWR Weeks 4 through 20) of 2022, as not constituting malicious obfuscation of US citizen mortality data. As a former intelligence officer and strategist for nations facing some pretty tough corruption challenges, I am a skeptic of power, and no eager subscriber to Hanlon’s Razor.
Despite this death record data shortfall, seven of the ICD-10 VAT charts depicted to the right (click on the image to obtain a separate tab version, and click again to magnify the image) depict trends which should instill enormous concern in the mind of any professional, in terms of US citizen mortality post MMWR Week 14 of 2021. In order to comprehend why this week is of critical importance, please click on Chart 1: Critical Inflection Date in Vaccine Dosesand examine Exhibit B: Arrival Comparative Between Doses and Deaths (below) – both of which will be detail outlined in Part 2 of this article series. The alignment of critical dates inside these charts is not only pivotal in our argument, but is prohibitively compelling as well.
The charts of particular concern, I have highlighted with a yellow background and listed below. These include the charts featuring stark post MMWR Week 14 2021 rises in mortality. Specifically, they are
What troubled me the most is that the covid “vaccines” affected the human genome, which means that not only those who were jabbed are terribly affected, but it will be passed on to their progeny.
Just some thoughts…
Don’t forget the West Point cadet who collapsed while walking to class on campus. That is not normal and those college kids are in better physical condition than most other college kids.
Two things…one…about what little I know about actuaries in the life insurance industry…is they can, given the right and true data…can predict, with very high levels of accuracy, when you will die.
The ‘Rona panic roll out was in Dec. 2019 to January 2020. IL shut down March 20, 2020.
About a year after the clot shot was rolled out, there was much speculation about the time line of longer range side effects and that we would see effects in about 3-5 years…we are in that time period.
And for the most part, heart problems, blood clots, strokes, chest pains, Type II Diabetes–
Are generally NOT normal in young adults and teens. And of that ‘worker mortality’ of 2021, how many were jabbed and boosted?
The 3 part article by The Ethical Skeptic was very thorough in implicating the COVID vaccine and the CDC with their own data . However, he didn’t stop when the CDC started “correcting” their reported data. The Ethical Skepic has published several follow-on articles which further amplify the fraud and gas lighting of the CDC, Pharma, and MSM. His latest article was on Feb. 17, 2025 and suggests that the there are now 1,727,990 excess deaths of which a significant number are due to cancer.

Support RFK Jr. Ban the mRNA vaccines until full tests are independently run and reported.
Hang Fauci.
Why are so many young people getting kidney stones? I know it sounds weird and it is not life threatening. Kidney stones in teenagers and 20 year olds?
They are blaming it on dehydration but that makes no sense. Everyone carries water bottles.
In the past we never cared how much we drank.
As my old mother says ” I never cared how much you guys drank.”
And it was often Kool Aid.
Soda, tea and coffee.
Milk, Kool Aid and water from a hose . . .

If the first bioweapon didn’t do the trick, the injection did.
I wish blood clots was the only side effect.
These poor people have AIDS, vaccine induced.
Good points, but don’t discount the damage from the coronavirus bio weapon itself. There was many people damaged, myself included, from getting the virus.
Heard that coronavirus damage was more auto immune (also BP, heart) related and shots were neurological, clot & heart related, and others as you noted.
Also young couples are having a hard time getting pregnant.
Infertility is a huge m money maker for the Medical Industrial Complex. So is cancer, diabetes, etc.etc.
The Dobbs Leak: Three Years Later, One Name Still Lingers in the Shadows
The Supreme Court conducted a formal investigation, interviewing nearly 100 individuals with access to the draft. The results, however, were inconclusive. The final report from the Marshal of the Court indicated that no definitive leaker could be identified. Yet, outside observers noted something peculiar: nearly all clerks and staff from the 2021-22 term were either publicly exonerated by implication or made statements denying involvement. All except for one: Amit Jain, a former clerk for Justice Sonia Sotomayor.
Jain, a graduate of Yale Law School, had a history of progressive activism. As a student, he had openly opposed Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s appointment to the Supreme Court, signing a public letter condemning Yale for supporting Kavanaugh’s nomination. His background made him an obvious subject of speculation. More notably, Jain had a documented connection to Politico reporter Josh Gerstein, one of the two journalists who broke the Dobbs leak story. Years earlier, Gerstein had quoted Jain in an article regarding immigration policy. The connection was circumstantial but sufficient for some conservative commentators to consider him a potential suspect.
Despite this attention, Jain has never publicly addressed the leak. This silence is striking given that other clerks have either explicitly denied involvement or have been effectively cleared by the investigation’s findings. Even if Jain was uninvolved, his refusal to comment remains unusual. A simple public statement denying participation would, in theory, dispel at least some of the speculation surrounding him. Instead, his absence from the conversation has only fueled further scrutiny.

Also look at Mary McCord’s husband Sheldon Snook, Assistant to Chief Justice John Roberts.
Interesting, thank you.
“I don’t know which government workers need to hear this but…
In the real world, people are laid off from their jobs at anytime, for any reason.
Constantly.”
They all need to hear that, and welcome to the real world.
Those Dems certainly didn’t care when 8,000 service members were let go for wisely choosing to NOT taking the Deadly Bioweapon Jab. And this, directly affected The United States National Security. Millions more in this country were fired for the same reason. Many of them worked in Hospitals, healthcare, fire, police, and other safety and government agencies .
They are whining that firing 300 out of 50,000 workers at the FAA will affect the safety in our skies but certainly didn’t care about the actual defense of this country.
Government workers need “safe spaces.”
How many MILLIONS of people lost their jobs when their employer was forced to shut down during C0v1d? How many small businesses had to shutter their doors forever while Amazon and all the Big Box stores took in record profits?
It’s all good points and I agree the swamp needs to be cleaned and think Trump is doing the right thing.
However, but just like the issue of illegal immigrants includes aliens who took advantage of the opportunity to come here to work hard and make a better life for their families, we don’t need to.swing the pendulum too far and be incompassionate towards the good people caught up in a mess not of their own making.
And don’t get cocky. Likely these massive layoffs will touch us all.
Not saying you are incompassionate, Viking mom. But seeing lots of haha screw the bast@RDS comments that seem little different than telling steelworkers to learn to code.
Elon calls it “moving people from the public sector to the private sector”.
Matter-of-fact.
Kash Patel knows where the ‘receipts’ are. I am looking forward to indictments with those receipts.
Had a first hand insight into federal government inefficiency and overreach this week.
Hubby had a joint replacement. He was offered home health PT for the first 2 weeks post op. Over 65, so on Medicare.
PT shows up for the first visit. They are there for 1.5 hours. The actual PT took maybe 30 minutes.
The rest of the time was complying with all the required Medicare questions and regulations. Some of the questions were crazy and none of Medicares business. (If you had to evacuate your home, where would you go? What’s the address there)
The Therapist said she hated all the paperwork. She just wanted to help people recover after surgery.
Worse, the paperwork is mostly performative, as my mother would carefully go over her medicare bills and report errors, and they would be paid anyway.
The paperwork is designed to employ more bureaucrats, whose “job” is to check and file the paperwork for no discernible future purpose.
An ambitious bureaucrat will keep generating new ideas for new forms, which will necessitate hiring more bureaucrats to check those forms. The ambitious bureaucrat creating the forms will be promoted to supervise the newly-hired bureaucrats checking and filing those forms, which the ambitious bureaucrat created.
Thus grows the bureaucracy!
And improves the job employment numbers for a given time frame.
There is no “care” or “health” in modern “healthcare” and for the most part, those who enter medical professions are trapped in a horrible system, and they know it but feel helpless to do anything about it.
Hubbs and I receive, from time to time, calls from the Medicare provider we’re signed up with, asking when (when – not if) we’d like to schedule a “home inspection”, purportedly to determine risk/fall assessment issues. We always respond that its not necessary; thank you and good-bye. We know its not about assessing risks for falling, but would likely seek info on gun possession, number of people in the home, types of pets and/or whether there are outside animals – such as chickens, maybe – and etc.
I love when the Dr. asks the, “are there are guns in the home” question. “Of course we have lots of guns in the house, doesn’t everyone?”
Before I was on Medicare I was a self pay.
When my husband and I visited a hospital for PT on my foot the therapist spent the first half hour going through the stupid questions (are you afraid in your home, are you afraid of your husband, and on and on). Since I thought I had gone there for useful PT and I was paying for it myself I was very irritated; The therapist finally figured out she was wasting both of our time, and even stayed a few minutes over the hour.
But I didn’t go back. Who wants to spend a fortune to help Big Brother compile a dossier on you?
Nannies…….that’s all they are.
2 Corinthians 3:17
The Sack of Rome: Elon Musk’s Digital Coup–Naomi Wolf:
“For a week, I’ve been savaged on X (which technologist Elon Musk, of course, co-owns), for urgently trying to warn people about what those few days in early February, 2025, when Elon Musk and five or six young engineers were alone with their devices plugged in to all our nation’s data, may represent. These few days represent a Rubicon that can never now be un-crossed, during which data and IP (intellectual property) captivation may have made Musk (and the people with whom he now allies) more powerful than any President…
Most genuine voices supportive of my efforts to warn the country, and Team Trump, I cannot see on X; an algorithm (controlled by Musk’s team) can do that – shadow-ban anyone, including anyone critical of Musk or of X. …
“Read only” does not just mean a human being reading. It can also mean copying, and machine reading. The copied data may be stored in less secure locations or used for purposes that are not originally intended or authorized. That is why cybersecurity frameworks emphasize that access controls must be part of a larger set of controls (including monitoring, encryption, and endpoint security) to truly safeguard sensitive information. So now, realize what Musk can have taken home.
More red flags involve who was with Musk, how he or she worked, and what is his or her expertise. News reports confirmed that with the Musk team was Tom Krause, CEO of Cloud Software Group. Krause is still CEO of that company, though he is also with DOGE. …
Musk, for his part, is still CEO of six companies. … We do not know what NDAs (non-disclosure agreements), non-competes (agreements that one will not use information accessed to compete), if any, Krause, Musk, or their engineers, have signed, or what conflict investigations they have undergone.
President Trump says there is no conflict:
“President Donald Trump said on Monday that the White House will ensure Musk does not go too far and that the White House has the ultimate say in decision-making. “Elon can’t do and won’t do anything without our approval, and we’ll give him the approval, where appropriate; where not appropriate, we won’t. But he reports in.” Trump explained.“If there’s a conflict, then we won’t let him get near it,” he said.”’
But is this possible for President Trump to know? The data troves involved are so vast, and the obligations by Krause and Musk to their own investors in multiple companies so substantial and legally binding, that as a CEO myself, I do not understand how President Trump can know that there is no conflict.
Also — look at who accompanied Musk.
If Musk’s role were simply to read the datasets and to propose cuts to the President, — a reasonable, even productive role for an advisor with Musk’s skills – why did he need a cloud computing guy, and engineers, with him?
Cloud computing CEOs store things; they store vast numbers of things. That is their job. What can hold all of that data, our data, if it is copied? It takes a “cloud” of one’s own.
Engineers build and change things. Why did Musk not simply need a team of analysts, and a stenographer, if he were to lawfully propose cuts to the President?
With a secure human-only read, protected by NDAs, non-competes, background checks, ideally with recusals from their other companies as well, and the basic cybersecurity guardrails itemized above, these DOGE could have given President Trump the same wonderful headlines about ferreting out corruption and waste he is getting now — but without our risking anything; let alone, without our risking everything.
But Team Musk chose not to do it that way – the clean way.
Team Musk did it like this instead: they looked at everything; not all of them had top-level clearances; and, according to reports, some of the engineers plugged their own devices into the systems. One of them, a teenager, turned out to have leaked internal proprietary data, in his last role, an internship. These are the kinds of horrific breaches of cybersecurity that makes cybersecurity experts turn white…
The separation of agencies’ datasets, under normal circumstances, and past privacy safeguards, all meant that no one could create a social credit score with the US government’s data, let alone use to it to target dissidents and critics. Now that protection is gone.
With these various filters on combined datasets, Elon Musk could out-compete any business — and also target any enemy. Musk does not even have to give the control grid to the government, which would be stopped by the courts, in any case, from using it.
Think about this. The President can’t use this theoretical control grid. But Elon Musk could.
Depending on where the data now live, which we don’t really know, Musk could keep this “everything app”, which he has promised to build, for his own purposes. Right now Musk describes the proposed “everything app” — which, interestingly, he announced at the end of last month — as combining payments and socials, just like the social credit system does in China.
His “everything app” could easily add, with these government datasets, medical records, vaccine records, mental health treatments, social networks, contracts, personal locations. A turnkey Big Brother social credit score…”
Read it all.
Naomi Wolf is right to voice these concerns.
Even when I disagree with him, I generally trust the President’s motives. But that trust does not automatically transfer to everyone around him.
Musk’s selfish behavior during the H-1 Visa controversy was telling. He lashed out with contempt and he certainly censors people who disagree with him.
We’re all thrilled to see the wicked UNIPARTY exposed. But it is possible to Expose the Corrupt while pursuing a selfish motive. The two are not incompatible.
Understanding the Fallen Nature of Man, our Founders & Framers sought to create checks and balances, levels and layers of competing spheres of influence, the better to preserve Liberty for the People. Thwarting that has been the Deep State’s project.
Even so, there has never been a complete Pushbutton Tyranny Machine that spits out your 5th-grade report card, your voting records, library records, consumer purchases, photographed mail, legal records, DNA, medical records, bank records, vaccine records, etc. etc..
We don’t want anyone to capture and blend all government files and private data for their own purposes.
Father God, we speak the defeat of any plan of tyranny and decree it will come to nothing. We loose Your Spirit of Liberty over our nation in the Mighty Name of King Jesus, Amen and Amen!
Hallelujah!

Scott Bessent says the gold is there. Did he do a physical audit?
This article says there are 147.3 million troy ounces.
Each troy ounce has a book value if $42.22.
What?*!
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/army-scott-bessent-donald-trump-louisville-american-b2701854.html
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/troyounce.asp
Below link has a troy ounce to dollar converter:
https://www.jmbullion.com/charts/gold-price/
Per Link: NY Fed has
6,331 metric tons or 507,000 gold bars
(see below link).
6,331 tonnes to troy ounces equals 203,546,225 troy ounces. (see converter link below).
1-ton = 32,150.7 troy ounces.
So NY Fed has 203,546,225
troy ounces and Ft. Knox has 147,300,000 troy ounces (or prox. 4,581 tons).
Ft. Knox has prox. 72% the volume/value of NY Fed.
Back to NY Fed:
203,546,225 troy ounces divided by 507,000 bars equals 401.47 troy ounces per bar or somewhere
(prox.) 25-lb per bar.
Fwiw: The standard flatbed
18-wheeler can haul 40,000 lbs or =20-tons(plus or minus).
A well-made wooden pallet can hold 2,000 pounds/one-ton.
So, for ease of visual,
20-pallets at 2,000-lbs each is a truckload (just for visual).
Based upon the NY Fed website, they have 507,000 gold bars.
If the bars weigh prox. 25-lbs, you could get 80-bars on a pallet (80 x 25-lb = 2,000-lbs) and 1600 bars on a truckload (20-pallets x 80-bars).
NY Fed has the equivalent of prox. 317 Truckloads
(507,000 bars / 1600 bars per truckload).
Ft. Knox has about 227-truckloads.
But the Forbes article says Ft. Knox has about 59% of the U.S. Treasury’s gold?
All the Federal Reserve Banks have to store gold with NY being the largest holder.
Did you know the NYFRB’s gold vault’s foundation is on bedrock?
Well, just all something to think about.
PS: I hope I did the math correctly so don’t hold me to it.
https://www.newyorkfed.org/aboutthefed/goldvault.html
https://metric-calculator.com/convert-troy-ounce-to-tonne.htm
https://sdbullion.com/blog/gold-brick-weight
https://thisvsthat.io/gold-bar-vs-gold-brick
https://www.forbes.com/sites/dereksaul/2025/02/20/musk-and-trump-question-fort-knoxs-400-billion-gold-supply-but-bessent-says-its-still-there-heres-what-we-know/
So, if Ft. knox has 59% of our nation’s gold reserves that means we have 41% stored elsewhere, which I would assume at the Federal Reserve Banks (see Forbes article above).
So, the USA should have gold reserves of something like 250,000,000 total troy ounces (143,700,000 / .59).
For ease of multiplication,
say gold is $3,000/ounce x 250,000,000 = $750,000,000,000.
We are +$36-Trillion in debt.
We have less than a one $Trillion ($750-Billion) in hard asset gold.
We are not on the gold standard now (ref: Pres. Nixon).
Our debt service is close to the value of our gold?
So in essence , our gold backs the interest payments on our debt.
If we were a bank, the FDIC would have taken us over long ago!
How do we overcome this?
Either the value of gold needs to go up to $150,000/ounce …
Or
We go bankrupt as a country.
We are on the precipice.
Is it possible that 47/DOGE can:
1. Claw back the stolen portions?
2. Receive forgiveness on some debt?
3. USA loans to sovereign nations become mortgage backed, etc. (i.e. Ukraine minerals).

I posted this or something similar the other day. People don’t seem to get the DOGE connection. I’ve added one of the replies:
Haywood Talcove, CEO of LexisNexis Special Services, testifies before the DOGE Subcommittee, stating that implementing strong ID verification could save $1 trillion annually in entitlements.
Oh heck! I pay my bills online and it is harder to make a payment than to buy something. They treat their PAYING customers like crap. Like what criminal is going to MAKE a payment?
That’s right! I thought it was just my experience. I have just ONE bill that I sometimes pay online right now, and it recently got so hard to do that we switched to over the phone.
Yes–Digital ID could easily be weaponized and be just another step to the Surveillance State.

Caution re Naomi Wolf. She makes her living selling her sometimes on the mark and sometimes whacky progressive feminist opinions. Her decrying of the covid shot, primarily because of effects on women’s health, hasn’t necessarily cleared her OccupyWallStreet thinking.

I know she’s not “pure conservative”. But she published the Pfizer Papers, which covered almost ALL the side effects. If they were ‘side’, and not central.
There are those in this grand nation that do not waste their breathe with useless ego babble…..

Good Morning Treepers,
Sorry I was too busy to post yesterday. Here is where the agenda is at CPAC. The website sucks.
https://site.m.cpac.org/cpac-in-dc-2025/agenda
Have to run to catch John Eastman. Looking for to seeing Kristi Noem and Karoline this evening.
I will post a few pictures here.
Youtube has the whole day. My link is waiting in approval so I will post in code.

Vance Rocks
Nigel was great. Check him out.
Gotta love Bondi
If that was her interview at CPAC …notice she really didn’t answer one question Cruz posed.
I have better shots of Elon, but this was a great moment. Javier and Elon were having a lot of fun.
Bannon did a great job of firing us up.
And on a crazy note, remember this guy?
Who is this man?
you will know sooooon….is relative to…kjf….
John John
How many nieces and nephews does his wife’s missing sister have
He pulled off a secret wedding. -too
Yes, he was sitting behind President Trump at Butler.
Great pics. Thanks for posting.
Fyi & Fwiw: Regular broadcast TV has been cutting in and out during CPAC. For instance today, UK’s ex-PM Liz Truss was a total blackout.
Technical difficulties?
I don’t think so.
Ok. Where are we with this budget bill? It looks like the Senate up a major battle over tax cuts on this. Can we really expect to get them in the final version? Or are we poised for running the government with continuing resolutions for the rest of our lives.
It’s always, “just this once”….
USAID…
The Norwegian people hate the immigrants, and the immigrants hate the Norwegian people.
Yet it continues.
Not like the RINOs, i.e. most of the Republican party, did anything against it or prevented the ultimate cause of the problem in the first place, allowing the installation of the senile puppet Manchurian Candidate in the White House by not challenging the validity of the 2020 election.

Yeah, Hawley will throw himself out there in 2028 for the presidency, trying to water down Vance primary votes.

@MamaButterBean
Since Aug of 2021 I wrote about LexisNexis,
A company that has 80 billion records, includes American social security numbers, Americans are clumped with criminals, foreigners with multiple social security numbers or wrong social security numbers, your social security number could be entered wrong. Your family is listed with you, all your dead relatives, everywhere you ever lived, all the cars you ever owned, all the homes you ever owned, all your email addresses, some social media posts and they give that information over to the government or governments. Remember those back door searches that were unconstitutional done by the FBI? How many stay-at-home workers in the government had access to this huge database? You ever been stalked, you ever not get the job you never told why? Somebody runs a background check and the information is wrong.
That huge database doesn’t contact you and ask you to verify the information. How much of America’s tax dollars has been paying LexisNexis for someone in the government to spy on you or use it against you? Like those back door searches! All you need is a business license to access it and somebody comes along and steals your identity. You can’t think for one second that large database company gives a crap. It’s all about making money. They sell it as safety and security

80 Billion Records – Stop Consuming me! Are you at risk?
https://daretochallengelearn.blogspot.com/2021/08/80-billion-records-stop-consuming-me.html?m=1
We all have experienced the psyche of Libtards. I have had to deal with People throughout the years of all stripes. I hate to admit it, but it is still a total mystery to me they can possibly think in the way they do.
What seems so obvious to me is off the charts for them. It is like they are another animal species. They look like us, but that is where it ends. One comes to realize the only solution is to defeat them.
Rationale, reason and commonsense are complete strangers to them. In the past year especially some people including family members I thought I knew have become in fact strangers who are definitely marching to the beat 0f a different drummer. Yes a drum from nowhere I have ever been.
Same here, Fangdog! These are not stupid people but they are so attached to their beliefs that they simply cannot accept that they have been lied to and manipulated for years, so they have to continue to spout ever increasing nonsense, because to do otherwise would force them to admit that they were wrong about so many things!
(Disclaimer – I have friends who are “staunch conservatives” who are almost as bad…continuing to repeat FAUX News talking points as if their life depended on it!)
I try very hard to get news from LOTS of different sources, and to do my own research, and I freely admit that I have been forced to change my position on many things over the years as more information has become available!
Agreed, folks here in Canada that know me, are literally stunned when they engage in “ TDS” ( as happened yesterday) when an casual acquaintance brought up his fear of war under President Trump.
We had never discussed politics and was visibly confused when I said Fox News 😟 was worse than CNN as it was controlled opposition.
The conversation went well as he was open minded and appeared to quite relieved when I stated that as a grandfather had never felt more comfortable with U.S. leadership. Especially as it related to Russia.
The individual happens to be a lonely 70 year old “ old school gay “ that is trying to “ tone down” the booze consumption.
It was good to see him smile..
Cheers!
“The conversation went well as he was open minded”
And therein lies the key, IMHO! People who are willing to listen, and rationally discuss the pros and cons of any given policy, are usually pleasantly surprised to find out that they actually have many common ideas and goals. BOTH sides of the political aisle have mastered the art of “weaponizing” the base to HATE everyone on the “other” side, which is how they have been able to rob ALL of us blind for the past 40+ years!
They huff and puff at each other in public and then go behind closed doors and strike deals that benefit themselves, their families, and the lobbyists who pay them millions, laughing together at the “rubes” who think they are back there fighting for us!
THAT is the conversation that we need to have with anyone who is willing to have it!
They can be very intelligent and still not be “independent thinkers”. By doing the work to get your news from multiple sources, and to be willing to have your mind changed, shows that you (and most here in the Treehouse) are “independent thinkers”.
Thank God these still exist!
My youngest son is academically gifted but intellectually lazy…I homeschooled both of my sons so I know how their brains work. The eldest fought hard for every grade and really wanted to understand the material. He remains a voracious reader and gifted thinker to this day, willing to engage in hard conversations when necessary. My youngest, on the other had, was blessed (or cursed) with a great memory so he could spit back what he had been told in order to ace the test, but he never put in the work to actually learn what it all meant!
He graduated, cum laude, from a highly rated university with a BA at age 20 and laughed about it, saying “I wonder what kind of grades I could have gotten if I had tried!” Now, he has his Master’s, but he only gets his news from late night hosts and left wing sources and refuses to engage in any kind of substantive discussions with us or read anything outside of his “bubble”. (We are seeing a SLIGHT thaw lately so continue to hope, pray, and wait – he really is a gifted young man, with a very compassionate heart, and if he would use the brain God has given him, he could do amazing things!)

The pattern is getting easier to read now. It appears that the Ukraine Peace deal is done.
Here is the tell the deal is done.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/02/msm-finally-reports-general-zaluzhny-absolute-favorite-win/
I say that because this and and other news bits out there prepare us for the end result.
Zelenskyy the powerless dictator puppet is done, arrangements for exile with UAE have been completed, Ukraine will have elections, USA will be repaid with minerals or other, we will send no more weapons, no NATO, new boundaries acceptable to Russia.
So… looks to me like that
the ink is dry. This guy will likely win with honest elections and the Ukraine Laundry is closed.
Zaluzhny would be a total disaster. He is a Nazi. He wears a hakenkreuz bracelet and has been photographed with it many times. He is very close buddies with the leadership of the neo-Nazi militias. He is a former military commander who supported/helped plan terrorist activities. If Russia’s true goal is denazification and de-militarization, then Zaluzhny would not be acceptable to Russia as a leader of Ukraine.
Mayhaps Russia shouldn’t get a say.
Shouldn’t the leader of Ukraine be chosen by the Ukrainians without interference?
Time to get out of the regime change / selection / puppet business.
Soooo….. you apparently do know nothing what happen in the glorious Ukraine 2014-2025……
Knowing all that, there is still a case for Ukraine electing the leader of their choice, without Russia’s approval.
If Zaluzhny is the choice of the people of Ukraine, then Russia will obviously not stop the conflict until Ukraine is completely ground down and its military dead or captured.
That is why it is important to elect a leader who is neutral to start with.
I agree.
Zaluzhny would be just another
Banderite puppet. Nothing would
change. It would probably be worse 😵💫😬
Hopefully, the Ukrainian people are
smart enough not to elect him.
🤷♀️
Maybe “honest” elections. There will only be women and some soldiers left to vote.
The folks who fret about “DOGE” having access to “government databases” should simply remember that government savants have had access to the same stuff for years.
Very probably, the most-lucrative business will be to sell “mass-storage devices.” So that all of this obsessively-collected ‘data’ can now be stored in endless warehouses … to be reviewed by: “Top … Men.” (Indiana Jones) 🤡
I know the Veterans Administration (or their vendors) sells it. As soon as my husband got issued some medical physical aid, there would be ads for competitive appliances on my tablet. My tablet. He didn’t have a tablet.
I had a friend who occasionally used my computer for correspondence with the marine corp. He was a retired marine. He died due to biden bonuses, not from covid but from the results of remdisivere & ventilator treatments in a catholic hospital. Now the marine corp corresponds with me constantly. We were never more than friends but I can’t get them to stop.
Sanity.
“The quantity of melanin in my epidermis” does not define me. It does not make me superior, nor does it make me a victim.
The real problems of social injustice in our society – and they certainly are real – cannot be defined by skin-tone. MLK “had a dream™,” but this must be understood in the context that it doesn’t matter which “color of their skin” it is.
The real problem that he was talking about – was to allow “skin tone” to enter as “a factor,” at all.
Yes, we’ve got vexing social problems that we must address. But “social injustice” can happen to anyone. The apparent correlation with “skin tone” is actually irrelevant. And it must not continue to cloud our thinking. “Correlation is not causation.”
It can affect your D3 level.

Sounded like the praise was for the people booing the Pfizer CEO.

Maybe he wanted to impress on Bourla how deeply despised the CEO of Pfizer is.

Trump, Musk To Discuss Sending US Taxpayers $5,000 Checks Using DOGE Savings | ZeroHedge
NO. Please don’t.
Do they really think that DOGE is creating disposable cash? All that has been done at this point (as will be the case for the indefinite future) is that they are documenting how the amount of the continually increasing overdraft will be a little less.
If they do this, they are continuing to spend money that we don’t have.
That’s like spending $500 out of my line of credit because I can get a real good deal on a new refrigerator when the old one is working fine. They are still spending money that doesn’t exist.
Just stop it.
Elon, I’m still waiting for your H1B apology and acknowlegement that understand something you didn’t understand before. Unless you still don’t understand and don’t intend to apologize. Elon???
I’d like to get $5000 to help compensate for the probably $20,000 extra I was forced to pay because of Bidenflation.
Agree. This money was stolen from me, without regard to spending or deficits. I want this money back and a whole lot more. The debt will be paid down, but I shouldn’t have to wait decades to see some benefit from that.
Amen.
I understand your point completely; however, I still don’t understand the logic of the Republic continuing to debt-spend in order to alleviate previous (and real) abusive spending.
Isn’t that like kiting checks? Or using credit cards to pay the utility bills?
Believe me, I understand: I don’t balance my checking account 3-4 times a month because I think it’s a cute practice. I do it because I can’t afford to make a $10 mistake and not be aware of it.
It is a pittance. Small businesses are butting up against credit limits due to huge spike in interest rates. Businesses will fail and there will be a domino effect.
Agree. Every $$ saved by DOGE is a $$ not borrowed! Every single $$ saved reduces the borrowing!
If and when the savings get to the point that the annual deficit is gone….only THEN maybe send tax payers a check, because ONLY THEN is it a return of tax $$ and not borrowed $$.
They can make it voluntary.
Those who want/need the money NOW can have the money.
Those who want/need to have the money put towards the debt can do so.
If you want to donate it to “the cause” then go ahead and do so. But do not force people who are very elderly, sickly, or poverty stricken to do what YOU want to do.
Some people could use $5,000 or will not live another 4 years to see The Golden Age of America happen.
You don’t get it.
Do you understand tne difference between tax revenue returned and borrowed money sent?
We are growing debt at $2T a year. If DOGE can find savings of, say $1T a year, please explain why some of those savings should be sent to citizens instead of JUST NOT BEING SPENT?
Or is it your stance that debt is good as long as YOU are getting the dough?
Claw back the stolen loot. For every $5000 returned, sell someone’s ill gotten Mercedes.
I get it. You do not ge it. I have been robbed every year since 1966! That is 58 years! Every Representative, every senator, every Washington beurocrat and many world leaders have caused the deficeit. I had nothing to do with it. Do not put the eliminating of the deficeit on my shoulders. If you want to personally pay off the deficit, go ahead.
OurLastStand said, “If you want to donate it to ‘the cause’ then go ahead and do so. But do not force people who are very elderly, sickly, or poverty stricken to do what YOU want to do.”
…but very poverty stricken would not be receiving the $500. It is spoken of as going back to taxpayers.
I do NOT consider myself “poverty-stricken”. I just don’t have any disposable cash. That is an entirely different issue….I’m just pointing out that it should not be assumed that those who don’t have any or much money are going to get the $500. BECAUSE IT IS SPOKEN OF AS GOING TO TAXPAYERS. (And if it has to be sent out, I would actually prefer it go to them instead of me–they are the ones being punched again and again [in addition to inflation, which we are all being punched by] right now)
W
$5,000. Why so hostile??
I am sure that they will find a way to get it to people. They say “taxpayers” but they don’t say “income taxpayers”. We are all taxed to death and not just through the income tax.
Even poverty stricken people pay taxes or the less-offensive word “fees” via gas taxes, sales taxes, property taxes, transfer taxes, DMV “fees”, auto registration “fees”, concert/entertainment “fees”, inspection “fees”, and many many more.
Poor people file income tax returns and get more money back than they pay into the system by claiming dependents and other such items. Add it onto their “deductions” and then pay them.
“get more money back.” IMO those earned income credits would be a great place to save some megabucks. Having prepared taxes in a previous life, it was easy to see how the system is played by savvy low-income workers.
Clawbacks are great.
I see both sides of this. On the one hand, I tend to agree that let’s just get back on sound financial footing ASAP.
The other side is more of a symbolic acknowledgment that the money is OURS — mine and yours — and not the government’s money in the first place. It serves the side purpose of helping people to feel the direct benefits of the efficiency moves to offset the inevitable tales of woe the press will inundate us with.
So you are saying that tne BORROWED money is “ours” and debt is good as long as YOU are getting tne grease?
I’m a fence sitter. I think it’s good PR to recycle a little bit of this waste back to the taxpayers, but the priority is getting the debt paid off asap.
Maybe something like savings bonds. If you need immediate cash- here’s X $, now. If you invest with the government and let it ride, you’ll receive XX $ when debt is paid off, or when certain milestones are reached.
Actually, what I’m saying (in addition to clawbacks) is that there is no connection between borrowing, spending and taxing. They are all completely independent of each other the way this Government has been run. They spend whatever they want, borrow whatever they think they can and tax more as a penalty than as a revenue stream.
The symbolic acknowledgement will be made to taxpayers, and I’m all for that. I don’t pay taxes any more because my low income doesn’t require me, too, however Bidenomics (%-wise) cost me as much (and I would argue hurt me more) as it did the current day taxpayer.
It is actually God’s money. He just let’s us use it.
It’s not money, it’s labor. It’s your time on this Earth that you are trading away to be able to provide for your family. They’re not stealing “money” they are stealing a valuable part of you.
Agree with something symbolic. Just not sure what that is. But the conversation certainly keeps people engaged. $$$ talks, and the discussion likely leads to low info voters paying attention to the corruption. Even if a refund/payment is ultimately not the result, the debate opens a lot of eyes!
I will take my $5000 please and…
and 10% for the aggie girl….
Nothing scientific, but I am seeing much more commentary that this isn’t real “savings” and that paying down the debt is vitally important, than I’m seeing “I want the 5k.”
Sending everybody 5,000 bucks from imaginary savings will make many people forget what a sneaky liar he is.
He? Who is he?
Sorry, I was responding to Sharon’s initial post and it got kind of lost in the shuffle.
“He” is Elon.
Hi, Clarion – I thought it was $500, not $5,000.
🙂 Well, shoot, if it’s already $5,000, then I want $15,000 or $20,000!
Have a good day, everyone. $20,000 would make my life easier for sure!!! 🙂
5000 bucks is a pretty cheap buyout to get support for the massive tax increase that all of President Trump’s Tariffs will lay on our wallet. Tariffs are nothing but tax on the end consumer. That means you pay it. The government gets the money.
You might not be celebrating trumps Tariffs so much when the inflation they cause takes an even bigger bite out of your back pocket or purse
If we must pay taxes thru tariffs then Get rid of the Income tax. and Fuel Tax.
It is true that tariffs will be paid by the consumer as are all taxes on producers. But tariffs will also make domestic products more competitive which will have the effect of stimulating production in this country, something we desperately need. IIRC Hyundai and Kia are both increasing production here in order to avoid the tariffs.
Yeah ever stop and think if other countries won’t pay the tariff we have more supply than demand here in America…
You know what that means prices go down.
I’m not one bit worried about the tariffs in the long run nor short term it will be just fine actually better.
.
…the massive tax increase that all of President Trump’s Tariffs will lay on our wallet. Tariffs are nothing but tax on the end consumer…
Not necessarily. My understanding is that tariffs won’t be passed on to the consumer if the importer eats them in order to stay price-competitive.
.
China will not devalue its currency this time to stay competitive and keep import prices down. As it did when the tariffs were levied during Trump’s first term.
They are ready for tariffs and will keep their Yuan stable. Showing the world their currency is stable. While the tariffs and their economic effects cause wild instability in the USD.
China is betting on this to make the Yuan more attractive as a Reserve Currency undermining the dollar.
You must realize China plans far into the future. They knew tariffs were coming and have made themselves Tariff proof.
The USD has been on a downward trend since January 20th. falling from 1.10 to 1.06 today because of anticipation of more tariffs.
America imports about 4 TRILLION dollars in goods every year.
We have been down this road before.
https://financialpost.com/news/economy/trump-tariffs-echo-failed-american-trade-policy
Originally, I wanted no part of it. It should all go to paying down debt, but Musk made a good point, this is a tax cut in a way and will have the same effect. Not too mention it will only be 20% of the savings. Most of the rest WILL go to paying down the debt.
The road to bankruptcy…..started when they allowed men in women’s bathrooms
America First Legal and Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier File Class Action Lawsuit Against Target for Misleading and Defrauding Investors Over Market Risks of LGBTQ Activism
Today, America First Legal (AFL) and Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, in partnership with Boyden Gray PLLC and Lawson Huck Gonzalez PLLC, filed a major class-action lawsuit against Target Corporation on behalf of the State Board of Administration of Florida. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, alleges Target knowingly misled and defrauded investors by concealing the financial risks of its radical LGBTQ activism, costing shareholders tens of billions of dollars.
https://aflegal.org/america-first-legal-and-florida-attorney-general-james-uthmeier-file-class-action-lawsuit-against-target-for-misleading-and-defrauding-investors-over-market-risks-of-lgbtq-activism/
To my recollection, Target was the first to publicly (and so proudly) announce they would allow men into women’s bathrooms. I was so upset about it I started seeking other shopping options. Target was the most convenient store for me to shop at in that time but I went out of my way to patronize other stores. So I can totally comprehend how their misogynist policy cost them $$$.
My target closed their men’s dressing room just to accommodate men in the women’s dressing rooms.
They also shut down an individual toilet next to the pharmacy, just to make sure the guy’s “rights” were protected.
People like to say the changing rooms don’t matter if the doors are high enough, but your young daughter could be in there trying on bikinis with her friends and when they go to leave, oopsie! The naked guy in the booth across from them “forgot” to close the door, or a man can wait until a solitary women enters the room and head in after her.
Target was also the place Michele Obama did a commercial for. Her appearance, anonymously shopping in Target (with Secret Service and a camera crew) was all over the media, so yes, it was a commercial.
Our family still boycotts Target…and Coke…and Disney…etc., etc.
Never have shopped at Target, and don’t drink any pop, so those two never affected me…but I have so many good memories of Disneyland, both when I was a child and my own kids were young. I would love to be able to take my grandchildren there someday, so I do really hope that they do a COMPLETE about face on the DEI crap they have been pushing and publicly admit they made a mistake!!
Yup go woke go broke. Disney stock dropped 100 dollars since the boycott started. They are freaking out trying to backpedal on their wokeness to get the stock back up. But people have long memories. Seeing queers making out on the roller coaster in front of children is disgusting
Good work to all boycotters! keep it up.
We quit shopping at Target for that reason and told them so.
Chairman Comer: How President Trump is Disrupting the Administrative State (18:32)
American Thought Leaders
20 Feb 2025
Today at the 2025 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), Jan Jekielek talked to Congressman James Comer (R-Kentucky), chair of the House Oversight Committee, to discuss the Trump administration’s aggressive push to root out waste and fraud—from AI-driven fraud detection to investigating apparently deceased individuals in the Social Security database.
James Comer also discusses how the situation on the border has changed since Trump took office, how to tackle the poultry crisis, and what the newly created Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets will be up to.
From that, it sound like DOGE is applying the same sort of database cross-correlation software used by Fractal to find that voter rolls are packed with garbage (see below) and how NGOs are used to support leftist causes. Fractal’s videos about that are found here:

Election Validity Group Files Landmark Lawsuit in Pennsylvania
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/06/election_validity_group_files_landmark_lawsuit_in_pennsylvania.html
Audit The Vote PA, a non-partisan, non-profit organization. Although not a named petitioner, they also uncovered overwhelming evidence of registration problems in the 2020 and 2022 elections. For the 2022 election they found:
54,463 people voted in a county in which they were no longer living; and 8,177 people voted despite not actually living in Pennsylvania;
6,356 people were credited as submitting a mail-in ballot, but did not have any votes credited in Pennsylvania’s SURE system;
69,832 mail ballots were sent to an address unaffiliated with the voter’s registration;
18,589 people requested multiple ballots be sent to multiple addresses, with some people requesting additional ballots to be sent to up to four (4) separate addresses; and
5,492 registrations show as having two votes on record in two separate counties.
United Sovereign Americans peer-reviewed data teams analyzed Pennsylvania’s voter registration data from the 2022 general election and found “hundreds of thousands of voter registration apparent errors in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. These apparent errors were not uniform across Pennsylvania — some counties had far more registration apparent errors than others.”
Out of 8,755,458 voter registrations, there was a total of 3,192,069 voter registration violations including:
20,097 illegal duplicates, where the same voter has multiple registrations
43,083 illegal or invalid vote history
28,256 backdated registrations
268,493 registrations where the period of active registration conflicts with the registration participation
448,335 invalid or illogical registration dates
633,508 illegal or invalid registration changes
154,913 registrants with questionable address
1,580,750 registrations with records altered after certification
They found 1,198,598 evident voting violations, and 1,089,750 unique votes impacted by apparent voting violations, including:
8,026 illegal duplicates, where the same voter has multiple registrations.
340,266 invalid or illogical registration dates
632,215 illegal or invalid registration changes
59,609 registrants with questionable addresses
138,291 registrants with altered votes after certification

So how is that law suit progressing?
Treasury Secretary says all the gold is there. The problem is the fact that the last audit was supposedly done in September 2024. A lot of things changed since. I certainly don’t trust the shadows that were running the government prior to January 20, 2025.
I also don’t think it should be live-streamed but I certainly understand the reason Musk wants that $$$ for X.
“Pres. Trump Announces Plan to Inspect Fort Knox Gold Reserves to ‘Make Sure the Gold is There” — Musk Suggest to Do Livestream”
Excerpts:
President Donald Trump announced Thursday his intention to personally inspect the United States’ gold reserves housed at Fort Knox.
This announcement comes amid growing speculation regarding the actual contents of the United States Bullion Depository.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) has called for a long-overdue audit of the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox—reportedly something that hasn’t happened in nearly 50 years.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has sought to quell the burgeoning speculation.
In a recent interview, Bessent claimed that there’s an audit every year and that all the gold is present and accounted for.
“I can tell the American people on camera right now, there was a report, September 30th, 2024, all the gold is there. Any US senator who wants to come and visit it can arrange a visit through our office,” Business Insider reported.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2025/02/pres-trump-announces-plan-inspect-fort-knox-gold/
The gold may be physically there, but has it been contractually pledged to anyone else? Who has actual ownership of it?
This isn’t a difficult issue. The People want to see it all. It’s ours. Show it to us. Verify that it’s real. Words are cheap.
All the posturing is worthless.
Agree. Just do it and put an end to all the speculation.
I see that Jeff Bezos is on the lookout for the next James Bond as the long-time producers of the Bond movies have given Amazon the right to make subsequent Bond movies.
I think it would be great to have a sort of sequel of “Goldfinger”!
The claim the Fort Knox gold was audited in September 2024, so we can all RELAX, is ridiculous.
Would a bank president try to tell a surprise auditor, “Hey, RELAX, we counted the cash in our vault last September.” ????
Would you rely upon the $100 cash being in your wallet last September still being there when you had not opened your wallet since last September?
I worked for banks for 35 years. The FHL bank auditors were like the mafia. We always hated to see them arrive and was always glad to see them go.
There is NO REASON a TV film crew cannot accompany armed security guards in a Fort Knox gold vault walk-thru. It would be immediately obvious on a TV broadcast if a sizeable pile of gold was present. It would be a far superior confirmation than finding a briefcase full of IOU’s in the Fort Knox vault (as seen in the movie, “Dumb and Dumber”).
In that movie, the two morons argued, “Hey, these IOU’s are as good as cash.”
How are they wrong?
In inspection is nothing but theatrics. A full audit is needed. They could be looking at gold plated Tungston bars for all they know.

Congressman Ron Paul first ask to inspect Fort Knox……and now his son…
Not the best of language but says it in a nutshell
Somebody mentioned yesterday that they thought Mike Flynn’s presence at the White House was significant (or words to that effect).
That made me think of this:
He has been in the background, advising Walz and others.
I’m sure he has been busy working with and guiding DOGE in advance of the DoD audit. As everyone already knows, Gen. Flynn “knows where the bodies are buried” in the black budget and elsewhere. He himself has said so.
Maybe President Trump calling him out the other night for having declined “like ten positions” caused him to go have a sit down with the WH to discuss what official position he might be convinced to take. Not one that would require confirmation, I would suppose – he has suffered enough grief without going through a confirmation process.
I thought Hegseth might choose him to convene the Plucking Board, but let’s see what happens.
Mike Flynn lost me when he went Q annon…. 🤣🤦♂️🤷♂️
I’m a bit fixated on the Rebecca Marodi story. This is the lesbian LA fire chief who was stabbed 2 days ago (?) and the lib mob immediately blamed Trump and MAGA, but it turns out the prime suspect is her “wife” Yolanda who has a violent criminal history and spent 10 years in prison for stabbing her husband. Yes, the “wife” of a lesbian had been married to a man. Really great choice there, Rebecca. If anyone thinks maybe Rebecca didn’t know about her “wife”‘s background, Yolanda’s crime and imprisonment occurred in California and is part of the public record.
We’re still being blamed for it by ignorant libs on X:
It would not be the first time Trump incites individuals to commit violence. Still blows my mind how people could vote for someone filled with so much hate.
Trump manbaby snowflake surrender monkey must take responsibility for this.
This is only the beginning of the violence against women and minorities we’re going to start seeing. I say this again, anyone who told me maga and trump wasn’t a big deal: You are the problem
This murder is on Trump & Musk
Not like Hitler…huh..
But here is a voice of sanity:
Never forget – they tried blaming it on Trump.
I personally knew and worked with Becky. She was a great person. Regardless of her personal life choices outside of work, it’s very tragic.
Getting involved with the wrong person has been the downfall of many people.
What do you think about libs immediately blaming MAGA for it?
Had not even heard about this stabbing until seeing your post! And the Left is blaming it on Trump inciting violence against minorities? Seriously? Of course, this is the same department that hired the “Diversity Chief” that blamed other firefighters for the fact that she isn’t strong enough to get them out of a burning building…
It seems the LA FD used pride parades as job fairs…
Not LAFD, also Becky had 25+ years of service starting well before the current hiring trends.
To flip it on the lefties, she’d be alive today if her ex got the death penalty for her first murder.

These live, open townhalls, a word of caution. Dave Brat (Virginia) did these and got slaughtered. Abigail Spanberger (his opponent) would sit in the front row and just smile at him. Of course, once she stole his seat, she used COVID as a reason to do townhalls via telephone, and continued after. She wouldn’t stand in front her voters. As for the GA rep, no one knows if these folks are his true constituents. If NBC is reporting such an event my spidey senses tells me this might be a set-up.

Yes, really. It’s easy. Chief of Staff sends out a note on behalf of the President to DoD and State asking for letters of resignation from all ambassadors and flag officers.
“Before much longer we are going to be a different country, and most probably a better one.” James Kunstler
“The difference now is that the Democratic Party no longer has its hands on the levers of power. Different managers are in place at the critical agencies, most particularly Pam Bondi at DOJ, Kash Patel at the FBI, Russell Vought at OMB, Lee Zeldin at EPA, and Elon Musk in the DOGE.
In the past, nothing was done about these shenanigans. This time is different. The Democratic Party will lose its principal means for staying alive. That’s why senators like Chuck Schumer, Chris Coons, and Adam Schiff are out mewling and hollering in the streets.
Meanwhile, the blob is getting methodically disassembled, one bureaucratic office at a time. Before much longer we are going to be a different country, and most probably a better one.”

Like the VOA (Voice of America)/USAID people involved in the Greta Thunberg Saga in 2018 – Greta sailed over to NY to make her speech at the UN – then they filmed when President Trump walked past her, she was scowling like a psychotic little witch at him – I mean, it was so nuts – then she went to visit former President Obama at his office and that was a totally different look for Greta, somewhat shy, diffident, admiring – so was she directed to do that scowling at President Trump to give a contrast to the Obama meeting? President Trump didn’t DO anything, he was just filmed walking past her –
so, I would like to know who directed the entire thing and how much did the entire thing cost the American people, if USAID shelled out all the money –
did they pay for Greta’s trip over on the sail boat?
did they pay for the direction of the “movie” that appeared on youtube?
looking at that glimpse of a painting or etching or something of a clenched fist in the hallway at Obama’s office as he walked out to greet Greta, did USAID pay for the artist’s work?
how did Greta get over to Hollywood to have an interview with Ellen DeGeneres? Did she hop on that sailboat again and go through the Panama Canal . . . or did she skateboard over to a location in mid-town Manhattan where they set up a replica of the “Ellen” set? Did USAID pay for that?
Did the USAID pay the Guardian for their video of the meeting between former President Obama and Greta Thunberg?
All that was taking place DURING the administration of Donald J. Trump the first time!
I have been harping on this since I first saw the video – very gratified to see all of the reveals re USAID!
I’m getting really, really tired of the “conservative” commentators on radio and tv constantly giving the Democommunists advice on how to make a comeback.
I don’t watch much of it, but I think its kinda funny. Both sides know what they need to do, but both sides know they won’t do it. The Trump side has claimed all the territory a few steps left of center and the entire right side. The lefties have nowhere to go. The move a smidgen toward sanity and what base they do have remaining goes feral.
If our God does not condemn us,
Who against us then will stand?
Will the Lord who died for sinners,
Who is now at God’s right hand?
What could take us from Christ Jesus?
Neither hunger, sword, nor pain!
Neither life nor death shall part us
From the Lamb for us once slain.

Could you imagine a world without the taxman?

Yes, absolutely. I am in the hole big time this year, and am holding off on submitting my filing with the hopes that there will be some changes in the tax code before April 15th.

FTA “Donald Trump‘s envoy heaped praise on a ‘courageous’ Volodymyr Zelensky in an apparent stunning U-turn just hours after the U.S. president branded him a ‘dictator’. Keith Kellogg, a retired Army Lieutenant General, issued the comments following a meeting with Zelensky in Kyiv days after U.S. negotiators sat down with top Russian officials in Saudi Arabia. He posted on X: ‘A long and intense day with the senior leadership of Ukraine. Extensive and positive discussions with Zelensky, the embattled and courageous leader of a nation at war and his talented national security team.’Trump’s envoy also reposted Zelensky’s own positive analysis of their meeting, which the Ukrainian leader said had ‘restored hope’. It came after the White House had told Zelensky to stop his ‘insulting’ criticism of President Trump.
Trump had previously stunned world leaders by tearing into Zelensky and even appeared to blame him for Russia ‘s 2022 invasion of his country. The White House continues to apply pressure for Ukraine to sign a pact that would hand the U.S. joint access to its mineral resources to pay for past military aid.”
That was a surprise to me, anyone else or is that just positioning to get the deal done? Tough guy President Trump, good guy General Kellogg negotiating the deal??? Just wondering? For the record I don’t believe Zelensky is ‘courageous’ more a thief than a statesman!!!
This bears out what my most knowledgeable source of Ukraine matters, who is VERY pro-Ukraine, was just saying about the Trump statement suggesting Ukraine started the war.
He said that we should wait and see, because Donald Trump is known for his deal making and this might just be part of his strategy.
I believed it was an appropriate time to take him (PDJT) seriously but not literally.
There’s a lot of propaganda flying around over this war, from multiple sources, and an awful ot of people are quick to believe what they want to hear.
Well the Ukrainians did start the war at our behest! The color revolution of 2014, the encouraging of the AZOZ Nazis to murder ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine to get a proxy war with Russia in the hopes that Nuland and Power could get color revolutions going in a weaken Russia having toppled Putin to break it up into several countries controlled/run by our IC bad guys!!! Well that’s what I believe!!!
…. And yes, it sucks to accept that we are the bad guys! -Sundance 5/1/24. Hopefully someday soon Sundance will be able to repeal that succinct statement of truth!!!
2014 couldn’t be Zelensky’s fault, then.

I noted a couple days ago, Zelensky is to his country like Kim Jong Un is to his country. Neither makes a decision without their masters OK. Hopefully, Trump can pick up where he left off with N Korea.
I keep reading articles about the House or the Senate doing something which will further President Trump’s agenda. Or not.
I don’t remember other presidents’ administrations being so all about making a certain agenda happen, it seems like previous presidents were concerned about getting to BE President and enjoy the trappings associated with it.
This is a time of action, very pointed action, and everyone, even those who disagree with it, recognizes that.
Looking good at CPAC. Hours of discussions. We should have a separate thread to cover it. Eastman was great. Kari Lake Now!
