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.

Since the Marxist Dim hypocrites are continuing to Destroy their so-called democracy by refusing to do their elected jobs and are violating their Oaths of Office just to keep Schumer’s Shutdown in effect,…. is it now time for Transportation Sec., Sean Duffy to order all US airlines to refuse to fly any Marxist Dim member until after they quit their illegal temper tantrum that is hurting all Americans and threatening the Safety of US Air travel now,….and these miscreants vote to reopen our Fed Govt???
What say, Donald? Ground’em all,.. put’em all on a NO FLY list??? Do I hear a 2nd to the Motion?
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/11/07/watch-live-breitbart-news-holds-a-policy-event-with-transportation-secretary-sean-duffy/
If you hear a 2nd for that kind of motion, it won’t be from President Trump, nor from Transportation Secretary Duffy.
Would be it from a military ??…..if soo it’s about the time to stop this F*games…..
Here here, I second the motion. I know, I do not count but hey, I feel good seconding this motion.
I would like to point out the great dangers of DC and NYC being served by three airports with air traffic controller understaffing.
Closing down LaGuardia and National would reduce the possibility of collisions and I urge Trump to act ASAP.
Me too! (They were happiest when the system was being dismantled.)
Not just the youth!! Those of us who are the parents of “the youth” and who are trying to encourage them to work hard and be rewarded for doing so are getting increasingly frustrated as well! The Republican’ts are just as much of a problem as the Dims, IMHO!
Not just Gen X either. Some of us Boomers tried to get others to see where those “status quo” policies would end up. Now I know how Jerimiah felt. Time to burn the status quo in the Republican party to the ground and piss on the ashes.
Here are 8 low-hanging fruit items that would result in a GOP sweep of the midterms:
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1986528088264757518.html
Norman Rockwell depicted what appear now to have been idyllic days. And he depicted them beautifully.
I don’t use X so can’t unroll the eight items. Could someone please post them on here?
Hint: If you click on the link, it opens to a website and you will be able to see them unrolled 🙂
Only a sweeping primary defeat of the useless RINOs and weak Republicans will work.
I don’t quite understand all of them. The assumable loan provision is interesting, but doesn’t work if the seller then has to negotiate new debt at higher rates as well as higher prices. It would certainly help where people want to move to smaller rented housing where the maintenance and repair and building insurance expense requirements are borne by the landlord. At lower interest rates for the buyer, Sellers would be able to ask higher prices.
Good stuff. Incentivizing selling
starter homes to tenants is a great idea.
Often the landlords moved up and can finance the sale themselves, so higher interest rates provide a nice annuity. Or, as noted, lower interest rates make higher sales price possible.
Both the tenant and owner win.
I always thought they should do this for section 8 tenants. A rent to own provision. Why should the government not get to eventually own what they pay for?
Excellent! Now, how to get them in front of the President and Sec Bessent.
There are not as many republican senator hard no’s on eliminating filibuster as there once were. Here’s a list of the RETARDS!. Of Course: Rand Paul, Mitch McConnell, Thom Tillis, Ted Cruz ?, Lisa Murkowski. These are the hard No’s.
Thune and James Lankford have also expressed opposition.
The holdouts must be having something to hide.
For the most part they’re starting to crack as a majority coalition of obstructionists.
https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5592169-gop-filibuster-trump-pressure/
Hard RI-NOs.
I still think Thune should Adjourn the Senate. The Democrats would hate that, but they have basically done that with the Filibuster.
Then President Trump could get his nominees in. The Democrats heads would explode.
But Thune won’t do that because he’s an Establishment UniParty RINO, IMO
Still need to end the filibuster, and the blue slip nonsense, to be able to remediate the long standing most important issues. The judicial system, removing and replacing with competent people.
I agree, but it’s not going to happen with the group we currently have in the Senate. They would rather see the country go back to the Democrats and Socialism than give President Trump a win.
We are on the verge of losing our country and claim they are standing on principle.
If we had a Congress and Senate that were really principled and committed to our Constitutional Republic we wouldn’t be in the mess we are in today.
yeah was gonna say, thune absolutely does not want to give trump that power.
what i wish they would do is ACTUALLY make them filibuster. it is my impression from civics classes a looong time ago that what we are usually referring to is cloture, not a true filibuster. IMO thune should let them keep the filibuster if they literally stand there, 24/7, and talk. make them refuse cloture every hour or so by calling for one, and then they can resume standing in front of america acting like jackasses.
All it takes to adjourn is one senator, ONE!, to request adjournment. I’ve called my two douche senators here in TN, everyone call theirs.
Did you ever think that eliminating the filibuster is precisely what the democrats are after here? The left knows if they hold out long enough the pressure will be on republicans to either compromise on the CR or eliminate the filibuster. Either way the left wins.
If there is a CR compromise the left will celebrate “the republicans caved”. If republicans eliminate the filibuster the democrats will claim unfair, bad republicans, our democracy is over etc. and when they win a majority, which they someday will, they will use the rules to reverse everything Trump has done and ram through a Mamdani agenda that can not be stopped.
So why are a bunch of you cheering for a democrat win and a strategy that weakens republicans in the future? Does anybody think the republicans could hold out for 40 days of shutdown? Even with the filibuster the republicans will not use it as effectively as democrats. The democrats don’t care whether republicans can implement PDJT’s agenda or not, they know sometime in the future, they will roll it all back.
No, republicans need to say the democrats continue to vote NO to open the government. That’s all. Just go on every legacy media they can and say “The democrats have voted xxx times against opening the government. A NO vote means NO while republicans continue to vote YES to open the government and fully fund all the programs.” Then start listing names of democrats and how many times they voted to stop SNAP payments, to stop paying air traffic controllers, to stop paying our military, to stop funding children’s programs, and on and on until the talking heads cut them off.
“Did you ever think that eliminating the filibuster is precisely what the democrats are after here?”
DING DING
they ARE going to take over congress, and we WILL regret it deeply once that happens.
It would foolish to think that if Republican don’t change voting rules that Democrats would show the same restraint given a chance.
You are correct and I am tired of watching these RINOs pretend to help Trump when they do the exact opposite. If Republicans still think that Democrats have a good bone left in their bodies, perhaps they are not smart enough to be in government.
This new version of Democrat will end the filibuster and stack the Supreme Court when it regains power. These are not regular Democrats now, these are Burn It All Down Democrats.
We call them Commies where I am from…🖖🏻
It can always be voted on to reinstate.
Really? That’s like removing a finish line before the leader crosses it and then putting it back for the one in second place. No, the democrats want removal of the filibuster but they don’t want to be the ones who do it! They are using republicans to give them what they want, total power and rule sometime in the future.
Filibuster is where in the Constitution again?
You have got to be kidding me…….The dems don’t want us to think they are the bad guys who removed the filibuster……LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Yeah, that was a real winner wasn’t it?
It’s not if the filibuster is going to be ended, it’s whoever makes the preemptive strike first, is going to be able to get what they want done.
It’s a no brainier situation, a dilemma only for the cowardly cognitively impaired, mute point.
It’s either Conservatives do it now for all the right reasons, or sit on their hands and watch themselves and America be destroyed.
Trump started the truth about how the filibuster must be ended early on to give enough lead time for the slow to realize that it has to be done, don’t see him letting up on it either. It’s a do or die situation in reality is why.
If Republicans kill the Filibuster, they sail to Victory for many years to come. If they don’t, DISASTER waiting to happen!
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115509306635941834
👍Agree with you. I can envision Rand Paul standing on some war principle as a soldier under General Patton.
Patton would turn him into a whimpering baby which is what he is.
We are losing our country because of people like him- Kentucky, get rid of him. He is not serving you well.
JMHO
If the Republicans remove it now, they can pass the safe act and put them in the corner for ever. They don’t want to do it as they want to give Trump a win less than Democrats do. Their constituents need to put them on notice. Do it to save the country or resign.
Yes, it can be reinstated, just as the Democrats constantly change the rules in the middle of the game, if we’re going to be dealing with a Uniparty bird/vulture, then the newly MAGA Republican party needs to step up and play by those new rules.
You don’t seem to grasp that when the democrats regain power, they will do this themselves. They don’t care that you know they hate you and want to steal your tax dollars. They don’t even pretend to hide it.
Oh my goodness, you are crazy.
Ending the filibuster is a hoo hum to the voters….don’t even know what it is…..as far as no options ….looks like that is a republican problem….they have no option but to end it. The dems will do it no matter what when back in the majority and that will be because the republicans will get absolutely 0 done that is meaningful to the voters. Dems will block any and everything. Dems don’t care who dies because of the rhetoric or policies they have shown that to be the case. Here is a novel idea….end the filibuster then get so much positive done for the people that they will never want the dems back in power.
You do not achieve progress and long lasting improvement in government by sitting back playing defense and letting things happen to you.
As Trump has stated, you remove the filibuster and pass the agenda. The earliest Democrats could potentially win Senate and Presidency is 2028.
By 2028, people will have seen the good and benefits of the laws passed and Democrats will not be able to win. Especially with fixing the election law loopholes. People advocating for keeping filibuster don’t have confidence in the simple truths of conservative values to better the lives of Americans.
I have read that you can get the CR through with reconcilliation, if so, go that route and do not give up the filibuster. But for sure also get rid of the stupid blue slips since dems ignore them when they are in control.
“The Congress shall have power to dispose of…the territory …of the United States…”
ARTICLE IV. SECTION 3
A Republican Congress can cast off New York City. That would mean no more federal welfare money to NYC. Or sell it to Somalia for $1.
A Republican Congress can cede many of the low-income Democratic areas of California back to Mexico unless the Proposition 50 panel adopts a redistricting map prepared by the RNC.
Red states can turn over their territory for federal open carry ‘bases of freedom’ which can then be made into independent countries.
You live most of your lives within a few square miles.
Each country’s treaty of friendship with the USA would bar foreign forces from the country and provide for transit rights throughout the US.
The constitution of each new country would forever bar government lending and borrowing & income, property and wealth taxation.
What about the $40 trillion in US debt? Not a problem for the new countries.
There’s nothing stopping states from hiring people to watch radar screens and airport cameras and to broadcast advice over the radio waves.
It could be the very people who are supposed to usually do it.
Add Kennedy
I don’t think he will end up being a hard sell, he has to much commonsense.
Yep.

The Supreme Court Hears the Trump Tariff Case: Time for Plan B?
https://jonathanturley.org/2025/11/06/the-supreme-court-hears-the-trump-tariff-case-time-for-plan-b/
For sure! For me, Gorsuch, if there was any question, exposed himself as a clear globalist-Trump hater … Searching for anything – major questions doctrine – to hide behind and pretend the authority to impose tariffs was not granted by congress under IEEPA. But, but they didnt mean to do it, …. and, and they can never get it back. Hey Gorsuch – are you shorting the USD?
When it comes to important matters of concern to the Financial Puppet Masters .. the rotten 4 (Roberts, Kavenaugh, Gorsuch and Barrett) can be counted upon to vote against the good of the US Republic.
During his confirmation hearings, it was clear that he had nothing but contempt for President Trump. He never should have been appointed.
The irony is that that two of the principles in the case are actually US owned front companies for foreign manufacturers. Those companies produce ZERO in the US, assume ownership of their foreign produced products at the Foreign Factory Door and were paying ZERO import tax by shipping their products using de minimus shipping methods.
There are essentially foreign surrogates suing the US.
I didn’t know that. I wonder why President Trump hasn’t announced that.
From what I’ve read, they have several other statutes they can invoke, some of which are more clear cut. I think they’re a long way from being defeated.
THE 2024 ELECTION DID NOT SAVE YOUR NATION–Julie Green:
Rest in the Vine: “Christmas in November” by Dr. Manuel Johnson
Whatever happened to the video of the older gentlemen, maybe USSS, that was beginning to rush up to the stage from behind PDJT, while below the podium, just before the shot was taken? Nobody ever seemed to follow up on that guy’s behavior.
Julie Green is a national treasure – she pull no punches and is 100% Bible and God focused and DOES NOT BEG FOR MONEY OR SPONSORS
This may contain pieces of reasonable, human, political advice.
But the fact that it is presented as the voice of God speaking directly to us through a human medium makes me, as a traditional Christian, very wary.
People get to believe what they want. I side with the Christians who believe that God has revealed everything He intends to reveal to us, through all time, in the Bible. Sola Scriptura.
From my Browser’s AI: “Julie Green Ministries reported a revenue of $4,490,108 in 2023, according to its most recent Form 990 filing. This figure represents the total income generated by the organization during that fiscal year. While some sources estimate the ministry’s revenue to be around $5 million in earlier years , the most accurate and recent data available indicates the 2023 revenue was approximately $4.49 million.”
2 Timothy 4:3-4: For the time will come when they will not listen to the sound doctrine, but having itching ears, will heap up for themselves teachers after their own lusts, and will turn away their ears from the truth, and turn away to fables.
[ I … believe that God has revealed everything He intends to reveal to us, through all time, in the Bible. Sola Scriptura.]
Me, too, OldDog – you speak Truth.
I rely on these scriptures, none of which have an expiration date:
Ephesians 4:11 So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers,
For the Lord Jehovah doth nothing, Except He hath revealed His counsel unto His servants the prophets.–Amos 3:7
Proverbs 29:18
Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint,
but blessed is he who keeps the law.
I also believe Our Father wants His Children to have life more abundant, including finances, but not money to have them.
Personally, I find it unbelievable that the most Creative Being Ever ran out of things to say two thousand years ago.
As always, ask Him!
cuz the internet and AI are correct all the time right and cant be manipulated….um K
There were prophets in the Bible …..just sayin
Thune “Willing To Give Democrats All The Things They Want” As Friday Shutdown Vote Looms
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/thune-willing-give-democrats-all-things-they-want-friday-shutdown-vote-looms
If that’s the case, why wait this long? Effing Republicans are worthless. Such crappy leadership.
If that RINO caves to this extortion by leftists, America as we ever knew it is done. Like the slow motion train wreck of the EU, giving in to the left’s nation bankrupting demands, will absolutely end the US.
Thune IS NOT “willing to give Dems all that they want”.
Dems want a guarantee that subsidies will be reinstated. All Thune is offering is a post shutdown vote on them.
Would a vote get 51 “ayes”? Maybe. Would it pass the House? Maybe…..unless Johnson refuses to bring it up.
Headline is deceptive. Typical zerohedge antics.
yup. what they WANT is to hide their BS behind the CR – which is incidentally why i remain deeply opposed to anything other than an actual budget.
thune has told them they can vote on each addition separately from the clean CR, which would make them go on record for stuff that all of america will hate them for.
(old playbook)
weasel in
so as have some one give an inch…
…
and then take a mile.
[ that’s the slippery slope that has miss lead to $ 37 trillion debts ]
Just to get a vote on a nominee for an appointment…
the dems were weaseling for money ( not for good for country reason(s))
…and after maybe agreeing on a relatively small sum,
…the goal got moved, and they wanted more money… it kept, going and going… (not in a good way, unless one miss thinks that corruption / spin is good. – but it is not.)
dems demanding, from article
demanding over _____ Dollars in order to approve a small number of our highly qualified nominees, who should right now be helping to run our Country.
(and if one said o.k., they would want more)
Did someone say that there is $ 37 trillion in U.S. debts…
(where does dems spending more, help to solve that, too often unsaid, problem? uhhhh…. there is a history to the contrary…)
https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-chuck-schumer-democrats-stall-nominations-2108098
The deep state is having some success at the moment pushing back against Trump. The Senate, the multiple narratives channeled through the usual propaganda machines, the continuation of stolen elections and referendums, the negotiations to open government, which will probably leave year long or more bad deals on appropriations to get us past the mid-terms, and the all out push to destroy the American economy with the removal of tariffs–as they’re Trump’s most effective weapon–to use as the means to cloak the theft of one or both houses of Congress.
Our intrepid fighters of the Senate who never seem to find the fortitude to actually do something unless of course it affects them: John Thune McConnell Jr leading the way, Ted Cruz in his usual by the book mode, and Rand Paul falsely claiming that tariffs are taxes that must originate in the house.
This is not a, “woe is me let’s throw in the towel” statement, but rather a non-pretending look at the tactical situation and a reminder of just how strong the forces President Trump faces every day are.
God bless him!
you don’t have to qualify your statement. If people don’t like to hear the obvious truth, that’s ok. Let them gripe.
Trump has been in this alone since day 1. The GOP will do nothing or will work to undermine him, but they will not work any of his core agenda items legislatively. Not ever. He is a one-man-show that runs out Jan 2029.
He was supposed to have us and yet many of We the People continue to sit on our couches….or sit typing gripes on our computers.
The Republicans have no fight or passion. They just go along to get along. They fight more against each other than against the Democrats.
The Democrats have directed the heir attacks on President Trump personally. He a lier, felon, fascist, rapist, etc. He’s destroying our country like Hitler, etc.
They don’t argue results or policy, it’s all about driving hatred of Trump.
The Republicans should argue passionately that he Democrats are trying o destroy our country. They have plenty of evidence to cite-open boarders, election fraud, sanctuaries cities, resisting ICE lawful activities, healthcare cost ACA, CR Shutdown..l.and so many other examples.
Make the Establishment Media defend their policy action-They are moving our country away from a Constitutional Republic to Socialism.
Call it for what it is and make he argument about them instead of what they he latest thing Trump said. Get passionate.
But they won’t because they are go along to get along Establishment UniParty RINOS
JMHO
Sadly ironic that Republican’ts are the Death Of The Republic almost 250 years in.
POTUS says KEEP IN MIND: we inherited the HIGHEST INFLATION EVER RECORDED through Biden. It can’t be fixed overnight – but we’re working on it.
-Energy is DOWN 40%
-Gasoline will soon be at $2/gallon
-Inflation is down.
Food goes up daily in New Florida. So does everything else (Premium and Diesel are still painful, Electric Bills are creeping for the AI Blob, Insurance? Ha!). Since much Wealth has parked itself here all I can reckon is they are doing forced Dynamic Pricing on the whole State regardless of status.
Desantis needs to get a law passed that AI data centers have to pay the same rate for electricity that home owners do.
When the only thing you stand for is your own advancement, this is what it looks like
It is sad, but they are just following orders, as one commenter here posted: “the Washington Generals to the Harlem Globetrotters.” They do have plenty of fight though, witness Rand Paul opine on Kennedy’s measure to cut their pay until the government opens up; plenty of fight and passion there.
“They fight more against each other than against the Democrats.”
alternate take::: thats because they are more open-minded, free thinking, and a larger “tent”. its definitely frustrating at times, and people even here can get pretty touchy when they realize not everyone is in total agreement on every issue… they start calling it bots or TDS or whatever….
no question there is plenty of ill motives involved, too.
but frankly, i would rather have people considering alternate ways to tackle problems than just falling in line and doing what you are told by some faceless oligarch somewhere.
I agree with you in principle. However, I believe if we lose Congress in 2026 and certainly if we also lose the Presidency in 2028, our Constitutional Republic is over.
We are in a war, political that it may be, but a war nevertheless for our country.
Our elections are a farce. Even the one that just occurred. There were voting machines that went down, bomb threats, people not allowed to vote, corrupted mail-in ballots, etc. I have no idea how much of that occurred and how it affected the elections, but these things should not occur.
So if the left can corrupt our elections, pad the census with illegals for additional representatives and control the courts do you actually think being more principled than they are will make a difference.
I don’t want our side to embrace their illegal tactics. I want our side to actually fight against and stop their illegal tactics so principled governance can occur.
JMHO
fair.
“However, I believe if we lose Congress in 2026 and certainly if we also lose the Presidency in 2028, our Constitutional Republic is over.”
unfortunately, i believe our last chance was in 2020, and we failed. we had a lot of chances to keep some remnant of the republic up to and before that, but what has come after is largely performative.
Also, just look at what has already been happening to our country. California is a total mess. Same for Washington State, Oregon, Minnesota, and maybe New Mexico and Arizona. Then look at the northeastern states. Mostly all very liberal supporting leftist candidates and policies.
The NY and NJ elections and a few others around the country should be an eye opener for all of us.
The influx of illegals with Sanctuary Cities and the growing Muslim communities should be another highly concerning eye opener for us.
We can stand on principles and say this stuff should not be happening in our Constitutional Republic, but it is.
They are winning and apparently President Trump is our only hope, but our Congress is sitting on their hands with principle.
Once again…only We the People can fix this.🇺🇲
Okay, lets be clear Virginia, which hasn’t elected a Republican president since 2004, stayed blue.
New Jersey, which hasn’t voted for a Republican president since 1988, stayed blue.
And New York City? We haven’t elected a Republican president since Calvin Coolidge in 1924.
So they continue to win. But the Democrat Party is not the party of JFK. They are going extreme left and socialist, but they continue to win.
I guess your point is they embrace socialism and therefore they continue to win. All they need is a D by the candidates name and they are all in.
Because their constituents have no critical thinking skills.
Our Constitutional Republic was lost when We the People allowed the walking Potato to raise his hand and take the oath of office on January 6th 2020. The America that you and I was raised in was lost on that day, there is only one way to get it back and only We the People can do it.🇺🇲
Republicans stay defeated because of unrealistic “purity” tests and inability to stay united and cohesive. That is the strength of our enemies. https://www.wcdispatch.com/p/republicans-need-to-wake-up
Don’t agree. The republicans stay defeated because they want to. They talk a good game, bluster and thunder that they are going to do “something.” That something never happens. On purpose. They wish to not upset the voters and lose their jobs so they do just enough to sound like they are fighting for America but in reality they fight for their jobs and cushy lifestyle. Term limits and reductions in benefits that they get including especially their own healthcare insurance is sorely needed to even the playing field and make them do their jobs.
The voters need to make more noise too and get out and vote when they have the chance to hold these weak sauced self centered representatives feet to the fire. Too may voters can’t be bothered to pay attention to their civic duty on the governance of their country, have no idea of the laws or the workings of the election systems or who is actually running for office and what they stand for..
We the people have to get more involved but that’s been said for decades and still people don’t care. Shame on all of those who ignore their duty as citizens to exercise their right to determine who governs for them.
I think that most of them agree with the democrats on all the important issues. They are mostly lawyers or otherwise in the professional classes, and those people lean left. Those who live in red states and want to run for office pretend to be conservative. Some play the fiscal conservative angle (Phil Gramm, Paul Ryan, Chip Roy), others play the strong-defense angle and talk a lot about Reagan (McConnell, Lindsey Graham), and still others play the religious conservative angle (Pence, Cruz, Lankford, Mike Johnson). But at the end of the day, they want what the democrats want. Both parties are controlled by globalists who want to destroy Western civilization, and thus the congressional GOP won’t lift a finger to stop this from happening.
Oh I do agree with your comments here. Voter turnout out has been our downfall in this many elections.
I do think, however, that the lack of impassioned enthusiastic candidates fighting for MAGA, America First policies keep voters thinking it’s the same ole same ole so why bother.
That shouldn’t be an excuse, but I guess it is
Corey Lewandowski says Kash Patel will reveal J6 bomber.
https://x.com/bennyjohnson/status/1986842723706650768?s=20
I have zero faith in CashMoney at this point. He will only release the information because it’s unstoppable at this point. Right now he’s trying to do damage control because he’s an idiot.
His tweet about his “sensational” country singer gf a couple weeks ago was monumentally pathetic and shortsighted. He should not be leading anything, let alone an agency that is in desperate need of either a thorough house cleaning, or razing.
Is he based in Las Vega$?
And Bondi in Florida?
Yep. For all the shaming about workers going back to the office, they sure don’t practice what they preach!!
“Right now he’s trying to do damage control because he’s an idiot.”
YUP. he has spent a lot of time trying to tell us how great 90% of the rank and file is. straight up hannity style BS. now that one of their own is going to be called out, and because of some indie journalism rather than their stellar investigative powers, he needs a cover story.
JMO.
There are tens of thousands of biden treasonous, weaponizing carryovers still in the DOJ / FBI / CIA who need to be fired.
Forget about the J6 bomber, concentrate on true national security concerns with the biden thugs still in the executive branch.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
totally true, but pushing over a domino is often what gets the rest started.
i maintain that if we ever want to hear who this lady was actually answering to, they better have a really good security detail on her. there are a lot of people inside the deep state sweating right now if she spills the beans what she knows for immunity.
Thank you for keeping the focus
The bomber I’m sure has connections. the string is being pulled.
Glenn Beck’s investigator Steve Baker already knows who it is.
Yesterday, I read that that was supposed to happen today. I’ll believe it when I see it.
When be flies back from Beijing.. WTFig is he going in Beijing, anyhow?? On The Jet, No Less..
Re the ATC problem at airports, why can’t the military ATC folks augment/stand-in when need be?
They aren’t getting paid either.
Well, when I served I don’t recall having the option of not reporting for duty because of a pay issue nor do I remember anything in my enlistment contract to that effect.
The airlines can fund ATC folks. Make them contractors, 1099 them temporarily until…
Then push to have ATC and airport security privatized. Remove all the gov’t taxes from airline tickets and let the airfares represent the true cost, which will be overall lower than gov’t doing those things.
That would take multiple votes in Congress
You should run for office!
Don’t worry, they will be paid in full for their little vacation.
It will be the fastest bit of legislation passed all year.
They made payroll somehow for end of month pay in October. Next weeks November mid month is in doubt.
They are being paid as members of the armed services.
During the Air Traffic controller Strike 1980-81, during President Reagan’s administration, military controllers were deployed … there were issues due to differences in level of experience and differences in procedural requirements. That being said, where ever there was an experienced FAA Controller available to mentor a Military Controller, they did just fine.
This may work temporarily due to numbers involved but the best solution is privatize the whole system … which of course will raise air travel costs to the consumer as airlines pass through the costs. This would still be the preferable solution … along side privatizing airport security.
Smartwatch, Built-in Alexa, GPS, VO2 Max, HRV, Blood Oxygen, Sleep Monitoring, Women’s Health, Custom Reminders, Sports Tracking, 1.32” AMOLED, Compass, Altimeter (Bluetooth, Gold, 43mm)
Yes, it supports multiple global positioning systems, including China’s BeiDou, the US’s GPS, Russia’s GLONASS, the EU’s Galileo, and Japan’s QZSS. This ensures accurate tracking for your running routes and other activities.
“I get all my notifications right on my wrist—texts, and calls. It’s super convenient because I don’t have to constantly check my phone, especially when I’m busy or on the go. I can even read messages or take calls directly from the watch, which is a nice time-saver.”
$99.49
Some simple rules of the sky, a watch on every pilot’s hand, some servers, connections to radars, and some software is all it takes to put an air traffic controller in every cockpit.
Because they have no experience with that volume a) and b) who is gonna operate military ATC
They were used in 1981 when Reagan fired the striking air controllers.
Yep.
Yep and wherever there was an experienced civilian air traffic controller to mentor them, they did just fine.
there were issues due to level of experience, volumes of traffic and procedural difference. Also, there are not that many military controllers … so this would be a temporary fix at best.
I wonder if there was a real poll taken amongst MAGA as to whetherj there needs to be a MAGA party, what the outcome would be. MAGA gave the Republicans a chance and they are not responding to the people’s choice. Instead the Senate especially, appears to be bent on destroying the movement and President that put them in office.
I think it would be worth doing so the Republicans can see by what percentage of Registered Republicans they would lose. I suggest only Registered Republicans and Independents be polled.
Another alternative would be for MAHA and MAGA to team up as new party. I would think the results would be phenomenal..
MAGA is nothing more than common sense, constitutional conservatism and – IMO – should have been marketed that way.
Want to drive a Leftists or Uniparty RINO insane?
Tell them that Trump has advanced and enacted the most conservative AND successful presidential agenda since Reagan (he indisputably has) and watch their heads explode.
Our enemies have done a lot of damage to us convincing their dumbed down constituents by smearing MAGA as “Authoritarian” / “Nazi” / “Fascist” etc…
The Republican Party is the traditional home of the American Conservative movement and ought to remain so.
Form another party and what just happened in New York City will happen to our country.
Agreed. Some changes only make things worse.
Here’s what we know for certain: Congress as it is now is the enemy of every American citizen and has no redeeming value.
Republicans are worse than worthless but pretend not to be. Democrats are proudly worse than worthless.
They have the same masters.
Unfortunately not every American knows this, lots of pretending going on…🖖🏻
I do not believe the fact is not know .. the problem is the fact is not accepted and ignored as long as the lives of the non-believers is not impacted.
The “knows” part no longer holds water as there is way too much public information to not see it.
stay with the same party and you can track out what will happen, because it already HAS.
cant recall who interviewed him, but a recent one with robert barnes he was talking about this subject. that a lot of people came to trump because he basically WAS a third party. but if he fails to deliver especially on the foreign entanglement thing, the viability of a third party that would, over time, kill the GOP, goes way up. but not until after a long, dark winter while the transition happens.
The Republicans don’t care and are quite happy to be the minority opposition party.
How about PDJT becoming head of the RNC after POTUS and reforming it into a winning MAGA party that focuses on continuing his legacy by electing MAGA candidates? Can you see live elephants painted in red, white, and blue, strolling down parade routes throughout America?
The WikiPedia article on “DEFUNCT American Political Parties” is as interesting as it is LONG.
But: “MAGA” must not be an acronym on a red hat. It must be a national imperative. Because if you don’t put [your_country] first, in everything that you do and that you negotiate, no one else on earth ever will. (Why on earth should they?)
The time is certainly ripe for a new “party,” because the ones that we now have are on life support.
I contend in about 5 years the parties will be, The Communist Party and The NOT Communist Party. Instead of the 2 communistic parties we now have.
Democrats are firmly in the camp of hating the country as it is now organized and marginally operating. They don’t care about capital investments in America helping people – they only care about those capital investments making they themselves rich. And to that end they don’t care where the investments are made, as long as they can continue raking in the dough.
Just like they didn’t care that the advertisements for Obamacare were a lie from the beginning. Of course they are probably invested in the insurance companies, big pharma and the all powerful medical care corporate entities.
There were many calls for a new party after the first time Pres. Trump won, but he pushed it off and said he wanted to reform the Republican Party I believe. That was the optimum time to create a new party since so many MAGA supporters were ready to join in.
Time has not proven the Republican Party is ever going to change and since Pres. Trump is busy accomplishing as much as he can for America and cannot run again for the Presidency, I don’t think he would show much interest in taking that huge task on.
It would have to be a massive revolt led by some very charismatic well known leadership and where would they be found. The time has passed for that issue to happen.
Glad that someone is speaking out about this. If Sleepy Joe had ever done similar, folks here would have made an uproar.
This is 100% something to keep a watch on.
Dimon on JPMorgan Chase not donating to White House ballroom: ‘We have an issue’

Yep. Tell me the differences.
Part 1: The American Color Revolution is Disguised as “Democracy” “with “Dignity”
In fact many of the people involved in this movement are actually former employees of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and other government agencies that have been trained on how to foment color revolutions to instigate regime change in other countries.
Part of something similar they call “DemAID,” these operatives trained with American taxpayer dollars are using the same strategies they’ve utilized to shift culture and overthrow governments internationally but now on domestic soil to protect American democracy from authoritarianism under Trump.

OH CANADA: Carney turns Canada’s farm bank into a political weapon determining that it is too ‘white’. Farmers once spied on for supporting the Freedom Convoy now face racial and ideological quotas for loans. Canada is following in South Africa’s footsteps.

worsr… they shot and killed hundreds of ostriches on a farm. This was just an awful awful story. I know there are lots of animal and bird lovers here at the Treehouse. Sad Story over at the Daily Mail. Happened in New Brunswich CANADA.
Sickening events in Canada , if you have been following the saga of the healthy ostriches the Canadian government was hellbent on killing well they finally got their wish and slaughtered them all for absolutely no reason. Between this and the slaughtering of the barred owl that the US Senate jut approved –I just can’t stomach the way we treat Gods creatures. https://www.rebelnews.com/breaking_rebel_news_confirms_hundreds_of_ostriches_dead_following_government_cull_order
Which ostriches are they killing off, the ones with their head in the snow while their nation is destroyed by the commie globalist or the feathered ones?
The decent , innocent, feathered ones that have no means to fight, unlike the human ones. I hope Canada suffers.
Saddest Story I’ve read today.
Try following what the govts of both countries and also Australia are doing to the wild horses in their respective countries. Talk about sickening. More Americans need to know the govt. is willing to use our own tax dollars to harm the beautiful wild horses that are so much a part of American heritage all for the greed of ranchers who make sure the govt. is well supported with ‘donations.’ They want to eliminate the wild horses from the millions of empty acres that they currently roam on. Herds chased with helicopters causing panic and babies to be separated from their mothers, cause death and cruel injuries. It’s more than sickening really.
Humans harming other species by killing them off is probably the worst of what humans can be.
Ghouls, the lot of that excuse for a Government! “1776 WORLDWIDE!!”

ICE Wants NYPD Cops Who Are Mad About Mamdani
This is not the first time that the Trump administration has made such overtures to local law enforcement. In October, the Associated Press reported that ICE had spent millions of dollars on targeted television advertising across the country, using partisan messaging to recruit police officers employed in sanctuary cities. It was also an effort to meet the White House’s goal of hiring 10,000 new ICE officers by year’s end. Per the outlet, the 30 second ads aired in cities like Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Seattle and Denver among others.

weasel in (hurt people, fear monger, etc.)

and then (dems) take a mile.
[ that’s the slippery slope that has miss lead to $ 37 trillion debts etc.]
For comparison:
Just to get a vote on a nominee for an appointment…
the dems were weaseling for money ( not for good for country reason(s))
…and after maybe agreeing on a relatively small sum,
…the goal posts got moved by dems,
and they wanted more money… it kept, going and going…
(not in a good way, unless one miss thinks that corruption / spin is good. – but it is not.)
dems demanding, from article in August 2025 (see link below)
demanding over $ ___________________ Dollars in order to approve a small number of our highly qualified nominees, who should right now be helping to run our Country.
(and if one said o.k., they would want more)
Did someone say that there is $ 37 trillion in U.S. debts…?
(where does dems spending more, help to solve that, too often unsaid, problem?
uhhhh…. there is a history to the contrary…) (one can assume, based on history, that the actual care, is actually playing pretend. Some people can not sort out a difference between fiction and non-fiction.

And all her stinkin rich money isn’t doing her much good. Her health stinks and she can’t take her $ with her. And if she could, there would be no point since it would all burn.
I’ve tried the Treehouse search engine and can’t seem to find it, Sundance’s article on Meghan Kelly and her 2015 Presidential Debate prep where she was going to take then candidate Trump down.
Does anyone have that article saved and can post a link to that article here?
I keep seeing a lot of X/twitter posts of people amazed that she is defending Tucker/Fuentes et.al and wanted to share a link to that article so people can stop pretending they don’t know she has been anti-Trump, anti-MAGA from day one.
Thanks in advance.

Good one! Adding to the list for sharing.
One thing that Mattais Desmet has said over and over again, the best way to keep the worst that can happen from happening is to continue to speak up, say the things others want kept unsaid, as continual conversation grows the darkness cannot completely take over and the more voices the better chance of making it through the darkness to the other side.
Plus, I really have reached that point where I have no more “F’s” to give.
p.s. I still laugh at her slicked-back butch haircut when she went full warrior mode against then candidate Trump and all I could do was laugh and feel sad at the same time thinking ‘is there no one that loves her enough to remind her to take her medicine?’ (the old manic d meds).
Again, Thank You Ad rem, have saved the links to each of them and already “building the narrative of non-pretending” in some x comments. Hope the posts don’t draw too much work for you all in the backrooms of moderating as am pretty sure each of you have your hands full as it is. Much love to all you do.
She aged herself with that haircut – made her look hard and unrelatable, IMO.
Busy hands are happy hands! 😘
Britain’s Chancellor, Rachel from Accounts, is preparing to tax the hell out of everyone in her Budget, due next week.
But especially with the wealthy who can easily up stakes and remove themselves and their money from the UK.
But wait!!!
She’s got a plan for that!!
She’s mandating what is called a “settling up tax”, as one would pay before leaving the pub if a bar tab has been run up.
(Somehow I’m hearing repeated strains of “FAFO” …)
Reeves needs to go back to making coffee for the real “economists” at the Bank of England!
I’m not sure there are any, sis. I generally pick up a name or two…globalists all.
And “climate worshippers”…
Starmer, Milleband (Tony Blair’s bestie), and assorted cohorts will have flown 12,000 miles round trip (at taxpayer’s expense) to South America so they can tell us how near the end we are.
If I’d paid for tickets to watch this ugly pantomime, I’d be demanding my money back.
I miss my Mike Graham in the evenings. His “Morning Glory” was my go to for the most up to date… 😢
BTW….did you catch Bonfire Night in Lewes? ‘Twas awesome! 🔥
LOL…was Starmer the grand marshal?
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/0EjoICQIyPo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I didn’t!!! I am so grateful, dear lady, for posting this. Oh how we loved Bonfire Night ( yes 😢). Probably the next thing to be banned….
Starmer wouldn’t dare!!! 😂
And yes, Mike Graham is a grievous loss.
I’ve noticed that the British papers are all-in on the climate nonsense. Financial Times even has a separate “Climate” section, and that paper weaves climate nonsense into many articles where it doesn’t really fit.
Forgot to add…just to keep you up…Rachel has been caught in dodgy house dealings just like the ex Deputy PM, “Three Houses” Angela Rayner. But she has said she won’t resign as Rayner was forced to. We’ll see after her Budget hammers every living soul in Blighty.
Also today, it has been announced that “Three Houses” is coming out with a biography. Suggestions for titles have been requested…
Among my faves are…
1. “Behind the Bike Sheds”
And
2 “Politics for Slappers”
The Telegraph (where we saw this) has been forced to edit the worst from the comments. You can only imagine 😎
😂 😂 😂 ….I’m dyin’……
I wonder how many of those 51 arrests were for felonies? I guess there is no maximum limit on felonies until a murder is committed???
Commit one, get two free.
And then only if the murder makes the news and people get riled up. If not, there’s no limit.
Where Is the old commie? Brush fires are itching to spread.

True Americans have not felt enough pain yet…
The Republicans will cave to, simply put, lose the next election. That is their goal because they make more money in the minority as SD has outlined over many years.
The DOGE cuts were just a great idea but will never get passed into budget because…there is no budget which is the point of CRs.
I don’t think republicans will lose midterms.
President Trump knows the consequences (more impeachment). He will pull out all stops to win. We must and will win.
I’m going to ask a simple , maybe dumb question( because it seems like ordinari pratice by the judicial benches) and i dont know?
What cant a judge order Senator Chuck Schumer to open the US Government?
Like ones that have ordered funds / money out of thin air from President Trump ! They order stuff from one side of the country to the other anyway
Just order chuckles to vote yes this time
Did someone ask the judges or the (judicial) bar examiners?
[ want to guess how ssslow that one will get a clear (and honest) answer ? ]
p.s. Judicial Watch has seen freedom of information inquiries – take a long, long time. Why?
p.s.
yet, look how quick some judges can issue an order (without a due process, proceeding)?
Just a FWIW bit: over on X, there’s been a huge national discussion about Tuesday among Republicans and Indies about why so many Trump voters didn’t show up, and why Indie swing voters went so hard against Repubs. Some of the posts were heartbreaking: self-employed and small business people were talking about their Obamacare exchange insurance policies going up 25% or more from already outrageous numbers, with policies for families running anywhere from $20-30,000 annually. 🤯 They are having to drop them of course and are hysterical and enraged.
Then some talked about their energy bills, others talking about what a mess their student loan situation is (and these were folks who had been trying diligently but simply are buckling financially under the strain.) so many heartbreaking posts from young people who say they have already given up all hope of being homeowners or having kids. 😥
My take: fair or not, good or not, the administration focus on foreign policy and immigration and no real progress on helping good hardworking people who are literally going under has really dampened support and enthusiasm. Administration MUST show empathy and understanding and offersome concrete solutions! Now. 🙏🤞
Context is important.
NYC is a Marxist hell hole. A Republican was NEVER going to get close, much less get elected.
New Jersey is a solid leftist State. The Republican running is now a 3 time loser. He got spanked by double digits. There was little that could have been done to pull this loser into the winner’s circle.
Virginia is now a leftist State. Not as much as New Jersey, but the DC suburbs are infested with radical left college educated white women who seem to be fanatical for Dems. Add to that the shutdown, which impacted the VA suburbs of DC big time. The GOP candidate got beat by 15 points!!! Even that creep DA guy won by 6! When an electorate votes for a POS like that DA candidate — there is nothing — NOTHING that the GOP could have done.
But to your point: your recommendations to focus completely on domestic issues and the economy is exactly what the GOP better do if they want to survive the midterms. They should use this off year election as a wake up call.
Will they? Maybe. Remember — they are still run by “go along to get along” surrender monkeys 🙂
Let me add being from NJ. The dems shut down power plants for wind farms. Those wind farms were never built due to massive back lash from shore owners. So they voted 2 or 3 times to allow energy to be increased because the energy companies needed to go out of state to purchase electricity.
Of course this new Governor is going to go after those big bad energy companies. She’s a full on climate nut and unfortunately there are a lot of people in NJ that know nothing about these facts.
In addition, hoards of illegals have come into this state just in the past 4 years and it’s noticeable. They have all been put on free health care causing our rates to explode. I’m sure they all voted too.
Yes but the people that created all those problems are who the idiots elected to fix all those problems.
The majority of voters are extremely stupid, ignorant and easily manipulated, and the Democrats are very good at manipulating people.
https://dailycaller.com/2025/11/07/man-on-street-zohran-mamdani-voters-vibes-democrats-nyc/
Don’t you vote on the candidate’s vibes?
You are half right. A focus on foreign affairs is not what the people voted for. On the other hand, the immigration fix is what we voted for and in fact we need even more of it.
No real progress LOL. First of all it was the Biden administration that caused people to lose all hope , Trump is trying to rectify all the damage Biden has done and that takes a lot longer than a year . The Trump administration has focused on eliminating the American peoples money going to illegal migrants . American taxpayer dollars have been going to illegals instead of Americans . Biden gave hundred’s of billions away to Ukraine which funneled back into democrat politicians pockets , when you spend that much money of our money than our money is going to be worth less , that’s not Trumps fault at all .
On another note the immigration issue was # 1 priority with Americans and Trump shut down the border immediately .
thanks for highlighting the discussion on ocare subsidies –
you pushed a button!🤣
having a lot of trouble mustering any sympathy for those newly introduced to reality.
after the passage of ocare, my private health insurance premium immediately went from
$350.00 every OTHER month to $750.00 PER month.
the next year it went to $1500.00/ month.
the year after that, $1800.00/month.
this was not an everything policy, just a high deductible,
major medical and catastrophic hospitalization policy – no dental, no vision, no drug coverage.
i kept it for 5 years after the ocare debacle.
last premium before i dropped it was a little OVER $2000.00/month.
paid almost $100,000.00 for a policy i never used because i was always under the deductible
on the 2 or 3 times i sought care.
it is NOT comforting to know that i paid for those folks now complaining
that their subsidized health insurance policies now costs a little more.
Exactly what is wrong with so called “health insurance” – you pay for something you never get benefit from!
Break most hospitals into two.
At least one would probably be willing to sell you prepaid operating room time and price guarantees on other services.
Sounds like congress is the problem not President Trump
I too frequently read this same type of comment. The corpse certainly left President Trump a world on fire, and he is doing an admirable job of dealing with the many conflagrations.
These comments also reflect an abysmal failure to comprehend how greatly the “immigration” situation affects all other domestic issues.
While acknowledging these issues exist, your commenters should also realize that turning the Ship of State is to turn the largest most ungainly ship in the world.
sometimes I sit and think…….and sometimes I just sit.
today I was thinking what would it be like if all the members of Congress and Senate were real patriots that wanted to serve their country,,,,,,not just corrupt greedy sh1t bags we have now……???
we pay these scum yet not your troops during this stupid shut down…….
imagine if we really had a two party system ….instead of this uni party….
some days its seems to be better to just sit.
have a grand week end Treepers
I’ve often thought the same, bjorkdream.
That bench looks inviting… 🙂
I am tired of sitting and waiting but I don’t wish to spend my life for little or no return, every day I get a little older and a little weaker and eventually there will be nothing left to give. So the decision has been made to work hard get stronger and one day before the beginning of my end I intend to give as good as I have been given, I just hope my sacrifice does not go unnoticed.
Looks like Thune caved to the Dems. Senate now debating on Obamacare extensions. Thune offered an extension but I am not sure for how long.
Question. Does this now have to go back to the House? I take it Johnson has agreed to this otherwise Thune would not have offered it.
What a serious sad state of affairs.
No, that is not true. Thune outright rejected it. It won’t happen. What they are debating is Schumer’s ransom demand.
Thank you, I am glad to hear it.

FTA:
BIG SNIP
“Schumer proposed a “clean” one-year extension to the tax credits that expire on Dec. 31 — meaning they would not include new restrictions on eligibility that many Republicans have sought. He also proposed creating a bipartisan committee to negotiate a longer-term solution for the subsidies and other health care reforms, to begin its work after the government reopens.
Senate Republicans have warned repeatedly that the government has to be reopened before Democrats get any vote on the ACA subsidies. But Democrats have balked so far at those terms as they pressure President Donald Trump and congressional Republicans to cut a deal now to address the expected spike in Obamacare premiums.
“This is a reasonable offer that reopens the government, deals with health care affordability and begins a process of negotiating reforms to the ACA tax credits for the future,” Schumer said. “Now the ball is in the Republicans’ court. We need Republicans to just say, ‘Yes.”
Key Senate Republicans immediately ruled it out, however, with Majority Leader John Thune calling it a “nonstarter.””
Schumer proposed a “clean” one-year extension to the tax credits that expire on Dec. 31 — meaning they would not include new restrictions on eligibility that many Republicans have sought.
=====
The GOP is not “seeking” anything. They IMPLEMENTED termination of these subsidies in the BBB 🙂
What Schumer wants is for the GOP to REVERSE what they did in the BBB and reinstitute them for 2026!
It better be a “non starter”, Thune.
Sorry, he said they would vote on anything they wanted.
Ignore this comment. I have been updated with Thunes rejection.
Need to look at the nuances of the language being used because the Democrats are trying to extend the ACA Credits for more than 1-year.
If the ACA Credits are expanded for 1-Calendar Year … that actually spans 2-Fderal Fiscal Years and leaves the ACA Credits in place through the March 2027 or Reconciliation assessment period for FY2027 … just in time to make the ACA a major campaign issue for the 2028 Election.
Even if it did, no one will do a darn thing to try and change anything. Mamdani will just sail on doing what he wants to with little consequences. Remember, these are voters and political leaders who don’t care about illegal manuevering or influence or breaking election laws to get what they want and see nothing wrong that they think it’s ok to murder a political opponent. Why should they care when no consequences of any merit ever happen.
You think the republicans will do anything? Or Congress? Or the DOJ? When have they ever gone after the corrupt criminals running the left progressive wing of the Dems and brought the hammer of justice down hard on them.
Exact behavior for which President Trump was prosecuted – and his was as usual a complete fabrication.
The Ban On Ricky Gervais’ Billboard Saying “Welcome To London, Don’t Forget Your Stab Vest” Shows We Are No Longer Free
Last week, Britain’s comedy treasure, Ricky Gervais, took to social media to rant about how his proposed billboards for Dutch Barn Vodka had been rejected.
Each banner featured a dark but hilarious slogan that would have inevitably won the applause of Britain’s disillusioned masses.
Merely a day after Gervais delivered his rant, reality took a terrifying turn. On a Doncaster-to-London train, a man went on a blood-fuelled rage, stabbing 10 innocent people. Real life quickly turned darker than the joke, and not even the most intuitive writers could have scripted it.
Khan’s office has vetoed everything from meat adverts to oil campaigns, always in the name of public virtue. He governs the capital like a headmaster confiscating magazines, deciding what adults are allowed to look at between stations. It’s not public transport anymore; it’s a rolling sermon.

I have been thinking based on the $150 million donation to military pay that we might in this shut down have a moment in time to force the populace of the U.S. of A. to show what they truly believe. I suggest we crowd source the pay of the military and SNAP only. Allow all donations to be considered prepaid taxes next April and deducted from the tax bill or to generate a refund. I postulate that the military would be paid for at least a month but SNAP would fail and even if a billionaire or 2 did get SNAP funded, the number of donors to the military pay would dwarf the donors to SNAP. I myself not a rich man would chip in 3k or so to the military getting paid. How hard would it be to set up a site and make it happen? I have long wished I could designate how my taxes are spent. And just occurring to me, set up a site for the pay of congress critters and see how much that gets in donations. Probably be swamped with $.02 donations to make it go red!
SNAP NO! MILITARY YES!
SNAP NO! MILITARY YES!
You do realize there are military dependents on the SNAP program?

My point is conservatives would probably cover down for military pay but the libs don’t care that much for the “poor starving folk”
The Commander-in-Chief probably needs to allow lower level commanders to grant compassionate financial leave to non-nuclear, non-vessel military personnel who could rake leaves, drive for Uber, DoorDash or Domino’s, or help out at Amazon for needed money.
They can find such work now, but after Christmas find temp work will be tough.

He had one job and that was to get the republican senate majority to vote for the MAGA / America First policies as expressed by its leader, President Trump.
Shoe-mer could and would get the needed democrat votes to eliminate the filibuster if he were ever to get back into power.
Thune’s failure to do the same for the republicans, …………. that disloyal act will be the just cause of his removal from leadership and his being awarded the 2025 MCCAIN disloyal award.
Thune is a RINO.
Which means he is a “republican in name only” (democrat).
He can also adjourn the Senate so Trump can get his people in place.

FTA “A federal judge has restricted the federal government’s use of tear gas and other types of anti-riot measures in Chicago. On Thursday, Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Sara Ellis said during a hearing that government witnesses’ claims of violence at protests in Chicago were not credible, citing several occasions where she said video recordings contradicted immigration officials’ accounts about what happened. “The government would have people believe instead that the Chicagoland area is in a visehold of violence, ransacked by rioters, and attacked by agitators,” she said. “That simply is untrue.”
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in a statement from a spokesperson on the ruling described protesters in the city as “rioters, gangbangers and terrorists” who pose a threat to federal agents…Federal agents’ use of force, including anti-riot measures, has historically been guided by broad standard requiring the force to be “objectively reasonable,” a standard laid out in the 1989 Supreme Court case Graham v. Connor. This entails a general requirement to use as little force as possible and respect constitutional rights, while responding proportionately to legitimate threats. U.S. Justice Department attorney Sarmad Khojasteh argued during the hearing that in every instance, federal agents were justified in their use of force, and told the court that protestors’ actions did not constitute protected First Amendment activity.
As part of her order, Ellis directed immigration agents to wear body cameras and clearly present their badges or identification. A similar order was issued by Ellis last month in a temporary restraining order, which expired on Nov. 6.”
The only ones who have to behave when leftists riots are the Federal agents according to this obama Judge!!! Every Biden/obama Federal Judge needs to be impeached if the Republic is to survive!!! JMO
…and the so called ruling was based upon what discussed, documented,
‘due process’ ?
Hung, not impeached.
In other news…….. A Canadian freight ship runs aground in the Detroit River. The Trump Curse strikes again. LOL
G3orge is discussing Turning Point USA being under surveillance during Operation Arctic Frost.
He’s live right now.
He’s not using incidental graphics if you’d rather listen than watch and he articulates well so he’s easy to understand on a faster speed.
