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.

Well, well, well, per faux, maybe about 4000 or so, but its a start:

Every long journey starts with a single step….
“Judicial” potholes straight ahead…
Excellent description….
Dam the torpedoes, full speed ahead.
The corrupt DC District Court, loaded with obama/biden leftist activists Judges, is more than a pothole it’s a gigantic sinkhole for justice!! Every Judge no matter who appointed them is corrupted! This District Court needs to be abolished, too small, too powerful and too corrupt!!! JMO
Interesting, isn’t it, Bubby, that as we scan the horizon of evidence that the judiciary is systemically corrupt we have to pick up a magnifying glass to find the one or two “Trump” judges who have ruled against his actions.
Judicial saboteurs.
We do not have a functional constitutional judiciary.
We have one stuffed with malignant political ideologues, each one vying for his or her turn to be “President for a Day”.
“You seem to consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions; a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy.
Our judges are as honest as other men, and not more so. They have, with others, the same passions for party, for power, and the privileges of their corps…
Their power [is] the more dangerous as they are in office for life, and not responsible, as the other functionaries are, to the elective control. The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal, knowing that to whatever hands confided, with the corruptions of time and party, its members would become despots. It has more wisely made all the departments co-equal and co-sovereign within themselves.”
~Thomas Jefferson
Lawfare has spread from the corrupt judges to the citizenry. We now see Grand Juries in selected jurisdictions populated by leftist ideologues refusing to indite or convict very obviously guilty, high-profile Dems/liberals while Repubs/conservatives are placed into the fast lane to incarceration.
I anticipate we will soon become more accustomed to regional/local politics dictating legal outcomes. Biased judges and DAs will become only the tip of a very partisan and destructive judicial system.
Yes, juries are a crippling part of the problem, Dan. I’ve thought the same.
Per your “regional/local comment…
What form this country eventually takes is anyone’s guess. But my view is that America as she is at this moment is irrevocably bifurcated and balkanized.
There can be no reunification with evil, of which we are getting a trial run, if God forbid they manage to seize power again. The divide is too deep and too wide.
I agree, completely.
The national populace is irreparably divided ideologically on multiple, fundamental, political, moral, and sociological principals.
The future success of the 50 states’ functioning as a viable, collaborative, centrally governed, and functionally effective collective is a legitimate topic for discussion.
Nor do we have a functional Congress.
John Roberts doe not agree with you and I do not agree with John Roberts.
Chief Justice John Roberts defends federal judges against Trump’s attacks in a rare public statement
Roberts said that America does not have “Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges.”
https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/21/chief-justice-john-roberts-pushes-back-on-trump-criticism-of-judges.html
But they do have corrupt judges driven by ideology and maybe $$$
Agreed.
I think Roberts, himself, is CORRUPT and have read a lot of information to support this. His Obamacare decision was a twisted mess; it seemed like he was threatened or pressured. Regardless, I believe he felt that he MUST keep Obamacare legal; the question is WHY and only God (plus anyone involved in that corrupt mess) knows . . . .
Corrupt, as on the take, I seriously doubt. Feckless, rudderless, gutless – that’s Roberts.
john Roberts HAS PLAYED POLITICS
WORSE than Justice John Marshall
Barry the Zero wanted Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court. Mic drop, end of argument..
Didn’t age very well did it?
That would take congressional action. Not gonna happen.
Most have been here long enough that they should have become legal under other means. Citizenship, Green Cards.
And those legally here get dibs on bringing in their friends and family before any other legal applicant.
There are a few who will have committed fraud to become legal, such as Omar.
And there will be a few who illegally immigrated.
A push to remove Somali illegal immigrants will make a dent in the fraud problem, not solve it.
Also, when I see lists of the bad guys ICE is arresting in Minneapolis, they make for a very broad set of illegal immigrant nationalities.
ICE is still focused on bad criminals. Not Somali fraud.
If they were on welfare, they shouldn’t have obtained either.
I think this is a good point. Anyone who has been here a few years and has not pursued and received some kind of permanent residency status should be automatically deported.
See my other post…re Chicago.
Well, you are probably right….
There are illegals in Chicagoland that have been here over 40 years and have not pursued citizenship, I think its because the bennies of Harold Washington’s sanctuary city, keeps it that way…and HW was Chicago’s first black mayor so no one will really make much of a change on that concept, afraid to touch his policy.
I believe Scott Bessent (IRS) is focused on the fraud. Hopefully, making more than a dent.
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/treasury-secretary-scott-bessent-says-there-are-disturbing/
Is welfare fraud within ICE jurisdiction?
I would think that would get passed over to Treasury or FBI.
Prosecute and then deport if illegal alien.
You know what “Temporary Protected Status” means?
It means “Temporary”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You numbskull!
Jerome Powell has weaponized the Federal Reserve. Now he’s threatening the president to try to force him to quash a legitimate investigation. The DOJ should also investigate him for obstruction of justice. The same goes for politicians making similar threats.
Nobody is above the law.
“obstruction” charges should be handed out like candy right now. every single ICE protestor, every judge, mark kelly, etc. the “cops” love doing it when anything doesn’t go their way, so why not apply that writ large?
It has been observed that these are rioters and rebellion participants, not protesters…..
Anarcihsts.
whatever. lawfare them all to death.
It sure seems to me that Democrats are above the law!!! If one goes by arrests the Democrats are as pure as the driven snow!!!
Another Deep Stater that gotta go!
Woke up this morning expecting to see news reports of massive “Free Iran” protests. I figured the “Free Palestine” team would regroup for the Persian people. But alas, they must be busy protesting ICE or something. /s
The Free Palestine movement is really more about jihad / pro-Muhammadianian with a little anti-Israel mixed in. They love them some Mullahs!
i’m a lot more concerned about protecting ICE and stomping out rebellion at home than antagonizing the muslim s*thole of the week.
I agree, to a point…this stuff in Iran is sort of like a ‘do it yourself guide’…and that could happen here…in spite of the 2A.
Now more than every, we need to keep our heads on a swivel and keep tabs on those in Washington DC, especially those with names we can hardly pronounce Maybe not today or next week…but they will try.
NYC has already succumbed to those radicals with names we can’t pronounce.
Much as London has been subsumed, NYC will also be inundated with radical ideologues.
My sentiments also. Iran having a different dictator means nothing to me if my country can’t control it’s immigration policy. I think a lot of people gravitate to foreign affairs over the more important domestic issues is because they are relatively easy to fix and change. George Bush, the first, called foreign policy the “fun stuff” and he had disdain for domestic issues. So he went from 92 percent approval in March of 91 to losing the clown Clinton 20 months later.
I can dislike several things at the same time.
Nobody seems to question whether the reports we hear are true, and if said reports are simply attempts to drag Trump into war with Iran….
They already got him to bomb Iran once.
Let the Iranians rise up and do themselves.
there are actually plenty of questions (with pretty expected answers – its a MOSSAD/CIA op like it has always been), but the warlust has taken hold everywhere, IMO.
the deep state knows ukraine is no longer gonna be their sugar daddy, so they are ecstatic at what’s transpiring now. they can ramp up the blood and guts – but more importantly the MONEY and the AUTHORITARIANISM tenfold.
Agree!
Last week it was all about Maduro.
This week it is all about Iran.
And we mustn’t forget Greenland,Cuba,Mexico
and Ukraine……
Then here at home- it’s ICE protests🤬
It really has gotten old 😖
I believe it should be all about….
🇺🇸 🇺🇸 America First 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Jerusalem Post, Times of Israel, I-24, Jihad Watch and Al Jazeera are all reporting the same ideas…
“Let the Iranians rise up and do themselves.” – would be nice if we lived in a “fair” world but alas…………. So from a purely tactical and self interest point of view, it would be almost negligence if the USA, Israel, and other so called “peaceful resolution” nations, did not take and exploit to the full the current situation. If, let’s assume the overthrow results in a “western friendly” Shah no2, it might also spell the end for Hezbollah, various proxies in Syria, Yemen, etc. Perhaps if we are wise we could actually see the fruition of a full Abraham Accord and long lasting peace in the Middle East.
Of course we also need to factor in the wants of the international MIC. There is a long, long, investment and plenty of $$ to be made (by all the players) in keeping the status-quo just as it is thank you very much. We will soon know the answer.
Someone unfamiliar with our country who just consumed media content would think the radical nutjobs here have broad support and were going to overthrow our President. Is something like that occurring in Iran? I don’t know. I don’t think we should be getting involved and should instead worry about what is happening here.
I think Trump gets very accurate intelligence on Iran. Without that kind of intelligence they would have never gotten Murado.
I know that this has been discussed many times on this site BUT I keep coming back to July 5th, … after the wonderful, Powerful July 4th celebrations!
For months Trump was saying in rallies and other places that Epstein Files would be released. Bondi gave out fake folders in Jan that had Epstein files and stuff in them. Later we found out it was FAKE! Bondi did this!
Trump didn’t say anything “bad” about that. And praised Bondi every chance Trump could! You guys remember that. Sundance told us Bondi was the person who was responsible for going after Zimmerman. And Sundance thought Bondi is NOT a good choice for AG!
Fast forward to July 5th, the NIGHT everything crashed and Burned in MAGA! Bondi gave to Leftist paper, that Epstein killed himself and we are not going to do anything more, it is OVER!
This suprised everybody, many MAGA podcasters were very, very upset about this! After July 5th 2025 with Bondi’s surprise data dump! Everything changed!
Trump made a SUPER WRONG choice a few days later to say, why is media making a big deal about epstein stuff, that is old news, and we should deal with current stuff.
Trump still to this day praises Bondi!
I believe Bongino , and many others were upset about the way Epstein stuff was handled.
The Maga is cracking from July 5th to today!
I just feel bad that our wonderful movement is being fractured and I remember the MOMENT on July 5th after Wonderful July 4th weekend , damage was done to MAGA.
Hopefully we can get MAGA to be strong and unified again. I want us to win the 2026 midterms.
We have only a limited set of resources to address the vast criminality which exists throughout the federal and state governments. Chasing down and prosecuting election fraud, welfare fraud, illegal immigration schemes, and deep state criminal conspiracies takes priority over figuring out the Epstein business.
By design.

Patience!
Perfect updates to how “TRUMP” feels about Bondi … now!!!!!
Thanks for the links I did look at them, right on point.
If Bondi is still here in 3-4 weeks, we will know that absolutely NOTHING will be done about all these lawfare criminals…they will skate. We all saw that very few in CONgress asked her any really tough questions during her confirmation and THAT should have been a huge red flag.
IMHO…
If Bondi is still here in 3-4 DAYS,
we will know that absolutely NOTHING will be done about all these lawfare criminals…they will skate.
“The Federal Vacancies Reform Act (5 U.S.C. § 3345(a)(3)) explicitly allows the President to designate a senior DOJ employee (GS-15 level or higher, with at least 90 days of service in the agency during the prior 365 days) to serve as acting Attorney General for up to 210 days (extendable under nomination scenarios).”
https://xcancel.com/_____USA___/status/2011007460568412320#m
…
“Trump doesn’t have to b*tch about the weakness & ineffectiveness of Pam Bondi.
He can simply fire her tomorrow and appoint Ed Martin as (Acting) Attorney General w/o Senate approval for 210 days, which is more than enough time to finally drop the hammer of justice on the Swamp.”
https://xcancel.com/DavidGiglioCA/status/2010942265070686562#m
…
Mr. President, with respect…
Stop talking
DO!!
Bondi has been a joke and basically an obstruction to real justice.
But if the answer from the Trump Whitehouse is the Rooster, Trey Gowdy, then you know we have been had.
We are in need of a no nonsense, take no prisoner(or all of them), very serious leader at the DOJ.
Time is running out.
Reading mediate…..didn’t realize that many stupid people could congregate on the same site. Kept scrolling and couldn’t find one intelligent comment.
probably due to lack of understanding
I skip all Mediaite posts or articles and definitely don’t spend a second on their commentariat.
We need a MAGA Attorney General, and I don’t mean Democrat Todd Blanche.
Who’s the guy he’s with?
Scott Pressler.
heh
Pressler doesn’t have a beard like that.
That is Caitlyn Collins of CNN…this was from last year not long after he joined the doj?
I think this guy is tooling for some you-know-what here. This CNN chick is kinda cute. Most of the broads on that channel could scare a hungry dog off a meatwagon…….
BTW: no guy that was a democrat a year ago is gonna do anything but torpedo everything Trump wants to do.
” scare a hungry dog off a meatwagon” 🙂
We need to email the POTUS and briefly, formally and concisely express our concerns and wishes in 25 words or less…..
Mr. President, with respect…
Stop Talking.
Do!!
But he already does good stuff everyday. And it is wonderful!
You could say DO EVEN MORE. If that is even possible.
Frankly the talking does good too.
My quibbles are failing to get all his appointees to do all the good things they need to do. You know, Pam and Kash.
A lot of appointees are exceeding expectations. Marco, Hegseth, RFK jr.
And they can’t do everything all at once. But sometimes it feels like it with so much good stuff happening every day.
I agree, Jim, he has “done”, and continues to “do”, great things…
Against, sometimes, impossible odds.
I have every confidence in President Trump!!
That said, it was the ACTION taken (not the talking about it) that got those things done.
Imho, President Trump should not be “negotiating” with Bondi-Kash!
They serve at the pleasure of The President. If the President is not pleased with their service….

Every-single-day President Trump tries to make America better today, than it was yesterday – EVERY DAY !!!
But you and your “cracked maga”are focused on Epstein … NOT criminal illegal aliens murdering, raping & robbing Americans; NOT the billion$ of US tax dollar$ fraudulently stolen from WeThePeople; NOT our world-enemies intent on destroying the United States of America … nope … just Epstein files.
So, go ahead … introduce your perfect candidate who can explain how he/she knows better than PDJT and will expose the Epstein files and protect America and Americans from our enemies – foreign and domestic. And while you’re at it, the real MAGA voters want you to ask Hillary to explain why she didn’t use all that bad Epstein file information to defeat PRESIDENT Donald John Trump in 2016, 2020 or 2024 ??!!!
Sorry Patience … thought I was responding to criticism by Rich😡
First paragraph – Marvelous!
Second paragraph wasn’t it Rich who put forth ‘cracked MAGA’? And said we should reunite.
I think Patience was demonstrating progress in response to Rich. And Rich loved it.
If I think about it. There have been a lot of attempts to crack MAGA. Coming from all sorts of places. Levin VS Tucker. Candace VS TPUSA, bungling Epstein. The list is long. The goal is President Oldscum. And the permanent destruction of anybody who dares disagree with ‘their democracy’.
Let us get back to supporting the person we voted for. We may never be given that opportunity again.
That is why I think your first line is Marvelous!
Thank you … and yes Rich wrote “cracked maga”.
I believe the -MAGA is imploding- message flooding conservative sites like CTH, is mostly orchestrated by anti-MAGA bots … but … there are always whiners who (best example from another commenter I can’t find right now … so I will paraphrase) all mountains have loose rocks that fall off on single-issue upsets, BUT the mountain itself is a sold rock … like MAGA. Excellent!!!
If there were any ‘lists’, they’ve been destroyed.
If Epstein was blackmailing people, word would have quietly but quickly gotten out to not have anything to do with this guy. The billionaire club is pretty small.
Some teenage girls decided to play Pretty Woman and got in over their heads. Lesson learned.
Can we stop boo-hooing over some teenage hookers and start concentrating on the men who rape toddlers to death? Huh? Just maybe??? Pretty please?
At the top of the human trafficking and pedophile
predators….
I would not be surprised there are more than a few
who associated with Epstein.
Epstein and cronies go back as far as the Iran Contra and
their arms trafficking-smuggling operations internationally.
Their perversion for children, the set up and familiarity with
arms trafficking…🤷♀️just change one “product “ for another.🤬🤢👺
A possible “tie-in” of operations? Investigation into his associations
and affiliations is definitely worth pursuing.
Mediaite cites the Wall Street Journal which cites nobody except themselves for the source. “Trump aides told me”.
Funny no?
Doom and gloom time again?
what you read as “doom and gloom” i read as an appeal to get us back on track so we can win. refusing to acknowledge that anything might be running a little rough is not a virtue and does not help right the ship.
Coming from Ms. Doom and Gloom?
I support DJT 100%.
I also track every crumb of his successes.
His accomplishments are astounding.
I suggest that some folks familiarize themselves with those amazing feats.
He has enough enemies to bitch and complain incessantly.
That said- he’s human.
Perfection — he is not.
Muley’s life would be ruined if he couldn’t bitch. His basic approach is negative.
Connecting the dots to understand the huge shift President Trump is creating for our country is beyond Muley’s grasp. An example is how Iran is our business (stop the billions of dollars supporting jihadists all over the world including here, their main target).
Conversing with him does no good. In every sense of the word, he truly is a mule.
Good news from IL ‘hood…gas is now about 2.75/gallon when in the fall it was around 3.39…its slow but am starting to see it…
NY is still 3.19, at least in the rural area. Let’s clean out the scum and scams, taxes that pay for fraud. Just because we don’t have a lot of Somali’s we have illegals, Hochul and NYC.
There will always be cracks because not all MAGA are strong voters. Some do so for one reason or another. All mountains have rocks that fall. Yet the center and the strongest point will remain if we just stop whining and let Trump work his magic.
Excellent analogy!!!
MAGA … Making America Great Again thanks to PDJT !!!
🎯
Too many people associate conspiracy theories and “alternative facts” as fact, then they are upset when they don’t see the outcomes they want. Photoshop and Grok are powerful tools.
A tale as old as time.
Yes, Bondi is a joke, but your Epstein Psy-Op reeks of Massie Concern Troll.
It glows.
YES IT DOES!! Like glowing dumpster fire.
Hmm. Your concern is a bit strained to say the least. Epstein is a complete meant to be distraction. No one really cares about all that in the heartland. The real issues are the ones you are trying to deflect from, election reform, wars, invasions, corruption and theft of tax dollars by foreign aligned groups who use Americas laws against us. MAGA is still strong. You just are trying to make it sound like it isn’t. Time will tell who is right.
MAGA can be unified immediately if the Trump Administration simply arrests and indicts the criminal politicians that committed Treason and committed the entrapment scheme of Jan O6…
President Trump promised to clean out the deep state, yet after a year in office, hasn’t had his FBI or DOJ arrest and indict a single one of them.
Blaming the split on DeSantis is just a distraction from the real cause, which is the failure to arrest the criminal politicians.
Every-single-day President Trump tries to make America better today, than it was yesterday – EVERY DAY !!!
But you and your “cracked maga”are focused on Epstein … NOT criminal illegal aliens murdering, raping & robbing Americans; NOT the billion$ of US tax dollar$ fraudulently stolen from WeThePeople; NOT our world-enemies intent on destroying the United States of America … nope … just Epstein files.
So, go ahead … introduce your perfect candidate who can explain how he/she knows better than PDJT and will expose the Epstein files and protect America and Americans from our enemies – foreign and domestic.

The espstein files? Really? epstein files? Guess its going to be egg prices next.
MAGA is NOT cracking.
DJT is my President.
I voted for him to be my Leader.
There is none better than DJT.
I will continue to support him.

Saint Porphyrios, Bishop of Gaza in Palestine (+ 420) please pray for and protect the remaining Christians in the Holy Land and the Levant.
So my analysis of the top domestic issues we face are:
1. Corrupt Elections-election integrity
2. Spending corruption, wasteful spending, NGO spending
3. Illegal Immigration
4. Healthcare-ACA corruption
5. Economy
6. Crime
Now President Trump and his administration is trying to address all these top issues with resistance from the Establishment and rouge judges.
What is Congress doing- nothing. They won’t pass any Election Integrity legislation, they include money to keep the ACA alive, they put in money in spending bills to keep corrupt spending, and they just use processes to stop President Trump from getting nominations approved. But they do take a lot of vacations.
JMO
All those issues are really one in the same. They only exist because of the vile evil and corruption in DC.
TheAkh: ‘All those issues are really one in the same. They only exist because of the vile evil and corruption in DC.’
The DC Swamp is only the tip of the criminality iceberg. The evil and corruption which has descended upon this nation is everywhere to be found inside the local and state governments, and inside the array of vested interests which control those governments. This changes only if the people rise up to change it.
Fix voting…..we get rid of the problems.Why hasn’t one reporter asked Thune ….why hasn’t Senate passed Safe Vote act that passed in the House…..Not one.
indeed. one could make a legitimate case that most of the issues above either get addressed by default, or cannot be taken head on – UNTIL you cut off the money. and with all the “judges” doing their rogue BS, thats the one thing trump can and IS taking on. whether its USAID, fraud, PBS, UN, NGOs, foreign honeypots, balancing trade and our global handouts, illegal support and remittances, etc… that has to be the focus so future generations can set the rest straight.
personally i think 2026 is going to be a total bloodbath because trump has openly rejected key parts of his 2024 coalition, but any mention of that here is “doom and gloom” or “concern trolling,” so.. everything is awesome, carry on. at this rate, choking off the funds is about the best we can expect (and its a very good thing, obviously). the rest is neocon central but with the best of intentions, so we’re all cheering it on, all the way down that road where good intentions leads…
I would be REALLY careful making predictions about the elections this fall.
Unless, of course, you like the taste of crow.
The inexcusable retreat of Thune and Johnson from their duties to enshrine voting laws into legislation, including but not limited to requiring legitimate voter ID, is the single most infuriating, blood boiling thing for me.
Add in their reprehensible, deliberate failure to codify President Trump’s EOs?
Well, here I am…
Their lack of action speaks volumes, Betsy.
Volunes.
Much said in silence, my friend…
No…
Scratch that…
EVERYTHING!!!
Betsy …a bill passed in the House but Thune and the Senate have done nothing on it.
Of course they haven’t… On their desks…
Somewhere.
This is so true!
Instead of it excitement have found it more thrilling to call it an adventure!
Of the Indiana Jones variety.
Yes.
Or, more accurately, Alice and her “Adventures”.
Every day I am beginning to think we’re down there with her.
Today, Chris Plante was playing clips of former President Clinton, from 1995, regarding the criminality of illegal immigration.
Like the first law they broke, was coming in illegally…in his own, Clinton, voice also saying, the illegals need to go back.
So not a new issue for us or the libs….
CONgress won’t do anything to help Trump. Very corrupt. Sad.
Concerning Iran…
Always remember that Iran is a THEOCRACY, meaning that the leaders believe they have a direct line to Divine Will via The Koran and, therefore, they believe that…
...nothing they do can be wrong, including murdering thousands of their own people, whom they consider to be not just “enemies of the state,” but Heretics, i.e. people who have turned against Allah!
Today the body count among Iranian protestors for Freedom is supposedly well beyond 500, perhaps as many as 3000 have died at the hands of the regime.
Also keep in mind…
...that if the military buys into the same theocratic ideas as the leadership, they will keep pulling the triggers on their own people.
And even without a Divine Mandate in their heads, plenty of minions for mass murder were found by the Nazis in Germany and the Communists in Russia and China and elsewhere.
I would think, however, that targeted evaporation of the Mullahs and their sycophants at the top of the military might crack those theocratic beliefs, and the allegiance of the not-necessarily religious opportunists.
We shall see!
fortunately, i am not responsible for electing anyone in iran, nor for holding them to account for what they do to their people.
Absolutely. The Mohammadanians have slaughtered, tortured and converted the Persian people for centuries. Not our war, not our problem. I just find the absolute silence of all of the Free Palestine, This is not our land, brigade to be comical.
Bingo! We need to remove the weird beards in Iran or the 47 year problem can fester and return with a vengeance.
The Chinese buy – according to Google – 80% of Iranian oil exports.
Squeeze Iran and you squeeze the Chinese Communists: never a bad thing to hinder Chinese Communists, who are bribing our corrupt politicians.
That’s a wonderful ancillary. Squeeze the Chicomms…shout out to Rush.
Consult Israel on those targeted drones.
They seem, per the elimination of the Hamas hierarchy, to be darned good at it.
There is one scheduled to die either today or tomorrow, by hanging…
👩🏫 👩🏫 👩🏫 👩🏫
And always remember…..
Refresher course…. I have posted many times….
They have an Elected President
They have a 290 member elected Parliament
Including the equivalent of our Speakers of the House
There are seats in Parliament which are designated for…
Christian,Jewish and other religious minorities.
Women make up 8-10% of the Parliament.
An Elected President
And the different Cabinet positions are called Vice Presidents
Executive Affairs
Plan and Budget
Atomic and Energy Affairs
Women and Family Affairs
and other cabinet positions.
From what I researched…a summary would be…..
they have the government which operates like most.
After laws are passed…it goes to the equivalent of our
Supreme Court ..the one guy…and he determines if it
falls within religious boundaries.
Example…the government can try to pass same sex marriage-nope
the government can try to pass law to make abortion legal -nope
The big guy says…No- against religion.🤷♀️
Its actually called Fatwa.
💥 💥 💥 💥 💥 💥
This I found most interesting…..he is catching a lot of flak right now.
He will not allow the construction/use of….Nuclear Weapons!
Religious reasons….he forbids it. Religious Decree. Vetoes all the laws.
Feel free to fact check.🤷♀️🤷♀️
Thanks gypsy..many here do not know that.
The oft used: Hegelian dialectic; “Problem, Reaction, Solution” the formula that we’ve been battered with since Moby Dick was a minnow. The term coined in the 18th century by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, German philosopher.
But the technique has been used since the dawning of civilization but has hit total saturation since the invention of the print media, radio and the tippy-top the “tell-a-vision”.
The latest and greatest example is Minnesota. We literally have politicians vociferously defending fraud. This is not run of the mill fraud, mind you, between two people or parties, but an invasion force from Somalia fleecing the American taxpayer.
But back to the theme, the left/UniParty with the enemy MSM are setting up there version of the HD, Problem: “ICE Agents are the Gestapo/Rascist just hassling these, poor (black) immigrants, Reaction: Send in paid agent provocateurs to sell the NAZI narrative via the enemy MSM, Solution: ICE to stand down, allowing the fraud and invasion to continue
But the sane version for MAGA: Problem: 3rd World invaders bilking the American people and criminal politicians lining their pockets. Reaction: Send in ICE agents/military deporting all illegals and arresting criminal politicians. Solution: Get the invaders out of the country, recapture the $9 billion funds plus and jailing the criminal politicians.
This to me is a no brainer, but the rot is so pervasive for real justice to be served I have my doubts that it can be achieved in the normal. President Trump knows this better than anyone, evoke the Insurrection Act or National Emergency.
We’ll see.
The Greeks first presented the dialectic. An argument against someone or something, usually one sided. I’m good, the opposition is bad. And here are my hokey arguments. Think Obama making strawman arguments.
Hegel, a socialist, came up with a new twist. Since both sides use dialectics to dismiss the other, Hegel says a pox on both your houses, I am going to take the good from both, discard the bad and create something better.
Well, he never really does. And it is really just another argument elevating oneself over others.
Somebody quickly came up with terms most now use for Hegel’s dialectic. Thesis – antithesis – synthesis. And believe me it gets nutty from there.
The terms you use, problem – reaction – solution, are really different. Though there are definitely those out there who conflate the two.
Hegel’s terms get steered away from what he meant into some communist plot to control the world.
Yes, the communists perverted it into some weird thing they call material dialecticism. If you want to loose a few brain cells you can read their writings. But frankly, even though Marx studied Hegel, Marx was too much of an egotist to allow his movement to be dominated by somebody who died over three decades before he published Das Kapital and 17 years before his Communist Manifesto. What you won’t find is the terms being used for a plot to take over the world. Those were other plans.
And Communists like Hegel for his socialism more than for his dialectic.
I am less invested in looking up your terms. Some websites attribute it to a much more recent source. A whack job Brit named David Icke. He BTW, links it to Hegel, Illuminati and all sorts of other things.
I found an academic source that attributes it to a misinterpretation of Hegel. But that source also says some claim it has ancient origins such as the Roman Emperor Diocletian. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/2158244018762999
But it seems to have originated as a tool for conspiracy theory. As opposed to perverting it to conspiracy theory like was done to Hegel’s idea.
Whether it can be salvaged for good use is something else. Those are simple obvious concepts strung together in a sensible way, even if they aren’t used that way.
You referenced…David Icke? 🤣
David Icke wasn’t even born until 1952.🙄
That ended my research…and the validity
of your comment.😖
Didn’t know anything about him…and as soon
as I saw his birthday…I started laughing. 🤣🙃
Just one of the authors I was recommended to read
was Nesta Webster who wrote about secret societies
in 1924. It was interesting reading her books. 📚
just a simple search engine explains…quite nicely.😉
“The Hegelian dialect is a philosophical method developed by
philosopher George Hegel, which describes the process of
development through the resolution of contradictions.”
Proud of the younger generations…..they have found this to be true….
and what they call…….”The Noticing” continues…..👍👏

This is a good one used to launch Clean Break.
Seems you just confirmed my ‘ much more recent source’ comment.
Yeah, I find this nuttiness laughable too.
This nuttiness is a psyop, and a lot of us fall victim to it.
And that is not laughable.
Nor has laughter invalidated anything I wrote.
Give you an excuse to dismiss. But not invalidate.
The government has demonstrated an inability to responsibly administer the money we give them. Reasons? They are corrupt, don’t care or simply, it is beyond their ability to administer. They acknowledge 10% of all government spending is fraud.
Serious, drastic and consequential action needs to be taken. My suggestion, immediately cut all discretionary programs by 50%, fire a lot of people, particularly those administering these give-away programs, provide a balanced budget, pay down the debt.

Aggiegirl, does anyone here know what happened to Maquis? I’ve missed it if it’s been discussed, but I look for him everyday. He is missed.
Here about a week or two ago someone said there was some conversation about Maquis or a post by him over somewhere on the prayer topic.
When I went to go look I didn’t find anything so, I added Maquis to my daily prayers to pray for his health and well being.
Yes, we miss him terribly, I know I do.
Maquis is a good Brother.

Thank you. I will say a prayer for him as well.
Sure hope President Trump doesn’t leave the Iranian protestors “hung out to dry”.
Hopefully this is FAKE NEWS…
I really think it would help to pay attention to the history of how PDJT negotiates. A lot of “concern” posts on here are basically “why isn’t PDJT handling this the way I would if I was President”. I submit that PDJT understands negotiations better than any of us. For crying out loud folks, read Art of The Deal.
If you look at his history, he starts off with an absolutely over the top position like “annex Canada”. He does this to get the opposition operating in an emotional state. At the same time, when does he ever take anything off the table before the opposition is sitting at the table? Never. Ultimately he gives up the unthinkable in return for them giving up the unacceptable.
Some people are never happy or satisfied.
Well stated.
question the NYT…. and not sure about “path to citizenship”… but i think we shy away from the term “comprehensive” at our own peril.
the reason we have such chaos and radical swings back and forth on immigration is precisely BECAUSE we have not had an adult conversation about solving it and setting some new rules. “comprehensive” would simply mean we get to determine all aspects of it. will there be more walls and security? what are the guardrails? who do we want in and not in? if i need seasonal workers, how do we do it usefully?
at this late stage of the empire, much like rome, the congress is only too happy to shove it onto the emperor and blame him for all the ills of the republic, so that they can continue to rail against it.
Reagan was cheated on his Comprehensive deal to reform. And we had SSN turned into an ID.
The other side of negotiating can’t be trusted.
agreed and thats why i think “comprehensive” became a bad word. it was the code word of the scumbags.
all i am saying is that all aspects of immigration policy need to be revamped and then enforced: not just the wall or H1Bs or deportations, etc. until that happens, emperor newsom will swing us way back in the opposite direction soon enough.
Yeah, right. Reagan didn’t know that politicians often lie. The “he got conned” fairy tale was just used to placate the base. His administration knew good and well that there wouldn’t be any increase in border security.
I would respond that “we”, the American Citizens, have had a plethora of conversations about immigration and the path to citizenship since this Republic was formed..
Congress on the other hand has only given speeches and platitudes instead of actually listening to us and then enacting commonsense laws that are Constitutional and beneficial to We The People.
Friends don’t let friends believe the NYT.
PDJT has always insisted any path to citizenship must begin with legal entry.
There will be no amnesties under Donald Trump.
I’d be happy with a suspension of all immigration while this “comprehensive immigration policy” is formed. This would include the work visas.
After the Mayorkas Sedition, there needs to be a 10-year moratorium on all immigration, until all those alien invaders are rounded up and re-migrated back out.
And Mayorkas should have been arrested by now.
No sense in pointing fingers why he still walks free; we all know who has failed by this point.
Indeed. A man who should be most talked about is the least talked about.
No immigration for at least 10 years, and the Hart-Cellar (sp?) act needs to be repealed.
I like his current path.
Take the deal to go home. And we won’t block you when you apply to come legally.
Make us kick you out and you are blocked.
That’s an excellent starting point.
Beyond that, I’d like to see these things:
No dual citizenship.
🤬 🤬
You are Comprehensive Immigration Reform, sir.
Democrats only agree to steal, kill and destroy.
There is no need to be in a rush to grant citizenship. I never understood it. You can live and work just like anyone else but you cannot vote and you used to not be able to have a civil service job. I think people should have to wait 20 years. Long enough to find all their foibles. I would limit it to educated, English speaking and desire skills only. Obvious exceptions for new spouses etc.

Posted at JW, a few days ago I guess….liberalism is a mental disorder…and they want victims and they don’t care ‘who’…
https://jihadwatch.org/2026/01/minnesota-as-protests-escalate-leftist-women-bring-young-children-to-the-melee
That ring-nosed dingbat who committed suicide by cop by driving into the ICE Officer last week was exactly what they’ve been working toward for months and nothing would advance their “cause” more than getting a child harmed in the course of their “protests” right now.
The people emotionally manipulating these morons are no different than the savage, third world Islamic mutant terrorists who use women & children as human shields and then play the victim when their behavior gets an innocent killed.
It’s not a coincidence, they’re using the same playbook and have the same goals.
Their desperation is exceeded only by their depravity. I think more Amerucans are sick of this than they realize.
I know his plate is full, but it would really help if PDJT did a short five min. address to the nation on this topic from the Oval Office some evening this week because these assholes think they smell blood and are pulling out all the stops.
If a child gets hurt, I shudder to think of the consequences. IMHO in that cold, the kids need to be home indoors.
And out of the way of danger.
Unfortunately radical liberalism/leftism is such a devasting mental illness that, YES, a lot of them do want the criminals.
After all a mean tweet is way worse than rape and murder. They been
taughtindoctrinated since childhood that hurt feelings are the worse thing that can happen to you.Special mention to their “men” who for all intents and purposes say “here’s my wife, my daughter, take them and do as you please”.
Everyone knew or should have known that the GOP wasn’t gonna do anything to help Trump reform anything. They had a plan on how to blunt Trump in his second term and it has worked very well to-date. I see nothing changing that. They wasted the entire first year with political theater and other nonsense and didn’t do anything on Trump’s core agenda. The list of things they haven’t done and should have done would go from the ceiling to the floor and back.
The GOP has Trump backed into a corner and they know it. Thune and Johnson aren’t afraid of Trump one bit. If Trump comes after the GOP, he likely loses the house and senate and gets impeached. If he plays nice (like he has been doing), maybe he only loses the house and stays until the end of his term, but nothing on his core agenda will ever become law. This is your GOP working hard for you. There are still some pollyanna’s out there taking deep drags on their hopium pipes, but please step outside and get some fresh air. The GOP hates Trump more than the left does.
The left is fired-up about the 2026 midterms. They will flood the zones with votes while the GOP voters head to the tavern instead of the voting booth. No vote fraud will be needed to take the house in 2026. The GOP will see to that.
You must be fun at parties

“It’s the economy, stupid.”
Ten months is ten lifetimes in retail politics.

Guess we’re all just doomed then, eh?

Well, it’s up to us to make sure that the GOPe fails to succeed at neutering PDJT.
Push/pull or drag whomever wins the primary over the finish line in the general in spite of the GOPe’s efforts to lose.
As PDJT’s wingmen, it’s OUR job not leave him on the field alone. Forward. March.
The response of the RINO’s GOPe, and Dems, is fresh out of Machiavelli…
Passing tne BBB was not a waste 😎
Nor was killing off NPR, PBS, USAID, and a host of other radical orgs.
2025 was a foreign policy huge success! And continuing.
The blunt fact is that unless the filibuster is tossed, nothing can get done that isn’t able to be stuffed into a reconciliation bill. That’s tne brutal fact.
Johnson has been very good, and Thune has not been as bad as McConnell (faint praise, I know!)
I get it regarding frustration with assessing accountability. Bondi may be the biggest disappointment of all Cabinet members. And I also get it that the RINO Establishment myrmidons remain as NeverTrump as ever.
But characterizations like yours are far too negative and too broad brush.
This could solve a lot of problems:
https://ekolovesyou.com/p/the-insurrection-proclamation
1 The Democrats will NEVER quit cheating. NEVER.
2 The plan hasn’t fully worked. Trump has many good appointees. Some of Trump’s agenda was made law in the OBBB.
Not hopium, fact.
Hopium is thinking Blondie will Prosecute DOJ criminal actions against us by Obiden. Or that the hostile GOP Senate will allow a replacement that will do so.
Another fact is that we suffer from Biden’ Unaffordability and that Trump is easing the pain. But somehow we can’t get that fact through the Lamestream propagandists.
The facts support us. A activist engaged in the crime of obstructing federal officers was killed when she attacked an officer with her car. If Trump was hiding anything about Epstein it was evidence against Democrats. There are plenty more.
If we lose it will be to Propaganda Lies. And Democrat terror campaigns.
And yes, Powell and Senator Tillis (R-NC) are pushing Lies against Trump right now. While Soros goons are terrorizing Minneapolis to give Dems an edge by inflaming the terror.
Impeachment is just a sideshow. As we saw the first term, the Senate will refuse to remove President Trump from office.

Nice fail.
I’m always polite to Ad Rem, Sundance, et all. I understand that I am a guest in their house.
Nice effort to fight the blown margin.
But breaking up each sentence into one line for each word,
is pretty unreadable too.
And, while I have no Idea how your device, OS, Browser does page breaks,
this is pg 2 for me.
If you go to the first page of the thread you’ll see the margins are blown. Its not unreadable. Just a tad inconvenient.
If I remember correctly it happens when someone posts a long link before admin catches it. Pretty sure they’ll see it and fix it soon enough.
Reading while scrolling horizontally is more than just a tad inconvenient.
What I usually do is locate the post with the long/wide link and report that post so the Admin Lady gets a notification.
Since I couldn’t locate the post on page one, I posted my message up there and then reported my own post.
Miss Admin Lady is probably very busy or maybe she’s on her lunch break.
Usually, the page one night owls and early birds post some fairly interesting stuff.
Looks like today’s page two is cluttered with FUD posters, much to nobody’s dismay.
Seems like every time President Trump is successful or says anything promising, here come the MAGA Cracker FUD posters plastering the pages with hair on fire fake concern.
Ah, a day in the life . . .
0.o
I didn’t know posters could report the offending post. Good to know.
I hesitate to ask what is FUD….
Yes’m.
Scroll to the right past the date next to the name, you’ll see a little red flag to the right of that link emblem.
Click that red flag and it reports the post to the Admin Lady and she gets a notification.
At least that was how it worked when I was writing programming.
FUD posts:
FUD stands for “Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt,” a manipulative tactic used in marketing, sales, public relations, politics, and financial markets to influence perception by spreading negative, misleading, or false information.
FUD is frequently used to create panic or upset and is a common tool used by ‘concern trolls’.
A concern troll is an individual who pretends to support a cause or group while secretly opposing it, often by expressing “concerns” that are designed to undermine the group’s goals, sow doubt, or derail productive discussion.
They typically present themselves as allies, claiming to share the group’s objectives, but their criticisms are strategically framed to weaken the group’s cohesion or credibility.
The tactic is commonly used in online forums, political debates, and social movements, where the concern troll may suggest that certain actions could harm the group’s image, provoke backlash, or distract from the main issue.
Back long years ago, before videos and free online seminars became widely available I taught website owners and moderation staff members classes on identifying and dealing with trolls.
Anyway.
Most of the time when wide links are posted, the contributor isn’t even aware of it until after they refresh the page and can see the wide margin they created.
There is an edit time-out in the program that only allows an edit by the contributor within a certain amount of time.
So, unless the contributor quickly edits the long link, the administrator or moderator has to do it on their end.

Sadly, the Great Influencer, Scott Adams, has passed away. He was a fantastic guy, who liked and respected me when it wasn’t fashionable to do so. He bravely fought a long battle against a terrible disease. My condolences go out to his family, and all of his many friends and listeners. He will be truly missed. God bless you Scott!
“Marvel not that I said ye must be born again.”
“Unless ye are born of water and spirit ye shall not see heaven.”
“I am the way, the truth, and the light. No man cometh unto the Father except by me.”
I wonder if he came to Christ as he announced he wanted to do before he passed away? I truly hope he did.
I think, like St. Dysmus, he had the baptism of desire.
Me too. Ever since I heard him talk about considering the “risk benefit analysis” I’ve been praying for him. The message his ex-wife read indicates he did.
He did. 🙏🏻 In farewell letter, he said ‘after many Christian friends encouraged him to do so, he “accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.” Although he still had lingering doubt, he said that ‘would be rectified should he wake again in heaven’.

Sotomayor is positioned to support trans.
Of course all the liberal nut case women justices support men in women’s sports. It’s all part of the communist plan to destroy the family and erase the differences between men and women. Everyone is just a comrade.
This started long ago when the fema-Nazis pushed girls in boys wrestling. That broke the sex in sports barrier.
Every institution in western civilization has been feminized.
Does anyone remember the huge bruhaha way back…I mean WAY BACK….when the men in big sports
objected to FEMALE sports reporters in their sacred locker rooms?
Ask for the oldsters out there…
Yes. It was a huge controversy.
Now young women are forced to share bathrooms with mentally ill men.
Jackson lears more complex matters with great difficulty.

As usual!
We know which way the three Leftist women lean…but the question is what kinds of comments are Gorsuch, Roberts, and ACB making as I think it will come down to how those three vote that will decide the case! I would love for it to be a 6-3 decision but expect it to go 5-4 – just not sure which side will have 5 and which side will have 4!
And stupid. First they have equal protection under the law, in men’s sports.
Second it doesn’t affect their trans identity, they can compete in men’s sports wearing a skirt, make up and false eyelashes if they want.
My question to their lawyer would be if there is no advantage why aren’t trans men dominating in men’s sports like trans women are dominating in womens sports?
If there is not a common sense opinion rendered…
These women do know they have the power to collapse a whole millions of dollar industry…?
I marvel at your ability to stomach the nonsense for so long.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent Says There Are “DISTURBING TAPES” of Minnesota AG Keith Ellison Taking Money to Stop Investigations Into Somali Fraud
Scott Bessent:
“It’s hard to follow the money. There are evidently some disturbing tapes of AG Ellison in meetings with people who donated to him—calling for political favors to stop the investigations. We’ll see. I don’t want to get out ahead of the investigation. It’s going to be very methodical. But I can guarantee you—when the bear trap snaps, we’re going to get these folks. We’re going to follow the money, whether it’s here in Minneapolis and St. Paul or over in East Africa. There are tons of luxury properties and cars that have been bought over there.”
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/treasury-secretary-scott-bessent-says-there-are-disturbing/
Gosh Scott, my bank sends me a 1099 for $10 in interest, a statement showing where I spend every cent and they stop any ATM transaction if not 24 hours apart and you guys can’t track down billions? Really?
Yeah, I’m questioning “it’s hard to follow the money”. Unless they are passing around millions in cash how is it hard
He said he is methodical. That’s different than “hard.”
I don’t understand why when we have a Secretary who takes action that people like you go out of their way to gripe about it. Nothing is ever good enough is a perfect description.
I’m thrilled Bessent is going after Ellison and thrilled he’s committed to getting him.
The only thing better would be if he’d mentioned tampon, but that might be coming.
Attorney General Ellison secures dismissal of nonprofit officials over misuse of funds
March 29, 2024 (SAINT PAUL) – Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced today that his office has reached a settlement with Action for East African People (AFEAP), a Bloomington-based nonprofit, that has resulted in the dismissal of its founder and former executive director Ayan Abukar, as well as her daughter and AFEAP’s former treasurer and secretary, Deqo Siraj, over allegations Abukar and Siraj diverted millions of dollars in charitable assets for improper uses, including self-dealing and other personal, not charitable, uses.
…AFEAP operates Action Care Community Clinic in Bloomington, a dental clinic that serves low-income patients and others in need, including those from the Somali community and other uninsured and underinsured immigrant communities.

Too little, too late to cover your fat ANTIFA ass, son.
#LawyerUp,CommieTraitor!
Funny 😂 but TRUE ☹️
In the settlement,…AFEAP further agrees to:
rectify multiple governance failures on the part of the board of directors by obtaining training for board members about their duties under state law;…
Question: How does “training for board members” resolve issues of corruption if the organization was founded for purpose of fraud?
It is a fine point, but the Bessent quote does not support the first paragraph.
The video is not of him taking money. He already took their money as legal donations.
The video is supposed to be them demanding action for their money.
But I love Bessent putting Ellison on notice.
It is a fine point, but the Bessent quote does not support the first paragraph…
…But is it a relevant point? Does it alter scope of investigation?
No snark intended – sincere question.
If they handed money while demanding results it would be closer to a bribe. Quid pro Quo.
But we have all of these fictions that make bribery legal.
legal donations.
legal lobbying.
concerned citizens petitioning government. Yeah, I got the words from the 1st amendment.
Depending on what was said and promised and done, we get closer to Ellison knowingly aiding and abetting Fraud.
I am sure he Waltz and Omar are all direct beneficiaries of donations funded by fraud, of intentionally making the fraud easier, and making funds available for fraudsters and of covering up the fraud.
But proving that is hard. Unless there is video of them saying it. Or caught fraudsters start rolling over on the bums.
Did Robert Malley ever get investigated over Iran?
Just did a quick search and his story stalls out in late 2024 with the FBI investigating him… I guess that could still be ongoing.
Like the thief at the cross with Jesus, that acknowledged Jesus,
Scott Adam’s ( comic strip writer etc. )
also acknowledged Jesus 2 weeks ago:

BREAKING: The House Oversight Committee is now moving to hold BILL CLINTON in CONTEMPT of Congress after he refused to testify in the Epstein investigation.
Are they going to put Bill into Steve Bannon’s jail cell?
Yes I will believe it when I see it.
… or Navarro’s?
No one is above the law
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15460071/Bill-Clinton-DEFIES-Epstein-subpoena-contempt-Congress.html
They’re all laughing now.
And you know why.
No, now you know in what cause Navarro and Bannon went to jail.
Precedent set.
There is no crying “tyrant!” when the DS team already did the exact. same. thing.
That weapon was already destroyed, Haman style.
Thank you Dr. Navarro and Mr. Bannon. Your sacrifices will not have been in vain.
And once the Clintons walk that same path to the jailhouse door, maybe some “where are the arrests???” voices will find something else to post.
In the meantime, even the normies can’t completely ignore the obvious fact that an innocent person would have shown up. What is left of the Clintons’ reputation s just bit the dust.
In under 10 years they went from putative First Female President and Former President power couple to “pedophile-befriending rapist and evil witch” in the public mind and so down in history.
Billy Jeff and spouse declare themselves above the law…

Are you talking about BJ and the Hilldog?
You mean ‘Bubba’?
can’t say as there’s a reason for them to fear the law. Most of the left seem to wear the same bubble.
They constructed it.
Finishing listening to SCOTUS trans cases today. If the SCOTUS rules in favor of Trans, it will blow up Title 9 and girl sports.
Looks like the libs just can’t accept that XX vs XY exist.
Sorry ladies, you are not protected. I think the men on Scotus will vote for the women.
All this “trans” nonsense is simply an extension of the Homosexual agenda that’s been perverting our culture for decades.
In 1973, when the American Psychiatric Association foolishly capitulated to homosexual pressure groups and removed that condition from the list of recognized mental illnesses, many concerned Americans warned that this action would put us on a slippery slope to the societal acceptance of even more depraved deviant & dangerous sexual behaviors up to and including pedophilia.
Those concerned Americans have been proven correct and, half a century later, here we are.
The Left doesn’t give a flying fig about these poor souls. They view them as nothing more than another victim group they can cultivate, emotionally exploit and pander to for political power.
I listened a bit.
I swear, one of the Justices was asking the attorney for the plaintiff questions that seemed designed to elicit an answer from her that would get her labelled a TERF and thus put her life in danger from Transtifa.
She was dodging pretty nicely, but still had to say that men who merely identify mentally as women and do nothing about it should be excluded from women’s sports.
I think she’ll be excoriated on Blue Sky for that.
Agree. It will be boys’ sports or co-ed sports. Girls sports will end.
UP IN SMOKE – Iran’s Currency Totally Collapses

EXCLUSIVE: Somali Official Shows How Entrenched The ‘Fraud Pipeline’ Really Is | The Daily Caller
A follow-up letter from Abib to the auditor general, sent Sunday, expands on what he calls the “systemic looting of humanitarian aid funded overwhelmingly by U.S. taxpayers.”
More than $3.5 billion has been allocated to humanitarian assistance in Somalia by international partners, with approximately 90% coming from the United States, amounting to a direct “defrauding of U.S. taxpayers,” the letter claimed.
Funds intended for humanitarian assistance “have been captured and monetized” by family-run enterprises, according to the letter. It further alleges that three brothers of the chairman of the Somali Disaster Management Agency have received monthly “consultancy fees” registered under their wives names.
The fees have totaled $1.53 million over the past 36 months, effectively turning the agency into a “family-controlled criminal enterprise,” according to the letter.
I think it’s becoming clear that the reason we attack third world countries is to do two things. Pretend to need to flood our country with illegal voter refugees. And 2, pretend to give humanitarian aid to those countries which our politicians then leach off of. Wash rinse repeat. I truly believe this is what’s going on.
Someone needs to start arresting violent protesters.

Federal Agents Tackle Bald Female Protestor After She Throws Water Bottle at ICE Agents Outside Federal Building in Minneapolis (VIDEO)

Arresting may not be the problem, I’m assuming these people are getting bail and a favorable judge.
Question for lawyers, I’m assuming these charges would go before a Federal judge in the local jurisdiction? If the defendant is from out of state, could they be returned for charging and trial in their home state?
An Assistant U.S. Attorney can merely decline prosecution. End of story.
Not a lawyer …but my understanding is ‘persons who cross state lines to commit federal crime can be charged from any district where part of that crime occurred.’
Crossing state lines for criminal purpose begins at place of origin.
Until their are consequences for such action, the violence will continue to escalate.
Iranians Burn Down Mosques | The Daily Caller:
“… Iranian demonstrators set mosques ablaze during heated protests against the country’s Islamic government, according to local video and reports this weekend. Protesters in Iran have set numerous fires since the riots broke out Dec. 28, with Tehran’s fire department claiming as many as 34 mosques were burned, according to multiple outlets. One video verified by NBC News showed a crowd cheering Friday night while a Tehran mosque became engulfed in flames.
The mass uprising reportedly began in response to economic woes but follows months of instances of women shedding their mandatory headwear in a statement against the country’s forced Islamic norms. Another video posted by Reuters showed a mob vandalizing the Abuzar Mosque in Tehran on Thursday, scattering furniture and laying incendiary devices. The Iranian regime has massacred hundreds while clamping down on the disorder, the U.S.-based Human Rights Activists in Iran reports, according to The New York Post.
President Donald Trump on Jan. 2 hinted at possible military action if Iran kills protesters, leading to a social media duel with Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei over the following days that involved the ayatollah posting an image of Trump in a coffin. Trump previously bombed multiple Iranian nuclear facilities amid conflict with Israel, marking the most overt U.S. military operation against the regime in years.” …….
The Federalist–Banning Wall Street From Buying Homes Is Great, But We Need More:
“… The nation’s housing affordability crisis is no less than a moral issue. Today, the average first-time buyer is almost 40 years old, compared to the historical range of 29 to 33. The unaffordability of owning a house directly affects the birth rate. Single-family homes and a yard, no matter how small, are for children. Young couples, even though married, statistically postpone having their first child or bearing additional children until they can afford a home. So the unaffordability of homes directly relates to the small number of children born in 2025.
If America doesn’t fix the home affordability crisis, the native-born population will continue to have fewer children. Regardless of the GDP or the stock market, is a country really successful and wealthy if its young people can’t afford to get married, buy a small home, and have children?
Pundits such as Ben Shapiro (who live in multimillion-dollar homes in posh neighborhoods) have brushed aside the issue. If Americans can’t afford a home where they live, just move. Aside from smacking of elitism, this view lacks common sense. Young people have family and networks where they grow up, and these family bonds are essential to helping with children, pursuing a better job, or dealing with other life events and struggles. Viewing humans as economic computers both ignores this real-world common sense and leads to bad policy outcomes.” …….
This is why the Fed is crushing home ownership. It’s the Usual Globalist Depopulation Ploy.
They hate the Middle Class because it is a bulwark against their One World Government- madness.
Private Equity have proven themselves to be the worst sort of vultures with their Pump and Dump–Profit Uber Alles- program.
be at peace …….
Beautiful.
Thank you.

Elizabeth Warren Admits Democrats Have Lost The Working Class — Then Makes Interesting Admission About Trump (VIDEO)
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/01/elizabeth-warren-admits-democrats-have-lost-working-class
What was the interesting admission?
After her speech expressing some ideas, Trump actually called her to discuss them (bringing down credit card interest and housing). I think his call took her by surprise (she is such a Trump hater).
I didn’t see any mention by Trump,
And not sure if this is related, but he later posted on TS:
“Everyone should support great Republican Senator Roger Marshall’s Credit Card Competition Act, in order to stop the out of control Swipe Fee ripoff.

No Charges Are Expected Against ICE Agent Whom Renee Good Attacked

On Inauguration Day President Trump issued an Executive Order that the babies born to illegal aliens while they are here illegally will not be given American citizenship.
Of course Lawfare was ready with their lawsuit, and the SC has not yet decided whether our historic interpretation of the XIVth Amendment is correct, or the bastardized interpretation being used in the last 45 years.
Even if the SC decides this most important case accurately I doubt that they will honor that interpretation all the way back to President Trump’s EO, much less all the way back to 1983 – which would be justified but not politically palatable.
Therefore, a Red State such as Texas should, AT THIS VERY MOMENT, discontinue giving American citizenship to the babies of those who have stolen into the country. Cut it off NOW.
Yeah, the left will sue, but the SC Decision will occur before that gets anywhere.
The Neocons have to be rejoicing today if Iran falls. If they do, I hope we can get the billions Obama gave them back and hope the Neocons are exposed for what they have been doing sucking the war machine money.

Unlike that coward doctor from the Henry Ford Institute, Dr. El-Deiry is a hero.
Hey Pfizer, Mickey finger to you, you spawns of Satan. Maybe an extra one just for Scott Adams.
Also,
Read those Sun Tzu quotes at the end.
Exactly correct, except that Iran is only one arm of the octopus. It should be obvious by now that the deals with China and Russia to stand by as the Davosian installed regimes worldwide collapse (*but without collapsing the societies themselves into the kind of chaos that just serves the next installation puppets waiting in the wings) were done long ago.
Anyone else out there who thinks Moscow and Beijing are going to show up to drag their chestnuts out of the fire is fooling themselves. Cuba and Mexico DS, you are on your own. Might as well just surrender.
When POTUS appears at Davos in about a week, he will be wearing the crown of Victory.
Send that man some laurel wreaths.
I just can’t wait for the speech he throws at Rutte, Von der Satan, Macron, and Herr Shtarmer.
He is going to Davos to dictate the terms of their surrender.

His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse,
nor his delight in the legs of the warrior;

who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Pirro on Powell probe: ‘None of this would have happened if they had just responded to our outreach’
U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro claimed Monday that the Department of Justice’s probe into the Federal Reserve would not have happened “if they had just responded to our outreach.”
“The United States Attorney’s Office contacted the Federal Reserve on multiple occasions to discuss cost overruns and the chairman’s congressional testimony, but were ignored, necessitating the use of legal process—which is not a threat,” Pirro wrote in a post on the social platform X.
“The word ‘indictment’ has come out of Mr. Powell’s mouth, no one else’s,” she continued. “None of this would have happened if they had just responded to our outreach. This office makes decisions based on the merits, nothing more and nothing less.”
Pirro added, “We agree with the chairman of the Federal Reserve that no one is above the law, and that is why we expect his full cooperation.”
On Sunday, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said in a statement that the Justice Department served the Fed with grand jury subpoenas and threatened a criminal indictment related to his testimony before the Senate Banking Committee in June, when he discussed the estimated $2.5 billion renovations to the central bank headquarters in Washington.
