President Trump appears to be initiating a strategic retreat from sanctuary states and sanctuary cities. Via a message on Truth Social President Trump says he has instructed DHS Secretary Noem not to participate in “poorly run Democrat cities”:
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP – “I have instructed Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, that under no circumstances are we going to participate in various poorly run Democrat Cities with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help. We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists.
Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence.
In the meantime, by copy of this Statement, I am informing Local Governments, as I did in Los Angeles when they were rioting at the end of the Biden Term, that you must protect your own State and Local Property. In addition, it is your obligation to also protect our Federal Property, Buildings, Parks, and everything else. We are there to protect Federal Property, only as a back up, in that it is Local and State Responsibility to do so.
Last night in Eugene, Oregon, these criminals broke into a Federal Building, and did great damage, also scaring and harassing the hardworking employees. Local Police did nothing in order to stop it. We will not let that happen anymore!
If Local Governments are unable to handle the Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Anarchists, we will immediately go to the location where such help is requested, and take care of the situation very easily and methodically, just as we did the Los Angeles Riots one year ago, where the Police Chief said that, “We couldn’t have done it without the help of the Federal Government.” Therefore, to all complaining Local Governments, Governors, and Mayors, let us know when you are ready, and we will be there — But, before we do so, you must use the word, “PLEASE.”
Remember that I stated, in the strongest of language, to BEWARE — ICE, Border Patrol or, if necessary, our Military, will be extremely powerful and tough in the protection of our Federal Property. We will not allow our Courthouses, Federal Buildings, or anything else under our protection, to be damaged in any way, shape, or form. I was elected on a Policy of Border Control (which has now been perfected!), National Security, and LAW AND ORDER — That’s what America wants, and that’s what America is getting! Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
I would not be surprised to see both Kristi Noem and Tulsi Gabbard pressured to resign by the White House inner circle.
W T F !!!
So, the Dems get to destroy these cities and states with or without ICE presence?
Is Trump setting up the Federal Peroperties as Ft.Sumters??? If so then TSHTF as Military will Eradicate the democRat Insurrections.
A good commander chooses his ground not his enemy.
That might be the goal….let them do it to themselves and have the indignity of having to ask for help?
“please and thank you are still the magic words”…who said that, LOL Some dinosaur…and a purple one.
I DITO THAT!!!
detto, from Italian ~1620, past particple of dire (‘to say’ eg, voir dire). Informal use, ditto.
It isn’t the so-called retreat I’m concerned with; it’s the possibility that Noem and worse, Gabbard being forced to resign.
And I wonder who has gotten to him, and how they convinced him this is a good idea.
Of Trump, we have to look at the big picture.
He’s doing a solid for the R party (spit). He reasons not to get hung up on this one issue, especially with the mid-terms coming this year.
He has not given up.
Watch how now the stupids in the blue cities will soon be asking for fed assistance. He draws down so to have tremendous leverage soon to come.
The feds did not create the troubles. The stupids do not know how to restrain themselves. These are facts.
The feds (partially) withdrawing, the free for all in the cities will increase. The cities will cry for fed intervention. President Trump will set his terms. They will have no choice but to comply.
On target.
Well, here is another thought: ICE Works hard and fast with the cooperative Red States/Cities. Clean out the scum/cockroaches with the help of local officials and law enforcement. LOTS of fast gain with less BS pain. So, if I am a cockroach, I just go to a Blue Sanctuary state/city. Ha Ha–I can commit crimes here with no repercussions. Now–many happy Red State Voters. Crime goes up in the Blue States, Their Voters are unhappy, and the Cockroaches are more concentrated. Easier to wipe out concentrated Cockroaches! I am up to watching this play out!
As a friend of mine says, “Sounds like a plan.”
I hope the “plan” includes ALL federal funds being stopped to all sanctuary states and cities until ALL laws are enforced.
I do too. I think that should have been done a long time ago.
That would be the logical thing to do.
Read my mind.
Wayne Alan Root had a column suggesting DJT just concentrate on the Red States, thereby driving the illegals to the Blue States, eventually overwhelming them financially and socially.
And most Red State residents believe in the 1st AND 2nd Amendment!
Even here in blue blue Austin Texas, there was an ICE protest, naturally reported breathlessly by the local newsrag. But they did have to report that “hundreds” turned out! And a lot of them thought they were protesting the recent ice storm! Not much of an event…
Im on board with Jerry, let these idiots eat themselves, the good citizens will move out, birds of a feather will prevail, these states will become dead zones
“Im on board with Jerry, let these idiots eat themselves, the good citizens will move out, birds of a feather will prevail, these states will become dead zones”
Me too (on board with Jerry). I think this is a good plan from President Trump to let them suffer their own consequences. However it is very important to reiterate that federal funding must stop being sent to the renegade blue cities/states!
Meanwhile, in this era of information, concentrate on those who have acted as domestic terrorists.
The Signal chats have been hacked, the StopICE website/app has been exposed. All names, addresses, etc are now known to DOJ.
Those people are freaking out. Even elected and appointed officials and judges are in on it. They have been caught red handed.
I may not like how this is being prosecuted, but this cleaning house is what I voted for.
I agree. Let these blue cities self-destruct. It will be a beauty to watch.
Trump should just gather up the scum from red states and ship them to sanctuary cities.
Look, the truth is Americans haven’t suffered enough to come to their senses.
Possibly. I choose to be optimistic and hope that they need the court houses and federal properties protected in order to prosecute the criminals that are responsible for election fraud and billion dollar theft.
Alinsky said what drags on becomes a drag. If all the old hippies and paid protestors want attention, they will have to go to the federal buildings.
Instead of putting ICE agents in urban warfare on the ground of the mob’s choosing, make them come to militarily fortified areas. If where they commit federal crimes if they interfere with anything.
Interesting thought. What happens if the brownshirts in commiemommysota burn down the Federal courthouses? Do the trials against tampon timmy and other fraudsters then just not happen? Or do they get relocated to a place that isn’t in rebellion, say Montana, and the trial take place with a judge in that district and a jury pool from that state?
I would volunteer for that jury pool. I’ll even pay my own expenses. I need a vacation real bad.
I agree 100% with you. Now, all of the scumbag illegals can scurry to their favorite Sanctuary city/state and enjoy nirvana.
This makes it easier to choke off the Federal $$$$ going to illegals. It will be a few states that don’t get money because of their sanctuary policies and non-cooperation with the Feds.
My thoughts exactly! Help the red states crackdown and when the cockroaches flee to concentrate in the blue states. Let them choke on their “sanctuary” policies.
Exactly; which is why I’m not terribly concerned about the “retreat”. The pros/cons of that can be debated. There’s zero upside and loads of down, by dismissing Noem & Gabbard.
We’re already sorely disappointed with Bondi and Patel; Gabbard and Noem are carrying the entire load against the Deep State.
I’ll bring the popcorn. This is gonna be a blockbuster!
problem wont just be the santuary states and cities for the illegals committing the worse of the worse crimes will committ therir crimes and then run back to t the Santurary states and cities, probably over and over again.
This is absolutely insane. Why in the hell is this tolerated in the United States of America? Prosecutors, DAs, activist judges, corrupt law enforcement, crooked politicians, anybody and everybody that allows this to continue should be arrested, heavily fined, bankrupted, and put away for a long, long, long time. Dealing with the illegals committing the crimes should be a lot easier. No bail, quick trial, death penalty. Problem solved.
Wish I had an answer — this has been going on far too long.
Biggest issue due to the crime FBI crime reports and the catch and release of even the most horrendous criminasl Americans dont see the actual numbers
As it stands right now most of the ethnic groups that are illegals are categorized under whites, making it look like its whilet and not illegals This does not make sense since there have segregated out ethnic groups that aren’t even 1% of the American population.
look at the report–Where is the Hispanic group, middlle eastern goup and etc.
A “sanctuary city or state” is really a Treason Zone.
To me I equate it with places like in the old west days were criminals could go to places where the law couldn’t touch them for safety in between crimes they committed, like the Hole In the Wall.
When this Meme first came out it ws probably a bit of an ocver estimate, but now its probably and UNDER Estimate.
Surrender is awful. Never thought I’d see this.
Sigh…..
Not surrender, strategic chess maneuver…sometimes you have give your ‘enemy from within’ enough rope to hang themselves. Plus, this move gives these treasonous cities what they want; chaos and anarchy. So be it.
Betting the next move will be PDJT pulls all Federal funding…money talks…let these cretins whine.
Better do the judges and staff too.
Like the low-level Federal judge who is demanding Ramos, the illegal father and his child, be released. More subversive anarchy from the bench (‘Black robes’ newest definition). MSM is couching it from the 5-year-olds point of view as typical (like making Pretti look more normal and handsome in a photoshopped image, not the loon he was).
Just say no. Andrew Jackson did.
I don’t think this is a surrender, just repositioning.
Sen. Schumer, democrats and some RINOs want to kneecap ice. So President Trump is listening.
If sanctuary state officials don’t want ice officers in cities that’s ok. The elected officials will be in charge.
The Only exception is Federal property . Federal property will be vigorously protected by Federal agents. Don’t mess with the Feds.
Sounds like a plan to me.
Yes. I am disappointed that many people here immediately think that PDJT is going to let these demons win.
They tried to assassinate him twice, bankrupt him, impeach him twice, frame him for having documents, slandered him, maligned him, and more.
He is not stupid and he knows these losers better than they know themselves.
Alas … do I remain a citizen of the United States? Will my government protect me? Perhaps not if I live in the “wrong” state. I understand the possible need for a strategic retreat … but will there ever be a line drawn past which we do not retreat?
No. The US as we have been told exists (if it ever did) is over. I guess we could all retreat to mountains, hills, and hollers. But they will eventually come for us there.
I had foresight in 1992 when I heard him speak about his campaign platform. I knew he spoke the truth and his warnings were correct.
By 2050 there will be almost 2.5 times as many people here as in 1960: 420 million. The share of the population of European descent will be a minority as it is today in California, Texas and New Mexico. And that minority will be aging, shrinking and dying. There will be as many Hispanics here, 102 million, as there are Mexicans today in Mexico…
— State of Emergency-Pat Buchanan
” Strategic Relocation” if the USA fails, the CSA will rise.
Citizens are already Voting with their feet moving South. Cities remain a problem though, even in the South as they are democRat.
They remain a problem because weak republican’t guvnahs won’t move against their communist mayors, prosecutors & legislators.
If ever a line was going to be drawn, it would have been drawn by this President. And now it apparently will not be drawn.
Concentrate on the fraud there for now. Clear out Heritage American cities and states at the present.
Perhaps secret kettle strategy. Clear out Heritage cities, drive remaining illegals all into sanctuary cities collapsing them, and then pounce.
(I wrote this after I wrote below, thanks to Colkitto I thought of this)
WHY is funding not completely cut OFF foe illegals???
Pretty Obvious the RINOs want to keep funding them and the Color Revolution stuff overseas
Exactly.
Excellent to review your previous post, however….. What and Where is a Heritage City???
democRats control All Large cities. Medium sized in NC or GA are also democRat a very few may be rinoRat, which is little consolation,imo,
It seems to remain an Urban vs Rural Split to a greater or lesser degree.
Chaos leads to Insurrection to CW or no CW, just Capitulation.

Who will replace those two?
Deepstate/oligarch approved hacks that will open borders and sell off our natural resources to the highest bidder while giving up what’s left of our sovereignty.
Are you referring, for example, to Hillary’s selling 25% of our Uranium reserves to Russia for a $147M donation to the Clinton
FoundationCampaign coffers?I didn’t read it that way.
It clearly states, “…with regard to their Protests and/or Riots unless, and until, they ask us for help.”
Does anyone have a map or a list that shows the “sanctuary” cities and states?
Is it a blue state or city? There’s your answer.
https://cis.org/Map-Sanctuary-Cities-Counties-and-States
Thank you Harry N.
Map is too optimistic. Doesn’t list cities I know are democRat, libtarded polezi in NC, GA, FL,AL,MS
You can add the state of Virginia to the sanctuary state list. We were “safe” under Youngkin, but not with this new CIA governor.
My VA county has been a sanctuary county for years. We have one of the largest MS-13 population and human trafficking is real here.
I think this is a poor decision. Should have been the opposite. Put overwhelming force on the ground, flood the zone, and escalate. Do it state by state, I would put every federal law enforcement officer and the army on the ground. Make the people and the state own the problem.
Declare an insurrection. Put a military governor in place. Treat it like reconstruction. Lots of legal precedent to support this move.
Weak republican’ts in CONgress are already defecting. That’s a very real problem.
Weak republicans in Congress, pronounced “uniparty”, have been a very real problem for several decades.
By April, 2026 the democRats will Insurrect across the country, I agree Trump should Act Now. “Nip it in the Bud”
I also hear Hilarity Rotten Clintoon cackling her infamous WH quote: “Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda”
Your suggestion is exactly what the insurrectionist want. Do not let your enemy choose the ground you will fight on.
How is this strategic… Democrats will just be emboldened and brag about it. The US is literally reduced to having embassies in rebel states that have effectively seceded from the Union while still taking our money.
I think that was sarcasm. Notice the GOP/Big Pharma hack SuzyQ is labeled Trump’s Boss in the bottom picture.
Yep. Trump is not going to be Lincoln, as we all hoped
Rebel states. Exactly. And the Union just gave up.
Management axiom learned long ago:
“What you permit you promote.”
Based on what I know now, this is a strategic mistake. Along the lines of “two weeks to stop the spread“.
Sanctuary cities are the source of most the fraud and election rigging. Actions of sanctuary cities negatively impact everybody in the United States. Hopefully I’m wrong and this is part of a larger strategy I can’t see yet but for now I’m disappointed.
Question: Is it possible to invoke insurrection in sanctuary states: cut off all fed money that funds programs that have been defrauded?
Protect federal property, etc., per the President’s order?
I’m still thinking through this idea . . .
Yes…and PDJT will do exactly that, especially when those running these cities are defiantly opposing Federal law, like Klobuchar says she will continue Walz’ dementedness. Another prime example of immorality and lawlessness is Mayes, Arizona’s attorney general (an LBGT2Spirit type), who has been in the media encouraging armed citizens to fight against law enforcement over the enforcement of immigration laws.
Can’t fix this with anything but pulling Federal monies…starve the beast until it expires.
Sanctuary Cities are like Maduro and Venezuela. VZ was beginning to rot the whole Hemisphere. The blue cities and states are doing the same inside the US.
This whole situation complexifies what the political climate will be at the time of the State of the [Dis]Union Speech.
Confusing.
At every level.
There’s a freeway ramp protest in my little town in Oregon today.
It’s a self-defeating thing, isn’t it?
“We won’t interfere, we won’t enforce federal law….unless you ask us to….”
Exactly what the unAmericans have always wanted.
Lack of law enforcement results in lawlessness, I think………………………….
I’m done. He has had such a weak 2nd term. If he forces Tulsi out, I will assume he’s actively working with the deepstate and their owners to destroy the US.
I guess the US will fall like Europe. This was our last chance to save the US and likely western civilization. I just can’t figure out if life would be better under China or the muslims. China is on record wanting to eradicate the US population and take control of our natural resources where the muslims will kill or convert us and take our children as sex slaves.
I guess I’ll be rooting for China but prefer an asteroid.
With friends like you…
Or people that tell the truth about where we are headed. The globalists don’t even try to hide their plans.
There are people working today, as they have for centuries, to bring about the appearance and reign in the world of the Anti-Christ.

Live Free or Die wasn’t a bumper sticker in 1775,76
Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be one in 2025,26 either
some still sit in trees all day for a chance at a deer
Or we just call bs on Trumps 50d grand strategic chess game.
He blustered and the Dems called his bluff, now he looks weak.
There’s a reason they call him TACO.
Yesterday we “let him cook.”
Today some are “done.”
Consistency please.
Who was letting him “cook?” That sound too similar to the 4-D chess people in the 1st term.
That is unfortunate news.
I think Susie Wiles just betrayed the President. This is an awful mistake. It will undermine the rule of law not only now but in the future. For the first time, I have to consider that President Trump doesn’t get it and has lost the plot. This is a black day for America.
Susie is a P O S
Or he gets it, and is under the control of the deepstate and/or globalists. SuzyQ was probably placed as his handler. He might have even agreed to a handler because getting back into office gave him peace from all the lawsuits and threats of prison.
Well someone is playing the role of Judas Pence for sure.
Does Wiles write these statements for the President?
I don’t see any problem with this statement. Please understand the stated premise. PDJT stated clearly that ICE or Border Control will not be involved in quelling riots. Which fundamentally I would agree with, they are by definition law enforcement entities focused on capturing illegal immigrants for detention and removal. They are not law enforcement teams for riot control. Why should the Trump administration get mired in leftist run states that are allowing their cities to be turned into war zones. Never, ever make someone else’s problem your own. Let the Waltz and Newsome’s of the world own this. So, I wouldn’t read too much into this other than this is a wise statement. You know that the Democrat Governors are just goading Trump to bring in ICE agents en masse and then allow for the agitators to do their thing and create a situation whereupon ICE or Border Patrol becomes the story. I urge all to carefully read the statement, its says nothing about ending the tracking down and arrest of illegal immigrants.
…but the riots being discussed are specifically for the purpose of preventing enforcement of federal laws….it looks like the mom giving in to the two year old tantrum because the child has to make choices, and she’s not going to stop the child from breaking things until he wants her to. There’s a bunch of swiss cheese holes lining up, as Blancolirio would say.
I agree with Colkitto:
Concentrate on the fraud there for now. Clear out Heritage American cities and states at the present.
Trolls here look for anything to whine about without understanding what President Trump is actually doing. Trump throws out statements to distract and divide the enemy and then he gets what he wants. Greenland was a perfect example, but these folks just don’t ever learn.
Wrong, Trump just gave into two tier justice system. Dems can flaunt the law, the rest of us can suck on it. When Dems get back in power you can guarantee the GOP governors will roll over for what ever they demand.
Thanks; you’ve got it. Never thought here would go doomer but what a reaction…
Well … I suppose that’s both reasonable and fair. And because I live in a blue state, I’m over-invested in an outcome that shifts at least some momentum in my favor. If I could, I’d move.
I’m really worried about creating a two-tier country. I think this latest move gives the bad guys greater leverage and is NOT sustainable. It’s the old “house divided against itself” problem. We might be able to sustain that for a time …
Trump has proven himself canny and principled. He holds the country’s future in trust and that’s no small task. Prayers up …
Never, ever make someone else’s problem your own. – Well said Jet.
“Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.” ― Napoleon Bonaparte
How did that work out for him?
Napoleon was unable to stop his enemies when they were not making a mistake.
Exactly, I couldn’t agree more!
Let the sponsors of this insurrection reap the consequences of their actions. Neither Kristi Noem nor Tulsi Gabbard are going anywhere but forward under the direction and approval of President Donald Trump.
Thank you for your wise comment! Our Republic does not offer an open door to the federal gov’t unless they want help! That means if a democrat run state has problems they can choose to refuse assistance.
This also means that within a particular state the people can rise up against their state leaders and remove them forcefully from power! (This would only happen in extreme situations AND by LEGAL residents of the STATE and the USA)!!!
This is a major bummer. If Trump goes down this road again (like in 2020), I can no longer blame “those around him” and “he didn’t know how Washington works”. I also noticed “if they ask for help” language, and of course they will not.
I am beyond disappointed – this is like an 80% American support issue (deporting ALL illegals) and he and his administration will cave to the insurrectionists????
This is the end .
Relax, this is The Art of War do you all think he will abandon his plan?
They have fully exposed themselves and their gameplan. Serious business folks.
They’ve exposed themselves for years now and nothings changed.
Never ever take the boot from the neck of these Marxist and retreat.
A perimeter should have been placed on day one and squeezed it completely instead of allowing this to continue.
Stupid F**king move
Never ever take the boot from the neck of these Marxist and retreat.
~ 1,000% correct.
Look at the picture of Susie Wiles standing behind him smiling.
First thing I noticed, plus the sweatshirt with BOSS on it.
I think that was put there by SD. Doesn’t look real.
I truly believe she is a Bush Plant to take President Trump down.
Israeli Plant?
She is. She is on record as having said that she sees her job as turning MAGAs into Republicans (rather than Republicans into MAGAs).
Doesn’t sound like a retreat to me? He is saying “in regards to protests and riots” and that doesn’t sound like it is related to immigration enforcement or anything.
Boom, nail on the head. I just commented above ‘Read the statement’. This isn’t a retreat, rather its clarification of what the role of ICE and Border Patrol is. It is not involved in riot control. But, here we have a bunch of treeper babies crying that its all doom and gloom before even reading and understanding the exact premise of what PDJT clearly stated. Again, never make someone else’s problem your own. PDJT understands this completely and not allowing ICE and Border Patrol getting sucked into the Insurrectionist rat hole that Democrats are trying to dig Trump into.
Concentrate on the fraud there for now. Clear out Heritage American cities and states at the present.
I like to follow the 42-78 hour rule on matters such as this
They’re not crying it’s “doom and gloom”.
They’re CORRECTLY noting the press, the Dem strongholds, Antifa, the rioters, and sheep Americans view this as Trump admitting he WAS WRONG and IS SORRY and WILL NOT INTERFERE WITH THEIR FRAUD RINGS OR SANCTUARY STATUS.
This move by Trump DOES INDEED give an enormous psychological victory to the Communists who’ve taken over America’s cities and the minds of the sheep. It’s a moon high moral boost that makes Communists like Walz, Frey, and their minions in every state, think:
WE BEAT THEM ONCE, WE CAN BEAT THEM AGAIN. NEVER STOP AGITATING, FOLLOWING, DOXING, PUSHING, PUNCHING, SPITTING, ORGANIZING, INTERFERING, BLOWING WHISTLES, USING BULLHORNS, BLOCKING TRAFFIC ………. AND EVERYTHING ELSE WE DID TO WIN THIS ONE.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That’s what the enemy is now thinking. And so is the average, un-political American.
And the surrender or retreat of your opponent is a powerful instrument of changing public opinion.
In effect, He said to the liberal controlled states and sanctuary cities: If you don’t call on us for help, you can ignore the law…
Not true. It’s their own rioters LoL
And our law. That is the exact message.
Of course it is true… Yes, they own the rioters but the rioters are breaking the law by protecting the illegals and Trump just told the mayors and governors that they don’t have to arrest the rioters and that the federal government won’t come arrest them…
President Trump is a Master Marketer. As the weather warms the protests will become larger and more violent.
Why have those kind of optics the summer before the Midterms?
No ICE, no protests. Give the more rope to hang with.
This doesn’t mean they have stopped investigating who is coordinating and funding these thugs.
I agree with this move.
I never thought the day would come but is it possible the pressure of the job has gotten to him?
I agree with Colkitto:
Concentrate on the fraud there for now. Clear out Heritage American cities and states at the present.
Or this is why he was allowed to win in 2024. They have the cheating down at this point. They probably could have handed it to kamala.
No.
PDJT thrives under pressure.
If this is what it appears to be and there is another round of high-explosive nonsense in Iran, it’s going to get unruly in the bleacher section.
But I would also like to point out, as much as I dislike Czarina Suzy and just about everything she seems to be pushing, I have to wonder if a retreat on this front has do with the fact that Congressional Republicans are salivating at the prospect of any excuse to support impeachment proceedings against nearly every official of this administration, including the President.
Pushing further into a confrontation and invoking the Insurrection Act will not end well with a hostile Legislative Branch and a unreliable Judicial Branch.
Makes sense. All politics is local.

Enter a blue city at your own risk. Pretty clear.
Look at the smirk on that witch’s face. She needs to be gone post haste! I smell a stinking, dirty, rat!
I am hoping later we see the strategy behind this, otherwise, I am soooo disappointed.
The “demon”rats , the rinos and the “con”gress in general are going to celebrate this as a win.
I sure hope Tulsi and Kristi remain. I hate to see them gone. This reeks of that witch’s interference.
I understand this as we (ICE) will continue to do deportation pickups in other cities.
We (ICE) will continue to protect federal buildings and property from rioters.
The mission continues without the now-purposeful creation of martyrs willing to die for the cause of illegal alien criminals. President Trump knew good and well the crazies will encourage and manipulate more people to get killed; something President has made clear he abhors and will not tolerate.
It beats them at their own game.. for now.
Ps, however that will not prevent the Amalgamated Union of The Never Satisfied from pouncing to announce the their disappointment, and various descriptions of impending doom, of course ignoring the words clearly stated by the President.
Except for the POTUS Oath thingy
To Preserve,Protect,and Defend the Constitution of the USA.
demoacrat States, Cities are in Rebellion, Insurrection.
But I’m as Ready and Pre-pared as possible in the Southern Appalachian Redoubt.
Swim or Sink is Trump’s policy CYA, conduct yourseves accordingly
Thanks Alleycats. I have calmed down since my above response. I am seeing a clearer picture now and feel this is a strategic move on President Trump’s part. It is beginning to make sense. He will let them wreck their cities, but will protect the Federal Facilities. I am assuming the Federal funding will stop and then things will really get interesting.
Ice and Homeland Security can continue to pickup the illegal criminals and deport them in other cities.
I am still not happy about that witch wiles though. There are much better choices than her. I think Ric Grennell would be an excellent replacement for her. I guess “we shall see,” as our great President likes to say.
You’re welcome sweetie. I would love to see Stephen Miller replace Susie Wiles. He is already deputy chief.
This is a huge, huge mistake. In one fell swoop, by giving in to the communist insurrection, Donald Trump has just lost a good part of his MAGA voter base and the 2026 mid-terms with it.
I am glad you are not in a foxhole with me. I don’t think you understand the battlespace.
A few thoughts. Must win midterm. The planned riots and anarchy momentum now must be controlled/blamed on others. Buying time to understand the network. Focus on fraud, hard to defend stealing money from needy. Hard line on government buildings may mean there are plans to expand rioting. But we only have three years to fix this.
Interesting he plainly stated to return they must say please.
If Tulsi and Noem go, a lot of his base will sit out the midterms – especially Tulsi. He can’t afford to have five percent of reliable voters sit home.
I can tell you I will find it hard to motivate myself to vote for a GOPe hack when our corrupt IC is given free reign to deatroy our country and control our elections.
There are 10 months until the midterms. That is the timeframe that matters.
Unwad your panties folks. NOWHERE in the statement does Pres. Trump say immigration enforcement will be curtailed. Feds will only be protective of federal property. Let the wackos burn down everything else. For those who feel abandonment, the majority of voters approved the crazies they currently have in office.
Nowhere does it address the continued democRat attacks either unless another “Don’t do that” to a spoiled toddler ever rectified anything.
This is the beginning of the end of MAGA.
Trump is listening to the wrong people in the White House, and those people will now go on the warpath to see that Noem and Gabbard, among others are gone.
Say goodbye to the midterms. President Trump will be seeing impeachment proceedings once again.
WTF! He definitely wants to lose the mid terms! There are republican and independent voters sadly stuck in these hell holes!
Trump is making a big mistake by backing down from the left and if Tulsi is forced to resign I think the rest of his term is going to be a big loss for MAGA IMO.
Really getting tired losing to the left.
Is this a set up to use Insurrection Act response if enough Fed buildings are attacked/destroyed?
Good point there.
i was wondering the same thing…
is PT baiting a mousetrap with federal assets?
we all know how the leftists love to “challenge” PT.
attacks on federal buildings/property would be incontrovertible justification for stronger measures.
At least there area a few people here using logic and reasoning instead of reacting emotionally like the retards on the left. Everyone is pro Trump until the President changes tactics and right away they go from being pro Trump to armchair political advisors. And they say they are Pro Trump and MAGA. I say horseshit.
Yep. President Trump is likely setting up the literalists who hang on every word he utters without looking deeper. The Art of the Distraction.
I think our host probably suspects this and is baiting the Rolcons and folks who don’t stop and think about PDJT’s history of saying something that sets peoples hair on fire only to have it not mean what everyone immediately inferred. Hence the question that leads the title of the article.
The $64 question is – exactly what is PDJT planning that he wanted the hyperbolic left and media distracted from seeing or even suspecting?
I can think of several big moves both domestically and foreign. Illegal immigration is a white hot button now so it’s the ideal area in which he can toss a “grenade” in the form of a sudden policy announcement that appears to be a radical change of direction. “Appears” to be………..
Now that point is something to seriously consider FarmerRen. Thanks.
Ft Sumter fell 34 hours after the attack began, and the war started.
Four years later 600,000 were dead.
90 years after the war ended I was listening to the stories of how my family was treated.
Neither side should forget those lessions.
No war is the best choice.
Remember how the riots on behalf of St. George of Fentanyl were allowed to go mostly unchallenged in 2020?
Yeah, me too 🙄
Terrible development.
I wonder what sort of hold does Wiles have over DJT?
It’s not her but who she works for/with. She is a GOPe/uniparty hack with ties to Big Pharma and the grift and corruption that go with both.
Maybe his election was dependent of agreeing to a handler. Reagan was forced to take George Bush as his VP despite his massive support among the electorate.
The Bushies are grinning and waiting for 2028 the End of Trump, if not impeached sooner
This is preparation – “notice” to restore order or he will invoke the Insurrection Act.
Read it again.
i think this is quite possible.
and sorry!
didn’t read far enough down before i posted a reply above echoing your thoughts. 😁
He keeps making poor decisions because he is in an insulated bubble surrounded by snakes like Wiles etc….
The US is done:(
I have seen a couple of GOP Congressman out pushing amnesty again. I guess the money men are ack in control.
Trump is a lame duck at this point. The second they get another Democrat or GOPe in the Whitehouse they will reopen the border, fly in millions of more muslims, and grant amnesty to the 40 or 50 million currently in the country.
We will be the UK in 10 years or less. Wait for the speech police if you question immigration or islam.
Pho-k that “inner circle.”
I don’t see anything in this that disparages anyone’s job performance or suggests anyone’s job is in jeopardy.
Trump knows that it is indeed state and local responsibility to handle their own turf and to protect government property.
Where did you read “retreat” in that? I see “Don’t expect the left to do the job, bring in our own to make facilities secure.”
Please Please Please let there be something bigger coming and this is a distraction. Letting them feel like they are winning.
Did this not just have to do with LE action on property defense? That’s how I read it. Not specific as to immigration action.
If Noem and Gabbard are forced to resign, I will no longer support President Trump or any MAGA candidate. They cannot protect my family if they cannot protect their own. My God, even the scuzbag democrats protect their own. MAGA needs to grow a F&%king spine.
Well, then.
The flying monkey brigade will go directly after Federal property after being told by their handlers to step down.
The Overlords have zero control at this point over them or their progressive siblings in the Congress or State Government.
This younger generation is a wild card variety of useful idiots that have mutated off plan.
Every single incident from the release of these games rules on, will be also on the heads of the Overlords, funding it.
Flush everything into the sunlight and jail them all. All the laws in the books are immutable and fiercely defended.
I call this, Baby Brother Ugly.
FAFO, suckers.
