President Trump Says During Shutdown “A Lot of Federal Employees Will Be Laid Off”

According to the internal memoranda [SEE HERE], OMB Director Russ Vought is planning for a large-scale reduction in force (RIF), with many of the federal employees released being terminated permanently.

The Democrat triggered “govt shut down” plays nicely into the plans of President Trump and OMB Director Vought.  Democrats hope they have a politically advantageous position to take in shutting down the government; however, the position of Trump and Vought is to downsize government.  The shutdown expedites the downsizing.

President Trump was asked about the scope impact to federal employees, during a brief impromptu press availability, as he departs the White House going to Quantico.  WATCH:

Sunday Talks – Speaker Mike Johnson Discusses Likelihood of Government Shutdown

If the current status is maintained the “non-essential” part of govt will shut down on October 1st.  There is no incentive for the White House to avoid a partial shutdown when OMB Director Russ Vought can then determine what functions of government are defined as essential and non-essential.

Director Vought has told various agencies to prepare for permanent reductions in force if the government shuts down. [READ MEMO HERE] Speaker Mike Johnson outlines some of the specific flaws in the argument of the Democrats on the shutdown issue. WATCH:

President Trump Calls Out FBI for Placing 274 Agents in J6 Crowd – Demands to Know Who They Were?

President Trump calls attention to recent FBI admissions that around 250 FBI agents were placed in the crowd during January 6, 2021, protests. The purpose and premise of the FBI operation remains sketchy.

Story HereReleased FBI Files Here

TRUTH SOCIAL – “It was just revealed that the FBI had secretly placed, against all Rules, Regulations, Protocols, and Standards, 274 FBI Agents into the Crowd just prior to, and during, the January 6th Hoax. This is different from what Director Christopher Wray stated, over and over again! That’s right, as it now turns out, FBI Agents were at, and in, the January 6th Protest, probably acting as Agitators and Insurrectionists, but certainly not as “Law Enforcement Officials.”

I want to know who each and every one of these so-called “Agents” are, and what they were up to on that now “Historic” Day. Many Great American Patriots were made to pay a very big price only for the love of their Country. I owe this investigation of “Dirty Cops and Crooked Politicians” to them! Christopher Wray, the then Director of the FBI, has some major explaining to do. That’s two in a row, Comey and Wray, who got caught LYING, with our Great Country at stake. WE CAN NEVER LET THIS HAPPEN TO AMERICA AGAIN!”

ABC Allows Jimmy Kimmel Back on Air Tonight – Nexstar and Sinclair Media Will Not Broadcast

Jimmy Kimmel is going back on air, but not every station will carry it.

Disney Corp who owns ABC released the following statement: “Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” ABC parent The Walt Disney Company said in a statement Monday. It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive.  We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”

Both Nexstar Media and Sinclair Media are refusing to permit the ABC affiliate broadcast of the Jimmy Kimmel show.

Nexstar saying: “We made a decision last week to preempt “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” following what ABC referred to as Mr. Kimmel’s “ill-timed and insensitive” comments at a critical time in our national discourse. We stand by that decision pending assurance that all parties are committed to fostering an environment of respectful, constructive dialogue in the markets we serve. In the meantime, we note that “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” will be available nationwide on multiple Disney-owned streaming products, while our stations will focus on continuing to produce local news and other programming relevant to their respective markets.”

Sinclair saying: “Beginning Tuesday night, Sinclair will be preempting ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ across our ABC affiliate stations and replacing it with news programming. Discussions with ABC are ongoing as we evaluate the show’s potential return,” Sinclair said in a statement.

Sinclair and Nexstar represent about 60 ABC affiliates, approximately one-third of the broadcast audience.

Notes of Caution – The Story of Telemachus

The Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement has gained in ranks mostly due to the pragmatic messenger who cuts through party lines, Donald Trump; but also, because the political left went too far into the world of social crazy.

For several years, traditional moderates and Democrats have been turning away from the messaging of the leftist party now controlled by radical Marxists and publicly declared socialists. Almost everything they created as a point of advocacy made their following spiral into an ever-diminishing circle.

Democrats are the party of censorship, gleefully cheering as conservative voices were deplatformed, demonetized, targeted by the social media system operators who controlled the public square, targeted by an aligned government and mainstream media, and evidenced in their full-throated demands around the COVID-19 madness and vaccine protocols.

Democrats cheered as government collaborated with tech donors to diminish their opposition, while simultaneously they affirmed some of the evilest enterprises around DEI, toxic advocacy for transgender and LGBTQ+ ideology, the mutilation of children and far worse.  Socially their policies became increasingly toxic and ridiculous.

As they descended this spiral, Democrats became increasingly dangerous – visibly so – and the outcome of their advocacy was not in alignment with anything resembling ‘domestic tranquility’. None of this is questioned by serious people who have watched the last 18 years unfold.  The leftist ideology is abusive in the extreme.

As the left pushed further and further into their created system of social madness, violence and evil enterprise, they lost support and MAGA Republicans were beneficiaries.

Despite our lack of control over the power centers, the MAGA tent expanded as the party of the individual not the collective; the party of freedom, free speech and, well, functionally common sense.  The toxic abusers held power, but culturally they were losing control.  MAGA represented the rebellion, and the rebel ranks gained even while, and perhaps because, we were being abused.

Then a 22-year-old radical leftist, fully indoctrinated within the 18-years of social Marxist advancement, shot the Christian representation of the MAGA rebellion, Charlie Kirk, in the neck – killing him in front of millions.

Congressional Black Caucus Reject Resolution Honoring Charlie Kirk

A House resolution [HR.719 – HERE] was offered today recognizing the tragic murder of Charlie Kirk and honoring his legacy. Forty-two members of the Congressional Black Caucus voted against the resolution [Roll Call Here], 4 CBC members voted present, 4 CBC members didn’t vote, once again affirming their intent to divide the country based on race.

WASHINGTON – […] In a statement following the House’s approval of the resolution, which received support from more than 90 Democrats, the caucus denounced political violence and the killing of Kirk, but said individuals must condemn violence “without abandoning our right to speak out against ideas that are inconsistent with our values as Americans.”

[…] The caucus outlined some of Kirk’s past comments that they said they “strongly” disagreed with, listing “his belief that the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which ended racial segregation, was a mistake; his denial that systemic racism exists; his promotion of the Great Replacement theory; and his offensive claims about Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Michelle Obama, and Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee lacking adequate cognitive ability.”

After Backlash Disney/ABC Suspend Jimmy Kimmel for Toxic Comments Following Charlie Kirk Murder

The demonic voices exist within an echo chamber.  When you drive away moral audience members, you end up with a group who spiral out of control.  Connection to goodness, morality and decency is lost.

Thus, ABC host Jimmy Kimmel delivered a toxic monologue on Monday evening where he ridiculed President Trump in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s death and blamed the shooting motive on the MAGA mindset.  Backlash followed as the segment was shared with a wider audience who were reminded of the hate espoused by leftist cultural leadership.

Nexstar Media Group, which holds an FCC license and operates 2oo partnered broadcast ABC stations, announced they would not broadcast Jimmy Kimmel Live.  Soon thereafter Sinclair Media Group, another FCC licensee, announced they were also not going to broadcast the Jimmy Kimmel Live television show.

As the backlash mounted from affiliate television stations, eventually Disney Corp who owns ABC announced they were suspending Jimmy Kimmel effective immediately.

WASHINGTON – Disney said Wednesday it would indefinitely suspend comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show following the host’s comments on the fatal shooting of conservative organizer Charlie Kirk.
