Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

DNI Tulsi Gabbard Discusses Blurred Line Between Liberty and Security

While I do not expect Mrs. Gabbard to be a heroine in defense of liberty, perhaps she will pause government weaponization and privacy destruction for a few years.   In this interview, Gabbard does seem to understand the issues about Big Govt using ‘national security’ as a justification for the elimination of all privacy protection.

Whether she can do anything about it, right before privacy elimination is scheduled to get a lot worse, is an unknown variable. WATCH:

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick Swearing-in Ceremony and President Trump Presser

Moments ago, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick took the oath of office in the Oval Office as delivered by Vice-President JD Vance.

Secretary Lutnick is going to be a very key component in the MAGAnomic agenda, likely second only to President Trump. Just as Wilbur Ross was key to unlocking the economy in President Trump’s first term, so too is Secretary Lutnick going to play a pivotal role.

Long before President Trump won the election, Howard Lutnick was one of the few people who really understood the construct of MAGAnomics, how economic nationalism was crucial, and how the strategic use of tariffs creates massive GDP growth. The swearing-in ceremony is very uplifting, and both President Trump and Secretary Lutnick are very positive about the future.

At 11:38 of the video below, President Trump holds an impromptu press conference. WATCH:

Earlier today President Trump confronted Maine Governor Janet Mills for undermining women and keeping men in women’s sports.

Heated exchange between President Trump and Gov. Janet Mills (D-ME) over executive order banning transgender women in sports.

Trump: “Are you not going to comply with that?”

Mills: “I’m complying with state and federal laws.”

Trump: “We are the federal law. You better do it, because you’re not going to get any federal funding at all if you don’t…your population doesn’t want men playing in women’s sports…”

Mills: “See you in court.”

Trump: “Good. I’ll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be an easy one. And enjoy your life after governor, because I don’t think you’ll be in elected politics.”
