    And here I was fuming for the last four years over the fact that Trump did not drain the swamp his first term. I guess some just want the corruption to continue forever. In a way it is a form of Stockholm Syndrome.


    I cannot describe the amazing feeling of relief that the draining has begun in earnest.

    Burn it all down! Sort it out after the fires die down.
    Show the world how it is done so other countries can follow suit, which they will.
    It's got a November 1989 feel about it.

    When the Soviet Union collapsed and the Berlin wall went down.

    Not only Politico, also the BBC (as if I needed another reason to dislike them).

    @charliekirk11
    So let me get this straight…

    USAID has been spending millions of taxpayer dollars every year funding not only the BBC, but also Politico?

    Pam Bondi freezes funding for sanctuary cities after swearing in as AG




    Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday ordered a freeze on federal funding to sanctuary cities after being sworn in to office the same day.

    While on campaign, President Donald Trump had vowed to pull funding from cities that refused to cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Since taking office, he has pursued deportation efforts across the nation, including in sanctuary cities such as Chicago.

    Bondi's funding freeze came amid a series of day one orders for the new attorney general, which also included a directive to clamp down on political weaponization within the agency, Fox News reported.

    "Thank you, President Trump. I've known you for many, many years, and I will not let you down," she said at her swearing in. "I am truly honored, honored that you have asked me to take on this role, and I will make you proud, and I will make this country proud."

    I was just going to make a post about this saying the same thing.

    Trump is doing what he does best, trolling.....and it's obviously working effectively. Many are losing their minds over this!

    He obviously wants Jordan and Egypt (and anyone else who is willing) to step up to the plate and help those people in Gaza.

    Yes, here it is, along with the mRNA push, the spectre of a Trump hotel and resort in Gaza were my two biggest ‘eh what?”s. This would likely unite the entire Arab world and most of rest of the world against the US, though, noticeably, our puppet Government in UK have not, as yet, addressed what seems to be the plan of a simpleton. While we’re all cheering on the exposure of government fraud and saving billions per day of taxpayer money, other dastardly plans are getting thrown into the mix and it’s just not so easy to relax!

    Things are happening so fast it almost appears that reality has become completely unstable.

    One can take a short nap and wake up to a whole new reality and news cycle....I don't remember ever things changing and happening so fast.

    Each new reality is exciting and disturbing at the same time.

    This POS has opening been calling for violence in the streets of the USA and the murder of Trump for months and is ramping it up more now. He’s trying to save his sorry ass, and the sorry asses of his fellow traitors and his crony handlers, from prison or worse.

    "Sleepwalking into Tyranny: How Power is Silently Being Seized" -- by Constitutionists John and Nisha Whitehead

    https://www.rutherford.org/publicati...y_being_seized

    In the rapid-fire changes that I see happening, I am asking myself what parts of all this are pursuant to the US Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land?

    What happened to the separation of powers doctrine embodied in the US Constitution? Haven't executive orders been used far too long to legislate?

    Where is Elon Musk's Oath of Office required by Article VI of the US Constitution, to wit: "The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."

    Where does the US Constitution state that it is the duty of the President and US government to promote AI "vaccinations" for cancer?

    Where does the US Constitution state that the President has the power to override the First Amendment Rights to disagree with the actions of other countries such as Israel to take the land and murder people of another country?

    With all the Trump speeches I've listened to I've never once heard him say that he was going to restore the Constitution.

    Why does Trump continue to brag about his implementation of Operation War Speed that killed untold numbers of Americans?

    I not only question authority, I question everything.

    Several of these demonic psychopath democrats are blatantly and openly inciting violence, and even calling for war on the streets.

    They need to be arrested, inciting violence is a crime, inciting people to overthrow the elected government is sedition, which is a very serious crime.

    Why do these scumbags continue to get away with this illegal behavior???? Yet they all go home every evening to their mansions with big smiles on their faces.

    It's only a matter of time before several people are injured or killed and cities are burning again.

    Dear Friends, relax — this is not gonna happen.
    I was just going to make a post about this saying the same thing.

    Trump is doing what he does best, trolling.....and it's obviously working effectively. Many are losing their minds over this!

    He obviously wants Jordan and Egypt (and anyone else who is willing) to step up to the plate and help those people in Gaza.


    Yep. He's just sort of peacocking on the world stage to create leverage and bargaining chips.

    I actually had to talk down the security guard at my job tonight; he really thinks Trump is going to invade Canada!

    The last decade has been like one big worldwide sociopolitical reality show, with Trump as the main star. We've all been exposed to him non-stop, 24 hrs a day. And it surprises me that some people really don't understand him by now. Or they do and pretend they don't. He's a dyed in the wool hyperbolist. It's pretty obvious by now when he's talking out of his ass and when he isn't. And it's pretty obvious why he's doing it in most cases. Yet quite a few seem to be missing the plot. And it's kind of amusing to watch them lose their sh!t over it!

    Dan Bongino, who understands Trump better than most of us, explained exactly why Bill is right, and what Trump was about when he made that proposal to have the U.S. occupy and evacuate the Gaza Strip that sounded outrageous to most of us.

    See the opening minutes (starts at the 5:20 mark) of his Weds, Feb 5, 2025 show:

    Things are happening so fast it almost appears that reality has become completely unstable.

    One can take a short nap and wake up to a whole new reality and news cycle....I don't remember ever things changing and happening so fast.

    Each new reality is exciting and disturbing at the same time.
    Made me laugh. Yes, my own stance right now on everything in the current fast-forward news cycle is that I'm stepping back to wait and see what actually happens, rhetoric notwithstanding. (Trump has always been strong on rhetoric, let's never forget.) I strongly suspect the Russians and Chinese are taking exactly the same position of just watching carefully and waiting.

    And a lot is currently happening, but there's also a great deal of 'noise', not only from Trump but from everyone around — including many in the alt media who are reacting to everything as fast as they can.

    Great post ........... and so true -


    I saw something yesterday in a video and the person was saying that Trump doesn't, in reality, have 4 years - he has around 16 months... to get the job done - because who can predict what might happen in the midterm elections...either through voter ignorance or cheating -

    So he has hit the road running and knows he has to get a massive amount done in a relatively short time - while Biden was wondering around in a daze thinking about his next ice~cream Trump was plotting and planning ... :-) ... team building...
