  1. “Listen we’re not asking for anything crazy by suspending the writ of habeas corpus to deport illegals

    All we want is the same deportation protocols used on Martha’s Vineyard

    When a few dozen illegals landed on the island, they mobilized the national guard and deported them without trial in 48 hours

    Why can’t the rest of America be protected like that?”

  2. “Secretary Bessent announces that President Trump will allow companies who move their manufacturing BACK HOME will have their factory costs FULLY EXPENSED!

    “The other thing that we are looking to add is full expensing for factories. So bring your factory back!”

    “You can fully expense the equipment AND the building!”

    “We will couple that with deregulation, cheap energy and regulatory certainty!”

    “That will continue to make the U.S. the GREATEST destination for domestic and foreign investment.”

  3. “Walmart announces they’ll be EXPANDING support for American-made products, per Axios

    THIS IS THE WAY! 🇺🇸

    Meanwhile, Amazon is doubling down on sleeping with China.

    Walmart says their goal is to make it “easier for U.S.-based entrepreneurs to navigate the complexities of retail and bring their products to a national stage.”

    “We anticipate thousands of small businesses will take advantage of these free resources over the coming years,” John Furner, Walmart U.S. president and CEO, told Axios.”

  4. If we had a real, legitimate media, this would be a huge story. It’s a further indictment of them.

    “The Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) is an identification code linking a Treasury payment to a budget line item (standard financial process).

    In the Federal Government, the TAS field was optional for ~$4.7 Trillion in payments and was often left blank, making traceability almost impossible. As of Saturday, this is now a required field, increasing insight into where money is actually going. Thanks to @USTreasury for the great work. “

    “So let me get this straight, our government was handing out trillions with fewer checks than a Chuck E. Cheese arcade, and we’re just now fixing that? How is this not the biggest story in the country?”

  5. “Turns out the abortion pill isn’t just dangerous – it’s 22 TIMES more dangerous than the FDA admitted

    We’re now learning 1 in 9 women suffer serious complications like sepsis, hemorrhage, and emergency surgeries

    Biden’s FDA turned a blind eye to these harms, so I hope President Trump restores FDA safeguards and accountability

    If other Big Pharma drugs caused life-threatening complications in 10% of patients, they would be pulled in a heartbeat

    But when it comes to the abortion pill?

    Silence

    “The FDA must be forced to tell the truth and put women’s safety above politics

  6. “Last week, Treasury went live with its first automated payment verification system. In total, $334 million in improper payment requests were identified and rejected due to:

    -Missing budget codes

    -Invalid budget codes (i.e. the payment was not linked to the budget)

    -Budget codes with no authorization (i.e. the budget had already been fully spent)”

  7. Liberal Canadians elected a far left nut job. They continue to elect idiocy, and think things will change.

    Blaming Trump is the coward’s play, when their own poor voting is causing their misery.

    Same for Democrats.

  8. Closing line @12:47 and the warning it carries of what is perhaps to come is all too true, I fear:

    “Did you know that the Biden admin purposely didn’t put illegals into ICE detention centers and instead flew them around the country and dropped them off in various cities and hotels, because then they wouldn’t have a court hearing and would be able to stay in our country for years??

    “This is about selling this country out for future political power.”

    Democrats committed TREASON”

  10. Truth.

    Plus, it might cut into the millions he donates to Dems and Dem causes.

    So double bonus.

    “Amazon’s sudden interest in showing tariffs is hilarious in light of its refusal to show country of origin. Probably because Amazon doesn’t want anybody to know most of what it sells is Chinese crap manufactured in CCP slave factories and based off of stolen American intellectual property.”

  11. Livin’ rent free in their heads. 🤪

    TDS is a mental illness, and it’s contagious. Deadly even, if you have certain co-morbities, like liberalism, lack of common sense or self preservation, and general stupidity.

  12. This amuses me, but it confounds me as well. It’s stupid, and I think, how could they be so disconnected to what’s best for kin and country?

    Yet they say damn the world, I hate that guy, so I’m voting against all of our self interests. It boggles the mind.

    What a horrible life to live.

  13. A disturbing thread on shenanigans Rubio has uncovered at the State Dept. where censorship was the goal.

    https://x.com/karlmehta/status/1917203884789075997?t=VKYSmtZnr1SViXFtiquNJg&s=19

    “Here’s how the censorship machine worked:The State Department funded supposedly “impartial” NGOs with taxpayer money.

    These third-party groups then tagged American commentators and media outlets as “foreign agents.”

    But that was just the beginning…”

    “The consequences were real and devastating.

    These weren’t just labels – they led to Americans getting deplatformed and silenced online.

    High-profile targets included Ben Shapiro and The Federalist.

    But countless everyday citizens were also caught in the dragnet.”

  14. Don’t know who linked the Rod Drehr substack but it’s one of the best and meatiest articles I’ve read in a long time. I want to listen to the podcast he links also–maybe after work or this weekend. These things are not quick news flashes but in depth issues to ponder and discuss.

  15. Yes, M did it. I’ve been following him fora time on Substack.

    I picked up the Soviet history book he referenced and read just a few sections. It’s all first hand stories of people who lived under the Soviet regimes.

    I already know those stories from visits behind the Iron Curtain 15 years ago.

  16. Good!

    DENVER (KDVR) — Denver’s budget director told city council members Monday that the Trump administration is terminating three multi-million-dollar grants awarded in 2023 and 2024 that were promised for migrant sheltering services.

    Want to spit in the face if Americans? You don’t get our money. Sanctuary city/state? Now they are stealing Coloradans tax refunds in the name of fees. And of course these poor illegals are spreading out of Denver and trafficking and crime runs rampant in our area. 😡

    Those running this state are beyond insane. Call your kid by the wrong name misgendering them? We will take them away from you. Want to own a gun? We will tell you which ones and you will have to pay thousands … and we may still deny you. Want an abortion up until the date of birth or perhaps even after? No problem… we champion women’s rights to their own bodies. Heck we will have our tax payers pay for if too!

    Is it any wonder Coloradans are looking to move from here. A bit of research will show many of these legislators are from CA…. Like our Governor 😡
