UPDATE: Terrific speech, right on the money. If Vance can keep this up and follow through with decisive action, I will be impressed. He’s an excellent rhetorician but in politics words only mean so much. Let’s see what happens. We have to closely watch every potential MAGA candidate who might take over after Trump. Vance is high on the list. He appears to not be another Mike Pence. Speaking of traitors, at least some of the main actors who threw open our border under Biden and lied about it need to be held accountable. Some of their crimes were as serious as they get. You were in charge of protecting but did the opposite and used citizens tax money to pay for your perfidy. Basically, you acted like a general in a foreign army at war with USA. ABN
This is an example of why freedom of speech is our most important and most foundational right; unalienable and not to be taken from us by anyone ever. Blanchard handles himself very well; he is cordial, straightforward, and does not back down. This is how we break through the mind-control. ABN
About 75,000 federal workers have abandoned ship and decided to accept President Trump’s deferred buyout after a federal judge lifted a temporary freeze on the offer.
The buyout was just one of many approaches Trump and Elon Musk‘s Department of Government Efficiency have taken to dismantle bloated bureaucracies and slash a civilian workforce of 2.3 million.
Officials have been told that some agencies can see up to 70% of their staff cut.
The deferred buyout program promised employees their salaries and benefits until October if they leave immediately.
A union which represents hundreds of thousands of federal workers sued last week to stop the deal. But a Massachusetts judge ruled the unions lack standing to challenge the directive.
He also warned federal agencies to prepare for wide-ranging job cuts, and several departments have begun to lay off recent hires who lack full job security.
Conservatives despise Big Government because control is always seized by bad actors who then cook the books, steal, and cheat wherever they can. What’s worse is as their power grows, they become more and more oppressive and violent. Consider the persecution of J6 attendees, Biden admin disregard for human trafficking and fentanyl at the border, their manifest willingness to cheat in elections. History proves the left is always more dangerous than the right, which at worst is typically a reaction to an over-the-top leftist regime or threat. ABN
Attorney General Pam Bondi warned sanctuary cities they ‘are going to be next’ if local officials continue to harbor and protect illegal aliens over the safety of citizens.
Speaking with Fox News‘ Sean Hannity, Bondi, 59, shared how under her leadership the Justice Department sued the city of Chicago and its mayor Brandon Johnson earlier in the day over its progressive sanctuary policies.
‘Not only did we sue today the city of Chicago, we sued the state of Illinois, we sued the mayor, we sued the governor, and we sued others,’ she said.
The Department of Justice also put a pause on all federal funding to sanctuary states and cities and nonprofits, according to a memo Bondi sent out Thursday.
When asked about whether the sanctuary city and states were aiding and abetting the illegal migrants, the AG didn’t pass up a moment to make the new Trump directives crystal clear.
‘What they’re doing is they are choosing illegal aliens over the safety and security of their own citizens and the men and women of law enforcement who are out there trying to protect their citizens,’ Bondi responded.
‘And let me be very clear, if you don’t comply with federal law, you’re going to be next,’ Bondi proclaimed, putting those who harbor the migrants on notice.
They are flipping out because the gravy train of illegals is stopping. The more illegals they bring in with taxpayer money, the more money the federal government has been giving them. It’s a big circular gravy train from which many apparently can offload as much cash as they like. Chelsea Clinton reportedly scored $84m when the train last passed her house. Her husband, btw, is George Soros’ nephew, so neither of them needs that money nor will they put it to good use. We are ruled by large groups. Trump is in a different group from them. The groups are fighting. Trump is winning right now. Trump and his group are better; they seem to like ordinary Americans and have decent consideration for our needs. That’s why I support them. Do not expect to ever see some fantasy Ben Franklin USA. That’s never gonna happen. But with AI and the creative energy of Trump’s group we might see a really good version of USA become established well enough to endure for a long time. Not everybody at the top is a greedy asshole. Right now, we are living in the most positive and dynamic time in American history. ABN
In an astounding display of renewed vigor and patriotism, the U.S. Army has shattered its recruiting goals, marking the most successful enlistment numbers in over a decade.
Under the decisive “America First” leadership of President Donald Trump, America’s youth are once again eager to serve, drawing a stark contrast to the dismal figures seen under the Biden regime.
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth highlighted the significance of this achievement in a statement to X, revealing that December 2024 saw the best recruiting numbers in 12 years, with January 2025 setting a record not seen in the last 15 years.
“In December 2024, the US Army had its best recruiting number in 12 years. In January 2025, the Army hit its best recruiting number in 15 YEARS. BOTTOM LINE: America’s youth want to serve under the bold & strong “America First” leadership of Donald Trump,” Hegseth wrote.
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.”
On Friday, February 7, 2025, at 11:59 pm (EST) all USAID direct hire personnel will be placed on administrative leave globally, with the exception of designated personnel responsible for mission-critical functions, core leadership and specially designated programs. Essential personnel expected to continue working will be informed by Agency leadership by Thursday, February 6, at 3:00pm (EST).
For USAID personnel currently posted outside the United States, the Agency, in coordination with missions and the Department of State, is currently preparing a plan, in accordance with all applicable requirements and laws, under which the Agency would arrange and pay for return travel to the United States within 30 days and provide for the termination of PSC and ISC contracts that are not determined to be essential. The Agency will consider case-by-case exceptions and return travel extensions based on personal or family hardship, mobility or safety concerns, or other reasons. For example, the Agency will consider exceptions based on the timing of dependents’ school term, personal or familial medical needs, pregnancy, and other reasons. Further guidance on how to request an exception will be forthcoming.
Since President Donald Trump’s inauguration on Jan. 20, illegal alien encounters at the southern US border have plummeted an average of 94% during his first 9 days, compared to President Biden’s last 19 days in office.
During Trump’s first 9 days in office, after new border measures were implemented, there were an average of 126 daily encounters at the border vs. 2,087 per day during the last 2.5 weeks of the Biden administration.
This is what most of us voted for. USA needs a deep and serious house cleaning. This is the only way it can happen. The right only gets tough when the left has gone waaaay too far. Check the video of Polish troops on the Polish-Belarus border posted below. They get tough because the left won’t stop. This is the history of most of the left-right division throughout the world. The FBI went rogue years ago. This is the corrective. My only concern is will it be deep enough? ABN
This is wonderful and I hope and believe we will see much more of this all across USA. Those fucking lefty bitches in government who were paying (graft) for this are parasites spreading their mind-virus parasite disease with taxpayer money. I love seeing this garbage shut down. When our own government undermines our country in this way, they massively damage the free exercise of honest speech, honest behavior, honest policy. They are destroying all the good things we used to have in this country to replace them with corruption. ABN
President Donald Trump’s Wednesday executive order combating radical gender ideology and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) education in public schools could prove disastrous for Maine’s far-left school districts, which could risk losing part of their funding.
“Parents trust America’s schools to provide their children with a rigorous education and to instill a patriotic admiration for our incredible Nation and the values for which we stand,” said President Trump.
“In recent years, however, parents have witnessed schools indoctrinate their children in radical, anti-American ideologies while deliberately blocking parental oversight,” he added.
Trump’s order takes aim at radical gender ideology, which says a person can be born into the wrong body and encourages children to undergo irreversible chemical or surgical procedures to make them appear more like the opposite sex.
