Unraveling the deep state: Here are the most egregious things USAID was doing with your money | Blaze Media: 

Billions wasted on pet projects — from ESG initiatives to 'inclusion' programs.

Over the past several decades, billions of hard-earned American taxpayer dollars have been funneled into left-wing initiatives around the globe through the United States Agency for International Development.

Established in 1961, the agency was intended to administer foreign aid and assistance to developing nations, but it has since apparently become an unscrutinized black hole of waste, fraud, and abuse.

Doctor Says Democrats Suffering 'Real Crisis' After Trump's Win: Depression, Insomnia, Grief, ‘Genuine Fear, Panic’

“We are dealing with depression, anxiety, all kinds of medical problems that are related to that, like insomnia, chest pain, chest pressure

And then..there’s some genuine fear, panic.” - Wendell Husebo
Opponents of President Donald Trump are suffering severe health issues after his November victory...
Burnett said he advises his patients to turn off computers and televisions to restore their mental health.

• Burnett, who spoke with journalist Mark Halprin Thursday night, disclosed many of his Democrat patients are experiencing a number of severe mental health issues due to former Vice President Kamala Harris being defeated.

“We are dealing with depression, anxiety, all kinds of medical problems that are related to that, like insomnia, chest pain, chest pressure,” he told Halprin...

Are there unofficial sanctuary cities period what is the benefit to the town?

Muskegon County sheriff clearly doesn't want you to know.

Muskegon City unclear also.

Is City of muskegon michigan is a sanctuary city?

ChatGPT said:

The City of Muskegon, Michigan, has not officially declared itself a sanctuary city. However, Muskegon County, where the city is located, has been identified by the Center for Immigration Studies as having adopted policies that limit cooperation with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

cis.org

This designation suggests that the county, and by extension the city, may function similarly to sanctuary jurisdictions by not fully cooperating with federal immigration enforcement.

It's important to note that the Michigan House of Representatives recently voted to restrict state funding for local governments that do not fully comply with immigration enforcement.

wmuk.org

This legislative action indicates ongoing debates and potential changes in policies related to sanctuary jurisdictions within the state.

Therefore, while the City of Muskegon has not officially declared sanctuary status, the policies of Muskegon County may align with sanctuary practices. Residents should stay informed about local and state legislative developments, as these policies can evolve over time.

Watch: Trump Makes Huge US Steel Announcement, Moment Recalls Workers Flooding Stage to Thank Him

Watch: Trump Makes Huge US Steel Announcement, Moment Recalls Workers Flooding Stage to Thank Him: 

President Donald Trump announced Friday that Japan’s Nippon Steel plans to make a large investment in U.S. Steel but will not purchase the company.

Appearing at a joint news conference with Prime Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, Trump said that Nippon “is going to be doing something very exciting about U.S. Steel. They’ll be looking at an investment rather than a purchase. U.S. Steel is a very important company to us.”

“I’ll be there to mediate and arbitrate,” the president added, noting representatives of the two companies are slated to meet next week and work toward a deal.

Trump Draining Pool Of Money From Which Leftist Activists Drink

That’s why they are apoplectic. 

That’s why they are losing their minds, because they know if Trump is successful in cutting off the various spigots that fill the pool, they are in big trouble. - William A. Jacobson 

But nothing infuriated them so much as Trump’s attempt to scale back USAID...

Yeah, I think people need to understand what Trump is doing, whether it’s intentional or not, but he is cutting off the flow of money to the pool from which a variety of left-wing groups and activist groups around the world and in the US drink...

• This has the potential to be absolutely devastating to the DEI and left-wing industrial complex.

We always think of it as being George Soros and people like that, and, and it is, but they all are feeding into the same pool. 

 And Soros doesn’t have enough money to replace what the US government spends on this stuff.
That’s why they are apoplectic...

Incompetent vs. crooked: DC's rotten system revealed by Musk

But despite all the hoopla, what’s actually going on is straightforward stuff that most people probably — but wrongly — assumed the government was doing all along. - Glenn H. Reynolds 

DC wastes how much of budget?
Musk wrote on X Saturday that DOGE and the Treasury Department have agreed to take the following steps:

• All outgoing payments must have a categorization code in order to be paid. That’s supposed to already happen, but Musk has found the code is often left blank, making audits nearly impossible...
• Musk went on to express disbelief that more than $100 billion worth of entitlements every year are going to “individuals with no SSN or even a temporary ID number. If accurate, this is extremely suspicious.”...

Yes, the government is big. 

And of course when you’re writing lots of checks, there will be some errors.
But the system should be designed to minimize mistakes and catch them when they happen, not to make them easy and undetectable.

• Generally, when auditors find that an organization’s accounting system makes errors easy to commit and difficult to spot, they assume the system is designed that way because it is intended to facilitate fraud.
• Maybe that’s not true here. Maybe the federal government is simply incompetent.

If that’s the case, though, then maybe it shouldn’t get so much of our money...

L.A. Mayor Bass Hires Illinois Consulting Firm Led by Far-Left Politician

L.A. Mayor Bass Hires Illinois Consulting Firm Led by Far-Left Politician: 

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) has brought in an Illinois consulting firm headed by a far-left politician who took part in a George Soros-funded mayors’ program, appointed his city’s first chief equity officer, and signed a resolution to recognize that his city’s land was stolen from Native Americans by “white colonizers” to help the post-fire recovery process.

My bulletproof arguments that the COVID vaccines had NO benefit

See if you can find a hole. - Steve Kirsch

• In a nutshell, both R0 and IFR increased. 
• The most dispositive data sources show this unambiguously. These are the two factors the shots were supposed to reduce.

Most importantly, nobody has been able to explain away the evidence I’ll show you below...
Here’s the data from the US nursing homes for your viewing pleasure.
I include a list of the 9 positive and negative control conditions that this data meets that confirm the accuracy of the data (the “Pos neg controls” sheet). 

There is no better data source for what happened to the elderly in the US after the vaccines rolled out...

See the spike in the IFR right after vaccine rollout? 

See how the slope trends UP pre-omicron and post omicron? 

• That’s the boosters. 
• IFR, is normally supposed to go down or flatline over time...

Elon Musk@elonmusk Yeah, I can’t emphasize this enough!

The goal of auditing the Social Security Administration is to stop the extreme levels of fraud taking place, - Clarice Feldman

• Elon Musk@elonmusk - Yeah, I can’t emphasize this enough! The goal of auditing the Social Security Administration is to stop the extreme levels of fraud taking place, so that it remains solvent and protects the social security checks of honest Americans! That’s it. That’s the goal. End of story.

• Mike Lee@BasedMikeLee - On no planet does @DOGE want to take away anyone’s Social Security check. And on no planet is violence warranted by what @DOGE is actually trying to do—stop waste, fraud, and abuse in government. Dr. Steve Caudle’s call for violence is indefensible x.com/charliekirk11/…

Trump Still Drives Dems Crazy

Donald Trump has been back in the White House for three weeks, but to Democrats, it must feel like three years. - Who the Heck Is Jim Treacher - Jim Treacher 

They thought they were done with him. 

• They lied to themselves about Joe’s dementia and Kamala’s electability (or lack thereof), because the alternative was even worse. 

They had four long years to prepare themselves for this probability, and yet they’re not ready.

#1 This day 1982-----The J. Geils Band - Centerfold (Official Music Video)

Bennet and Hickenlooper are in cahoots to turn "Sensitive Places" into harbors for criminal illegal immigrants.

If passed, the law would prevent ICE from carrying out their orders whenever a foreign criminal enters a church, school, hospital, courthouse and a host of other places.  - Patricia Anthone 

I've linked the bill in the comment section below.
The designation of any place as a "no-go" zone into which which TdA or MS13 gang members, cartel operatives or other foreign thugs are PURPOSELY directed to escape law enforcement obviously compromises the lives and safety of the CITIZENS using those spaces.
* Does anyone think its a great idea to designate our children's schools as a harbor for criminal aliens?
* Imagine worship service being infringed by foreign drug-cartel members' intrusion to escape law enforcement.
* How absurd it is to prohibit the safe, controlled apprehension of a foreign criminal in the course of his court appearance!

• But the final insult is included on line 13 of page 17:
• POLLING PLACES are among those specifically named among the sensitive locations at which FOREIGN CRIMINALS enjoy immunity from ICE enforcement. 

Now, why do you suppose POLLING PLACES were included?
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this one out.

The best reason to hate international aid

It's not just that so much of it is wasted on the bizarre priorities of woke federal bureaucrats; it's that it creates the worst possible dependency in the recipients, and that problem is unfixable. - Alex Berenson
You may have heard of what economists call the “resource curse.” 

• If you haven’t: the resource curse is a paradoxical problem for poor countries that are rich in minerals or oil. 

Despite their seeming bounty, those countries often wind up behind their neighbors and beset with political strife.
Why?

• The quickest way for smart or powerful people in asset-rich countries to get rich is by getting their share. 
• As leaders or bureaucrats, they can do so by demanding bribes from the companies extracting the oil or gold...

Audit them ALL!
