Switzerland Announces EMPHATIC Referendum Result

JOE LONSDALE: DOGE CAN’T BE STOPPED BECAUSE IT’S A VERY TECHNICAL TEAM

No one has done this ever. No president had ever had tech people around him...Patricia Anthone - Donald Trump For President
“I have mentors in the Reagan administration who came in looking for [government waste].
Those people were not technical.
  • When they went to the bureaucracy, and they asked questions, there are so many ways of obscuring and blocking and deterring.
  • Elon got root access, and he went to the tech systems themselves.
No one has done this ever.
No president had ever had tech people around him...

Read all!!-----Opinion: The Unusual Confirmation of RFK Jr. - Illinois Review

Opinion: The Unusual Confirmation of RFK Jr. - Illinois Review - John F Di Leo 
He was arguably the most controversial of the cabinet nominees in the second Trump administration, having spent his career as not just an anti-government gadfly, but specifically, as one who challenged the conventional wisdom in an area that – before the Covid-19 pandemic at least – was rarely challenged in mainstream debate: the medical sciences...
His positions seemed downright “fringe” decades ago, but in the wake of thirty years of fear-mongering about carbon dioxide, and now five years of lies about Covid-19 responses and protocols, this pattern of unconventional dissent seems well-founded, at least well worth debate, today.
  • RFK Jr. has come to represent, not an opposition to the sciences at all, of course, but rather, a belief that America needs to stop blindly trusting the respected elites on everything – in the medical arena, the pharmaceutical arena, and the bureaucratic arena. 
  • It is a belief that we should stop blindly funding them, blindly obeying them. 
  • It is a belief that we should start questioning them and their pronouncements a bit more than we used to.
Why?...

Pam Bondi announces lawsuits against New York over immigration: 'We're coming after you' | Blaze Media

"New York has chosen to prioritize illegal aliens over American citizens," she added. "It stops. It stops today." The Justice Dept. previously announced a lawsuit against Illinois and Chicago for similarly obstructing the enforcement of federal immigration law. "Millions of illegal aliens with violent records have flooded into our communities, bringing violence and deadly drugs with them," she added.

This is theft from America!-----EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin Finds the $20 Billion 'Gold Bars' the Biden Administration Tried to Jettison

Between DOGE, O'Keefe Media, and Project Veritas, the Deep State just keeps exposing how corrupt they are and where the bodies are buried. - Jennifer Oliver O'Connell
  • In a three-minute video, EPA administrator Lee Zeldin explained how they found those "gold bars" that the Biden EPA had tossed "off the Titanic" in the waning days of the administration when they were attempting to gum up the works for incoming President Donald Trump while still funneling money to their left-wing causes to avoid discovery.

The information was not only detailed but had lots of meat to chew on...

Why Democrats hate Hegseth - Don Surber

Democrats may have lost the military.  
  • In his first term, the four stars kept Trump from being the actual commander-in-chief blocking him with Milley, Mattis and Marx leading the way. 
  • Trump learned. This time he has Pete Hegseth running the show. Recruiting is up. Morale too...
Hegseth used his visit this week to Stuttgart to send a message to the troops.
The messaging began during the flight.
DOD said, “While flying aboard a C-17 from Joint Base Andrews to Stuttgart on February 10, 2025, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth signed a memorandum renaming Fort Liberty in North Carolina to Fort Bragg. The new name pays tribute to Pfc. Roland L. Bragg, a World War II hero who earned the Silver Star and Purple Heart for his exceptional courage during the Battle of the Bulge. This change underscores the installation's legacy of recognizing those who have demonstrated extraordinary service and sacrifice for the nation.”
  • We all know what he did. That is what makes it so enjoyable. PFC Bragg’s daughter couldn’t be happier. Her father trained at—dramatic pause—Fort Bragg.
  • But we also know what FJB and Lloyd Austin did in taking the name down. It was not about the original namesake being a Confederate general. The name change was designed to erase history and demote training for war to being second to DEI...

Loons funded by...YOU!-----Disabled, queer ‘Chicanx’ ethnic studies scholar: Trump EO on sex/gender is ‘fascism’

Referencing George Orwell’s “1984,” Castro-Gill said not permitting individuals to “define” themselves as they wish is “fascism.” - Dave Huber 
Tracy Castro-Gill told lawmakers that her identifying “markers” — disabled, queer, ‘Chicanx’ (which sounds like “Chicanese”) recently were made “illegal” in the federal government, but her “very presence and humanity” stand in “opposition to that legislation.”...
  • “Teachers historically have held the gap between humanity and fascism,” they (Castro-Gill uses “they/them” pronouns) said, and then teachers become the “primary targets” of that fascism.
  • What’s more, Castro-Gill noted the lawmakers had “heard from students” that educators “are often the people who foster student identity and development,” and because of this fact are being “targeted” and removed from positions.
  • Notice what was said as sort of cast-away conventional wisdom: that teachers are often “the people who foster student identity.” Maybe that’s the problem …??...

Incredible this hasn't been an ongoing policy in the past!-----Trump orders trade review ahead of potential tariffs | Supply Chain Dive

Federal agencies have until April 1 to give recommendations on trade pacts with Mexico, Canada and China. - Philip
  • Trump did not implement tariffs by executive order on Monday but did issue a memorandum ordering a review of U.S. trade policy. 
President Donald Trump issued a memorandum Monday directing federal agencies to evaluate U.S. trade policy, paving the way for potential new tariffs. 
Agencies have until April 1 to report their findings and provide recommendations...
  • Although the president did not sign executive orders to implement tariffs immediately, the memorandum indicates his administration is still planning to use the mechanism to advance its U.S. manufacturing and trade policy initiatives...


Unlike libs, we won't give him a "Biden-pass" unless he delivers.

Four reasons Super Bowl LIX proves that America is 'SO BACK' | Blaze Media

Booyens says that the Super Bowl is evidence that America is done pandering to a small, vocal minority.

“America didn't really stray,” he says. “What happened was there was a very small amount of people that were very, very well funded aligned with the mainstream media that tried to convince us that … we've moved past patriotism” and that now “we're progressive.”

Those days, it appears, are over. The Super Bowl is just one of many examples.

'Gross insubordination': FEMA workers fired for sending $59 million to luxury hotels in New York City * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

'Gross insubordination': FEMA workers fired for sending $59 million to luxury hotels in New York City * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh

"These funds have been misappropriated going back to the Biden administration and New York City – a sanctuary city – has been wasting billions of dollars of taxpayer money to provide free housing, clothing, food, education and healthcare to illegal immigrants, including criminal aliens that are here illegally," charged, Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y.

"That money is meant for American disaster relief and instead is being spent on high-end hotels for illegals," Musk, who heads Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, said. "A clawback demand will be made today to recoup those funds."

Victor Davis Hanson: Germany’s ‘Slow-Motion Suicide’

Was she murdered by the clinic to "prove a point"??!!-----?!-----US aid freeze claims first victims as oxygen supplies cut off

Seventy-one-year-old woman dies after being sent home from USAID funded hospital. 
Others die after hospitals close in refugee camps - Sarah Newey 
  • A 71-year-old woman has died after her oxygen supply was cut off when the United States announced a freeze on aid funding.
  • Pe Kha Lau, a refugee from Myanmar living in a displacement camp in neighbouring Thailand, died four days after she was discharged from a USAID-funded healthcare facility operated by the International Rescue Committee (IRC).
She is thought to be one of the first people to have died as a direct result of Washington’s decision to freeze all funding for aid projects for 90 days...
The organisation operates clinics that cater to roughly 80,000 people in nine refugee camps close to the Myanmar border, but abruptly closed and locked seven out of its nine hospitals to comply with the uncompromising US directive. 
The agency may be subject to an exemption as it offers lifesaving assistance, but it is not yet clear when a waiver could be issued...
