Seems a reasonable request since they get SOOOO much US money!-----Trump says Harvard should reveal names and home countries of its international students | Just The News
"We want those names and countries. Harvard has $52,000,000, use it, and stop asking for the Federal Government to continue GRANTING money to you!" Trump wrote. By Nicholas Ballasy 
- "Why isn’t Harvard saying that almost 31% of their students are from FOREIGN LANDS, and yet those countries, some not at all friendly to the United States, pay NOTHING toward their student’s education, nor do they ever intend to," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Nobody told us that!"

For those that don't understand what President Trump is doing.....
.In Dec 2023 there was a decision by the World Court, that gave water above land shelves to those countries and ruled they were not international water. - Michael Craig Powell 
- The renaming of the Gulf of America isn't renaming the whole gulf.
- It is renaming the area above our land shelves as our territory.
You can't exactly put signs or border walls in the middle of the ocean.
So for legal reasons, we need to identify these new changes on the map, so that new borders are made clear to maritime traffic.
Those new maps will set the latitude and longitudes of where our border begins, or the Gulf of America. So all maritime traffic knows when they are leaving international waters.
This is where knowing what is happening in the world, will help you filter out drama, and help you understand the legalities in your own country.
- This had nothing to do with Trump's ego, he is strengthening our borders and making sure all maritime traffic understands the changes that happened in 2023....

Daniel Jupp - When Trump started using tariffs the free trade... | Facebook - Daniel Jupp 
When Trump started using tariffs the free trade fetish conservatives howled as loudly as the Democrats.
- “Look at the stock markets! He’s mad, free trade is a conservative principle!”...
People who pay attention were far less concerned and hysterical.
- Trump uses tariffs as a weapon.
It’s not a permanent position unless others make it so.
And of course then a line of nations, including China, begged for a deal...

'Beneath the radar': How India using job platforms and corporate alliances to shaft U.S. workers * WorldNetDaily * by Amanda Bartolotta
'Beneath the radar': How India using job platforms and corporate alliances to shaft U.S. workers * WorldNetDaily * by Amanda Bartolotta:
The case brings into focus a much deeper issue: how artificial intelligence, job platforms, and corporate partnerships have quietly reengineered America's hiring infrastructure. Through algorithmic filters and foreign-aligned job pipelines, U.S. workers are being screened out, systematically replaced by a workforce handpicked and trained to bypass them entirely. And it's happening beneath the radar, through the very technology Americans are told is designed to be "fair."

DOGE’s Unfinished Business
Our Review of DOGE’s Work Shows It's Up to Congress to Enact Savings - OpenTheBooks
Elon Musk...while speaking to the Qatar Economic Forum, he made his office’s limitations clear to Bloomberg reporter Mishal Husain:
“DOGE is an advisory group; we are doing the best we can as an advisory group.”
“We do not make the laws, nor do we control the judiciary, nor do we control the Executive Branch,” Musk elaborated. “We are simply advisors. In that context, we are doing very well. We cannot take action beyond that because we are not some sort of imperial dictator of the government. There are three branches of government that are, to some degree, opposed to that level of cost savings.”
The Trump administration has claimed DOGE has saved taxpayers $160 billion so far.
Critics, including some on the right, said DOGE hasn’t achieved that level of savings.
So, who is right?
And how can the average person see the data and decide for themselves?
- At Open the Books we take these questions seriously and have tried to bring some transparency to the question in the analysis below...
Buying off the real science??!!-----Who is bankrolling the anti-MAHA movement? | Blaze Media
A deep dive into Big Ag's push against the MAHA movement - Rebeka Zeljko
- The MAHA report's findings suggested that exposure to agricultural chemicals like pesticides and insecticides are one of the many root causes that have contributed to chronic diseases and health epidemics afflicting American children...
American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall said the MAHA report "sows seeds of doubt and fear" and called the White House's endorsement of the report "deeply troubling."
- Notably, Blaze News found that multiple local chapters of the Farm Bureau have collectively received hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants from Monsanto, a subsidiary of Bayer Global, which manufactures agricultural chemicals and GMO technologies.
- Some of this money has been allocated for various disaster relief programs, while some has gone toward political action committees.
- For instance, the Oregon Farm Bureau PAC has received over $130,000 from Monsanto from 2007 to 2017, much of which was "raised during an annual golf tournament" hosted by the Oregon Farm Bureau to "raise money for its political activities."...

'Snooping around': Government officials under fire for bypassing state constitution * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
A court is being asked to act against state officials who bypass the requirements of their own state constitution.
The situation is that while the Alabama Constitution "makes it clear that if the government wants to come searching on your property, they need a warrant based on probable cause," agents from the state Department of Conservation and Natural Resources simply cite a statute to ignore that requirement.

- Turns out both states collect money from the federal government.”...
- Oz echoed statements made by GOP lawmakers, including House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.)., who in recent days said that able-bodied individuals and illegal immigrants have received Medicaid benefits...
“I think there’s a moral hazard if we don’t, because you’ve got people who are not working who could work, who should work, and it’s better for them and better for the country if they do,” he said, referring to Republicans’ having added work requirements to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that passed in the House of Representatives on May 22...
