Thomas Massie Vindicated On COVID ‘Stimulus’ Spending

Back in early 2020 when Congress rushed to pass trillions in “emergency” COVID spending, US Rep. Thomas Massie warned that it would be the biggest wealth transfer from the middle class to the elites in history. As DOGE is finding out, Massie was absolutely right. Trillions spent to the benefit of the political classes and crumbs dropping from the table to the middle and working classes. Also today…US voted against UN resolution condemning Russia for Ukraine. What’s up?

What Five Things Did You Accomplish This Week?

Federal workers are having a major meltdown over receiving an email from the Office of Personnel Management (by way of Elon Musk’s DOGE) asking them to reply with five things they accomplished in the previous week. Will the rest of America sympathize with their panic over having to justify their “jobs for life”?

Should The Government Mail You $5,000?

Trump Advisor Elon Musk has proposed that the American people should benefit from DOGE’s savings, suggesting that US taxpayers be sent a $5K “refund” check. Will this work? Also today, Sen. Paul makes a critical point about how to preserve and expanding DOGE savings.

DOGE Versus DoD: Pop Some Popcorn!

The DOGE government-cutting train has finally made its way to the Pentagon, promising to slash the bloated staff of America’s “defense” HQ. Will they be successful? Also today…the US flew B-52s and fighter jets across the Middle East as a show of force to Iran. How much did that cost? Finally today…a good news story.

Successful US/Russia Talks Leave EU & Zelensky Pounding Sand!

While the “adults” met yesterday in Saudi Arabia to discuss repairing US/Russia relations and ending the disastrous Ukraine war, European officials and Ukraine’s (former) president Zelensky are in full panic mode, demanding that the war continue and vowing that Ukraine can still “win.” Also today: DOGE finds…$4.7 TRILLION in “untraceable” US government payments!

Bibi To Rubio: ‘Let’s Attack Iran!’

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, long-known for his attachment to Israel, was in the country over the weekend for a visit with Israeli PM Netanyahu. Perhaps buoyed by Trump’s plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza, Bibi decided to push one step further, announcing that the US and Israel need to “finish the job” against Iran. Will Trump’s pledge of “no new wars” be able to withstand Bibi’s demands? Also today…how much gold is in Fort Knox? One Senator wants to know.

The Beginning Of The End Of The War In Ukraine

And all of a sudden…the end began. President Trump holds a 90 minute phone call with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, agreeing to soon hold a summit of the two leaders. Trump’s read-out of the call makes it clear that his pro-Ukraine “Special Envoy” Kellogg is out of the picture. Is peace on the horizon? What will it take? Also today, the mis-named National Endowment for Democracy is defunded.

USGOV Employees Freak Out When DOGE Comes Calling…

Welcome to the real world. Politico is reporting today that US government employees in the General Services Administration are experiencing “anxiety” when Trump Administration officials from the Department of Government Efficiency request an interview to assess the employee’s skills and work performance. Also today: Trump fires USAID official critical of changes at that agency. Finally…SecDef Hegseth drops a bomb: “No NATO for Ukraine.”

What’s Trump’s Next Move on Ukraine?

With Trump now confirming that he has spoken with Russian president Putin – the first talk between US and Russian heads of state since 2022 – what will be his strategy to fulfill his promise to end the war? Will he exert “maximum pressure” on both sides? Will he hand off the hot potato to the Europeans? Also today: Trump’s new steel tariffs – good move?

How Would Ron Paul Audit The Fed?

Over the weekend there were a flurry of viral posts on X – led by Elon Musk – suggesting that Ron Paul should head up the auditing of the Federal Reserve…and even that he should be tapped as Fed Chairman! Millions who have followed his often lonely crusade against the Fed are finally seeing some results. Can it happen…and how?

Is There Any Media That USAID Did NOT Fund?

A look behind the curtain has revealed a horrific truth: Nearly the entire mainstream media – worldwide – has been funded by the US government under the USAID. From the BBC to the New York Times and Politico… At this point it might be easier to find out who USAID has NOT funded in the media sphere!

Wait…We’re Taking Over Gaza?

Sitting next to a beaming Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump announced that the US would be clearing all Palestinians off their land in Gaza, that US troops would move in, and that the US would rebuild it for Israelis to take over once finished. This is making America great again? Also today: the US government subsidized pro-Biden media to the tune of millions of dollars!
