Trump 2025

(Rumor has it---Declan had his evil tentacles in this).

But only 4......

[Declan MacPherson]

The same Leftists who wanted all corruption revealed if there was any committed by 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐌𝐏, don't want any fraud, waste, corruption or abuse revealed if it has been committed by agencies of the US federal government.

The same Leftists who demanded complete transparency on 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐌𝐏's tax returns, don't want complete transparency as to how tax revenue is spent by agencies of the US federal government.

The same Leftists who were silent when Biden ignored court rulings and the US Constitution, insist that 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐌𝐏 follow every judicial ruling handed down that violates his presidential powers and authority.

Cognitive Dissonance and Hypocrisy are Leftist afflictions that require intellectual dishonesty and willful blindness.

[jackspratt]

There can be no greater Cognitive Dissonance, Hypocrisy, intellectual dishonesty and willful blindness than excusing yourself because the other mob (allegedly) did it.

Just as there can be no greater crime than trying to overturn democracy by fomenting an insurrection.

𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐌𝐏 Statement on Reciprocal Tariffs

On Trade, I have decided, for purposes of Fairness, that I will charge a RECIPROCAL Tariff meaning, whatever Countries charge the United States of America, we will charge them - No more, no less!

For purposes of this United States Policy, we will consider Countries that use the VAT System, which is far more punitive than a Tariff, to be similar to that of a Tariff. Sending merchandise, product, or anything by any other name through another Country, for purposes of unfairly harming America, will not be accepted. In addition, we will make provision for subsidies provided by Countries in order to take Economic advantage of the United States. Likewise, provisions will be made for Nonmonetary Tariffs and Trade Barriers that some Countries charge in order to keep our product out of their domain or, if they do not even let U.S. businesses operate. We are able to accurately determine the cost of these Nonmonetary Trade Barriers. It is fair to all, no other Country can complain and, in some cases, if a Country feels that the United States would be getting too high a Tariff, all they have to do is reduce or terminate their Tariff against us. There are no Tariffs if you manufacture or build your product in the United States.

For many years, the U.S. has been treated unfairly by other Countries, both friend and foe. This System will immediately bring Fairness and Prosperity back into the previously complex and unfair System of Trade. America has helped many Countries throughout the years, at great financial cost. It is now time that these Countries remember this, and treat us fairly – A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD FOR AMERICAN WORKERS. I have instructed my Secretary of State, Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of the Treasury, and United States Trade Representative (USTR) to do all work necessary to deliver RECIPROCITY to our System of Trade!

Recent DOGE Audit of Social Security

Social Security data has revealed the existence of tens of millions of eligible recipients beyond the total population of the United Sates.

The spreadsheet of data showed millions of recipients over the age of 120, including one between the ages of 360 and 369. In total, the data accounted for nearly 395 million people. The population of the U.S. is roughly 335 million people, meaning that about 60 million Social Security numbers were listed as eligible beyond the living population.

The total population, notably includes illegal people who may not be eligible recipients and therefore the gap between that figure and current records may be even larger.

“You’re going to see a paper trail come back to Washington, DC. That’s why a lot of people are nervous. Going to see a lot of retirements. They are stealing from the American people and got caught.”
- Representative Tim Burchett of Tennessee on DOGE revelations

Or they could simply be over reliant on excel spreadsheets (where's Whistler when you really need him?)

But, by the same token, UM membership numbers far exceed the collective population of Idaho, Iceland, Botswana and Tarrant County, TX. Do you think I should mention it to the White House tech support honcho?

Boom Boom Boom

Infamous Judge Tanya Chutkan, who oversaw Trump's "election interference" case, blocks Democrat state attorneys general attempts to shut down DOGE.

When TRUTH gets so BIG & LOUD that even Democrat Lawfare Activist Judges can no longer ignore it.

Told ya.

[jackspratt]

With utter predictability, only half the story.

The judge asked the Justice Department to provide her quickly with evidence of what DOGE is doing, including facts about the mass firings taking place across the government and any others planned over the next two weeks.

Although Chutkan seemed disinclined to grant an immediate restraining order, she seemed to hold a more favorable view of the states’ wider lawsuit against Musk. The states will have more opportunities to gather and present further evidence about Musk’s activities as the litigation continues.

“Mr. Musk hasn’t been nominated, confirmed by Congress or appointed to anything,” Chutkan said, describing the states’ case. “He’s been sort of tasked with directing the actions of this organization. … This is essentially a private citizen directing an organization that’s not a federal agency that has access to the entire workings of the federal government, fire, hire, slash contracts, terminate programs all without apparently any congressional oversight.”

Follow The Money: Feds Gave Millions To Left-Wing Media Outlets Including Politico, The New York Times
https://thefederalist.com/2025/02/06/fo ... ork-times/

Federal agencies have been funneling millions to leftist media outlets including The Associated Press, Politico, Reuters, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and CNN, according to public grant disclosures.

These legacy corporations have fashioned themselves the gatekeepers of information to the American public. But ever since 2015, when now-President Donald Trump announced his first campaign — and even earlier — they have spewed lie after lie in an attempt to control the political narrative.

All of these media sources have been in effect STATIST MEDIA peddling the Democrat and globalist narratives.

Politico can never be trusted. They are corrupt and bought.

[jackspratt]

Hypocrisy writ large - again.

Anything to discredit any source instead of attacking the information itself.

But let's play the game.

Overall, we rate The Federalist Questionable and far-Right Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that always favor the right and promotion of propaganda, conspiracy theories, and numerous failed fact checks.

Overall, we rate Politico Left-Center biased based on story selection and editorial positions that slightly favor the left. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing and a clean fact check record.

$4,700,000,000,000.00

DOGE just found that a standard financial bookkeeping process at US Treasury was "OPTIONAL" and not required for nearly $4.7 Trillion in US Treasury payments. This made tracing all of those payments almost impossible.

The Treasury Access Symbol (TAS) is an identification code linking a Treasury payment to a budget line item (standard financial process). In the Federal Government, the TAS field was optional for payments and was often left blank.

As of this past weekend, this is now a required field, which will increase insight into where money is actually going.

The new US Treasury leadership was instrumental in helping to uncover this money-laundering fixture.

The gravy train is OVER, and the Democrats and GOPe Mush RATs are not happy.

Media Bias Fact Check Is a Major SCAM to Silence the Right
https://www.independentsentinel.com/med ... nce-right/

The Independent Sentinel was rated "highly factual" by biased Media Bias Fact Check -- until the Independent Sentinel EXPOSED Media Bias.

Update: Since I reposted this expose of Media Bias Fact Check, Van Zandt decided to give the Sentinel the worst possible and false rating, He originally rated my site “highly factual”. He started to downgrade based on other far-left fact checkers. Now he has the site in the depths.

Anyone and everyone can vote on the MediaBiasFactCheck website in the poll and do so as many times as they want.

One person voted for the Sentinel as “right-center” over and over until “right-center” took the lead. The poll only judged the majority votes and one person can vote as many times as one chooses.

It is kinda like Leftist Wikipedia for fact checkers.

The owner of Media Bias Fact Check was asked for background:

Asked for information concerning his expertise in the field of journalism and evaluating news sources, Van Zandt told WND: “I am not a journalist and just a person who is interested in how media bias impacts politics. You will find zero claims of expertise on the website.”
. . .

Van Zandt says he uses “three volunteers” to “research and assist in fact-checking.” However, he adds that he doesn’t pay them for their services.

Pretty funny stuff.

[jackspratt]

Let's keep playing.

Overall, we rate the Independent Sentinel Right Biased and Questionable based on the use of poor sources, the promotion of propaganda and conspiracy theories, and some false claims.

* Rate the bias of Independent Sentinel *

This poll is for entertainment purposes and does not change our overall rating.

Today, the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security announced a nationwide and international warning to illegal aliens to leave the United States now or face deportation and be tagged with an INABILITY TO EVER RETURN status. Leave now, and there will be a possibility to return legally.

It is time for the Illegal Alien Tax on Americans to end; and too many have paid that tax with their lives.

One wonders how reliable the University of Toronto is for facts. If their info. on Declan MacPherson is anything to go by, the University better hope it does not become part of the 51st State or Musk and his boys will be looking to improve their efficiency because that is not Declan as we know him.

I am not in favor of Canada becoming a state. It would be the equivalent of another Commiefornia with all of the Leftists residing there.
