In his inaugural address in 1961, President John Kennedy gave a stirring speech in which he famously stated, “And so, my fellow Americans: Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.”
He then went on to say, “Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you.”
Nonsense.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s website went dark as Office of Management Director Russ Vought was named acting CFPB director, and DOGE began its audit.
One of the first acts of the incoming Trump administration was to fire the serving director of the CFPB (see Trump Admin. Continues to Clean House, Firing Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Chief) and appoint newly confirmed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent as acting director; see Trump Fires Head of CFPB and Gets a Surprising Acting Director. Bessent immediately ordered CFPB to cease all regulatory and communications activities.

When it comes to questions about “climate change,” bad news for the fanatics is good news for everyone else.
Good news about growing wealth, the availability of food, and actual human ingenuity in facing challenges tends to put a monkey wrench in globalist plans to wreck world economies to battle what amounts to a phantom menace.
And two studies about global development published by credible experts on the subject show just how good the news actually is.

Social media sensation Xaviaer DuRousseau, a former Black Lives Matter activist who “accidentally red-pilled” himself while watching PragerU videos and is now a full-time PragerU personality, told Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow that the left “weaponized fear,” but the American people are “over it,” because “all that did was divide.”
“What is your perspective on race in America right now? It is an optimistic time or is it a pessimistic time because the left is insistingly talking about race all the time, and we don’t really need to,” Marlow asked on Thursday’s episode of The Alex Marlow Show, to which DuRousseau replied, “I grew up in such a progressive dynamic where I was always being told to fixate on race, and all that did was divide.”

The recent revelations are but the latest in a decades long history of media manipulation and perception management.
The global corporate media apparatus is in panic mode. Following President Donald Trump’s inauguration day executive order freezing all US foreign aid for 90 days awaiting review, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has since been placed on the chopping block. Citing alleged fraud and waste, Trump and Musk aim to shut down the agency and merge it into the US State Department. The move has sparked the ire of pundits and officials the world over.

Did you know that approximately $1,000,000,000 in obviously fraudulent payments flow through the U.S. Treasury’s payment system every week? Until Elon Musk and his DOGE team stepped in, nobody in the government was doing anything about this theft. Please read all the way to the end of this article for the details. Suspiciously, the Democrats are desperately trying to get the courts to keep Elon Musk and his team out of the U.S. Treasury’s payment system. Why is that? What are they working so hard to hide?

In the ongoing struggle to write the history of the pandemic years, nothing is more important than mortality – did the world’s governments save us from mass mortality or not?
The grand strategy (which as I have said before was neither grand nor strategic) was to lock down the population of whole countries as an interim measure ‘until a vaccine becomes available.’
This was a novel (and completely unproven) strategy to defeat a supposedly completely novel virus, on the grounds that no human had ever encountered anything like SARS-CoV-2 before so no one would have any pre-existing immunity to it. But the clue is in the name – SARS-CoV-2 was named after SARS to which it was closely related, sharing approximately 79% of its genome sequence according to this paper in Nature. It is situated within a cluster of coronaviruses, and another Nature paper discussed the extent of cross-reactivity with these including the common cold viruses, and even with other families of viruses altogether. It was somewhat novel, but not unique.

While it’s certainly mathematically possible to balance the budget, it’s not humanly possible. An eighth-grade math class in Peru or Portugal, having no preconceived illusions about US spending, and no prejudices about what to cut, could balance the budget. Musk said he could strip $2 trillion from the budget. So could I, but Congress won’t pass most of the DOGE recommendations. It’s also not humanly possible to balance the budget because not only do fiscally irresponsible voters keep sending the wrong people to Congress, but those same voters can’t even agree on where to make the necessary cuts to balance the budget.
