Last night, President Trump terminated Dr Anthony Fauci's taxpayer-funded security detail. Fauci retired in December 2022, but Biden provided him a security detail.

Not sure why this is coming back out now. Still, most Americans don't know about it. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-14318861/declassified-cia-documents-agency-plot-kill-americans-cuba-war.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=social-twitter_dailymailus

Sounds like someone needs a job change. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14321541/federal-workers-work-home-executive-order.html

U.S. lawmakers introduced a bipartisan bill on Thursday that would revoke China's preferential trade status with the United States, phase in steep tariffs and end the "de minimis" exemption for low-value Chinese imports. The bill, introduced by John Moolenaar, the Republican chair of the House of Representatives' select committee on China, comes after President Trump issued a memo on Monday asking his cabinet to assess legislation on the Permanent Normal Trade Relations (PNTR) designation for Beijing. Congress approved PNTR for China in 2000 under Bill Clinton, paving the way for its entry into the World Trade Organization. But the U.S. has routinely found the large role of the state in China's economy, including hefty government subsidies for strategic industries, to violate the global trade body's rules. "This gamble failed. This legislation will safeguard U.S. national security, enhance supply chain resilience, and bring manufacturing jobs back to America and our allies," says Moolenaar. Trump, who has railed against China's vast trade surplus with the U.S., has vowed more duties on Chinese goods. Moolenaar's Restoring Trade Fairness Act was co-sponsored by Democratic Representative Tom Suozzi and introduced with a companion bill in the Senate. Moolenaar says granting China PNTR ushered in waves of Chinese imports, depleted U.S. manufacturing and made the U.S. susceptible to economic coercion from its foremost adversary.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has ordered the State Department to cease the "X" gender option on passport applications. The policy of the United States is that an individual's sex is not changeable. A person's 'sex' should be used in official government documents, including passports and consular reports of birth abroad documents. Marco Rubio

Tennessee congressman Rep. Andy Ogles has proposed amending the Constitution to allow President Trump to serve a third term. He filed a Joint Resolution in congress this week advancing a change to the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution. His resolution includes several stipulations to the change if it passes, including barring any president being elected to a third consecutive term after serving two in a row. And no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice. Ogles believes Trump will need another eight years to carry out his goal of reshaping America. President Trump’s decisive leadership stands in stark contrast to the chaos, suffering, and economic decline Americans have endured over the past four years. He has proven himself to be the only figure in modern history capable of reversing our nation’s decay and restoring America to greatness, and he must be given the time necessary to accomplish that goal. To that end, I am proposing an amendment to the Constitution to revise the limitations imposed by the 22nd Amendment on presidential terms. This amendment would allow President Trump to serve three terms, ensuring that we can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs.

Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee says his state will not prosecute illegal aliens unless they have also committed a crime. Well sir they did commit a crime, when they illegally entered the US. Countries worldwide view illegal entry as a very serious crime. Per Biden, McKee is being a good democrat.

President Trump today ordered the declassification of all remaining documents about President John F. Kennedy's 1963 murder. During President Trump's first term, Mike Pompeo persuaded the President not to release the files. I was actually asked by Mike Pompeo, secretary of State, not to, and I felt he knew something that maybe, you know , when he asked you not to, you sort of say "why?" and he felt that it was not a good time to release them. Interestingly, President Trump today also revoked government security protection for Pompeo and his top aide Brian Hook.

Well exactly. The 14th simply needs more clarification. Obviously it doesn't apply to non-residents (illegal aliens) who criminally entered the country. For me it goes without saying, but for the official record the 14th must be amended to explicitly state that.

U.S. District Federal Judge John Coughenour on Thursday temporarily blocked President Trump’s executive order correcting the understanding of birthright citizenship, calling it “blatantly unconstitutional”. Coughenour repeatedly, rudely and unprofessionally interrupted a Justice Department lawyer during arguments to ask how he could consider the order constitutional. When the attorney, Brett Shumate, said he’d like a chance to explain it in a full briefing, Coughenour told him the hearing was his chance. The temporary restraining order sought by Arizona, Illinois, Oregon and Washington was the first to get a hearing before a judge and applies nationally. The case is one of five lawsuits being brought by 22 states. Coughenour, a Ronald Reagan appointee, began the hearing by grilling the administration’s attorneys, saying the order “boggles the mind.” No Judge Coughenour, what boggles the mind is your inability to grasp that children born to illegal aliens who shouldn't be on U.S. soil to begin with inherently have no right to citizenship. We don't reward foreigners for criminally entering the U.S. with child citizenship. Democratic slogan (in video): "I'll tell you what's fair and what's not". Judge Coughenour acted alike Dean Vernon Wormer saying "I think we've heard enough, Mr. Chairman". .

I had a fleet that bought 20 DMs with Thermodynes and Fuller 13-speeds. I pleaded with them to pay up for the indestructible Maxidyne/Maxitorque drivetrain. They had Internationals with that small diesel and Fullers.......one couldn't convince them that Mack had an altogether different and game-changing powertrain.

Trump was absolutely brilliant in his Davos speech. His ability to send multiple messages is superb. If the Saudi's lower Brent, Russia will be forced to end the war and Saudi Inc. gets mega stature points. And lowering Brent allows Fed chairman Powell to resume lowering interest rates and at a faster pace. . https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2025-01-23/trump-urges-opec-to-lower-oil-price-in-davos-address-video

They bought on price.

No. We sold them until demand fell off. In other words, when we reached that point where every customer who wanted to convert a B into an R had done so. And after all, an R was a better truck than a BCR as they were available with Walter May's and Win Pelizzoni's game-changing Maxidyne powerplant.

Geez, you just can't make this stuff up................. TV station ABC7 Chicago is broadcasting to illegal aliens on how to avoid being taken into custody by ICE. Trump should have the FCC cancel their broadcasting license, and have management and that news anchor arrested for treason. The arrogance of illegal aliens in the US. is really something. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14317469/abc-chicago-illegal-migrants-ice-capture.html We need to come down hard so they realize the criminal immigration show has completely changed and they will face the harshest consequences. The US must now be known for "zero tolerance". Take this illegal rapist.....I would with him send the ultimate message. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14317437/illegal-migrant-sexually-abusing-girl-luis-lopez-martinez.html

Mack sold many BCR kits.

If they dislike our country's leadership so much, they are welcome to leave at any time. The door swings both ways.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta says “The President is attempting to intimidate and bully state and local law enforcement into carrying out his mass deportation agenda for him". Apparently, and surprisingly, he doesn't understand the concept of federal law.

In Germany, the Turkish immigrants are doing the many jobs that Germans no longer want to do.

The problem is, while the first generation arrivals were hard workers, until the recent arrival of the young gangs, their children don't want to do that work. So you get a single generation workforce. And again, there appear to be millions of younger Americans who refuse to enter the work force. They don't want to be a roofer, truck mechanic or warehouse worker. Rather than start their own lives, they remain at home. It a bit reminds me of what I said many years ago........."cultural decay, and declining standards of behavior".

The core of President Donald Trump’s agenda runs through 91-year-old Chuck Grassley, who has been in the chamber longer than his vice president has been alive................................................... https://www.politico.com/news/2025/01/23/chuck-grassley-age-trump-agenda-005992

That's going to be a challenge. For decades, a large percentage of farm help were illegals. Many here know that. And the U.S. working age people who don't work, those who choose crime over employment, those homeless people who opt out of working............they're not going to hit the fields and pick. I expect it will be a challenge we'll have to work through. Perhaps a new temporary stay (seasonal farm worker) visa will be issued with new high levels of monitoring and conditions (limited freedom of movement within the US).

Acting Homeland Security Secretary Benjamin Huffman has outlined plans to extend immigration enforcement powers to Justice Department agencies, including the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and the U.S. Marshals Service. (The ATF and DEA traditionally only become involved in immigration cases when they involve gun and drug trafficking.) He noted that FBI agents have authority under Title 8 to arrest immigrants. Administration officials are asking the Department of Justice to cooperate by allowing their agents to get involved. A DHS memo dated Tuesday warns local governments that if they seek to shield illegal immigrants from detection or deportation by federal authorities, they now face criminal prosecution.
