President Trump’s EPA head, Lee Zeldin, will try to recover the $20 billion in taxpayer funds lost by the Biden administration to climate projects. On Wednesday, he accused Biden of “throwing gold bars of the Titanic” in relation to the money lost on climate projects that he said was a “rush job with reduced oversight.” “The days of irresponsibly shoveling boatloads of cash to far-left activist groups in the name of environmental justice and climate equity are over. The American public deserves a more transparent and accountable government than what transpired these past four years.” “The financial agent agreement with the bank needs to be instantly terminated, and the bank must immediately return all of the gold bars that the Biden administration tossed off the Titanic.” Zeldin says the EPA will also terminate its contract with Citi bank which oversees the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, a program that emerged from Biden’s 2022 climate policy. The fund seeks to leverage public and private dollars to invest in clean-energy technologies such as solar panels, heat pumps and more. Citi had an agreement with the Biden administration to oversee the release of $20 billion under the program to nonprofit groups and states. A Project Veritas video from December featured an EPA official saying that the Biden administration was “trying to get the money out as fast as possible before they come in and stop it all.” .

Allegedly, FEMA has clawed back over $80 million from New York City, money earmarked for illegal alien hotels. A federal judge said he wouldn’t stop FEMA from reclaiming the funds. Gone is a $59 million grant that the administration challenged earlier in the week and another award for $21.5 million, City Comptroller Brad Lander said. The money was discovered missing overnight. Lander was unaware that the federal government had access to the city's bank account. Mayor Eric Adams, a Democrat just let off the hook by President Trump, says city officials have contacted the White House about getting back the money. Good luck with that.

“A lot of attention has been on [the dismantling of] USAID for example. There's like the National Endowment for Democracy. But I’m like, Okay, well, how much democracy have they achieved lately? [On another note] President Trump is less interested in interfering with the affairs of other countries. There are times the United States has been kind of pushy in international affairs, which may resonate with some members of the audience. Basically, America should mind its own business, rather than push for regime change all over the place." Elon Musk

“I’d like the Department of Education to be closed immediately. Look, the Department of Education is a big con job. We’re ranked — so they ranked the top forty countries in the world. We’re ranked number 40th, but we’re ranked number one in one department, costs per pupil. So, we spend more per pupil than any other country in the world, but we’re ranked number 40. We’ve been between 38 and 40, the last time I looked it was 38 and then I looked two days ago … it came out at number 40. Norway, Denmark, Sweden, I hate to say it — China, as big as it is, it’s ranked in the top five. That’s a primary competitor. We’re ranked number 40 — so, if we’re ranked number 40, that means something’s really wrong, right? The United States government should send education back down to states. I say send it back to Iowa, to Idaho, to Colorado. We probably have 35, maybe 37 states that will do as well as Denmark, Norway, Finland, Sweden. They’ll be just as good. I want to let the states run schools. I believe strongly in school choice, but in addition, I want the states to run schools." President Trump

A federal judge on Wednesday lifted the temporary freeze on President Trump's 'buyout' offer to federal workers. Massachusetts District Judge George O’Toole ruled the unions lack standing to challenge the directive and are not directly impacted by it.

The Democrats, intelligent people, couldn’t possibly actually believe a word of what they’re saying. They’re paid to promote someone’s agenda. Remember all the BLM protesters that abruptly came from nowhere, and just as quickly disappeared. They were transported in and paid. Who was behind that “show”?

President Trump and President Putin had a phone conversation today to end the war in Ukraine. 'We want to stop the millions of deaths taking place in the War with Russia/Ukraine. President Putin even used my very strong campaign motto of, 'COMMON SENSE'. We both believe very strongly in it. We agreed to work together, very closely, including visiting each other's nations. We have also agreed to have our respective teams start negotiations immediately, and we will begin by calling President Zelensky, of Ukraine, to inform him of the conversation, something which I will be doing right now.' Trump then phoned Zelensky and said the Ukrainian leader also wants an end to the war. 'The conversation went very well. He, like President Putin, wants to make PEACE.' The President says Zelensky will meet on Friday in Munich with Vice President Vance and Secretary of State Rubio. 'I am hopeful that the results of that meeting will be positive. It is time to stop this ridiculous War, where there has been massive, and totally unnecessary, DEATH and DESTRUCTION. God bless the people of Russia and Ukraine!'

The Senate has voted 52 to 48 to confirm President Donald Trump's pick of Tulsi Gabbard as the director of National Intelligence. Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) was the only Republican to vote alongside the Democrats to oppose Gabbard's confirmation.

Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has found people who are 'probably dead' still receiving social security checks. "Reexamination of Social Security – we've got people in there that are 150-years-old. Now do you know anyone who's 150? I don't. They should be in the Guinness Book of World Records. They're missing out. So, that's the case where I think they're probably dead, my guess, or they should be very famous – one of the two." Elon Musk

The results are in: The Democratic Party’s Bidenomics strategy produced a disastrous score of just 160,000 extra jobs for Americans during each year of Biden’s presidency. However, Bidenomics also created jobs for 4.7 million migrants, including almost three million illegal aliens, according to federal data collected by the Center for Immigration Studies and reported on February 7. So Bidenomics created 7.3 million migrant jobs for every job gained by an American citizen, even as it also exploded the national debt by $8 trillion. Biidenomics also flatlined wages, spiked housing costs, and slowed workplace investment. The Bidenomics 7:1 policy — 4.7 million jobs for migrants, 645,000 for Americans — what was their goal, their end-game? https://www.breitbart.com/immigration/2025/02/12/bidenomics-final-score-7-jobs-for-migrants-for-each-american-job/

Core inflation in January rose 3 percent from a year earlier. Thus, Jay Powell will not lower interest rates further, in the near-term. The fed shouldn't have lowered rates the last time, given we all knew that inflation had not yet been tamed.

So in essence, what President Trump is trying to do now that has the Democrats in an uproar...............is exactly what Democrat President Obama was trying to do a decade ago. .
