Trump Administration Updates

Donald Trump's Whitehouse has just released its latest National Security Strategy document, which makes for extraordinary reading. Trump clearly thinks Western Europe is done for, economically, democratically (he talks of genuine Soviet-era tyranny re the EU) and racially. He also thinks this will have serious consequences for NATO, which of course it would when (unless stopped) Britain, Germany and France become Islamic controlled countries. Some excerpts from the document here, quote:
The Era of Mass Migration Is Over – Who a country admits into its borders—in what numbers and from where—will inevitably define the future of that nation.
Continental Europe has been losing share of global GDP—down from 25 percent in 1990 to 14 percent today. But this economic decline is eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilizational erasure. The larger issues facing Europe include activities of the European Union and other transnational bodies that undermine political liberty and sovereignty, migration policies that are transforming the continent and creating strife, censorship of free speech and suppression of political opposition, cratering birth-rates, and loss of national identities and self-confidence.
Should present trends continue, the continent will be unrecognizable in 20 years or less. As such, it is far from obvious whether certain European countries will have economies and militaries strong enough to remain reliable allies. Many of these nations are currently doubling down on their present path. We want Europe to remain European, and to regain its civilizational self-confidence
Over the long term, it is more than plausible that within a few decades at the latest, certain NATO members will become majority non-European. As such, it is an open question whether they will view their place in the world, or their alliance with the United States, in the same way as those who signed the NATO charter.
End quote.
Could it be any clearer than this? Link to document here: whitehouse.gov/wp-content/upl… @benhabib6 @cfdownes_ @ElonMusk
Operation Southern Spear is the most aggressive U.S. military campaign ever launched against the drug cartels, and it is already delivering results.
Since President Trump signed the executive order on November 13 and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth activated the operation, the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group, F/A-18 squadrons, submarines, and unmanned drone swarms have been hunting narco-traffickers across the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean.
In less than a month the Pentagon reports 21 kinetic strikes, more than 80 cartel operatives killed or captured, and multiple “go-fast” vessels and semi-submersibles destroyed. This is not law enforcement. It is armed conflict against transnational criminals who flood countries with fentanyl and who, in the case of Venezuela’s Cartel de los Soles, operate as an arm of the Maduro regime itself.
Revelations from Hugo Carvajal, who pleaded guilty to narco-terrorism charges, further tie this poison pipeline to election sabotage. Smartmatic, the voting tech firm born in Caracas under Chávez, was allegedly engineered as a regime tool for manipulating results—deployed abroad, including the U.S., with alterable software that could undermine democracies while laundering cartel cash.
For the first time, narco-terrorists are facing the full spectrum of American power. Carrier air wings, Hellfire missiles, and international coalition partners, including Australia and Japan.
The message is clear. The era of impunity is over. The cartels built empires on American deaths. Now they will pay the price in full.
Trump is reconstructing the govt back to its constitutional roots.
And just like that Trump destroyed the 4th branch of government but all of those ppl out there that thinks he doesn't know what he's doing can **** right off!
Ppl need to understand that it is Congress that did this...over and over again. They created 'independent agencies' to shield themselves from doing their ******* job and shielded the president from any responsibility under an illusion of independent agencies that were never independent constitutionally. IT WAS ALL AN ILLUSION TO HIDE BEHIND AND DESTROY OUR COUNTRY USING THE TYRANNY OF INDEPENDENT AGENCIES.
Both parties. But parties against we the ppl.

Lame bs. Its dem obstruction that's being allowed by rino repub senators.
BREAKING: President Trump RIPS the Senate GOP and Chuck Grassley for letting Democrats obstruct his appointment of US Attorney Alina Habba and others
*SEVEN* US Attorneys will have to quit soon because the GOP IS DOING NOTHING.
"If I put up GEORGE WASHINGTON [in] Virginia where you have Dem Senators, they won't approve him! This gentlemen's agreement [blue slip] has lasted TOO LONG. It means you can't appoint a GOP US Attorney!"
"In VA, NJ, CA, a US Attorney or judge...the only people you can get by are Democrats because they put a HOLD ON IT!"
"It only takes one senator! If they are Democrat, they won't approve it."
"All because GRASSLEY with his BLUE SLIP stuff won't let anybody go by! And by the way, Democrats have violated blue slip!"
CC: @ChuckGrassley!
The deep state must have something on Chuck.
When Trump took office, Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley had the power to end or weaken the blue-slip veto — just like Democratic chairs had done before him.
But what did he do?
He kept the blue-slip tradition alive for district court nominees.
He insisted on being the “gentleman” who wouldn’t break Senate customs.
Result: Democratic senators gained a veto over Trump’s judges even when they were in the minority.
This single decision has allowed Democrats to stall, block, and slow-walk Trump nominees for years.
Why It Still Matters Today
Because Grassley kept the custom alive instead of killing it, Democrats now claim “precedent” and use it to:
•Choke Trump’s 2025 picks
•Freeze confirmations
•Demand concessions
•Drag out the process until it becomes the news cycle
Grassley thought he was preserving Senate dignity.
In reality, he preserved a one-sided weapon.
Repost, @ChuckGrassley is tagged!!

All of these new rulings don’t just affect today, they rewrite precedent. Trump still has three years left, and whatever expanded powers the Court hands him now will automatically pass to the next president as well.

Harmeet Dhillon Says The Supreme Court Is Set To STRIKE DOWN Racial Gerrymandering Under The Voting Rights Act.
"Among the first cases issued by the court of this term is going to be striking down the racial gerrymandering that previously the court has said was mandated under the Voting Rights Act."
"If everyone has to compete for all the votes, which I think is frankly the American way, people are going to scramble. We will have a fairer regime where we are not segregating people based on race. Such an outdated and repugnant and un-American concept."
Wut? The Supreme Court just greenlit Texas' new maps that a Trump appointee had previously ruled were racially gerrymandered.
BREAKING: In a massive development, President Trump just signed 5 laws OVERTURNING Biden-era restrictions on energy leasing across MILLIONS of acres in multiple states
This is HUGE! Land has been freed up for coal, oil and gas leasing.
States impacted: North Dakota, Montana, Alaska and Wyoming
Time for energy prices to go down and STAY down.
TRUMP BOOM: Trade deficit hits five year low, exports up 6%, China gap at near record lows, GDP boosted by Trump tariffs. Trillions in onshoring & new jobs prove America First is winning.
The US trade deficit has shrunk to its smallest level since 2020, down more than 35% year over year as Trump’s tariffs reshape global trade. Exports rose 6% to near all time highs, real consumer goods exports reached the largest level ever, & November’s deficit was slashed by more than half. The deficit with China is at its second smallest since 2009. Trump’s new trade agenda has secured deals with partners representing over half of global GDP and sparked trillions in onshoring investments that deliver tens of thousands of new American jobs.
Jobs jobs jobs!!!
JUST IN
JD Vance is pointing out something the media will never admit
Foreigners are suddenly NOT showing up for construction work in Louisiana now that Border Patrol swept the region
So guess what happens
They have to hire Americans
Imagine that
A construction business owner spelled it out
No immigrants wanna go to work and it is amazing
He says he got more calls in the last week than in the last three months
Twenty calls in a single day from Americans ready to work
Enforce the border and the American workforce comes roaring back
It is not complicated

WINNING!!!
This is why democrats in Congress are so angry at ICE and Kristi Noem.
This is why Soros is paying so many leftists to protest ICE.
“More than 2.5 million illegal immigrants have left the United States under the Trump administration, a “record-breaking achievement” in a year, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said in a Dec. 10 statement.”
“The 2.5 million figure includes more than 605,000 individuals deported as part of DHS enforcement operations and around 1.9 million illegal immigrants who have voluntarily self-deported since January.”
zerohedge.com/political/25-m…
The democrat party is literally witnessing their illegal voters and money launderers getting deported and voluntarily leaving and they can’t do anything about it.
And guess what?
It’s about to ACCELERATE.
Have you seen this story?
“Trump’s DHS locks in its own Boeing fleet as administration turbocharges deportation crackdown”
“The Department of Homeland Security inked a deal to purchase a fleet of Boeing planes to carry out the Trump administration's ongoing deportation efforts, Fox News Digital learned.”
“The Washington Post first reported Wednesday that the Department of Homeland Security signed a deal to purchase six Boeing 737 planes for deportations.
The funding is included in the "big, beautiful bill" approved by Congress and signed into law by President Donald Trump in July that advances his agenda on taxes, immigration, energy, defense and the national debt.
Congress approved $170 billion for various border and immigration efforts, the outlet reported.”
foxnews.com/politics/trump…
The deportations are about to increase massively.
And don’t forget this accompanying story.
“The U.S. government has added 50,000 employees since President Donald Trump took office, with most of the new hires concentrated at Immigration and Customs Enforcement, according to federal personnel chief Scott Kupor.”
“The expansion comes as the administration simultaneously moves to shrink the broader federal workforce by hundreds of thousands of positions.
Kupor told Reuters that ICE accounts for the "bulk" of new hires and described the shift as part of a broader restructuring effort. "It's about reshaping the workforce to focus on the priorities that we think are most important," he said. The administration expects to shed about 300,000 federal employees this year through layoffs and buyouts, including workers at the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Health and Human Services.”

All of this is HUGE WINNING and I’m not tired of it at all.

⚡️ BOOOOM The United States Delivers a Resounding Slap to Europe
In a surprising strategic move, the United States has taken over the entire production of a rare earth minerals mine in Brazil until 2030, cutting off the European Union, which had been negotiating for it for months
The European Commissioner for Industry is shocked:
"We were preparing for the visit to sign, but the Americans arrived with the money and bought everything."
The war for rare resources is heating up!
THURSDAY WIN REPORT - A massive new trove of critical minerals has been discovered in the Utah desert
- The US trade deficit drops to its lowest level since 2020 (also when Trump was President, I'm sure it's a coincidence though)
- US paychecks outpace inflation for the fifth straight quarter
- US rent prices drop for the fifth consecutive month
- President Trump signs legislation that overturns a bunch of Biden era land restrictions to unlock US mining potential and lower energy costs
- the US sanctions more of Maduro's family members
- President Trump signs an EO to ensure a national policy framework for AI. I know some people don't consider this a win. You can fight it out in the comments with the people who do
President Trump also issued a pardon to Tina Peters - that doesn't mean she's free since she is in jail on state charges, but apparently he's going to try to get the Supreme Court to determine if he has the authority to pardon state convictions. At least he's trying to get her out.
President Trump also hosted the congressional ball tonight, here's a picture of him and FLOTUS looking extra spiffy
BREAKING: Per multiple border law enforcement sources, a U.S. Border Patrol agent shot & killed a suspected cartel smuggler after he came across the river & allegedly assaulted the agent in Starr County, TX, (Rio Grande Valley) this afternoon. I’m told it happened in Border Patrol’s Rio Grande City area of operation, and the agent is okay.
This is one of the most dangerous areas of the border for cartel activity. We spent many days there during the border crisis. It’s where we repeatedly saw suspected cartel gunmen caught on trail cameras moving through the brush, Border Patrol vehicles hit by gunfire, gunmen standing in broad daylight on the other side of the river, tracer rounds from a M240 machine gun being fired above a TX National Guard post, and shootouts and grenade battles on the Mexican side of the river between different cartel factions.
So much winning for Trump
