We Can't All Have USAID As a Sugar Daddy
Posted By: Imright, 2/6/2025 1:26:02 AM
I’m just going to get this off my chest: I’m not tired of winning. The second Trump presidency has filled the DC political elite with dread and terror as the Department of Government Efficiency, helmed by Elon Musk, is tearing through the capital, exposing the waste and fraud that’s entranced this city for generations. This initiative uncovered a total media scandal: the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) subsidized Politico, NPR, Reuters, and The New York Times – funneling millions of taxpayer dollars to the outlets. The government is quite a sugar daddy, and we’re proud not to have one.

WASHINGTON — President Trump announced Friday that he will soon sign an executive order ending the Biden administration’s initiative to ban plastic straws across the federal government.
“I will be signing an Executive Order next week ending the ridiculous Biden push for Paper Straws, which don’t work,” the president, 78, wrote on Truth Social.
“BACK TO PLASTIC!” (Photo) Trump appeared to be referring to former President Joe Biden’s July 2024 promise to “phase out” single-use plastics — including straws, cutlery and cups — in federal departments.
Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba visited the White House today, where the media was likely anxious over how the meeting went as President Trump races to re-establish American primacy in world affair after four years of the country being asleep at the wheel.

Tax season is coming up. My wife does our taxes, which through the close to 30 years I've been self-employed, has always been a complicated process. She is quite good at making sure we pay every penny we're required by law to pay - and not one penny more. That is, of course, what all good Americans should do; rendering unto Caesar has its limits.Every American taxpayer these days, though, has a few more reasons to smile - and on Friday, they gained 182 million more reasons, as the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has canceled another 62 contracts, saving all of us

Washington—President Trump said Friday that Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative will look at the Defense Department’s massive budget after making significant cuts at other federal agencies — most notably the US Agency for International Development (USAID) — while charging that critics of the effort “don’t love our country.”
“Pentagon, Education, just about everything. We’re going to go through everything,” Trump said at a joint White House press conference with visiting Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba.
“It was so bad, with what we just went through — with this horrible situation we just went through, and I guess 97% of the people have been dismissed,” Trump said,
It turns out that leftist billionaire George Soros was much more financially involved with the group controlling his radical prosecutors than originally analyzed.MRC Business’s landmark investigation, “Law & Dis-Order: How The Soros Machine Directs and Controls Prosecutors Across America to Implement His Leftist Agenda,” revealed how the Soros machine directs and controls the radical soft-on-crime prosecutors tearing apart the justice system across the country.
The findings were based on MRC obtaining 7,785 pages of internal communications and documents
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) joined a mob of dozens of House Democrats in harassing a Department of Education (DOE) employee who was tasked with blocking them from storming into the building on Friday.
In response to possible cuts to the DOE, around 30 Democrat members arrived at the department’s Washington, D.C. headquarters on Friday morning to demand a meeting with acting Sec. Denise L. Carter, but were stopped by a security staffer, Fox News reported. Dramatic footage captured by Newsmax cameras shows Waters, 86, yelling at the federal employee who was just doing his job:

In a bombshell revelation that could shake the foundations of American healthcare, Elon Musk, leading the charge under President Trump’s newly minted Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has uncovered what he describes as a staggering “$100B of taxpayer money” wasted by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
On Wednesday, Musk’s team, along with two senior veterans from the agency, has been meticulously reviewing the CMS’s payment and contracting systems, which are crucial for managing health insurance for approximately one in every four Americans, according to far-left USA Today.
“CMS has two senior Agency veterans – one focused on policy and one focused on operations –
In a decisive move to cleanse the swamp of bureaucratic resistance, President Donald Trump has officially fired Democrat Ellen Weintraub, the long-standing Commissioner and Chair of the U.S. Federal Election Commission (FEC).
Yet, in a display of blatant disrespect for the President’s authority, Weintraub has dug in her heels, refusing to vacate her position, claiming her dismissal is somehow illegal.
Weintraub was elected as chair last December 2024.
FEC commissioners are appointed to six-year terms by the president and confirmed by the Senate.
On Thursday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” host and Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow talked about President Trump’s speech at the Prayer Breakfast.
Marlow said, “[A]ll the good that’s happening in this country right now, of all these positive things that are happening, the cracking down on the illegal immigration, the restoring integrity to women’s sports, the prospect of getting the Panama Canal back, the prospect of eliminating some of this fentanyl that’s flowing into our country, all of these things…that DOGE is doing…none of this would have happened if that bullet had just been a fraction of an inch closer to the fat part of Trump’s skull…if that doesn’t bring you to religion,

Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) reintroduced a bill on Thursday that would permanently eliminate top diversity positions at the Department of Defense, Breitbart News has exclusively learned.
The Restoring Military Focus Act would permanently eliminate the Chief Diversity Officer and Senior Advisers for Diversity and Inclusion positions, which were established by the fiscal year 2021 National Defense Authorization Act in the wake of the George Floyd protests.While President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have ordered that diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) be banned from the military, Roy’s bill would codify it into law so it could not be reversed in the future under a new administration.
Last week, as we covered at the time, an excerpt for a new book was released detailing claims about former Vice President Kamala Harris and an interview with Joe Rogan that never came to be. The details from frustrated and entitled aides with the Democratic nominee's failed presidential campaign put the blame on Rogan as to why Harris never made it onto "The Joe Rogan Experience," while now President Donald Trump did. Rogan is now speaking out against such claims made in the book.

David Hogg, the new vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), has had enough of Elon Musk’s ceaseless efforts to drain the swamp in Washington, DC, and restore accountability to those who have stewardship of U.S. taxpayer dollars.
He took to social media on Friday to decry Musk and point to the man he wants to replace him. Step forward former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.
The DNC elected Hogg as vice chair this past weekend, lauding the 24-year-old as “one of the most compelling voices” of his generation.
On Thursday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump is not sophisticated enough in terms of the intelligence community to understand what is happening when they comply with his executive orders. Pelosi said, “We are very proud of Hakeem Jeffries, our leader; he has given us guidance on our priorities of what we’re here to fight for, but also how we counter the Trump administration with litigation in the courts, legislation on the floor of the House, as well as communication and mobilization at the grassroots level.
Former USAID Administrator Samantha Power, the architect of the “Responsibility to Protect” doctrine (R2P) traveled to CBS HQ in New York for a late-night television appearance with Stephen Colbert. The purpose of Power’s appearance was to defend the institutional interests of her former agency, as USAID comes under scrutiny for ridiculous spending and manipulation of foreign and domestic politics.
Mrs. Power does her very best Sally Stuthers impersonation as she claims the only purpose of USAID is to facilitate charity and life-saving public health in “underserved nations” around the world.
US President Donald Trump confirmed on Thursday that “billions of dollars have been stolen at USAID and other agencies.”
Trump added, “This could be the biggest scandal of them all, perhaps the biggest in history. Democrats can’t hide from this one. Too big, too dirty.”
President Trump is referring to the billions of dollars allocated by USAID that never made it to people in need. other resources from USAID made it to NGOs who were organizing the invasion of America.
Big if true, as they say.
The Trump administration is considering three potential areas for the absorption of refugee Gazans after President Donald Trump announced that the US plans to take over the Gaza Strip and relocate those currently there to rebuild the area, N12 reported on Wednesday.
According to the report, the areas being considered are Morocco, Puntland, and Somaliland.
The report noted that what these three countries share in common is a strong need for US support, as Somaliland and Puntland seek international recognition, and Morocco has an ongoing territorial dispute over Western Sahara.
Somaliland has been looking for recognition as an independent country.

Two members of the House of Representatives Ways and Means Committee decided to create more political theater over the Elon Musk/DOGE audit of the Department of the Treasury payments by crashing a private meeting between House Speaker Mike Johnson, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, and Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Jason Smith (R-MO).
Three guesses which party?
You do the math.
A pair of House Democrats barged into House Speaker Mike Johnson’s office at the Capitol on Wednesday demanding answers on why Elon Musk’s government efficiency team has access to taxpayers’ data.

On Saturday the U.S. Army released the name of the second pilot—reported to have been pilot in command—of the Blackhawk helicopter that collided with American Airlines flight 5342 over the Potomac River, killing 67 people. This was a marked departure from Army policy that states “Names, city, and state of deceased will be withheld until 24 hours after next of kin notification.” This was the standard process used to identify the other two members of the Army’s flight crew, Chief Warrant Officer Andrew Eaves, and Staff Sgt. Ryan O'Hara. It is the same process used to identify soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan—a process I followed as a military
Bishop Mariann Budde, who famously criticized Trump during an inaugural prayer service, has been found to have pocketed a staggering $53 million in taxpayer funds through her organization, Episcopal Migration Ministries (EMM).
This bombshell comes as no surprise to those who see through the sanctimonious veneer of left-wing religious leaders who preach compassion while filling their coffers with public money.
Bishop Budde, during an inaugural prayer service at Washington National Cathedral, implored President Trump to show compassion towards vulnerable groups, including illegal aliens and members of the LGBTQ community.

Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) suggested the House Oversight Committee consider bringing in therapy dogs to help Democrats cope during a hearing on Wednesday. And wouldn't you know it? Thursday's hearing featured some adorable pups.
Not strictly for the reasons one might think.
Mr. Crane, during a hearing on 'Rightsizing Government,' noticed that his Democrat colleagues had become a little verklempt over the idea that Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) team have been making efforts to slash government waste and fraud.
In fact, earlier in the hearing, the resistance party tried to catch GOP lawmakers off guard by calling for a vote to subpoena Musk.
