🚨There it is folks… this is treason..
Ex-Border Chief Aaron Heitke said he was Ordered to Hide Illegal Aliens from the Media and Cover up the Border Disaster by the Biden/Harris Administration
▪️“Special Interests Aliens” (SIAs) and “Known and Suspected Terrorists”. He was ordered by the Biden/Harris administration to cover it up and hide the data on the terror encounters.
▪️ In San Diego, CA alone, two flights a week were dedicated to flying Illegal aliens into Texas, with each flight costing $150,000. 🤯
▪️Fentanyl into the US has skyrocketed, this too was covered up.
—— a single pill under the Biden/Harris admin went from $10 to $0.25 cents because of the sheer volume pooring through.
▪️ Large sections of the border have no agents whatsoever for weeks and months at a time.
▪️ We have no idea who or what is coming through our country.
▪️Decreased detention space nationwide
▪️Funding for detention has been cut

Countries already offering concessions on tariffs to President Trump and it’s been like 3 days.
1. Vietnam - negotiating with the White House.
2. India - officials are exploring the possibility of reducing or eliminating tariffs on certain US imports increasing purchases on American goods.
3. Israel - agreed to scrap all of its tariffs on US imports.
4. 27 EU countries- have proposed lowering car, tariffs and increasing purchases of US military equipment.
5. Japan - they would like to negotiate, and they would like to increase imports of the US LNG and investments in artificial intelligence.
6. South Korea - and they would like to deliver her strategic sectors like semi conductors in order to come to a better agreement.
7. Thailand - they are planning to increase imports from the United States and reduced tariffs on American products to address the trade imbalance.

Beautiful Exit! thsnks

There’s now some muttering re: Trumps golfing
We are reminded. Biden left almost every week end often early on Friday for the beach in Delaware.
Virtually every day he called an early lid
He did nothing observable that was productive for the republic
Of course lots of nastiness occurred by someone feigning authority
What is in the icing on a pop tart so that it doesn’t melt when it’s in a toaster? Is it some kind of plastic? Perhaps a popTart is an extreme example of an ultra processed food that no one should be eating.
Anti-Trump “protester” struggles to explain the meaning behind his sign, then pulls out a paper with anti-Trump talking points that were handed to him along with the sign by protest organizers.

Prior to the Legislative Reorganization Act (LRA) of 1970, the number of registered lobbyists in Washington, DC, grew from between 200-400 in the late 1960s to approximately 13,070 by 2024!
x.com/RoleighMartin/…
If you look at the rapid rise of our nation’s debt, it was on a near-flatline (relative to the size of our economy) until the early 1970s when it spiked upward and has gotten worse ever since.
I downloaded from the US Fiscal Treasury Data of the Historical Debt Outstanding into a spreadsheet and looked at the data since 1/1/1790. 80 times since 1790 through 1957, those adults in Congress passed a budget surplus that survived the full year of the budget and entering into the next year, where the nation recorded a lower outstanding debt. Congress has not done this once since 1957.
In the 20th century, up until 1957, Congress reduced the nation’s prior year debt by an average of 3.53% 17 times!
To reduce the fiscal year 2024 debt by 3.53% (that early 20th century average surplus amount), government spending needs to be reduced by $3.154 Trillion!
In the 19th century, Congress reduced the nation’s prior year debt by an average of 12.21% 59 times! The normal Congress in the 19thcentury was reducing the nation’s debt when they held a year-long session of Congress!
Note, some readers, including Grok, are under the mistaken belief that under Clinton, the national debt was reduced around 2001.
It wasn’t and even though in political BS terminology the budget was balanced (it wasn’t in any private sector accounting framework), Grok explains its own confusion (blame it on xAI’s refusal to let Grok update its knowledge base during conversations) and admits 1957 was the last year Congress reduced the national debt. The X Article gives the link to that Grok conversation.
The evidence that the 1970 LRA act is hugely responsible is overwhelming.
In a conversation with X’s AI, Grok, of all the “audits” conducted by outside research firms on Congressional failure, one research organization, privately funded, meets the “Occam’s Razor” elegance of providing a Root Cause Analysis.
Occam’s Razor (also spelled Ockham’s Razor) is a heuristic or philosophical principle. Named after the 14th-century English philosopher William of Ockham, it states that among competing hypotheses or explanations, the one with the fewest assumptions or the simplest explanation should be preferred, all else being equal.
Grok found only one Congressional “audit” research organization, which is the Congressional Research Institute, that has the elegance of Occam’s Razor and reveals the following features:
A. A Root Cause Analysis explains what happened exactly in the early 1970s to cause a graphically visible growth in the outstanding national debt.
B. It explains the sudden rapid growth of lobbyists from around 300 since the late 1960s to now over 13,000 per Statista as of 2024.
C. It explains the surprising expansion from 2,000 pages of legislation per year to now churning out more than 7,000 pages (as of 2019).
D. It explains why a budget that reduces the outstanding national debt has not happened.
E. It explains why the growth of the runaway debt is in a sharp “S” curve ascendency.
None of the presented alternative “audits” or “investigations of Congress”, to me, approach an Occam Razor’s Root Cause Analysis of Congress.
The best research is that done by the Congressional Research Institute, which is privately funded. Their landmark 2019 report is reviewed. It explains why Congress became controllable (captured) by external forces with the passage of the 1970 Legislative Reorganization Act.
Read this article to not only understand more about Congress, about when transparency is productive versus counter-productive, about lobbyists, how they use executive office agency regulators too (instead of approaching legislators directly), and how the current state of Grok hinders the spread of correct historical Information to users of Grok.

This is amazing testimony about the Biden administration’s treasonous assistance in the invasion of our country. I wonder why we never saw this testimony during the 2024 campaign.
Barack Obama reveals ‘deep deficit’ in Michelle Obama marriage
NBC News ^ | April 5, 2025 at 7:02 pm | Corinne Heller

Barack Obama is sharing rare insight into his marriage with Michelle Obama.
The former U.S. president says he has been spending more time doing fun things with his wife after his two back-to-back terms in the White House, which ended in 2017.
“I was in a deep deficit with my wife,” the Democratic leader told Hamilton College President Steven Tepper at an April 3 event that was part of the school’s Sacerdote Series, “so I have been trying to dig myself out of that hole by doing occasionally fun things.”
The former president went on to talk about his life at home with Michelle Obama and their children, Malia Obama, 26, and Sasha Obama, 23, while discussing times he has not been able to communicate as effectively as he wanted to. “First of all, I constantly lose arguments to my wife, my daughters,” he said. “They mock me and ridicule me at the dinner table.” …

As the most obese nation in the world, other than a few very small island nations, it is possible that no other country wants to buy our food , definitely not our ultra processed food.
