Democrats/socialists/communist (D/s/cs) remain shell-shocked by Donald Trump. Who could have imagined a politician keeping campaign promises? Worse, who could have imagined a politician really and truly dismantling the Deep State and returning power on loan from the people to the people rather than just slinging soaring rhetoric?
...
The D/s/cs’s response, other than lawfare that they know they’re going to lose, has been to try to construct narratives:
...
Musk’s DOGE operatives are just children! Your point? Many of the most consequential people in history, including American history, have been in their teens and early 20s. Age isn’t the real complaint; it’s their effectiveness in exposing fraud and other crimes. On July 4, 1776, the Marquis de Lafayette was 18, so was James Monroe. Alexander Hamilton was 21 and James Madison was 25.
Trump can’t let them have access to executive branch data! Yes, he can. Article II of the Constitution vests all executive authority in the President. He can loan some of that authority to his appointees to do the work of the Executive branch.
...
Trump is staging a coup! Against himself? Against Americans who elected him via the Electoral College and the popular vote despite massive vote fraud? He’s reducing the size and power of government, which increases individual wealth and liberty. Every bit of power government has is on loan from the people on condition of good behavior. He’s not taking power from the people; he’s giving it back.
...
Trump can’t refuse to spend money Congress wants to spend! This one is a bit trickier. Thanks to DOGE, we’re discovering billions Congress didn’t allocate flying off to break immigration law, funding terrorists and being stolen for all manner of illegal purposes presumably not intended by Congress.

It’s my understanding that, in 1776, Marquis de Lafayette had not yet directly participated in the American Revolution. At the time, Lafayette was still in France—a 19-year-old nobleman fired up by Enlightenment ideals like liberty, equality, and the American colonies’ defiance of British rule. But he hadn’t joined the fight just yet.
His big move came in 1777 when he famously defied both British agents and French authorities (who weren’t keen on him leaving), bought a ship with his own money, and sailed to America.
Arriving as a volunteer, Lafayette offered (like Musk) to fight without pay—an offer that impressed the Continental Congress and helped him secure a commission as a major general. He quickly became a trusted aide to George Washington and played a critical role in both military campaigns and diplomatic efforts, especially in persuading France to increase its support for the American cause.
From the Battle of Brandywine, where he was wounded, to his key role at Yorktown, Lafayette helped shape the Revolution’s outcome. His influence wasn’t limited to the battlefield—his lobbying in France helped secure troops, ships, and financial aid, making him a pivotal figure in America’s fight for independence.
Unless congress makes these changes permanent the first democrats/rino elected to the presidency will simply cancel all Trumps executive orders.
Lafayette was 22 when he drafted the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. It is one of the most important documents in the history of Western Civilization.
Ultimately, D/s/cs, and surely some Republicans, fear future DOGE revelations, which, if investigated and prosecuted by an honest FBI and DOJ have the very real potential to limit them to only their enumerated powers and to put them behind bars

This (in my opinion) is the key. Politicians from all parties have been ignoring the people while enriching their friends and themselves.
As long as they controlled everything they were safe. They now control nothing!
To me, the money they have stole is not the real problem. The real problem is how them have been manipulating Americans to hate and mistrust each other (divide and conquer). I would be so bold as to say every problem we have today as a nation have been created by politicians.
We are still in the first act of this “play’. President Trump is just setting things up before moving to the next act which I suspect full disclosure of the evil that has been done in our name. Act 3, the final, will be win justice is done.
It should be a priority in congress right now while the republicans have slim majorities but there isn't much chance that they will actually do it
A few things you can say about the democrats:
It's less than 2 years to the mid-term elections and democrats will pull out all the stops and use every dirty trick they know to win majorities in the house and senate.
If they do gain majorities there's no chance at all of making any of Trumps EO changes permanent.
But they were using the money they stole and misdirected to maintain their power (and stay in office) so that they could create such hatred and mistrust by funding DEI and other Marxist movements.
For example, take the $2 billion given to Stacey Abrams' charity/NGO. That money would be used by Abrams to advance her voter fraud operation.
He was a great man. Almost made up for DR Warren getting killed at Bunker Hill.
I think he is buried in the US?
you have a business, you hire an outside company to review it and they find out there is employees stealing, and you immediately turn and attack the company you hired.
This is what they are all about. Those protesting and screaming are on the dole or getting kickbacks and the heat is coming down upon them
The only thing that the democrats don’t fail at is fail.
It’s like turning on the light to see the rats run and no escape route.
HOW OLD WAS AUDIE MURPHY when he faked his age & joined the US military in WW 2???
IIRC—He is credited with 240 CONFIRMED enemy kills.
he was 16 or 17 i believe
