    The Imprint ^ | Oct 2025 | Michael Fitzgerald
    Republicans in Congress enacting President Donald Trump’s agenda are on the verge of approving a sweeping tax-and-spending cuts package that creates a new, higher hurdle to receive food stamps for tens of thousands of former foster youth. Under the provision, those as young as 18 and living in poverty would have to prove they were employed, training or enrolled in school to be eligible for more than three months on the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP. In interviews late tonight, three former foster youth who are leading national voices for their peers — two of whom once relied...

    Crypto prices tumbled amid investor concerns over economic stability and escalating trade disputes. Bitcoin and Ethereum, the two major cryptocurrencies, crashed after United States President Donald Trump announced a 100% tariff on 'any and all critical software' import goods from China. The continuing trade tensions between the two countries were significantly heightened by this move. According to Reuters, Bitcoin had dropped 8.4% to £78,000 ($104,782) as of 21:20 GMT. Ethereum also had a 5.8% decline, settling at £2,700 ($3,637). XRP, DOGE and Ada fell around 19%, 27%, and 25% in the last 24 hours, respectively, Bloomberg reported.…..
  • Sen. Kennedy Just Exposed More Absurd Things Democrats Shut Down the Government For (What gives? Didn't Musk & Co, already shut these down)

    Kennedy didn’t hold back as he read aloud what Democrats are fighting to restore. “We found that under President Biden, they were spending $3 million for circumcisions and vasectomies in Zambia,” he said. “We took that out. The congresswoman says, ‘We’re gonna shut down government until you put that back in.’” And that was just the beginning. “We found $500,000 of American taxpayer money for electric buses in Rwanda...” “We found $3.6 million for pastry cooking classes and dance focus groups for male prostitutes in Haiti. I kid you not. I’m not making this up. It was in the budget...

  • Trump Seizes On Shutdown to Punish Political Foes

    The White House has cut or paused billions in funding to Democratic-run cities and states since the federal government came to a halt.President Trump has embarked on a legally dubious campaign to weaponize the federal budget during a contentious government shutdown, halting more than $27 billion in approved funding in a bid to punish Democratic-led cities and states. Rather than broker a legislative truce or seek to ameliorate the fallout of a costly fiscal stalemate, the president has leveraged the crisis to exact revenge on rivals, slash federal spending and pressure Democrats into accepting his political demands. Since the shutdown...

    President Donald Trump’s second term had already brought misery to the nation’s 2.1 million civilian federal workers: unprecedented mass layoffs, strict return-to-office requirements and more red tape regulating everything from travel to printer paper. Now, with the government shut down, 750,000 federal staffers have been furloughed and many others are working without pay, even as Trump and his top lieutenants vow to put more federal jobs on the chopping block. “When did we become the enemy?” said one National Institutes of Health employee who, like other workers interviewed for this article, spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of...

    During a panel discussion featuring world leaders and philanthropists in Manhattan on Thursday afternoon, Alex Soros said the $23 billion philanthropic organization he leads would not cave to pressure from President Trump. Mr. Soros, the son of the billionaire investor and Democratic megadonor George Soros, defiantly told attendees that it had done nothing wrong and would back away from its human rights work “over my dead body,” according to two people who attended the panel who spoke on the condition of anonymity because it was an invitation-only event. The remarks came in response to a question about a report in...

    In an era when most Americans struggle to understand why their $50 political donations barely make a dent, a sprawling network of tax-exempt organizations has built a political Death Star hiding in plain sight. Arabella Advisors, through its nonprofit subsidiaries, has constructed the most powerful political machine in American history—operating with billions in "dark money" while exploiting the very tax code everyday citizens fund. The following are 20 revelations exposing not just the scale of this operation, but the breathtaking cynicism with which it manipulates public opinion, election outcomes, and policy decisions while masquerading as charitable work. 1.

    What if I told you that cartels and other bad actors from around the world conspired to undermine the integrity of the health care system in the U.S. and came way too close to succeeding? If you didn’t hear about the bust of 324 people; the U.S.-based cartel shell medical supply companies; the pill mills pushing opioids; the doctors on the take; or how law enforcement captured many of the bad guys at the U.S. border and airports as they rushed to escape, that’s understandable. The feds revealed this potential $14.6 billion "depth charge" planted inside the Medicaid, Medicare, and...

    Hundreds of federal employees who were laid off following Elon Musk's cost-cutting measures through DOGE are being asked to go back to work. The employees were given until the end of the week to accept or decline reinstatement by the General Services Administration, which manages government workspaces. Anyone who accepts must report for work on Oct. 6 after what is being described as a seven-month paid vacation, during which the GSA has racked up high costs to stay in properties whose leases were slated for termination or were allowed to expire, reported The Associated Press. "Ultimately, the outcome was the...

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio is in New York for the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) this week, but on Tuesday morning, he took some time out to make the morning show rounds on several networks. He didn't shy away from promoting the Donald Trump administration's "America First" policies.AdvertisementOn ABC, George Stephanopoulos seemed obsessed with cuts to foreign aid, claiming they've led to deaths around the world. Rubio wasn't willing to play along with that tired narrative that I thought the left finally gave up on months ago. As the secretary has pointed out numerous times, USAID was a "dysfunctional...

    Video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7WJeqxuOfQ We have subversives in elected office and the State Department who are trying to cram as many people as they can into the U.S. Many of our large cities are already suffering from overpopulation. The U.S. passed the 300 million mark in 2000 and some demographers say our population will almost double by 2050 and, if immigration is not curtailed, exceed ONE BILLION before 2100. The last thing we need is more legal or illegal immigrants. If the American people don’t rise up and take action to get rid of the subversives who are trying to destabilize...

    PBS informed 34 staffers Thursday they were being laid off as part of a broader downsizing effort that's resulted in 100 jobs being cut in recent months. The cuts were triggered in part by the Trump administration’s rescission package, which slashed over $1 billion in federal funding for public broadcasting. "Due to the loss of federal funding, PBS eliminated close to 100 positions over the last several months, including 34 valued PBS staff members notified yesterday their employment is ending. In this unprecedented moment, we remain focused on what matters most: ensuring our member stations can deliver quality content and...

    President Trump has cut hundreds of thousands of jobs from the federal work force, disproportionately affecting Black employees.When President Trump started dismantling federal agencies and dismissing rank-and-file civil servants, Peggy Carr, the chief statistician at the Education Department, immediately started to make a calculation. She was the first Black person and the first woman to hold the prestigious post of commissioner of the National Center for Education Statistics. As a political appointee, she knew there was a risk of becoming a target. But her 35-career at the department spanned a half dozen administrations, including Mr. Trump’s first term, and she...

    The crumbling facade at the CDC is finally collapsing—and it took one of the world’s most credentialed voices in medicine to pull the curtain back. On Sunday, Dr. Robert Malone, a pioneer of mRNA vaccine technology, clinical researcher, and now a new member of the ACIP, shredded Biden’s radical “Pro-Gay Orgy Czar” Dr. Demetre Daskalakis in a fiery exchange over the collapse of credibility at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Malone posted bluntly on X about the wave of resignations rocking the CDC: “The real reason for the recent CDC resignations is that the ACIP Subcommittee on COVID...

    There are times when reading a list of projects funded by the United States federal government sounds more like parody than reality. The Department of Government Efficiency — unlike Congress, it seems — is still working hard every day to identify and eliminate waste and fraud from the federal government funded by our taxpayer dollars. And this week’s update included some profoundly idiotic programs and grants that were, until now, recipients of our hard-earned cash. DOGE normally releases a contracts update on X on Fridays highlighting some of the stupidest agency contracts that it has discovered in the last week,...
