□ [“Media Elites Complain They’re Exhausted From Four Days of Trump Presidency"]

I guess I'll count this as Trump's accomplishment of the day.  It's been so long since they had to deal with a real POTUS that they have no way to handle it.  He keeps doing things and they need to at least pretend to be covering it.  Otherwise their audience will look elsewhere, and that's just the people who hate Trump.  The Trump supporters will already look elsewhere and the media companies have to figure out what to do about that.

There are hints that at least some in the media are realizing that they're the bad guys, or at least their fellow Democrats are.  Bill Maher had a black guy from ESPN point out that Trump's actually doing what he said he was going to do.  He didn't even mention the work ethic, but the left is just whining about transgenders, not something that most people care about.  If there's a conspiracy to put Trump in the White House twice, I suspect it was about pointing out how useless the left is.

This also hurts the media companies and their corporate conglomerates.  They're supposed to impose the leftist 'narrative' and as we see here, their own people are "exhausted."  It's only been a week!  They're all well-paid and getting older.  Not as much at Trump, but still, how can they get through another four years of this?  They also have to worry about being replaced, the individual reporters and the media companies that have to compete with the internet, all to give the public news about Trump.

□ [“Trump Fires 17 Inspectors General in Friday Night Purge"]

I love the idea in theory, reducing government is fine.  But one problem with so many mass firings is that it just looks like a purge.  There's no evidence for why they need to be fired and face it, even if we see the evidence there'd be reason to not trust it.  There's simply no way to do these mass firings and look good.

Furthermore, apparently Congress passed a law in 2022 that there needed to be 30 days advance notice to Congress before these Inspectors General can be fired.  Now you may ask why the POTUS would need anything from Congress regarding firing his own executive branch subordinates.  That's a good question, detectives are still trying to find clues on that one, but it means Congress has an excuse to get in the way. which will just waste more time and energy.

All that aside, I do like the firings  We're even getting some detail about how *woke* they are, such as the Bureau of Prisons director trying to fund sex-changes for trans prisoners.  There are potential problems, some of these people might have relevant jobs that become needed before a replacement is put in, but otherwise this might be fun to watch.  We'll also have to be wary of what the enemy will do for revenge on this.

□ [“Massachusetts Governor Changes Her Mind About Deporting Criminal Illegals"]

She's not the one who got mugged by an illegal, it's just that ICE moved in and she decided that she wasn't *really* going to defend rapists and murderers.  It was just talk.  Safe to assume that ICE pointed to all the laws and regulations she was breaking if she went through with it so she said 'never mind.'  Good move but it won't make her look good to any real supporters she might have.

All the mayors and governors will go along with this.  Some of their subordinates might not, but it's one of things where they realize they can only stay in power if they enforce the law.  This is one of the reasons government exists.  Without it, they can be overthrown or ignored just as easily.

□ [“Boston-Area Church Leader Who Harbors Illegals Says They Will Not Comply with ICE"]

Here's an example of one of those subordinates, a female who does something with a church.  So of course she's fine with protecting rapists and murderers.  Just a guess, but it sounds like the left will have to rely on people they have in high religious positions.  Pope Francis has already spoken out about how he opposes Trump treating invaders the way the Vatican treats invaders.

I won't speculate how the religious aspect will affect things.  I don't follow that, but neither does most of the left.  They'll probably get some people who can give speeches but no clue how that'll work.  Religion isn't something that can be defined as easily as politics or media.

□ [“CIA Now Admits They Think Covid Came From a Lab Leak"]

We already knew that.  I know a lot of people still think it was a real deadly virus.  They also ignore that it doesn't do anything if you aren't old, fat *and* unhealthy.  Just one or two of those isn't enough, but this was their excuse to push a poison vaccine.  So now we'll see if anybody changes their minds now.  Probably nobody, the believers all voted against Trump.

There's also the fact that this comes from the CIA.  I don't care if Trump is officially in charge, no one's going to trust them anyway, even those of us who already know covid was a bioweapon.  So this isn't as good a development as it might seem.  Don't know who or what the CIA has influence over, but that's why they're the CIA.

It's even worse because their job is to basically work with America's enemies, so we have no way to see any difference between them.  I do have a theory that they're actually very pro-American and this was all a set-up, but even if I'm 100% right, there will never be any proof.  Then there's the fact that I might not be 100% right.

But this admission would probably explain Biden's last-minute pardon for Fauci.  He's supposed to have not committed any crimes, so a pardon is worthless.  The Supreme Court has even ruled that it's an admission of guilt.  Furthermore, Congress is trying to get him to testify and he'll be in big trouble if he lies now.  The pardon removes the 5th amendment protection.  The CIA would also provide a lot more info to Congress so they can ask the right questions.
