□ [“U.S.A.-Russia Peace Deal Demands Ukraine Hold New Election"]

And all the Ukraine supporters are horrified at the idea of having icky elections.  Only bad people have elections.  Like Trump, you wanna be like Trump?  Heck no!  Zelensky didn't ban opposing political parties because he wanted elections!

I'm being a bit sarcastic, but Zelensky's not giving any impression that he wants actual peace from these talks which have started.  Trump and Putin aren't there, they've sent their people to handle things, and Ukraine isn't involved because the war wasn't really about them.  But Zelensky's juts making demands to the extent he has anything to say.

That's just senseless, what's he going to do, demand peace?  Turn to Europe?  End martial law?  If the war keeps going, he stays in power, why would he give that up?  Meanwhile Europe is just talking, they're not going to actually do anything.  Their elites get to have meetings about what the discussion at the next meeting will be, that's their contribution.

Trump could just say he's bringing all the troops home from Europe, that would make a big difference.  I'm sure he won't actually do that but he's Trump, he likes making these big threats which have nothing to do with the results he's aiming for.  If the EU is going to keep demanding more war with Russia, they should actually be able to handle it themselves and not rely on Americans, which is essentially what they're doing to Ukraine.  They'd better fix that but they're not even close to discussing something that sensitive.  Just keep the war going, that's what they're paid for.

□ [“DOGE Reveals $4.7 Trillion of Taxpayer Money is Untraceable"]

Treasury payments had an identification code to identify their budget line item, the Treasury Access Symbol.  Filling that out was voluntary and over $4.7 trillion recipients didn't bother.  It's not stated what the timeline was, but if it was an equal number every single year of our country's existence, that's about $18.8 billion untraceable taxpayer money every single year since 1776.  And nobody bothered to mention it, much less do anything about it.

Last week, it was discovered that $2.7 trillion was lost in fraudulent oversees payments of Medicare and Medicaid.  Right there a large chunk of national debt has been identified and could have been prevented if the government wasn't so corrupt.  These discoveries don't solve anything but they at least identify some of the problem.

They're still finding more of this than anybody can even keep track of.  $21 million for “Voter Turnout in India” which India's government says they don't appreciate.  Many millions more were sent for similar leftist reasons to Moldova, Prague. Bangladesh, Nepal, Mali, Serbia, Mozambique, Cambodia, Southern Africa, Kosovo Roma, Ashkali, Egypt and Liberia.  [Just copy-and-pasting from the list so some of these aren't specific countries]

There's still more.  "Misplaced" money from Department of Housing and Urban Development for $1.9 billion.  25 million people over 100 years old still getting Social Security checks.  And the left ignores this.  The media ignores this.  Congress ignores this.  Nobody's making a point of showing that this money was correctly spent and here's the proof.  They're all behaving like swindlers and frauds who are trying to delay from getting caught.

DOGE says they're going to go through the budget and spending line-by-line.  Wouldn't it be better if Democrats actually took it seriously?  That might help them a bit before it gets too late for anything to help.  For that matter, how many of them are getting ready to turn traitor on the others?

□ [“Trump Goes Scorched Earth, Fires All 'Biden Era' US Attorneys"]

Makes you wonder how long until he goes after Obama appointees, or many-if-not-most of his own appointees from the last term.  Five years ago, he appointed the Postmaster General who decided just today it was time to resign.  I'm fine with the purge, getting rid of government employees and leftists, but I must point out that we're not really getting any evidence or reason for the firings.  Trump says the DoJ is politicized, that's why.  Like he's going to change things?

Bill Clinton fired all 93 US Attorneys as soon as he took office and no leftist complains about that, so obviously there's precedent.  As I said, I'm not complaining about the firings themselves, just that we're not getting any reason for them.  If they pushed the *woke* agenda or went to P. Diddy parties or something, that would make sense and probably get even more positive publicity.

This is also part of the conflict going on through the judicial system.  I don't pay much attention, but there are judges who defend Trump's right to fire people or insist the people he fired be reinstated.  Just today, a judge stated DOGE has authority to audit the Department of Education.  They've probably already started going through the Defense Department.

Now that I think about it, they must have gone through about half the executive departments by now.  They won't have gotten to everything but most of the federal government should have been audited within the next few weeks.  The courts will still be battling, probably, unless the Supreme Court makes a decision.  Then it's up to Congress to decide what to do about this.

□ [“Has Trump Exhausted the Left?"]

I hope so, but probably not.  They are quickly getting worn out which is nice to see.  I think their problem is more about confusion than literal exhaustion.  The last Star Wars failure was supposed to hold them over until it was time for the current Captain America failure which is supposed to last until next month's live-action Snow White failure.  But none of those are working so what other escapism can they turn to?

I saw a recent post on a leftist website where people were asking why Obama, Clinton and Harris weren't speaking publicly, using their influence to fight Trump.  That's not a bad question - some of them even noticed Biden wasn't included on the list - but it demonstrates the problem.  Bill and Obama don't live in the normal world with the peasants.  They know things which we can't see and they have no way to communicate without exposing their own fraudulence.

The fact that Harris was included on the list is even worse.  It's a legitimate question why she's not doing anything if she's such a competent leader who tried to save us from Trump, but, well, it's Harris.  She's still sending regular emails out to Democrats asking for a donation, not someone you can rely on in dark times like this.

Basically the left as a group is too confused to be exhausted at this point.  Their competent membership might be getting tired, but the others can still sit around and whine on the internet about how oppressed they are.  Trump has broken through walls they didn't even know about but were installed by the elite to keep their true agenda private.  As a group, the left doesn't know what to do, so as individuals they're all running their own way, which will start interfering with each other, human versions of the crabs in a bucket.

□ [“Former CNN host Jim Acosta calls on media to come together and boycott Trump administration"]

We could never be that lucky.  They don't even realize their own obsession.  For the last four years they gave Trump constant publicity.  He wasn't POTUS (officially) why were they so fixated?  Don't know but that's what got them into this.  They sure didn't give Biden that much attention.  There's only 24 hours in the day and they voluntarily gave that to Trump.  I'm certainly a bigger fan of him now than I was four years ago and a much bigger fan than I was eight years ago when it was just "anybody but Hillary."  Trump doesn't deserve all the credit, the media did that.

So now this guy is saying the media should all unite and keep the public ignorant of what the POTUS is doing.  If you want to know, don't follow our network!  Go somewhere else!  That's not a good plan.  I'm sure the media won't agree to this because they need the ratings, but I'm sure they'd want to go along with it.

Those on screen only have an image, which would explain why they're all leftists.  Don't know about the stage crew although it's unlikely that Trump supporters would be looking for those jobs, but who knows?  The management wants more of this and can't understand why they're losing their audience.
