As expected, the lawsuits are quickly piling up as the regime tries to buy time to regroup after the initial attacks from the Trump administration. There are multiple cases involving the Treasury, all aimed at preventing Trump appointees from doing their jobs, at least without permission from the court. There is one case involving the FBI, where the judge is asked to stop the Justice Department from looking into J6 cases. There is at least one case challenging the buyout system.
All these cases have been launched by activists trying to halt the Trump agenda, but they all have something important in common. They revolve around a set of core questions about these executive agencies. Who controls these agencies, by what means do they control them and by whose authority? The activists are challenging the Trump admin on the claim that these are independent agencies. They do not report to the President, so he cannot take these actions.
The trouble with that is there is nothing in the Constitution defining a fourth branch of government under which these agencies are organized. At best, it is a bit of make-believe Washington has indulged since Nixon. The mythology of Watergate says Nixon used these agencies to terrorize his political opponents, so he was driven from the temple of the people. Ever since, permanent Washington has waved around the bloody shirt whenever they did not like what a President was doing.
There is something more important behind this. Watergate was the triumph of the managerial class over the political class. For fifty years, an unelected and unaccountable class of experts has been left to run the administrative state, only indulging the President when it comes to appointing agency heads. In most cases, the appointees were from the managerial elite. These people took turns circulating between government and the Blob.
In his first three weeks, Trump has launched a big arrow offensive on this system and the underlying logic of it. Once these cases get to Supreme Court, administration lawyers will point out that there is no fourth branch of government and that these agencies are part of the executive. While Congress maintains the power of the purse, it does not run these agencies. That is left to the executive branch, which means the President and whomever he appoints to do it.
This seems rather straight forward, but the courts are as corrupt as the rest of the managerial system, so there are plenty of judges who will issue crazy rulings to stop the Trump agenda. While the Supreme Court only has a few ideologically deranged judges, it may not be eager to get involved. This is fundamentally a political dispute, and the court prefers to stay out of those. At the minimum, it may wait until they can choose a clean case to make a clean ruling.
The people filing these suits seem to be banking on the courts dragging this out and never getting to a final decision. They think if they drag it out and make it an issue in the midterms, they can win the House and Senate, then impeach Trump. You can already see hints of this in their rhetoric. While this may sound insane, given the public response thus far, these people live in a bubble. That and they have no other options, given what Trump is doing.
Team Trump seems to be prepared for this. In fact, part of the overall reform agenda is to get one of these cases in front of the Supreme Court to argue for the unitary executive theory, which says the President of the United States has sole authority over the executive branch. Even if the Court rules that Congress plays a role in how these agencies are administered, it will be a massive win. It means the administrative state returns to the control of the political class.
Why is this important?
For the last fifty years, these agencies, along with the media, the academy and the vast network of not-for-profits has operated independent of the President. Further, they have used their capture of the regulatory mechanism and the political finance system to control both political parties, thus controlling the legislative branch. USAID used its billions, in part, to control more billions in the budgets of the agencies, which it directed into its political projects, foreign and domestic.
The reason elections have had no impact on public policy is that the people making public policy were not subject to the voters. The political system became a theater to keep the people distracted. It is why the politicians have become increasingly frivolous and absurd. When Congressman and Senators are furniture, props in the theater of democracy, they tend to be theater kids. No serious person wants to subject himself to the humiliation rituals required of elected office.
The hammer blow delivered to USAID was aimed at shattering the financial structure of the Blob by removing the mechanism the Blob used to circulate money. If they are no longer underwriting the vast network of non-for-profits and regime media outlets, those entities will struggle to control the discourse. The DOGE boys examining every disbursements from Treasury is about starving the Blob of money. The restructuring of the agencies removes their power over the political class.
The reason the economic elite is backing this is because they see that the Blob is threatening their interests. It is out of control. When a girl boss judge in Delaware can crater the state’s economic model, and threaten the country’s financial model, the system that makes her possible must be destroyed. A million girl bosses armed with taxpayer money have set fire to the country for the last decade. What we see now is an effort to put out the fire and eliminate the fire starters.
In the end, we are in one of those momentous times when the fundamental questions of every human society are in the balance. Who decides, by what means do they decide and by whose authority do they decide? The Constitution answers all these questions, but it has been ignored for at least fifty years. Trump wants to restore that old political order, while the Blob seeks to bury it forever. Every civil war and revolution have been fought over these questions, so the best is yet to come.

Trump didn’t waste the last 4 years, and it’s rather remarkable that a man of his age could switch directions so quickly and thoroughly. As others have said, the Left really screwed itself by forcing him out in 2020. After 4 years as President, the Left had Trump pretty much hogtied in a corner. If he could even see where he’d gone wrong, all the lawsuits and stonewalling from every direction were like an endless swarm of stinging insects, keeping him forever on the defensive and making it impossible to find a way out. If they’d allowed his electoral victory… Read more »
Biden’s rampant and self serving abuse of the pardon system paved the way. Miley? Biden Jr (for 10 years!?). Fauci? Liz. Cheney?
Everyone on the inner circle of future President’s teams will demand this as a condition of hiring. Banana republic.
It seems to me that preemptive pardons are very challengeable in court, and would likely be overturned. But why would a president bring such a challenge that limited his own power? Allowed to stand, we eventually get to a place where every president preemptively pardons his entire administration.
“But why would a president bring such a challenge that limited his own power? Allowed to stand, we eventually get to a place where every president preemptively pardons his entire administration.” You’ve answered your own question. Ever considered that there might be a President elected who thought past his own selfish interests, but rather for the “good of the country”? However, if you can’t conceive of such, then chalk such an action off too a President’s *selfish* interest in building a legacy for himself in future history books which posterity’s children will read. Washington is—and will be—forever known as the… Read more »
Compsci, this is a dissident website, not a pie eyed dreamer’s forum
No, this is a website where all reasonably stated opinion may be heard and commented upon—yours and mine. Because you disagree means nothing and certainly does not mean you are correct in your assumptions and mine should therefore not be read nor posted.
You have no more “facts” to support your original comment than I in my rebuttal. Deal with it…
The president can grant pardons, but not to himself.
Like our esteemed host likes to say, “Says who?”
The question is not whether he can do it, but whether anyone is willing to challenge it.
Yes they are, and the scope of the pardons could be another problem, since State level cases could still be brought, based on testimony at the Federal level…It’s a huge potential mess…
“It seems to me that preemptive pardons are very challengeable in court, and would likely be overturned.” If so, there’s a long list of them dated prior to January 21, 2025 that would be first in line for attention. The Democrats would have to deal with THAT mess as soon as they struck the blow at Trump, and their targets are a lot more important than some computer nerds prying into the account books. In any case, the point of such a stratagem is not necessarily to use it. It’s to stymie the lawfare gambit of the Left, and get… Read more »
“It seems to me that preemptive pardons are very challengeable in court, and would likely be overturned.” If so, there’s a long list of them dated prior to January 21, 2025 I must challenge that assertion. As I remembered, these type of pardons were rare so I used ChatGPT to confirm and identify: “Preemptive pardons”—grants of clemency issued before any formal charges or convictions—are rare in U.S. history. Before President Biden’s recent actions, only a few notable instances had occurred: President Gerald Ford (1974): Ford granted a “full, free, and absolute pardon” to former President Richard Nixon for any crimes… Read more »
It’s the Biden pardons I was referring to.
With Biden’s precedent set, Trump can crank out pardons as fast as they crank out indictments. It’s a beautiful thing.
As far as I can tell Obama and Biden broke any self set rules around Presidential power. Trump is just following precedent.
Definitely. The difference is that Obama and Biden had the MSM to back them up and repress the “call to arms” such illegal actions ordinarily would require.
As I said before, the enemy sets the “rules of engagement”. I do not blame Trump for using them in turn. I believe it is a recurring theme with Z-man that one leaves one’s (antiquated) virtues at the door to the arena when entering for battle. Winners may retrieve them and revisit/revise them as necessary.
Indeed, many of us have realized that the Democrats shot themselves in the foot by stealing 2020, and even more so by attempting to assassinate Trump…There are now accusations that Pennsylvania’s Governor Shapiro was involved in the first attempt…The Democrats would also have been well advised to eschew the lawfare attacks, and the ridiculous raid on Mar del Lago, with the fBI going through Melania’s underware..But apparently they can’t help themselves…feminism causes politicians to act solely on emotion, no matter the consequences,,,,
They’ve already shot the patsy, so it would be nice if we could at least get at some of the lower-level conspirators. It would be noteworthy if a governor or some such official were to be offed in another “robbery gone bad.” Didn’t watch, but heard the network donated time for a slickly-produced Super Bowl ad extolling the virtues of the Secret Service. Considering that agency’s proximity to the Butler event, I’m not too surprised they’d run with that.
Did they really shoot him? I’m not convinced the pictures I saw of some supposedly dead guy were the same guy as the “Crooks” in the Blackrock commercial
The FBI raid was an assassination attempt, too. “Trump & Brexit” made every Western government become conscious of itself as the enemy of its people. The long train of abuses and usurpations that followed was only kind of crazy, some acceleration of The Plan (all the plans). But rolling on Mar-a-Lago was psychotic, a full-on chimpout of the whole world regime—who all, from king to intern, knew it was coming and what it signified: We kill you all, starting with him. And they fucked it up. All the weirdness since then, the directionless mess of contradictory moves back and forth… Read more »
pyrrhus: Pennsylvania’s Governor (((Shapiro)))
Jeez, you guys. Get the story straight. Was Trump the Zionist stooge he was portrayed to be for the last 8 years or so, handing all the things on a platter for Israel, or was he so much a threat to jews he needed to be assassinated?
“For the last fifty years, these agencies, along with the media, the academy and the vast network of not-for-profits” have controlled “both political parties.”
The USAID revelations have been a victory for conspiracy theorists everywhere. I didn’t believe that a conspiracy involving thousands of people could be kept secret for very long.
Yet for 50 years USAID controlled both political parties and we only started speculating about a uniparty less than 10 years ago.
The existence of a vast conspiracy spanning decades and involving tens of thousands of people has been demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt.
The malefic behavior of USAID and ancillary organizations isn’t a conspiracy itself. Rather, it simply became the new governmental norm as America transitioned to AINO. However, Tradissident supposition that something like USAID et al existed and controlled the course of AINO was certainly a species of conspiracy theory. IMO, a conspiracy theory need not be predicated upon the existence of an actual conspiracy. It merely need posit a hypothesis that is radically opposed to the accepted norms of reality. In this latter respect, our theorizing falls under the conspiratorial rubric.
NGO’s started as a way to outsource the dirty work and eventually became in many ways the de facto government. If that is a conspiracy theory it also has the benefit of being true.
In China, the CCP requires that a certain percentage of NGO staffers be Party members. They understand the danger to the existing power structure that these extra-governmental bodies pose.
Yes. Some countries also expelled them.
LineInTheSand: The existence of a vast conspiracy spanning decades and involving tens of thousands of people has been demonstrated beyond a reasonable doubt. It all goes back to FDR granting (((Henry Morgenthau Jr))) carte blanche to run the entirety of FedGov Inc. By the time FDR finally gave up the ghost, Morgenthau’s spies were embedded in everything; especially in Military Intelligence. That’s how we got the assassinations of Patton & Forrestal; it was Morgenthau’s peeps doing the dirty work. “Wild Bill Donovan” was simply the shabbos goyische stooge who papered over Morgenthau’s shadow government. BTW, (((they))) ran the very same… Read more »
Kinda-sorta related: I loved how the Superbowl crowd cheered Trump but jeered what’s-her-face when they were on the JumboTron last night.
The serpentine cat lady tried to leverage her millions of cultists in league with the enemies of those fans so quelle surprise!
Since we live in an inauthentic era, one has to wonder how much of her support is real. I would say the same about the Pulitzer Prize-winning halftime performer.
Watching clips of the booing, I find it curious she wasn’t really done up and looked a bit pudgy. It makes one wonder if she already knew the outcome of the game and thus would not be featured in the coverage.
“Authenticity” enjoys an odd career in AINO. As you say, everything about this country is inauthentic, e.g., fake and ghey. But the faker and gheyer it gets, the more businessmen crow and preen over the ostensible authenticity of their product. You see this especially in the food/restaurant industry where everything from tacos to biscuits is billed as authentic “Mexican” or “country.”
A rhetorical offshoot of authenticity is “artisanal.” That partical board desk may have been assembled by robots in Chungking or slave labor in Shanghai, but by gawd it’s artisanal!
Users of “artisanal” and “sourced” should be sent to a road building project north of the Artic Circle. Naturally the road building equipment would be “artisanal.”
What a farce the Superbowl has become. Half time shows– It’s been bantus twerking, negroids rapping for many years in a row now with nary a White act in sight. Does the demographics in the stands reflect this? No, but the fans & grillers, paypigs that they are, will keep loyally watching hoping their Wakandan wins. Embarrassing…

Jay, I tossed my Talmudvision into the landfill about seven years ago. Haven’t watched any n!66erball ever since. I can’t fathom the psychological makeup of my former Normie Acquaintances who are busily wasting away the remainder of their lives in an attempt to absorb all the histrionic diarrhea being served up by the Talmudvision. The Talmudvision is a damned powerful tool for destroying entire civilizations. Just about exactly 80% of all Amurrikkkunz are v@xxinated; only about 20% remain purebl00ded. My guess is that the 20% purebl00ded are likely to be precisely the same folks who had long since banished the… Read more »

It seems to me that another thing going on with Trump lately is his complete sidelining of the feckless GOP cucks in Congress. He’s been giving lip service to working with them, but it seems as if he’s completely excluding them from his assault on the Blob. I see the cucks showing up occasionally on the news, but they’re always talking about “who-gives-a-s**t” stuff like continuing resolutions and debt ceilings. I don’t know if this is a conscious part of Trump’s plan, but it seems like he’s just going to let them play their little failure theater games unattended. When… Read more »
Great point. As mentioned in the OP, the offices they hold are largely symbolic at this point so there only concern is re-election. While undoubtedly some of their princesses are getting their beaks wet in the NGO sugar well, for the most part the Republican members represent places with little interest and even some hostility to the NGO ecosystem. Their cowardice/impotence works to Trump’s advantage here.
Trump has devised a sort of ersatz lime-item veto, something Reagan famously asked for but was turned down flat.
I feel like the line-item veto is a good thing because it would seem to permit the removal of poison-pills from otherwise routine and needed legislation.
That’s what much of the charade around Nixon was about. After his ouster, the 1974 Omnibus Budget Act stripped the Executive of his ability to veto specific items line by line; it was a major step in the exponential growth of the Blob.
p.s.- it also wasn’t Nixon who ‘took us off the gold standard’ in 1971; that would be Treasury Secretary John Connelly under him, the same guy sitting in the car (and wounded by the Magic Bullet) when JFK got shot.
if Trump is going to take these matters to the USSC, it needs to be done quickly. Going through multiple layers of judicial authority can take months and the whole project will lose steam. If it cannot be done quickly, Trump needs to ignore these rulings and proceed with his agenda. These judges have no authority to make such rulings and, more importantly, no power to enforce them. Give ’em the finger and press on!
Dutchboy-
I’ve come to the same conclusion.
That said, I think the entire concept of an impartial judiciary is broken.
Judge are human. There never has been or will be such a thing as a completely impartial human.
The closest human to that ideal is a benevolent despot who has so much wealth, power, and family that it would be nearly impossible to influence them.
I still have no idea how a judge who only has authority over his district somehow has authority over the nation’s President.
Well, these are the same dicks that gave themselves the authority to issue gag orders. Since a person is presumed innocent until the trial resolves, how can judges directly violate the First Amendment, saying a free citizen cannot talk about the fact that someone is accusing him of something?
‘Out of your jurisdiction. Order rejected.’
Precisely.
By all means, press on with great dispatch!
Exactly, Old Hickory style
Leave the commie filth drowning in a trail of their own tears.
This assault revealed that the system can bleed, and if it bleeds….
The system now bleeds according to the menstrual cycles of its leaders, if ya ask me…
Hahahaha…if you look at them, though, it’s been a long, long time since that inconvenience was part of their lives.
What was it Solzhenitsyn said, the lament in the camps, ‘if just one had booby tr…’ then the wives of the NKVD goons would have to wonder if THEIR men would come home that night.
Solzhenitsyn was a wonderful human by all accounts, but his dreams of chaotic revolution were misguided. He picked those up from the Soviets.

In the end Trump is going to have to go a little Pinochet on them. This or he will be outflanked.
He is already going a little Pinochet on them. Given the last 3 weeks, I would be shocked if he didn’t have plan for all the lawfare coming at him. Most of it is garbage, with judges clearly crowning themselves kings to hold court over Trump.
I believe he does have a plan—the SCOTUS. He’s hedging his bets on getting a decision out of them by simply issuing EO after EO and generating RO’s (and eventually ignoring them) in the lower courts. SCOTUS will be forced to decide on some of them—albeit, Z-man’s analysis is not without merit and evidence. The judicial system is loath to involve itself in politically sensitive matters. However the degeneration of the lawful function of government may be more than SCOTUS can bear. If the system fails, SCOTUS cannot avoid falling with it—one must choose sides.
Not choosing a side IS picking a side.
This too.
Let us hope his chopper pilots are not Jewish bulldaggers who got their training in the skies above the Potomac…
Elez’s re-hiring (with Vance and Trump backing him publicly), the resilience of Big Balls, South Africa, the PGA Gaza Open, even letting Oberführer Ye run wild for a week before re-leashing him…
The 4chan to policy pipeline is flowing. Everything points to Trump going full Old Hickory.
Just like telling people “I’m cool”, if you have to constantly tell everyone “I’m the ultimate executive authority”, you’re probably not.
“the ancient texts speak of one who saved the American Republic, one named “Big Balls””

4chan is bots, cops, and Indians pretending to fight each other and be white.
Apt analogy.
As always, it comes down to who-whom. These judges clearly see themselves as part of the liberal rules-based democratic order and are seeking to protect it. It’s exactly the same thing as when, say, a President enacts a program in clear defiance of Congress and then the next President, trying to shut it down, is not allowed to by the court. This is because this program (and I’m talking about DACA) clearly benefits the regime and the courts work to protect the regime. So, I expect a lot of tortured court opinions followed by cheering from the regime’s media apparatuses… Read more »
“Either the President is in charge of the Executive Branch or he’s not. If he is not, then we need to know who is, and this is something they don’t want to tell us and haven’t told us for a very long time.”
From the POV of the average American, this scenario is win/win. To be clear, I want to Trump to win. However, even if he loses, we know where Presidents now really stand compared to the Blob.
It would be clarifying to ask the deans of Harvard’s and Yale’s law schools if they sincerely believe that the Presidency can be checked by ex parte rulings out of New York districts.
They could straighten out their insane professoriats and end this mal-education with a single “Dean’s Declaration.”
It’s time to reign in the radicals, and their Alma Maters’d be a great place to start. This lawfare battle is really an intra-mural fight, and it properly belongs on campus. Take the battle to them, and leave no ground for them to go to.
The recent Chevron (6-3) decision suggests a majority may be in favor of clarifying these issues. The Progs wailed loudly after this decision, which limits the right of the Executive bureaucracy to interpret laws. Of course, now that the “shoe is on the other foot”, and Trump (at least nominally) controls the Executive branch, they are making convoluted arguments about limiting Executive power – the exact opposite of what they argued last year. So it’s all “who/whom” bullsh*t as usual. The Constitution is now toilet paper.
There is an interesting vice forming up. One jaw is the court curtailing of administrative power. Unless Congress explicitly gives an agency the authority to do something, they lack the authority to do it. Therefore, unless Congress bans incandescent bulbs, the DoE cannot do it, even though it is tasked with saving energy. The other jaw is the unitary executive. When Congress does give an agency authority to act, how it acts is up to the President. This means Congress gets into the business of very narrowly tailoring their authorizations to these agencies. The result is the administrative state being… Read more »
Right. But the “countermeasure” to this is that all the Experts just become lobbyists who draft the laws to their masters’ satisfaction. Their laws then get passed verbatim by the supine Congress whom they pay. This of course is already happening, but it will become standard for all laws now.
This is the exact opposite of the English Common Law tradition. We’re going to to have the Napoleonic Code at this rate. The size of shower heads and dishwasher pipes will be enshrined in laws passed by Congress……
Maybe, but even so, they would then work directly for the economic elites, rather than counter to them. That is a massive change relative to the last fifty years.
There is a limited market for lobbyists and political advisers, and it is far smaller than this NGO support system is/was. As Z pointed out in the OP, the blitzkrieg strategy has caught most of the participants flat-footed and scurrying around to try to find how to make mortgages and car payments. Real estate prices around Arlington are about to stabilize for the first time in decades. Many of those hit will migrate to places like Seattle to try to find a similar way to make ends meet.
Congress did ban them, didn’t it? I thought it was the Rs that gave us that.
If so, it was the Pelosi-Reid Congress that gave it the final stamp of approval. I picked up one of the final loads of old school bulbs at the last GE plant making incandescent light bulbs in Winchester, VA when the measure went through.
Is it? One of the lawsuits filed to stop Trump is based on the idea that it would be unconstitutional to expose the data of the people authorizing the payments.
To me, it’s pretty rich these communist lunatics suddenly care about the 4th Amendment.
The Constitution has been toilet paper since 1861. That said, Trump is more correct than the communist loonies who want the USSR again.
The President really was conceived of as a replaceable king, which is why the plebs were not supposed to elect him.
That is not their decision to make. If you learn nothing else from recent events – this should be the one you retain. You get what you tolerate. Trump is taking the dreaded step of actually starting to break the Left’s toys. Putting a stop to the BS and putting out the fires is all well and good… but as our Esteemed Blog Host notes – they absolutely MUST get rid of the fire starters. AND punish them. People have to see them being punished too. There are millions of recently red pilled normies and grillers headed your way, Dissidents.… Read more »
After watching this all unfold the last 3 weeks, it’s become pretty clear that Trump is the front man who is performing his role perfectly. He gets to be on camera, mock the silly reporters and signs the EOs. Perfect for him. He’s intelligent enough to keep his finger on the pulse of the people around him and make adjustments on the fly. The billionaires who made their deals with him leading up to the election have their guys behind the scenes doing much of the heavy lifting. The arrangement is also perfect for them because they don’t have to… Read more »
Going after the Pentagon will, if not win over, at least mollify much of the “center left” that is perplexed by all this, and convince them that Trump actually is a reformer. They have always thought of it as a right wing institution, and still do, in spite of the fact that it no longer is.
Even if they do manage to kill off the Blob the individual elements will manage to find new homes in foreign funding. Angiogenesis inhibitors at one time were supposed to be the Silver Bullet in cancer research. But the results were modest at best. The cancer cells were able to metastasize to find new locations in the body to continue their assault. There are plenty of countries in the world that will continue the assault against America through funding the woke plague. One of the main reasons the “civil rights” movement gained such traction during the Cold war was the… Read more »
Are those scary Russians and Chinese going to fund the Blob? Ridiculous.
Why is it so ridiculous? And what about Mexico? What about India, South Africa, Turkey, etc? In Europe, the UK, Germany, France?And what about our “Greatest Ally”? The beneficiaries of their funding may never be living large again on the US govt tit, but the most committed among them will find a way to survive.
Our greatest ally already pumps a ton of money into the system and, no, that won’t stop. As to the others, I doubt that they’d do much, but it’s an issue that should be addressed. Trump should ban foreign money. Even our greatest ally could deal with that buy simply using American Jews to funnel the money to wherever they want.
It’s not out of the question. Putin, for instance, endorsed Kamaltoe. Now whether did that because he actually supported her or because he knew endorsing Trump would harm Trump’s electoral chances is a matter for debate. However, anti-white Leftism is deadlier to any Western nation than ICBMs, so if you desire to undermine the BFE, you could do worse than fund the Left. Think of it as color revolution coming home to roost.
It is an interesting problem. Let’s say a million people were living off this economic model. Not all of them will be fired now that USAID is shuttered, but many have already been let go. This will accelerate. Where do these people go? There are only so many spots at the trough and the competition for them is about to get quite nasty. Look at what is happening with the “extremist” people in the media. They are all getting canned now, so where do they go? They will still exist on social media, but eventually, they need to get regular… Read more »
That’s the thing. These people have no private sector skills. There’s no market for writing reports on white nationalists or trans activism. Even the other jobs don’t have a private sector niche. Writing grant proposals requires skill but has limited appeal.
I also wonder how much impact the cutting off of funds will have on academia.
Regardless, will be interesting to see what happens to various neighborhoods in NoVa.
Neighborhoods in Northern Virginia where real estate is very expensive with big mortgage payments, along with what looks like a housing bubble that might soon pop.
well, trump’s NIH just said uni’s can’t have more than 15% of a grant’s funds, for overhead. they were routinely charging 60%. so i think there is at least a partial answer to your query…
Much remains to be seen here. Some observations from an old academic involved in “grantsmanship”. NIH is one of many Fed organs that fund research. For example, NSF was the agency we wrote most grants to. Then there is the military, as in DARPA. Second, it is implied that the overhead is some arbitrary number that is chosen by the university institution. Our university overhead was negotiated, and then approved yearly (by the Fed’s) and was between the Fed’s and the university, but not dependent upon any specific grant application, nor solely under the university’s arbitrary control. Third, the overhead… Read more »
I also wonder how much impact the cutting off of funds will have on academia.
It very well might be enormous. I had assumed many elite institutions had such plush endowments they were largely independent, but Harvard’s rapid dismissal* of Claudine Gay after Bill Ackman cut off donations over the Pali protests disabused me of that notion. Universities may suffer the biggest knock-on effects since they were intimately involved in the NGO patronage system and received a lot of sugar to employ certain folks and produce desired studies.
*She still gets $800k per annum to be black.
JD-
To your point about Harvard, Trump needs to suspend all federal dollars to universities for 90 or 180 days pending a detailed review.
Bleeding those communist hives of their easy fed cash would be a huge step towards reforming higher education.
FedGov grease funds pork. Remove the grease and the pork shrivels down to a lump of gristle. In other words, unis would have to retreat from their pasttime of being hard Left Club Med resorts, and focus instead on the original mission, which is educating kids who just graduated from high school. All the better if FedGov began auditing courses to uncover Leftist propaganda and tied restoration of funds to ceasing indoctrination.
Probably a pipe dream, but far less so than it appeared a couple of months ago.
There are two ways to look at our society’s ills. One is from the moral POV and the other is from the standpoint of efficiency. It’s no surprise that Musk’s minions are the Dept of Government Efficiency. It turns out that evaluating our problems from the moral or efficiency POV leads to the same prescriptions. Musk and the other Tech Bros are a bunch of Asperger cases who mostly don’t grok the moral side of the rot in this country. That said, turning them loose on the massive inefficiency of all of our society’s institutions will, in many cases, have… Read more »
Good points. The potential knock-on consequences from curtailing the grift could prove to be quite consequential.
What little market outside of the D.C. Metro area exists can be found in the Blue hives from whence many came: Austin, Portland, Seattle, Madison, and so forth. I expect many will try to land similar gigs there, which goes to the importance of drying up the local and state equivalents.
We chose our current location for numerous reasons; in addition to being 100 miles away from an interstate highway, we ensured we are also more than 100 miles away from any synagogue or hindu temple. Various ethnicities will always ensure ‘their people’ have a ‘safe space’ in a homogeneous community. That needs to be destroyed. No more Lakewood, New Jerseys or Chinatowns. They are the soil that shelters and breeds the seeds of White destruction.
The only thing I would add is distance from a military base also is important.
Yep. The Feds must only be the beginning.
“These people have no private sector skills”. Some of them do: project managers, experts in IT, data analysis and M & E, accountants, HR specialists
The others are trying to do a facelift to their cv, by their own words. So “1 year promoting diversity and inclusion in Uganda” becomes “1 year leading a project to improve the economic sector in Uganda and its economic relationship with USA”. After all, USA paid for everything. What other proof of international trade do you want? And what happens in Uganda, stays in Uganda so nobody needs to know
Among the street mobs, sure, they will be reduced to the disgruntled multitudes grumbling about their days of glory, grist for comedy material in Hollywood like the Great Lebowski. But the committed core element will remain intact unless they are hounded to the ends of the Earth. I doubt MAGA has the stomach for that.
The top tier elements in this corrupt enterprise need to be executed (I am serious this is not hyperbole). The second tier needs 20 to 30 years in Gitmo or an El Salvadoran prison. The 10’s of thousands of third tier minions need 5 to 10 years in the Federal pen. This is the only way to fix this problem.
I concur. I celebrate each head that rolls along with everyone else, but I don’t pretend it represents the end of the opposition. For each individual axed, there are tens of thousands of underlings and followers. There’s an army of new ‘girl bosses’ waiting in the wings (must send your princesses to college), along with non-White agitators. And for all the talk of Vance, AINO will be barely 50% White by 2030. I don’t care how many EOs Trump signs; demographics is destiny.
“Demographics is destiny” should be the tagline at the top of any website calling it self “dissident right affiliated”.
It is why even though I’m over the moon that Trump is starting to become the thing they always painted him to be, it won’t be NEARLY enough. It is why I’m posting this thought from one of the Whitest parts of the world remaining.
Until the ‘real’ roundups start. The kind that require boxcars and men of iron will, I’m not holding my breath on a true turnaround.
Exactly right. I’ll take these wins happily, but until these people are permanently removed things will continue to slide.
Vermin will always keep coming back; but if shutting down our enterprises is reduced to mere numbers, so can be theirs.
I wonder who is already short real estate in northern Virginia.
Ahh, to be a fly on the wall in the c-suite at Blackrock….
In other words, to be a fly in a suppurating colon.
The blitzkrieg element of this attack was significant. In addition to being a slush fund for UMC Karens, most members of the Blob nomenklatura who were needed for it to function were dependent on their weekly reward. As you mentioned in the main piece, mortgages and car payments suddenly ended and the ability to wait for a court decision is limited.
The court decision is about computer access. The money is already cut off and there’s not much the courts can do about that.
The access order included “payment systems” from the article I read. Computer access to angry and scared about to be ex-employees in and of itself is huge security risk, with people wanting to cover their tracks, steal data, and potentially scramble entire systems. God willing, saner heads have already laughed their behinds off, done nothing, and put in an emergency stay of the order. We’ll see if that garners the same headlines. The Karens themselves are still mostly on leave with pay, so they aren’t concerned about this month’s car payments yet. They are worried about covering their tracks and… Read more »
Were I Benevolent Dictator, all those bureaucrats would be plucking chickens for Tyson after I kicked out all the illegals. Tyson would be under new management, of course, because the CEO would be in the pen for hiring illegals.
I like the cut of your jib, matey.
Speaking of which, in addition to plucking chickens, I’d have them swabbing poop decks and manning crow’s nests in heavy swells. And if the scurvy knaves gave any guff, it’d be the ol’ heave-ho and a right proper keelhauling for the lot of ’em!
I refuse to buy Tysons products, but it’s damned difficult when the only places to buy food within 60 miles are Walmart, Harps, and a few small independent markets.
That far in the middle of nowhere, you have to have some local producers, don’t you? I know a half dozen within a few miles of me. And our local Amish country is only 90 minutes away.
Lots of locals that raise chicken and cows – but they all sell to the big corporations. I have been unable to source retail sold local meat. I do have one guy who offered to raise a cow for me, but I don’t use all the cuts and definitely need more freezer space. I tend to do my shopping (fresh produce and bread, etc.) once a week. I suppose I could drive a 4 hour round trip for more options, but I don’t want to spend the time or the gas.

These people are going to learn just how disastrous the de-industrialization of the USA is. Those-good paying jobs in industry and all the professions that depended on industry are gone. The government jobs that replaced them are going away too. It’s a lesson the working class learned already but now the keyboard jockeys will get the lesson.
It wasn’t all that long ago when these people were telling out-of-work dirt people to “learn to code!”
So I go into Tractor Supply for some antifreeze and a few 6×1 metric bolts when who is “manning” the cash register? Rachel Maddow!
Did she explain how that anti-freeze stops freezing dead in its tracks? “Your truck takes this anti-freeze and it cannot experience catastrophic failure! It stops there.”
Her “stripped bare but with some sort of a blazer” appearance on cable TV leaves me as empty as the office center parking lot on Sunday. I will say that she is the definition of deplorable.
“Where do these people go?” This is easy. Go to International Dev reddit group. They are enraged, depressed and looking for jobs in the non-humanitarian sector. This is called “pivoting”. Any job. Yes, normie jobs.
They also say that China can increase funding, but they won’t get close to USAID. China is interested in infrastructures and does not lke opacity with money. An era has finished abruptly.
What did they do before we found out what they were doing? That’s what they’ll do now. Some won’t, of course. A reorganization is a great chance to get rid of some jerk who annoys you. The crazy-eyed show tune singer Biden tried to put in charge of censorship, her job may actually be in danger (unless she’s somebody’s mistress). Taylor Lorenz—local repeater of propaganda and “doxx” fed to her by foreign intelligence—got fired from the Post for some Gaza thing, last we heard. Where is she now? On Patreon, being funded anonymously by the same spooks she was before.… Read more »
It’s what we need to be if we win, a family and a culture.
What foreign funding? A lot of the “foreign funding” is actually from USAID and passes hands 2 or 3 times before it arrives at some foreign rainmaker. I highly doubt Paris or the City of London is going to step in and fill the void, nor do I think they are even capable of doing it. Tokyo is more likely to start looking after itself and returning to the natural state of the Japanese people. And Moscow and Beijing certainly aren’t. It is possible that this incredible elite uniformity of thought and buy-in that we have seen since the end… Read more »
Certain “dissidents” will not believe that the US is the villain of the piece. It’s always those nefarious foreigners corrupting the good folk at USAID and State.
The convoluted theories they must have to explain the current situation where the King of England or the CCP is blackmailing Larry Ellison or Fink. If only the Brazilians would stop threatening the State Department then the those good christian folk working foreign policy could start promoting world peace.
Actually, I do believe that the US is the chief villain. “We hold these truths to be self-evident…” But stating the obvious that the source lies in our own origins proves my point that this is not going to be easy.
People forget that the USA began as a liberal, revolutionary state. The logic of the liberal revolution is the destruction of the natural hierarchies of society and their replacement with an artificial fake equality (fake because the enforcers of that equality are ruling and not equal to the ruled). It is Orwell’s jibe against revolutionaries: “All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.” The American revolutionaries ended up the same as the others: they did not end oppression, they became the oppressors.
Umm, or, we’ve been hijacked.
It takes massive amounts of public money to support these cancer cells, which will collapse very quickly once it is withdrawn. During the Cold War the communists were at a great disadvantage also on the propaganda and subversion fronts due to the wealth disparity, which persists to this day even with China. The individual people within the Blob are about as hostile to Russia and China as they are to their own citizens. Those individuals situated within the NGO’s might gravitate to conventional politics but they are distrusted and that sphere is demand driven. The NGO-created nomenklatura probably is done… Read more »
the Tech Bro wreckers also have shown a strategic acumen that is a little unsettling if they decide to use it against us.
Would you care to expand your thinking? It seems honest and productive output should be somewhat safe from de-funding as there is a real output/product to purchase.
CDBC, increased surveillance, etc.
Right O. The trucker strike in Canada shows that they have all the capacity they need to de-bank and de-platform already. The panopticon aspect of AI is the concerning aspect going forward.
The ability to instantly asses the acceptability of anyone on the current metric is a big problem. What was good yesterday is now verboten. The weaponization of technology may make the Luddites look rather prescient.
Marco Rubio made our host’s point in his Fox News interview while in El Salvador. He described USAID’s haughty refusal to participate in the Trump appointees’ attempt to audit paused programs and payments, as contrasted with the co-operation at State (Sadly I lack the skills to link.)
Rubio is a wholly owned subsidiary of Norman Braman so, yes, it looks like the owners have decided to unleash their politicians to remove their managers.
Musk just now on X/Twitter:
Funds were diverted from almost every part of the federal government to maximize the number of illegals in America.
There also appear to be significant funds siphoned from Social Security to pay for illegals.
It’s infuriating. We see so many elderly that worked their whole lives, to the detriment of their bodies many times, suffering and just getting by in an unrepaired house because they like to eat and have heat instead of home repairs. No live-in nurses and on-call 24/7 concierge doctors for them like these politicians and these NGO heads have that are paid for by the tax-payer in one way or the other. No fancy European vacation/’hip replacement’ for them, either. Then we have the veterans, of course. The homeless. So many Americans just suffering more and more every year and… Read more »
I just read this morning that Bill Clinton fired almost 400,000 federal workers during his 2 terms. This did almost nothing to stop the blob and was a temporary reduction of the swamp. The second they had an excuse to hiring hundreds of thousands of new workers, probably because of 911, the swamp came right back.
9/11 provided the excuse for the biggest growth of the Blob since the New Deal, with the added bonus that they got to use all the “anti-terrorist” bullshit against their domestic political enemies.
Remember how pissed off they were that 9/11 happened on W’s watch instead of Clinton’s or Gore’s, they were salivating at the opportunity but couldn’t take advantage of it until the Kenyan was installed.
W gave us the TSA and Muhammadan immigration X 10000. It doesn’t matter which branch of the uniparty is putatively in charge – the bureaucracy always grows.
dubya is what red-pilled a lot of former conservatives. They were ALL in for that smirking “christian” “cowboy” idiot and saw what the result was. They were played and finally realized it.
Speaking of which, I would dearly love to see the Patriot Act abolished. If that happened, I would be convinced that we are actually on a sane course back to a peaceful society and off our eighty-four year war kick.
And then shutter the TSA.
Yes! It’s all theater anyway and they get off on humiliating you or delaying you to increase the already stressful event of flying in the US.
Agree … not to mention TSA. Absolutely disgusting. All brought about by a heinous “attack” – it makes me want to go full Col.Kurtz

The turn-of-phrase Z used once was “gynocracy”. Thing is there is a strong anti-tranny streak in feminism, but due to it’s inherit contradictions (of only reaching conclusions via consensus) it is unable to address the issue. This has put them back on their heels as they like that the trannydom is being reined in, but they can’t bring themselves to thank Trump as that goes against the regime consensus, for now.
The fact that:
trannies > women
demonstrates that liberal women are not the ultimate power.
Those who forced us to accept trannies are more powerful than feminists. In my opinion, the goal of those with the most power is to dispossess traditional whites worldwide.
Those with the most power push feminism until feminism conflicts with their greater goals and then feminism loses.
You are right. Besides, no demographic is hated more than the AWFL.
Putting women in power was always about getting rid of the native power structure. Trannies are insane men. Even insane men have more natural authority than women. It just is.
Correct. And as I’ve noted before, the only reason rape isn’t classed as a hate crime is because doing so would result in even more Hutus in the slammer for long stretches, and Hutus are considerably higher on the Left’s victim totem pole than are dames. Also, Sassy Mammies enjoy far more cachet on the Left than blue-eyed Katelyns and Brittanees.
race > sex
“Conclusions via consensus” is an excellent point.
It is surely a gynocracy. Feminism foundered on the trans issue. Trans is a direct outgrowth of antinomian feminism, the old Victim Totempole. Trans is feminism’s bastard child. Girls and their parents wailed when men started dressing up and taking advantage of the totempole, as they’d done themselves for many decades. But they were fine the past half-century while females took over basically everything and kicked men out. Not even the Boy Scouts escaped. But suddenly, there’s a crisis! Trans men are stealing the medals of our princesses! lol Like yourself, I run on the Sammich Platform. Lots more sammiches… Read more »
DT is a womanizer and feminism makes womanizing easier, which is why Playboy magazine was a big backer of Women’s Lib.
Feminism Inc is the result of over a century of male abandonment of civilization, including a disinclination to support mothers, daughters, and even eventually their own wives in the late 20th century. That entrenchment in the West will not be undone in 2 weeks or 3 months or a year. There are ways to speed the transition up considerably (see: the Taliban), but that would be quite the shock. Orange Man is a transition figure, one I am deeply grateful for. He is the start of the unwinding of one heck of century for everyone, including all the men lost… Read more »
‘Feminism Inc is the result of over a century of male abandonment of civilization, including a disinclination to support mothers, daughters, and even eventually their own wives in the late 20th century.’
Spoken like a closet-feminist ‘conservative’.
“Spoken like a closet-feminist ‘conservative’.” Being serious about undoing feminism is about being ready to support your mother, wife and daughters, possibly until they (or you) die. The Taliban are willing to drive their women everywhere, because they are serious about undoing feminism. Yes the women are under control and out of public structures, but also yes, they have to drive them everywhere, too. On a personal level, for a responsible male, undoing feminism looks like a lot of work, which is boring and unfulfilling It’s no womanizing, less toys, boring jobs, and yes supporting less than perfect people.

He is the start of the unwinding of one heck of century for everyone Feminism began centuries ago, like the USA, a cancer which you don’t understand. We don’t need to unwind just the 20th century. That century didn’t happen to the USA. Rather, the USA happened to the world, then came the 20th century mostly because of her and what she made possible. So the authority clause of the Con must be discredited and abandoned. The egalitarian claptrap in the DoI must be discredited and abandoned. The Congress, the presidency, and the SCOTUS must go away. There must be… Read more »
Feminism as we know it appears roughly at the end of the 19th century. We don’t need to go much beyond there to find a society while not perfect, it was well ordered. It’s more than a century at this point, but century will do for the purposes of thinking about it.
I keep coming back to Vance. Trump is starting this attack, but the Blob can stall and, occasionally, thwart his efforts. Trump can weaken the Blob, but I doubt that he will be able to kill it in four years. If Vance can continue the fight, he could finish the job.
I suspect we may see a domino effect. Removing that $50 billion from the system is going to bankrupt a lot of operations that were used to capture tens of billion in other government revenue streams and tens of billions in private money. You can bet every large corporations is evaluating its giving in light of these revelations.
Agree. And I have wondered about the other non-govt donors. The Blob was, among other things, a protection racket. Sure, many corporations have become pretty woke, so some money will still flow, but others were just paying as a form of insurance. If Trump/Musk can weaken the Blob enough, that protection racket starts to lose a lot of its punch. Let’s say that half the money to the Blog came from the govt and half from private donors. If you cut off the govt money and, say, half of the private money, the Blob is severely weakened. Combine that with… Read more »
Pfizer plans to spend $11B on R&D this year. They spent $7.5 million on lobbying last year. I leave it to you to determine which dollars got the highest return on investment.
Lobbying for favorable treatment will always be with us. Paying off NGOs that then stir up trouble around the world, push gay agendas and promote crazy DAs in America is a different matter. I suspect Pfizer would be happy to leave out that second part.
Fair enough. But I’m not so sure. Foreign intrigue has been part of multinational corporate DNA for a long time. Any company relying on mineral rights or patent protection needs a friendly local government.
I personally know a Pfizer scientist that gave me the lowdown on the jab, in terms of risk of harmful effects per MRNA injected. When I tried to warn Normie friends and family, armed with first-person information … waste of breath.
Now some of them have regrets. Some stopped after 2 injections. Some three. Some are still true believers and one can go to any big drug store chain and see signs encouraging them to get their “flu and Covid vaccines…” Mostly complete silence, denial, blink eyes if subject is brought up.
My HMO is still urging parents to get their kids inoculated!
Disgusting!

In line with your anecdote, Vox Day made a recent post about a similar anecdote on the same topic.
His correct advice was to avoid going hard with normies, because it always backfires and generates resentment. That’s just how normies are wired.
This certainly seems the case. However, I tend to skirt around direct confrontation. Leave the individual out and talk some generalizations of latest findings in passing. Family is another matter however. There was no beating around the bush with son and grandchildren. He was plainly told to be a man and reject any proposal to jab the grandchildren. Point being made he’d be a pariah if the kids came by and spoke of the jab.
Don’t ever expect them to thank you for being right – because it simply proves how gullible and foolish they were. Anyone or anything that diminishes how highly people think of themselves becomes anathema.
Remember when the crazies were out there telling us that “silence is violence”? Good times.
Agree the rehire is a big deal, particularly for the Millennial/GenZ crowd. I remember back in my CA college days and first started seeing people being fired for stuff they were saying on socials. This was around 2009 or so, right around the time of the Bush/Obama transition. Everyone at school who had right leaning opinions got quiet real quick. It’s been great to see this kid get a second chance. Certainly a good step, but the overall framing is still way off. You’ve got hateful, anti-White bigots on X saying stuff much worse on a daily basis without repercussion.… Read more »

I’m glad he was rehired, but what I find ominous is that he got the most hate for saying he’d never marry outside of his race. That is the whole basis – along with immigration – for wholesale population replacement and White erasure. Yes, controlling the money spigot is vital, but the cultural rot is deep. Forcing the worst of the sexual degenerates out of the spotlight is fine, but Trump attended the big sportsbowl filled with nothing but black singing and gyrating and animalistic entertainment. This is what the world accepts as “American” culture. If those trillions in government… Read more »
I did’t know that kid had been rehired. Thanks for that info. Yes, it’s a major sign of a major shift.
If Wall Street has been paying protection, then incessant anti-white ad campaigns were part of that deal. But I have my doubts. Just like the professoriate, I believe the inmates of Wall Street truly do believe their own anti-white/negrophilic bull.
I hear from my sources inside the USAID money-sucking borg that they are scared and angry. That an understatement.
It is somewhat reassuring to know that since these tiny borglets cannot check their own oil, their replies are mainly those of the keyboard warrior, absent the easy money. They best be ‘learning to code’ the snotty fucks.
That’s why the injunction order on Friday about allowing back full access to USAID is the actual cybersecurity risk. Angry and scared about to be ex-employees are routinely cut off from access in big corporations because of the obvious security threat, sometime within an hour of notification, just depending.
If I were in charge of It security for the US government, I’d be insisting that lawyers get a Monday stay and that no further action would be taken until it was resolved in court. This IT security 101 here.
Ultimately, the US Treasury market gets a big vote if these DC knuckleheads want to keep spending. If DOGE succeeds, the US bond market can be saved. If not, it will eventually bust. Big Money people understand this and are talking about it up here.
I keep coming back to the fact that the same thing HAS to be happening at the state, local, county, school board, etc level.
And yes, of course, Trump has to have a reformation bench.
Yes, this fight needs to go down to the state and local level. This is where DeSantis could make himself nationally relevant again as could other GOP governors.
Local revolutionary political parties could use a common naming convention. Examples based on one such standard are
Alternative for Illinois
Alternative for Michigan
Alternative for Ontario
Alternative for Wisconsin
etc.
And then there’s always the good old guillotine.
If Vance can continue the fight, he could finish the job.
That means people would have to get over his wife and kids.
He won’t stop all immigration, especially from India, but on other matters, he seems ready to go. I’d suspect that he has a much deeper understanding of the Blob than Trump. I’ve said for a long time that Vance climbed the greasy ladder only to discover that he’d never have a place at the table. Same with that grifter Vivek. They decided to overturn the table rather than being high-paid house slaves. Does that mean that they’re necessarily on our side? No. But they’re definitely moving the ball down the field for many of the things that our side wants.… Read more »
Of course, if they can flip sides once, they can flip sides again.
No, he can’t. Vance is going directly after the Blob. He’s all in now. Again, not saying that he’s exactly on our side; he’s not. But he’s moving things in our general direction. That works for now.
It’s not about “getting over” his wife and kids. It’s recognizing that his wife and kids put him on team globalist by default, which the globalists themselves recognized. That’s why Vance was okay’d at all. If he had native wife and kids and spoke like he did, he would have been no where politically. That said I agree with Citizen of a Silly Country that it might be a help in this situation. If he’s ready to burn it all down too, recognizing what it is as an insider and outsider, then let’s not look the gift horse in the… Read more »
The pure race clowns simply do not understand humanity as it exists now and what it will become in the future. We have to live in the real world, not some Pitchfork Ben Tillman fantasy.
“as it exists now and what it will become in the future.” That Jewish dream of turning humanity into a light shade of brown for the sake of peace is a nightmare dished up straight from Hell. Race mixing produces children, thus it has the active will of God. However, I tend to think that God likes His actual diversity. That He in fact is not dreaming of a future where all of humanity has become the equivalent of a sad and boring gray play-dough blob from being overmixed. Thus I’m not losing sleep about that future either. Meanwhile on… Read more »
i think the DOGE whiz kids are just a cover for the real source of discovery; Peter Thiel and Palantir software. This technology was used in Iraq for similar purposes, to find networks of support for the Iraq regime’s resistance. Maybe it is the DOGE boys driving this software, but i think it is pretty much automatic at this point. Oh, and guess who was in the Paypal “mafia” when Thiel was the CEO/founder of Paypal? here’s a hint, his initials are E.M.
You bet, Musk wants to become High Lord Chamberlain of information and hoover it all up into X, the everything app.
As if, he’ll uncover info the government already has on us.
Skeery as that is, the question becomes:
Elonet or satanic pedophiles?
That Palantir guy Alex Karp – the apparent CEO – was making appearances on business shows this past year. He’s got the “absent-minded professor” hairdo. No doubt that he’s a brilliant person.
I expect the primary aims of the Trump administration’s “DOGE” effort to be successful because of who is backing it and the weight they carry. Remember who was sitting in the row behind the Trump family at the inauguration. The meme that this is all being done by Musk and his merry band of 20 year olds seems to be effective, but this effort is much larger than that and has the planning and organization of some very heavy hitters behind it. Some known, some not. Trump is just the front man, he couldn’t have organized this. The 20 year… Read more »
The blitzkrieg attack and the granular strategy is amazing. Some of the D.C. circuit judges are such hacks and morons they may order checks to be cut, and that would likely be the most expedited appeal ever since it would mean the order would be ignored and as such receive popular acclaim. Those who formulated this plan may be malign actors in some ways to be revealed in the future, but we still will benefit from what they are doing. These NGO’s were major players in bringing aliens to our shores to rape and murder, and bankrolled BLM. As an… Read more »
One thing is becoming clear…Trump is going to be forced to emulate Andrew Jackson, Abe Lincoln, FDR, Clinton and Biden in disregarding court decisions that interfere with his programs…The sooner he realizes that, the better…
Yes. This particular request for an emergency stay, filed last night, may work out in his favor, but that won’t solve the problem. This presidential term will see, is already seeing, the issue of judicial oversight of the executive branch being brought to a head that must be resolved, one way or the other.
To elaborate, we don’t know 100% for sure if SCOTUS is on Trump’s side, Chevron suggests that it may be, but who trusts Roberts, Barrett, and Kavanaugh? But even if SCOTUS sides with Trump, that won’t be the end of anything. The “blob” has many multiple lines of defense (on top of their routine day to day bureaucratic resistance). Going back to 2016, first was the FBI and their made up stories. Followed by the ridiculous peach mints over more made up nonsense. Then the plandemic and the stolen election, followed by the manufactured riot at the Capitol. Then lawfare.… Read more »
I don’t think Trump of his people have the intentions or the cajones, but an outright coup is needed to dissolve the fake govt and imprison the lot. Because “our democracy” has been a malicious hostile tyranny for decades and there is no good faith; they are enemies.
A king is needed to sweep it all aside so there are no more blocks to getting rid of govt waste/criminality/rackets; eliminating taxes, bringing in bitcoin, no more birthright citizenship, deporting, clearing away rotten city infrastructure, you name it. Bukele has the right idea.
Another question the USAID brouhaha brings up is, what happens to the migration and resettlement NGOs?
Noem as head of HomeSec can put the kibosh on Mayorkas’ border scheme and Mayorkas’ direct involvement in the Darien Gap migrant crossing facilities (as well as the proposed highway to cross the dangerous Gap.)
I’m also guessing that’s a large part of the Panama Canal play; Trump is telling Panama to play ball on the Gap (which included a seperate Chinese military camp), or we’ll firebomb the capitol like we did when Bush shut up his drug mule Noriega.
The courts need some kind of rapid response mechanism to put an end to these crazy judges. Trump should also specifically have that New York judge defunded.
Lawfare is playing dirty, and it will not be beaten by pussyfooting cucks kowtowing to the charade of fairplay. Declare a national emergency (epidemic of corruption that threatens the existential viability of the Federal Government) and then move ahead with what must be done despite any court order to the contrary. If the Left pisses and moans, ask “how many divisions does the Pope have?” Exposure is the ultimate vindication.
The thing about Nixon was, he only said in a off the cuff remark “If only I could use the IRS” inferring the ‘to go after his enemies’ part. That is, if only he could use government agents to go after government agents. It’s not like it was an official directive by the executive or anything.
That John Dean’s wife was running a prostitution ring out of the DNC headquarters across the street from the Watergate Hotel had nothing to do with it!
is there sort of a within-the-tribe civil war between the Norm Eisen/Harry Litman crew and the Bill Ackman/Miriam Adelson types.
There is a split between American/etc. Jews who think Israelis are rustic embarrassments who need to be left in the past they insist on inhabiting, and Jews who consider Israel an “outpost of the West” (hive of sex criminals) that must be preserved (with your money and death).
It’s interesting but not important. Whenever it really matters, Jews are for Jews, even the ones they hate.
Supposedly the judge heard the DOGE-blocking complaint ex parte.
That means no one from the Trump administration was present to even hear the complaint much less offer a rebuttal.
To my simple mind, that sounds like a total lack of representation. Such lack of representation makes it seem like this politically-motivated judgment can be ignored.
In the meantime, beneath this part of politics is another fault line. Con Inc. got the administration off to a very rough start in solving the other biggest problem related to the dispossessed but otherwise unidentifiable, “Class of people.”

I started reading the linked post – but after whole paragraphs of panegyrics to Chris rufo and his ‘trad’ family and Han wife, I had to stop. You cannot have a future for White children by encouraging White men to breed with Asian wives. Full stop.
Eh, the post gets better.

Hopefully followed in prosecutions of those readers here can name off the top of their heads. And surely more, long in hiding behind the scenes.
