The U.S. Army recently announced it shattered previous recruiting records, with December 2024 being the most productive December in 15 years.

The branch reported it enlisted nearly 350 soldiers every day that month, Army officials announced Tuesday on social media.

“Our Recruiters have one of the toughest jobs – inspiring the next generation of #Soldiers to serve. Congratulations and keep up the great work! #BAYCB,” Army recruiting officials wrote in a post on X.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth took to X to share the news.

“BOTTOM LINE: America’s youth want to serve under the bold & strong “America First” leadership of [President Donald Trump] @realDonaldTrump.” (Read more from “Army Recruiting Shatters Records After President Trump’s Election Victory” HERE)

Latest CIA Announcement Shows the Deep State Must Be Panicking

/5 Comments/in , , /by

It has been quite the Tuesday: Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he declared we will take over the Gaza Strip, Pam Bondi was confirmed as attorney general, and USAID will begin a significant drawdown on Friday when all overseas missions are shut down.

Trump’s slash-and-burn campaign is real, with the DC bureaucrat swine class trembling as Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency becoming the grim reaper for lazy government workers, waste, and fraud. The Treasury Department got a DOGE smacking, as did USAID. Now, the CIA is running for cover, offering buyouts to its entire workforce (via WSJ):

The Central Intelligence Agency offered buyouts to its entire workforce Tuesday, in what officials said is a bid to bring the agency in line with President Trump’s priorities, including targeting drug cartels.

The CIA appeared to be the first intelligence agency to tell its employees that they can quit their jobs and receive about eight months of pay and benefits as part of Trump’s push to downsize the federal government. The offer last month made to most civilian federal agencies exempted some categories of federal workers, including those with national security roles.

The US Postal Service will temporarily suspend accepting inbound parcels from China and Hong Kong Posts until further notice, the USPS website showed.

The change, effective from Feb. 4, will not impact the flow of letters and “flats” from China and Hong Kong, according to the website.

USPS did not immediately comment on whether this was tied to US President Donald Trump’s change to ending ‘de minimis’ shipments from China and other countries. (Read more from “U.S. Postal Service Suspends Incoming Packages From China, Hong Kong” HERE)

Anti-Elon Rally Filled With Angry Lesbians, Deranged Libs, and Overall Strangeness

/2 Comments/in , /by

What the hell did I watch? If anything, the anti-Elon Musk rally last night proved two things: Trump derangement syndrome has been replaced by Elon Musk derangement syndrome. Second, the Democratic Party has no idea how to win elections. The reports of a rudderless, leaderless, and divided organization were confirmed last night. It also showed that they have no message other than ‘me no like this Trump administration,’ of which Elon Musk is a top agent of the president. His Department of Government Efficiency is wiping the table clean, exposing waste and fraud, and getting these lazy DC government workers to quit.

They already delivered a smackdown to legacy officials at the Treasury Department before Scott Bessent was confirmed as its next secretary. USAID has been virtually gutted, becoming absorbed into the State Department, where all overseas missions were ordered closed by Friday. The entire staff is slated to be furloughed this week. The CIA is also running scared, offering its entire workforce buyout options. The DOGE crew has accessed the Small Business Administration’s accounts, and Democrats cannot understand nor tolerate that the government doesn’t have to waste our tax dollars.

This rally was an aberrant event marked by whiny, deranged liberals, angry lesbians, and overall strangeness. Also, Chuck Schumer, stop trying to lead chants. It was painful to watch, but we also saw evidence of an armed rebellion. At least, that’s what I was told a few years ago regarding the new rules around this nonsense. What a circus (via The Guardian):

Hundreds of protesters and a contingent of Democratic lawmakers rallied outside the Department of the Treasury in Washington on Tuesday, denouncing what they called Elon Musk’s “hostile takeover” of federal financial systems, as demonstrations spilled on to, and took over, the street outside the building.

The protests targeted reports of the “department of government efficiency” (Doge) team’s reported access to sensitive government financial data, including information related to social security payments, Medicare reimbursements, and tax refunds – systems that process trillions of dollars in annual transactions.

Tulsi Gabbard’s Critics Claim She’s Unqualified — Despite ‘Massive Failures’ Of Her More ‘Experienced’ Predecessors

/0 Comments/in , /by

Tulsi Gabbard’s skeptics in the Senate have questioned her qualifications for Director of National Intelligence (DNI), but past DNIs who were confirmed with bipartisan support oversaw flagrant civil liberties abuses and major intelligence failures.

Many of the Democrats, and even some of the Republicans, who have expressed skepticism toward Gabbard supported her predecessors in the Biden and Obama administrations.

Gabbard’s harshest opponent, Virginia Democrat and vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee Sen. Mark Warner, implied in his opening statement that she may be legally unqualified for the position. The DNI is required to have “extensive national security expertise,” Warner said.

Gabbard is a Lieutenant Colonel in the National Guard, and she served in the Army National Guard for over twenty years where she was deployed to Iraq and Kuwait. Gabbard also served on the House Armed Services committee as a member of Congress from 2013 to 2021.

Republican Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell has been notably silent on Gabbard’s nomination. He was also one of the Republicans who voted against confirming Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense.

Largest Hedge Fund Founder on Why U.S. Is on Brink of Economic ‘Heart Attack’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States is currently in a “death spiral” of debt that could lead to an economic “heart attack” if both parties do not work together to start cutting immediately, according to Ray Dalio, the founder of the world’s largest hedge fund.

During a recent conversation on “The All-In Podcast” with co-host David Friedberg, Dalio noted that a “death spiral” typically refers to when a company or government has too much debt and must borrow to service it. According to Dalio, investors are acutely aware of this, which is causing credit to get worse and interest rates to increase.

Dalio, the Chief investment officer of Bridgewater Associates, says this is the worst thing that can happen to a heavily indebted entity. He notes that the key question is whether the debt creates a large enough income to mitigate this issue.

“That’s like, I don’t know, eating vegetables or something. It’s a healthy process. And if not, credit begins to build up this debt, it begins to become like plaque in the arteries. And you can measure it just like you could measure it in the arteries, and you can see how it constricts that circulatory system,” Dalio told “All-In.”

If interest and debt service continuously constrict a government’s money supply, Dalio claims this can lead to an “economic debt heart attack.” (Read more from “Largest Hedge Fund Founder on Why U.S. Is on Brink of Economic ‘Heart Attack’” HERE)

Trump Restores ‘Maximum Pressure’ Policy to Keep Iran From Possessing Nukes

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday that reinstates the “maximum pressure” policy on Iran that he implemented during his first term.

The “maximum pressure” executive order was part of a larger package of executive orders that included several foreign policy initiatives, such as withdrawing America from several United Nations agencies including the Human Rights Council and UNESCO. Much of the pressure will be financial, as the executive order tasks the Department of the Treasury to implement sweeping sanctions to keep money out of the pockets of the Iranian regime.

Iran is the world’s premier state sponsor of terrorism, funding and controlling a complex web of jihadist entities including Hamas, Hezbollah, a host of Iraqi Shiite militias, and the Houthi terrorists of Yemen. In 2o18, a State Department study estimated that Iran spends as much as $1 billion a year funding terrorism.

“Iran spends $700 million a year on Lebanese Hezbollah. It gives another $100 million to various Palestinian terrorist groups, including Hamas,” then-Ambassador-at-Large and Coordinator for Counterterrorism Nathan Sales told reporters. “Combined with the money that Tehran provides to other terrorists, the total bill comes close to $1 billion a year.”

During his first term as president, Trump similarly implemented onerous sanctions on Iran that significantly limited its malign influence in the Middle East. Trump also designated the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), a wing of the Iranian military, a foreign terrorist organization, and eliminated IRGC Quds Force chief Qasem Soleimani in an airstrike in 2020. Soleimani was largely responsible for coordination among several major Iranian terror proxies, leaving Tehran’s efforts to control jihadist activity hampered.

Trump: U.S. Will Take Over Gaza, ‘We Will Own It’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that the U.S. would take over Gaza and remove debris, tunnels, and explosives left there by Hamas after the war with Israel, adding that he saw America taking a “long-term ownership position.”

Trump said: “The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too. We’ll love it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous bombs and other weapons on the site… and get rid of the destroyed buildings [and] create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing.”

The surprise announcement came as the president spoke alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the first foreign leader to visit Trump since his Inauguration last month.

Trump had previously said that he would like to see most, or all, of the Palestinian population of Gaza moved to another Arab or Muslim country.

The idea of actually taking over Gaza, and establishing a U.S. presence, was both unexpected and completely new.

After Trump EO, Hospitals Push Gender Dysphoria While Claiming No Trans Surgeries On Kids

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hospitals around the nation claim they are ceasing their child mutilation and sterilization programs after President Donald Trump effectively ended the flow of taxpayer-funded radical gender ideology.

Less than one week after Trump’s monumental executive order, institutions whose stream of federal tax dollars is threatened by their participation in life-altering and often permanent operations announced their intent to scale those back or even end them altogether.

Doctors at New York University Langone Health allegedly quietly canceled two appointments designated to equip children with drugs that would chemically castrate them. As the New York Times noted on Saturday, however, the hospital system “has not made any public announcements” about the future of its mutilation and sterilization programs.

Denver Health told the Associated Press that it would cease “gender” surgeries for minors to preserve its status as the recipient of more than $89 million tax dollars a year. As the AP pointed out, however, it is “unclear” whether the hospital will continue the cross-sex hormones or puberty blockers also barred under Trump’s order. Instead, Denver Health emphasized that Trump’s order is “broadly worded” and committed to advancing radical gender ideology in ways untouched by the White House’s reach such as transgender voice therapy, according to KUSA.

“Denver Health is proud to be one of a very small number of providers of comprehensive care services to all of our patients including to LGBTQ+ and gender-diverse patients. As we navigate the order’s requirements, we will continue to provide primary and behavioral health care to all impacted youth and will work to maintain the level of trust we have built with the LGBTQ+ community,” Denver Health said in a statement.
