No, Mr. President, we are not tired of winning. Not yet. We are on a roll, and we just want to keep winning. The administration is moving at breakneck speed, and it’s amazing what we are learning about waste, fraud and abuse. Soon we are going to learn how so many people go to Washington poor and come out wealthy. Can’t wait for that.
Experts have turned on the siren about the sex trafficking of children. This industry tripled under the Biden administration. A journalist even described the situation as “The Government has become the ‘FedEx of Children from the Border to Traffickers’.” We have lost over 300,000 children that we know of. Thankfully, the border is finally closed.
A watchdog group called Do No Harm has exposed that some hospitals in the United States have profited with over $120 million for performing gender-affirming care on children. Most health facilities claim to only perform surgeries on adults, but the watchdog group has proved this is untrue. President Donald Trump has put an end to these procedures. Now it will be a crime to perform these life altering surgeries on minors.
America ranks second to last in the time it takes to develop a new mine for metals and materials. It takes 29 years. Only Zambia is worse. We need these materials for cell phones and solar panels, but environmentalist always say, “Not here.” Physicist Mark Mills says, “Why in the world would you put millions, maybe billions of dollars at risk, spending those decades to get a permit, knowing there’s a very good chance they’ll just cancel a permit? How in the world do you build mines in America knowing that’s the landscape that you have?” I hope Trump can do something about that.
According to a report in The Military Times, the U.S. Army has diverted over $151 million meant for soldiers’ food. Our own Fort Bragg collected $34.6 million but spent only $16.6 million on food. There have been complaints about food shortages on bases. Officials have not disclosed where the missing funds went. I’m betting on those 19-year-old DOGE boys to root out the answers.
An extensive survey by FIRE, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, was very telling. A biology professor was fired for saying X and Y chromosomes determine sex. What happened to “follow the science?” Apparently, it’s not allowed to be taught. The survey revealed that conservative professors were afraid to share their beliefs for fear of losing their jobs. I’m wondering how they even found any conservative professors.
A local high school in California has outraged its parents. A lesson asked students to simulate coming out as gay or lesbian. The lesson was taught by a math teacher. What happened to add, subtract, multiply and divide lessons in math? Do you know what’s being taught at your local school? Ask your kids and act on what they say.
Drug cartels became Mexico’s fifth-largest employer during the Biden administration open border policies. Shameful. Americans are dying in huge numbers from overdose deaths due to these insane policies.
Two families in Massachusetts are suing the school system for failure to educate the children. This has been tried many times before and has never succeeded. This time, the lawsuit is based on the “lemon law.” If Big Pharma and car companies can be sued for not delivering a satisfactory product, why not schools?
New Jersey can’t find enough qualified teachers to fill the vacancies. So what do they do? Yep, they removed the requirement for teaching candidates to demonstrate proficiency in reading, writing and math. I’m sure that will improve the quality of education. Not!
ESPN received criticism for skipping the national anthem and a moment of silence for the victims of the New Orleans terror attack during college football’s Sugar Bowl. I hope they learned a valuable lesson. Football, particularly the Super Bowl, is an American tradition. Our national anthem and our compassion are very much a part of our American tradition.
