I will be fair to people who get accused of being feds because their flags have creases, I've had some hanging indoors for a month or so now and they're still really creased. I'll have to break out some actual steam action.
But I have learned to not be quite _as_ suspicious about somebody with creases in their flag.
 
The White House has released a list of accomplishments from President Trump's first 100 hours:

The First 100 Hours: Historic Action to Kick Off America’s Golden Age​

January 24, 2025

President Donald Trump’s second term is off to an historic start.

The President is wasting no time delivering on the promises he made to the American people. The President signed more executive orders on his first day in office than any other president in history.

Within the first 100 hours of his second administration, President Trump taken hundreds of executive actions to secure the border, deport criminal illegal immigrants, unleash American prosperity, lower costs, increase government transparency, and reinstitute merit-based hiring in the federal government.

The President has already secured over $1 trillion in historic new investments.

We’re witnessing the Trump Effect:
  • President Trump is securing historic investments just days after being sworn in.
    • President Trump secured $500 billion in private sector investment for the largest AI infrastructure project in history, with Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son, Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman all stating that it would not have been possible if not for President Trump’s election victory and leadership.
    • Saudi Arabia “wants to invest $600 billion in the United States over the next four years.”
    • Stellantis announced it will restart an assembly plant in Illinois and build the new Dodge Durango in Detroit.
      • The Detroit Free Press: “The news, announced in a letter Wednesday to employees from North America Chief Operating Officer Antonio Filosa, also provided some good news to workers in Toledo, Ohio, and Kokomo, Indiana, where investments are planned. The Belvidere plant will start production of a new midsize truck in the next two years. The letter said company Chairman John Elkann had met last week with President Donald Trump before his inauguration on Monday. Elkann shared ‘our enthusiasm for his strong commitment to the United States auto industry and all that this means for American jobs and the broader economy.’”
  • President Trump is already securing the border and arresting criminal illegal immigrants.
  • The Border Patrol is reporting a significant drop already in attempted illegal crossings.
  • Fox News: “The U.S. southern border has seen a sharp drop in illegal immigrant encounters in the first days of the Trump administration, compared to the final few days of the Biden administration.”
    • ICE is at work rounding up criminal aliens.
      • Fox News: “Information obtained by Fox News Digital, shows that between midnight Jan. 21 and 9 a.m. Jan 22, a 33-hour period, ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) arrested more than 460 illegal immigrants that include criminal histories of sexual assault, robbery, burglary, aggravated assault, drugs and weapons offenses, resisting arrest and domestic violence.”
      • Breitbart News: “President Donald Trump’s administration arrested 538 illegal aliens on Thursday, ranging from child predators to gang members and a suspected terrorist.”
    • The Trump Administration immediately shut down the CBP One app, which “paroled” over 1 million illegal immigrants.
    • Deportation flights have already started and the military is assisting with the effort.
    • The Department of Homeland Security reinstated official use of the term “illegal alien” over “undocumented noncitizen,” and the DOJ announced it would be taking action against lawless sanctuary city policies.
    • President Donald Trump signed an executive order to designate the cartels as terrorist organizations.
  • Common sense has been restored to the government.
    • President Trump signed a series of executive orders ensuring the elimination of discriminatory DEI practices and ensuring merit-based hiring.
    • DEI staff are being placed on leave.
    • The Federal Aviation Administration must now return to merit-based hiring.
    • President Trump ended an affirmative action mandate in federal government hiring.
    • President Trump signed an executive order affirming the reality that there are only two sexes.
    • The State Department issued guidance that embassies should only be flying the American flag, and not any activist flags.
    • President Donald Trump signed an executive order telling agencies to stop remote work practices and directing workers to return to the office.
    • The State Department subsequently ordered workers to return to working in the office.
    • President Donald Trump is unleashing American energy.
    • President Trump declared a National Energy Emergency to unlock America’s full energy potential and bring down costs for American families.
    • President Trump rescinded every one of Joe Biden’s industry-killing, pro-China, and anti-American energy regulations, empowering consumer choice in vehicles, showerheads, toilets, washing machines, lightbulbs, and dishwashers.
    • President Trump withdrew the United States from the disastrous Paris Climate Agreement that unfairly ripped off our country.
    • President Trump paused all new federal leasing and permitting for massive wind farms that degrade our natural landscapes and fail to serve American energy consumers.
    • President Trump reversed the burdensome regulations that impeded Alaska’s ability to develop its vast natural resources.
    • President Trump terminated Biden’s harmful electric vehicle mandate.
These opening few days can be summarized as Promises Made, Promises Kept:
  • President Donald Trump said he would declassify the JFK Files. He did.
  • President Donald Trump said he would end the EV mandate. He did.
  • President Donald Trump said he would have the backs of the brave men and women in law enforcement. He did just that by pardoning two Washington D.C. Police officers that were unjustly prosecuted. The Metropolitan Police Department thanked President Trump for the pardon.
  • President Donald Trump said he would use the military to secure the border. The Pentagon is deploying troops to the border and the Coast Guard is surging assets to the Gulf of America.
  • President Trump said we would drill, baby, drill. The President signed executive orders to open up offshore drilling and allow more energy exploration in Alaska.
  • President Donald Trump said he would end the weaponization of government. He signed an executive order doing just that.
  • President Donald Trump said he would pardon the J6 Hostages. He did.
  • President Donald Trump said he would end government censorship. On his first day in office, he signed an executive order restoring freedom of speech and ending government censorship.
President Trump is being praised for his historic leadership:

The Steel Manufacturers Association: “President Trump has repeatedly demonstrated his strong support for American steel workers. He reiterated that support on day one by directing his agencies to investigate unfair trade and its impact on domestic manufacturing.”

American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers President and CEO Chet Thompson: “President Trump promised to end gas car bans and vehicle mandates on Day 1 of his new administration, and we are pleased to see that work already underway. Thank you, President Trump.”

American Petroleum Institute President and CEO Mike Sommers: “Americans sent a clear message at the ballot box, and President Trump is answering the call on Day 1. U.S. energy dominance will drive our nation’s economic and security agenda. This is a new day for American energy, and we applaud President Trump for moving swiftly to chart a new path where U.S. oil and natural gas are embraced, not restricted.”

Job Creators Network CEO Alfredo Ortiz: “Trump’s two-fold approach of boosting oil and gas production and repealing the Biden administration’s green energy mandates will make American energy cheaper, reliable and more efficient.”

Mortgage Bankers Association President and CEO Bob Broeksmit: “President Trump campaigned on lowering costs for Americans, and we appreciate housing supply and affordability being included in an executive order on this issue. We support efforts to cut unnecessary regulatory red tape and to pursue federal housing program enhancements that make renting and homeownership more attainable and sustainable.”

Professional Trucking Association Group: “President Trump’s decision to freeze regulations and curtail bureaucratic overreach is commendable. This is precisely what America needs: reduced government interference and increased freedom for small trucking businesses and entrepreneurs to flourish.”

NetChoice CEO Steve DelBianco: “Upon returning to office, President Trump showed that America is ready to lead in tech and innovation again. By repealing Biden’s restrictive rules on energy production and AI development, the president is steering America to remain dominant in creating the best technology in the world.”

United Against Nuclear Iran Chairman Governor Jeb Bush and CEO Ambassador Mark Wallace: “We applaud President Trump for his decision today to redesignate the Houthis as an FTO. UANI in its recommended action plan for the Trump administration’s first 100 days suggested that the president redesignate the Houthis as an FTO. This will now provide the U.S. government additional authorities to hold the Houthis accountable for their threats to international commerce and U.S. allies and partners.”

What about that Hitler guy? He seemed to be pretty on the ball.
On the ball?

Have you seen the Gypsy cancer that has metastisized in Europe and is begining to root itself in the US?

If Hitler was so great, the gypsies would be lost to history. A vile offshoot of humanity that would be extinct.
 
We know why aid to Israel was not frozen, but why continue with aid to Egypt? 🤔

Egypt is a powder keg. If it implodes then both the Saudis and Israelis are fucked as millions of people will run from the damage and the entire MENA region gets thrown into turmoil worse than the fall of Libya.

Can a European answer if there are upstanding Gypsies or are they all horrible?
Everyone has met non criminal blacks and Mexicans, but I've never seen someone show off a good upstanding gypsy.

going to look but cost :optimistic:
Edit : it seems to be cost & not paying enough & only some white take R&D money.
It aims to significantly increase participation of underrepresented groups, including Black and Hispanic Americans, in clinical trials, recognizing that most available evidence is based largely on white patients and therefore may not account for differences in how drugs and devices work or what side effects they may cause in various populations.

The guidance would require drug and device makers to set goals and detail their strategies for enrolling people from diverse populations for every late-stage clinical trial slated for U.S. regulatory review. It was due to be finalized by June 2025.

"Poor representation in clinical trials reduces our understanding of drug responses and safety for all groups," said Jeanne Regnante, a health equity life sciences consultant at Patient 3i LLC.

At midday on Friday, Reuters could not access the FDA's June 26 draft guidance on the agency's website. It was still accessible on the U.S. government's regulation.gov website.

The FDA declined to comment, citing a pause on most mass communications from federal health agencies introduced by the new Trump administration as it reviews their processes.
 
I never understood how people that got hired because of their gender or race could be proud of their employment.

You wrongfully assume they have the mental capacity to feel genuine pride or shame in the first place. They beg like dogs for more money because they were born, don’t expect them to know how to actually feel self-worth.

A longer clip of the NC people from that insurance BS clip, one thing I've noticed about Trump in the past week is he really is acting like a disappointed dad who is coming back to a home just run down due to willful neglect and poor care, like he can't even comprehend FEMA literally just let them rot for six months. Even if you want to take Trump as one of the worst snake oil salesman, he at least had to sell his properties as being something worthwhile and had to put in an effort to sell a lie. These days the government has just abandoned their jobs.



Apparently Trump also talked to Denmark last week, and it seems like Trump isn't joking around and the euro fags are finally realizing that.

Denmark is such a nothing country I couldn't find a worthwhile One Piece fight comparison so here's how this US/Denmark situation is going to go:

 
Pro-Get-Illegals-the-FUCK-Out story, while nothing horrifying like the previous posts, our previous neighbor had a roommate who almost every night threw parties that would last well into the wee hours. We had to start putting up cameras because drunk assholes were trying to get into the house and our cars. Far as we know not all of them were illegals, but they were definitely spics and niggers. Well one of the spic regulars had gotten into a fight with some uninvited visitors because I guess there was some goods exchange involved, and while it thankfully didn't end in total violence, we found out through said-roommate that the spic involved and the visitors were cartel if not cartel-adjacent. Motherfucker was drawing in cartel members into our neighborhood.

The roommate eventually got kicked out when one party did end in a stabbing (maybe still involving illegals, no idea) because other unwanted visitors came up to pick a fight with someone, then was taking a bat to their car (I heard him going "How do you like it now?!") and a struggle happened that ended up with someone getting stabbed (he lived). The neighbor himself moved away after about a year and a black family has since moved in, and they're pretty chill, they keep to themselves and don't make a fuss, and they love having their cozy fire pit going in the driveway.

I don't live near the border, but being a border-state, of course you have coyotes and cartel slithering around in the shadows. But my community wasn't known for having them in the area, so it was a real tense time before everyone involved left. With low-income apartment complexes popping up in the last couple of years, it's only a matter of time before we get another incident like that again. It's ridiculous.

Anyhoo don't fuck with the cartel and don't allow that shit near you even by proxy. They should be shot on sight with bazookas, and their handmaidens too.
 
Am I a bozo for thinking Fauci might need the security service that got pulled?

Though I suppose he’s probably rich enough to afford his own security.
I hope someone Luigi's his ass. Just don't be dumb enough to use a gun. Find out what server he's gonna be in on Tarkov, drink a bunch of Vodka, put the bottles in your car, then ram the fucker and his security in Tarkov. Unless they pull some legal fuckfuck games the worst you could get is vehicular manslaughter charges as long as you don't make your intentions known in game chat.
