Gaza Board of Peace

      Comments Off on Gaza Board of Peace

What is the Gaza Board of Peace?  The Gaza Board of Peace is part of the peace plan worked out by the Trump administration.  It is an international transitional mechanism aimed at managing Gaza in the aftermath of prolonged conflict.  Most recently this has been the war that was started by Hamas through its October 7thatrocities.

Its core objective is to support stabilization, reconstruction, and civilian governance while preventing a power vacuum that would occur after Hamas had been defeated. The body is envisioned as a temporary arrangement involving international stakeholders, regional actors, and Palestinian technocrats to oversee aid delivery, rebuilding of infrastructure, and basic administration. It is meant to create conditions for long-term peace, security, and economic recovery in Gaza during a sensitive post-conflict phase.  It has been supported and approved by the United nations.

What Trump has announced this week in connection with this is breath-taking in its vision and potential downstream ramifications.

2025…Count Your Blessings

      Comments Off on 2025…Count Your Blessings

I hear from time to time about the so-called lack of progress by the Trump administration.  The power brokers are trying to paint PDJT as just another sleazeball DC politician.  They are hoping to sow enough doubt among the citizenry so that they can return to power in November elections.  One must be reminded that the major media outlets are all in on this scam.

Let’s look at a few of the accomplishments of this administration less than a year in.

EU…More Control Coming

      Comments Off on EU…More Control Coming

The European Union is imposing a flat fee of 3 euros on small packages sent within the bloc, a measure that will come into force in July.  This will directly affect millions of consumers and small businesses. This is Brussels taking yet another step in its efforts at increasing control over trade and the daily lives of its citizens.

Obamacare

      Comments Off on Obamacare

Obamacare and health care premiums are going to be front and center again very soon.  Obamacare which was supposed to lower premiums instead has seen skyrocketing costs particularly for those forced into the government plan for ACA.  This was all part of the plan by the Democrats to make people more dependent on the government.

As can be seen in the above graph, employer premiums have risen much faster than inflation.  However, those increases pale in comparison to the premiums for Obamacare government healthcare exchanges. ...

Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, delivers a passionate series of remarks in support of President Trump’s foreign policy.  I am really beginning to like this guy.

Outlining the impact of federal policy under President Trump from the perspective of what is in America’s best interest, Rubio notes how foreign policy meshes with domestic policy and is specifically the combination of national security interests that secures prosperity for all American people.

“For the first time in four decades American foreign policy is based on what is in our interests,” Rubio notes.

Ukraine Meetings Continue

      Comments Off on Ukraine Meetings Continue

On Sunday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Trump emissaries Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with the Ukraine negotiating team in Florida to further discuss terms for a ceasefire and an end to the war.

An interesting note is that President Zelenskyy was not present for these talks.  Zelenskyy is embroiled in a corruption scandal in Ukraine involving his senior administrative team.  The Ukraine delegation was led by State Security Council Secretary Rustem Umerov, while Zelenskyy went to Paris for an emotional support session with Emmanuel Macron.

One of those things that I run into now and again is complaints about this administration in the form of why are no big time Democrats in jail?  Why haven’t more illegal aliens been deported out of the country?  How come the war in Ukraine is still going on?  Etc.

Now if Trump was the autocratic ruler that the Left claims that he is, those questions might be meaningful.  Obviously that is not the case.  In fact, the attempted assassinations of PDJT, the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the heinous murder of National Guard’s Sarah Beckstrom expose an unprecedented and very scary resistance both in the courts of this country as well as in the streets.

Senility

      Comments Off on Senility

Is senility an illness that is beginning to ravage the elite ranks of the Democratic Party?  The country has seen the decline of former President Joe Biden before our very eyes.  The same can be said of the former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, whose disconnects with reality are now being hidden behind very rare public appearances.  Thankfully, Pelosi has opted to retire at the end of her current term.

Six Democratic members of the House and Senate recently came out and called for the mutiny of members of our armed services.  The only possible explanation for this has to be senility because otherwise, these people are certainly bordering on charges of sedition.

Of course, on the other side of the aisle, Senator Mitch McConnell appears to be slipping away.  Thankfully he has decided not to run in 2026.

R.I.P NYC

      Comments Off on R.I.P NYC

Tuesday’s election results in NYC had hardly been announced before Zohran Mamdani dropped all pretenses and announced a full-on assault on capitalism and America.  The mayor-elect was not at all holding back when he went on a rage against America and, of course, PDJT.

Zohran Mamdani, a self-described “democratic socialist” and the first Muslim mayor-elect of New York City, delivered a fiery, Marxist-tinged victory speech that sounded less like an American mayor and more like a true disciple of Marxism and communism. ...
