The ‘Speed of Trump’ continues.

The following is an installment of Trump-Vance team accomplishments (each article is linked for further info):

1. Director Kash Patel Orders 1,500 FBI Agents and Staff Out of the Building on Day One

FBI Director Kash Patel followed up a fiery introductory speech on Friday with notification that 1,000 agents and staff will be reassigned to cities the Trump administration has designated higher crime locations where they can fight crime rather than engage in political shenanigans. Another 500 staff will be reassigned to Huntsville, Alabama, which is the D.C. equivalent of exile to Siberia.

Some of those agents are on temporary duty to DC and will return to their home offices. You can also bet that a non-trivial number of those ordered out of the building will retire rather than move. That would be sad, and we’d be filled with regret over the loss of their talent, but we shall have to somehow soldier on.

Patel said:

A third of the workforce for the FBI works in Washington, D.C.

I am fully committed to having that workforce go out into the interior of the country, where I live west of the Mississippi, and work with sheriff’s departments and local officers.

2. Woke General Out, ISIS-Busting General In as Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman

After firing Air Force General Charles “CQ” Brown Jr., President Trump announced the nomination of Air Force Lt. General Dan “Razin” Caine to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

President Trump noted on Truth Social:

I want to thank General Charles “CQ” Brown for his over 40 years of service to our country, including as our current Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He is a fine gentleman and an outstanding leader, and I wish a great future for him and his family.

Today, I am honored to announce that I am nominating Air Force Lieutenant General Dan “Razin” Caine to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. General Caine is an accomplished pilot, national security expert, successful entrepreneur, and a “warfighter” with significant interagency and special operations experience.

During my first term, Razin was instrumental in the complete annihilation of the ISIS caliphate. It was done in record setting time, a matter of weeks. Many so-called military “geniuses” said it would take years to defeat ISIS. General Caine, on the other hand, said it could be done quickly, and he delivered.

Despite being highly qualified and respected to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the previous administration, General Caine was passed over for promotion by Sleepy Joe Biden. But not anymore! Alongside Secretary Pete Hegseth, General Caine and our military will restore peace through strength, put America First, and rebuild our military. Finally, I have also directed Secretary Hegseth to solicit nominations for five additional high level positions, which will be announced soon. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Caine is a career F-16 pilot who served on active duty and in the National Guard, and was most recently the associate director for military affairs at the CIA.

This is the type of warfighter the U.S. military needs.

3. Chemtrails? Trump Suggests Something U.S. Gov’t ‘Spraying’ Could Contribute to Rising Autism Rates

President Trump raised eyebrows at a press conference Friday saying his administration would investigate rising autism rates, suggesting something being “sprayed” could be a contributing factor.

Speaking to reporters at an event welcoming various state governors to the White House, Trump said he was concerned with skyrocketing autism cases, which he said have gone from one in 20,000 15 years ago to now one in 34.

So, there’s something wrong, there’s something wrong, we’ve done something wrong, there’s something…we’re going to figure it out.

US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy spoke to the issue on X last year after suspending his Independent presidential campaign and announcing his support for then-candidate Trump, having said:

We are going to stop this crime.

4. Scott Jennings Drops Reality Check on Susan Rice After She Has Meltdown Over Firing of Joint Chiefs Chair

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins set the tone saying she heard from unidentified source (a retired general, supposedly) who thought that this was “sadly political” and “tragic.” Rice shook her head sadly, as though this was a tragedy.

Perhaps Susan Rice would like to check in on what her boss Barack Obama did in the past, in what some called a “coup” and a “purge” of 197 military officers to align the military with more of what he wanted? That was damaging and unprecedented.

This is not that, as CNN commentator Scott Jennings explained to a CNN panel. There’s a really simple reason, the Chair of the Joint Chiefs serves at the pleasure of the president, to be his or her chief adviser.

Why does he have to explain this? They should know already.

Of course Trump is going to choose the person he thinks best for that job, and that is his right. But the Left does not want to acknowledge this. They want to make every move that Trump takes somehow “unprecedented” and fearful—even if it is not and what they did was actually bad.

If Susan Rice is unhappy, that pretty much confirms what a great move this is.

5. Trump Administration Removed 2,300 DEI-Related Pages from the Department of Education’s Website

Recent investigations into Department of Education materials reveal an extensive web of ideological content that prioritized radical left-wing social engineering over academic achievement.

In a sweeping move that signals a return to common-sense educational fundamentals, the Trump administration has identified and removed over 2,300 webpages of what officials describe as “woke propaganda” from Department of Education websites.

These materials promoted everything from race-based hiring practices to radical gender ideology in schools.

Dept. of Ed. Spokesperson Savannah Newhouse did not mince words about the cleanup effort:

While America’s students continued to fall further behind in fundamental learning, [the Regime] turned the Department of Education website into an apparatus that pushed their woke propaganda.

Countless fact sheets on how to use inclusive language and reflect the diversity of human bodies is a distraction from real education and a disservice to students, teachers, and parents everywhere.

The removal operation aligns with President Donald Trump’s 2025 executive orders targeting wasteful DEI programs and protecting women from gender ideology extremism. However, the scale of ideological content discovered within the department has shocked even experienced education policy experts.

6. The Answer to 1913 Is 2025: Three Charts That Show Why the Income Tax, the IRS and the Federal Reserve Should All Be Abolished

Most Americans do not know that for much of U.S. history there was no federal income tax and there was no central bank.

It is not a coincidence that a federal income tax and the Federal Reserve were both established in 1913.  Since that time, we have piled up the biggest mountain of debt in the history of the world, and that is precisely the outcome that the system was designed to produce.

The Federal Reserve system is designed to create debt, and the income tax is designed to service that debt.

Elon Musk has suggested the Federal Reserve could soon be visited by the Department of Government Efficiency.

In fact, Musk wrote on X in response to a user’s post about the billionaire’s support for an audit of the Fed:

[T]he central bank isn’t above scrutiny from DOGE.

Further:

All aspects of the government must be fully transparent and accountable to the people. No exceptions, including, if not especially, the Federal Reserve.

7. CPAC Poll: American Conservative Leaders Love Trump and Vance

 A straw poll taken at the CPAC gathering in Washington, D.C. shows 99 percent of more than 1,000 leaders at the conference support Trump. 95% say they ‘strongly’ support the president.

When asked if they approve or disapprove of the job that Vice President J.D. Vance is doing, the approval numbers match the President’s with 99% in support, and 95% “strongly’ approving of his performance.
