The following is an installment of Trump-Vance team accomplishments (each article is linked for further info):
1. CNN’s Van Jones Summarized the Left’s Position Against a Surging Trump Administration in Two Simple Words
“We’re screwed,” he said dejectedly.
Jones insinuated House crime syndicate leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (C/G-NY) has been unable to do much regarding stopping the Trump agenda.
He hasn’t been able to disrupt congressional Republicans. The party doesn’t know what to do, which was evident during President Donald Trump’s address to Congress last week.
Jones noted his party was given haymakers to both sides of the face:
[T]hey were caught flat-footed defending the status quo, which everyone hated, and then offended everyone who disagreed with them, calling their detractors, racist, transphobic, homophobic, and misogynist—no one cared because everyone could see through this game.
The [propaganda media’s] influence and power are dying, and [Leftists] don’t know how voters think anymore. It makes finding a new message difficult.
The Left is trapped in a time warp—they do not have an alternate plan for the budget, and they are foolishly doubling down on some of the most unpopular positions in public policy right now. And on top of all the bad, they are carrying water for Hamas terrorists.
We the People hope and pray they continue to flounder.
2. DOGE Cancels Over 200,000 Taxpayer-Funded Federal Government Credit Cards
DOGE announced credit cards linked to more than a dozen federal agencies were deactivated. This action came following an audit showing they were either unused or unneeded.
DOGE wrote in a post on X:
Weekly Credit Card Update!
Pilot program with 16 agencies to audit unused/unneeded credit cards
After 3 weeks, >200,000 cards have been de-activated. Great progress this past week by @HHSGov [U.S. Department of Health and Human Services] @Interior [U.S. Department of the Interior].

The agencies which have had credit cards canceled include:
- the General Services Administration (GSA)
- the Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
- the Labor Department
- the Small Business Administration (SBA)
- the Education Department
- the Interior Department
- the Treasury Department, the Commerce Department
- the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
- the Agriculture Department (USDA)
- NASA
- the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
- Homeland Security
- the Social Security Department
- the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
The Interior Department saw the largest number of credit card terminations with nearly 20,000 purchase cards and nearly 40,000 travel cards canceled.
3. Trump ‘Tightening His Grip’ on FBI & DOJ to End ‘Weaponization’
Trump pitched his overhaul of the FBI and DOJ as a campaign to end “weaponization.”
A Wall Street Journal article is especially critical of Trump’s choice of FBI director, Kash Patel.
A longtime Trump loyalist, Patel has ignited backlash from the Left over his alleged plans to seek retribution and “Ultimate Accountability” on Trump’s behalf.
The Journal reported:
Patel is upholding his reputation as an outsider to the agency he now leads, requesting a secure line to contact the president directly.
Further:
Patel has asked about hiring his own private security detail, making it clear he does not trust the FBI agents tasked with protecting him.
FBI spokesperson Ben Williamson said:
Director Patel is aggressively working to deliver on removing criminals from our streets, restoring law and order, and ensuring agents have the resources they need to perform their duties effectively.
Defenders of Trump’s reforms would likely say the FBI has been aligned with the left for years, regardless of the political affiliation of the president.
And let us not forget, Patel’s predecessor, Christopher Wray, a Republican appointed by Trump during his first term, oversaw an unprecedented raid of Trump’s home in 2022.
No doubt, the FBI has had a hostile relationship with Trump since his first presidential run in 2016. The federal agency infamously spied on Trump’s 2016 campaign using opposition research funded by his opponent, Hillary Clinton.
Trump’s critics have accused him of a hostile takeover that threatens the rule of law, however, We the People see this as an excellent example of ‘Turnabout Is Fair Play.’
4. GOP Rep Praises Trump’s Rare Minerals Plan, Vows It Will Spur Manufacturing Boom
President Trump announced during last week’s joint session of Congress he is preparing to take “historic action to dramatically expand production of critical minerals and rare earths here in the USA.”
Congressman Tom Tiffany (R-WI), who chairs the Subcommittee on Federal Lands, believes this executive action could trigger a manufacturing renaissance across the Rust Belt.
From Just the News:
‘We have such an incredible endowment here in America of natural resources, including minerals of all types, for example, in the upper Midwest, from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in that arc under Lake Superior all the way over through Wisconsin to Northeastern Minnesota, we have all the minerals we need,’ he said on the Just the News, Not Noise TV program.
Why this matters? Tiffany explained:
[T]he reason why it’s so important that we mine them, because you’re going to almost certainly have your manufacturing close to where you find the natural resource.
And the elephant in the room—China. They currently control a whopping 70% of global rare earth mineral production and process an eye-popping 90% of the world’s supply. Think that is just an economic issue? Think again.
In December 2024, Beijing announced a ban on exporting rare earths like gallium, germanium, and antimony to the United States. These are not just fancy-sounding elements on the periodic table—they are described by experts as “vital inputs for defense technologies.”
So, while the crime syndicate spent years fretting about “Russian collusion,” China was quietly cornering the market on materials essential to our national security. A classic case of watching the wrong threat.
5. FEMA Fired Anti-Trump Employees Who Directed Skipping of Homes After Hurricane
FEMA had become Helping Hands Playing Favorites and following an investigation which revealed relief workers were instructed to skip homes displaying Trump signs in hurricane-ravaged Florida, the revelation sparked immediate outrage.
Marne Washington was the first to be terminated—in November. And still in 2025 the “Ultimate Accountability” train is rolling along.
In a significant development, Acting FEMA Director Cameron Hamilton has now confirmed that three additional FEMA employees with supervisory roles over Washington have also been fired. The announcement came in a letter to Senator Katie Britt of Alabama, who had demanded answers after the initial report surfaced.
Hamilton’s letter explained that while their investigation found “no evidence that this was a systemic problem, nor that it was directed by agency or field leadership,” the supervisors “failed to meet my expectations of leaders in this organization and have been terminated.” He added that the firings were necessary to send a clear message that “this type of behavior will not be tolerated at FEMA.”
House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) praised the agency’s decisive action, having stated:
Political affiliation should never be a factor in distributing taxpayer-funded disaster relief to Americans. Americans demand accountability in Washington and President Trump and his administration are delivering it.
