Quick Takes from the Past 24-48 Hours

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

1. Leftist Strategist Admits Lawfare Against Trump Was All Party ‘Resistance’ (Video)

The Left’s lawfare against President Trump was much more than just their voting against his plans and ideas in Congress. More than their public innuendo about him breaking democracy. Much more than the falsified claims perpetrated by the schemers of the Russian collusion conspiracy. Much more than just the Deep Staters ignoring his orders, reversing them when they could within their own sphere of government influence.

It also was all the criminal and civil cases created against him. It was all of the wild and unsubstantiated claims they used in two failed impeach-and-remove campaigns. It was Leftist prosecutors misusing their positions of power to attack him.

That is the conclusion drawn from an admission by a Leftist strategist.

Scott Jennings explained:

I can’t believe it. They finally admitted it on live TV: The prosecution of President Trump was an organized effort by the Democratic Party ‘resistance.’ Lawfare is real. The justice system was weaponized against President Trump.

2. Trump’s ICE Defies Blue Sanctuary State to Conduct Raid Against Illegal Alien Gangs

DHS conducted a major sting operation in the heart of a notorious sanctuary state, Massachusetts. They rounded up illegal alien gang members and other violent offenders who have been lurking in the shadows.

To the sanctuary city politicians:

Your virtue signaling does not supersede

federal law or the safety of [your] communities.

United States Attorney Leah Foley delivered that memo with a megaphone, issuing a stark warning:

I will not stand idly by if any public official, public safety officer, organization, or private citizen acts in a manner that criminally obstructs or impedes ICE operations.

The United States Attorney’s Office, along with our federal partners, will investigate any violations of federal law and pursue charges that are warranted by such activity.

The days of coddling illegal alien criminals are numbered. Among those nabbed in the Massachusetts sweep were MS-13 gang bangers like Irwin Alexander Martinez and Noe Pena Garcia, the latter already having a rap sheet in Boston for dangerous weapons. Also, creeps charged with soliciting murder, assault and battery on a pregnant woman, and even indecent assault on a 7-year-old.

As DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin stated:

President Trump and Secretary Noem will not allow criminal illegal aliens to roam free, putting the lives of more American citizens in danger.

NOTE: This is not an isolated incident in the Bay State. In Nashville, Tennessee, ICE agents recently captured nearly 200 criminal illegal aliens—wanted killers, rapists, and drug dealers. One MS-13 member, Franklin Oswaldo Velasquez, was wanted in El Salvador for aggravated murder. Another, Jassim Jafaf Al-Raash from Iraq, had a prior conviction for rape. These are not people looking for a better life; they are predators.

Predictably, some local politicians are not thrilled. DHS’s Tricia McLaughlin rightly slammed Nashville’s Mayor Freddie O’Connell for his sanctuary city policies, noting, “pro-open borders politicians—like Mayor O’Connell—would rather protect illegal aliens than American citizens.”

These actions are clear messages:

If you’re a criminal alien, your free ride is over.

And if you’re a politician trying to shield them, expect a fight.

3. More Corruption Exposed—The Hits Keep Landing on the Left

As President Trump tours the world and negotiates tariff reductions among our trading partners, including now China, which has agreed to drastic slashes in their tariffs against the United States, the propaganda media is failing to adequately report these huge gains for our nation. Trump is calling his accomplishments a “total reset,” but the propaganda media seem uninterested.

Meanwhile, more [Leftists] are being exposed as criminals who have been cheating, lying, and stealing money from the American taxpayer. Despite the reams of information uncovered, it seems like this is just the tip of the iceberg.

Since Donald Trump took office, there has been a huge surge in foreign capital investment in the United States. Big pharmaceutical companies are now onshoring their production facilities and coming back to the U.S., and major manufacturers in all areas are bringing more and more manufacturing capacity into the United States, investing billions and billions of dollars. These jobs will pay huge dividends in the form of new jobs and money staying here rather than going abroad.

Meanwhile, inflation is down, food and gasoline prices are falling, the stock market and job numbers are up, and the administration is only beginning to make important changes. And let us not forget the do-nothing Jerome Powell and his Federal Reserve refusing to lower the lending rate.

FINAL NOTE: As more information comes out, Joe Biden apparently did not sign anything during his occupancy and if not, ALL the important documents, bills, and orders were signed by an autopen.

President Trump has announced he will subpoena the people involved who are responsible for this, and they will be brought forward for questioning as to why our sitting occupant was not signing such important documents so vital to our national security and national policies.

4. Trump: ‘China Would Have Broken Apart’ if We Didn’t Do Deal

Does President Trump’s comment about ‘China breaking apart had a trade deal not been reached’ speak of China’s economic-political fragility?

On Fox News Channel’s Special Report, President Trump stated he will not make deals with every country because he cannot meet with that many people and he also said:

If I didn’t do that deal with China, I think China would have broken apart.

Host Bret Baier said:

Not us, them?

Trump responded:

We weren’t going to break. We’re not going to break. They would have broken apart.

Final thoughts: The reports of China’s threat to America abound, but there are also reports about China’s ongoing economic difficulties.

I’m thinking President Trump is operating at a very high level of chess and is throwing We the People morsels of information.

5. Trump Admin to Allow Bump-Stock Sales—Propaganda Media Again ‘Get It Wrong’

As part of the settlement of a lawsuit by the National Association for Gun Rights, the Trump DOJ is reversing a policy from the first Trump administration.

The new policy will allow the sale of forced-reset trigger devices, one example of which is described as a “bump stock.” These devices, while allowing a rifle or handgun to fire rapidly, do not alter the actual operation of the gun in any way; it still requires one actuation of the trigger to fire one and only one round.

No. The Trump administration has not legalized machine guns, and note, actual machine guns are still legal for law-abiding citizens to own, if they are willing to invest the considerable costs and leap through a few government hoops that have been in place since 1934.

Barring the sale would accomplish precisely nothing. The “bump stock” action can be duplicated with a rubber band or a belt loop. All it takes is a few minutes of practice.

As usual, the gun-control advocates condemned the move and get it wrong:

The Trump administration has just effectively legalized machine guns. Lives will be lost because of his actions.

This is an incredibly dangerous move that will enable shooters to inflict horrific damage.

The only people who benefit from these being on the market are the people who will make money from selling them, everyone else will suffer the consequences.
