on Senate Floor With Shocking Details
Posted By: JoElla Bee, 2/7/2025 10:47:48 AM
The start of DOGE's deep dive into a review of federal agencies has caused quite the kerfuffle, particularly DOGE's examination into all the bad things that have been going on with USAID.[Snip] Kennedy said he wasn't saying that everything USAID did was bad but that Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who has now taken over as the acting USAID administrator, was going to separate out the good from the bad. He also observed that Democrats want to attack Musk and the process, they don't want to talk about all the bad things that he's been finding. Elon Musk responded to the above video by saying "Thanks" to Kennedy.

Lightning in a Bottle: VP JD Vance Exhorts
AI Action Summit to Focus on Opportunity,
Not Fear 1 reply
AI Action Summit to Focus on Opportunity,
Not Fear 1 reply
Vice President JD Vance is overseas this week, traveling first to Paris, France, to attend the Artificial Intelligence Action Summit, then on to Munich, Germany, for the Security Conference. On Tuesday, he addressed the Summit, delivering remarks on the United States' vision for AI and the opportunity it presents. Vance's speech was relatively brief — just over 15 minutes — but it set out that vision clearly and pointedly, calling on our European allies, in particular, to step back from over-regulation and censorship and be wary of adversarial regimes.
We've been seeing a pretty amazing move to make over the government over the last three weeks since President Donald Trump has taken office.[Snip] Now, there's a follow-up action in Congress with the House Oversight Committee naming Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) to head the new "Task Force on Declassification of Federal Secrets." Luna announced that they would be looking into UFOs, the Jeffrey Epstein client list, JFK, RFK, and MLK, as well as the origins of COVID-19 and the 9/11 files.
$50 to $100 billion a year, that is how much has already been identified by the White House’s Department of Government Efficiency through a review of Treasury payments as likely fraud. This amount is nothing more than identifying how much is paid monthly to recipients who don’t have a Social Security number or other government identification attached to their files.[Snip] It is surprising that the various systems that are in place to ostensibly prevent fraud failed so spectacularly, and it is fair to wonder if some of those in charge of them were part of the steal?

It seems that failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is a glutton for punishment. Clinton on Thursday slammed Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy for enlisting the aid of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to help fix America’s aviation problems.[Snip]This time, Duffy removed the gloves.“I know you’re lashing out because DOGE is uncovering your family’s obscene grifting via USAID, but I won’t let you lie and distort facts,” the Transportation Secretary wrote. “The FAA administrator announced he resigned over a month before Trump took office, and the air traffic controllers were always exempt from Trump’s civil service buyouts.”
On Thursday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump is not sophisticated enough in terms of the intelligence community to understand what is happening when they comply with his executive orders. Pelosi said, “We are very proud of Hakeem Jeffries, our leader; he has given us guidance on our priorities of what we’re here to fight for, but also how we counter the Trump administration with litigation in the courts, legislation on the floor of the House, as well as communication and mobilization at the grassroots level.
Because of the current president and the current composition of Congress, we may never have a better opportunity to eliminate federal funding for illegal aliens in K–12 government schools.
Many assert that the U.S. Constitution requires the government to provide elementary and secondary education in all circumstances at taxpayer expense to children who are illegal aliens. In support of their assertion, they cite the 1982 United States Supreme Court opinion in Plyler v. Doe, 457 U.S. 202 (1982). They are wrong.
The defeated Democrats are so screwed up that they installed David Hogg as their second-in-command at the DNC, so these dorks are not going to be our biggest problem. Neither is the regime media, which is totally confused and baffled both at Donald Trump’s popularity and at the sheer speed and volume of his assault on the Establishment. No, our biggest problem in making America great again is going to be other Republicans.
Kultida Woods, the mother of 15-time major champion Tiger Woods, died early Tuesday morning, according to a social media post from the legendary golfer.[Snip] "It is with heartfelt sadness that I want to share that my dear mother, Kultida Woods, passed away early this morning. My Mom was a force of nature all her own, her spirit was simply undeniable. She was quick with the needle and a laugh. She was my biggest fan, greatest supporter, without her none of my personal achievements would have been possible.
The reconstruction of USAID from an independent terrorist and international leftist funding entity to a subsidiary of the State Department has Democrats involved in the foreign policy apparatus freaking out and desperately trying to get Americans to care. Here’s Sen. Chris Coons, former ‘bearded Marxist’, taking his best shot at it in the paper of big government. Trump’s attack on USAID is an assault on Americans’ safety – Washington Post.
Coons claims that “USAID’s programs, like all our foreign assistance, play a central role in combating extremism, promoting stability and protecting our homeland.”
Acting US Attorney for DC, Ed Martin announced his office would be charging and arresting individuals who threatened Elon Musk’s DOGE team. Ed Martin did not name any names as he announced that arrests and charges were coming. It is unclear which laws were violated. “Our initial review of the evidence presented to us indicates that certain individuals and/or groups have committed acts that appear to violate the law in targeting DOGE employees,” Ed Martin said. “We are in contact with the FBI and other law-enforcement partners to proceed rapidly. We also have our prosecutors preparing,” Ed Martin added.
WASHINGTON, Feb 3 (Reuters) - Former U.S. Representative Tulsi Gabbard's nomination to become director of national intelligence received a major boost on Monday when Senator Susan Collins said she would back President Donald Trump's nominee. "I look forward to working with Ms. Gabbard to strengthen our national security," Collins, a moderate who is one of the few Republicans who has voted against Trump initiatives, said in a statement supporting Gabbard. Collins issued her statement a day before the Senate Intelligence Committee is due to vote behind closed doors on the nomination

A federal judge on Tuesday ordered the Trump Administration to restore the gender ideology webpages it deleted.
US District Judge John Bates of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, a George W. Bush appointee, ordered Trump to restore the pages by midnight tonight.
Last month, President Trump scrubbed public health websites of all things related to “gender ideology.”

Interference in another country's internal affairs?
Sure, if you're the Vatican, or more specifically, the Vatican's big umbrella NGO of NGOs known as Caritas, whose U.S. arms include Catholic Charities and Catholic Relief Services.
According to the Associated Press:
VATICAN CITY -- The Vatican's charity said Monday that U.S. plans to gut USAID were “reckless” and could kill millions, while Pope Francis’ point man on development urged the Trump administration to remember Christian principles about caring for others.
Cardinal Michael Czerny, a Czech-born Canadian Jesuit, is one of the cardinals most closely associated with Francis’ pontificate and heads the Vatican office responsible for migrants, the environment, the church’s Caritas Internationalis charity and development.
Chelsea Clinton claims that 'misinformation' has been weaponized against her after claims she was gifted $84million from the under fire United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Elon Musk and President Donald Trump have attempted to shut down the embattled government agency tasked with humanitarian relief overseas after they agreed the organization was 'beyond repair' and wasting billions. The billionaire 'first buddy' led a civilian review of the federal government with Trump's go-ahead and decided this week to shut down the agency.
Will it help stave off a potential Armageddon?
NASA is training humanity’s most powerful telescope on a “city-killing” asteroid to determine whether or not we need to brace for deep impact.
Dubbed 2024 YR4, the building-sized space rock reportedly has a 1-in-43 chance of slamming into Earth in 2032 — up from about 1%, the Independent reported.
The asteroid was discovered by NASA in December and is reportedly at the top of NASA’s watch list when it comes to hazards from beyond. (Photo) With this “time-critical” threat potentially on our doorstep, the space agency has enlisted the aid of the James Webb telescope to study 2024 YR4 and gauge how much
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., faced widespread mockery after launching a tipline to "expose corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety." On Monday, Schumer shared a link calling on "whistleblowers" to report violations, arguing they "are a vital part of Congressional oversight to hold the administration accountable." The categories whistleblowers can report include "retaliation," "wasteful spending," "fraud," "criminal activity," and "other."
"Today, I’m calling on our brave public servants," the Senate Minority Leader wrote as he shared the tipline form on X.
A group is planning a nationwide economic blackout as a response to the rollback of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives sparked by the federal government. Why It Matters When President Donald Trump reentered office last month, one of his first calls to action was to end several of the DEI initiatives in the federal government. He mandated in an executive order that funds could be frozen for companies that do not comply. He also outlawed any messaging that promotes inclusion-based language. The orders have caused PBS to close its DEI office, while major companies like Amazon, Target and Google
It’s a Croc block!
Dozens of schools in at least 20 states across the U.S. have banned students from wearing Crocs to class.
School administrators claim students are more likely to struggle to walk when wearing the shoes — which could be deadly in an emergency. (Photo) “It’s actually a safety hazard,” Stoney Pritchett, principal of Bessemer City High School in Alabama, told TODAY. “Man, they can twist the knees, twist the ankles, things like that.”
Democrats are prepared to shut down the federal government during next month’s spending fight after becoming enraged over the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) financial audit of government spending.
The Democrats’ tactic puts them into a precarious position of supporting waste, fraud, and abuse, three items DOGE is tasked with cutting.
“I cannot support efforts that will continue this lawlessness that we’re seeing when it comes to this administration’s actions,” Sen. Andy Kim (D-NJ) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “And for us to be able to support government funding in that way only for them to turn it around, to dismantle the government.
Tom Homan confirmed that a series of leaks related to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations may have originated within the FBI.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported that a massive Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operation set to take place in Los Angeles, targeting thousands of illegal immigrants with criminal records, was leaked to the far-left press.
According to the leaked documents, the raid—dubbed Operation Compliance—was designed to be one of the largest immigration enforcement efforts in recent years, targeting primarily individuals with outstanding deportation orders, criminal convictions, and known gang affiliations.
Former Democratic donor-tuned-MAGA supporter Lindy Li dropped more details about Joe Biden and her former party’s shenanigans during the 2024 election. Li has been eager to spill all the things about the delusions that engulfed the Democrats, to the point where some thought they could win Iowa. Over $2 billion was raised and blown on Kamala Harris’ shambolic campaign for the White House. After some expenditures were made public, some megadonors warned they’d never write a check again.
Ms. Li said that after Joe Biden’s disastrous CNN debate that June, Hunter Biden commandeered the White House and sat in on sensitive meetings without a security clearance.
“GMA” host George Stephanopoulos has been “miserable” after being forced to apologize following the President Trump fiasco — and staffers are already speculating about who might replace him, The Post has learned
Stephanopoulos has been rumored to be on his way out, according to multiple network sources, since ABC News parent Disney agreed to settle a defamation suit in December over the anchor insisting on-air that Trump was “found liable for rape” — instead of sexual abuse — in a lawsuit by journalist E. Jean Carroll.
As part of Disney’s deal with Trump, the former Democratic operative — who co-hosts “GMA” with Roberts and Michael Strahan —
Comments:
If you don’t listen to any other video today, listen to Senator Kennedy say exactly what Trump and Musk are doing, and that the Democrats are completely overlooking it by focusing on process. Excellent commentary!
