James Carville admits Trump’s fast pace
is leaving Democrats reeling: ‘We are overwhelmed’
Posted By: Imright, 2/15/2025 2:43:32 AM
Democratic Party strategist James Carville admitted that the pace at which President Trump is fulfilling his executive duties is throwing his party off balance. In the latest episode of the “Politics War Room” podcast, Carville lamented how Democratic lawmakers are floundering in trying to stop the president’s second term agenda. “We’re getting overwhelmed,” he told podcast co-host Al Hunt. “Things that we thought that would kill a political career, would be poisonous for whatever reason, this guy keeps chugging along.”

Actor Robert Picardo, who played The Doctor on Star Trek: Voyager, said that America should cancel Presidents Day due to Trump allegedly canceling “our justice system” and other causes.
Picardo issued his decree on the social media platform Blue Sky.“Being that papers straws, The Gulf of Mexico and our justice system have been recently cancelled, let’s cancel Presidents’ Day,” he said.

This weekend, Kamala Harris took in some Broadway.
And she reminded America that we truly dodged a bullet by not electing her.
She and her husband Doug Emhoff met with the cast of “A Wonderful World: The Louis Armstrong Musical,” and she gave a pep talk that was in the style made famous by Damon Wayans’ “In Living Color” character Oswald Bates — a jailbird who delivers soliloquys which are merely a string of big words that amount to a whole lotta nonsense.
In the video, she was stumbling and bumbling through yet another word salad filled with meaningless platitudes.
President Donald Trump’s executive order banning birthright citizenship for illegal aliens, tied to the invasion on the border, tees up a major Supreme Court case that could become a historic Trump win that fixes a growing, decades-long problem.
Several of the executive orders (EOs) and presidential actions on Inauguration Day — January 20 — dealt with immigration and the southern border. Trump declared that what is happening on the border is an invasion of the United States and issued a proclamation banning the entry of those illegal aliens into the country.And in EO 14160 — dealing with birthright citizenship — President Trump also ordered his government not to issue

That Trump Derangement Syndrome is Real (VIDEO) 4 replies
During the joint interview he did with President Trump and Sean Hannity this weekend, Elon Musk described the moment that he realized Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing.
Of course, you could ask any Trump supporter pretty much anywhere and they can tell you stories proving that TDS is real, but Musk did not get involved in politics until recent years.
He notes that sufferers of TDS are simply not rational, making it extremely difficult to talk to them. Hannity notes that people on the left used to love Elon Musk.
Trump is also funny in this because he is sitting next to Musk, laughing through the whole segment.
In an all-too-familiar move, Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA), who has been embroiled in scandal and controversy, managed to shift blame for recent plane crashes onto President Donald Trump. Although the crashes occurred under the Trump administration, Swalwell’s partisan rhetoric once again attempts to deflect responsibility from the previous administration’s actions. His remarks exemplify how some Democrats continue to blame Trump for anything and everything, even when it lacks justification.
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) announced Monday that some $4.7 trillion in payments from the Treasury Department were missing a critical tracking code which made tracing the transactions “almost impossible.”
The transactions were reportedly missing the Treasury Account Symbol, or TAS, an identification code which links a Treasury payment to a budget line item, according to DOGE, which described the use of such code as a “standard financial process.”
“In the Federal Government, the TAS field was optional for ~$4.7 Trillion in payments and was often left blank, making traceability almost impossible,” read an X post from DOGE.
SpaceX personnel met with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on Monday to discuss potential improvements in safety protocols following recent plane crashes. The meeting is part of an ongoing effort to enhance aviation standards and ensure that SpaceX's operations comply with the highest safety regulations. The discussions are expected to focus on identifying key areas where procedures can be strengthened to prevent further incidents.Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy recently welcomed a team from SpaceX to the Air Traffic Control System Command Center in Virginia as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) seeks input from Elon Musk’s company
Passengers who miraculously survived the upside-down crash of a Delta Air Lines flight at Toronto Pearson International Airport shared their amazement after they scrambled to safety onto the runway.

As RedState has documented, the Trump White House and the Associated Press (AP) have been at odds in recent weeks over the latter's refusal to use the term "Gulf of America" to refer to the area formerly known as the Gulf of Mexico, which Trump renamed via an executive order on his first day back in office. The dispute has cost the AP access to the Oval Office for the informal pressers (known as "gaggles," which President Donald Trump holds often) as well as Air Force One, but they still retain access to the White House complex, including the press briefing room.
Further, in remarks reported on Monday,
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview that he has already picked investigators who will look into the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.
“We’ve already identified folks that’ll be in charge of that full investigation inside the Pentagon,” Hegseth said in the interview Thursday. “I don’t have a timeframe on it. Sadly, we’ve already waited two-and-a-half years, three years since what occurred. I don’t want to wait longer, but I always want to get it right,” he said.
Acting Commissioner Michelle King, who was appointed last month, has been forced out after attempting to stonewall an investigation into massive fraud within the agency—an investigation spearheaded by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
King’s abrupt departure comes after Musk’s team requested access to critical data that could expose widespread abuse and fraudulent claims draining the Social Security fund.
Far-left Washington Post reported:
The acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration left her job this weekend after a clash with billionaire Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service over their attempts to access sensitive government records,
Newly appointed Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth claims his family was targeted by the outgoing Biden administration with an audit from the IRS.
“Of course the outgoing Biden IRS rushed an ‘audit’ of the incoming SecDef. Total sham,” Hegseth wrote on his official X account Monday, including a photo of an IRS document addressed to him and his wife.
The document said the couple owes the government $33,558.16, which needs to be paid immediately to avoid further penalties.

It’s unclear what year or years the document is addressing.

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appears on Meet the Press to discuss his position toward ending the conflict with Russia. Within the conversation [04:11], Zelenskyy said, “I will never accept any decisions between the United States and Russia about Ukraine.”
President Zelenskyy represents the interests of the European Union, multinational corporations, various elements of NATO memberships, the World Economic Forum, the CIA division within the U.S. State Dept., western banks and a confab of various western intelligence operations. After that, he represents the interests of Ukrainians. This is why he will not permit elections. (Video)

CBS News was a dumpster fire on Sunday. Face the Nation’s Margaret Brennan thought the Nazi Holocaust occurred because there was too much freedom of speech and the press in Germany. Then, 60 Minutes decided to produce a segment about Germany waging a total war on freedom of speech, taking offenders away…on a train ride. Finally, there is this pity segment on government workers who are lost after getting fired.
Rush: Four Years On

Four years ago today, just about this time, I was pottering about getting ready to guest-host The Rush Limbaugh Show when the telephone rang. It was Kraig Kitchin, his longtime friend (and head of the network that distributed his show), calling to break the news that Rush had died earlier that morning.
Post-Limbaugh talk radio seems smaller to me than it once did - not just because Rush had a big personality, but because he managed to fit the flotsam and jetsam of the news cycle into the big picture.

You know how the Democrats have been whining about the youthfulness of the Department of Government Efficiency staffers, claiming that Elon Musk’s DOGE team couldn’t possibly understand what they’re doing because some are in their early twenties and at least one is in his late teens?
Yeah, well that same bunch voted in early February to make 24-year-old liberal activist David Hogg the vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee. Hypocrisy, much?
As our friends at PJ Media reported, Hogg’s already wearing out his welcome because he seems to be using his new position as a giant personal piggy bank:
In determining citizenship, the United States has a very unusual approach. You’re a citizen if you were born here. (You’re also a citizen if you were born abroad under certain circumstances, but that’s a different issue.)
That’s a bit crazy, because it means that if a woman (aren’t you glad we don’t have to refer to them as “child-birthing persons” anymore?) makes it into the United States, legally or illegally, in time to give birth – right on the north bank of the Rio Grande, for example – her baby is an American citizen.
The mother doesn’t magically become an American citizen by giving birth in America,
Jessica Tarlov, one of the liberal voices at Fox News, made a hilarious claim on a podcast last week that I couldn’t help but laugh at. According to her, the “chaos” of the Trump administration is already turning off his voters.
Her proof? She shared a conversation she supposedly had with a 20-year-old college student from the Midwest who comes from a conservative, pro-Trump family. The student, who had previously reached out for career advice, recently emailed Tarlov to express his changing perspective on Trump.
“I’ve really appreciated hearing what you have had to say the past week on ‘The Five’ and your podcasts with Scott,”
Well, this is interesting. What a surprise. Dirty Judge Jack McConnell, who believes he was recently elected US president, halted President Trump’s current spending freeze. But Judge McConnell is not some innocent bystander. Judge McConnell’s organization has received $117.6 million in government funding in total (ending in 2023). Maybe that’s why he wanted the money to keep flowing. He’s expecting several more million this year!

The former chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC) delivered an insulting on-air fit of rage over Elon Musk and his presence at the White House.
Michael Steele’s drama-filled meltdown on MSNBC included calling on Democrats to “get off your fat ass” and do something about President Donald Trump’s power and Musk’s work with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
“What would you have us do?” Symone Sanders Townsend asked Steele on “The Weekend.”
The former RNC chair erupted in his response. (X) “I would like you to show that you give a damn!” Steele replied.
“That you got a little emotion about the fact that people are losing their jobs indiscriminately!
Half of New York City’s deputy mayors dramatically resigned Monday in the wake of Eric Adams’ controversial reprieve from his historic corruption case by President Trump’s Justice Department.
The resignations of Adams’ four senior aides — led by First Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer — thrusts City Hall even deeper into uncharted territory as the mayor faces mounting questions about whether he can govern the city.
The four deputy mayors — Torres-Springer, Deputy Mayor for Operations Meera Joshi, Deputy Mayor for Health Human Services Anne Williams-Isom and Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Chauncey Parker — resigned as a rally in support of Adams unfolded in Rehoboth Cathedral in Brooklyn.
Emergency crews are responding to a crash involving a Delta Air Lines plane that arrived Monday at Toronto Pearson Airport from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
CP24 in Canada reports as many as eight people were hurt in the emergency, though the extent of their injuries was not immediately clear.
The FAA released this statement following the crash:
Delta Air Lines Flight 4819, operated by Endeavor Air, crashed while landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Canada around 2:45 p.m.local time on Monday, February 17. All 80 people on board were evacuated.
UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer declared his willingness to deploy British troops to Ukraine “in harm’s way” to deter Russian aggression hours before he is set to join an ’emergency summit’ on the matter in Paris on Monday.
The United States and Russia are meeting to discuss the Ukraine war in Saudi Arabia this week, but European leaders have not been invited to send delegations. Apparently prompted by being left behind in this regard, and likely too by the Trump White House’s suggestion that European nations actually decide what they are actually capable of doing on Ukraine, European leaders are meeting in Paris today for an “emergency summit”.
Parts of the Northeast and mid-Atlantic could be in for their biggest snowstorm of the season later this week if all the pieces come together, according to the FOX Forecast Center.
Confidence is increasing, with computer forecast models showing an impactful winter storm developing in the Plains and tracking across the central and eastern US. However, uncertainty remains about the system’s exact track and what the impacts will be for those along the heavily populated Interstate 95 corridor.
The energy for this storm moves out of the Rockies and into the Plains on Monday before heading east.
