for Terror Groups Revealed in Shocking Testimony
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 2/27/2025 10:17:33 PM
The more the Department of Government Efficiency - the DOGE - digs in, the more troubling things they find. This was not unexpected. In one of the latest examples, the House of Representatives DOGE Subcommittee, in questioning from Representative Tim Burchett (R-TN), heard some shocking details on how the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) was delivering American taxpayer dollars to Islamic terror groups. Let's look at a key excerpt. In this, Rep. Burchett questions the Executive Director of the Middle East Forum, Gregg Roman: Rep. Tim Burchett: Mr. Roman, are you aware that we are sending $40 million a week to the Taliban? Gregg Roman: Yes, sir.

There could be many reasons Friday's meeting in the Oval Office between President Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky disintegrated into the petulant Ukraine leader being tossed out of the White House on his ear.
It could be that he came into the meeting sulking about not being invited to the initial peace talks that took place last week between U.S. and Russian officials. It could be because Trump had hinted that the Ukrainian people should hold new elections. And it could be that Zelensky didn't like Trump's comments about his attire, which, admittedly, was ultra casual and in stark contrast
We're forced to wonder about the viability of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky's continued political future. Not only is he overseeing the loss of a big portion of his country to Russia, but as of this morning, he has angered and alienated the very nation that has been sending him billions of dollars' worth of support - the United States. This morning's meeting with President Trump and Vice President Vance saw Zelensky effectively defenestrated from the White House to the street.
Now a former Ukrainian MP (Member of Parliament) is calling for Zelensky to be impeached.
Democrat lawmakers are under fire for opposing a bipartisan bill that aims to stem the flow of fentanyl smuggled by drug traffickers.
The HALT Fentanyl Act, aimed at permanently classifying fentanyl analogs under Schedule I, faces resistance from a drug policy nonprofit supported by George Soros, which argues that the legislation would worsen mass incarceration and hinder research into these opioids. Democrats like New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker have echoed these concerns while attempting to delay the bill’s progress through amendments and procedural tactics, Fox News reported.
A Schedule I classification under U.S. federal law refers to drugs or substances deemed to have a high potential for abuse,
Five former secretaries of Defense have signed a letter protesting the firing by President Trump of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. C. Q. Brown, demanding the Senate refuse to confirm Trump’s nominee to replace Brown and for Congress to investigate the firing of Brown and other senior officers by Trump.
Trump nominated retired Air Force Lieutenant General Dan “Razin” Caine to replace Brown. Caine will need a waiver from Trump on meeting the legal requirements for the chairman.

It was fine to be annoying pro-Hamas college student under Joe Biden, but the adults are back in charge now, and hate crimes aren't going to go overlooked.
According to a report from Israel's Channel 12 News on Wednesday, a DOJ task force is looking into the pro-Hamas demonstrations that took place on college campuses after the October 7 attack on Israel by Hamas, which saw the murder of 1,200 innocents, as well as kidnappings and rapes.
This task force is being led by Leo Terrell, who told Channel 12 that those who actively attempted to restrain Jewish people from attending class on campus
One of the hallmarks of the radical left is their horror of the idea that somebody, somewhere, is having a good time. For evidence of this, just look at how the legacy media is handling this second Trump administration, which is very different from the first - and which everyone involved in seems to be having a ball.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who seems to be having the best time of all and teaching the legacy media and Democrats (but I repeat myself) a thing or two while she's at it,
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX), speaking at a House hearing on Wednesday, suggested President Donald Trump's efforts to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia could lead to World War III.
Understand that this woman is slowly becoming the leading voice in the Democrat Party right now. A media darling who now represents the resistance. And they don't care that her ability to reason and work through logical arguments is virtually non-existent.
Crockett, who has recently made multiple comments about the American people being too stupid to understand the complexities of the Democrat Party, went on a wild rollercoaster of a rant about Trump placating Putin

This story slipped quietly under the radar, but it turns out that the Biden administration had been suing several police and fire departments for neutral recruiting practices that judged candidates on their mental and physical aptitude and not gender or race. In other words, the defendants were being sued for hiring those who could actually do the job instead of lowering their standards to meet bogus DEI quotas. And the Trump administration just put an official end to all that nonsense.
On Wednesday, with the support of President Trump, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi dismissed several lawsuits
The ladies on "The View" seem to have an ongoing problem: having to clean up the things that they say.
Hence, the clarifications and the occasional reading of "legal notes."
But Joy Behar may have just stepped in it big time in an effort to attack Elon Musk. Then she may have made it worse with her attempted "clarification."
First, she claimed that President Donald Trump isn't bright enough to handle the job, so is relying on Musk. Then just like Rep. Marcy Kaptur (D-OH), who attacked Musk for only being a citizen for "22 years,"
During the first Trump administration I did not come close to being “tired of all the winning.” Much of the time was spent learning how to govern, like a baby giraffe standing up for the first time. Paul Ryan was, well, Paul Ryan, the Senate was split and many political appointees were simply not good, either for the job or people. But that was then, this is now. With a few exceptions, Trump’s personnel choices have been stellar, with the lesser character ones avoiding the requirement of Senate confirmation or rumors that quickly fade away as more facts come to light.
Democrats have found an immigrant they don't like, and that would be Elon Musk, who dared to support President Donald Trump during the campaign and now works with him to get to the bottom of government waste and fraud. One Democrat, though, Rep. Marcy Katpur of Ohio, had a particularly ugly moment using Musk's immigration status as a means to question his "loyalty."
"Mr. Musk has just been here 22 years," Kaptur said, as she complained about how he has citizenship with multiple countries. The congresswoman completely missed the point when it comes to how he is a citizen of the United States, and has been since 2002.

Federal workers in Washington, fired from their jobs as part of the Trump administration’s ongoing cuts, are being kept from getting unemployment checks, U.S. Sen. Patty Murray said Wednesday during a virtual press conference.
“We are hearing from literally hundreds of people … that they got this letter that said they were being fired for poor performance,” Murray said. “That has impacts beyond just the emotional ones you’re hearing and the fact that they’ve lost a job — but in many of those who are trying to collect unemployment, it is hampering them from collecting unemployment.” Three recently laid-off federal workers local to Washington
President Trump and Vice President JD Vance teamed up during a fiery White House meeting on Friday to epically put Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his place.
As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, Zelensky arrived at the White House on Friday to meet with President Trump to discuss his rare earth mineral rights proposal.
Ukraine agreed to Trump’s requested mineral rights deal with the US earlier this week to compensate Americans for the hundreds of billions of dollars the Biden regime had given them since the Ukraine-Russia war started three years ago.
Jill Biden’s former press secretary, Michael LaRosa, admitted the Biden White House covered up Joe Biden’s cognitive decline and “gaslighted” the public about his deteriorating condition.
For years, The Gateway Pundit documented Joe Biden’s cognitive decline.
The fake news media attacked the conservative media for posting videos of demented Biden wandering around lost and accused us of posting “cheap fakes.”
Last June, the Biden Camp and their stenographers in the media went into full-blown panic mode after a video of Biden wandering away from the G7 group went viral.
President Donald Trump will sign an executive order making English the official language of the United States.
Despite English being the predominant language, the U.S. has never had a national language at the federal level...
The summary of the order said the goal of making English the national language is to promote unity, establish efficiency in the government and provide a pathway to civic engagement.
The Oscars, the Pope and the Woke, Oh My!

As of this writing, Pope Francis is still alive but in serious condition.
This Sunday, the Oscars telecast will air and ironically, one of the Best Picture nominees is the film “Conclave” which is about the process to elect a new pope.
During my years at the New York Sun, I was frequently asked by my editor, Seth Lipsky, to cover current events involving Pope John Paul II and the priest scandals, presumably because I am a devout Catholic and had some access to the New York archdiocese and the then-archbishop of New York,

Former President Joe Biden told President Trump that he blamed fellow former President Barack Obama for the Democrats’ knockout loss in the 2024 election, the commander-in-chief revealed in a new interview.
Trump told the Spectator World he had visited the White House to meet with an “angry” Biden shortly after he defeated Vice President Kamala Harris — who took Biden’s place on the Democratic ticket after he was forced out of the race due to concerns over his age and abilities. (Photo's) “I asked him, I said, ‘So who do you blame?’ Because he was very angry, you know, he was a very angry guy, actually. And he said,
In consuming the news, one could easily conclude that, as we said earlier in the week, President Donald Trump and Elon Musk are carpet bombing the federal government. The wails and screeching breakdowns over the injustice of federal workers losing their jobs are ear-piercing. They are, we’re told, under attack.
After all, these are no everyday workers toiling for large corporations and small businesses – they’re federal employees who apparently are so indispensable to life as we know it that if they are no longer employed at taxpayers’ expense, America and maybe even western civilization will collapse.

A poll published this week by the firm Ipsos found Canada’s leftist Liberal Party overtaking the Conservatives in support for the first time since 2021, shortly before an expected election to replace Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
The survey, published on Wednesday in conjunction with the media outlet Global News, found the two parties within the margin of error of each other’s support. About 38 percent of respondents said they supported the Liberal Party, compared to 36 percent for the Conservatives. Support for the New Democratic Party (NDPs), a far-left rival to the Liberals, almost entirely collapsed to 12 percent. The poll’s margin of error is 3.8 percent.
After forces from the al-Qaeda affiliated Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) terrorist group conquered Damascus and overthrew Syria's Assad regime in December 2024, they urged the residents of the Valley of the Christians to surrender any weapons they kept for self-defense, telling them that civilians would not be harmed. Since the jihadists' takeover of Syria, however, around 500,000 Christians in the country have been faced with increased persecution and abductions
On February 16, more Christians... were abducted from another village in the area. Their kidnappers, according to sources on the ground, are torturing them.
On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) argued that the Trump administration hasn’t focused on the problems of everyday Americans, while Democrats are “continuing to make sure that we focus on trying to make life better for everyday Americans.” And “We have to drive down the high cost of living. We have to secure the border.”
Jeffries said, “Look, what we’ve seen from the Trump administration over the last several weeks is just a flood of unprecedented extremism and a parade of horribles that continue to be unleashed on the American people, while, at the same time, the Trump administration is not focused
Democrat governors came to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s defense after he was kicked out of the White House for making “disrespectful” remarks during a meeting with President Donald Trump.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D), Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D), Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D), and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) accused Trump and Vice President JD Vance of having “advanced Russia’s propaganda directly from the White House,” and of “embarrassing the United States on the world stage.”In a post on X, Shapiro issued a statement criticizing Trump and Vance for having “attacked President Zelenskyy,” adding that they had undermined “the safety and security of America
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) praised President Donald Trump for giving “a masterclass on how to stand up for America” after kicking Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky out of the White House after he made several “disrespectful” comments.
As Breitbart News’s Katherine Hamilton previously reported, Zelensky’s comments were made “in front of the media ahead of planned private talks and the expected signing of the much-discussed minerals deal.”After Zelensky was kicked out of the White House, the “White House confirmed” that Zelensky had not signed the minerals deal and Trump issued a statement in a post on Truth Social stating that he had “determined that President Zelensky is not ready
