Trump’s Executive Order Confronts a
Long History of Veteran Neglect
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 5/31/2025 3:09:15 PM
In a bold effort to confront decades of shortcomings in veteran care, President Trump recently signed an Executive Order to establish the National Center for Warrior Independence—a dedicated initiative set to be built on the Veterans Affairs campus in West Los Angeles. With an ambitious target of housing 6,000 homeless veterans by 2028, the order also enacts sweeping reforms to reduce wait times at VA hospitals, expand virtual healthcare access, and reinstate accountability by removing employees found guilty of misconduct. Trump’s order marks a significant pivot in federal policy. It is the most comprehensive federal initiative in more than a decade aimed at combating veteran homelessness—and a long-overdue reckoning

When the left runs out of substantive arguments, they pull out the same tired talking points. Chicago’s far-left, radical mayor, Brandon Johnson, is the latest example.
During his weekly press conference, Johnson claimed the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is “an act of war” and that the Trump administration is similar to “the Third Reich.”
Johnson claimed Chicago is the most “pro-worker” city in the U.S., but is facing “hostility” from Washington.
Johnson whined, “The fact that the President of the United States of America is cutting off food supply and medicine to working people and families across this country — that is an act of war.”
An Egyptian national who came into the country two years ago and overstayed his visa has been charged in the gruesome terror attack that left six people injured in Boulder, Colo., Saturday, authorities said.
Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, was arrested at the scene, (Snip) Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) sources told Fox News Soliman is in the country illegally as a visa over-stay, who came in during the Biden administration.
He allegedly flew into the U.S. on Aug. 27, 2022, arriving at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) on a B1/B2 non-immigrant visa. Soliman was authorized to stay through Feb. 26, 2023, but never left,
Have you considered that you simply don't hate the press enough? If you think you do, you might find yourself reconsidering after reading this latest story.
As RedState reported, a pro-Palestinian terrorist in Colorado threw Molotov cocktails at peaceful marchers as they silently remembered the hostages being held by Hamas. The attack took place in Boulder, injuring at least five people. Police arrested Mohamad Soliman at the scene, with videos showing him shouting "Palestine is free" and "end Zionists" as he attempted to burn innocent people alive. [Tweet, video]
In the aftermath of such an attack,
If you’re old enough to remember when Bill Clinton was president, you would recall that he was a silver-tongued, energetic politician who could fire up his supporters and excite the Democrat base—that is, at least, until he met Monica Lewinsky.
There is little of that fire left in the two-term president, as he has for some time now seemed low-energy and not particularly passionate. On Sunday, however, he showed that he can still drop some all-time whoppers when the time is right.
Appearing on “CBS Sunday Morning,” the former president minimized the mental decline of Joe Biden
Uncontrolled wildfires raged through Los Angeles in January, all but destroying the neighborhoods of Pacific Palisades and Altadena. We at RedState covered extensively the mistakes made before the fires and after they broke out—including empty reservoirs, a missing mayor, a failure to clean out forests, a fire department that was as focused on social justice as much or more than it was about fighting fires, and more.
But now we’re in the aftermath.
Despite Mayor Karen Bass’ excited updates about how well it’s going, one Palisades resident begs to differ. In fact, he said recovery efforts are going extremely badly.
As a committed interventionist, John Bolton is, you’ll be shocked to learn, not on board with eliminating the Deep State’s cash cow that is USAID.
In voicing his dissatisfaction with the work of DOGE vis-à-vis USAID, he also pledged to bring back Voice of America, the U.S. government’s global propaganda machine. (For the last decade and longer, prior to its dismantling by the Trump administration, Voice of America had also distributed its content domestically, explicitly targeted at a domestic audience, illegally.)

Another Biden scandal is blowing up—this time in East Palestine, Ohio. Newly uncovered emails reveal that the Biden administration knew cancer-causing toxins may have been released into the community following a catastrophic train derailment, even as officials publicly claimed everything was under control.
The disaster began on Feb. 3, 2023, when a Norfolk Southern freight train carrying hazardous materials derailed and burst into flames near the small Ohio town. Among the wreckage were five railcars filled with vinyl chloride—a highly flammable, cancer-causing chemical. Fearing an explosion, authorities ordered evacuations and carried out a so-called “controlled release,” sending a toxic plume into the air and blanketing the area in chemicals
Don't Let CBO Scoring Fool You
4 replies
There's been a whole lot of agita from the right-hand side about the "reconciliation bill" — the Big Beautiful Bill — that passed the House a few days ago. A lot of it is based on the CBO scoring the bill as costing $4 trillion dollars in revenue. And why does the CBO think that? Because the CBO thinks the government is entitled to all the lovely tax money that would come in when the tax cuts from Trump's first term expire. But the BBB went and extended the tax cuts. Those rats.

At the very start of what was supposed to be a weeklong space mission, NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore had to wonder if they’d ever make it back to the Earth’s surface.
As Williams and Wilmore approached the International Space Station last year, the thrusters on their Boeing Starliner capsule gave out, leaving the spacecraft unable to move forward.
When they realized they might not be able to dock on the ISS, a frightening — and as it turned out, prophetic — thought entered their minds.
“If we weren’t able to dock, would we be able to make it back [to Earth]?,” Wilmore told the BBC. “We didn’t know.”

Trump by fleeing to Britain may be in
for a big surprise 12 replies
Since Trump began his second term, Britain has become a political escape hatch for American celebrities and wealthy Democrats.
It’s so popular that last week, the British Home Office released data showing that in the 12 months leading up to March, almost 7,000 US citizens applied to become British subjects or live here indefinitely — the highest number since such records began in 2004.
A third of those applications have been received since Trump took office at the start of 2025.

WASHINGTON — The Biden administration admitted possible cancer-causing toxins were spread in East Palestine, Ohio, following the Norfolk Southern train derailment in 2023, explosive new emails show, despite the White House insisting residents were safe.
“The occurrence of a cancer-cluster in EP [East Palestine] is not zero,” FEMA recovery leader James McPherson wrote in a March 29, 2024, email to other public health officials — a little more than a year after the crash.
“As you all are aware, the first 48 hours of the fire created a really toxic plume,” he said in the chain of communications, which were first reported by News Nation.

An illegal alien gang member who’d been detained since the Biden era was finally deported this month, but that’s now evidently a problem.
The illegal alien, alleged “former” MS-13 gang banger Jordin Melgar-Salmeron, was detained by immigration officials in 2022 after he completed a prison sentence for being in possession of an unregistered, sawed-off shotgun, according to The New York Times.
Melgar-Salmeron then lingered in detainment as the Biden administration put his case on hold. Once the Trump administration took over, they immediately sought to end the hold.

If the British coined the term “too clever by half,” Vice President JD Vance might own the political update of “too smart by 99%.”
And Donald Trump might wonder at what point he asks his veep: please stop helping — at least when it comes to Trump’s greatest legacy and biggest asset, the Supreme Court.
Vance recently offered his own take on the “role” of that body, in particular Chief Justice John Roberts’ “profoundly wrong sentiment” that the judiciary exists to “check the excesses of the executive.”
The vice president finger-wagged that this was “one-half” of the job; the “other half” was to stop a “small but substantial number”

MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz will seek to energize activists at Democratic state conventions in South Carolina and California on Saturday, as the party's 2024 vice presidential nominee works to keep up the high national profile he gained when Kamala Harris selected him as her running mate. Walz, a former schoolteacher who went to Congress and then became his state’s governor, will keynote the South Carolina gathering in Columbia, traditionally a showcase for national-level Democrats and White House hopefuls. Another leader who often appears on those lists, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore, spoke Friday night at the party’s fundraising dinner.
Hunter Biden was seen out and about with his family in Cape Town, South Africa, Friday amid Republicans' investigation into an alleged "conspiracy" related to his father's cognitive decline as president. The embattled son of the former president toured Cape Town with his wife, Melissa Cohen Biden, and son, Beau Biden Jr., driving a rented Toyota sedan, a big change from the black Chevy Suburbans he was used to traveling in before President Donald Trump yanked his Secret Service detail. In March, Trump terminated Hunter Biden's Secret Service detail after former President Joe Biden extended his son's detail indefinitely.
Man, it must be brutal being a Democrat right now, breathlessly waiting for the '28 presidential election so you can finally get Trump out of your head and get a good old progressive back in the Oval Office. The problem? The potential candidate list so far is laugh-out-loud pathetic, a sad list of mostly failed “leaders” who almost all carry mountains of political baggage around their necks. You’ve got to choose between the Queen of Emptiness and Word Salads, former Democrat presidential nominee and VP Kamala Harris, the walking meme that is NY Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the not ready for prime time Illinois governor,
Rosie O’Donnell left the U.S. in high dudgeon after President Donald Trump reclaimed the White House. Now she is saying – no, promising – a return is impossible until “this administration is completely finished, and hopefully held accountable for their crimes.”
The self-deported Ireland resident made the revelation in an interview with Variety chief correspondent Daniel D’Addario.
The interviewer asked the former daytime talk show host, “I was delighted to see you pop up on “Hacks” recently as well, playing yourself. Any other comedies you’re thinking about joining?”
O’Donnell responded by saying other projects have been in the pipeline, however the current occupant of the White House puts her off:
FBI confirms: Nellie Ohr lied to Congress

Newly declassified documents from a 2019 FBI analysis released on May 28, 2025 show that Nellie Ohr allegedly “knowingly“ provided false testimony under oath to Congress about her actions related to the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. Ohr was a Fusion GPS contractor who provided research and intel in the Crossfire Hurricane investigation. Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, played a central role in pushing for declassification of the analysis.
An analysis of the documents concluded that Ohr’s statements obstructed congressional investigations and violated federal statutes 18 USC §1001 (false statements) and 18 USC §1505 (obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and congressional committees).
Not content with claiming the Earth is going to spontaneously combust if all the world's nations don't send their residents back to the Stone Age, climate change activist Greta Thunberg is now headed to Gaza. As is always the case with communists, the cause is never the cause. It's just a means to an end, so the target is constantly shifting. Thunberg has decided that donning a keffiyeh and falsely screaming "genocide" will garner her the most attention at this moment.
In her latest stunt, she is now on a sailboat from Italy that is supposedly headed to Gaza to "break the siege."
On Friday, Joe Biden made his first public speech since news of his cancer diagnosis, and true to form, he made the moment about himself. Speaking at Veterans Memorial Park in New Castle, Del., Biden used the occasion not to focus on the brave men and women who gave their lives in combat but to relive personal memories and center the speech around his son Beau, who died of brain cancer, rather than in war.After making obligatory Memorial Day remarks, Biden shifted to talking about the “10th anniversary of the loss of my son Beau,” noting that he “spent a year in Iraq.”
Lester Holt hosted his last “NBC Nightly News” show on Friday after a 14 year tenure as its anchor. The highly decorated reporter bid viewers a farewell by reminding them of their core values that guide the team’s coverage.
“I’m so grateful for your trust around here,. Facts matter, words matter, journalism matters, and you matter,” Holt said.“Over the last decade, we have shared some dark and harrowing days and nights of our country, the pandemic, mass shootings, natural disasters, each testing our resilience and our compassion. That’s why I often like to leave you with something to smile about, moments that reassure and connect us,” he added.
Trump is not a fascist . . . but . . .
20 replies
At the outset, let me state my bona fides. I voted for Trump three times. I publicly supported his candidacy back when the media deemed him and his supporters like me stupid racists.
That was back when “Trump is literally Hitler” was the meme of the moment amongst the kind of people who don’t know the meaning of Hitler and don’t know the meaning of “literally.” Which is to say, most of the current mainstream media.
For the record, Trump is not Hitler, not literally or metaphorically, nor is he a fascist.
Contrary to popular belief engendered by the lamestream media, the word “fascist” does not mean “Republican.”

It’s Graduation Time Again

Americans may not have as many rituals as some other peoples do, but we have some. One of those is graduation, symbolizing the transition from one stage of life to another and a celebration of a young person’s accomplishments. (We may actually overdo these, as what was once a transition from college and high school studies is now often celebrated from even pre-nursery school.) Still, it plays a significant part of life, structuring time and change. Parents and grandparents who sat through boring recitals, sports events, prize days, supported kids dealing with difficult interpersonal issues,
