Those, who have the command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, and have it in their power to make what revolutions they please.
Thus, there is no end to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of an armed people. — Aristotle

Fact Sheet: President Donald J. Trump Withdraws the United States from International Organizations that Are Contrary to the Interests of the United States

WITHDRAWING FROM INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS: Today, President Donald J. Trump signed a Presidential Memorandum directing the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations that no longer serve American interests.

  • The Memorandum orders all Executive Departments and Agencies to cease participating in and funding 35 non-United Nations (UN) organizations and 31 UN entities that operate contrary to U.S. national interests, security, economic prosperity, or sovereignty.
  • This follows a review ordered earlier this year of all international intergovernmental organizations, conventions, and treaties that the United States is a member of or party to, or that the United States funds or supports.
  • These withdrawals will end American taxpayer funding and involvement in entities that advance globalist agendas over U.S. priorities, or that address important issues inefficiently or ineffectively such that U.S. taxpayer dollars are best allocated in other ways to support the relevant missions.

RESTORING AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY: President Trump is ending U.S. participation in international organizations that undermine America’s independence and waste taxpayer dollars on ineffective or hostile agendas.

  • Many of these bodies promote radical climate policies, global governance, and ideological programs that conflict with U.S. sovereignty and economic strength.
  • American taxpayers have spent billions on these organizations with little return, while they often criticize U.S. policies, advance agendas contrary to our values, or waste taxpayer dollars by purporting to address important issues but not achieving any real results.
  • By exiting these entities, President Trump is saving taxpayer money and refocusing resources on America First priorities.

PUTTING AMERICA FIRST ON THE GLOBAL STAGE: President Trump has consistently fought to protect U.S. sovereignty and ensure international engagements serve American interests.

  • Immediately upon returning to office, President Trump initiated the withdrawal of the United States from the World Health Organization and the Paris Climate Agreement.
  • On Day One of his Administration, President Trump also signed a Presidential Memorandum to notify the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development that its Global Tax Deal has no force or effect in the United States, and direct an investigation into whether foreign countries have tax rules in place that are extraterritorial or disproportionately affect American companies.
  • Just weeks later, President Trump signed an Executive Order withdrawing the United States from the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) and prohibiting any future funding for the UN Relief and Works Agency for the Near East (UNRWA).
  • He has prioritized American interests by redirecting focus and resources toward domestic priorities such as infrastructure, military readiness, and border security, and acting swiftly to protect American companies from foreign interference.

On This Day: Washington orders Lee to defend New York

Cambridge, Massachusetts

Writing urgently from his headquarters, Gen. George Washington ordered Maj. Gen. Charles Lee to proceed to New York with “all possible speed,” warning that British ships fitting out in Boston were, in his estimation, bound for the city and aimed at seizing the Hudson River. Washington understood that New York was the strategic key to the continent: its loss would give the British command of the interior and open a direct corridor to Canada.

Though often at odds with Lee, Washington pressed him to act decisively, raising fresh volunteers, calling out New Jersey forces, securing military supplies, and disarming known loyalists.

What Separates Tim Walz From Other Democrats Is He Got Caught.

That Tim Walz is abandoning his reelection campaign for Minnesota governor amid a maddening multibillion-dollar welfare fraud scandal should serve as a big reminder: Democrats are robbing you every day and hardly even trying to hide it.

Recall Walz as the stereotypical self-abasing Democrat white male, presumably heterosexual, who was inexplicably chosen to be Kamala Harris’ running mate in the 2024 election. His stint in that role was the equivalent of a 300-pound belly flop into a pool full of sand, with memorable moments like when he said he rode his bicycle as a child and was “proud of that service” or otherwise was proven to have lied when he referred to “the weapons of war that I carried in war.” (He never saw combat.)

Now, however, Walz is most known as the Minnesota governor who oversaw and enabled a years-long scam in which Somalis occupying large swaths of his state were pocketing hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars with fake child care and health care operations that provided no services to anyone at all. The scheme was uncovered mostly through federal prosecutions, which were then covered by our dying national news media. But most devastating for Walz and the state’s whole government was a 45-minute video produced by a 23-year-old YouTuber who demonstrated just how brazen the fraud was by simply knocking on “child care center” doors — only to be greeted by savage Somalis who spoke next to no English and had no kids inside.

The mass fraud was made possible by obscene welfare programs that Democrats like Walz — especially Walz — champion in order to lock in votes from impoverished foreigners and otherwise ne’er-do-wells who have no interest in working. “We have to make it easier for folks to be able to get into that business and then to make sure that folks are able to pay for that,” Walz said at the vice presidential debate last year. “We were able to do it in Minnesota.”

When he announced his withdrawal from reelection this week, he did so with typical Democrat energy, which is to say he claimed to be the victim honorably stepping aside, selflessly putting the well-being of others first. “Every minute I spend defending my own political interests would be a minute I can’t spend defending the people of Minnesota against the criminals who prey on our generosity and the cynics who prey on our differences,” he said.

They play in your face and then call you the problem for noticing. Walz’s Minnesota welfare scheme was every bit a fraud as his and Kamala’s 2024 campaign was. That pathetic 100-day operation likewise saw more than a billion dollars shoved into the pockets of consultants and production companies based on the media-perpetuated lie that Kamala Harris was a legitimate contender for the presidency and that Walz, a fraudster, was capable of serving in the White House, too.

Remember how Democrats recoiled in absolute horror when Elon Musk’s DOGE effort attempted to clip a few million from the federal budget, including the unending flood of money that we send overseas called “foreign aid”? That’s all your money, and they claw for each and every dollar in order to send it all to people just like those Somali scammers.

Democrats lie and steal. Then they resent you for finding out.

A humanist system rests on humans and you can’t have humanity be dependent on “because mommy wants me.” That is what we have now and it’s ontologically indefensible and philosophically infantile. Sorry. Truth must be told. – Sarah Hoyt

 

Are the Unborn People?  
The pivotal point the abortion debate turns is not whether abortion itself is right or wrong, but whether the unborn are “persons.”

( “point upon which the abortion debate turns is not whether abortion itself is right or wrong…”  I disagree, and say it does matter, but read the article)

In general, it seems that people are quick to proclaim that “words matter” and that logic and science are key, except when it comes to certain issues. On the topic of abortion, many have attempted to argue, despite clear science and logic, that because the subject is not specifically addressed within our founding documents, the right to life for those who are unborn is not an absolute certainty (i.e., in some cases a babies “right to life” appears to currently depend, inconsistently, on whether the child is “wanted” or “unwanted”).

Similarly, there are Christians who argue that because the term “abortion” is not found in the Bible, God’s intent on this matter is somehow neutral or unclear—thus conveniently leaving us to decide this matter of profound importance for ourselves as to what is right versus what is wrong. Such an approach is disingenuous, intellectually dishonest, and illogical, for subjects that might appear to be unaddressed in the first instance can easily be illuminated by other issues and with reference to other information.

Are the Unborn People?

The choice of words that were purposely selected for use in the Bible are important. And in a world full of shifting truths and changing definitions, the words and pages of the Bible have remained—and will remain—unchanged (Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). But not every practice/topic is addressed, and the Bible does not claim to answer all of our questions.
There are many mysteries that surround us which will unfortunately remain unanswered until the end of time. The topic of abortion, however, is not one of them. That is because the answer to a much bigger primary and fundamental question, whether the unborn are “persons” or “people,” has been shared with mankind. Although some Christians claim the status of personhood for the unborn to be unclear, the Bible makes an important—but not very well known—Old Testament reference at the end of Psalm 22 (in verse 32):

“The generations to come will be told of the Lord, that they may proclaim to a people yet unborn the deliverance you have brought (emphasis added).”

Even though this passage does not, as some would prefer, specifically declare verbatim that “the unborn are people,” it leaves little room for doubt. Although the wording could easily have referenced “future generations” instead of “a people yet unborn” (as most of us probably would have written it), an intentional choice was made in this passage to highlight the unborn as “people,” thereby making its meaning sufficiently clear.

It is also important to note other terms that the Bible does not use in reference to the unborn. For example, this specific passage does not refer to:

  • entities;
  • spirits;
  • organisms (or future organisms);
  • “products of conception, a medical term that is currently in use (or future “products of conception”);
  • clumps or groups of cells (or future clumps or future groups of cells);
  • almost people (or future people);
  • non-persons;
  • the non-living or the non-existent;
  • soon-to-be-people, or anything else that would leave doubt as to their status as persons.

(note that the issue goes even deeper, for while we as human beings think of the unborn as beginning to exist at conception, because God is not bound by space and time, it is likely that our Creator thinks of us as people even prior to our conception (see for example Jeremiah 1:5: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you” (emphasis added), meaning that all past, present, and future generations are considered as “people” to God).

AWFL- Affluent White Female Liberal

 

It’s Already Happening: AWFLs Who Converted to Islam Are Going Full-Blown Karen on It
God works in mysterious ways, my friends.

He sent a raven, an animal considered unclean to the Jewish people, to feed Elijah when he was in hiding from King Ahab.

He gave the Israelis in exile a bronze serpent to look upon to cure their snakebites in the desert, in spite of serpents being considered evil.

And now, God is sending the world’s greatest predator, the first-world leftist white woman, upon the Islamic world.

Last week, I wrote about how the new leftist trend for 2026 surfaced early in the form of leftist white women converting to Islam for the Gram. Gone are the days of declaring your bisexuality or your gender being “non-binary.” Now it’s all about putting on a hijab and giving praise to Allah.

But if you thought these women were converting to Islam to obey the faith and keep to its very misogynistic and homophobic tenets, then I regret to inform you that these are AWFLs, and the only religion they adhere to is the one where they are god.

As I predicted, these leftist white women are now discovering that their “religion of peace” is actually very intolerant of all the things their ideology told them to hold dear, such as gays, transgender people, and even the victimhood of women. As it turns out, Islam doesn’t just reject these things; they actively toss members of the LGBTQ+ community off the top of buildings and consider women to be second-class citizens who have no rights.

But never fear, these converts who still adhere to the religion of “ME” are here to peck-hand and finger wag Muslim men into having the correct beliefs and the acceptable behaviors that will take all the problematic issues out of the faith that has plagued it for the thousands of years it’s been around.

Let’s start with white savior A, who has a message to Muslims who are being homophobic and transphobic. She says they need to be more accepting, not just to stop the genocide of LGBTQ+ people, but because it fuels the genocide of Muslims, because being homophobic and transphobic gives people the excuse to be cool with Muslim genocide.

She ends by stating that being so phobic is pushing away people who are gay and trans from Islam and that they need to humble themselves before Allah because he knows best. Apparently, she knows Allah better than the Imams, and why not? She’s a white leftist woman.

While that was hilarious, I think this next one is even funnier.

Here we have another AWFL complaining about Muslim men who need to “leave hijabi women alone” and stop “haram-policing” women like her. She says she wants a gender separation in women’s online spaces, just like she has at the mosque she attends.

I’m no expert, but I’m pretty sure this woman is doing many things considered “haram” (forbidden) by Islamic standards, and she doesn’t know that because she converted yesterday and already thinks she’s an expert.

In both videos, we see the hubris of the AWFL. So confident in their ignorance that you could shove facts and established rules in their faces and they would brush it off angrily and tell you to stop being problematic while they live out “their truth.”

They clearly haven’t been a part of the religion for long because if they were truly experienced with it, or even looked into it deeper than the likes and views they get for cosplaying as a faithful Muslim, they’d learn that expulsion of gays and transgender people is the point. If given a free hand, these people would be decorating the pavement with “queer” blood like they were painting a Jackson Pollock.

Moreover, they would know that a woman disobeying the rules comes with real punishments that don’t involve a strict talking to. More like a whip to the back or even a stoning.

And if they really adhere to the way, then they’ll get that wakeup call, but in the meantime, I can’t help but laugh as I watch the very thing that plagued Western culture now begin to infect Middle-Eastern culture.

The question is, how long before these women appear in videos, tearfully talking about how they had to walk away from Islam because it was just too problematic?

And another question to ask: How many will be allowed to?

And I helped!

Explosion of Silence: ATF Gets 150,000 eForm Submissions On First Day of Zero Dollar Tax Stamps.

Gun owners from all across the country—except, of course, for California, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Washington, D.C.—can celebrate the New Year with a bang! Or, at least a suppressed bang, that is.

After Congress passed, and President Donald Trump signed into law, the One Big, Beautiful Bill last summer, the extra $200 tax on firearm suppressors, short-barrel rifles and short-barrel shotguns is no more.

During the final few months of 2025, many suppressor companies were known to cover the tax for suppressor buyers if they chose to make their purchase ahead of January 1 and the numbers noticeably increased before the holidays.

But with the ringing in of the New Year, suppressor purchases skyrocketed as expected. All signs suggest 2026 will be the Year of the Suppressor.

Not A Typo

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives informed NSSF that on Thursday, January 1, 2026, alone, an unprecedented surge in e-Forms submissions were being processed. That total was approximately 150,000 e-Forms. For an eye-popping comparison, last year, ahead of the $200-to-$0 tax change, typical daily volume on e-Forms for suppressors, SBRs and SBSs would hover closer to around 2,500.

That’s not a typo. Americans are taking advantage of the tax reduction on National Firearms Act (NFA) items—including firearm suppressors, SBSs and SBRs—in a big, big way.

That data tracks with other data points NSSF has seen in recent years and all expectations are that growth in the number of Americans who own a suppressor will explode.

On This Day: Washington asks Connecticut to help defend New York

Cambridge, Massachusetts

Anxious over the fate of New York, George Washington wrote to Connecticut Gov. Jonathan Trumbull, warning that British ships fitting out in Boston were, in his judgment, bound for New York. Washington cautioned that if the British seized the city and the North River, they would command the country and reopen communications with Canada. He therefore “begged the favor” of Trumbull’s prompt assistance so he could dispatch Maj. Gen. Charles Lee with volunteers willing to join in fortifying and defending New York.

“There is great reason to believe that this Armament, if not immediately designed against the City of New-York is nevertheless intended for Long Island; and as it is a matter of the utmost importance to prevent the Enemy from possessing themselves of the city of New York, and the North River, which would give them the command of the Country, and the Communication with Canada.”

ON THIS DAY: COL. HENRY KNOX

“I beg the favor of you to interpose your good offices and interest in the matter, and to encourage men to go on this important business, and as expeditiously as possible, for counteracting any designs our enemies may have against us in that quarter—Every necessary expense attending their march and stay will be borne by the Public.”

Washington also wrote to John Adams, urging prompt attention to the situation and seeking his judgment both on the wisdom of the plan and on whether it fell within Washington’s authority as commander in chief. As events moved quickly, Washington awaited Adams’s counsel.

 

NYC mayoral aide Cea Weaver who says whites owning houses is racist bursts into TEARS when asked about her mother’s $1.4m Craftsman home

A woke aide to New York City‘s new socialist mayor burst out crying when confronted over her assertion that it is racist for white people to own homes – despite her own mother owning a $1.4m Craftsman house.

Cea Weaver, who runs Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Office to Protect Tenants, was overcome with emotion when confronted outside her apartment in Brooklyn on Wednesday morning.

The 37-year-old began running down the street after seeing a Daily Mail reporter outside her home, then said ‘No’ through tears when asked if she wanted to comment on her professor mother Celia Appleton’s ownership of the $1.4 million property in fast-gentrifying Nashville.

Weaver appeared to be walking towards a nearby subway station, but then turned back and ran inside her home, which has a ‘Free Palestine‘ poster taped to one of its windows.

She was subsequently seen peering out the same window with the poster in it.

Weaver previously tweeted that ‘homeownership is a weapon of white supremacy’ and that ‘homeownership is racist’ in social media posts that also urged people to ‘impoverish the white middle class.’

In another Twitter missive from 2018, Weaver wrote: ‘There is no such thing as “good gentrifier,” only people who are actively working on projects to dismantle white supremacy and capitalism and people who aren’t.’

Weaver further called on people to ‘seize private property’ and called for the election of communist lawmakers.

Tracing of Brown University Killer’s Gun Should Shatter Tracing Myths

The mainstream media has a real thing for gun tracing. They’re quick to quote anti-gunners, both activists and politicians, who say that so-called ghost guns are a problem because they can’t be traced. This supposedly deprives law enforcement of a serious tool they need.

Of course, no one has ever found a case that’s been broken by gun tracing, and even if there is one, the truth is that tracing only really works to find the original buyer.

This was just illustrated rather well in a report about how the tracing of the Brown University shooter’s gun has been completed.

The origin of the 9mm pistol that [the killer] fired in a Brown University lecture hall is not known to the public.

But investigators have completed their trace of the gun, which means they have identified the first person who purchased the weapon after it was manufactured and distributed, according to Andrew Wozniak, a spokesman for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

If that first purchaser was [the killer], then investigators already know where he procured the gun that he fired on Dec. 13, killing two people and injuring nine.

However, if [he] was not the first purchaser, what investigators know is not as clear, based on Wozniak’s limited comments.

“ATF has completed traces of the firearms in this case,” he said, adding that the agency “cannot publicize the details of those firearm traces at this time.”

In the lexicon of the ATF’s tracking center, a complete trace means that investigators tracked the gun along a path from either its manufacturer (or an importer, if it was foreign-made); through a chain of distribution, which typically involves a wholesaler as well as one or two retailers; and on to the first purchaser, Wozniak said.

And if it went beyond that initial purchase, even in a universal background check state, things get virtually impossible.

In this case, they know who had the gun and are trying to see if they can find a link to someone who may have helped him. Unless the gun was originally purchased by a third party a few weeks or so before the shooting, or if the original buyer reported the gun stolen, then there’s not a whole lot else to be learned.

Once a gun leaves the hands of the original buyer, the trail largely dies. That’s true even in universal background check states, where people might be required to go to a gun store to transfer a firearm, but they’re not required to remember which one they went to or anything else. Depending on how long ago such a purchase was, the original buyer may legitimately not remember anything about the transaction.

And that’s if everyone is trying to do everything lawfully and you have a near-totalitarian regime in place to make everyone do everything exactly like they’re supposed to.

Realistically, though, even that wouldn’t be the case in most states.

For all the hysteria about gun tracing, the people screaming the loudest don’t actually understand how tracing works and what its limitations are. In this case, we see a report that explicitly outlines what the ATF can learn from a trace, and that ain’t much.

While it’s a tool law enforcement uses, they don’t bank on that solving crimes, and they have never gotten a conviction based primarily on gun-tracing data. They do actual police work because that’s what puts criminals behind bars.

In this case, they hope they can find anyone who helped, but let’s be real, they’re not likely to find one. The only reason they found one in the Columbine case was that the killers were underage, and they needed someone older to buy the guns. That’s it, and that’s rare.

I’ll be shocked if they learn anything useful this time.
