I am a man of advanced years and much-reduced mental- and physical capacity thereby, so I’m having trouble dealing with all the MAGA / Trumpist / Musk-y goodness these days. Quite apart from Saturday’s posts, there’s this:
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Sec. Scott Turner has announced the end of Federal Housing Administration (FHA)-insured mortgages for any “non-permanent residents,” effectively eliminating illegal aliens’ access to the taxpayer-funded program.
…and this:
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is slashing 10,000 full-time employees as part of its effort to trim fat and reorient the department around Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s “Make America Health Again” (MAHA) agenda.
“We aren’t just reducing bureaucratic sprawl. We are realigning the organization with its core mission and our new priorities in reversing the chronic disease epidemic,” said HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. “This Department will do more — a lot more — at a lower cost to the taxpayer.”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that as many as 300 foreign students have had their visas revoked due to President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.
Rubio confirmed the number of revoked visas when speaking at a press conference in Guyana.
“Maybe more, it might be more than 300 at this point,” Rubio said. “We do it every day. Every time I find one of these lunatics, I take away their visa.”
Okay, let’s not let my enfeebled state and stamina be a hindrance to all this most excellent and long-overdue Chainsaw Activity.
So the big picture is that the current gov’t behavior is supposed to positively impact the content of my ass pocket?
I’ll believe it when I see it.
Until that time, it is all meaningless bullshit.

Right there with ya, ghost rider….er sniper, that is.
Like you, Kim, I am way too old and jaded to think that DJT will be able to change everything into good cigars and fine whiskey in four short years. We’ve seen promises from politicians come and go, yet we never seem to reach the golden ring. We have watched low politicians with high dreams waste our treasure on their pipe dreams. For eighty years since the last “great war” we waved the flag and shouted the cheers as they sent our youth, us, off on crusades that didn’t accomplish much more than fill our Cemetaries and empty our hearts.
But I have a young niece who holds a particularly close place in my otherwise hardened old heart, and my prayers in my waning years are that she will see a better life, in spite of the challenges that she faces. President Trump and his people will get us closer to my dream for my niece. I cannot believe otherwise.
