| π From The Desk Of Clayton Keirns, Editor In Chief π πSan Diego, CA π | WHEW! I think it's safe to say that President Trump has more energy than the average 26 year old. | Trump probably got more done today alone than Biden did in 4 years. He laid down new tariffs on China, released the Epstein Files, chatted it up with Conservative influencers…AND hosted British Prime Minister Keir Starmer for several hours at the White House. | Obviously a lot happened today so let's get right into it! | In today's email: π£️ Vance confronts the British π£ More USAID scam π️ Epstein list | | ✅TRACKING TRUMP✅ | | | ✨ NATO: President Trump reaffirmed his stance against Ukraine joining NATO ahead of his scheduled meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House. During an Oval Office meeting with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Trump stated outright that Ukraine's NATO membership is not an option, rejecting the idea of even considering it. His comments reinforce his administration's shift in approach toward Ukraine and NATO alliances. | π¬π§ JD VANCE: Vice President JD Vance confronted British Prime Minister Keir Starmer in the Oval Office over concerns about free speech restrictions in the UK. Vance previously criticized Europe at the Munich Security Conference for retreating from fundamental values shared with the U.S. When questioned, he stood by his remarks, emphasizing that restrictions on free speech in Britain impact not only its citizens but also American technology companies and U.S. interests. He confirmed that the issue would be a topic of discussion during their meeting. | π¨ BIDEN-ERA LAWSUITS: President Trump announced the end of DEI initiatives in hiring, emphasizing a merit-based approach. Attorney General Pam Bondi followed up by dismissing multiple Biden-era lawsuits against police and fire departments that used race-neutral hiring standards. The dismissed cases involved lawsuits against cities and states for requiring written and physical exams, which the Biden DOJ had claimed were discriminatory. The Trump Administration argues that maintaining high standards ensures public safety and prioritizes the most qualified candidates. |

| | π€ Daily Dose of Doge π€ | Uh Oh! | Recent findings from the House Subcommittee on DOGE have raised significant concerns about the allocation of U.S. foreign aid. During a recent hearing, it was revealed that approximately $40 million per week is being disbursed to Afghanistan, with allegations that these funds are benefiting the Taliban. | That's unbelievable! | Representative Tim Burchett highlighted that this money, flown into Afghanistan via charter jets, is reportedly ending up in the hands of the Taliban and subsequently being auctioned off. | Additionally, the subcommittee uncovered that since October 7th, a total of $2.1 billion has been directed to Gaza, with roughly 90% of these funds flowing into regions dominated by Hamas. | Big if true: This raises concerns about U.S. aid inadvertently supporting terrorist organizations. | Not only that but there are claims that funds from USAID are being allocated to campaigns that not only seek additional financing but also advance initiatives aligning with China's objectives. This includes funding radical NGOs that oppose capitalism, democracy, NATO, and Christianity, thereby undermining U.S. interests. | These revelations have prompted the Trump administration to announce plans to cut more than 90% of USAID's foreign aid contracts, aiming to reduce U.S. assistance by $60 billion. This move seeks to eliminate programs that are perceived to undermine American interests and ensure that taxpayer dollars are utilized to support America-first policies. | The DOGE subcommittee continues to investigate these issues, emphasizing the need for stringent oversight to prevent U.S. funds from supporting activities that counteract national interests. | | Quick News Bites | π Elon Musk has called on retired air traffic controllers to return to work, addressing a critical shortage of skilled professionals. This appeal follows Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy's initiative to expedite hiring and modernize the Federal Aviation Administration's outdated systems, with SpaceX engineers assisting in the assessment. | ✈️ The DOJ released over 100 pages of Jeffrey Epstein-related documents, including flight logs, a redacted contact book, and an evidence list. Attorney General Pam Bondi, facing criticism over the lack of new revelations, blamed the FBI for withholding key files. The Trump administration is also pushing to release documents in other major cases, such as the JFK assassination. | π° Jeff Bezos, owner of The Washington Post, announced a shift in the paper's opinion section to focus exclusively on "personal liberties and free markets," leading to the resignation of opinion editor David Shipley. Bezos emphasized that while other topics will still be covered, opposing viewpoints to these pillars will be published elsewhere. This move has upset people like the former editor Marty Baron and other staff members, who view it as an encroachment on journalistic independence. | | πΈPhoto Of The DayπΈ | | God bless, | Clayton Trending Politics | | | |
