On the day of President Donald Trump's inauguration, the White House released an executive order which suspended the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program "until such time as the further entry into the United States of refugees aligns with the interests of the United States."
According to the EO, American cities large and small have been overrun by "significant influxes of migrants" that require the redirection of precious resources and that threaten the security and stability of local residents.
"It is the policy of the United States to ensure that public safety and national security are paramount considerations in the administration of the USRAP," the EO continued.

Trump wants OPEC to lower oil prices. They would have to increase production to achieve that. He will have to use his best negotiation skills to get the cartel to agree to that.
Trump called out the CEO of Bank of America during a virtual appearance at the World Economic Forum on Thursday in Davos, Switzerland.
Trump was speaking to the forum when he directly addressed Brian Moynihan over accusations that the bank has been shutting out conservatives from banking services.
He also addressed Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase.
"They don't take conservative business, and I don't know if regulators mandated that because of Biden or what," Trump continued, "but you and Jamie and everybody, I hope you open your banks to conservatives, because what you're doing is wrong."
Trump went on to say that he wants the global leaders to tackle high inflation and also for Saudi Arabia and OPEC to "bring down the cost of oil."
First lady Melania Trump revealed in October in an interview with Fox News that she was a victim of de-banking.
President Donald Trump followed through on a campaign promise on Thursday to order the release of the classified files related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
In addition to those files, he ordered the declassification of files related to the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. and that of Robert F. Kennedy.
Donald Trump's order on birthright citizenship sets the stage for a major legal fight and a much-needed correction.
The ink was barely dry on President Trump's executive order overturning birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants when the ACLU filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of illegal alien plaintiffs. In the coming days, the left will flood the media with claims that invaders can force citizenship on us, arguing the 14th Amendment somehow guarantees this.
Leftists will cherry-pick a single nonbinding footnote from a poor legal decision that misinterpreted an earlier flawed ruling. These arguments ignore previous precedent, the original intent and plain meaning of the 14th Amendment, national sovereignty, and the foundational principles of the social compact. Instead, they selectively reinterpret the law to achieve their desired political outcome of extending our sacred birthright to illegal immigrants — all while disregarding a long history of uninterrupted case law indicating the opposite.

Donald Trump has been the president for just a few days and already, there's an outflow of persons at the southern border.
Illegal immigrants are voluntarily deporting themselves.
The majority of Americans will be glad of this. Recent Axios polling revealing that 66% of Americans support mass deportations.
And it's not the only poll to suggest this. Polling from the New York Times, Marquette Law School, CBS, and ABC all came up with similar numbers.
The prog media, however, is trying to paint the picture that we're going to have military members going school to school to find children who are illegal immigrants and deport them.

Military aircraft used to deport migrants in the country illegally from Tucson to Guatemala
(https://i.imgur.com/MnWxppvm.png)
TUCSON, AZ — The U.S. Government has released photos showing a military plane being used to carry out a deportation flight from Tucson.
The post says the "U.S. Transportation Command is supporting Immigration and Customs Enforcement removal flights by providing military airlift".
The deportation flight using military aircraft comes after President Donald Trump signed an executive order declaring a "National Emergency" at the border and that he would use the military for the purpose of "securing our borders".
President Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan spoke with ABC News and said this will now be a "daily occurrence." U.S. officials tell ABC News there were two military flights on Thursday, transporting 150 migrants to Guatemala.

The Trump administration moved to dismiss charges against a doctor whistleblower who exposed transgender surgeries being performed in secret at a Texas children's hospital.
Texas surgeon Dr. Eithan Haim obtained documents proving that Texas Children's Hospital was providing gender transition services in secret and passed them on to conservative journalist Christopher Rufo in order to stop the illegal procedures.
The Biden administration responded by filing charges against Haim for violating HIPAA privacy statutes. On Friday, Haim celebrated the announcement that the charges would be dismissed.
The Biden administration was accused of unfairly targeting the whistleblower.

Parents who opposed trans extremism in schools knew that.
Donald Trump has wasted no time making his mark in his return to the White House.
In less than a week, the president has signed dozens of new executive orders and repealed nearly 80 orders and memorandums from the Biden era.
One of the most notable orders, titled "Guaranteeing the States Protection Against Invasion," introduced immediate changes to immigration law.
The order suspends temporarily a contentious policy that allows immigrants to enter the United States by claiming asylum.
Additionally, it directs federal agents to block entry for immigrants who fail to provide sufficient medical information or reliable criminal and background records.
Perhaps the most important change, however, is one that has received little attention from the media — the classification of the ongoing border crisis as an "invasion."
Finish the wall!!
The Colombian government has agreed to all of President Donald Trump's demands regarding deportation flights after President Gustavo Petro refused two U.S. military flights carrying illegal immigrants.
After Trump announced sanctions and tariffs on the Colombian government for refusing to accept the flights, Petro said Colombia would put tariffs on American goods. By late Sunday evening, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed that Colombia had fully agreed to all deportation flights, including from the U.S. military.
WINNING
Trump's renewed push for deregulation in the U.S. offers lessons for Canada. Excessive red tape is stifling growth. If deregulation drives U.S. prosperity, Canada must take note and rethink its regulatory burden to remain competitive
Trump is set to sign an executive order Monday reinstating thousands of American service members who were discharged for refusing experimental COVID-19 vaccines during the pandemic. Doing so will amount to another promise kept by the Republican, who stated in August, "I will rehire every patriot that was fired with an apology and backpay. They will get their backpay and an apology from our government."
Excellent work, Mr. President.

Trump's Immigration and Customs Enforcement launched its first raids in New York early Tuesday morning, resulting in the arrest of a notorious gang leader and other violent illegal alien criminals.
Police sources told the New York Post that ICE's first arrests involved individuals with warrants for crimes including burglary, menacing, kidnapping, extortion, and other violent offenses.
A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson told Fox News that the early morning raids targeted "murderers, kidnappers, and individuals charged of assault and burglary."
One of the individuals apprehended by ICE was a Dominican national wanted for a double homicide in his home country.
Federal immigration agents also arrested 25-year-old Anderson Zambrano-Pacheco, a Tren de Aragua ringleader tied to a viral surveillance video from August that captured armed suspected gang members storming through an Aurora, Colorado, apartment complex.
Zambrano-Pacheco was arrested by DEA agents and Department of Homeland Security officers at the apartment complex in the Bronx early Tuesday morning. He faces kidnapping, burglary, and menacing charges.

BULLSEYE!!
Republicans, as a rule, are fond of tinkering around the edges. Once elected, they stand athwart history yelling "slow down a little." They prefer to putter around the White House adding window dressing to Democrat-led decline. They fret about norms, civility, and other sweet nothings, while their political enemies ignore these niceties completely. The result? Each time "the pendulum swings back" (as Republican faithful are fond of predicting), it swings less and less to the right — and farther and farther to the left.
Not this time. President Donald Trump's remaking of the federal government isn't just softening the palette; it's a full-blown color revolution in how the federal government operates — and if successful, it will change everything.
Donald Trump's border czar told Fox News on Tuesday that while the new administration is hitting the ground running on its deportation operation, it is only just the start, as the number of apprehensions need to increase in order to reach the desired goal.
"Are you satisfied, Tom Homan, with the pace of migrant deportations?" host Jesse Watters asked.
"No. We've got to do more. We've got to open the aperture up, which we are going to do. It was a good start. The first week was unprecedented. I mean, illegal crossings on the border, one day it was 540. I've never seen that. ... We went from 10,000 a day to under 600. It's great, it's good, but we're not finished. We need more deportations, a lot more deportations, and that's what we are working on," Homan replied. :good:

Jo Jo Sweetie, you told me after sex two nights ago that you found her performance cringey.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem stated Wednesday that President Trump's administration had stopped all taxpayer dollars from going toward non-governmental organizations that have been facilitating illegal immigration.
"Today, we are announcing that we have stopped all grant funding that's being abused by NGOs to facilitate illegal immigration into this country. So it's amazing to me the hundreds of millions of dollars that have been spent by the federal government, that has been sent to NGOs to facilitate this invasion of our country," Noem stated.
380 million in taxpayer money was funneled to NGOs to provide shelter and services programs for illegal aliens in 2024.
Among Trump's many promises, none mattered more to his supporters than swift and substantive action on immigration. His first-week strategy shows he took that commitment seriously. In just seven days, Immigration and Customs Enforcement conducted nationwide raids, arresting thousands of illegal immigrants. Authorities prioritized the most dangerous offenders, ensuring gang members, drug traffickers, and child predators were swiftly removed. The speed of these removals raises one clear question: Was the Biden administration allowing violent illegal aliens to terrorize American citizens?

Secretary of State Marco Rubio laid down the law in Panama over the weekend, making expressly clear to President José Mulino that the Trump administration will not tolerate the influence of the Chinese communist regime over the Panama Canal as it now stands.
It appears the Panamanian leader heeded the American's warning.
Within hours of their meeting, Mulino announced that Panama will not be renewing its memorandum of understanding with China concerning its Belt and Road Initiative.
Cyril Ramaphosa, South Africa's socialist president, ratified legislation on Jan. 25 enabling the government to seize land without compensation. With white farmers still possessing a great deal of land, the ruling coalition apparently figures the new law for a means of redistributing property to members of a state-preferred racial group.
Citing the Expropriation Act of 2024 as cause, President Donald Trump noted on Truth Social Sunday that he "will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!"
Last year, the U.S. reportedly committed to over $323 million in foreign assistance to South Africa. The U.S. Agency for International Development, which Trump appears poised to shutter, directed the bulk of the funding. In 2023, America poured over $439 million into funding for the African nation.
"South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY," wrote Trump. "It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn't want to so much as mention. A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see. The United States won't stand for it, we will act."

The White House signaled Tuesday that the top bureaucrats who controlled government tech are next on the chopping block.
The White House is taking a critical step to ensure that obstructionist deep-staters spread throughout the federal government at senior levels cannot choke essential information flows and altogether hinder agencies' execution of the president's agenda.
The U.S. Office of Personnel Management sent a memo Tuesday to the heads and acting heads of all federal departments and agencies, recommending that every agency revoke the "career reserved" status for their chief information officers. By doing so and by also opening the roles to "general" employees, the establishmentarians presently occupying the increasingly politicized roles can be easily canned and replaced by individuals actually willing to carry out the president's agenda.
The stated purpose of this move is to satisfy the Trump administration's desire to "improve the government's digital policy to make government more responsive, transparent, efficient, and accessible to the public, and to make using and understanding government programs easier."

Less than three weeks in and this is what Trump has accomplished internationally.
exican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced the immediate deployment of 10,000 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made a similar announcement later that same day. In response, Trump agreed to delay the tariffs on Mexico and Canada for one month.
Beyond Mexico and Canada, Trump has already scored several major foreign policy victories during his second term — each rooted in his FAFO strategy.
Colombia has agreed to accept flights of repatriated citizens who entered the United States illegally after first refusing to accept them. The change? Again, Trump threatened tariffs. Colombia capitulated and is accepting its citizens back into the country.
Venezuela freed six Americans who were being held illegally in the country after a very brief meeting with U.S. special envoy Richard Grenell. Venezuela has also agreed to accept the repatriation of its citizens illegally in the United States, including members of the brutal Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
Trump also decided to take out several leaders of ISIS in Somalia last weekend, launching airstrikes.
And, just for good measure, newly confirmed Secretary of State Marco Rubio secured a commitment from Panama to withdraw from China's Belt and Road Initiative and to maintain its sovereignty over the Panama Canal.
America is back, with an aggressive foreign policy. For those countries that do not believe it or want to challenge the new approach, Trump has shown that he has one thing to say: FAFO.
Trump signed an executive order halting all US aid to South Africa, accusing its government of allowing violent attacks on white farmers and implementing a land expropriation law that enables the seizure of Afrikaner-owned farms without compensation.

Its time to cut off ALL aid to Africa. If them fuckers havent learned to feed themselves, they need to starve. I'd like to see a plan to repatriate all whites in Africa to white countries. They're only gonna get butchered by blacks eventually anyway, plus, niggers will starve quicker without whites to farm the lands. Its pretty much like the USSR at this point.

It's alleged Trump did offer asylum to all White South Africans, but they declined. I don't believe that. I have a Dutch speaking White South African doctor. He says they all want out.

While I realize this doesnt speak for all of them, I've seen videos of whites say they will never leave SA because its their home. When white rule ended in SA, they should have split off a part where whites would have a homeland.

Among the high-profile disruptors in Trump's Cabinet, few have made a more dramatic impact than Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
From high-profile ICE raids in New York to horseback patrols in Texas, Noem is making her presence known as she reshapes Homeland Security from the ground up.
Under Mayorkas' "leadership," more than 10 million illegal aliens entered the United States. When the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that DHS could not mass parole illegal aliens into the country, he expanded the practice anyway. Since fiscal year 2021, authorities have caught 362 individuals on the terrorist watchlist illegally crossing the Southwest border. That figure is just one piece of the overwhelming evidence showing how Mayorkas and Biden enabled an unprecedented border crisis.
Kennedy inspired, Reagan led, and Trump fights. Each faced opposition, but only Trump has survived an all-out assault from the deep state and media elites.
After enduring years of relentless attacks from the deep state and its operatives — including blatant lies, distortions of truth, unfounded impeachments, nonstop lawfare, attempts to bankrupt and imprison him, a billion-dollar campaign to destroy him, and even assassination attempts — Trump's enemies unwittingly opened the door to his greatness.
Love him or hate him, recognize his struggle or not, at this moment in American history, Donald J. Trump has earned the title of legendary.

Why am I not surprised.
The inspector general tasked with monitoring spending habits at the controversial U.S. Agency for International Development is now out of a job.
On Tuesday evening, Trent Morse, deputy director of the White House Office of Presidential Personnel, emailed USAID Inspector General Paul Martin to let him know that he had been "terminated, effective immediately."
Though Morse did not provide a reason for Martin's termination, it is likely tied to the rampant waste, fraud, and abuse Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency appear to have uncovered at the agency. According to the DOGE, USAID — dedicated to distributing American tax dollars to foreign countries — spent billions on leftist, anti-American pet projects ranging from "trans-led" and "gender-affirming" organizations in Guatemala to a Hamas-linked charity in Gaza to DEI scholarships in Burma.

A great start so far.
The State Department is planning to designate over six cartels and criminal groups with links to Latin America as foreign terrorist organizations.
Six unnamed sources familiar with the imminent decision told the Times that in addition to Tren de Aragua and MS-13, the Trump administration plans to designate six Mexican cartels as FTOs: the Cartel del Golfo, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, the Michoacán family, the Northeast Cartel, and the Sinaloa Cartel.
These are the kind of cost saving reforms that work.
The Trump administration on Feb. 14 cut funding for an outreach program under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that helps people sign up for health insurance coverage, according to a statement from the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS).
The agency said in a statement that ACA navigators will receive $10 million per year over the next four years. In 2024, the navigator program received $98 million, according to the agency. The ACA, passed in 2010, is a sweeping health care plan known as Obamacare.
CMS stated it was a cost-cutting move that would allow for health care exchanges to focus on more efficient strategies.
"Overall, navigator performance data shows that the current level of funding does not represent a reasonable return on investment," CMS officials said. "These numbers indicate that navigators are not enrolling nearly enough people to justify the substantial amount of federal dollars previously spent on the program."
In 2024, the navigators enrolled 92,000 consumers, which is "just 0.6 percent of plan selections through the [federally facilitated exchanges] during the open enrollment period ... at a cost of $1,061 per enrollment."
"Additionally, the average cost per enrollment exceeded $3,000 for 12 of the 56 navigator grantee organizations. Looking back at the grant period covering the 2019 plan year—the year before the COVID-19 pandemic under a similar regulatory approach—navigators likewise enrolled 0.6 percent of total enrollments through the FFEs at a substantially lower cost of $10 million," the statement said.
However, Friday's CMS statement said that $360 million will be saved over four years by cutting the program and noted that the user fee that is paid to the navigators is "directly passed through to the premium that health insurers charge."
"The savings from the navigator program supports lower premiums for consumers in the individual health insurance market," it stated. "People who do not qualify for federal premium subsidies will directly benefit from lower premiums. Lower premiums will also translate to less federal spending on premium subsidies."
The Tremont City Police Department in the greater Springfield metropolitan area revealed that a great deal has changed socially and demographically since November — and that much of it can be attributed to President Donald Trump.
"I can't even fathom how bad it could be if that election went completely opposite," said TCPD Chief Chad Duncan. "There were people living in tents behind businesses, just inside of the wood line. The parks were overrun with homeless immigrants, and you don't see that now."
"So I guess you got to thank the good Lord that He decided to give us what we asked for, which was President Trump, and he did it in a very timely fashion," added Duncan.
Since President Trump has crammed at least 100 days of action into just a few weeks, let's issue his preliminary 100-day report card now.
On three of the four issues central to restoring American sovereignty and values — border security, eviscerating DEI, and returning sanity to biology — Trump receives the highest possible grade. He has moved swiftly, strongly, and wisely.
When it comes to ending government's role in censorship, he has been more cautious — but not inactive. He issued an executive order to prohibit any federal government officer, employee, or agent to "unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen" and authorize an investigation of Biden administration censorship programs. He shuttered part of the Biden censorship enterprise, and some social media platforms have curtailed their "moderation" practices. There is a lot more to do to eliminate censorship by government and government-funded organizations.
Trump receives high marks for setting in motion the policies necessary to protect Christians and Jews, curb the green agenda and restore consumer choice, and re-invigorate fossil fuel exploration and extraction. He is to be lauded for withdrawing the United States from the Paris Climate Accord and the World Health Organization.
Trump also receives high marks for ending the USAID's radical left agenda. USAID also administers programs that advance American values. They can be managed by the State Department or a right-sized USAID.
Donald Trump directed the Department of Justice to terminate all U.S. attorneys appointed during the Biden administration. The move was necessary to restore a "fair justice system" in the country, Trump said.
"Over the past four years, the Department of Justice has been politicized like never before," Trump said on the Truth Social platform. "Therefore, I have instructed the termination of ALL remaining 'Biden Era' U.S. Attorneys. We must 'clean house' IMMEDIATELY, and restore confidence," he said.
It is common for U.S. attorneys to resign when there is a change in administration. However, department lawyers said the incoming administration would typically request their resignations rather than issuing termination letters. The DOJ did not respond to a request for comment. Trump's statement comes a week after the White House had dispensed termination notices to federal prosecutors appointed during the Biden era. A number of other U.S. attorneys have already announced their resignations.

Vance outlined three key accomplishments: significantly reducing border crossings, unleashing American energy, and reducing federal government waste through the Department of Government Efficiency.
Vance joked that the only thing President Donald Trump has been unable to solve is CNN's rating crisis. :s_laugh:

Trump signed an Executive Order to end the procurement and forced use of paper straws.
The Federal government is directed to stop purchasing paper straws and ensure they are no longer provided within Federal buildings.
The Order requires the development of a National Strategy to End the Use of Paper Straws within 45 days to alleviate the forced use of paper straws nationwide.
Cities and states across America have banned plastic straws, caving to pressure from woke activists who prioritize symbolism over science.
Paper straws use chemicals that may carry risks to human health – including "forever chemical" PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) which are known to be highly water soluble and can bleed from the straw into a drink.
A study found that while PFAS were found in paper straws, no measurable PFAS were found in plastic straws.
Paper straws are more expensive than plastic straws, and often force users to use multiple straws.
Paper straws are not the eco-friendly alternative they claim to be – studies have shown that producing paper straws can have a larger carbon footprint and require more water than plastic straws.
Paper straws often come individually wrapped in plastic, undermining the environmental argument for their use.

Trump plans to create a sovereign wealth fund.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick would be appointed to spearhead the effort for the fund, aimed at acquiring TikTok and possibly shares in other larger companies, such as vaccine manufacturers.
"If we are going to buy two billion COVID vaccines, maybe we should have some warrants and some equity in these companies," Lutnick said.
Bessent, speaking alongside Trump from the Oval Office on Monday, said the fund was an issue of "great strategic importance."

The USPS has burdened American taxpayers with billions in annual losses, including $9.5 billion in fiscal year 2024. Further, despite a $107 billion congressional bailout two years ago, financial records show the agency's liabilities nearing $80 billion.
The National Association of Letter Carriers organized a rally on Monday to protest the reports — rejected by the administration that Trump is drafting an executive order to shake up the USPS.

This decision was long overdue.
Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order directing the departments of the Treasury, Labor, and Health and Human Services to make healthcare prices transparent.
The order directs the departments to "rapidly implement and enforce" the Trump healthcare price transparency regulations, which he claims were slowed by the Biden administration.
The departments will ensure hospitals and insurers disclose actual prices, not estimates, and take action to make prices comparable across hospitals and insurers, including prescription drug prices.
In addition, they will be required to update their enforcement policies to ensure hospitals and insurers are in compliance with requirements to make prices transparent.
"When healthcare prices are hidden, large corporate entities like hospitals and insurance companies benefit at the expense of American patients," the White House wrote in a statement. "Price transparency will lower healthcare prices and help patients and employers get the best deal on healthcare."
Continuing on Trump EO on healthcare price transparency.
The executive order notes a number of concerns with current healthcare pricing, including that prices vary between hospitals in the same region.
"One patient in Wisconsin saved $1,095 by shopping for two tests between two hospitals located within 30 minutes of one another," according to the statement.
The White House claims one economic analysis found Trump's original price transparency rules, if fully implemented, could deliver savings of $80 billion for consumers, employers and insurers by 2025.
It added that employers will lower their healthcare costs by an average of 27% on 500 common services by better shopping for care.
The White House said American patients are "fed up with the status quo," with 95% saying healthcare price transparency is an important priority. More than 50% said it should be a top priority of the government.
In his first term, Trump took historic action by mandating that hospitals and insurers make prices public.
A lawsuit was filed against the Biden administration in 2023, alleging it did not enforce the prescription drug transparency requirements.
"While the prior Administration failed to prioritize further implementation and enforcement of these requirements, President Trump is delivering on his promises to make the healthcare system more affordable and easier to navigate for patients," according to the statement.
Officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement made over 100 arrests in the controversial Texas development Colony Ridge earlier this week in a massive raid that a Trump official claims is only "phase one" of a larger operation.
On Monday, ICE arrested 118 individuals in the Colony Ridge area, a sprawling 33,000-acre development about a half-hour north of Houston. Some of those arrested already had outstanding warrants. Others were detained during traffic stops.
President Trump signed an executive order and a memorandum on March 1 aimed at boosting the U.S. lumber industry, addressing what White House officials called a crisis in both supply and demand.
The executive order, titled "Freeing Our Forest," directs the heads of federal agencies to reverse federal policies and propose ways to expedite and increase domestic timber and lumber production. The increased timber production will be directly tied to an improvement in land management, according to the White House. The memorandum will focus on demand, directing Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick to launch an investigation into the possible harm done to national security by importing lumber.
"Our disastrous timber and lumber policies, a legacy of the previous administration, trigger wildfires and degrade our fish and wildlife habitat," said Peter Navarro, senior counselor on trade and manufacturing. "They drive up construction and housing costs and impoverish America through large trade deficits that result from exporters like Canada, Germany, and Brazil dumping lumber into our markets at the expense of both our economic prosperity and national security. That stops today."
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the new U.S. health secretary, said that a measles outbreak in western Texas that has infected more than 100 people and led to one death is a "top priority" for his agency and said that vaccines will be provided.
"Ending the measles outbreak is a top priority for me and my extraordinary team," Kennedy said in a post on social media platform X on Feb. 28. The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is sending Texas 2,000 doses of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine through its immunization program, Kennedy said.
HHS will also provide "lab support to better track the virus causing the outbreak," will communicate "with public health officials every day in all affected areas to support their response and ensure they have the resources they need," and provide communications to local communities in Low German—the language used by Mennonites. "We will continue to fund Texas' immunization program," Kennedy wrote.

Honda will reportedly manufacture the next-generation Civic in Indiana. That's a change of plans for the company, which had been planning to manufacture the vehicle in Mexico. The move comes following Donald Trump's levying of 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada.
JD Vance said that while the Trump administration has made great progress in undoing the damage from the border crisis that was caused by the Biden-Harris administration, "Rome wasn't built in a day."
"President Biden gutted the entire immigration enforcement machine of this country. We are trying to rebuild so that we actually empower people to enforce the immigration laws. ... It is common sense. It's what the American people want us to do."
Speaking to reporters, Trump said he wanted to convince Russia and China to eliminate their nuclear arsenals, calling them extremely dangerous and deterrent weapons.
"It would be great if everybody would get rid of their nuclear weapons. I know Russia and us have by far the most. China will have an equal amount within 4-5 years. It would be great if we could all denuclearize because the power of nuclear weapons is crazy," he said.
His comments come as global powers continue to modernize and expand their nuclear arsenals.
Back in February, Donald Trump had already expressed frustration over the billions of dollars spent on nuclear deterrence.

Unlike past presidents, I believe Trump genuinely wants to eliminate nuclear stockpiles. He will never accomplish that.
Trump announced Friday that he is rolling out the red carpet for South African farmers and reiterated that the U.S. is cutting off funding to the socialist-led nation.
Without specifying that they need to be Afrikaners, who are also called Boers, Trump invited South African farmers worried about their safety to come with their families to the United States in a Friday Truth Social post, noting that they will enjoy a "rapid pathway to Citizenship" — a process that "will begin immediately."
Cyril Ramaphosa, South Africa's socialist president, ratified legislation on Jan. 25 enabling the government to seize land without compensation in the name of the "public interest."
Trump signed a memo on Thursday requesting federal judges impose financial penalties on "activist groups" who file "meritless" lawsuits against the government.
The administration fact sheet for the memo "President Donald J. Trump Ensures the Enforcement of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65(C)" requires financial guarantees from plaintiffs requesting preliminary injections and temporary restraining orders "where the government can demonstrate monetary harm from the requested relief."
"This ensures coverage of potential costs or losses if the court later deems an injunction wrongly issued," it stated.

Scott Turner's swift action at HUD to reverse Biden-era rules could help lower housing costs and bring the American dream back within reach for millions.
Scott Turner, the former Texas state representative and new Housing and Urban Development secretary, sailed through confirmation last month. He has moved swiftly to reverse troubling Biden-era regulations, such as the 2021 Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing rule, effectively a zoning tax that drove up housing costs.
Trump should target tariffs towards countries and economic sectors that do not have an equal trading relationship with America.
The U.S. Department of Education is laying off 1,315 employees, about half its workforce, within 90 days as part of its ongoing cost-saving measures. The staff reduction addresses redundancies in the communications, human resources, information technology, and other offices within the department, according to a senior official.
The affected workers were to be notified via email at 6 p.m. on March 11. The Washington, D.C., office will be closed on March 12 for safety protocols, and the senior official said the workers are expected to work remotely with full pay and benefits through March 21. They will then be placed on administrative leave, with pay, through June 9.
The laid-off staffers will be awarded severance payments based on their years of service, with the most senior members receiving up to 20 weeks of salary. The agency said about 600 of its 4,133 employees have already agreed to leave voluntarily, including 313 who accepted $25,000 buyout offers last week.
Ukraine has agreed to enter into a 30-day cease-fire with Russia as a means of kickstarting further talks to end the war. The United States responded by resuming military assistance to Ukraine. Delegations from Washington and Kyiv shared a joint statement on March 11 announcing the proposed 30-day pause in the fighting, after concluding a lengthy round of discussions in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
While the Jeddah plan calls for an initial 30-day halt to the fighting, Russia and Ukraine could agree to extend this temporary cease-fire as they work toward a more lasting peace agreement. It remains to be seen how Moscow will respond to the proposed cease-fire and other developments out of Jeddah.
"We'll take this offer now to the Russians and we hope that they'll say yes," Secretary of State Marco Rubio said. Following the Jeddah talks, the U.S. and Ukrainian delegations announced the United States would lift its hold on intelligence sharing with Ukraine and resume security assistance.
So... they're calling it a "cease fire" but it's really just another delaying tactic (ala Minsk Accords) in order to resupply Ukraine and ensure the war keeps going once NATO decides they're ready?
