Hey here's a question....

The name of it is escaping me.... something 2025? The big scary thing everyone was talking about 6 months ago when they still hoped to sway the election?

Is Trump following the first steps of that plan, as "they" all predicted he would?

Secure the border, finish building the wall, and deport illegal aliens

De-weaponize the Federal Government by increasing accountability and oversight of the FBI and DOJ

Unleash American energy production to reduce energy prices

Cut the growth of government spending to reduce inflation

Make federal bureaucrats more accountable to the democratically elected President and Congress

Improve education by moving control and funding of education from DC bureaucrats directly to parents and state and local governments

Ban biological males from competing in women' s sports
Hmmm. Which of those things did the democrats oppose?

Trump's numbers are way up.

https://www.pennlive.com/news/2025/01/c ... s-ago.html
There have been a wave of executive orders and actions that we cannot yet truly know the full impact of. But at least one poll says that Americans approve of the chaos that he has unleashed in government since taking over again.

CNN data guru Harry Enten laid the numbers out, citing a Reuters/Ipsos poll heading into the weekend.

“Look the American people really like what they are seeing, at least compared to where Donald Trump started eight years ago,” Enten said as he pointed to a graphic on a screen behind him that showed Trump’s net approval rating at -3 points when he took office in January 2017 and at +6 points now.
"Chaos he has unleashed on government."

I guess Trump is now the exception to the rule that "politicians never follow through with their campaign promises."

That must be why inflation is suddenly so low and eggs are free. Or, why he promised he knew nothing about Project 2025, and yet...

"Gulf of America" is now official.

I'd forgotten how funny his trolling the first term was.

I think my GF is pissed at me because I refuse to lose sleep over the things he does, that I can't control. Yes, she has a trans kid in the army, and I'm worried about that, and I'm trying to teach everyone concerned that he has opportunities and ways forward if the worst happens, but they're just getting pissed.

Sigh. The ol' "We don't want solutions, we want to be angry, and we want you to be angry with us."

I saw a meme for this very thing, but cannot find it.

The gist of it was:
-2 images. First one of someone not paying attention, and the second was that famous trigger woman with the insane eyes.
-First image said Ds on the price of eggs the last 4 years.
-Second image said Ds on the price of eggs January 21st, 2025.

Eggs could skyrocket, particularly if they push the bird flu angle. Who knows? I just found the meme funny because it points out how each party's cultists won't acknowledge their party's failings, but when it's easy to shift the blame, all of a sudden it's an issue for them.

The word she used that caught my attention was "experiment".

I wonder if it was a social experiment to see how people would react? That would explain the lack of explanation from the Biden WH.

Almost assuredly.

These can't be real and are just fronts to launder money for CIA operations, right? (Although, I support more alarm clock research!)
