There was no chain of command when it came to using the autopen. Govts don't work that way , directives have to be put down in writing . Biden staffers were just using the telephone, including his family,read Hunter Biden.
No wonder why they are not challenging the termination so far.

basilico:
Trump finally terminates every order signed by the autopen.


@realDonaldTrump

Any and all Documents, Proclamations, Executive Orders, Memorandums, or Contracts, signed by Order of the now infamous and unauthorized “AUTOPEN,” within the Administration of Joseph R. Biden Jr., are hereby null, void, and of no further force or effect. Anyone receiving “Pardons,” “Commutations,” or any other Legal Document so signed, please be advised that said Document has been fully and completely terminated, and is of no Legal effect. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Pardons now are of no effect.
Can only imagine the number of judges salivating to block this order and delay it until the democrat president.

The Sword cuts both ways If the pardons are upheld .
Since House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has indicated that a future Democratic majority in the House would launch investigations into potential wrongdoing by members of the Trump administration and House Republicans, particularly regarding matters of corruption, specific financial dealings, and actions related to the January 6 Capitol violence. . Then
Trump better sign that preemptive pardon today .

We saw how Biden was giving ghosts handshakes, wandering into the bush

Trump is likely the most active president we have seen in a long time
Conveniently how they ignore this quote from Jake Tapper's book.

“He just had to win, and then he could disappear for four years – he’d only have to show proof of life every once in a while.”

Joe would disappear and the aides would run the show till 2028.

Scoop: FBI aims to escalate its inquiry into 6 Democrats who made video for troops by pressing domestic terrorism squad to launch a formal seditious conspiracy investigation. Washington


FBI WFO pushing back , these must be Biden holdovers

Julie Kelly weighed in
"Career leaders at the bureau’s Washington Field Office have thus far pushed back on the request for a formal investigation, which would follow President Donald Trump’s call for a trial into the Democrats’ 'seditious behavior,' the people familiar said. The Washington office supervisors cited a lack of legal and factual basis to initiate a criminal case against the senators and House members who posted a video Nov. 18 reminding service members and the intelligence community of their rights to 'refuse illegal orders

Julie Kelly 🇺🇸
@julie_kelly2

"FBI headquarters requested that the investigation arise under the rarely invoked seditious conspiracy statute that DOJ used to convict a small number of Oath Keepers and Proud Boys leaders for organizing the Jan. 6 insurrection at the US Capitol."

Good. And never mind this "small number" had no political power, no arms, no means to do anything on Jan 6.

But they were held in solitary confinement for months and years--denied a fair trial, and subjected to terror enhancements at sentencing.

If this is a legit investigation for the seditious six, it has far more evidence of guilt than the cases against the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys.


It's common knowledge,whatever they were upto is to create discord in the military.
Should they be indicted ,as per arguments in the tweet ,it should not be in DC .

After the first strike the two survivors climbed back onto the boat. Were trying to salvage their fish ,and were believed to be communicating with other fishermen nearby.

I'm of the opinion this selective leakage , where it's Pete Hegseth initially named is part of the larger plan to destabilize the govt. Coinciding with the Seditious 6 video it all looks a coordinated plan .

Jim Jordan has subpoenad Jack Smith to appear on Dec 17 for a closed door deposition...

https://nypost.com/2025/12/03/us-news/ex-special-counsel-jack-smith-subpoenaed-by-house-republicans-in-review-of-trump-probes/

Jack had earlier offered to testify , the offer was rejected then . Now there is solid evidence he targeted 430 republicans and affiliate entities including TPUSA.
The initial claim was that he wanted Senator's call records between Jan 4 -7 of 2021. He was looking for any comms from any of them with Giuliani especially. DOJ warned him that the Senate needed to be informed , but they signed off saying there would be low risk of any senator being charged. As usual Judge Boasberg gave the go ahead and warned the Telcos against informing the senators.
With Jim Jordan , Jack Smith wanted 2 year records from Jan 1 2020 to April 2022. He wasn't investigating Jan 6 ,he was looking to crucify Jim Jordan, Blatant abuse of power.

We'll see if Jack Smith ignores the subpoena ,following Judge Boasberg footsteps ,who declined Senate summon 2 days ago.

They never thought tables would turn . They were after finishing Trump and his allies. Was never about any justice.
Progressivism is an artificial construct not grounded in how the vast majority of people naturally act, it relies on coercion, misdirection, false premises, enslavement, intentional falsehoods and a fractured view of people working in unselfish cooperation rather than in their own selfish interests, leading to inevitable failure.

Former Chief Judge Beryl Howell has stopped unwarranted arrests of illegals in DC. She created a Unassisted Escape Risk Class, who should be not be arrested without a warrant or probable cause of a flight risk,

Judge Boasberg replaced her as DC judge .
As Chief judge in 2021 she made rulings that saw many J6 protesters treated as dangerous criminals who needed to be detained pre trial. Anyone who entered the Capitol was treated as a destructive person "members of a mob who breached barriers and pushed back officers to disrupt the joint session of Congress are not trespassers, they are criminals".
She reversed multiple rulings where protesters had been bailed out under misdemeanor charges. Some remained in jail for years.

To those who are shedding tears for narco boats being blown up and follow up strikes. There are Maritime laws.

”But of course this was no warship, and the drug-runners are not signatories to the Geneva Convention. What law does apply?”

The laws of stateless vessels.

The laws of a country extend 12 miles out from its shores. All vessels within that limit are subject to that country’s jurisdiction. Beyond that limit all vessels must fly the flag under whose jurisdiction they are sailing. Someone committing a crime in international waters is subject to the laws of the country under whose flag he is sailing. In addition, that country is responsible for the actions of a vessel flying its flag.

These boats are not flying Venezuela’s flag, and thus Venezuela is not legally responsible for them. They’re not flying *any* flag — so no country is responsible for their actions, but they don’t receive the protections of any country either. They are stateless vessels and, under the law, essentially pirates.

Vessels in international waters are required to monitor specific radio frequencies and to respond to the hailing of any coast guard or navy. A stateless vessel which fails to do so can be considered a pirate vessel and dealt with accordingly. Much like a soldier out of uniform picking up a gun on a battlefield and fighting, pirates are not subject to the Geneva Conventions. The laws of piracy, not warfare, apply.


The Sep 2 incident had been reported by the The Intercept. on September 10. It got no traction at all because it concided with Charlie Kirk's murder.
After the Seditious 6 released their illegal order video, WAPO quickly pounced.

At least two vessels were ordered to stop ,they fled but were intercepted/sank after 1-2 hours of high speed chase. Both vessels had over 1000HP of engine power ,cruising at over 60 knots .Faster than the US Navy boats.
Poor fishermen.

Scenario 1. Russia controls 50% Ukraine

...Millions more Ukrainians — an estimated 6 to 11 million — could flee toward Europe, generating 524-952 billion euros ($606 billion - 1.1 trillion) in refugee-related expenses over four years
Additional defense spending to reinforce NATO's eastern flank would raise Europe's total costs under Scenario 1 to €1.2-€1.6 trillion ($1.4-1.8 trillion).

Scenario 2
To facilitate victory, Ukraine would require a rapid influx of military equipment. This would include "1,500-2,500 battle tanks and 2,000-3,000 artillery systems over one or two years... Ukraine will also need up to 8 million drones of all types, air defense, and strategic missile systems."....and reduced refugee burdens — totals 522–838 billion euros ($605-$972 billion) over four years, roughly half the cost of a Russian victory. Confiscation of frozen Russian assets could further reduce European expenses by up to 50 percent

BTW it's not +13, it's +8.

Also, the mayoral seat of a Georgia town also flipped blue

Add that to Virginia and New Jersey, prop 50 in California, and other special races this year, plus how Trump is polling nationwide especially with the 18-24 demo, plus the effect of the tariffs on prices, and you have a very very interesting environment going into midterm season.

It's also not looking good for the reds
You're right , it's plus 8.
Turnout was 34-35% while in Nov last year was close to 69%.
I don't think I'll read much into special elections where the stakes are not so high , especially in so called safe seats.

---Felon 47: "The word 'affordability' is a Democrat scam---
Democrat death by a thousand cuts has now moved on to affordability

JD Vance comments on affordability st the cabinet meet yesterday

VANCE: “I just want to pick up on something you said, Mr. President, because you hit the nail on the head, that it is absurd that Democrats talk about an affordability crisis that they created, and the people around this table work every single day to address.”

“You’ll hear a lot of statistics today. You hear a lot of statistics in our political conversation. I think the most important statistic for the American people is that under the Biden administration, the average American family lost over $3,000 of household income.”

“And under the first ten months of this Trump administration, they have gained over $1,000 of household income.”

“What that says very clearly is that we are fixing the problem that Joe Biden and the Democrats created in the last administration.”

“If you look at every affordability crisis that’s confronting the American people today, it is traceable directly to a problem caused by Joe Biden and congressional Democrats.”

“Why did homes get so unaffordable?”

“Because we had 20 million illegal aliens in this country taking homes that ought by right to go to American citizens.”

“Why did tax bills get so unaffordable?”

“Because Democrats were raising taxes, while congressional Republicans under the president’s leadership we are now cutting taxes.”

“Why did food get so expensive?”

“Because we printed trillions of dollars and threw it into green scams that made our agricultural economy suffer, while Americans were paying higher prices for food.”

“On every single one of those issues, Mr. President, I think we’ve made incredible progress, but it would be preposterous to fix every problem caused over the last four years in just ten months.”

“But what I see over the next year, and you heard Brooke talk about joy and gratitude, what I really think this season represents for me, and I think for the entire administration, is that we have now done incredible work to fix what Joe Biden broke.”

“And I think the next year, in American growth and American prosperity could be the best year that we’ve had in the United States of America.”

“It’s going to happen because we’re all working hard. It’s going to happen because we have the greatest country in the world.”

“But I think for congressional Democrats in particular, if they want to talk about affordability, they ought to look in the mirror. We are fixing what they’re broken. We’re proud to do it.”

“I think 2026 is going to be the year where this economy really takes off.

President Trump appeared to doze off during a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday. As members of his Cabinet heaped praise on the president, his eyes appeared to close multiple times. https://cnn.it/3Y8rhne
It's normal for someone working 12 hours a day to momentarily doze off.
WASHINGTON — President Trump has been working up to 12-hour days this month, according to Oval Office logs the White House provided to The Post after the New York Times claimed there were “signs of fatigue” in his less detailed public schedule.

The previously unpublished “private narrative” documents span 10 weekdays between Nov. 12 and Nov 25 — the day the Times story was published — and show the president worked roughly 50-hour weeks, not counting any official duties that may have been performed on weekends.

The White House made the rare decision to share the logs to counter the narrative that Trump, 79, is slowing with age — with the files instead showing him working longer hours than the average American as he overhauls trade and immigration policies, attempts to end the Russia-Ukraine war and spearheads the most significant construction at the White House in decades....


CNN and evil media are trying to create a story about his health.The other day they asked him about an MRI and made a stink out of it.

Honduras.
American democrat leaning NGOs have been teaching them how to conduct elections democratically as they did in Ukraine , Georgia , Egypt Romania etc .
After protests in 2017 which JOH won the 2021 November election had a new player. Smartmatic voter authentication. Joe Biden was the president then.
Zelaya's wife won 51% of the vote in 2021.
This year she has less than 24% of the vote. What changed?
Trump sent a non partisan delegation including intelligence agents to observe the elections , that's my opinion.
Trump has an interest in taking down the Cartel of the Suns leader, Maduro and is pitting Latin and South America countries against him. This also stretches Putin resources helping impoverished Venezuela defences at this time.
Foreign Affairs › Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico: 6:48am On Dec 03, 2025
On further research I'm now of the opinion that ex Honduran president JOH was setup
He extradited many drug kingpins to America. Who in turn were the prosecution witnesses in his trial. Death merchants. No proof provided,he says he was denied any exculpatory evidence.

When JOH term expired and Zelaya's wife got sworn in ,within 3 months he was in a US jail
Zelaya, the husband had been overthrown by a military coup in 2009 for attempting to change the presidential term limit of two terms. JOH was President of congress till he won in 2013 and 2017.
Zelayas are far left socialists who are supported by Maduro.

On Hernandez this is what I could dig up. He was in CIA good books while bragging "stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses".



A 2010 cable from then-U.S. Ambassador Hugo Llorens described Hernández as a "reliable interlocutor" for U.S. interests, including intelligence on Venezuelan ties. This laid the groundwork for his alignment with U.S. agencies.
Upon taking office, Hernández signed a bilateral agreement expanding CIA access to Honduran military bases (e.g., Soto Cano Air Base, a U.S.-CIA hub). Joint operations included CIA drone surveillance for drug interdictions and human intelligence on cartel routes

2015 internal CIA memo (declassified in 2020 via FOIA) praised Hernández as a "key partner" in disrupting Sinaloa Cartel networks, providing him with $10 million+ in non-lethal aid. However, a 2016 Associated Press investigation revealed CIA ignored DEA tips on Hernández's brother Tony receiving Sinaloa bribes, citing "national security priorities.
Amid disputed 2017 re-election protests (which killed 30+), the Trump administration—via CIA Director Mike Pompeo—publicly backed Hernández, calling him an "indispensable ally" against Venezuelan migration. Evidence from Tony Hernández's ( his brother) 2019 U.S. trial included intercepted calls showing JOH sharing radar data with traffickers, but CIA analysts testified (under seal) that such intel was also funneled to them for broader ops. A 2019 State Department cable (leaked to The Intercept) confirmed CIA briefings to Hernández on Cuban/Venezuelan threats, in exchange for his silence on U.S. renditions through Honduras.

cococandy:
Sounds like they found their fall guy. People who follow and obey Trump without question always end up paying with their lives and/or their careers.

This is exactly why Sen Kelly had to remind service members that they will take the fall if they obey illegal orders.
Veterans and service members know that this is standard, regular training. I hope service members continue to uphold their oath to the constitution and refuse to obey illegal orders.
Senator Kelly has categorically retracted his statement on illegal orders,clarifies Trump hass ssued no illegal orders.
In 2017 the then president elect Trump said " "I think my generals understand that... Even the ones that stayed... would not do that... If I say do it, they’re going to do it."

November 30, 2025, interview on NBC's Meet the Press, Kelly stated:
“Well, so this is looking forward... But let me give you a pass, an outline, of things that he has said. In 2016, he said that the U.S. military will follow his illegal orders."

Translation. No illegal orders. Almost a decade ago Trump had said generals would obey his orders. Sen Kelly is issuing a preemptive opinion .
He was just bullshitting hoping if not already aware some other attack angle will come up.

I’m no lawyer but last time I checked it’s illegal to shoot and kill unverified people under suspicion that they “might be” drug dealers. It’s a stupid thing to do and even stupider thing to defend.
And that's exactly what NYT leaked first . Then reposted by WAPO.
NYT has clarified that it wasn't Hegseth who ordered a second strike Unnamed sabotagers leaking to media in coordination. The orders are to take out and kill the drug smugglers.
