Dear Patriot,
Another jam-packed week in America.
Enjoy the GOOD NEWS !!!!
1- Tuesday night’s Trump speech to Congress and the world is still making news. In part because it was such a shocking display of stupidity by the Democrats. They are on the wrong side of every single issue and they can not figure out how to get with the majority.
Dems are caught in the '80/20 loop' and it's killing them
QUOTE: President Trump’s speech to Congress was a massive success—many are calling it the greatest presidential speech of all time.
While President Trump celebrated a major political victory with the speech, Dems took yet another devastating hit. Their situation is getting dire, and more people are starting to notice what’s being called the “80/20 problem.”
Even Brit Hume—a well-known Trump critic—couldn’t deny the reality. He summed up President Trump’s night perfectly: If you ever doubted that Donald Trump is the political colossus of our time and our nation, this night and this speech should have put that to rest.
The Americans who tuned in felt “hopeful” and “proud.” According to this CBS poll, they also saw President Trump as both “presidential” and “unifying.”
Every poll confirmed it—the American people liked what they saw.
The American people are in a very different headspace. They’ve seen what President Trump can do for the country. They watched the debacle of the 2020 election. And they just suffered through four years of Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency and the left’s unhinged, failed policies. What are the Dems resisting? Law and order, a secure border, no more endless wars, ending fraud and waste? Nobody knows, not even the Dems.Once again, Dems are totally disconnected.The Democrats have a massive problem—they’re pandering to the unhinged 20 percent while the other 80 percent look on, wondering where common sense and sanity went. This is the infamous 80/20 problem, and it’s exactly why President Trump won in a landslide in 2024.
Trump planted his flag with the 80 percent on every major issue. The Democrats, meanwhile, bet everything on the radical 20 percent—and they lost big.
It’s very clear to see that Dems have an 80/20 problem—a massive gap that spells big trouble. But the real issue is that they don’t even seem to realize it. Instead of course-correcting, they’re doubling and tripling down on the insane 20 percent.
2- This is a win in the war against lawfare. President Trump has removed the security clearances for the law firm Perkins Coie and over 15 more firms.
Perkins Coie is responsible for RussiaGate and the Steele Dossier.
Watch the President discuss and sign the EO here.
3- This is such good news. This is an important and vital road. The Democrats, including two different Democrat NC Governors, were content to let this road be closed for years. Secretary Duffy got I-40 open in weeks.
Democrats really do not care about people.
Thanks to Sean Duffy, the Hurricane Damaged I-40 in North Carolina is Already Open Again – Pete Buttigieg Claimed it Would Take ‘Months or Even Years’
QUOTE: The I-40 in North Carolina was heavily damaged during Hurricane Helene, which was a huge problem as it’s a major road.
The Biden administration ignored many of the problems in North Carolina after the storm, leaving people sleeping in tents in winter. Who can ever forget FEMA under Biden, avoiding homes that had Trump signs in front of them?
When it came to the I-40, Biden’s transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg said it would take months, maybe even years to fix it.
Sean Duffy was sworn in as Trump’s transportation secretary just a few weeks ago and the I-40 is already open again. The North Carolina Department of Transportation announced the reopening of Interstate 40 on Saturday morning.
I-40 was destroyed by Hurricane Helene five months ago. Flash flooding along the Pigeon River damaged large sections of the eastbound lanes near the Tennessee line.
“This marks a significant step toward reconnecting North Carolina with Tennessee, and it comes as a relief to travelers and businesses alike", the NCDOT said.
It’s amazing what can be accomplished when you have competent people doing the job and a commitment to getting the work done.
4- Being energy independent is a national security issue and this will help America be prosperous and safe.
What We Know So Far About Trump's Proposed Big, Beautiful New Alaska Pipeline
QUOTE: On Tuesday, President Trump gave his first major speech to a joint session of Congress, and it was a big deal. One thing in particular, though, had ears perking up all across the Great Land - you could almost hear them. That thing was the president's announcement of an intended natural gas pipeline, from the North Slope to the Kenai Peninsula town of Nikiski.
And it will be a huge, beautiful pipeline: “My administration is working on a gigantic natural gas pipeline in Alaska, among the largest in the world, where Japan, South Korea and other nations want to be our partner with investments of trillions of dollars each,” he said during Tuesday night’s speech. “There’s never been anything like that one. It will be truly spectacular. It’s all set to go. The permitting is gotten.”
That pipeline is known as Alaska LNG, a massive proposed project that would send natural gas from Alaska’s North Slope 800 miles south to Nikiski, where it would get cooled to a liquid state and exported overseas — most likely to America’s Pacific allies like Japan.
So, how big, and how beautiful will it be? Well, not the world's biggest, but it's big. Beauty, we concede, is in the eye of the beholder; but Alaskans with jobs - now, that's beautiful: The Alaska LNG Project pipeline would be far from the longest in the world. That title goes to Russia’s Druzhba Pipeline, which covers more than 3,100 miles in Europe. In North America, the Keystone Oil Pipeline runs more than 2,100 miles between Canada and the United states. But at 42 inches, it would be large in diameter. A 2021 report from Global Energy Monitor puts the average pipeline diameter at 30 inches. The Keystone pipeline is 36 inches in diameter.
So, the whole thing is hardly a done deal yet. But it's looking a lot more likely than it was before, oh, say, November 5th, 2024.
5- If you have not seen this weird mindless repeating of the same message by Democrats, it is good for a laugh. This goes back to the question of who controls elected Democrats? How do they all get the same words and then proceed to deliver them exactly the same? It is bizarre. There is not an original thinker in the bunch! You can see the video at the link.
25 Dem senators parrot same script in videos slamming Trump, Musk
QUOTE: On Tuesday, 25 Democratic senators released separate videos parroting the same script slamming President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
In the morning, Senators Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and Cory Booker (D-N.J.) were mocked by X users for posting videos reciting near-identical lines before Trump's first speech to Congress.
However, as the day unfolded, more than two dozen Democratic senators posted similar videos echoing the same script, including Dick Durbin (Ill.), Chris Coons (Del.), Tammy Baldwin (Wis.), Tammy Duckworth (Ill.), Tim Kaine (Va.), Chris Van Hollen (Md.), Gary Peters (Mich.), Mazie Hirono (Hawaii), Peter Welch (Vt.), Ben Ray Luján (N.M.), Martin Heinrich (N.M.), Jeff Merkley (Ore.), Mark Kelly (Ariz.), Brian Schatz (Hawaii), Andy Kim (N.J.), Alex Padilla (Calif.), Mark Warner (Va.), Richard Blumenthal (Conn.), Angela Alsobrooks (Md.), Ed Markey (Mass.), Kirsten Gillibrand (N.Y.), and Sheldon Whitehouse (R.I.).
The senators' videos matched so closely that many followed the same movements for the introduction: reading the first line before taking a seat to continue reading the remainder of the script.

6- It is good to see manufacturing coming back to the United States.
Honda Moving Civic Production from Mexico to Indiana in Response to Trump’s Tariffs
QUOTE: Fans of Honda cars, prepare to start your engines. The Japanese manufacturing giant will produce its next-generation Civic hybrid in the U.S. state of Indiana rather than Mexico to side-step tariffs on one of its top-selling car models, a report Monday claims.
Three people familiar with the matter to state Mexico was initially chosen because rising costs were making it tough to produce the car in Indiana and Canada.
The outlet continued that now changed since President Donald Trump returned to the White House and set about protecting American jobs and American workers.
The change underscores how manufacturers are scrambling to adapt to U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposed 25% tariffs on goods from Mexico and Canada. While several automakers have expressed concerns about the levies, Honda’s move is the first concrete measure by a major Japanese car company.
Japan’s second-largest automaker had initially planned to manufacture the next-generation Civic in Guanajuato, Mexico, according to the three people. Production was slated to start from November 2027, according to one of the people. It now plans to build the new Civic model in Indiana from May 2028 with an expected annual production of around 210,000, one of the people said.
7- Every step taken to bring us back to sanity is good news, particularly when it comes to DEI and the climate scam.
BlackRock’s ‘Woke’ Era Is Over
QUOTE: When BlackRock joined a U.N.-sponsored climate coalition in March 2021, sustainability groups were thrilled.
Having the world’s largest investment firm on board instantly lent credibility to the Net Zero Asset Managers, an initiative committed to support the goal of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Dozens of major investment managers followed BlackRock’s lead.
“BlackRock is proud to put its name behind this initiative,” Chief Executive Larry Fink said at the time.
Nearly four years later, Fink was distancing himself. NZAM got a phone call on Jan. 9: BlackRock was out. Within days, the coalition was teetering.
BlackRock’s departure from the coalition and its reversal this week on several diversity, equity and inclusion policies are the latest examples of the company’s retreat from advocating for issues related to environmental, social and corporate-governance factors.
It has been gradually walking back its ESG initiatives for years after conservatives criticized the movement as being “woke” and legal risks grew.
8- Good news for small businesses across America.
Scott Bessent Delivers Small Business Relief with CTA Suspension
QUOTE: Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced the department will not enforce any fines or penalties associated with the Corporate Transparency Act.
“This is a victory for common sense,” Bessent said in a statement. “Today’s action is part of President Trump’s bold agenda to unleash American prosperity by reining in burdensome regulations, in particular for small businesses that are the backbone of the American economy.”
The legislation ordered businesses to report their ownership structures to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN).
The law required over 32 million businesses to comply with these new reporting requirements, and many small businesses have lingered in limbo due to a series of “on-again-off-again” deadlines to file the transparency reports.
Businesses that did not comply with the requirements could be subjected to fines up to $591 per day and could face up to $10,000 in criminal fines and up to two years in prison.
The Treasury Department in a release confirmed it will propose a rule that will narrow the scope of the regulation to foreign reporting companies only to ensure it advances the interest of “hard-working American taxpayers and small businesses.”
9- There is a subtle shifting going on after just six weeks of the Trump Administration.
US Manufacturing Expands For Second Month Under Trump, Driven by Stronger Demand and Policy Shifts
QUOTE: U.S. manufacturing expanded at its fastest pace since mid-2022 in February, according to the latest S&P Global U.S. Manufacturing PMI, which rose to 52.7 from 51.2 in January.
The report signals an acceleration in the sector’s recovery, driven by stronger new orders and increased production. This marks two consecutive months of expansion, coinciding with Donald Trump’s return to the presidency.
After years of stagnation, the U.S. manufacturing sector is showing renewed strength under President Trump’s leadership. The latest data signal a reversal from the prolonged contraction during Biden’s term. Businesses are responding to policy shifts aimed at strengthening domestic industry, securing supply chains, and encouraging investment.
10- Who knew that swearing held magical powers?
Swearing is linked with increased pain tolerance and strength
QUOTE: If you stub your toe or slam your finger in a door, there’s a good chance the first thing out of your mouth is a four-letter word. But although swearing is a near-universal feature of language, it is still considered taboo by many.
Olly Robertson is not one of them. “It’s something that we all share, and it is really magical. It holds so much power over us as societies,” said Robertson, a psychology researcher at the University of Oxford. “It does something for us.”
One of those things is an increase in pain tolerance.
Swearing is “a drug-free, calorie-neutral, cost-free means of self-help,” said Richard Stephens, a researcher and senior lecturer in psychology at Keele University in England.
Researchers are working to understand the mechanisms underlying swearing’s impact in a number of circumstances, with a major focus on pain. With that knowledge, Stephens said, swearing can more effectively be used in a clinical setting.
11- We just love this dedicated group of people working so well together to Make America Great Again!
PRAY for divine intervention.
