Trump 2.0: The Swamp’s Worst Nightmare Becomes Reality

Trump, victorious, Kevin Jackson

What a weekend for real justice in America. The Left is reeling, grasping for their fainting couches as President Trump does what every Republican before him was too cowardly to attempt: firing the entrenched bureaucrats who think they run the country.

Trump doesn’t have to play nice anymore. There’s no “bipartisanship” charade. This time, he’s not just draining the swamp—he’s demolishing it.

The Great Purge: Trump’s Not Here to Babysit Swamp Rats

Remember how every Republican administration since Reagan kept Democrat holdovers like prized antiques? That’s over. The so-called ‘uniparty’ was a revolving door, swapping out figureheads while the real power stayed put. But Trump? He’s tossing these relics onto the street like yesterday’s garbage.

 

Jen Psaki had a meltdown over the latest firings, calling it an “unprecedented purge.”


But that’s false. It’s just unprecedented for a Republican to have the backbone to clean house. Democrats have done this for decades. Obama didn’t hesitate to purge Bush-era officials. The difference? Trump is making sure the ones who stayed to sabotage him are gone for good.

One of his most strategic moves? Firing the highest-ranking remaining FBI officials—the very people who led the witch hunt against Trump and persecuted January 6 protesters. David Sundberg, the FBI Assistant Director for Washington, D.C., is out. Sundberg led the phony J6 ‘investigations’ while conveniently failing to solve the mystery of the pipe bomber. Who could have predicted that?

A total of 88 FBI agents, the same ones who worked on Trump’s cases, were physically escorted out of the Washington Field Office. These weren’t routine resignations. These were operatives caught red-handed, trying to turn America into a banana republic. If they had any dignity left, they’d walk themselves straight to a confessional.

Meanwhile, a whistleblower dropped a bombshell to Senator Chuck Grassley’s office, revealing that Jack Smith’s federal investigation into Trump’s 2020 election case was launched by a fired FBI official who violated the Hatch Act. His name? Timothy Thibault. A rogue bureaucrat who had no authority to start criminal investigations yet somehow orchestrated a federal case against Trump.

 

The very foundation of Jack Smith’s investigation was laid by someone who wasn’t even allowed to open a criminal probe. You can’t make this up.

And what about these “sedition hunters”?

 

The 51 Intel Officials: Exiled From the Gravy Train

Remember the 51 former intel officials who falsely claimed Hunter Biden’s laptop was “Russian disinformation”? Their reward for brazen election interference? A permanent ban from entering federal buildings.

No more cushy consulting gigs. No more lobbying paychecks. They’ll have to go grift somewhere else. Maybe MSNBC needs more “experts” to push conspiracy theories.

USAID: The Globalist Slush Fund Meets Its Reckoning

One of the most delicious eliminations? 50 bureaucrats at USAID.

For years, USAID has been a thinly disguised money laundering operation for the Left. Here’s how it works:

  • Activists create a fake “humanitarian” NGO.
  • Democrats funnel tax dollars into it.
  • The NGO does nothing useful (or actively works against American interests).
  • The activists get paid and donate back to Democrats.

It’s a brilliant scam—until someone like Trump pulls the plug. Now, USAID, which helped flood our country with illegal immigrants and pushed radical gender ideology abroad, is being gutted.

The Left is terrified that Trump will shut it down entirely. And he should. If it’s such a noble organization, why do its alumni keep showing up as Biden donors?

No More Backstabbers: The GOP’s RINO Problem Ends Here

Trump’s new hiring policy is simple: No traitors. The banned list? GOP establishment hacks who betrayed him. So anybody associated with the following won’t work in the Trump administration:

  • No Nikki Haley.
  • No Mike Pence.
  • No Liz or Dick Cheney.
  • No Mitt Romney or Paul Ryan.
  • No Bush-era holdovers like John Bolton, James Mattis, or Mark Esper.

Trump put it bluntly on Truth Social:

“In order to save time, money, and effort, it would be helpful if you would not send, or recommend to us, people who worked with, or are endorsed by [the above] … or any of the other people suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome, more commonly known as TDS.”

Translation: If you’ve ever spent time at a Lincoln Project fundraiser, don’t bother sending your resume.

The Coup Backfires: Trump’s Revenge Tour Has Just Begun

The Left’s coup against Trump may go down as the biggest political miscalculation in history.

They thought they could remove him in 2020 and secure permanent power. Instead, they unleashed something far worse: Trump 2.0. A Trump unshackled, unfiltered, and unwilling to tolerate the saboteurs who hijacked his first term.

With four more years, the destruction of the Deep State will end on a note of brutality. And they never saw it coming. Even if they manage to see it now, they can’t stop it.

This time, there’s no do-over for Democrats. Trump is playing for keeps.

Voltaire's birthday 11-21-1694 - A brief essay by Steve Weidenkopf

Today marks the three hundred and thirtieth birthday of the Frenchman François-Marie Arouet, better known by his nom de plume, Voltaire (1694-1778).

Born into a bourgeois family during the reign of Louis XIV, the “Sun King” (r. 1643-1715), Voltaire suffered tragedy at a young age when his mother died. Never close with his father or brother, Voltaire exhibited a rebellious attitude toward authority from his youth. His brilliant mind was fostered in the care of the Society of Jesus, who introduced him to the joys of literature and theater. Despite his later criticisms against the Church, Voltaire, throughout his life, fondly recalled his dedicated Jesuit teachers.

Although he spent time as a civil servant in the French embassy to the Hague, Voltaire’s main love was writing—an endeavor where he excelled in various genres, including poetry, which led to his appointment as the royal court poet for King Louis XV. Widely recognized as one of the greatest French writers, and even hyperbolically referred to by ...

Happy Friday, Digital Neighbors!! Slept in a little this morning. Woke up at my ordinary time, hit the hour timer, and wandered back into short, incoherent dreamland. It was a good hour to try and get a little more rest after a long day yesterday. We had a good staff team-building day with personal prayer and then looking at the DISC tool as a way to appreciate our gifts as we work together for the good of our parish family.

Had a meeting in the evening to explore using our auditorium for an Emergency Overnight Shelter in the winter for the homeless and unhoused in our local area. Lots of potential, lots of work if that is to come to fruition. As I mentioned last night, this is where the rubber hits the road on personal charity. People feel comfortable giving money to support charities, but the possibility of hosting and staffing one is way out of the comfort zone for most. Prayer and time will tell.
Off to some “ifferisms” for your Friday cup of Joe.

If you get gloomy, just take an ...

The Beautiful

 

The Beautiful

 

Said the Disciple to the Lover, “Sir, before I left the world I heard certain men who were held in high esteem and thought to know the will of the Beloved say that those who loved the Beautiful did not love the Beloved but loved idols, yet in the Garden of the Beloved we are ever striving to create beauty for the pleasure of the Beloved.  Were they then speaking the truth?”

The Lover answered, “Those who said this had never glimpsed the form of the Beloved nor ever truly sought Him, for all beauty is but the reflection of the beauty of the Beloved, although seen very dimly as in a dark and faulty mirror, even as all goodness is a dim reflection of the goodness of the Beloved.  So it is that those who love beauty and goodness recognize dimly in them the form of the Beloved and though often in ignorance those who are seeking the Beautiful and the Good are seeking after the Beloved.”
