The biggest obstacle the United States faces at this point in time is the Republican party. They’re not acting to strip all of the funds from USAID, the Treasury, HHS, etc., but are waiting for the crisis of March 15 to hit and force the hand of Donald Trump to sign a CR. That’s all they’re doing. They prefer to work off the Biden budget, filled with the Green New Deal and Inflation Reduction Act pork, misspending, fraud and waste. They’re changing literally nothing in the future budget. Despite the fact that they have already passed numerous budget appropriation bills, they are not attending to the rest of them and the Senate has done nothing to pass the ones sent to them by the House.
This is Washington DC and it has waged war on the working class of America. We have been warning that simply electing Trump and setting DOGE loose would not solve the problems of this great nation, but we’re about to enter into a very dangerous period without the funds to appropriately attack the problem. In order to get Trump to sign the CR, the congress, especially the Republican caucus, is going to leverage the money required to fight the upcoming kinetic battle with the cartels, build the wall and deport the illegals to get him to sign the CR. This is the same as if there were Democrats in charge.
There’s way too much at stake to keep playing games like this. No nation has survived when the cost of debt service was in excess of the defense budget. That condition has killed more nations than guns. Right now, we spend about $870 billion on defense and our debt service is at $1 trillion plus. What does that mean? It means we’re in deep trouble, trouble that could be averted if our representatives in the House, the ones with the “R” next to their names, forced the reallocation of the waste and fraud identified by DOGE to the debt. What is their answer? To increase the defense budget by a couple of hundred billion dollars, and it still won’t outpace debt service, because to do so means printing more money to fill the gap.
These are existential things going on right now, national security issues that congress is willing to risk in order to keep from doing the hard things. By “hard things” I simply mean going about the appropriations process in a way obligated by the rules of the House itself. They haven’t done so for generations, because within those appropriations is where all of the demons live; where the waste comes from; where the fraud is initiated and none of them want to see it. Like children, they hide their eyes from discomfort, squeal and howl with resistance against change, but this nation was never in more dire need of change, change we voted for and change we support. Still, they stand around with their hands in their pockets and shrug. It’s a form of treason.
It’s one thing to understand the politics of Washington DC and another to accept business as usual when the people have done everything they can to change it. We’re in the middle of a geopolitical shift, struggling with the criminal alien invasion and too far in debt to keep from funding important actions that must be taken for the nation to survive.
The focus must be on America, first. Our borders have been invaded and a kinetic war looms on the horizon with the cartels in Mexico, but their minions permeate each and every city, each and every state and when the balloon goes up at the border, we will suffer the wrath of the cartels on our own land, some of whom might have made agreements with foreign military actors to assist them as the price for smuggling them into the U.S.
I have warned earlier that a war with Mexico might be on the horizon, but it will be fought here in the U.S. as well as Mexico. This is not a clean war, not by any means. Friends and relatives might be among those who will carry out military actions against us as soon as the cartels engage our military on the border. We have interdicted their money supply and threaten their power in Mexico. This will light off soon. Are you ready? I wonder who all understands that against this existential threat is the budget, the waste, the fraud that, with a CR, will be continued, extended and the House, if there were any patriots there, would be working overtime to clear the decks and make sure all waste and fraud would be available for this threat to our homeland.
I’ve been watching the pieces fall into place over the past few months. There are bigger, more dangerous enemies out there, but none more important to life here and now in America. The fact that some of the munitions we sent to Ukraine has been transshipped to Mexico is a known fact, facilitated by our own government actors for profit. At some point we’re going to have to confront the treason that has taken place, but there will be no bigger understanding of that until we see it play out. That might be too late.
This is one reason there must be peace in Ukraine, whatever that turns out to be, because we must be on somewhat of a friendly reset with Russia, or we risk Russia involving itself with the cartels to give us a taste of our own medicine.
Whatever happens, the United States must get its act together pretty soon and start acting like a nation with concerns that affect us all. I hate the idea of seeing that as a result of large scale terrorist activity here, but that’s exactly what it might take. I think it starts at the border, but that might just be the diversion that other international provocateurs are waiting for, might have actually instigated. If it is, we must take the treason of the Biden Administration seriously and be ready to do something about it, whether that involves Obama or not.

There is so much theft, fraud, waste, and payments to terrorists and foreign countries, that America would be running a surplus if they were eliminated..We are talking trillions in SS, Medicare/Medicaid, the Dept of mis-Education, and the Pentagon...But of course, the DC parasites got wealthy promoting this fraud and waste...Trump cannot cave in on the budget...No budget is far better than the existing one....

I gave up on Congress and the bureaucracy in Washington, D.C., decades ago. A majority of Americans now realize that D.C. is the enemy. They are not on our side.
I see secession as the only answer. The system in place now does not work for the majority of Americans.
