Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of this new report involves the FBI sources who admit that they're worried about Elon Musk coming in and cleaning house as well.
Trump made a campaign promise vowing to create a government efficiency commission to audit the entire federal government. Musk would reportedly lead the effort.
One source tells the Times that cutting waste at the FBI will naturally lead to a massive reduction in staff, because the waste is everywhere in this partisan cesspool.
“When he tries to do efficiency at headquarters, the place is going to have five people … if he’s talking about a lot of dead weight,” they said, according to Picket.
“Try to find a person that’s actually working,” they continued, suggesting the FBI is clearly "bloated." //

Those that agree to testify about FBI corruption, malfeasance and misfeasance and bring receipts, can stay.
On day one of Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency, he canceled the Keystone Pipeline. Since then, he’s waged a war on drilling and energy and has tried to shove a green agenda down our throats. It’s one of the many reasons a Democrat won’t be in the White House come January.
On Thursday, he made a strange but somewhat conciliatory speech where he promised a smooth transition of power to President-elect Donald Trump.
Yet it was only hours before he made a move to defy the GOP nominee and former president INCOMING PRESIDENT and further limited drilling in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. //
But in 2017, Trump signed a tax bill mandating at least two lease sales in the refuge’s 1.6 million-acre coastal plain by the end of 2024. //
Trump reinstated the drilling program in a 2017 tax cut law enacted by congressional Republicans. Even so, no drilling has occurred in the refuge. //
USGS estimates there’s somewhere between 4.3 and 11.8 billion barrels of oil in the coastal plain. Those are huge numbers. For comparison, Alaska’s second biggest oil field, Kuparuk, holds about 2.5 billion barrels.

You bastards called us every name in the book for 8 years+. You smeared us at every opportunity.
Never once did you extend an olive branch and acknowledge that we love our country and are promoting the ideas that we sincerely believe are best for us all.
No, you threw accusation after accusation. Racists, sexists, homophobic, Islamophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, misogynist. You divided every person in the country into categories and accused us of hating every last one of those categories.
Your behavior has been pure evil - and now you want grace and reconciliation?
And while Trump's "NeverTrump" detractors like Rick Wilson and the like would say "Well, we helped kick him out of office in 2020," the net effect of that effort was a) to make Trump get even louder and b) to drive even more people in Trump's direction (including bigtime movers and shakers like Elon Musk and Joe Rogan), which culminated in one of the most (if not the most) spectacular comebacks in American political history.
Something equally delicious about the voter repudiation of these types of tactics on Tuesday will be that five or 10 years down the road and beyond, very few people will remember much about the NeverTrump movement. But they will for sure remember how Trump seemingly rose from the political ashes to get his revenge in the best way possible: by way of the ballot box.
There were some moments of great joy, such as the moment Pennsylvania supporters found out.

The best thing for the country would not be a big or small victory for Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and their phony “unity” schtick. It wouldn’t even be a razor-thin Trump-Vance win. The best outcome for the health of our nation — and democracy — would be a landslide victory for Donald Trump.
Just Deserts
First, and most importantly, America needs a decisive victory to communicate to Democrat leaders, media propagandists, bureaucratic tyrants, violent rioters, Big Tech censors, race hustlers, and rogue three-letter agencies that their underhanded and often illegal actions will not be rewarded with electoral victory.
No, Democrats don’t deserve to win after waging unprecedented lawfare against their political opponents, from the former president to peaceful pro-life protesters. They don’t deserve to win after turning federal agencies into a Democrat get-out-the-vote hydra. Or after lying about the integrity of the 2020 election and persecuting honest Americans who questioned the procedures and results. Or after inciting racial violence that razed pockets of flyover America and then lying that the rioting and looting was “mostly peaceful.”
Democrats don’t deserve to win after airing blatant and thoroughly debunked propaganda on network television 24/7/365. Or after colluding with Big Tech ... //
Once again, as voting comes to a close, business establishments in America’s urban centers have boarded up their windows, and we all know it isn’t in anticipation of a Harris-Walz win. It’s to minimize the tantrum damage if the Trump-deranged leftist toddlers don’t get their way.
This time around, though, the imagery isn’t just of an unruly child screaming on the floor of a grocery store after being denied a piece of candy. It’s of a kid who taunts and antagonizes his older siblings until they’ve had enough and counterstrike.
It’s that simple, really: Only a Trump blowout will communicate the degree to which Americans are done with Democrats’ dirty tricks. //
Second, for faith in our democratic process, it’s detrimental for Americans not to know the election results on election night. A decisive Trump victory, however, could give us a quick and confidence-boosting conclusion.
The “new normal” of days-long ballot counting isn’t normal at all. //
Delays in vote tallies sow massive distrust in our democratic process. Just four years ago, in the dead of night while most voters and journalists were asleep, something shady happened in Michigan and Wisconsin. As my colleague John Daniel Davidson wrote at the time, in both swing states, Trump led on election night. And in both states, overnight dumps of mail-in ballots went 100 percent for Biden and precisely zero percent for Trump. Those who pointed out this seemingly statistical impossibility on Twitter were censored.
Of course, a landslide Harris victory could produce a quick result too, but there’s one more factor she absolutely can’t deliver best for the American people. //
Finally, Trump’s policies will obviously be better for Americans than Harris’, and we all know it. Despite Democrats attempting to brand Harris as the “change” candidate, we’re living under her “leadership” right now, and it’s a nightmare. //
A Trump victory this week would spare suffering Americans from living in Biden-Harris hell. But the best thing for the country — for justice, democracy, and everyday living — would be not just a win but an absolute blowout.

This was the greatest interview EVER!
JOE ROGAN: “Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs? — Were you serious about that?”
DONALD TRUMP: “Sure, why not?”
8:26 AM · Oct 26, 2024 //
Trump went into American political history to explain why tariffs are a better source of government revenue than a system such as an income tax on citizens. The American Founders agreed.
They debated and soundly rejected a federal income tax system, opting instead in 1789 to institute an ad valorem tariff on “all articles of foreign manufacture” as the sole mechanism for funding the federal government. The Tariff Revenue Act of 1789 was the very first law on the books of the very first Congress. That’s why a constitutional amendment was required in 1913 just to make an income tax system legal in this country. //
The income tax system has fueled a monstrous expansion of federal power and created a military-industrial complex that is insatiable in its quest for control of global resources to keep itself in power. This complex seeks to destroy the last vestiges of our Founding system in favor of a globalist “New World Order” and will destroy or even kill anyone who stands in its way — including Trump.
Tariffs Mind America’s Business
Our founders, by contrast, sought not an empire, but a peaceful commercial republic. Our national purpose was to avoid at all costs foreign entanglements that made us vulnerable to the whims of foreign powers.
The tariff revenue system, they reasoned, achieved that. It also met their two major domestic objectives: 1) it was sufficient to obtain the annual revenue for a very limited but fully functional federal government, and 2) it is by far the least oppressive option for Americans.
NBC, backed into a corner over the blatant FCC violation, was forced to throw the GOP nominee a bone. That bone came in the form of two ad spots during Sunday's NASCAR coverage, together with another aired during Sunday Night Football. //

Shanahan has released a great new ad about Trump Derangement Syndrome. It's savage and funny at the same time.
https://x.com/NicoleShanahan/status/1829291690277966165
It asks if you deny the problems of historic inflation and illegal immigration — and are you willing to elect someone who was the "least popular" person to occupy the office of the Vice President "in modern history" and offers no policy simply because you are being told "anyone but Trump"? You might be suffering from TDS.
You can solve that all with "Independence" and free yourself. Independence allows for constructive critical thinking. If you are cool with being lied to about your leader's cognitive decline, "support Orwellian totalitarianism, or are excited about Communist fiscal policy, Independence may not be right for you," the ad intones.
What makes it even more intriguing as an ad is that it is Shanahan's story as well as the story of other former Democrats who have traveled that path into the light about the mainstream media. She's willing to admit it, talk about her journey, and help bring others into the light.
They're something like the "Morning in America" ads where you see the opportunities before you. You can make it happen. "What will we do with this moment?" Trump asks. "Look at the opportunities before us."

"The people dreamed this country. And it's the people who are making this country great again," Trump declares at the end. //

I've always thought Harris Faulkner was great. She has the perfect demeanor for what she does; she is brilliant and cultured. She has a pleasant speaking tone, and she seems pretty unflappable. She's a professional by any measure, ... //
Harris just wasn't having any of that. She proceeded to let Aristimuno have it right in his barely-existent logic center.
“But Jose, you know that he has denied that,” Faulkner cut in. “He has denied that over and over and by the way, if he wanted to do that he would have – he would have done it when he was president already.” //
Look, the issue here isn't necessarily abortion, on which topic Donald Trump holds what appear to be fairly moderate views - and which issue former President Trump has also repeatedly said is now, thanks to the Supreme Court, where it belongs, with elected representatives in the various state legislatures. That's the Constitution, that's federalism, that's also the 10th Amendment.
No, the real issue is this: Why do Democrats, from Kamala Harris down to the lowest-ranking intern X-poster and bloviator, keep lying about this?
One of the best parts of that clip is that people start heckling her during her big applause line. The crowd then starts groaning and booing, leaving her to pretend they are actually cheering for what she said. Everything about her is so contrived, and it just oozes from every word and mannerism.
Harris has a record. She has a record of comparing those who disagree with her to fascists and claiming they are an existential threat to democracy. She has a record of attempting to jail her political opponents. She has a record of trying to score political points at the expense of vulnerable Americans. She is not looking to "make progress." She's looking to continue the prior four years of failed policies. //
No one is buying this stuff, and it's simply too late to change the narrative. You can't go from comparing your opponents to the Third Reich on the Washington Mall earlier in the week to preaching unity a day later. All that does is make her look even more inauthentic and fake. //

Democrats: We have to unify! We have to lower the temperature!
Also Democrats: Except for those 90 million Trump supporters , their familes, and anyone aho has any connection to them. Then you can go all Maxine Waters on them.
Media / democrats: Trump voters are fascist garbage, and Trump is a totalitarian Nazi dictator who is Literally Hitler® and will kill women who have abortions, lock up anyone who supports it, deport every Latino in America, and is going to send the media to concentrationc camps based on his enemies list. He is an immediate threat to democracy and all we hold dear if he is elected. He will start WW3 and get a billion people killed. He must be stopped!
Trump: I love America and its people. There is no reason for these problems were have, and I intend to right this ship back to prosperity for everyone like we had before. The working men and women of America have been the backbone of the nation and give us everything we use, and I intend to give them a place at the table again. The elite ruling class has shut them out and mocked and impugned them for wanting back in. You can't lead America if you don't love all the American people. Let's make America great again for everyone.
Media / Democrats: Trump needs to tone down the hateful rhetoric and stop sending code words and dog whistles to his radical followers before someone gets hurt or worse.
"While I am running a campaign of positive solutions to save America, Kamala Harris is running a campaign of hate. She has spent all week comparing her political opponents to the most evil mass murderers in history," Trump's statement began.
This is in reference to Harris attempting to paint Trump as a Hitler figure, a lead many on the left followed by referring to Trump supporters as "Nazis," especially during his Madison Square Garden rally.
"Now, on top of everything, Joe Biden calls our supporters 'garbage,'" Trump continued, leading to the most important sentence in his statement. "You can't lead America if you don't love the American People."
"Kamala Harris and Joe Biden have shown they are both unfit to be President of the United States. I am proud to lead the biggest, broadest, and most important political coalition in American history. We are welcoming historic numbers of Latinos, African Americans, Asian Americans, and citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed. It is my desire to be the President of all the people.". //

The campaign is supposed to be a debate about ideas and policies. President Trump has upheld his end of that.
In contrast, Harris has done nothing but lie, slander, demean, and defame her opponent. The only policy she has presented clearly is pro-abortion. That's it. The rest has been hateful bigoted lying spew hurled President Trump's way.
There is one thing, however, that Mr. Gingrich is missing here. There's a lot more to the state of the race, and Trump's Madison Square Garden rally, than just the near-impossible odds of Trump's taking New York. There's even more to it than the task of helping down-ballot Republicans in New York. There's a bigger picture; there's a bigger message being delivered here, and that message was trebly effective coming from New York.
New York, you see, isn't just an American city. More than any other city on the planet, perhaps, New York is an international city. It's the center of global finance. It's the economic epicenter of the planet, and what's more, it's a major cultural center. A significant event in New York, like Trump's Madison Square Garden rally, draws eyes from all over the planet. And by hosting a huge, boisterous, in-your-face MAGA rally in Madison Square Garden, Trump is in effect throwing down the gauntlet not only to American Democrats but to the whole world, and the message is "I'm coming back, and this time I'm not making the same mistakes I made the first time."
It was a powerful message. It remains a powerful message. What's more, it's a winning message. And delivered this close to the election, it's a game-changing message.

I love historical documentaries. I’m currently watching one about the 1939 pro-Nazi rally at Madison Square Garden. Oh wait, it’s a live Trump rally! My bad.

Perhaps most disturbingly, Democrat vice presidential nominee Tim Walz echoed their comments, telling a Nevada audience Sunday, "There’s a direct parallel to a big rally that happened in the mid-1930s at Madison Square Garden.”
But here's some food for thought. The same people making this garbage claim won't tell you two key things.
For starters, as we noted, there was a significant Jewish presence at the rally, with Israeli flags also being on full display. Receipts:

Please remind these washed up Democrat Morons and their media lapdogs that in 1924 100’s of KKK in full uniform marched unimpeded into the Democrat National Convention at Madison Square Garden in order to encourage their Party Leaders to pass legislation that was favorable to them. After all, they had been doing the Democrat Parties dirty work by terrorizing and lynching Black Americans and those that supported them. It was time for the Democrats to return the favor.
What JD Vance did here was not only turn Trump's attack into a positive thing, but he also framed the issue as a populist "people against the powerful" theme that puts much of the political establishment of both parties in the "enemy forces" column. Yes, Pelosi is vile, but she had a lot of help from both party establishments in opening our borders for the sake of cheap labor, sending our industry to an enemy country for cheap imports, and fighting all attempts to strengthen the American working class.
