Four DHS officials working for the sub-agency FEMA are being terminated after they violated one of President Donald Trump's executive orders. As RedState reported, a payment of $59 million was sent to luxury hotels in New York City to house illegal immigrants during the first week of February. That came after the White House ordered a stop to such spending, with the intention being to redirect the money to disaster relief for Americans.

It is unclear what impact this will have on South Africa. My guess is that Ramaphosa will double down with his racism and fascism as that is all any of the major South African parties seem capable of offering. The one part of this that is deadly serious is the invitation for Afrikaners to emigrate. If a large number of them start looking for the exits, and I'm not enough of an authority on that country to hazard a guess because the Afrikaners have been in southern South Africa longer than the current Black population, the economic impact will be extreme. Rhodesia was a major food exporter. However, Zimbabwe, after land confiscation much like that envisioned by South Africa, is an economic and agricultural basket case.

Quite honestly, it is really about time the West started treating South Africa like the Third World s*** hole that it is. It has dined out on the legend of Nelson Mandela for thirty years while engaging in behavior much more oppressive than that of the government it replaced. Moral cowardice by the West has allowed brutality and corruption to flourish. Hopefully, those days are over for the United States. //

Former South African here (I am not white and I grew up under apartheid). I am about the same age as Elon Musk and I came to the United States for college (when I was 18). Your article is very accurate. After the euphoria of Mandela being released and having elections where all people could vote, the country just went downhill. The corruption is insane ... and it is open and blatant. And the rate of violent crime skyrocketed. Everyone knew someone who had been murdered. And rapes also increased. The government scapegoated the white racists, of course. Those who could leave the country did so. But a lot of people could not afford to leave. And everyone lives in a state of fear. Add to that, there are massive power shortages largely due to mismanagement and corruption. The country has something called "load shedding" where they have scheduled blackouts just about every week. As to the point of Afrikaner migration ... a lot of Afrikaners work on American farms under the farm guest worker program. The Afrikaners used to be the vilified group because of apartheid. But, just like in America, things went too far and the white oppressors were replaced by the black oppressors (as South Africans like to say). The Afrikaners have been vilified and persecuted for the last 30 years. And I am sure Elon Musk knows all about this and has shared his insights with DJT.

I am hereby instructing Secretary Lee Zeldin to immediately go back to my Environmental Orders, which were terminated by Crooked Joe Biden, on Water Standards and Flow pertaining to SINKS, SHOWERS, TOILETS, WASHING MACHINES, DISHWASHERS, etc., and to likewise go back to the common sense standards on LIGHTBULBS, that were put in place by the Trump Administration, but terminated by Crooked Joe. I look forward to signing these Orders. THANK YOU!!!

Most of Biden's regulations would do little to lower emissions significantly or affect the vast climate system. They mostly seemed designed to punish the American people, virtue signal, and send billions to the Green New Deal scammers.

Unfortunately for those in the streets, there are times when the hard won lessons of the past have to be relearned at great cost…and if not learned the price may well be your very soul. //

The original essay framed a two state solution upending the current paradigm that would have Israel trading land for peace as it has done so many times without securing peace. The solution would require the Arab nations and Turkey to trade land for peace…while creating a new nation.
“The Jews are a peculiar people: things permitted to other nations are forbidden to the Jews.
Other nations drive out thousands, even millions of people and there is no refugee problem. Russia did it, Poland and Czechoslovakia did it. Turkey drove out a million Greeks and Algeria a million Frenchman. Indonesia threw out heaven knows how many Chinese—and no one says a word about refugees.
But in the case of Israel, the displaced Arabs have become eternal refugees. Everyone insists that Israel must take back every single Arab. Arnold Toynbee calls the displacement of the Arabs an atrocity greater than any committed by the Nazis.
Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. But when Israel is victorious, it must sue for peace. Everyone expects the Jews to be the only real Christians in this world.” Eric Hoffer
(Note: The late British historian Arnold Toynbee condemned Zionism vociferously but he eventually had to acknowledge his hostility was “disproportionate” and misplaced i.e. he ascribed to Zionism his contempt for Western colonialism. Toynbee was a Chatham House apologist ahead of his time) //

There are Middle East “experts” who believe Israel, Iran, Turkey and Egypt are vying to be the regional hegemon when in truth Israel simply wants to live in peace and Iran is in such a precarious position it cannot influence the emerging reality on the ground. On the other hand, after leaving tens of billions in equipment to the Taliban and strengthening Iran at every opportunity the Biden administration has continued the Obama policy of arming the enemies of Israel with the State Department informing Congress on December 20th 2024 it had approved the sale of $4.69 billion in equipment including 555 US-made M1A1 Abrams tanks and $630 million for 2,183 Hellfire air-to-surface missiles along with $30 million in precision-guided munitions to Egypt.
Egypt has no neighbors to defend against that would require 555 US-made M1A1 Abrams tanks and $630 million for 2,183 Hellfire air-to-surface missiles along with $30 million in precision-guided munitions…except Israel. The axis developing is that of a north, Turkey, and south, Egypt, alliance against Israel and controlling Syria would put Turkey on Israel’s border. Open your eyes; Egypt is remilitarizing the Sinai; building numerous highway tunnels under the Suez that open to numerous highways to nowhere in the Sinai while quadrupling its arms storage facilities along the canal i.e. preparing for war against Israel in violation of the Israel/Egypt peace treaty. .
Not only has Egypt militarized the Sinai and violate international law by not accepting Palestinian refugees from Gaza into the Sinai as a signatory to the African Union Convention on Refugees it has now been proven the Rafah border was laced with tunnels allowing for Hamas to be armed. Egypt is not an ally of the west. //

Trump would be well advised to 1) remove the 60 or so B-60 nuclear gravity bombs from Incirlik, Turkey, before withdrawing given Erdogan has hinted the bombs belong to Turkey under adverse possession, then 2) stop the sale of military equipment to Egypt, and finally, 3)insist upon a NATO blackout of Turkey. The truth is Turkey is not an ally of the west and hasn’t been for decades; Turkey is an Islamic enemy that should be treated as such…with suspicion and utmost caution.
Defusing the situation will require a strong dose of fear God…the beginning of wisdom.

We’re about to find out what Pam Bondi is made of.

Any FBI agent involved in leaking that ICE raid better go to prison.

Not resignations. Not reprimands. Not security clearances revoked.

Prison. For a long time.

NEW: Tom Homan says on Hannity tonight that DOJ has opened up a criminal investigation into the leaking of an upcoming ICE operation in LA. Says initial leads are pointing to FBI as source of leak, and added that whoever it is will lose their job, pension, and will go to jail.

No matter the intent, it is an unassailable fact that in these three instances involving Politico, the New York Times, and the AP, the massive increase in their subscription business with the US government coincides with Joe Biden's election and is really obvious by February 2021, Biden's first full month in office. There is no such volume of subscriptions in either the Obama or Trump administrations. //

Trump needs to order an investigation into this unseemly financial connection between the Biden administration and the media that covered it and give America a full accounting of what they find. //

Since the subscriptions were purchased with my tax money, I demand complete and total access to all the politico pro and NYT subscription services.
