Who Caused the Counter-Revolution?

 In Victor Davis Hanson's article, he discusses the dramatic changes in governance brought about by Donald Trump in his first month of office. The piece highlights the challenges faced by the previous administrations regarding spending, immigration, and military engagements.

• Trump's approach is likened to a counter-revolution aimed at correcting decades of unsustainable spending and open borders.

• Historical context is provided, comparing Trump’s swift changes to Franklin Roosevelt’s implementation of the New Deal.

• There is a strong emphasis on the need to manage the national debt responsibly and to reevaluate immigration policies, particularly the influx of illegal immigrants.

• The author asserts that the previous administrations' practices have led to a bloated bureaucracy that needs restructuring.

• Hanson argues in favor of objective measures in areas like gender and sports and discusses the importance of empirical education methods in American institutions.

• The author raises concerns about the treatment of law enforcement and the military, advocating for a focus on national security rather than cultural indoctrination.

• Criticism is directed at former administrations for fostering a culture of irresponsibility and unchecked growth in government programs.

• The article positions Trump’s actions as necessary “shock treatment” to address long-standing issues exacerbated by his predecessors.

• The left is accused of being hypocritical for condemning budget cuts and deregulation, while they are the ones who initially expanded government and created the debt crisis.

• The significance of adhering to fundamental principles, such as accountability and hard work, is reiterated.

Hanson’s observation of Trump's initial month in office portrays it as a significant turning point aimed at restoring common sense to governance in America. His arguments reflect a belief that profound changes are essential for the future stability of the nation, emphasizing the need to prioritize fiscal responsibility, national security, and America’s foundational values.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
