Beege UPDATE: Cloture vote done - confirmation clock running. LifeZette reports that As Kash Patel Nears FBI Confirmation, Peter Strzok Suddenly Deletes All His X Posts. Fine, I'm sure Elon can bring them back. Virginia Kruta at Da Wire hears ‘Accountability Will Be Coming!’: SecDef Promises To Investigate Biden’s Afghanistan Boondoggle, "I don’t want to wait longer, but I always want to get it right..." At NewsMax, RFK Jr. to HHS Staff: Nothing Off Limits, "Nothing is going to be off limits," Kennedy said about his efforts to reduce chronic diseases, according to Politico. "Some of the possible factors we will investigate were formerly taboo or insufficiently scrutinized. Those who are unwilling to embrace those kinds of ideas can retire." The Peacock whines the Senate confirms Howard Lutnick as commerce secretary, a key role for Trump’s trade agenda. Sunny @sunnyright, "His Secretary of State is Cuban, his Attorney General is a woman, his Secretary of Agriculture is a woman, his nominee for Labor Secretary is a Hispanic woman, his HUD Secretary is a black man, his Secretary of Education is a woman, his Secretary of Homeland Security is a woman, his Chief of Staff is a woman, his DNI is a minority woman, his UN Ambassador is a woman, and his SBA Administrator is a woman." Quote The Hill @thehill, "Trump’s idea of ‘competence’ — only white men need apply" (@TheHillOpinion) https://trib.al/KsFMlwM"
Jeff Crouere at Town Hall thinks Peace Will Be Trump's Greatest Achievement. Breitbart reports U.S. and Russia Take ‘First Step’ With ‘Very Useful’ Ukraine War Talks, Agree Trump-Putin Meeting to Come. At Althouse, "We weren’t just listening to each other, but we heard each other. I have reason to believe that the American side started to better understand our positions." "Said Sergey V. Lavrov, Russia’s foreign minister, quoted in "U.S. and Russia Pursue Partnership in a Head-Spinning Shift in Relations/The two sides met in Saudi Arabia for their most extensive discussions in years. In addition to Ukraine, business ties were on the table" (NYT)." Sundance at CTH has U.S and Russia Agree to Communication and Consultation Mechanism for Peace Talks, Embassy Staffing Will Return in Moscow and DC, WATCH CLOSELY: Zelenskyy Cancels Pre-Planned Trip to Saudi Arabia and Perfectly European: Germany, France, U.K, Poland and EU Commission Refuse to Send Troops on Peacekeeping Mission to Ukraine Without U.S. Troops.

Teri Christof at RedState, Trump Puts Zelensky on Notice: ‘You’ve Had Your Seat at the Table—And Look What Happened.’ At the Asia Times, Can the Alternative for Germany save NATO? Vodka Pundit at PJM sees How to Kill NATO With This 1 Weird Trick (and it Isn’t Trump’s). Tom Knighton at Bearing Arms reports Mexican President Threatens Gun Makers If Trump Declares Cartels 'Terrorists.' "Why would Sheinbaum object to the cartels being classified as terrorist organizations? She vocally rejected allegations she and her government were in the cartel's pocket, so why is she so quick to try and defend them here and now? Seems a little bizarre, doesn't it?" Liberty Daily, hears China Furious After State Department Changes Line on “Taiwan Independence”.
At Althouse, Another sign that the Trump movement is extending far into the culture. "This NYT article about how people are wearing furs again: "What Happened to the Stigma of Wearing Fur? After years of protests and strides in fake skins, vintage furs are popping up all over.". The first paragraph uses the word "fur-a-palooza." From Da Fetched, Elon Musk says Trump Derangement Syndrome Is Real: The Left Have “Become Completely Irrational.” Drew Berquist hosts Karoline Leavitt: ‘Democrat Party and Mainstream Media are Spiraling Out of Control’. Dave Strom at Hat Hair thinks Now This Is Just Stupid: Raheem. @RaheemKassam, "NEW@thenatpulse: Scientists Call for Elon Musk's Ban from UK Science Club. Elon Musk faces expulsion from the Royal...... READ ON:" Curtis Houck @CurtisHouck "Politico reporter claiming, without evidence, that planes are crashing because of Doanld Trump. This is the world of BlueSky that Brian Stelter, Oliver Darcy, etc. don't have a problem with. Why? Because they believe it's reality." Maxwell Tabarrok @MTabarrok, "Worth noting that all the recent news over plane crashes is probably just the result of attention bias Plane crashes are still on a downward trend."
Dave Strom, Now She Tells Us... The Vigilant Fox@VigilantFox, NEW: Dr. Deborah Birx admits the COVID shots were pushed on the wrong people, saying the rollout on young people ignored the science. Now, she tells us. “The messenger RNA vaccine should have been rolled out for the people that were at risk for severe disease because that’s what the vaccine was developed for,” Birx said. She also confessed the COVID shot was never “designed” to prevent infection: “That is not what the COVID vaccine was designed to do. It wasn’t designed against infection.” People lost their jobs under the lie that no one was safe until everyone was vaccinated. Now, four years later, they admit young people never really needed it—and it wasn’t even designed to prevent infection." Kevin Bass PhD MS@kevinnbass, "Ever wonder why officials exaggerated COVID-19 risk? Here's why: "When people start to realize that 99% of us are going to be fine, it becomes more and more difficult [to get people to comply]." - Deborah Birx, Trump's lockdown architect They lied to us. On purpose."
Kurt Schlichter at TownHall says This Veteran Can Finally Recommend Enlisting in the Military Again.
Beege Welborn is Introducing This Week's Theme: 'DOGE Is Not An Official Government Department'. At Gateway Pundit, Former RNC Chair Who Now Works for MSNBC Has Total On-Air Meltdown About Elon Musk and DOGE (VIDEO). Michael Steele wasn't a bad governor for Maryland, but he's gone nuts with TDS.

Joy Pullman at Da Fed, The Atlantic Admits The Deep State Is A ‘Regime Change’.

WokeSpy, Speaker Mike Johnson: Elon Musk “Cracked the Code for “Defeating the Deep State.” Austin Bay at Insty, America’s Self-Inflicted Strategic Threat "Dig. "The political hacks opposing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) are laughable — until you realize these hysterics present a serious threat to U.S. national security. President Dwight Eisenhower’s no longer with us, but we have his National Security Council 162/2 report, dated Oct. 30, 1953. Once top secret, it’s now on the internet."Stephen Miller gets fed up with CNN's Brianna Keilar:

"The federal government will find every illegal alien who is stealing American taxpayer dollars, and that's what Americans expect to happen! I don't even fathom the premise of your question." pic.twitter.com/3bsrM8j2U3
Sundance, Congressman Tim Burchett Believes DOGE Money Trail Will Reveal “Foreign Aid Payments” Returning to Congress. Dave Strom at Hat Hair hears 'They Are Not Whacking Enough': I Meme Therefore I Am@ImMeme0, "“Cut. Cut. Cut.” Kevin O’Leary told a CNN panel that he supports DOGE’s efforts to eliminate waste in government and anticipates even deeper and more cuts ahead. “This is a concept in private equity: when you take over a bankrupt company, you go in, cut 20% more than your initial estimate, and then you find—like a pool of mercury—the organization gels back together again. Always cut deeper and harder when there’s fat and waste. All of these agencies are like big, fat chickens dripping over barbecues of fat. This is the best barbecue I’ve ever seen, but I don’t think it’s happening fast enough. They’re not cutting enough—keep slashing, keep packing while you have a 24-month mandate before the midterms!”"If this doesn't make your blood boil, nothing will.

When you use AI to replace every mention of "our democracy" with "our bureaucracy," everything starts making a lot more sense. pic.twitter.com/XZ65HXfN9H
