WATCH: Trump Slams “Paper Tiger” NATO for Refusing to Help Secure the Strait of Hormuz, Says “We Don’t Need Them” and He’ll “Never Forget”

President Trump went off on NATO during a Cabinet Meeting on Wednesday went off on NATO again for their refusal to provide support to reopen the Strait of Hormuz as Iran blocks the flow of oil and shipping in the waterway. 

President Trump has asked NATO and Asia for help securing the Strait, but they refused. The countries quickly rebuffed his demands and instead called for and instead urged the United States to end the war.

Last week, the President responded to NATO’s refusal, telling reporters, We don’t need help.”

“This was a great test because we don’t need them, but they should have been there,” he said, noting that “we as the United States have to remember that, because we think it’s pretty shocking,” he said.

America has a spending problem Congress refuses to fix (opinion: ):

Lawmakers will not curb federal spending on their own. A constitutional amendment would force their hand.

Washington Democrats just voted against the one rule every American family already lives by: balancing the budget. Last week, I brought my Balanced Budget Amendment to the House floor. It failed. Meanwhile the national debt has reached $39 trillion and counting.

My amendment would have required Washington to phase in a simple rule: Congress cannot spend more than it takes in.

Democrats would rather keep the autopilot running and the national credit card maxed out than make the tough decisions to bring spending in line with what Americans want and need.

Democrats once claimed to support that principle. Last week, only one voted yes. Let that sink in.

Opposing a balanced budget is not some noble policy disagreement. It is a refusal to confront a crisis. Interest on the national debt already costs more than national defense. By midcentury, interest payments are projected to double our defense spending.

Revenues are not the problem. Overspending is. American families already understand the difference. They pay the mortgage and buy groceries first. They skip the extras. They live on what they earn.

Report: Pentagon Preps Massive ‘Final Blow’ vs Iran — Seizing Strategic Islands as U.S. Weighs Sending 10K Combat Troops:

President Donald Trump’s Pentagon is developing military options for what officials describe as a potentially “massive” final blow against Iran — including seizing strategic islands in the Strait of Hormuz, blockading Iranian oil exports, and securing Tehran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium — as the administration weighs sending 10,000 additional combat troops to the Middle East if diplomacy collapses and the vital waterway remains restricted.

The outlet reported that several core options are under discussion, including seizing or blockading Kharg Island, Iran’s primary oil export hub; targeting Larak Island, which plays a central role in monitoring and threatening maritime traffic through the strait; and seizing Abu Musa along with the Greater and Lesser Tunb islands — Iranian-held outposts near the western entrance to the waterway equipped with missile, drone, and mine-laying capabilities.

The planning comes as the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday the Pentagon is weighing sending up to 10,000 additional combat ground troops to the Middle East — including infantry and armored units — adding to forces already deploying to the region, including Marine expeditionary units and elements of the 82nd Airborne Division.

For now, Trump is seeking to preserve room for negotiations. But as talks remain uncertain, the Strait of Hormuz remains under pressure, Kharg Island has been reinforced, Iranian hardliners are speaking more openly about a nuclear path, and the Pentagon is preparing a range of military options should diplomacy fail.

Supreme Court Set to Hear Landmark Case That Could End Birthright Citizenship Loophole and Cripple Anchor Baby Industry:

The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear oral arguments next week in a constitutional showdown over President Donald Trump’s executive order that would end automatic birthright citizenship for children born in the United States to illegal aliens or parents on temporary visas.

The case, Trump v. Barbara, stems directly from Executive Order 14160, titled “Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship,” which Trump signed on his first day back in office.

The order directs all federal agencies, including the State Department, Department of Homeland Security, and Social Security Administration, to stop issuing citizenship documents, such as passports and Social Security numbers, to any child born on American soil unless at least one parent is a U.S. citizen or a green card holder.

Children born to parents who are here illegally, on temporary visas (such as student, work, or tourist visas), or otherwise not subject to full U.S. jurisdiction would no longer qualify for automatic citizenship under the 14th Amendment’s Citizenship Clause.

President Trump has repeatedly pointed out the national security and economic threats posed by the current system, pointing to “birth tourism” operations run out of China and other countries where pregnant women fly to the U.S. specifically to give birth and secure citizenship for their children.

The order explicitly interprets the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” to exclude those whose parents owe primary allegiance to a foreign country.
The executive order cites the original intent of the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868 after the Civil War to grant citizenship to freed slaves. Trump’s legal team argues the amendment was never meant to apply to children of foreign nationals who entered illegally or temporarily and remain subject to the jurisdiction of their home countries.

Investigation Finds ‘No Kings’ Protests Backed by Network of Hundreds of Groups With Estimated Annual Revenue of $3 Billion:

The pointless ‘No Kings’ folks were back out in force this weekend, up to all of their usual antics.

Like many people, you may be wondering who is behind all of this, specifically, who is funding it? Well, it turns out there is an entire network of groups and they have a lot of cash to work with.

According to a recent investigation, there are approximately 500 different groups involved in this and they have an annual revenue stream of approximately $3 billion.

In other words, it’s not just George Soros. It’s a lot of different people and groups. The only thing that is not surprising here, is that these groups are all linked to Marxism and bringing about revolution.

The most frustrating thing about these protests is the way the media covers them as if they are the voice of the people, not the millions of Americans who voted for Trump, handed him every swing state, and sent him back to the White House for a second time.

That was the real revolution, not a bunch of boomers with purple hair.
