WHOA: President Trump Delivers Explosive Response Regarding the Suspicious Drones Across America – “Mystery Drone Sightings All Over the Country…Shoot Them Down!!!”

President-elect Donald J. Trump has weighed in for the first time regarding the drones invading America and our military bases.

Trump called BS on the Biden regime’s claims that they have no knowledge of who is responsible for the drones and demanded the Regime tell the truth immediately.

He then called for the drones to be shot down if the government was unwilling to provide answers (they won’t).

Biden Selling Border Wall ‘Junk,’ ‘Scraps’ to Appease Open Border Leftists on Way Out, Says Texas:

After the discovery of the Biden administration starting to sell off what appear to be sections of unused border wall materials, Texas looked into buying the sections to donate to the incoming Trump administration. Texas officials determined the materials were mostly junk, Lt. Governor Dan Patrick reported.

Earlier this week, Daily Wire reporter James Lalino revealed the Biden administration was quietly moving materials away from the border region to a government surplus auction site.

The following day, Lieutenant Governor Patrick went on Fox News and said Texas should buy the materials and donate them to the incoming Trump administration, Breitbart News reported.

“Message to the White House right now, I will bid on all of that wall and we will buy it in Texas and we will give it to Donald Trump,” Patrick told Laura Ingraham.

“The Texas Facilities Commission told us today that the material for sale was mostly junk, with most panels covered in concrete and rust,” the lieutenant governor wrote. “There were a few panels that might be usable but not worth the cost of shipping to Texas from Arizona.”

“In short,” Patrick concluded, “this was a Biden ruse to gain favor with the radical left open border crowd, showing Biden was fighting President Trump to the bitter end. Rest assured, if they sell any panels that make economic sense, we will buy them and give them to President Trump when he takes office.”

In March 2022, Governor Abbott purchased border wall materials being sold by the Biden administration to build more barriers in Texas, Breitbart Texas reported.  “In addition, a lot of people saw on TV a lot of these border wall components like this that were just laying on the ground, that taxpayers had paid for,” Abbott said in an exclusive interview in Eagle Pass, Texas. “Biden chose not to build the wall.”

“We found a way, by going through the surplus program of the federal government where Texas would be able to obtain these border wall panels and we obtained as much as we could, until Biden found out about it,” Abbott explained. “He put a stop to Texas being able to get it. There may be some other ways that we will be able to get more.”

Jimmy Carter, Age 100, Will Skip President Trump’s Second Inaugural Next Month:

Jimmy Carter will not be attending President Trump’s second Inauguration in January.

Former President Jimmy Carter was wheeled outside to watch a military flyover in his backyard in Plains, Georgia to celebrate his 100th birthday in October.

Jimmy Carter’s son, Jason claimed the former president is limited in what he can do but keeps up with the news.

“He’s very limited in what he can do,” Jason told CBS. “He can’t talk on the phone.”

Carter’s son told The Washington Post that he doesn’t care about his birthday and that he just wants to stay alive so he can vote for Kamala Harris.

Well, that didn’t work out so well.

Jimmy will not make it to Trump’s Inauguration next month in Washington DC.

BREAKING: Senate Democrats Introduce Bill to Abolish Electoral College:

A group of Senate Democrats introduced a bill to abolish the Electoral College.

Democrats hate middle America– they want the coastal elites to choose the president of the United States.

Ever since Trump won the election against Hillary Clinton in an electoral landslide, the Democrats have been vowing to end the electoral college.

DOGE Heads Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy Highlight 1,547 pages in Continuing Resolution, Which Gives 40% Pay Increase to Congressmen – Musk Says “This Bill Should Not Pass”

Vivek Ramaswamy said on X, “Currently reading the 1,547-page bill to fund the government through mid-March. Expecting every U.S. Congressman & Senator to do the same.”

Members of Congress aren’t even going to have time to read the bill before voting on it.

DOGE Co-head Elon Musk reposted Ramaswamy’s post, adding, “This bill should not pass.“  Musk further pointed out that the continuing resolution includes a 40% pay increase to nearly a quarter million dollars per year for members of Congress.

Many conservative House members are furious that Speaker Mike Johnson has caved once again and agreed to increase the national deficit.

Rep. Nancy Mace slammed her colleagues in an X post, saying, “We do this every year … the manufactured ‘government shutdown’ crisis so everyone can get everything into an omnibus or continuing resolution and taking us further into debt.”

Elon Musk Cheers Victory as Speaker Johnson’s Spending Bill Stalls After Trump and Musk Threatened to Primary Anyone Who Would Vote for It:

The House of Representatives did not proceed with a planned vote on Speaker Mike Johnson’s controversial spending bill after intense pushback from President Donald Trump, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, and other Republican lawmakers.

The resolution, which many conservatives decried as riddled with liberal concessions, failed to move forward after Musk and Trump issued dire warnings to any Republican considering supporting the measure.

The Continuing Resolution (CR), ostensibly aimed at averting a government shutdown, faced fierce criticism for its inclusion of far-left wish-list items and policy overreach.

Report: Aides Successfully Covered Up a ‘Diminished’ Joe Biden Until Exposed in July’s Debate:

President Joe Biden’s aides successfully covered up his health until he stepped into the spotlight for July’s debate, according to Wall Street Journal interviews with nearly 50 people, including many who had direct knowledge of the operation.

White House aides, moreover, still appear to be engaged in covering up the scandal by denying key aspects of the Journal’s report, such as the degree to which Biden was insulated from everyone in the world except a few top senior aides and his family.

Aides took the following actions:

• Adjusted the presidential schedule, starting at the beginning of his term, due to “Biden’s advanced age”
• Limited Biden’s schedule because he “became tired if meetings went long” causing him to “make mistakes”
• Told “visitors to keep meetings focused,” including meetings with senior Democrat lawmakers and some cabinet members
• Excluded negative stories about the president in his daily news clips, including negative polling about his 2024 campaign
• Implemented greater than normal “controls” over who Biden “spoke with,” what they “said to him”
• Limited “the sources of information he consumed”
• Gave Biden great assistance at public events, which was characterized as “hand holding” unlike “other recent presidents have had”
• Allowed Biden to start his day later in the morning, “since Biden has never been at his best first thing”
• Caused “[a]t least one cabinet member stopped requesting calls with the president, because it was clear that such requests wouldn’t be welcome”
• Dictated agency “decisions and expect cabinet agencies to carry them out”
• Fielded concerns from cabinet members, who were mostly not allowed to take their concerns directly to the president
• Tried to protect the president, who “couldn’t recall lines that his team had previously discussed with him” during meetings
• Prevented the press, donors, and stakeholders in Biden’s campaign from direct contact with the president
• Often repeated “basic instructions to him, such as where to enter or exit a stage”
•  Looked for a “voice coach to improve the president’s fading warble”

But this summer, Democratic insiders became alarmed by the way Biden described his own polling, publicly characterizing the race as a tossup when polls released in the weeks after the disastrous June debate consistently showed Trump ahead. They worried he wasn’t getting an unvarnished look at his standing in the race.

Those fears intensified on July 11, when Biden’s top advisers met behind closed doors with Democratic senators, where the advisers laid out a road map for Biden’s victory. The message from the advisers was so disconnected from public polling—which showed Trump leading Biden nationally—that it left Democratic senators incredulous. It spurred Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) to speak to Biden directly, according to people familiar with the matter, hoping to pierce what the senators saw as a wall erected by Donilon to shield Biden from bad information. Donilon didn’t respond to requests for comment.

Bombshell Report: Joe Biden Was Too Mentally Fatigued to Take Phone Calls From House Armed Services Committee Chair Before Afghanistan Withdrawal:

The Wall Street Journal on Thursday casually dropped a bombshell story on Joe Biden’s mental decline and how his aides tried to hide his dementia from the public.

The Gateway Pundit spent the last 5 years documenting Joe Biden’s declining mental faculties – it was obvious to anyone paying the slightest bit of attention.

But The Wall Street Journal finally admitted what every American knew all along: Biden was declining and the White House – with help from the fake news media – covered it all up.
