What has Trump even done since he got into office? My favorite question.

THREAD: Trump’s First 10 Months - The Complete Promise Tracker 🧵
(1/30)

President Donald Trump’s second term has been nothing short of historic.

In just 10 months (January 20 - November 17, 2025), he’s issued 213 executive orders, 54 presidential memoranda, and 107 proclamations—far outpacing his first term.

Official White House tallies and independent trackers like PolitiFact’s MAGA-Meter rate over 70% of his major 2024 campaign promises as “kept” or “in progress.”

His “Agenda 47” platform outlined over 20 core promises with dozens of specific policy pledges focused on securing borders, economic revival, energy dominance, and restoring American strength.
This thread breaks down every major fulfilled promise by category, with specific actions, outcomes, and verified results.
(2/30) BORDER SECURITY - DAY ONE ACTION

Trump’s first promise: “Seal the border and stop the migrant invasion on Day One.”

DELIVERED: Executive Order 14001 (January 20, 2025) declared a national border emergency, suspended asylum claims at the southern border, and deployed 10,000 National Guard troops immediately.

RESULT: Within weeks, illegal border crossings dropped 98%, hitting historic lows with under 1,000 monthly apprehensions by June 2025.

This represents the lowest level of illegal immigration in decades and validates Trump’s “secure the border first” approach that critics said was impossible.
(3/30) BORDER WALL CONSTRUCTION

Promise: “Resume and complete the border wall in high-traffic areas.”

DELIVERED: Executive Order 14005 restarted construction projects in El Paso, Rio Grande Valley, and other critical sectors. Trump reallocated $5 billion from military construction funds (same authority used in first term, now upheld by courts).

RESULT: 150+ miles completed or actively underway by November 2025. Construction crews are working 24/7 shifts in Texas and Arizona. The wall segments include advanced technology integration—sensors, cameras, and rapid-response vehicle barriers that have proven effective in stopping cartel smuggling routes.

Before anybody gets triggered, let me make something perfectly clear:

Yes — I am a Christian.
Yes — I am an evangelical.
Yes — I am proudly pro-Israel.
Yes — I am the Zionist your group chats shake about.

And because of that, I already know exactly what’s coming.

The minute this thread goes up, the same people who accuse everyone else of being “NPCs,” “Zionist ops,” “globalist plants,” and “controlled opposition” are going to melt down like I’ve committed heresy.

Why?

Because I am about to give them a taste of their own medicine, the part they cannot handle:

Actual facts.
Actual receipts.
Actual history.

See, they love to weaponize lies against evangelicals.

They love to smear pastors, accuse widows, invent “ops,” and throw around words like “trafficking” with zero evidence.

But the second you turn the mirror around?

The second you apply their tactics back on them using true, documented cases?

Suddenly I’m the problem.
Suddenly I’m “hysterical.”
Suddenly I’m “obsessed.”

No, what’s actually happening is that the mask slips.

The response to this thread will prove, once and for all, that the loudest “truth-tellers” in “our”movement are the ones borrowing the exact same psychological warfare tactics the left uses:

– moral projection
– selective outrage
– emotional manipulation
– conspiratorial framing
– weaponized slander
– smearing entire churches
– exploiting tragedy for clicks
– accusing anyone who disagrees of being an “op”

And when their own rules are applied to them?

When you simply mirror their rhetoric with actual facts?

They will viciously attack me for it.

That’s fine.

I will be fake doxxed, called a criminal, they will post random peoples criminal histories, a Mossad agent, an Israeli bot, an account run by 246 people, part of the IDF, not really a stay at home mom, a grifter, and I can’t think of any other ones yet but the they will think of more ways to viciously attack me.

Because if you can’t respond to the message, the only thing you can do is attack the messenger and so I am OK with it. I will be the sacrificial lamb. I will be the one getting death threats. Its ok. I know how they operate now and I’ll take one for team America.

God calls us to bear witness not to be silent while wolves pretend to be sheep.

So if this thread makes you uncomfortable, good.

Sometimes the only way to expose what people are really doing is hold up a giant mirror and let bystanders watch what happens.

Now let’s begin.
A certain self-anointed podcaster/arbiter of truth and justice is screaming that “MAGA churches” are Zionist ops, Calvary Chapel is a Hollywood trafficking ring, pastors are “secret Jews,” and Charlie Kirk was murdered to silence his “awakening.”

Okay.
If we’re “just asking questions”…
If we’re “following the pattern”…
Let’s actually do it.

Let’s ask some questions. I can’t possibly imagine how anybody could have a problem with documented court cases being listed, and very reasonable questions being asked I mean, unless of course, there are hypocrites who are just projecting and grifting right?
I’m wondering, when this self- anointed arbiter of truth who sees very clearly the dangers of the evangelical movement and how they are now responsible for the global child trafficking happening around the world could possibly be silent on what’s going on in her own backyard?

🧵🧵In the 1930s, Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist regime launched one of history’s most audacious religious experiments: to tear Christianity away from its Jewish foundation. The project, called Positive Christianity, aimed to purge every trace of Judaism from German religious life — to create a Christianity without the Old Testament, without Israel, without the Jewish Christ.

It was, in effect, an attempt to rewrite the Bible and redefine faith itself.
From the earliest days of the Nazi Party, Hitler used the language of faith to win the confidence of Christian voters. The 1920 Party Programme declared that Nazism stood for “Positive Christianity” — a deliberately vague term that sounded pious while freeing the party from any specific doctrine.

“Positive Christianity” was never about theology; it was about control. It promised freedom for churches only if they aligned with “the moral feelings of the German race.” In practice, that meant silencing pastors, rewriting Scripture, and bending the pulpit to serve the Reich.
Once in power, Nazi ideologues and sympathetic theologians began to remove the Jewish heart of Christianity. Their argument was simple and sinister: the Old Testament was a “Jewish book,” and the New Testament must be cleansed of its “Semitic spirit.”

In 1939, Protestant leaders created the Institute for the Study and Eradication of Jewish Influence on German Church Life, known as the Dejudaization Institute. Its mission statement was chillingly clear — to “liberate” Christianity from “Jewish intellectualism.”

Bibles were rewritten.

•References to the Old Testament were deleted or reworded.

•The genealogy of Jesus was stripped of Jewish names.

•Hebrew psalms were replaced with nationalistic hymns.

•Sermons spoke not of Israel’s God, but of “Providence” and “the Eternal Creator” — vague deities safely compatible with Nazi race ideology.

Even the Lord’s Prayer was rewritten to remove “Jewish” imagery. Jesus was reimagined as an Aryan hero, not a Jew from Bethlehem. The Ten Commandments were replaced with new “Germanic commandments” extolling blood, honor, and loyalty to the Führer.

🧵🧵In August, a story broke that should have been everywhere. It wasn’t.

It barely made a sound.

The Washington Free Beacon reported that some of America’s biggest companies, including Amazon, Pfizer, and Walmart, were quietly funding a nonprofit that flies state attorneys general around the world for so-called “rule of law” trips. One of those destinations was Qatar. Yes, that Qatar, the one constantly criticized for human rights abuses and shady lobbying in Washington.

If you missed it, you are not alone. Almost nobody covered it. Which is unbelievable, because this is one of the most serious examples of quiet corruption we have seen in years.
What Is Actually Happening

There is a group called the Attorney General Alliance, or AGA. On paper, it is a bipartisan nonprofit that helps state attorneys general share ideas and work with international partners. In reality, it looks more like a private club for people in power and the corporations that want to stay close to them.

Here is how it works. Big companies donate large sums of money to AGA. The group uses that money to host conferences and international trips for attorneys general and their staff. One recent trip took them to Doha, Qatar, where they stayed in luxury hotels, met with Qatari officials, and discussed issues like human trafficking and global justice.

It all sounds professional and educational until you realize that many of these same companies are under investigation by those very same AGs for things like antitrust violations, data privacy issues, and drug pricing scandals.

It is not technically illegal. But it looks a lot like influence.
Why Qatar Is Involved

Qatar has a clear reason for doing this. The country has spent hundreds of millions of dollars trying to clean up its image in the United States. Hosting powerful American officials makes it look like a legitimate partner in global law and governance.

It also gives Qatar direct access to people who might one day hold higher office. Many state attorneys general go on to become governors, senators, or cabinet members. Building those relationships now is a smart long-term move.

This is not a conspiracy theory. A former U.S. ambassador actually pleaded guilty to secretly working for Qatar. A retired four-star general was investigated for similar behavior. This pattern has been going on for years.

Everyone thinks Trump’s new aggression toward Venezuela is about drugs, migration, or Maduro.

It’s not.

It’s about China — and who controls the Western Hemisphere. 🧵👇
Over the last two decades, China has poured more than $130 billion into Latin America, mostly into energy-rich nations like Venezuela, Brazil, and Ecuador.

Those weren’t loans in the traditional sense.

They were strategic footholds collateralized by oil, copper, lithium, and political loyalty.

Each “loan” was really an exchange: resources for influence.

Debt became diplomacy.
Interest became control.
Venezuela alone borrowed over $60 billion from Chinese state banks, the largest sum ever lent to a country in the Western Hemisphere.

When sanctions collapsed its economy, Beijing didn’t walk away.

It tightened its grip, converting debt into oil-for-loans deals that kept tankers flowing east.

Every barrel repaid interest, but it also cemented dependency.
While Western firms left, Chinese companies moved in building refineries, power grids, and surveillance systems.

By the late 2010s, Venezuela wasn’t just indebted.
It was anchored.

Beijing had turned a failed state into a permanent energy colony.

🧵🧵Thread: The Danger of the Sarsour-Wahhaj-Mamdani Machine

1. Imam Siraj Wahhaj’s History and Extremist Connections

Imam Siraj Wahhaj was named an unindicted co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing after serving as a character witness for Omar Abdel-Rahman (the “Blind Sheikh”), mastermind of the attack and leader of the Egyptian terrorist group Gama’a al-Islamiyya.

Wahhaj did not face charges, but federal prosecutors and retired FBI agents cite his history of defending terror plotters, fundraising for convicted jihadists, and hosting “radical preachers and gun-training circles” at his Brooklyn mosque, Masjid At-Taqwa.

Wahhaj’s platform has included explicit calls for an Islamic state in America, refusal to condemn violence by Islamist regimes, and statements highlighted by critics and some reformist Muslim leaders as fundamentally incompatible with pluralist democracy.
2. Linda Sarsour’s Strategic Elevation of Wahhaj

Linda Sarsour has openly called Wahhaj her “mentor” and brought him onto organizing stages at high-profile conferences, including her own Women’s March-related events and major Muslim-American activist rallies.

This partnership is strategic: Sarsour uses Wahhaj’s respected name within some Muslim communities to mobilize and build coalition power, especially in districts with large immigrant or Muslim populations.

Wahhaj’s endorsement and participation open doors for candidates and activist campaigns, often boosting turnout and fundraising.

Through vehicles like the Muslim Democratic Club of NY (MDCNY), the Working Families Party, and MPower Change, Sarsour channels his network’s resources, endorsements, and organizational know-how to support preferred candidates including Zohran Mamdani and allies aligned on issues of policing, Palestine, and multicultural equity.

These efforts have tangible results. MDCNY, for example, explicitly works to increase Muslim-American voter turnout and shape candidate pipelines, with Wahhaj and Sarsour regularly referenced together in its promotional materials and at events.

MPower Change, Sarsour’s digital advocacy group, frequently invites Wahhaj to its webinars, using his influence to activate fundraising and lobbying initiatives.

The Working Families Party, New York’s most prominent left-wing independent power broker, has formed alliances with MDCNY and MPower Change to endorse candidates jointly, effectively mainstreaming Wahhaj’s ideological agenda within Democratic local primaries.

Within these circles, Wahhaj’s history, controversial to many outside observers, does not act as a barrier but as a badge of honor, allowing his ideas about social justice, Islamic law, and advocacy against “imperialist” U.S. policy to circulate among ambitious activists and policy staffers.

Sarsour’s approach, which frames Wahhaj’s legacy as “social justice leadership,” ensures that his platform and connections penetrate multiple verticals of New York’s Democratic political climate and influence candidate selection, messaging, and organizational partnerships well beyond the Muslim community.

3. Organizational Ties and Donor Networks

The Sarsour-Wahhaj alliance has cultivated influential fundraising and organizing power.

MDCNY’s board and campaign infrastructure are stacked with activists who’ve served in groups such as CAIR and ICNA both named in congressional and DOJ probes for their alleged support of Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Financial disclosure records and watchdog analysis show Mamdani’s races have received significant direct and indirect support from these networks (over $100,000 by some estimates).
