🧵BREAKING: Why Trump's latest move against the Deep State is more revolutionary than you think.

A thread on how revoking 51 security clearances could change everything...

1/15 Image
🔥 Last night's bombshell: Trump plans to strip security clearances from 51 former intelligence officials who called Hunter's laptop "Russian disinfo" before 2020 election.

In DC, this isn't just news. It's an earthquake.

2/15

Let me tell you why this matters SO MUCH. These aren't just random bureaucrats - they're the REAL power players in DC who never truly "retire."

They keep their clearances. They go on CNN. They shape narratives.

3/15 Image
THINK ABOUT IT: These 51 officials KNEW the laptop was real. The FBI had it since 2019. Yet they used their authority to lie to Americans.

Post-election polls show this swayed up to 17% of Democrat voters!

4/15 Image
🚨 This is the Deep State's playbook:

- Claim special knowledge
- Push false narratives
- Interfere in elections
- Blackmail and jail opponents
- Face zero consequences

Until now.

5/15 Image
The truth? These "retired" officials never stopped wielding power. They're part of a shadow government that's been running things while Biden can barely remember his own name.

6/15 Image
🔑 Key point: This isn't just about clearances. It's about BREAKING the permanent power structure that's been controlling our country from behind the scenes.

7/15 Image
Remember: These are the same people who:

- Pushed the Russia hoax
- Censored real news
- Manipulated elections
- Defrauded the voters
- Protected their own

8/15 Image
The REAL revolution isn't just about elections - it's about dismantling this unelected power structure that thinks it can override the will of American voters.

9/15 Image
Why haven't previous presidents done this? Simple: FEAR. These people know everyone's secrets. They're the ultimate DC protection racket.

10/15 Image
But Trump's doing it anyway. That's why this is different.

That's why this matters. This isn't just politics. This is war against the Deep State.

11/15 Image
The stakes? Everything.

- Our democracy
- Rule of law
- Future elections
- Whether we have a government that imprisons opposition leaders
- American liberty itself

12/15 Image
🎯 Make no mistake: This is a direct shot at the heart of the administrative state. It's telling the "permanent government" they're not so permanent after all.

13/15 Image
Critics will say this is dangerous. They're right - but not for the reasons they think. It's dangerous to THEM and their power structure.

14/15 Image
The bottom line: this is how you Drain The Swamp. Not with slogans, but action.

This is just the beginning... 🇺🇸

Five myths about America’s Founding Fathers.

Much of what we’re taught about the men who created the Declaration, the Revolution, and the Constitution is simply wrong.

Here are the biggest ones. 🧵 Image
2/ Myth 1: They wanted a secular nation.

The founders saw religion and morality as essential supports for liberty.

Jefferson asked if liberties could be secure without “a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God.”

Washington and Hamilton agreed: religion and morality are indispensable.

They demanded tolerance, not secularism.Image
3/ Myth 2: They unanimously supported the Revolutionary War.

Even on July 1, 1776, John Dickinson argued against independence, hoping for reconciliation.

New York’s delegation abstained. Only 45% of colonists actively supported the war.

Deep divisions existed even among the patriots.Image

🧵Are you tired of winning yet?

Trump just scored huge victories: the biggest trade deal in history with the EU, a Lebanon-Israel peace deal, and more.

The world is being reordered in America’s favor — and it’s only getting better.

🧵 Image
2/ Just 11 months ago, Trump signed the largest trade deal ever with the EU.

This week, the EU ratified it. For the first time in history Europe charges us ZERO. And we charge them 15%!

Europe buying $600 billion in new U.S. manufacturing investment and $750 billion in American energy over three years.

The establishment on both sides of the Atlantic said it would never happen, that the whole world would isolate and gang up on America.

Kind of like they told you Hillary would win by 12 points.Image
3/ At the same time, Marco Rubio negotiated peace between Israel and Lebanon.

Iran gets booted out. Hezbollah gets removed. Lebanon takes full control of its territory for the first time in 51 years.

Mutual recognition of sovereignty. Which is a bigger deal than it sounds, because Lebanon declared war on Israel in 1948 and has legally been at war against them ever since!

This could mean full diplomatic relations and Lebanon joining the Abraham Accords.

🧵Nationalism is not empire. It’s the opposite.

Nationalism is the right of peoples to rule themselves. Empire is one nation ruling others.

The people who demonize “nationalism” don’t hate bad nations. They want to replace nation-states with a new global empire of unelected elites.

Don't fall for it. 🧵Image
2/ The American Revolution was nationalist — rejecting rule by distant strangers.

So were the Latin American revolutions against Spain. And decolonization around the world.

America has always defended national self-determination through the Monroe Doctrine and beyond. Image
Image
3/ You either believe in the Westphalian nation-state system — self-determination — or you don’t.

Reject it, and you’re left with empire, whether ruled from Brussels, Beijing, or Berlin.

There is no third option. Image

🧵Treasury @SecScottBessent just laid out Trump’s vision for 21st-century American economic statecraft.

It remakes the global order of the last 80 years.

It’s a masterclass in disciplined power: using America’s economic strength to serve our sovereignty — not globalist elites. 🧵
@SecScottBessent 2/ For decades, we assumed openness had no downside.

We tolerated massive imbalances, supply chain dependence on adversaries, and unfair practices — all while believing integration would magically align interests.

Those assumptions failed. Bessent is correcting them. Image
3/ Bessent’s five core principles:

1. Economic security begins with national capacity — building what we need at home in semiconductors, AI, shipbuilding, critical minerals, and more.

2. Openness must be matched by reciprocity — no more one-way access to our markets.

3. America must write the rules of the next economy — standards for digital assets, AI, and emerging tech.Image

🧵The world is significantly greener than it was 40 years ago — thanks to rising CO2.

Satellite data shows almost all ecosystems have grown greener by about 15% in 33 years. Crop yields are up. Reforestation is accelerating. Even marine ecosystems are benefiting.

So why isn’t the “green” movement celebrating? 🧵Image
2/ This greening effect is massive — equivalent to adding an area of green vegetation about twice the size of the mainland U.S.

CO2 is plant food. With more CO2, plants grow faster, use water more efficiently, and thrive even in arid areas.

Commercial greenhouses pump in extra CO2 for this exact reason.Image
3/ Yet official “social cost of carbon” calculations outright ignore this benefit.

When properly included, the net effect of extra CO2 on crop yields flips from negative to significantly positive.

Higher yields mean less hunger, lower food prices, and less land needed for farming.Image

🧵Schedule F is back.

Trump is resurrecting the most important executive reform of his first term — and it’s aimed directly at the Deep State.

If the President can't fire policy makers, why'd we have an election at all?

This is about restoring power to the voters by restoring Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution.

🧵Image
2/ Schedule F creates a new category for policy-making and policy-implementing federal employees.

These positions will no longer have near-ironclad permanent employment.

The President, as head of the executive branch, can once again hire, manage, and remove people who "resist" the agenda voters chose...or who are just bad at their jobs!Image
3/ The Founders vested all executive power in the President. They never intended an unaccountable fourth branch of government.

The modern administrative state — insulated bureaucrats who view elected leaders as temporary — is a 20th-century invention that inverted constitutional order.

Schedule F begins to claw it back.Image
