🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ just eliminated a 44-year-old race-based hiring decree.

For four decades, this racist mandate rigged federal hiring against merit and in favor of race discrimination.

Today, it’s DEAD.

This is a turning point. Here’s what it means 🧵 Image
2/ In 1979, a lawsuit claimed that the federal hiring test—PACE—was racist.

So the Carter DOJ caved.

The U.S. government replaced merit-based exams with “Outstanding Scholar” and “Bilingual/Bicultural” racial preference hiring programs.

DEI's prototype was born. Image
3/ For 44 years, this decree forced a form of DEI into every federal department:

❌ Race-based preferences
❌ Discriminatory test reviews
❌ Massive compliance bureaucracy
❌ Handcuffed hiring managers

It distorted everything from OPM to NASA. Image
4/ Now it’s over.

DOJ just filed to end the Luevano decree, calling it:

“Flawed and outdated…
Draconian…
A barrier to hiring top talent.”

This is one of the biggest rollbacks of government racial bias in my lifetime. Image
5/ Assistant AG Harmeet Dhillon didn’t hold back:

“For over four decades, this decree has hampered the federal government from hiring the top talent of our nation.

"Today, the DOJ reopened federal employment opportunities based on merit—not race.”

🔥🔥🔥 Image
6/ And that’s not all. Just days ago, DOJ warned:

If you receive federal funds and run DEI programs, you’re breaking the law.

That means:

— Universities
— Schools
— Contractors
— Nonprofits

It's about time we enforced the Civil Rights Act! Image
7/ This isn’t just red tape reform.

It’s civil rights restoration.

DEI has turned the Civil Rights Act upside down—substituting quotas for character, and grievance for greatness.

That era is ending. Trump is pulling it out by the roots. Image
8/ Democrats claimed DEI was about “equity.”

But it was always about power:

☑️ Racial gatekeeping
☑️ Bureaucratic control
☑️ Ideological purity tests
☑️ Race-based (Democrat-only) House seats

Trump’s DOJ just restored the law and thereby flipped the table. Image

🚨BREAKING: Trump’s NASA just announced plans to build a nuclear power plant on the Moon.

Why?

Because we’re in a space race with Communist China—and this time, we’re not coming home.

We're going to the Moon.
We’re staying.

And we’re going to have to power it. 🧵 Image
2/ Here’s the big news:

✅ The U.S. will build a nuclear reactor on the Moon.
✅ Solar isn’t enough.
✅ We’re done studying. Trump said GO.
✅ China is racing to beat us.
✅ And America is preparing to plant the flag—for good. Image
3/ Trump’s lunar plans are back on track.

🚀 Artemis II: 4 astronauts orbit the Moon in 2026
🚀 Artemis III: 1st Moon landing since 1972
🛰️ Post-Artemis: (Probably) SpaceX Starship missions create a permanent, fast-growing colony

⚛️ But Step 1 is Nuclear power. Image

🚨 RUSSIA AND CHINA ARE ABOUT TO ANNEX… ANTARCTICA?! 🚨

They just (illegally) found half a trillion barrels of oil beneath the ice.

They're violating treaties.

And they're showing the world what's coming next—on the Moon.

You need to understand what's happening 🧵 Image
2/ In early 2025, Russia announced a MASSIVE oil discovery in Antarctica:

📍 511 BILLION barrels—more than any known oilfield on Earth.

There’s just one problem:

Exploring for oil there is ILLEGAL under the 1959 Antarctic Treaty.

Russia did it anyway. Image
3/ The Russians lied, of course.

They claimed it was “just scientific research.”

Same lie China tells about its “ocean surveys.”

But the truth is clear:

🚨 This is an open violation of international law
🚨 And a direct challenge to U.S. and Western power Image

🚨 DEMS ARE PANICKING 🚨

Why? Because Texas just nuked their racially gerrymandered districts—and Democrats have nowhere left to gerrymander.

They already rigged their maps years ago.

Now the GOP is fighting back.

Let’s talk about the states they want you to ignore. 🧵 Image
2/ 🔵 Blue states with ZERO Republican House seats:

– Massachusetts
– Rhode Island
– Vermont
– New Hampshire
– Hawaii
– New Mexico
– Connecticut
– Delaware

🔵 Blue states with just ONE GOP seat:

– Maryland
– Oregon
– Maine

This is what “Our Democracy” looks like to them? Image
3/ Now look at these “moderate” blue states:

– Colorado
– Minnesota
– Illinois
– Virginia
– New Jersey

Each has just 2–5 GOP House members—even when Republicans win 40–45% of the vote.

How? Gerrymandering. The kind the Enemedia says doesn’t exist...because it helps Democrats. Image

🧵Mexico’s Drug Cartels Bedevil Sheinbaum’s Dealmaking With Trump

The U.S. and Mexico aim to reach security agreement in coming days, Mexican president says. But domestic troubles are making that a lot harder.

That's part of why Trump extended her deadline.

Here's the scoop. Image
2/ A Chinese cartel boss escaped house arrest in Mexico—and the judge who let him go is under fire.

Trump is pressuring Mexico to act.

Tariffs are on the table.

And U.S. military options are back in play. Image
3/ His name is Zhi Dong Zhang.

He laundered $150 million for Mexican cartels and smuggled fentanyl ingredients, coke, meth—the works.

Mexico caught him.
Then a judge put him under house arrest.
In July, he escaped. Through a hole in the wall.

Yes, really. Image

🚨🚨🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ just launched a GRAND JURY investigation into the Russiagate hoax.🚨🚨🚨

You wanted arrests? This is how you get arrests.

Brennan. Clapper. Comey. Strzok. Page. Maybe even Clinton and Obama.

Here’s what just happened—and what it could mean 🧵 Image
2/ Attorney General Pam Bondi has officially greenlit criminal proceedings based on DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s referral.

She assigned a federal prosecutor to present evidence to a grand jury.

This isn’t talk. This is action precedent to indictments & arrests.

rodmartin.org/p/yes-there-wi…
3/ Gabbard’s referral is explosive.

She declassified evidence showing Obama officials suppressed intelligence proving there was no Russian cyber-attack on election infrastructure in 2016.

They knew it.
They hid it.
They lied about it.

🚨 BREAKING: While the world watches Ukraine and Taiwan, a new great power is quietly rising—and few are ready for what comes next.

Turkey is on the move. And thanks to war, the weakness of its neighbors, and a once-in-a-century opportunity…

This is Turkey’s moment. 🧵 Image
2/ In The Next 100 Years, the great @George_Friedman predicted the surprise rise of 3 powers:

🇯🇵 Japan
🇵🇱 Poland
🇹🇷 Turkey

All three are surging.

But only one sits at the crossroads of Europe, the Middle East, & the Mediterranean—ready to fill the void as old powers fall.Image
@George_Friedman 3/ The vacuum is vast. Turkey is filling it.

• Russia is bleeding in Ukraine.
• Iran is reeling.
• Syria's civil war has (mostly) ended with the victory of a Turkish proxy
• Iraq is disoriented.
• Israel is busy.
• Europe is focused elsewhere.
