Trump, alongside Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen.

The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) has reportedly detected an “unidentified high-altitude, hypersonic contact” approaching U.S. Airspace from the direction of the Northern Atlantic, with F-22 Raptors being scrambled from Langley Air Force Base in Virginia. Local sources on the ground in the Northeastern United States and across the border in Canada are reporting a bright red light in the sky and a loud ringing, almost like the sound of bells, coming from the direction of the North Atlantic.

Footage posted earlier by the Israel Defense Force, showing preparations for as well as the actual airdrop of humanitarian aid, including food and other supplies, today into the Gaza Strip via a C-130J “Super Hercules” with the Israeli Air Force.

If you actually think anything said tonight about Gaza is practical or a good idea, you are totally and utterly braindead. It is crazy to see how many people will switch from “Withdraw all our Troops from the Middle East and end the Forever Wars” to “Yeah let’s go pay Trillions and sacrifice Thousands of Servicemembers in order to control and occupy the Gaza Strip, something which will easily take 10-15 Years.” This has been a clear issue recently with us on the right and those on the left, of people just agreeing with every single thing that is said by a certain politician or group. Learn how to have your own opinions and beliefs, stand by those beliefs. If Trump says something that you as a conservative doesn’t believe in, or if a Democratic politician says something that you as a liberal don’t believe in, it is your responsibility as a voter and as an American to call that out, not just agree with it because you are on that side.

List of notable planned initiatives, frameworks, and programs highlighted by U.S. President Donald J. Trump during his Inauguration Speech. (Thread)
 
Immigration/Southern Border:
President Trump has said that he will declare a national emergency at the southern border and reinstate the “Remain in Mexico” and “Catch and Release” policies. Another planned action, first mentioned by the president on the campaign trail last year, was his plan to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of the wider Alien and Sedition Acts of 1798 to use state and federal law enforcement to target and eliminate foreign gangs across the U.S., halt all illegal entry into the United States, and return criminal aliens back to their home countries. President Trump has also pledged to send troops to stabilize and stop the flow of illegal immigrants and drugs across the border and confirms his commitment to designate the cartels as foreign terrorist organizations.
1/5 Economic Outlook in U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s Inauguration Speech:
President Trump has pledged to direct members of his cabinet to combat record inflation and bring down costs. He plans to declare a “national energy emergency” and “Drill Baby Drill” to tap into the vast amount of oil and gas at the U.S.’s disposal. The president also pledged to end the “Green New Deal,” revoke the Electric Vehicle Mandate, and boost automobile production. Additionally, President Trump plans to overhaul U.S. foreign trade frameworks and government accountability standards by establishing the External Revenue Service and creating the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Hamas Supporters staged a Protest and/or Riot today at the Port of Oakland in California preventing the MV Cape Orlando a Roll-On/Roll-Off Ship with the U.S. National Defense Reserve Fleet from Departing, by Breaching the Gates of the Port and attempting to Climb the Ladder onto the Ship while also Blocking the Entrance to Berth 20 where the Ship was Moored; the Individuals stated they had learned from “Workers” that the Ship was heading to Tacoma, Washington to pick-up Military Aid for Israel and that they were going to prevent that.

But finally after nearly 6 Hours of Delays the NV Cape Orlando has Departed from the Port of Oakland, after the Individuals were Removed from the Ship and Arrested by the U.S. Coast Guard and other Federal Agencies.
Whoever the Worker was that told the Group about the Schedule of the Ship and its Cargo I guarantee you is about to have a Knock on their Door from a Three-Letter Agency in the near Future.

U.S. Intelligence Officials told CNN today that they currently believe Iran and Iranian-Backed Groups like Hezbollah are “Holding-Back” their Attacks against the United States and Israel in order to avoid a Major Regional War, which Iran knows would cause Devastation to its Military and Infrastructure.
