Supreme Court Decision on National Guard Deployment
A recent Supreme Court ruling (6–3 decision) denying Trump’s request to federalize Illinois National Guard troops to assist ICE agents in Chicago.
The legal reasoning: lack of statutory authority for the President to use military forces to enforce laws in Illinois.
Dissenting opinions by Justices Alito, Thomas, and Gorsuch, emphasizing concerns about protecting federal officers.


Criticism of Sanctuary Cities
Strongly argue against sanctuary city policies, labeling them as harmful to American citizens.
Trump’s intent to deploy the National Guard is a measure to protect lives, even in liberal areas.


Government Waste and Rand Paul’s Festivus Report
Highlights Senator Rand Paul’s annual report exposing wasteful federal spending, totaling over $1.6 trillion (including interest on debt).
Examples include:

$40 million for COVID-19 vaccine promotion after the pandemic ended.
$1.5 million for promoting U.S. media overseas.
$13.8 million for beagle experiments.
$14 million for monkey video game experiments.
$1 million for ferret binge-drinking studies.
$7.5 billion for EV infrastructure with only 68 charging stations built.
$22.6 billion on migrant benefits.
Critiques gain-of-function research and animal testing funded by NIH and other agencies.


Economic Performance and Trump’s Policies
Celebrates strong GDP growth (4.3% in Q3 2025) and improved consumer spending.
Tariffs, tax policies, and technology-driven productivity are getting stronger
There is steep contrast in Trump’s approach with Biden-era inflation and spending.
