A new era for America is upon us.

Productive use of time, straight talk to the American people, push back on failed Democrat policies, and fixing large problems is just another day in the Trump administration; however, while these next years will be filled with great change, they are going to be very difficult and disconcerting. Change is always like that but in this case, it will be even harder.

The more we read about the entrenched corruption in the world, the more we see the magnitude of Trump’s challenge. We may not like everything, see the results we want, not like some personalities, and we may have to compromise. But remember: Perfect is the enemy of good.

It does not all have to be perfect. We can achieve good results, keep good momentum by consistently putting people before government.

It is by faith that we will turn the direction of humanity. We ask you to pray without ceasing for our leaders.

DOJ fires officials involved in Trump prosecutions by special counsel Jack Smith.

"Today, Acting Attorney General James McHenry terminated the employment of a number of DOJ officials who played a significant role in prosecuting President Trump," a DOJ official told NBC News.

"In light of their actions, the Acting Attorney General does not trust these officials to assist in faithfully implementing the President's agenda," that official said. "This action is consistent with the mission of ending the weaponization of government."

The number and names of the fired officials were not disclosed.

Fox News reported earlier Monday that McHenry had fired more than a dozen officials who worked on Smith's team in its prosecutions of Trump.

Smith had filed criminal charges against Trump in two separate cases: one in federal district court in Washington, D.C., the second federal district court in South Florida.

In the D.C. case, Trump was accused of crimes related to his attempt to reverse his loss to former President Joe Biden in the 2020 election.

Trump asks federal agencies to make RTO plans for workers living more than 50 miles from an office.

President Donald Trump's administration asked federal agencies to implement plans to return federal workers to the office — including those who live miles away.

On Monday, the Office of Personnel Management and the Office of Management and Budget issued new guidance that expanded on an RTO executive order for federal workers originally issued on January 21.

Specifically, the memo asked agencies to "determine permanent worksites" for employees who have been working remotely full-time and include "the steps the agency will take to move these employees' duty stations to the most appropriate Federal office based on the employees' duties and job functions."

The memo also asked agencies to provide a description that justifies why employees who live more than 50 miles from existing worksites should receive relocation benefits.

Agencies should begin working on "phasing in the return of remote workers who are more than 50 miles from a current agency office, which may present unique challenges," the memo said.
