Good! Trump Signs Executive Order To Ban Welfare For Illegal Aliens

President Trump [has signed] an executive order designed to terminate any & all federal taxpayer benefits going to illegal aliens. The order will direct every federal agency & department to identify all federally funded programs currently providing any financial benefits to illegal aliens, and “take corrective action”, ensuring that any federal funds to states and localities “will not be used to support sanctuary policies or assist illegal immigration.”

Additionally, the executive order will mandate improvements in eligibility verification to prevent federal benefits from going to anyone in the US illegally.

“Under current welfare laws, specifically the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), illegal aliens are generally barred from welfare programs. But if they’re granted parole, they are classified as “qualified aliens” and become eligible for various welfare programs on a sliding scale, with full eligibility granted within five years.”

“The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated that the Biden Administration’s open borders agenda, which sought to provide Medicaid-funded emergency services to illegal aliens, has cost Federal and state taxpayers more than $16.2 billion.”

“The Biden Administration gave billions in taxpayer dollars to left-wing groups that facilitated mass illegal migration and provided legal services to challenge deportation orders. In addition, since 2021, more than $1 billion has been allocated through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to illegal aliens.”

This corruption, waste and abuse needs to stop. Only American citizens should be allowed to get American welfare.

Both sides knew Ukraine no longer has access to a vast majority of mineral wealth, the Russians now control. Trump was calling Zelensky's bluff is all. Zelensky insisted a deal, war with Russia for vast mineral wealth and Trump said "OK then, here, sign a contract!" and Zelensky backed out. His bluff was called. He knows Ukraine can no longer provide anything and they are losing the war.

I don't see enough arrests happening now to prove that theory would ever happen.

Too Bad! Trump Cannot Allow A Declining Europe To Drag America Down With Them

Last week, leaders of European governments got very upset with the new Trump administration.

First, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said a return to pre-2014 Ukraine-Russia borders was an “unrealistic objective” in the coming peace negotiations and that European leaders shouldn’t assume American troops would be present on the continent forever.

Then, Vice President JD Vance gave a speech at a security conference in Germany in which he admonished European governments for repeatedly violating the liberal democratic principles they loudly and falsely proclaim to defend. He cited the recent reversal of an election in Romania after the result went against what the ruling regime and its Western European allies wanted, as well as a plethora of crackdowns on political dissent from some of Washington’s closest allies on the continent.

Finally, President Trump announced that the US government would begin direct talks with the Russian government to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine. Those talks began on Tuesday without any involvement from other European governments, including Ukraine.

Needless to say, these statements and developments greatly angered European leaders who were evidently convinced the US would continue to station troops, send weapons, and provide funding for the continent’s security while letting the governments act however they wanted and while treating them as the primary parties in the proxy war we’ve been bankrolling.

By all indications, the Trump administration’s goal here is to pressure European governments to spend more of their own taxpayers’ money to fund NATO. Which is unfortunate, because Europe is deep in a self-inflicted decline right now, and US taxpayers should not be forced to take part in it at all.

From an American perspective, the decline of Europe is tragic as some of the best aspects of our institutions and culture can be drawn back to the period after Europe’s rise. After the fall of the Roman Empire, Western Europe splintered into many small political units. The relatively small territories of these states, along with the presence of strong non-state institutions like the Church and an international merchant class, meant power was highly decentralized. As scholars like Ralph Raico, Nathan Rosenberg, and L.E. Birdzel Jr. have demonstrated, the highly decentralized set-up of Europe in the Middle Ages was the primary factor in generating the prosperity that went on to give the West more power and a safer, more comfortable standard of living than any other civilization in history.

Unfortunately, the immense amount of wealth also allowed governments to siphon it off and grow very powerful. This is the very same threat America has faced the last few decades as well, which Donald Trump and DOGE are trying to derail and reform, to bring back American prosperity and freedom.

The British and other European ruling classes presented their lavish governments and foreign expansionism as a sign of national glory. But the rise of these large, powerful states represented the steady abandonment and betrayal of the very institutions that had fueled Europe’s growth (capitalism to socialism to fascism/communism).

The astonishing productivity of the Industrial Revolution kept the party going through the 1800s. But, famously, a series of war guarantees pulled nearly all of Europe into the largest, bloodiest war the world had seen in 1914. The sheer brutality of the war and the decisive defeat of the Central Powers — brought about by the US’s unnecessary entrance — set the stage for the rise of the Nazis and the second World War. And WWII obliterated what remained of European power.

In the decades since, much of Western Europe has sunk to the level of becoming de facto vassals of Washington, DC while moving even further away from decentralized institutions and a respect for private property rights. Which brings us to the European situation that Trump, Vance, and Hegseth confronted last week as they took the reins of the American government.

Western European governments have instituted totalitarianism in the name of averting the rise of totalitarianism and built up another large network of war guarantees in the name of preventing another world war. The European establishment is seemingly still so traumatized from WWII that it acts like history began in 1933 and ignores all the important lessons from before that date.

And, as Trump finally moves to end US involvement in the war in Ukraine, European leaders are scrambling to find ways to independently double down on the same stupidity that helped bring the war about in the first place. The decline of Europe is a sad thing to watch.

If Europe is really set on shrinking back into obscurity through domestic totalitarianism, economic stagnation, or by setting off a new continent-wide war, American taxpayers will not be forced to help. You have been warned. Our family members WILL NOT DIE for your wars anymore. America is OUT.

Me and my family are happy preppers, homesteading. We live pretty rural but we still have some families living in the country side nearby. Plenty of basic essentials stocked and we've been collecting things for many years, actually over a decade. We also have a big garden and can foods too. When SHTF, we will do our part to help nearby Americans in need ….but as far as security, yah THIS TOO: >>22618992
