Trump must still be in the good graces of organized crime. I can't believe they don't have dirt on him.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

Buncha Trump accomplishments this week!
Can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are the gift of God?

I admit, Trump is way cleaner than I imagined him ever to be.  The only charges I have seen that may not be total BS are the ones about the classified documents... and that is something that a bunch of other pols have done too, including Biden and Pence.  Who are not facing charges, of course.

Does an historic win in Iowa count as an accomplishment?

Oh, heck -- just getting reelected counts a lot. Nobody has ever been reelected after losing the election for their second consecutive term.

Trump won Tim Walz's home county, which went for Biden in 2020.

And flipped a 97% Hispanic county that hasn't voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 1892.

I wasn't sure if he'd lost reelection, or didn't run for a consecutive term for some reason after the first one.

JD Vance News
@JDVanceNewsX
🚨BREAKING: President Trump has announced that all military members who were discharged for refusing the COVID mandate will be reinstated and receive full back pay, along with a formal apology from the United States Government.

Does Trump have your full support on this?

I wonder if the backpay is "no strings attached"? I'm gonna guess a lot of people moved on and don't want to even go back. Or maybe there's an option for "reinstated and quit the next day" so they can get the backpay plus extra years in service.

Daniel Penny acquitted.

Notre Dame re-opened.

Elected for a second term and is hot out of the gate making things happen already in his first week.

Surprising accomplishments to me so far ...

Awesome post and accurate:

https://twitchy.com/grateful-calvin/2025/01/27/cynical-publius-the-traditional-way-vs-the-trump-way-n2407380

Traditional Approach:
1. Colombia announces it will not take our repatriation flights.
2. On Monday, the State Department convenes an interagency task force with DoD, NSC, DEA, INS, ICE, Commerce, Treasury and Homeland Security.
3. The task force meets for four days and develops a position paper.
4. The position paper is rejected by the Secretary of State, who is unhappy that insufficient equity considerations are built into the process.
5. The task force reconvenes a week later to redevelop three new, equity-centric courses of action and create a new position paper.
6. The process is delayed a week because Washington DC gets three inches of snow.
7. SecState approves the new position paper for interagency circulation, and considerable input is received from the heads of other departments so the task force must reconvene.
8. The original three proposed responsive courses of action are scrapped in favor of a new, fourth course of action that achieves the worst aspects of the three prior courses of action but satisfies the interagency.
9. Someone in State who disagrees leaks to the Washington Post, who writes a story about how ineffective the Presidential administration is.
10. The White House Chief of Staff sets up a session three days later to brief the President, who approves the new fourth course of action.
11. Over a month after the issue is first raised, the State Department Public Affairs Officer holds a press conference announcing that Colombia has agreed to try to send fewer criminals into the US and everyone declares victory.

Trump Approach:
1. Colombia announces it will not take our repatriation flights.
2. After a par-5 third hole where he goes one under par, Trump uses his iPhone to post on social media as to how the USA will destroy Colombia’s economy if they do not do what the USA demands.
3. By the time Trump gets to the par-4 sixth hole, Colombia’s President has agreed to repatriate all the illegal Colombians in his own plane, which he will pay for.
4. Trump finishes three under par and goes to the clubhouse for a Diet Coke where he posts a gangsta AI image of himself and the new FAFO Doctrine.
5. Winning.

See the difference?  It’s called LEADERSHIP.

The Liberal Hive Mind has a GREAT take down of liberal reaction to Colombia refusing the repatriation flights and Trump's threats of sanctions...

Harry Sisson, the epitome of "deeply accurate liberal insight," immediately screeched about how "EVERYTHING!!!" is going to get more expensive for Americans.

Only to have Colombia completely fold a couple of hours later.
