Here are 6 things you may not have noticed, but these short items are important:
- The Death of DOGE
DOGE was one of the best things Trump did after taking office this year. Led by Elon Musk, it transformed our government and economy by identifying massive waste and fraud. But now DOGE is dead.
Originally supposed to remain operational through July 2026, DOGE now remains only as a reminder of what could have been.
Labeled “the chainsaw for bureaucracy,” DOGE identified close to a trillion dollars in waste and fraud and eliminated many unnecessary programs. But it ultimately failed to downsize Washington’s out-of-control spending addiction, stop the out-of-control deficit or stop the deficit from inflating even further.
- Christian Conservative former Brazilian President Arrested!
Brazilian police, on behalf of the corrupt socialist president, arrested former President Jair Bolsonaro, dragging him from his home at 6 a.m. for allegedly violating his house arrest terms.
The South American county’s socialist Supreme Court unfairly place Bolsonaro on house arrest in August after convicting him for attempting to “overthrow democracy” following his 2022 election defeat.
The arrest was a “preventative” measure to stop Bolsonaro from escaping to avoid his 27-year prison sentence.
- No More Penny: RIP
The penny is gone. It’s the end of a 230-year history of the production of America’s most abundant coin since 1793.
Treasurer Brandon Beach explained that ending the penny production would “save the taxpayers $56 million,” as it’s become an expensive relic due to inflation.
- Libertarian Milei’s Political Party Wins – Free Market Reforms Advance
Milei’s political party had a significant election victory in the country’s mid-term elections on Sunday.
Milei’s Freedom Advances party (LLA) pulled in nearly 41% of the vote expanding the party’s number of seats in Argentina’s Congress. The result gives Milei insurance that his vetoes cannot be overridden, by congressional political opponents, allowing him to continue his cost-and regulation-cutting agenda.
President Trump, who endorsed Milei earlier this month when his administration engaged in a $20 billion currency swap investment with Argentina, welcomed the election outcomes in a post on Truth Social, stating, “Congratulations to President Javier Milei on his Landslide Victory in Argentina. He is doing a wonderful job! Our confidence in him was justified by the People of Argentina.”
- 18,000 Confirmed and Suspected Terrorists Entered the U.S. Under Biden
United States National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent said that the Biden administration allowed 18,000 known or suspected terrorists in the U.S.
That doesn’t count terrorists who may have crossed the open southern border, which could be even more.
Kent explained that the unknown nature of those who entered the country under Joe Biden is “the No. 1 threat that we have right now.”
- The FIFA World Cup “Pride Match”
The FIFA World Cup will include a “Pride Match.”
What could go wrong?
The match will be in Seattle during the city’s “Pride weekend” to “celebrate Pride as part of a global football community.”
The problem is Egypt and Iran will be the match. Both countries criminalize gay relationships, and in Iran, homosexuals can face the death penalty.
