John C. Wright's Journal

Honestly, I cannot keep up with all this winning. Let me at least report what others are reporting. This is from the pen of Charlie Kirk:

Day 3 of the Trump Administration is on the books. On his third day, President Trump:

• Completed the shutdown of all DEI offices in the government and placed all existing DEI employees on indefinite leave.
• Announced a new deployment of 1,500 active-duty troops to assist in securing the US-Mexico border.
• Received a commitment from the crown prince of Saudi Arabia to increase trade and investment with the U.S. by $600 billion.
• Ordered the Border Patrol to begin immediately deporting anybody caught crossing into America illegally, without a hearing, ending the insane Biden policy of catching illegal crossers only to then let them claim asylum and be released into America with a court date months or years in the future.
• Ordered a freeze on DOJ consent decrees with local police departments, which Biden and Obama used to shackle local police and prevent them from stopping crime. -Pardoned two D.C. police officers wrongfully convicted in a political show trial after a gang member they were pursuing fled into traffic and was hit by a car.
• Had the Defense Department commit to using military aircraft to assist CBP in deportation operation. For half a century, America has had Republican administrations filled with people terrified to fulfill their electoral mandates. That pattern has ended.
• Declassified the hitherto top secret documents surrounding the assassination of RFK, JFK, MLK. All conspiracy theories will now be proved or put to rest.
• President Trump signs executive order officially banning the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).

1458 days to go.

I am not tired of wining, but I cannot keep up with the news.

1. President Trump grants deportation authority for illegal immigrants to ATF, U.S. Marshals and DEA agents.  Many people deputized means many deportations.

2. President Trump has signed an executive order rescinding Lyndon Johnson’s EO 11246, which established affirmative action, and banning all federal contractors and publicly-funded universities from practicing race-based discrimination, including DEI.

3. President Trump has issued an executive order reinstating federal capital punishment.

Donald Trump has imposed a communications blackout across America’s federal health agencies, including the CDC, FDA, HHS, and NIH.

These agencies have been instructed to halt all external communications, such as publishing scientific reports, updating websites, and issuing health advisories.

The directive was issued suddenly and without prior notice.

My comment: bye-bye Bird Flu panic.

Trump has apparently disbanded the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention. The website is down.

Rejoice.

Buy guns and ammo. Arm yourself, learn gun safety, and spend time at the range, you and your young sons. Hurrah for Guns and Bibles! Defend the nation from the Dems and from the Demons.

AND THERE IS MORE

Maybe I am actually tired of winning. It is too much. I cannot keep track of all the winning, much less make a trenchant comment on it.

I will leave this list here:

UPDATED LATER:

• President Trump has shut down the pro-abortion http://reproductiverights.gov HHS website. One wag comments “It was just a clump of data.”
• President Donald Trump signed an executive order  withdrawing the U.S. from the World Health Organization.
• The smuggling and slaver cartels that Joe Biden’s allies operated within our borders have been declared global terrorist organizations. See here.

President Trump has been officially sworn in. There was, as of the time of this writing, no last minute shenanigans, no assassins.
Our long national nightmare is ended. The new golden age has begun.

And we are going to Mars.

I will post later today, once news of any first day executive orders or other actions is known.
