Today brought a massive influx of news—some promising, some deeply concerning... from the shifting geopolitical landscape of the Gaza Peace Board to a stunning disappointment from JD Vance regarding ICE immunity. Let’s get into the analysis.
1. The Gaza Peace Board: Who is In and Who is Out?
The buy-in for this board is substantial: $1 billion for a permanent seat or $20 million for temporary membership. Here is the current breakdown of where the nations stand based on my latest intel.
StatusCountriesNotesAcceptedUSA, Israel, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, Turkey, Canada, UAE, Pakistan, Jordan, Hungary, Indonesia, Morocco, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bahrain, Bulgaria, Uzbekistan, Kosovo, Armenia.Canada is on the list but playing a multifaceted game I don't appreciate. It is good to see Turkey and the UAE putting up the money.RejectedFrance, Norway, Sweden, Italy, Slovenia, Belgium.France "opposes replacing the UN." Italy claims it "violates their constitution." Sweden cited "issues with the text" (...amidst their own internal violence issues).In LimboRussia, China, India, UK, Ukraine.Russia is "studying it." India "abstained" at Davos. Ukraine cites "skepticism about sitting with Russia," but I question if they can even pony up the $1 billion.
Key Takeaway: The media is missing the critical question: Where did these countries get the money, and how legitimate is it?
2. The Betrayal: JD Vance and ICE Immunity
I have to address the comments made by JD Vance today regarding ICE agents. He suggested that ICE agents do not have full immunity and that there are "errors" being made.
The Problem: Vance is essentially taking a "guilty until proven innocent" stance on American patriots. ICE is a relatively new organization (post-9/11) facing unprecedented conditions. It is bullshit that we cannot arrest the political leaders causing the chaos (like Walz or Newscum), so throwing the agents under the bus is absolutely unacceptable.The Political Cost: This absolutely kills morale. It sounds like he is reading talking points from the mainstream media or trying to appeal to CNN.My Stance: Unless this is rectified, I am done with Vance. I will not vote for him. He is showing a lack of experience and backbone. If he wants to act like a legal expert on a matter the Supreme Court hasn't even settled, he’s lost the plot.3. Congressional Spending & Leadership Failures
The House advanced a $1.2 trillion spending bill today. While there are some wins (defense funding), the devil is in the details, and Speaker Mike Johnson is failing us.
Body Cameras for ICE: The bill includes a mandate for ICE officers to wear body cameras. This was a concession to Democrats. I would have voted NO. This sets the stage for more "gotcha" politics against law enforcement.Wasteful Spending: Millions for "mental health services" and apprenticeships that should be private sector issues. Separately, what about Philadelphia's new $2.8 billion "facilities plan" while crime runs rampant? It’s a waste.4. Economic & Tech Watch
Elon Musk & SpaceX: The rumored IPO valuation for SpaceX is around $1.5 trillion, but they are only raising a small amount ($30 billion) from the public. This feels like the public is taking all the risk while insiders cash out. Also, the Optimus robot is coming soon, which is necessary since we need automation to compete with nations like India.Google & Canada: It appears Google is moving production of its Tensor Processing Units (TPUs) away from Canadian firm Celestica. This is likely a result of Canada’s open hostility to the USA.Amazon: They are raising prices and blaming tariffs. This is a very predictable and lazy anti-patriotic move by Jassy and the board to attempt to yet again undermine the Trump administration.Intel: Stock is slumping on declining profit margins. CEO Lip Bu-Tan is talking in circles about "execution" while margins compress.5. Shadow Wars and Domestic Chaos
The Burning Mail Truck: A USPS truck was engulfed in flames in Washington state, surrounded by graffiti. Whether it was a battery explosion or something else, it symbolizes the breakdown of order and the certainty of upcoming election interference via the postal service, especially in "sanctuary" "states."Starmer’s Sabotage: UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer is snubbing the Gaza Peace Board and his security chief suggested Hamas should keep arms. This is delusional.California Insurrection: The state continues to manipulate voting maps. The DOJ is rightfully urging the Supreme Court to block California's new maps immediately.6. Trump’s Year One Accomplishments (Wins #104–127, Part 2)
I am continuing my review of the 365 WINS of the first year of the administration. Here are the latest standouts:
Trade: Launched a plan for reciprocal trade and secured new agreements with over half of global GDP.Tariff Revenue: Sent tariff revenues soaring, collecting $300 billion to protect American industry.Steel & Aluminum: Raised tariffs to 25% to save our critical industrial base.Section 232: Used national security tariffs to protect critical minerals and semiconductor supply chains.TikTok: Finalized the national security deal to place the platform under USA ownership.Penny Production: Stopped the production of the penny (which cost 3.69 cents to make), saving taxpayer money.CFPB Halt: Paused the operations of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a regulatory weapon of the left.Final Thought: It was a day of one step forward (Davos/Trade), two steps back (Vance/Spending Bill). We need to stay vigilant, specifically regarding the situation in Iran and the integrity of our own borders.
