President Donald Trump ushered in the Christmas season on Monday with a message his supporters have been waiting to hear for years, with a full return to traditional holiday celebration inside the White House.
The celebration was restored under Trump’s leadership after years of cultural pressure campaigns that pushed “inclusive” greetings and downplayed Christmas itself.
The White House released a photo of the president standing beside a towering Christmas tree decorated with classic red ornaments, gold ribbons, and traditional trimmings.
Portraits of Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and other American leaders hang behind him, underscoring a renewed emphasis on heritage, faith, and national identity.
Trump reshared the photo with a message that instantly electrified supporters:
“We’re saying MERRY CHRISTMAS again!”


Yesterday, The Hill ran a fabulous story headlined, “Gaetz, Loomer join new Pentagon press corps for rare briefing.” And if you haven’t seen the clips yet, brace yourself — former Project Veritas chief James O’Keefe, Human Events’ Jack Posobiec, and conservative wrecking ball Laura Loomer sitting smugly inside the Pentagon Press Pool, wearing corporate media’s official credential badges and occupying their surrendered seats...
Regular liberal reporters are bad enough. But if you wanted to find a real mean-girls clique, you should start with the Pentagon Press Corps. For decades, journalists with Pentagon access were some of the most Swamp-connected, arrogant, and entitled reporters in the business. The Pentagon Press Corps claimed they were ‘protecting democracy,’ which is simply adorable, like watching raccoons claim they’re ‘protecting the trash.’
Then, earlier this fall, the Pentagon announced a major revamp of operating procedures for press covering the department. Trump’s War Department asked reporters to sign a detailed press policy contract that restricted where they could wander in the Pentagon, and that banned publication of any unapproved material (in other words, any leaked or anonymously sourced material, especially classified stuff).
The War Department wasn’t saying reporters can’t publish unflattering stories; they just can’t source those stories from the Pentagon’s own employees. Do some work, for Pete’s sake. Get out of the office.
Corporate media reacted with all the dignity of a piñata at a toddler’s birthday party — but without the piñata’s integrity. A mass exodus of corporate media types rage-quit, shredding their Pentagon press badges in synchronized unison, to teach President Trump a lesson. Fine! We just won’t cover you at all then!
They expected the Pentagon to back down, since it historically has fawned over the intimate cadre of corporate media’s military reporters, who under Democrat Administrations always swallow its propaganda without spitting, but under Republican Administrations, leak intel like a giant war bucket with a thousand pinholes.
But instead of caving to the rage-quitting ninnies, the Trump Administration responded by handing fresh media credentials to independent, populist, MAGA, and generally non-approved voices— some of whom have never before covered a Pentagon press briefing or, frankly, any briefing at all.
Corporate media fainted on their velvet audition couches. How dare they? ...
What makes this story absolutely historic isn’t corporate media’s temper tantrum (that’s just background noise), but the Trump Pentagon’s decision to stand its ground and replace them outright. It reminds me of Reagan firing the striking air traffic controllers. For the first time in living memory, a presidential administration didn’t cower, appease, or issue the ritual apology to the credentialed elites; it executed a clean swap.
That took real institutional courage. It broke a decades-old cartel. And it fired off a warning shot: press access belongs to the public, not to a hereditary guild of narrative curators.
Trump has aired out one of the media’s most cherished insiders’ clubs, the smoky backroom where career Pentagon reporters spent decades trading flattering coverage for access, favors, and who-knows-what other unsavory bargains. Instead of appeasing the cartel after it staged its high-drama walkout, the administration cracked open the windows, rolled up its sleeves, and replaced them.
That’s the historic part: breaking one of the most protected guilds around, which thought it owned the briefing room. It took nerve and conviction. And it marked the first time in a generation that the War Department told the corporate press, politely but unmistakably, that its gravy train had reached its final destination. Buh bye.


Does the MSM really think that through gaslighting they can rally sympathy for drug dealers?







Official DOJ JustificationPreserving System Integrity: The EOIR states that judges must remain "impartial and neutral." Firings address "systematic bias" favoring immigrants (e.g., granting too many continuances or asylum claims), which allegedly undermines deportation efficiency.
At-Will Employment: As "inferior officers," judges serve at the president's pleasure, allowing removals without cause, especially for probationary hires (2-year term).
Workforce Restructuring: To clear a 3.5M+ case backlog, the administration fires "lenient" judges while hiring ~36 new ones (25 temporary "deportation judges," often military lawyers without immigration experience).
