JUST-IN: Local Police Are Refusing to
Help Secure Trump’s Inauguration
Posted By: Imright, 1/17/2025 7:03:18 PM
Multiple local police departments from areas surrounding Washington, DC will reportedly refuse to assist with security for Trump’s inauguration on Monday as the swearing-in ceremony has been moved indoors. The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that President Trump announced his ceremony will be held inside the Capitol Rotunda, citing cold weather. However, there have also been concerns about Trump’s safety following the two recent assassination attempts.(Snip) Local police refusing to help comes after the Metropolitan Police Department Chief Pamela Smith announced last week that "nearly 4,000 officers from across the United States who were generous enough to raise their hands and commit their time

We're within hours of Donald Trump reassuming the White House and sending befuddled old Joe Biden off into the sunset - or back to Rehoboth Beach, not that Joe will know the difference. Our long national nightmare is drawing to a close, Donald Trump will carry out his historic non-consecutive second term, and we have a brilliant understudy in JD Vance - in fact, the younger generation of the GOP is full of stars, making us feel a little better about the country's future.
The occasion prompts one to take a look at President Trump's history - everything that has led us up to this moment.
Mr. Trump goes to Washington — again.
President-elect Donald Trump started his official return to Washington Saturday afternoon to prepare for his historic inauguration.
The Republican, along with wife Melania and youngest son Barron, waved to a crowd of supporters as he boarded a US military airplane supplied by President Biden in West Palm Beach, Fla. (Photos) His daughter Ivanka, 43, and her husband Jared Kushner, 44, were spotted boarding that aircraft Saturday afternoon.
Economic “wreckage” is occurring across the globe as the result of Russian aggression, Erik Prince, veteran and founder of Unplugged Technologies, discussed during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, highlighting the Russian seizure of an American-owned business.
He described the war in Ukraine as a “very unnecessary slaughter that’s gone on for multiple years now,” calling for its end.“There is no possibility that it’s going to end in some armistice moment of Ukrainian victory. There are thousands of people, thousands of soldiers on both sides, dying daily and very unnecessarily,” he began, laying out the bigger picture globally.
The 2025 inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump is expected to be a far cry from the former president's inaugural events of 2017.
This year's inauguration, which takes place on Monday, January 20, will be filled with a flurry of balls, musical acts, and political conferences throughout the weekend.
Perhaps the most stark difference between Trump’s first inauguration eight years ago are the musicians willing to perform at the event - including country music star Carrie Underwood, Gavin DeGraw, Rascal Flatts, Billy Ray Cyrus and Jason Aldean.
Festivities kicked off Saturday ahead of the 47th presidential inauguration — as thousands of ticket holders scrambled to find a choice viewing spot after the last minute venue shake-up.
President-elect Trump is expected to arrive at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, and will host a Saturday night reception and fireworks display at his Virginia golf course. He’s scheduled to host a rally Sunday at the Capital One Arena, with performances by the Village People, Kid Rock and Billy Ray Cyrus.
The eleventh hour decision to move inauguration indoors upended plans for thousands of ticket holders who had prepared to brave the bitter cold, but will now be unable to squeeze into
On day two of his presidency, President-elect Donald Trump plans to ignite a massive immigration raid in Chicago, sending a strong message that his administration will take a hardline stance on illegal immigration. The mass deportation raid is part of Trump’s broader plan to enforce immigration laws aggressively and send those who entered the United States illegally back to their home countries. With growing concerns over border security and the impact of unchecked immigration on local communities, the move will be seen as a fulfillment of Trump’s promise to prioritize American citizens and uphold the rule of law.
President Trump is assembling an administration stocked with prominent gay and lesbian Americans — defying hysterical Democratic rhetoric.
“When it comes to whether you’re gay or straight, black or white and all those markers others calculate — President Trump is decision blind. He bases his decision on the kind of job he knows you will do, period,” said Bill White, a top Trump fundraiser — who was tapped to serve as the US ambassador to Belgium.
Among the picks:
Scott Bessent, 62, treasury secretary. If confirmed, the hedge fund manager would be the highest-ranking openly gay official in US history.
Soon, open border advocates will step up their agitprop against the new Trump Administration for alleged migrant family separation at the U.S. border. A number of broader points about the family separation phenomenon are worth remembering.
The overwhelming majority of migrant family separation decisions are not made at the U.S. border by DHS. They are made by parents or others — including cartel criminals — in home countries.
Daily, thousands of border violators abandon some or all of their children in their home countries to make the trek into the U.S. illegally to find work.

marriage rumors: sources 27 replies
After weeks of speculation that the most famous marriage in politics was in trouble, Barack Obama posted a fawning tribute to the “love of his life,” Michelle Obama, in honor of her 61st birthday on Friday.
“You fill every room with warmth, wisdom, humor, and grace — and you look good doing it. I’m so lucky to be able to take on life’s adventures with you. Love you!,” he wrote on Instagram, beneath a photo of the casually-dressed couple holding hands over dinner.
“Love you, honey!” his wife quickly replied.
On Friday, the Senate voted to clear another hurdle when it comes to passing the Laken Riley Act. By a vote of 61-35, with 60 votes needed, the chamber voted to end debate on the bill. All 51 Republicans who voted did so to advance the bill, with 10 Democrats joining. Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) did not vote, although he is a cosponsor of the bill and in strong support.

Trump Holds 'Very Good' Call With China
3 replies
President-elect Donald Trump held a "very good" phone call with Chinese leader Xi Jinping on Friday, discussing critical issues like the ongoing fentanyl crisis and the U.S. ban on TikTok. As the United States grapples with skyrocketing drug overdoses and concerns over Chinese-backed apps infiltrating American society, Trump’s direct approach to these matters stands in stark contrast to the lackluster responses from the current administration. By engaging with Xi, Trump signals his commitment to holding China accountable while safeguarding American interests, especially as the nation faces challenges that impact both national security and public health.
Judge Aileen Cannon during a hearing on Friday appeared skeptical of Merrick Garland’s plan to give Jack Smith’s Volume 2 final report on Trump’s classified documents case to Congress.
Cannon repeatedly asked DOJ lawyers why they needed to show the classified documents report to lawmakers. The Judge also asked if the final report was safeguarded from being leaked to the public.
“Why is there such urgency to disclose this to Congress right now, prior to the conclusion of the criminal proceeding — which would seem to be the ordinary course?” Cannon asked DOJ attorney Elizabeth Shapiro,

Democratic Rep. Jim Clyburn believes Joe Biden will go down as one of the greatest presidents in American history.
In an interview on MSNBC’s Chris Jansing Reports, the South Carolina congressman said that history will judge Biden kindly.
“Given everything that was in place when he took office, Covid the economic challenges, do you think that this was in some ways inevitable?” Jansing asked.
”And how do you think history will judge this presidency?”
Clyburn responded:
I think that he will go down as one of the greatest presidents we ever had.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass got into office promoting diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) and promising to tackle homelessness and pollution — but she never promised to drain the swamp. Now she stands accused of adding to it, through “legalized corruption” and a number of eye opening scandals which have come to light after renewed scrutiny in the last two weeks following the revelation Bass and her cronies defunded the Los Angeles Fire Department by $17 million, contributing to them being underprepared to tackle the wildfires currently destroying the city.

During the second confirmation hearing for Attorney General Nominee Pamela Bondi, the former Department of Justice top official who led the phony “Russiagate” investigation of Donald Trump claimed America’s top law officers are responsible for “preventing” the agency’s “weaponization.(smip) McCord was the top national security official who, until her departure in 2017, led the DOJ’s hoax investigation of the Trump campaign for supposed “ties to Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election,” as NBC reported.

The Safeway Food Store in the Filmore District of San Francisco has been beset with shoplifters and other criminal activity for years. The company finally decided in December that it had enough and was closing the doors of the store for good.
George Gibbs, a long-time shopper at the store, acknowledges the problems. "I've seen people running out the door with stuff and running across the parking lot," he said. "I've seen folks walk out in handcuffs for stealing something."
Black Lives Matter activists are now demanding that the store stay open or that another low-cost food store take its place.
President Joe Biden on Jan. 17 announced he has ratified the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), despite the U.S. archivist recently saying the president could not ratify the constitutional amendment.(snip)
The U.S. archivist and U.S. deputy archivist said in late 2024 that the president could not ratify the amendment because the amendment did not receive the required support from three-fourths of the states by the deadline Congress imposed, which was June 30, 1982.
The Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel in 2020, while Donald Trump was president, and in 2022, after Biden took office, also said that ratification cannot occur unless Congress or the courts extend or remove the ratification deadline.

Democrat Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii faced mockery on social media on Thursday over her opening questions to Interior Secretary nominee Doug Burgum during his confirmation hearing. "As part of my responsibilities to ensure the fitness of nominees before any of the committees on which I sit, I ask the following two initial questions," Hirono said to Burgum on Thursday. "First is, since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment or assault of a sexual nature?"
"No, senator, I have not," Burgum responded.
"Have you ever faced discipline or entered into a settlement related to

Far-left social media page Occupy Democrats has dubbed President-elect Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day a “National Day of Mourning,” and instructed its more than 10 million followers to wear black for the occasion.
While Martin Luther King Jr. Day will also be observed on Monday, the fake news outlet decided that it is not sufficient enough for anti-Trumpers, and issued a “friendly reminder” on Facebook on Thursday: [FB post]
“Don’t forget to wear all black on January 20th. National Day of Mourning,” the page, founded by Mexican-born brothers Omar and Rafael Rivero in 2012, stated.

The US Treasury Department will start taking "extraordinary measures" next week to avoid risking a default on government debt, Secretary Janet Yellen said Friday, days before President-elect Donald Trump takes office.
With the government reaching its borrowing limit, the department would start making the moves on Tuesday, the day after the inauguration, Yellen said in a letter to congressional leaders. That will mean Trump's administration has to grapple immediately with the issue of the debt ceiling. In the past, Congress has routinely voted to lift this bar, but that tool has become a contentious issue, with Republican budget hawks calling for drastic spending reductions instead.
