Yes, since about the 6th of November 2024. • End of the Green new scam. - What specific bits? Pause on funding for green industries and rollback of ban on fracking on federal land amongst others. • Suspension of federal hiring. - Unsure Nothing to be unsure about. [b]"The hiring freeze applies to all positions in the executive branch except for the military and other categories like national security, public safety and immigration enforcement, according to the order. Outside of those categories no jobs that were empty as of noon Monday can be filled, and no new positions can be created."[/b] • Suspension of foreign aid. - All of it? Even to Ukraine? Yep, even to your precious Ukraine. • The free speech act (Misinformation/Disinformation the sensor`s favourite words). - Specifics? [b] By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, it is hereby ordered as follows: Section 1. Purpose. The First Amendment to the United States Constitution, an amendment essential to the success of our Republic, enshrines the right of the American people to speak freely in the public square without Government interference. Over the last 4 years, the previous administration trampled free speech rights by censoring Americans’ speech on online platforms, often by exerting substantial coercive pressure on third parties, such as social media companies, to moderate, deplatform, or otherwise suppress speech that the Federal Government did not approve. Under the guise of combatting “misinformation,” “disinformation,” and “malinformation,” the Federal Government infringed on the constitutionally protected speech rights of American citizens across the United States in a manner that advanced the Government’s preferred narrative about significant matters of public debate. Government censorship of speech is intolerable in a free society. Sec. 2. Policy. It is the policy of the United States to: (a) secure the right of the American people to engage in constitutionally protected speech. (b) ensure that no Federal Government officer, employee, or agent engages in or facilitates any conduct that would unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen. (c) ensure that no taxpayer resources are used to engage in or facilitate any conduct that would unconstitutionally abridge the free speech of any American citizen. and (d) identify and take appropriate action to correct past misconduct by the Federal Government related to censorship of protected speech.

| 7. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Thu 23rd Jan 2025. 21:16 [b] Sec. 3. Ending Censorship of Protected Speech. (a) No Federal department, agency, entity, officer, employee, or agent may act or use any Federal resources in a manner contrary to section 2 of this order. (b) The Attorney General, in consultation with the heads of executive departments and agencies, shall investigate the activities of the Federal Government over the last 4 years that are inconsistent with the purposes and policies of this order and prepare a report to be submitted to the President, through the Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, with recommendations for appropriate remedial actions to be taken based on the findings of the report. Sec. 4. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect: (i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof. or (ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals. (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations. (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person. THE WHITE HOUSE, January 20, 2025.[/b] • End of weaponization of the legal system against political opponents. - 😂 Not sure why that is funny? I mean Biden pretty much issued an appeal to every criminal politician. • End of the racist and sexist DEI policies a return to a merit based system. - Unsure, which ones are specifically racist or sexist? It should be based on who is the right person regardless of race, sex, sexuality. What is he objecting to? What are you objecting to? Trump is bringing a return to merit based hiring, you seem to be agreeing with him. • Strengthening, yes strengthening of NATO by demanding members increase spending to 5% of GDP. - Surely this won`t be needed if he`s going to get everyone to chuck their nukes? Yep, 3% would probably be fine if there was no nukes, but there is so it`s going up to 5% • Gaza ceasefire and return of hostages. - Agree but already agreed so not to do with him. "Trump was ‘the closer’ on Gaza cease-fire deal" https://www.politico.eu/article/trump-was-the-closer-on-the-gaza-deal/ • Declaration of energy crisis in the US. - Agree but he`s doing away with green policies that could help the US transition from oil. Why would America wish to transition away from oil, coal and gas? Wind power is nonsense and so is solar, fossil fuels are the future. Post Edited (Thu 23 Jan 21:17) Reply |
| 8. Author: Bletchley_Par Date: Thu 23rd Jan 2025. 21:17 • EU red tape and how Trump is going to persuade the EU to scrap them. - Why would the EU do this? The US has a 130 Billion trade deficit with the EU. Tarifs on produce and cars will focus even Eurocrats minds. • LNG production and trade agreement of it`s sale to Europe. - Does Europe need LNG? Yes, because Russia supplies much of it. Trump 1.0 warned Germany about this, they laughed, they are not laughing now. • Rapid approval for AI plants and approval for it`s power needs. - Does he even understand this? Yes, he seems to understand the importance of off grid power for AI centres, he explained it quite well in the speech. • Nuclear disarmament with Russia and China and then the rest of the world. - More chance of the Devil needing to wear ice skates to the office. Ah, but a man`s reach should exceed his grasp, Or what`s a heaven for? You could`ve answered these questions yourself if you had actually watched it. Reply |

I don`t wish to be intrude but your post is a sign of someone having a potential episode. Please speak to your GP if this is a regular thing. Reply |
| 12. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Thu 23rd Jan 2025. 23:07 jake89, Thu 23 Jan 22:27 Dont think they (don’t want to assume gender) have a mental deficiency. I think they are just another one of these internet users (wont use troll as they are more intelligent) that thrives off causing division and controversy to feed their own self entitlement. I’m not quite sure how they are still going though as they must struggle to fit in their ramblings on here around the 47 w@nks they have a day whilst reading the responses to their bile.

| 14. Author: jake89 Date: Thu 23rd Jan 2025. 23:43 Dandy Warhol, Thu 23 Jan 23:30 Bipolar. While I accept you are seeing this as me being insulting, I am flagging a genuine concern and will not pipe down. I`ll so point out I would never use neurodivergency as an insult, particularly as half my household has a neurodivergency (ADHD and dyslexia) and I have two family members with bipolar, which is why I am flagging the concern..

| 20. Author: Dandy Warhol Date: Fri 24th Jan 2025. 10:09 jake89, Fri 24 Jan 08:17 Reading it back I jumped the gun so again apologies, you`ve obviously had plenty experience with neurodivergency with your family, the misunderstanding is all on me. "Are you being autistic again" is a common grenade unfortunately, hey, have a good day. I don`t wanna go down like disco. Reply |
