Republican Party Achieved The “Trifecta” After Winning Senate and House of Representatives

Republican Congress Members

by Admin Nov 14, 2024 The Republicans have achieved a total victory over the Democrats in the general elections by taking control of the Senate, House of Representatives and, the Presidency since 2018 under the Donald Trump administration. A repeat of the Trifecta under President Donald Trump has granted the Republicans total control of the United States government after winning the House of Representatives in a vote of 218 in favor of the Republicans while the Democrats had 208 votes. The Republican House has been secretly working on how to pass the tax reduction bill and other legislative measures that are considered priorities for the successful passage of the Donald Trump administration. The victory of the House of Representatives will grant Mike Johnson, the extension of holding the gavel as the speaker of the House till January 2025. The Republicans picked up victory in unusual states such as Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Colorado but also lost seats in California and New York. Even though the Republican leaders were confident of retaining control of the House of Representatives but were conflicted with doubt when they could not compete with the fundraising efforts of the Democrats. Steve Scalise, the Republican Majority House Leader said. “There are only about 45 seats in the country that are truly competitive. … And so each one of them is very competitive and very expensive and our candidates are great” The House victory was called for Republicans on Wednesday night after Juan Ciscomani was projected to win his reelection to Arizona’s 6th Congressional District. The campaign focus on the border crisis and the rejuvenation of the economy played a major factor in the outcome of the elections in favor of the Republicans. The Republican party leaders have expressed confidence that the days of 30-plus-seat majorities are over for the next few years. The Republicans also had some help in the last house session by the Democrats’ decision to pursue a less aggressive redistribution of power map in New York which has been a key factor in the power struggle between Republicans and Democrats. Another major factor that made the difference in the election of the Republicans being more intentional with their candidate recruitment and which challengers they backed in the primaries than they were in 2022.

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy Make History As Heads Of The First United States Department of Government Efficiency

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy

by Admin Nov 15, 2024 The newly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump has kept to his long-time campaign promise to create the first United States Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and to appoint tech billionaire Elon Musk and former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy as the first Heads of the department. President Trump made this known on Tuesday in a statement on his social media page on X and Truth. The president-elect pointed out that the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency is to combat bureaucracy and cut down the excessive spending of government funds. DOGE which is an acronym for Elon Musk’s favorite cryptocurrency “DOGECOIN”. The SpaceX founder has been at the forefront of calling for down the excessive spending budget of the Biden/Harris administration. President Trump revealed that both Elon Musk and Rivek Ramaswamy will work as an advisory length and will not be officially part of any government department. The Department Of Government Efficiency is aimed at overhauling federal operations to cut down wasteful spending and also improving the financial performance of the government. President Trump further emphasized that this department would work on reforming and streamlining government processes, and the goal of the Department is to conclude its responsibilities by July 4, 2026. Elon Musk, who played a significant role in the successful re-election of President Trump donated millions of dollars during the campaign period and was very vocal in his support of Donald Trump using his social media platform X as an integral tool to enhance the campaign sanitization of the American voters. President Trump himself sketched up a plan for Elon Musk in his government to help with cost-cutting on the campaign trail. He said Musk and Ramaswamy would work with the White House and Office of Management & Budget to tackle “massive waste and fraud” in $6.5 trillion dollars of annual government spending. Vivek Ramaswamy, who ran against Donald Trump during the Republic presidential debate, decided to abandon his presidential campaign and throw his support behind President Trump. Vivek said that the reason for his actions was that he strongly believed in the policies of Donald Trump and he was very confident that he was the man who was right to lead the country. The department does not currently exist and, when created, it is not expected to be an official department. However, such agencies like the Department of Government Efficiency have to be established through an act of Congress and will demand the employment of thousands of people.

United States and Polish soldiers pose in front of the new missile base in Redzikowo, Poland.

by Admin Nov 13, 2024 The United States will declare the opening of a new military missile base in Poland today. The missile base which is located in Redzikowo, Northwestern Poland, and close to the Baltic Sea is set to be a permanent missile military base which is close to the Russian border. Redzikowo is located 100 miles from Russia’s Kaliningrad exclave, a town in which Russia has a powerful military presence that now stands between NATO members Poland and Lithuania. The missile base, which is named Aegis Ashore, stands as a vital part of NATO’s broader missile defense shield which is designed to intercept short- to intermediate-range ballistic missiles. The missile system includes another Aegis Ashore site in Romania, a United States Navy destroyer based in Spain’s Rota dock, and an early-warning radar station in Turkey’s Kurecik. The inauguration of the missile base was announced by Radoslaw Sikorski, the Polish Foreign Minister who disclosed this on his official page in a video posted to X on Tuesday. He revealed that the military project stands as a show of the “geostrategic consistency of the United States… and a relationship of the Polish-American alliance is strong, regardless of who governs in Warsaw and Washington.” The missile base is the first United States base in Central Europe and was started by former President George Bush’s administration which was continued by former President Barack Obama’s administration and was finished by President Joe Biden. The inauguration of the Redzikowo missile base comes during a time when most NATO members are concerned about Donald Trump’s past remarks, which indicated that the United States might not defend NATO allies who fail to meet defense spending targets. Moscow and Belarus have condemned the opening of the missile base and have termed it a threat to their national security. However, Wladyslaw Kosiniak-Kamysz, the Polish Defense minister has dismissed Moscow and Belarus’s claim that the missile shield stands as a threat to Russia and Belarus, he further said “We will discuss this expansion with NATO and the United States”. Mark Rutte, the NATO Secretary-General is set to meet Polish President Andrzej Duda and his Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Warsaw after the inauguration of the missile base to discuss a further strategy for the expansion of NATO security strategy.

Muslim Arab Leaders Assembled In Saudi to Call For the End of the War In Middle East

by Admin Nov 12, 2024 Muslim-Arab leaders convened in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia over the weekend to discuss the volatile situation in the Middle East and the Arab world at large. The meeting which began on Friday and ended on Monday had 57 Arab-Muslim leaders from the world in the four-day summit that had the Western world on its toes. The meeting was organized by the Arab League (AL) and the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), as a form of solidarity against Israel’s aggressive behavior in the Middle East, which has desolated Gaza with thousands of people dead, while Lebanon has been under constant Israeli airstrikes, and a constant tussle of power between Israel and Iran has increased the tension in the Middle East to another level of chaos. The failure of the United States and the United Kingdom to call Israel to order has been seen as an act of enforcing the Israeli continuous military aggression in Gaza and Lebanon. In the last few days, the United States and the United Kingdom have sent military warplanes to the Middle East as a show of support for Israel in its continuous military campaign in Gaza and Lebanon. The summit’s closing statement called for the return to the pre-1967 borders, referencing United Nations resolutions and the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative, which offered Israel normalized relations in exchange for a two-state resolution. The leaders called for the sovereignty of a Palestinian state and the implementation of making East Jerusalem the capital with a call for an international plan and support for the implementation of the resolution. In a show of support for the people of Gaza and Lebanon, Mohammed Bin Salam, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia echoed the need for a ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon, he said, immediately halt the Israeli actions against our brothers in Palestine and Lebanon… and the condemnation of Israel genocide in Gaza”. The Crown Prince also condemned Israel’s provocative acts towards Iran and called for an immediate halt to the provocations. Backing the statement of the Crown Prince was Najib Mikati, the Prime Minister of Lebanon who disclosed this country has been under constant internal and external conflict due to Israel’s interference in his country’s sovereignty and has reinforced the need for Israel to be stopped by any means necessary. Hamas in its statement at the summit said “The establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital would require more immediate efforts and practical solutions to force (Israel) to stop its aggression and genocide against our people”. A call that has been dismissed by the Israeli government, in a statement issued by Bezalel Smotrich, the Israeli Finance Minister who reiterated that the creation of Palestinian statehood is not “realistic”. He further disclosed that the Israeli government will push for the annexation of the West bank as part of their plan to erase the realization of a Palestinian state.

Britain Secretary of Defense Express Confidence In Donald Trump’s Commitment To NATO and Ukraine.

John Healey, Britain Secretary of State Defense

by Admin Nov 12, 2024 John Healey, the British Secretary of Defense on Monday, revealed that the British government expects the stance of the incoming United States President Donald Trump administration toward NATO and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine against Russia to remain unchanged and continue to support Ukraine. He made this known at a press conference in London, where he expressed his confidence that the Donald Trump government would remain committed to NATO and to supporting Ukraine “for as long as it takes.” Healey further emphasized that he believes the U.S. commitment to NATO and European security will remain robust under a Trump presidency. He noted the necessity for European nations to enhance their defense spending and take on a greater share of responsibility in this regard. In response to inquiries about potential decreases in support for Ukraine following Trump’s election victory last week, Healey stated that President Trump acknowledges that nations achieve security through strength, much like NATO alliances. He also dismissed the notion that the president-elect would withdraw the U.S. from NATO, highlighting the importance of the alliance in maintaining stability and preventing further conflict in Europe. Healey lately has been actively engaged with the British media to discuss topics relating to the fate of NATO under Donald Trump’s new administration. While the details of Trump’s approach to Ukraine and other issues remain uncertain, he recently had a telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin who called him to congratulate him on his election victory and urged the Russian president to exercise caution and refrain from escalating the conflict in Ukraine. Donald Trump has expressed interest in future discussions on how to put an end to the war in Ukraine, emphasizing the significant military presence of the United States army in Europe. During his campaign, the newly elected president disclosed that he would find a solution to end the war “within a day,” although he did not reveal the details of how this would be achieved. With the current situation in the war, Russia has increased its military actions, including the mobilization of 10,000 North Korean troops, and has deployed over 2,000 one-way attack drones targeting Ukrainian cities.

Federal Judge Halts Joe Biden Plan For Undocumented Spouses

by Admin Nov 9, 2024 Judge Campbell Parker, a United States District Court Judge has ruled against President Joe Biden’s plan to create a pathway to United States citizenship for undocumented immigrants who are married to American citizens. Judge Parker who is an appointee of Donald Trump during his last administration said that President Joe Biden administration lacked the power to make such decisions to enact the programme. Judge Campbell Parker supported a filed lawsuit which was brought by 16 Republican states that kicked against the Biden administration not being able to bypass the Congress to pass the immigration legislation. Hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants have been blocked by Judge Barker a few days after the program started in August. In August the Biden administration announced the Keeping Families Together programme, which will give undocumented immigrants married to United States citizens living in the country for a decade or more a chance of getting a green card without leaving the United States. The program will allow residents with green cards who are married to United States citizens to be able to apply for citizenship after three years. The White House was dissatisfied with the ruling of Judge Campbell Parker and in a statement by Angelo Fernández Hernández, the White House Spokesman said “This ruling sides with Republican state officials who are seeking to force US citizens and their families, people who have lived in the United States for more than ten years, to either separate or live in the shadows in constant fear of deportation”. He further added that “Our Administration believes in keeping American families together,” and that the Biden administration is looking at all possible solutions to overturn the decision in the Supreme Court. Gene Hamilton, the executive director of Homeland Security said that he was highly disappointed by the ruling, he added that “We firmly believe Keeping Families Together is grounded in well-established legal authority, and its purpose is consistent with fundamental American values.” Gene further pointed out that “Since day one, the Biden-Harris Administration has dedicated itself to the decimation of our immigration system and the erasure of our borders”. The administration has planned to appeal Judge Barker’s ruling, but with the emergence of Donald Trump as the new president the hopes of appealing the ruling have been dashed as the newly elected president has already announced that his administration will carry out the biggest deportation in America history.

24 people killed In Train Station Bomb Explosion In Pakistan

Pakistan Soldier Standing over the Rumbles of the Bomb Blast

by Admin Nov 9, 2024 Tragedy struck in Pakistan when a bomb went off in a train station in Quetta in south-western of the country, killing 24 people and wounding dozens more. Confirming the incident is Mouzzam Jah Ansar, the Inspector General of police for Balochistan, who revealed that the prime target of the attack was a military officer from the Pakistan Infantry School. The bomb attack was carried out by a suicide attacker who detonated explosives inside the train station during Saturday busy morning rush hours. The suicide bomber has been linked to Islamic Separatists Group who carried out a deadly attack in August that claimed more than 70 people in Balochistan province after separatist militants attacked police stations, railway lines and highways. Muhammad Baloch, superintendent of police operations, said “The blast took place inside the railway station when the Peshawar-bound express was about to leave for its destination”. He further disclosed that police had begun an investigation into the attack and are working closely with the Pakistani military intelligence to fish out the orchestrators of the attack. Dr Wasim Baig, a hospital spokesman said “So far 44 injured people have been brought to civil hospital,” and most of the wounded brought to the hospital are in critical conditions. Pakistan has been under recurring terrorist attacks with most attacks coming from separatist ethnic militants in the south and Islamist militants in its north-west. No terrorist group has come forward to claim responsibility for the bomb attack at Quetta’s main railway station but intelligence reports indicate it was the same Islamic separatist group that carried out the August attack in the same province.
