_Machine-generated by trump.fm on 2026-04-08T03:18:21.821Z (UTC): a model's reading of the day's posts, not his words. Its psychological terms describe the language, not a clinical assessment of him._

**Crime Crusader: A Coordinated Day of Safety Theater, Victim Exploitation, and Hemispheric Military Bravado**

Trump devoted most of the day to a coordinated crime-and-safety messaging blitz, toggling between claiming credit for making New York and Washington safer while spotlighting horrific violence in Chicago and Charlotte to blame Democratic officials. A rapid-fire burst of posts in the early afternoon amplified military operations, cartel crackdowns, and an article endorsing aggressive hemispheric military posture — including a bounty on Venezuela's president. The day's most striking moment was his lengthy exploitation of a violent attack on a Ukrainian refugee, converting real suffering into a campaign endorsement. Notably absent: any mention of the appeals court upholding the E. Jean Carroll defamation verdict against him.

# Daily Psychological Digest — September 8, 2025

## Location & Timezone Context

Trump was in the Washington, D.C. area on this date, having delivered remarks at the Museum of the Bible. All analysis uses EDT (UTC−4). Posts span **7:45 AM to 7:23 PM EDT** — a conventional 11.5-hour waking window with no sleep-pattern anomalies.

---

## I. Psychological State: Unyielding Grandiosity

The day's dominant psychological state is **grandiose**, with 15 of 16 posts coded grandiose and one coded mixed (ts_115168717159863645, the Biden Autopen post). There is no vulnerable state registered at any point. This represents one of the more psychologically uniform days in the dataset — a sustained grandiose broadcast with no defensive retreats, no victimhood posturing, and no signs of narcissistic injury breaking through into public expression.

The grandiosity manifests in two registers:

1. **Protector-savior grandiosity**: The dominant mode. Trump positions himself as the sole force making American cities safe (ts_115168503787643723, ts_115168778764944128), the arbiter of cultural worthiness (ts_115168758828419703), and the military commander securing the hemisphere (ts_115169645272594518, ts_115169695509089058).

2. **Arbiter grandiosity**: Evident in the Tom Hanks/West Point post, where a single institutional decision is leveraged into a sweeping cultural mandate. Trump positions himself as the authority who determines who deserves "cherished American Awards" — a claim of cultural sovereignty extending well beyond presidential authority.

The single mixed-state post (Biden Autopen, ts_115168717159863645) is instructive: even when invoking political scandals, the framing is grandiose rather than aggrieved. The ALL CAPS delivery and superlative chain ("not as big as Russia... but one of the BIGGEST, EVER!!!") reflect supply-seeking rather than genuine vulnerability.

### State Transitions

No meaningful state transitions occurred. The day operates on a single emotional frequency — confident, expansive, and prosecutorial — from first post to last.

---

## II. Theme Analysis: Crime Saturation

### Dominant Theme: Crime and Public Safety

An extraordinary **9 of 16 posts** (56%) directly address crime, public safety, or law enforcement. This constitutes the day's organizing obsession:

| Post | Crime Angle |
|------|-------------|
| ts_115168503787643723 | NYC is safer under Trump |
| ts_115168778764944128 | D.C. is a "safe zone" |
| ts_115168933967621443 | Chicago weekend violence statistics |
| ts_115169686997623003 | Cartel cruise crackdown |
| ts_115169689479915977 | Meth chemical seizure |
| ts_115169709094964283 | Hannity: Democrats are "pro-crime" |
| ts_115169727944499112 | "Why are Democrats rooting against America?" |
| ts_115169843962994945 | Caldwell book on violent crime |
| ts_115170494005487289 | Ukrainian refugee attack in Charlotte |

The theme obsession is structurally significant. This is not organic posting — it is a **coordinated messaging day** built around a single proposition: *Trump delivers safety; Democrats deliver crime.* The progression moves from abstract claims (NYC safe, D.C. safe) through statistics (Chicago) and operational victories (cartel, meth) to emotional payload (Ukrainian refugee attack). The Caldwell book promotion and Hannity quote serve as third-party validation nodes in the same narrative chain.

### Secondary Theme: Military/Hemispheric Dominance

Three posts project military power: the Monroe Doctrine article (ts_115169645272594518), the "Department of War is back" headline (ts_115169695509089058), and the cartel crackdown (ts_115169686997623003). These overlap with the crime theme, blurring the line between domestic law enforcement and military projection.

### Tertiary Theme: Cultural Enforcement

The Tom Hanks/West Point post (ts_115168758828419703) and the "Democrats rooting against America" post (ts_115169727944499112) operate in cultural-war territory, framing political opponents as anti-American rather than merely wrong.

### Theme Evolution

The day's arc moves from **positive claims** (morning: cities are safe) → **crisis framing** (midday: Chicago violence) → **operational amplification** (early afternoon: military/cartel cluster) → **emotional exploitation** (late afternoon: Ukrainian refugee) → **cooldown** (evening: sports congratulations). This is a classic political messaging structure: establish the premise, present the problem, show action, deliver the emotional hook, and close on an unrelated positive note.

---

## III. Escalation Analysis

No classic rage spiral is detected. The day's two rage-flagged posts — ts_115169727944499112 (0.50) and ts_115170494005487289 (0.60) — arrive in the afternoon but are separated by nearly 3.5 hours and embedded in different contexts. The overall intensity profile shows a gradual build:

- **Morning (7:45–8:55 AM EDT)**: Low-to-moderate intensity (0.15–0.65)
- **Afternoon cluster (12:35–12:56 PM EDT)**: Moderate intensity with rapid posting (0.05–0.60)
- **Late afternoon peak (4:11 PM EDT)**: Highest intensity of the day (0.75)
- **Evening cooldown (7:23 PM EDT)**: Low intensity (0.15)

The intensity arc is **gradual and controlled**, peaking with the Ukrainian refugee post — the day's most emotionally charged and rhetorically sophisticated entry. This is not a rage spiral driven by emotional dysregulation; it is a **constructed escalation** designed to build toward the Charlotte crime narrative as the day's centerpiece.

---

## IV. Rapid-Fire Cluster Analysis

Between **12:35 and 12:56 PM EDT** (16:35–16:56 UTC), Trump posted **7 times in 21 minutes**:

- ts_115169645272594518 (Monroe Doctrine article)
- ts_115169686997623003 (Cartel crackdown headline)
- ts_115169689479915977 (Meth seizure headline)
- ts_115169695509089058 (Department of War headline)
- ts_115169697443414290 (Museum of the Bible link)
- ts_115169709094964283 (Hannity quote)
- ts_115169727944499112 (Democrats rooting against America)

Five of these seven posts have authorship scores ≤0.30, indicating likely aide-driven amplification. The cluster functions as a curated media dump — headlines and links pushed in rapid succession — followed by a single Trump-voiced post (authorship 0.70) that delivers the emotional thesis: "WHY ARE DEMOCRATS ROOTING AGAINST AMERICA?" This pattern suggests a staff-driven amplification burst capped by a personal editorial.

---

## V. Contradiction Detection

### Contradiction 1: Safety Claims vs. Crime Epidemic

- **Claim 1** (ts_115168503787643723): "NYC is becoming safer under Trump."
- **Claim 2** (ts_115168778764944128): "Washington, D.C. IS A SAFE ZONE"
- **Contradicting claim** (ts_115170494005487289): A Ukrainian refugee is "brutally ambushed" in Charlotte, NC — under Trump's presidency.

Trump manages this contradiction through geographic blame-shifting: cities run by cooperative officials become safe; cities with Democratic governors remain dangerous. However, Charlotte's attack occurred under federal jurisdiction he claims to control, and the post's own framework ("NO ONE IN AMERICA SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH THIS VIOLENCE!!!") implicitly acknowledges nationwide failure.

**Severity: Minor** — The contradiction is managed through the cooperative-vs-resistant city framework, though the universalizing rhetoric undermines it.

### Contradiction 2: Federal Savior vs. Ongoing Violence

- **Claim 1** (ts_115168778764944128): D.C. became a safe zone "IN JUST A MATTER OF WEEKS"
- **Claim 2** (ts_115168933967621443): "approximately 50 people were killed" in Chicago in recent weeks

Both claims exist under the same presidency. The resolution is again blame displacement, but the simultaneous claims of transformative federal power and helplessness without local cooperation are in structural tension.

**Severity: Minor**

---

## VI. Hypomanic Indicators

| Metric | Value | Assessment |
|--------|-------|------------|
| Post count | 16 | Moderate (baseline ~12-20) |
| Time span (EDT) | 7:45 AM – 7:23 PM | Normal waking hours |
| First post | 7:45 AM EDT | Within normal range |
| Last post | 7:23 PM EDT | Not late |
| Max gap | ~2h 46m (4:11 PM – 7:23 PM) | Normal |
| Min gap | 0 min (several simultaneous) | Cluster-driven, not manic |
| Rapid cluster | 7 posts in 21 minutes | Elevated but aide-driven |

**Assessment**: The rapid-fire cluster is the only anomaly, and authorship scores strongly suggest aide involvement rather than personal hypomanic output. The overall posting rhythm is within normal parameters. **No hypomanic episode indicated.**

---

## VII. Event Correlation

### Responded To

| Event | Response Posts | Reaction Type |
|-------|---------------|---------------|
| Museum of the Bible speech | ts_115169697443414290 | Amplifying |
| Supreme Court ICE ruling | Indirect (crime/safety theme alignment) | Amplifying |

### Not Responded To (Significant Silences)

| Event | Significance |
|-------|-------------|
| **Carroll defamation verdict upheld** | The 2nd Circuit's rejection of Trump's appeal is a concrete legal loss. Complete silence is psychologically notable — consistent with narcissistic avoidance of ego-threatening information. The day's saturated crime messaging may partially function as displacement activity. |
| French government collapse | No geopolitical commentary. Low personal relevance. |
| We Are America March | Anti-Trump protest march begins. Silence may reflect deliberate non-amplification strategy. |

The Carroll verdict silence is the day's most psychologically revealing absence. On a day of 16 posts — many of them low-effort headline shares — zero bandwidth was allocated to a significant legal setback. This is consistent with the narcissistic defense of **selective reality construction**: the external world is curated to present only grandiose-compatible information.

---

## VIII. Danger Assessment

Six posts register at elevated or higher danger levels:

| Post | Danger | Primary Concern |
|------|--------|----------------|
| ts_115168758828419703 | Elevated | Institutional pressure, individual targeting (Hanks) |
| ts_115168778764944128 | Elevated | Menacing ambiguity ("Who's Next???") |
| ts_115168933967621443 | Elevated | Citizen mobilization, federalism override rhetoric |
| ts_115169645272594518 | **High** | Military eliminationism, stochastic terrorism criteria |
| ts_115169695509089058 | Elevated | "Department of War" militarism normalization |
| ts_115170494005487289 | Elevated | Crime exploitation, political enemy targeting |

### Stochastic Terrorism Pattern

The Monroe Doctrine amplification (ts_115169645272594518) meets established stochastic terrorism criteria: identified targets (Maduro, Tren de Aragua, cartel networks), articulated grievances, endorsed lethal action ("blow them up"), and broadcast to a mass audience. The $50M bounty on a sitting foreign head of state is near-unprecedented in modern U.S. practice. While the targets are foreign rather than domestic, the pattern of identifying enemies and endorsing eliminationist solutions to a mass audience is structurally consistent with stochastic terrorism dynamics.

The Ukrainian refugee post (ts_115170494005487289) approaches but does not cross the stochastic terrorism threshold — it names a political enemy (Governor Cooper) and attributes blood to Democratic policies, but stops short of endorsing action against specific individuals.

---

## IX. Cognitive Assessment

### Markers Observed
- **Superlative inflation**: "one of the BIGGEST, EVER!!!" — characteristic inability to proportionalize
- **Hyperbolic comparison chains**: Biden Autopen ranked against Russia hoax and 2020 election — grandiose scaling
- **Rhetorical questions as assertions**: "WHY ARE DEMOCRATS ROOTING AGAINST AMERICA?" — presupposes the conclusion
- **Numerical precision as credibility device**: "6 people were murdered... 12 others were shot... approximately 50 people were killed" — statistical framing that may inflate actual figures

### Complexity Trend: Stable

Posts show consistent rhetorical complexity throughout the day. The aide-authored posts (Chicago, Ukrainian refugee) are structurally sophisticated. Trump-voiced posts maintain his baseline rhetorical patterns without notable degradation. The one ALL CAPS post (Biden Autopen) shows characteristic stylistic markers without cognitive concern.

---

## X. Narrative Arc: Stable

The day unfolds as a **single, coherent narrative** — arguably the most thematically coordinated day in recent memory. The crime-safety messaging dominates from first post to last, with supporting themes (military, cultural enforcement) reinforcing rather than disrupting the throughline. There is no contamination sequence (no victory-to-victimhood shift), no redemption arc (no setback to overcome), and no chaos (all posts serve the same narrative). The arc is **stable and controlled**, suggesting either deliberate message discipline or a day when Trump's psychological fixation and his political team's strategy happened to align.

The closing sports post (Nick Bosa congratulations) is the only thematic outlier and serves the standard cooldown function — a return to normalcy signaling after hours of prosecutorial messaging.

---

## XI. Authorship Distribution

Average authorship confidence across all 16 posts is **0.35**, indicating a heavily aide-assisted day. Only three posts exceed 0.70 authorship confidence:

- ts_115168717159863645 (Biden Autopen): 0.90 — likely personally authored
- ts_115168758828419703 (Tom Hanks/West Point): 0.70 — likely personally authored
- ts_115169727944499112 (Democrats rooting against America): 0.70 — likely personally authored

The remaining 13 posts are predominantly staff-generated or lightly edited amplifications. This reinforces the interpretation of the day as a coordinated messaging operation rather than spontaneous emotional output.

### Narrative

A single-theme day organized around crime-and-safety messaging. Morning posts established the thesis (cities are safer under Trump), midday posts presented the crisis (Chicago violence, cartel operations), an afternoon rapid-fire cluster amplified operational victories, and the emotional peak arrived with the exploitation of a violent attack on a Ukrainian refugee. The day closed with a sports congratulations cooldown. No narrative disruptions, no defensive retreats — a controlled, coordinated broadcast.

### Dominant themes

- Crime and public safety (1 post)
- Military and hemispheric dominance (1 post)
- Cultural enforcement and anti-Democrat framing (1 post)
- Celebrations and maintenance (1 post)

### Contradictions that day

- [ts_115168503787643723](https://trump.fm/post/ts_115168503787643723): NYC is becoming safer under Trump
  vs. [ts_115170494005487289](https://trump.fm/post/ts_115170494005487289): A refugee was brutally ambushed in Charlotte; NO ONE IN AMERICA SHOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH THIS VIOLENCE
- [ts_115168778764944128](https://trump.fm/post/ts_115168778764944128): Washington D.C. is a safe zone in just a matter of weeks
  vs. [ts_115168933967621443](https://trump.fm/post/ts_115168933967621443): Approximately 50 people killed and hundreds shot in Chicago in recent weeks

### Cognitive concerns

- Superlative inflation — inability to proportionalize significance (Biden Autopen ranked among 'biggest ever')
- Hyperbolic comparison chains linking unrelated scandals to inflate perceived importance
- Rhetorical questions deployed as presupposed conclusions ('WHY ARE DEMOCRATS ROOTING AGAINST AMERICA?')
- Numerical precision used as credibility device with possible figure inflation (Chicago statistics)
- Universalizing rhetoric ('NO ONE IN AMERICA') contradicts simultaneous safety claims

> I have seen the horrific video of a beautiful, young Ukrainian refugee, who came to America to escape the vicious War in Ukraine, and was innocently riding the Metro in Charlotte, North Carolina, where she was brutally ambushed by a mentally deranged lunatic. The perpetrator was a well known career criminal, who had been previously arrested and released on CASHLESS BAIL in January, a total of 14 TIMES. What the hell was he doing riding the train, and walking the streets? Criminals like this need to be LOCKED UP. The blood of this innocent woman can literally be seen dripping from the killer's knife, and now her blood is on the hands of the Democrats who refuse to put bad people in jail, including Former Disgraced Governor and "Wannabe Senator" Roy Cooper. North Carolina, and every State, needs LAW AND ORDER, and only Republicans will deliver it! Additionally, where is the outrage from the Mainstream Media on this horrible tragedy? VOTE FOR MICHAEL WHATLEY FOR UNITED STATES SENATE, HE WON'T LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN!

> You know, they got this so slogan out, they say, if you want to get away with murder, kill them in D.C. That's a slogan, that's a street slogan. Every time I turn around, there's another shooting, there's a murder. In the district, they're killing and walking away with minimum time. See, D.C., they need everything that Trump is doing. I don't care what they say about him. Fix it. My name is Felicia Cook, and I've been in D.C. residence since I was born there in 1956. On April the 23rd, that's when Marty went missing. I went downstairs, and he wasn't there. I said, well, I'm going to call his job and see if he's been to work, because I know how excited he was about the job. And the people said it worked, that he had been to work. But the phone is kind of like I knew something was wrong. Meantime, my daughter coming up here every Friday, and she going through everything he had downstairs. And she found out his last conversation was with some girl he had met on Plenty of Fish. He went to visit her, and he never came back home. That's all he was doing was going on a date. That was it. He shot that boy seven times. He overkilled him, cold blood. He didn't give him a chance.

> Sean Hannity: "Democrats have exposed themselves as the pro-crime party."

**Video transcript** (9:01), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> And welcome to this special edition of Hannity, The Unhinged Left, the Democrats. They put politics over the public yet again. All week long, we saw example after example of this, Democrats are on the wrong side of every major single issue the country is facing right now. Now, despite President Trump's successful crackdown on crime in D.C., it's paying massive dividends. Left, they are resisting any and all efforts from President Trump to control crime in other cities like Chicago, like New York. For example, Labor Day weekend, Chicago, 58 people shot, 8 were killed. But still, the state's liberal leaders, they are refusing any and all opportunities to work with the president to make their cities safer. Instead, they spent the last week in full blown meltdown mode screaming about Donald Trump and his efforts to crack down on Chicago's crime, something they have failed miserably at, that's keeping people safe and secure. Now, take a look at their worst moments of the week. Take a look. If National Guard or other military troops are sent to, deployed to the city of Chicago, immediately go to court. Chicago will continue to have a violence problem as long as red states continue to hav… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_115169709094964283)

> For most of our country's history, the Bible was found in every classroom in the nation. Yet in many schools today, students are instead indoctrinated with anti-religious propaganda, and some are even punished for their religious beliefs, and very, very strongly punished. It's ridiculous. Joining us this morning is Hannah Allen from Honeygrove, Texas. A few years ago, Hannah organized a group of her classmates to pray for an injured peer. The school principal declared that Hannah's generous act of love was prohibited from taking place in front of the other students. To support students like Hannah, I'm pleased to announce this morning that the Department of Education will soon issue new guidance protecting the right to prayer in our public schools, and it's total protection.

> "DEPARTMENT OF WAR IS BACK, AND SO IS AMERICA"

> We won the First World War, we won the Second World War, we won everything before that and in between, and then we decided to go, "Well, can we change the name to Department of Defense?" So we're going Department of War. We beat the British, French, Mexicans, Germans twice, and the Japanese. Then we changed the name to Defense and fought to ties like soccer for the next 75 years. In the Cold War, we played D. Now we have to bring back what worked. We're going back on offense. This name change is not just about renaming, it's about restoring. Words matter. It's restoring, as you've guided us to, Mr. President, restoring the warrior ethos, restoring victory and clarity as an end state, restoring intentionality to the use of force. The War Department is going to fight decisively, not endless conflicts. This War Department, Mr. President, just like America, is back. It couldn't come at a better time. The Chinese military parade was a wake-up call. 60-foot submarine drones, hypersonic missiles, robot jets that can intercept airstrikes. Putin, Kim, and Modi even got a look at China's 600 nuclear warheads. Modi used to be our boy, but Trump said he went to the dark side.

**Video transcript** (1:46), transcribed automatically, so names and numbers may be wrong. Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his:

> And in a historic move yesterday, a tremendous blow to the Sinaloa cartel, my office, along with the Homeland Security, Customs and Border Patrol, FBI, DEA, we intercepted a half-a-billion dollars' worth of precursors to methamphetamines that were sent from Shanghai, China, intended to go to the Sinaloa cartel in Mexico. We intercepted on the high seas, brought these 1,300 barrels enough to fill 24 18-wheelers. We brought them into the Port of Houston. Now, unfortunately, every day, there are millions of dollars made by these cartels, and the Sinaloa, of course, one of the most brutal, dangerous cartels around. But President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in designating these cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, is giving our office, giving the attorney general, Pam Bondi and the rest of us the ability to take down these operations sooner and to make sure that we are literally disrupting the supply chain. Now, there are all these compounds in Mexico in geographical areas controlled by the Sinaloa that were waiting for these drugs. And although it's worth a half-a-billion in Houston, once they move this stuff up to New York and other places, it's worth a lot more.… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_115169689479915977)

> The president annihilated a cocaine speedboat operated by the cartel last night. They never saw it coming. America's been getting poisoned by drugs and gangs for decades. The old way of doing business didn't work, so Trump flipped the script. The United States has long, for many, many years, established intelligence that allow us to interdict and stop drugboats. We did that. And it doesn't work. Interdiction doesn't work because these drug cartels, what they do is they know they're going to lose, you know, 2% of their cargo. They bake it into their economics. What will stop them is when you blow them up, when you get rid of them. America never really fought the war on drugs until now. Now, I'm not predicting victory. America loves to get high. But if they're going to kill our people with narcotics, we're going to kill their people with missiles. We knew exactly who was in that boat. We knew exactly what they were doing, and we knew exactly who they represented. You're not going to allow this kind of activity. You're poisoning our people. We've got incredible assets, and they are gathering in the region. And so you want to try to traffic drugs? It's a new day.

This is thymarosol, which is labeled very toxic, has cumulative effects, can cause damage to the kidneys, to the respiratory system, skin, to the nervous system, specifically warns on here that it can cause reproductive and developmental toxicity, meaning that it can cause things like autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders. This is immensely toxic stuff, and this is what's in the vaccine. It's important to realize we're talking about a whole range of products. Vaccines are a big one because, of course, you're directly injecting it. For example, this is tetanus vaccine. This one expires, it's a little outdated now, in 2007. Here's the thymarosol, one to 10,000 is a preservative. Perhaps the biggest one in the US, at least for exposure to mercury, is the influenza vaccine. Influenza vaccine is now recommended for all pregnant women, all infants, all children, on a yearly basis, you're supposed to have that shot. Understand that thymarosol is not added at the end.

> How dare we lie cover up what we all knew. The Biden administration may go down in history as the most brazen constitutional fraud in American history. A Potemkin presidency fronted by a failing puppet with staffers behind the scenes pulling the strings. This is not political hyperbole. The American people saw it with their own eyes during the June 2024 debate. Numerous times Biden stood frozen behind the podium, mouth agape, eyes frozen and unblinking. When he did speak, his words were confused and disjointed. I said that night this is the most consequential presidential debate in history because it will result in one of the two candidates being removed from the ballot. That was exactly right. And following that debate, the Democrats recognized the collapse. They pulled out their knives and took out President Biden like Caesar on the Ides of March. For all of their strutting about, protesting that they support democracy. Not a one of them gave a damn about democracy when they pulled Biden off the ballot and dropped Kamala Harris in without a single Democrat primary voter voting for him. And you know what? Not a single Democrat is here today because not a single one of them gives a… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_115169122679953643)

During the pandemic, the government was skiving out money left and right. A nonprofit in Minnesota feeding our future got a quarter billion dollars to send food to needy kids. Sounds good, right? Here's the problem. Almost none of it was used for food. The Somali scammers blew our cash on real estate, cars, extravagant get trips. We have wire transfers that show thousands going to car dealerships. $160,000 went to some company in China. And a half a million was sent to Kenya to buy an apartment. A $500,000 apartment in Kenya is probably a palace. But our tax dollars weren't just used on goodies. The politicians got a taste too. Ilhan Omar got thousands of dollars in donations from some of the scammers. These guys weren't criminal masterminds. It was sloppy.

> So you called the judge's order just earlier today "patently unlawful" and said that it was an assault on democracy itself. Does that mean that the administration is ignoring this order and might you ignore future court orders that meet the criteria you laid out? The President of the United States and his administration reserve all rights under the Constitution to conduct national security operations in defense of the United States. The Alien Enemies Act, which was passed into law by the founding generation of this country, men like John Adams, was written explicitly to give the President the authority to repel an alien invasion of the United States. That is not something that a district court judge has any authority whatsoever to interfere with, to enjoin, to restrict, or to restrain any way. You can read the law yourself. There's not one clause in that law that makes it subject to judicial review, let alone district court review. So Steven, when you say that this person has no authority at all, this is how our system works. It starts with these judges and then continues up. At what point does it become, in your view, legal for the justice system to be looking at this and making a… (full transcript: https://trump.fm/post/ts_115169119847763012)

> The U.S. Constitution vests executive power in a single person, the President. At the founding, the President exercised the executive power through only a small group of trusted advisers and personnel. In fact, President Washington had a four-member cabinet. Today, the President directs a Leviathan executive branch with 15 cabinet departments and at least 4 million full-time executive branch employees. The executive branch proliferation has a single source of democratic legitimacy. That by order of U.S. Constitution's Article 2, the President is both elected by the American people and vested with the executive power, all of it. Traditionally, the President takes positive actions and authenticates those actions through his signature. His signature is required for the most significant actions he may undertake, to sign an executive order, to take any action invested in him by the Constitution, as in granting a pardon, and to take the most important action of all, to sign a bill into law. In all these cases, the President's signature is itself the protection of democratic principle. When the President signs, he communicates his assent and endorsement of the action he takes.

Now, don't get me wrong, I was raised to vote Democrat down the ballot, so when I first started I would say things like, "I'm a Republican, but I'm not a conservative." And now I know all too well I am a full-fledged, hardcore conservative, and I'm proud of it. I mean, my favorite saying is, "I was born black, not Democrat."

> I'm Christina Owayo in Dallas and here are your top stories. Democrats in Michigan are caught up in a $5 billion fraud scheme that was siphoning taxpayer dollars. The scheme was uncovered by House Republicans. The accusations which have sparked outrage center on the discovery of more than 4,000 fake phantom jobs allegedly used to siphon taxpayer dollars into non-existent programs, questionable gender surgeries for prisoners, and dubious arts and culture grants. House GOP investigators claim to have identified the thousands of fake job positions created to justify budget allocations that never materialized into actual employment. Critics argue this was a deliberate tactic to funnel public money back to Democrats bypassing accountability and oversight. This as multiple claims come in over fiscal mismanagement under Democrat control led by Governor Gretchen Whitmer with the Michigan state budget ballooning to more than $82 billion. That's the largest in state history. That's what you need to know in Dallas, Christina Owayo. (upbeat music)

> 95% of Americans support this. I sometimes feel like an adjudicator in this job, so I guess I'll be the one to say that we've asked nicely for leadership to put this on the floor. If they don't, I'm saying timeline is end of month. There is a discharge petition prepared and ready to go. I think it's very clear where the White House stands on this, I don't speak for the White House, but the President has stated that he supports banning this because it is corrupt. Frankly, the fact that members are getting, what, plus 600% returns on their investments is wrong. But more importantly, how could you ever be expected to represent your constituents when you're clearly worried about your pocketbook? And so that's why we're here today. Again, thank you to Representative Burchitt because he helped work on that discharge, but we are very hopeful that this will be brought to the floor in regular order. And we look forward collectively to deliver this one to the American people.

> (upbeat music) - I've heard so many great things about the Park Place. They love the country, they love this area. Doug, could you say a few words, please? - The world has changed. The President of the United States has your back. It's not just sending a message to those here in our nation's capital, but it's sending a message to the rest of the country and it's sending a message to the rest of the world. - This is Liberation Day in D.C. and we're taking it back. (upbeat music)
