Segment 1 6:40am
(Run the winning sounder)
This is going to be another week of shows in which-pretty much every segment-is really going to be a ‘winning’ segment.... given how fast president trump and his team are moving on a lot of their campaign promises....
And so-I’ve decided to use the winning segments to highlight some of the smaller victories and ‘wins’ that you listeners, otherwise, might not hear about.
After all-that was the original intent of the winning segments back in trump’s first term: he and his team were racking up all these important and consequential victories behind the scenes that the MSM never wanted to report on and even most people on the conservative side of the aisle were ignoring
And so-yes- early on-there are going to be some big wins that everyone’s going to know about- like on Thursday and Friday of last week ice rounded up about a thousand illegal criminals-including 25 dangerous Latin gang members- and deported them.
That’s a win.
But fewer people will hear that: by the end of his first week in office- trump’s deputies at homeland security were already hanging gates and installing new panels of border wall to fill some of the gaps that Biden intentionally left open when he halted construction.
That’s a win.
Here’s one that I absolutely love- that got no attention: on Friday, Trump’s new Department of Education announced:
To be clear: these were perfectly reasonable and rational reactions to some of our public school libraries being found to have inappropriate books in them: either because the content of them was borderline pornographic- or was something that ‘schools’ had no business teaching- or in some instances- simply because the books were inappropriate for the age of the student in that school- for example: grade schoolers or middle schoolers- who weren’t mentally or emotionally prepared for the material.
This wasn’t book banning. This was a community simply reviewing the content that it felt was appropriate for its children and acting accordingly.
In some instances-they got push back from the activist left- who have some members who seem to believe their ideologies, their lifestyles, or even their kinks and depravities- need to be taught to children and/or normalized by society.
And so-
Being total patsies for the activist left-Biden’s regime created a federal office to identify and attack any schools that were removing inappropriate books.
Killing off Biden’s office is ‘k-12 porn and kink’....is a huge win.

The next win I touched on briefly last week, so I will only do so again, for a different audience:
That’s nothing but more activist alarmism: this is a very reasonable pause. The 90-day review- for Rubio and the trump team to -first- see where all our current foreign aid is flowing-
And second-what it’s being ‘sent out’ for? What is the mission?
Is the mission- clean water? Fine. They’ll release the aide.
Is the mission- teaching LGBTIQQ culture in Tanzania?
Then-aide denied.
This is all Trump and his team are doing, and shouldn’t our leaders be doing this more often? Just during ‘good government’?
Wouldn’t it be reasonable to occasionally review-in a more organized way- where our foreign aid is going and what it’s funding?
This is all Trump and Rubio’s pause is doing here-and it’s a ‘win’.
Also- our media, here, shouldn’t act as if global aide organizations are the ones who get to be upset- or get to be the ones to make the calls-for where ‘our’ aide goes!
Well, that will all be determined, won’t it? And if done properly- more US aid will go toward those very important missions- and less will go toward forwarding the leftist agenda, globally.
The international aid programs should be happy about that, you’d think.
Because our US aide-should be going toward many of these very good causes- and it shouldn’t be going toward ‘teaching intersectionality’ in Uganda or funding drag queen story hour in Guatemala.
And eliminating that waste is a win.
(play the sounder)
I also consider this a ‘Trump win’: CNN having to fire 200 people and CBS firing their most visible and vocal trump hater, Norah O’Donnell.
Some of you might have missed these moves Friday:
But all of these news outlets not only acted as rabid attack dogs on Donald trump in term one-they then all happily turned into Biden protectors and gas lighters- during the most corrupt and dishonest presidential era in American history.
Our so-called ‘fourth estate’. These longtime so-called news outlets- became the propagandist wing of the democrat party and the activist left and literally contributed to the corruption and gaslighting of the last 4 years.
There can be no ‘coming back’ from that. They ‘are what they are, now’ and if outlets like CNN and MSNBC and the wash post are going to continue to exist-
Well-they are going to continue to exist as the leftist, propagandist rags that they are. If they can gather a following and pay their bills and continue to operate that way, then they’ll continue to exist. If they can’t- they won’t.
But as I’ve said for many years now: CNN can’t reinvent itself with the same staff and the same call letters. Nor can MSNBC. Or the wash post, etc.
If the brand is a stain... You can’t revive the brand with a little tweaking.
And seeing them plow under....is also...’winning’ for the rest of us.

Segment 2 7:10am
(Play winning music)
Could there be a better example of how Donald Trump is a -very-different president-
Then the about-face he got the president of Columbia to do over the weekend?
Most people probably missed this story because it played out on Sunday, when we were otherwise distracted with playoff football and family time-
But- what happened is: the Columbian government was refusing to take its illegal aliens back.
This is going to be a problem with other countries, too. At least initially: one problem with illegal immigration and deportation that has festered forever-is that- unless the home country’s govt agrees to take them back- we can’t get rid of them. We can’t forcibly drop them off - or parachute them in- and so- they end up staying there.
This is the game Columbia’s president was going to play: he refused to allow two plane loads of illegals to land in Columbia and be off-loaded.
That had Donald Trump getting on the phone and threatening tariffs on Columbian goods and other sanctions if he, the Columbian, president, really wanted to play it this way.
Trump put out a post on truth social detailing the sanctions.
It read:
Now- this next part was great: -there was just enough time for the trump critics and the MSM leftists to ‘lose their minds’ over what a terrible move this was-and how trump’s only punishing Americans because coffee and cut flowers were going to skyrocket in price due to the new tariffs-
And no kidding- oak and the other dimwit dems in congress were trying to list ‘Columbian goods’ that we needed….and coffee was the big one…
But. But….do you know that we get a lot of our flowers imported from Columbia…and…and….d so, about an hour after the Columbian president did an immediate-and globally embarrassing- ‘about face’.....trump’s
Now- this next part was great: -there was just enough time for the trump critics and the MSM leftists to ‘lose their minds’ over what a terrible move this was-and how trump’s only punishing Americans because coffee and cut flowers were going to skyrocket in price due to the new tariffs-
And no kidding- oak and the other dimwit dems in congress were trying to list ‘Columbian goods’ that we needed….and coffee was the big one…
But. But….do you know that we get a lot of our flowers imported from Columbia…and…and….
And so, there’s this typical anti-Trump backlash for about an hour or two… and then…. like magic…it’s announced that president Petro would love! To take those illegal thugs back, and you know what?
He’s even willing to send his private presidential plane here to america….to help transport them back home.
Honest to God: Columbia’s president did a complete flip-flop. It was awesome.
There was just enough time to have the hair-on-fire outrage start building on social media about what a stupid bully Donald trump is….and how he’s only going to harm Americans…and Columbia’s president caved.
And of course he did.
Because US aid and US exports are the lifeblood of that- and virtually every other south American country.
The tariff threat, alone: we’ll start at 25 percent of the cost of the export-then jump it to 50 percent…. We’ll implement a travel ban for your scummy socialist family and Columbian diplomats…. etc.
Within hours the guy caves…proving…. virtually every country on the globe ‘needs us’ far more than we need them. And genuinely-
It’s about time some of them are reminded of that.
Global bullying isn’t a great ‘tool’ to have in the tool kit, but sometimes, it’s a necessary one. And if this country’s diplomacy has suffered from ‘anything’ over the last 4 decades …it’s that we don’t stand up for ourselves-
Or- put another way: Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Biden-let the rest of the globe take advantage of our generous nature and our ‘short fuse.’
We, as ‘the global superpower’ have allowed our benevolent nature and our desire to ‘be friends with everyone’ including evil regimes like Iran and China…to allow our country to be taken advantage of. Even on what should be simple things like this: we’ve got a bunch of thugs who somehow got out of ‘your jails’ and ended up in ‘our country’...and you’ll be damned right you’re taking them back.
And so, about an hour after the Columbian president did an immediate-and globally embarrassing- ‘about face’.....Trump’s white house put out this press release:
"The government of Colombia has agreed to all of president trump’s terms, including the unrestricted acceptance of all illegal aliens from Colombia returned from the United States, including on US military aircraft, without limitation or delay. Based on this agreement, the fully drafted tariffs and sanctions will be held in reserve, and not signed, unless Colombia fails to honor this agreement. The visa sanctions issued by the state department, and enhanced inspections from customs and border protection, will remain in effect until the first planeload of Colombian deportees is successfully returned. Today’s events make clear to the world that America is respected again. President trump will continue to fiercely protect our nation's sovereignty, and he expects all other nations of the world to fully cooperate in accepting the deportation of their citizens illegally present in the United States.
That, my friends, is a win. And an important win for this country. All celebrating aside, all lefty whining aside.
This is an important win of the sort that we wouldn’t have gotten under a democrat regime because our dem leaders are too soft and pathetic to ‘go there’. To use ‘u-s mite’ to our benefit…as any good leader should.
Also- don’t underestimate the ‘teachable moment’ we saw here: don’t underestimate the effect that trump’s move here is going to have on other countries whose leaders are reluctant or unwilling to take back their illegal aliens.
Trump’s team might have headed off several other ‘come to Jesus’ sort of showdowns like this with other leaders because of the way he made an example out of Columbia.
Trump and his team know that this same sort of showdown is coming with the leaders of Venezuela, El Salvador, and Guatemala, at least…and possibly a few more. These are countries whose leaders genuinely appear to have tried to empty their prisons-into this country- during the Biden regime…
And such a move cannot stand.
But this is a consequential ‘win’ for America, yesterday.
(play the sounder)
And since i have time- lets slip in this last-minute win, as well: the trump white house is officially announcing this morning that all u-s servicemen and women who were kicked out of our armed forces because they wouldn’t take the covid vaccination- will be reinstated.
This is over 8-thousand patriots who signed up for a volunteer army-and then were drummed out of it because president Biden decided that they needed to be forced- forced- to take a vaccine for a virus that was killing less than one percent of the people who got it- and- very importantly- was being effectively fought off by young, healthy people of the sort who make up the vast majority of our military members: people in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, who are in peak shape.
There was no need to-by god-force this vaccine onto members of our armed forces.
Biden did. It was a great injustice.
It’s now over three years later. Many, if not most, of those 8-thousand people will have ‘moved on’ to some other career, and so, i don’t know how many will rush back to rejoin the military- but president trump has now officially cleared the way for them to come back and resume their service to the country…if they so choose.
This is ‘righting a wrong’. Fixing an injustice. And it’s another pro-America win.
