John C. Wright's Journal

It is now ten days into the Trump Administration.

• Additional Measures to Combat Anti-Semitism

This measure is grossly misunderstood, as Alt-Right Jew-haters  and other trolls mistake it to be anti First Amendment. In effect, the EO allows the deportation of pro-Hamas student rioters, and restores to Jewish students the same Civil Rights protections currently afforded Blacks and other minorities. Reads in part:

Trump just FIRED 8,980 Active Duty & 5,727 Reserve Troops who identified as Transgender. The United States military now has a lot less mental illness. Don’t worry about shortages: Trump just hired back 8,000 discharged because of the unlawful Wu Han Red Death Flu Jab Mandate.

More winning. Long overdue.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has REVOKED General Mark Milley’s security detail and security clearance.

Hegseth is now planning on DEMOTING the General.

Hegseth also ordered the removal of all Pentagon portraits of Milley

• PROTECTING CHILDREN FROM CHEMICAL AND SURGICAL MUTILATION

Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions. This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end.

• REINSTATING SERVICE MEMBERS DISCHARGED UNDER THE MILITARY’S COVID-19 VACCINATION MANDATE

… [T]he Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of Homeland Security, as appropriate, shall take all necessary action permitted by law to:

(a)  make reinstatement available to all members of the military (active and reserve) who were discharged solely for refusal to receive the COVID-19 vaccine and who request to be reinstated;

(b)  enable those service members reinstated under this section to revert to their former rank and receive full back pay, benefits, bonus payments, or compensation; and

(c)  allow any service members who provide a written and sworn attestation that they voluntarily left the service or allowed their service to lapse according to appropriate procedures, rather than be vaccinated under the vaccine mandate, to return to service with no impact on their service status, rank, or pay.

Not tired of winning, no, but I am getting dizzy trying to keep track.
I am reminded of a scene in THE LAST UNICORN, where the gray-souled and morose King Haggard describes seeing the supernal beauty of a unicorn: “They fill me with joy. The first time I felt it, I thought I was going to die.”
You see, he was not used to joy.
He did not know what it was.
Likewise, for a conservative, having lost every battle, every skirmish, I do not know what victory is.
In politics, I am not used to joy.

Donald Trump posted at 1.28 PM on Social Media:

I was just informed that two repatriation flights from the United States, with a large number of Illegal Criminals, were not allowed to land in Colombia. This order was given by Colombia’s Socialist President Gustavo Petro, who is already very unpopular amongst his people. Petro’s denial of these flights has jeopardized the National Security and Public Safety of the United States, so I have directed my Administration to immediately take the following urgent and decisive retaliatory measures:

• • Emergency 25% tariffs on all goods coming into the United States. In one week, the 25% tariffs will be raised to 50%.
  • A Travel Ban and immediate Visa Revocations on the Colombian Government Officials, and all Allies and Supporters.
  • Visa Sanctions on all Party Members, Family Members, and Supporters of the Colombian Government.
  • Enhanced Customs and Border Protection Inspections of all Colombian Nationals and Cargo on national security grounds.
  • IEEPA Treasury, Banking and Financial Sanctions to be fully imposed.

These measures are just the beginning. We will not allow the Colombian Government to violate its legal obligations with regard to the acceptance and return of the Criminals they forced into the United States!
Donald Trump Truth Social Post 01:28 PM EST 01/26/25

Less than two hours later, Colombia’s President issued a response to President Trump, folding faster than penniless poker player with a pair of deuces.

“The Colombian Government, under the leadership of President Gustavo Petro, has arranged for the presidential plane to facilitate the dignified return of the compatriots who were to arrive in the country this morning from deportation flights.”

Okay, so I am getting tired. Even keeping a list of bullet points without links to original sources, I cannot keep up.

This is a Blitzkrieg of awesome. Shock and awe!

• Donald Trump signs an executive order allowing deportation of foreign students who express support for Hamas or Hezbollah.
• President Trump Fires 17 Inspectors General in Friday Night Purge. Many of these IGs, who are in a position to identify and clean up waste and abuse, have long histories of whitewashing reports and playing politics. Source: Gateway Pundit.
• President Trump signed an executive order to stop taxpayer dollars from being used to promote or fund elective abortions. The order rescinds the previous executive orders signed by President Puddin’head Biden that were in violation of the Hyde amendment.
• Trump lifts Biden ban on oil pipelines. construction of the Keystone XL can restart. OIL workers celebrating Trump’s victory. Drill, baby, drill. 
• President Trump’s Administration has located nearly 80,000 of the 300,000+ missing migrant children. Which means the Biden Administration could have found them at any time, and chose not to.

•  In the first 80 hours of DOGE operation, approx $420M of current/impending contracts have been cancelled. 2 leases have also been cancelled. Initial focus is mainly on DEI contracts and unoccupied buildings.
• The White House announced this morning that deportation flights have begun.
• FEMA is being shut down. Disaster relief will be returned to the states.

These merit their own entry

• Declassified the hitherto top secret documents surrounding the assassination of RFK, JFK, MLK. All conspiracy theories will now be proved or put to rest.
  Trump handed the signing pen to his aide and said “give that to RFK Jr”
• President Trump signs executive order officially banning the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).
• President Donald J. Trump grants pardons to 23 peaceful pro-life protesters prosecuted by the Biden administration over exercising their First Amendment rights.
• The House just passed H.R. 21, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. Now it goes to the Senate.

Honestly, I cannot keep up with all this winning. Let me at least report what others are reporting. This is from the pen of Charlie Kirk:

Day 3 of the Trump Administration is on the books. On his third day, President Trump:

• Completed the shutdown of all DEI offices in the government and placed all existing DEI employees on indefinite leave.
• Announced a new deployment of 1,500 active-duty troops to assist in securing the US-Mexico border.
• Received a commitment from the crown prince of Saudi Arabia to increase trade and investment with the U.S. by $600 billion.
• Ordered the Border Patrol to begin immediately deporting anybody caught crossing into America illegally, without a hearing, ending the insane Biden policy of catching illegal crossers only to then let them claim asylum and be released into America with a court date months or years in the future.
• Ordered a freeze on DOJ consent decrees with local police departments, which Biden and Obama used to shackle local police and prevent them from stopping crime. -Pardoned two D.C. police officers wrongfully convicted in a political show trial after a gang member they were pursuing fled into traffic and was hit by a car.
• Had the Defense Department commit to using military aircraft to assist CBP in deportation operation. For half a century, America has had Republican administrations filled with people terrified to fulfill their electoral mandates. That pattern has ended.
• Declassified the hitherto top secret documents surrounding the assassination of RFK, JFK, MLK. All conspiracy theories will now be proved or put to rest.
• President Trump signs executive order officially banning the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).

1458 days to go.

I am not tired of wining, but I cannot keep up with the news.

1. President Trump grants deportation authority for illegal immigrants to ATF, U.S. Marshals and DEA agents.  Many people deputized means many deportations.

2. President Trump has signed an executive order rescinding Lyndon Johnson’s EO 11246, which established affirmative action, and banning all federal contractors and publicly-funded universities from practicing race-based discrimination, including DEI.

3. President Trump has issued an executive order reinstating federal capital punishment.

Donald Trump has imposed a communications blackout across America’s federal health agencies, including the CDC, FDA, HHS, and NIH.

These agencies have been instructed to halt all external communications, such as publishing scientific reports, updating websites, and issuing health advisories.

The directive was issued suddenly and without prior notice.

My comment: bye-bye Bird Flu panic.
