On November 11, 1918, the guns of World War I fell silent. For nearly 2 million American Soldiers still in France, the fighting was finally over. But their journey home would help shape a tradition that continues more than a century later: Veterans Day. (1/6)🧵

🚨 NOW: Incoming House Minority Whip Rep. Tom Emmer (R) just WENT OFF "To our colleagues on the left, enjoy this honeymoon phase because come January 3, 2027, you will REGRET EVER putting your name on a ballot." "House Republicans will put forth an agenda that speaks directly to the American people, policies that actually lower the price of goods, increase wages, create affordable housing, and give every American the opportunity to build their American dream." 🇺🇸 "This Republican leadership team will expose the Democrats' lies and show the American people their true colors as the radical communists that they are!" "We will expose every empty promise that they made to voters. We will expose Democrats' economic agenda that will make housing, food, gas, and healthcare MORE expensive." Good, because AMERICANS FIRST is the only way to win in 2 years from now! We have MANY seats to flip back January 3 is when the new Congress is sworn in and Democrats take control of the House easily. Republicans still hold the White House and President Trump's veto pen. Nothing gets past Trump's desk without him!

🚨 JUST IN: Senate Republicans just passed a resolution promising to use every one of their last 54 days. The "sense of the conference" vows to confirm every judicial and executive nominee the conference approves and do "everything humanly possible to pass a reconciliation bill before Jan. 3." The Senate is now expected to stay in town instead of leaving for Veterans Day. Words are cheap. Votes count. We're watching.

SEDITION: Senator Slotkin traveled to Hungary to learn techniques to use LAWFARE to oust the legitimate government. Democrats are planning to bring fascist methods to America.

Reiff’s Overseas Reform Experience, USAID Ecosystem, Undermining U.S. Judiciary Legitimacy. "Reiff, an Obama-era USAID staff member who was later fired under the Trump administration, was previously involved in the Georgia Rose Revolution." Danielle M. Reiff’s May 2025 podcast remarks illustrate a pattern of selectively framing around judicial cases inaccurately. She was part of a leadership summit in Arizona over a year ago coordinating with other leaders to place doubt on our current co-equal, three-branches of government. In this video, she actively sows doubt in the arrest and conviction of a Wisconsin judge. In discussing judicial reform from her USAID career, she references the Georgia Rose Revolution in which “the judiciary was really controlled by the president and his party and wasn’t necessarily delivering justice to all,” Reiff's narrative. Reiff, as a USAID staff member, was tasked to help “build systems so that the judiciary could deliver justice… fairly.” In this podcast she pivoted to the Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan case as an example of “information chaos,” asserting that the common narrative of the judge illegally helping a migrant evade ICE was disinformation. According to Reiff’s version, both the agent and the migrant were directed together to the chief judge’s office and rode the elevator jointly—a neutral resolution. This does not match the facts established by the federal indictment, trial evidence, and conviction. On April 18, 2025, Dugan confronted ICE agents at the Milwaukee County Courthouse, told them their administrative warrant for Eduardo Flores-Ruiz (an illegal re-entrant appearing on misdemeanor battery charges) was insufficient, directed them to the chief judge’s office, and then led the defendant and his attorney out a private jury door. Agents arrested him after a foot chase outside. A jury convicted Dugan of felony obstruction in December 2025 (acquitting her of the lesser concealment charge). She resigned and was sentenced in July 2026 to a $5,000 fine with no prison time. Her podcast account presents a sanitized version that contradicts the sequence that produced the felony conviction. This fits the broader USAID career of Reiff being involved in governmental transitions and institutional reform abroad, including the 2012 Georgia parliamentary elections. There, as part of USAID’s democracy assistance portfolio, she contributed to efforts around civil society, women’s political leadership, election monitoring, and institutional strengthening during the first ballot-box transfer of power from Saakashvili’s UNM to Ivanishvili’s Georgian Dream. That transition included constitutional shifts toward a parliamentary system and was assessed by Western monitors as reflecting voter will, though it also initiated lasting polarization and later prosecutions of prior officials. Since the early 1990s, USAID has spent roughly 1.9 billion dollars in Georgia on democratic institutions, elections, the rule of law, and civil society. Much of the political and electoral work was channeled through partners that include the International Republican Institute and the National Democratic Institute. These efforts backed multiparty competition, proportional representation, parliamentary accountability, and an executive accountable to the legislature. Georgia originally operated under a stronger presidential or semi-presidential system in which the president held significant executive power and was directly elected. Through constitutional amendments adopted in 2017–2018 under the Georgian Dream government, the country shifted to a parliamentary republic. Direct presidential elections were ended, the presidency was reduced to a largely ceremonial role, and real executive authority moved to a prime minister chosen by and accountable to the unicameral parliament, which itself moved toward fully proportional representation. USAID, along with partners such as the International Republican Institute and National Democratic Institute, provided long-term funding and technical support for elections, multiparty competition, parliamentary development, and civil-society groups that advocated institutional reforms aligned with Western democratic models. While the formal changes were enacted by Georgia’s own parliament, these external programs actively promoted and sustained the environment in which the parliamentary system was adopted and consolidated. These are the same parliamentary features Georgia adopted in its 2017 and 2018 reforms and that the DSA now advocates for the United States. In short, the parliamentary model in Georgia was shaped and sustained with heavy United States involvement via USAID and related democracy assistance. The DSA’s domestic proposal mirrors those institutional forms, while Georgia’s current leadership treats the foreign funding that helped produce them as illegitimate interference. Similar USAID work occurred in places such as Uganda, Colombia, South Sudan, and Sri Lanka: contexts in which “democracy promotion” often included judicial capacity-building, rule-of-law programs, and support for transitions framed as countering authoritarian or party-controlled institutions. In the current former-USAID ecosystem (as described in DataRepublican’s October 2026 “Democracy Files” reporting and the 2025 Daily Caller/NOTUS coverage of DemocracyAID), these skills are being applied domestically. If successful at scale, this approach could weaken U.S. judicial independence by eroding public confidence in courts through selective or inaccurate framing of high-profile cases, while advancing institutional changes that subordinate judges to a nominal role other than a co-equal branch of government. Judicial commentary of the type Reiff offered, which recharacterizes a convicted obstruction case as media distortion while emphasizing reform of party-controlled courts, functions as one such role by shaping public understanding of judicial legitimacy and independence. If successful, these groups could help weaken the third branch of government by supporting the appointment of ideologically biased judges who prioritize political outcomes over impartial application of the law. In short, Reiff’s inaccurate Dugan narrative and her Georgia-style judicial reform experience illustrate how former USAID democracy practitioners can shape domestic discourse and institutional pressure within the broader ecosystem, with potential effects that align with efforts to reduce judicial independence rather than preserve it.

Y’all are going to have to forgive me. I’m still not back to normal brain capacity after all of the craziness the last 3 weeks. Somehow my last post didn’t have the video attached and the whole post was still in my drafts. Idk what happened. @DataRepublican, don’t forget the unnamed “B”: BREAKING….and Beliefs, but that’s an entirely different post for a different day. Check the comments for the original 8 min montage of clips @iamlisalogan and I posted in November of last year embedded in a thread. Check it out. 👇🏼
