Millions of undocumented on Social Security.
Unbelievable! Elon Musk uncovers a shocking social security scam involving non-citizens obtaining SSNs. This fraud must be stopped immediately, or our nation’s finances will crumble. This will drain our resources and push us towards bankruptcy!
In the below video, you see a surge in Social Security numbers issued to non-citizens—from 270,000 in 2021 to 2.1 million in 2024.

The texts did not include information about specific targets.
“Here Are the Attack Plans That Trump’s Advisers Shared on Signal,” Goldberg quoted from texts in which Hegseth specified types of U.S. military aircraft and the timing of recent airstrikes against Houthi militias in Yemen.
So from what Goldberg posted below as classified information, how is that classified, and how could you tell when it was going to happen and against who it was going to happen against?
“1215et: F-18s LAUNCH (1st strike package),” one of the texts says, referring to a type of military aircraft. “1345: ‘Trigger Based’ F-18 1st Strike Window Starts (Target Terrorist is @ his Known Location so SHOULD BE ON TIME) — also, Strike Drones Launch (MQ-9s).”

US miners eye copper comeback as demand rises.
This article is a reprint from a recent FOX article.
Herriman, UTAH – The demand for copper in the U.S. is set to double in the next 10 years – but the nation lacks the production to meet that demand unless steps are taken to ease restrictions on new mines.
President Donald Trump hopes to change this after signing an executive order on Thursday to increase American mineral production.
“The United States possesses vast mineral resources that can create jobs, fuel prosperity, and significantly reduce our reliance on foreign nations,” the order reads. “The United States was once the world’s largest producer of lucrative minerals, but overbearing Federal regulation has eroded our Nation’s mineral production.”

The order will focus on priority projects for minerals such as copper, uranium, potash and gold, among others. This is welcome news for the nation’s copper industry, which struggles to compete with the more relaxed mining regulations of other countries.
“We’ve got to create more mines. Open up some of those resources that we have right here in the U.S. and bring them online,” Clayton Walker, COO of Copper at Rio Tinto, the second-largest mining company in the world. “That then feeds the manufacturing, the folks that actually take that raw material and turn it into something usable the consumers can enjoy. So I feel like it’s just a critical path for making manufacturing again here in the U.S. It all starts at the mines with that raw material.”
Rio Tinto has been trying to open a new copper mine in Arizona for 17 years, dubbed the Resolution Copper mine. Officials say the mine could provide as much as 20% of the demand. But it’s run into roadblocks over the years, including land rights issues and environmental concerns.
“The challenge we have right now in the U.S., it takes about 29 years to get a mine permitted. And so I’m all for doing the right thing. And I think we have some of the best standards and highest standards in the world, and I’m all for that,” said Walker. “But we’ve got to figure out a way to bring those mines online a little faster than, say, 29 years.”

One way the permit process could be expedited: adding copper to the critical minerals list.
A critical mineral is defined by the Department of Energy as, “Any non-fuel mineral, element, substance, or material that the Secretary of Energy determines: (i) has a high risk of supply chain disruption; and (ii) serves an essential function in one or more energy technologies, including technologies that produce, transmit, store, and conserve energy.”
Adding copper to the list would ease restrictions on the production of copper, meaning Rio Tinto and other companies could open new copper mines quicker in the U.S.

“I think we need to make copper as a critical mineral. Not having it on the list is hurting us and keeping that valuable metal from getting those resources that are needed,” added Walker. “I think we got some great standards. We can do it better here than anywhere. We just need to do it a little faster.”
Rio Tinto’s Kennecott mine, just west of Salt Lake City, is the largest open-pit mine in the world, spanning 2.5 miles across and about 4,000 feet deep. At more than 120 years old, the mine has produced more copper than any other on the planet.

“The history of Kennecott is what keeps me here. I just am absolutely enamored with it. Twenty-five percent of the metal that the Allies used in World War II came from here,” Nate Foster, Kennecott’s managing director, said. “The Allies don’t win World War II without Kennecott.”
Kennecott also has the distinction of being one of only two locations in the country that can mine, smelt and refine their own copper. In comparison, China has over 50 copper smelters. This means that much of the copper that’s mined in the U.S. is shipped to other countries to be refined.
“We’re right now [the U.S.] is actually exporting over 400,000 tons of concentrate a year, which is going to other countries to be processed and then shipped back to us in another form,” says Walker.
The Kennecott smelter is an engineering marvel – at 1,215 feet, it’s the fourth-tallest chimney in the world.
“The fact that we have one of the cleanest smelters in the entire world makes it actually pretty unique,” added Foster. “And where we really think we’re well positioned with a very strategic asset with our smelter and the refinery to be able to help continue to… invest in America.”
Kennecott is a 365-day, 24-hours-a-day operation. Ninety-seven oversized haulers, capable of carrying 360 tons in a single load, work day and night to extract around 120,000 tons of copper ore per year, which accounts for 20% of the copper produced in the country.

The operation is all done in-house. After being mined and crushed, the ore makes its way via a 5-mile-long conveyor belt to the concentrator. It’s then turned into a sludge and piped to the smelter. From the smelter it becomes a 700-pound copper slab. After spending time in an electrolyte bath, it becomes two 300-pound copper plates – 99.99% pure copper.
“That is the highest quality that you’re going to find anywhere in the U.S.,” said Foster. “And when you look at the amount of emissions that we don’t have here in the U.S., as we produce to some of the highest environmental standards, other smelters across the world don’t have to comply with those same standards. So we pride ourselves on that.”
Trump has threatened to add a 25% tariff on imported copper, which accounts for 47% of the copper used in the U.S. While this could be a boon for U.S.-based copper mines, it’s a complicated issue for companies like Rio Tinto, which operates mines all over the world.
“We’re working hard with the administration to be part of that solution. And if you look at the way tariffs work, it’s all in how you set them up and structure them,” said Walker. “And if we can get those structured the right way, I think it will benefit the domestic supply.”

Winning. Norway puts out a warning for Transgenders traveling to the USA.
Norway and several other countries are warning folks about traveling to the good old USA. Norway especially points out that Transgenders may not be welcome.
I would like to see every country that welcomes the Transgenders to put out that warning. Being a transgender male or female is a personal choice. There is no science or medical proof behind it.
Then these folks tell small children that they’re not boys, but girls. They’re not girls, but boys. Sorry but that’s not normal.

This should be good. DOGE and Welfare Fraud.
SNAP, Social Security, and Medicaid, are next on the list for DOGE. This will have many on the left upping the meds. “According to the GAO’s own figures, there’s anywhere from $230 billion to $520 billion in fraudulent payments in [social welfare] programs across the board. So, the money is there if it’s looked at.”
Going after fraud in programs such as Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP is not the same thing as “cutting benefits,” as Elon Musk and the Trump administration have tried to stress. Politically, Democrats see a potential wedge issue if they can persuade large numbers of Americans that their benefits will be cut. That was, for example, the reason Texas Democratic Rep. Al Green yelled at President Trump during his recent address to Congress, for which he was censured the next day.
Fraud is always a problem in government social welfare programs.

What’s it tell you when the face of the Democrat Party is AOC?
So when it comes to who best describes the Core beliefs of Democrats, AOCis the party leader. What does that say for regular Democrats who still have morals and ethics?
The folks behind her are not much better. this all according to the latest CNN Poll.
The poll, conducted March 6-9 among approximately 500 Democrats and Democrat-leaning independents, resulted in the far-left congresswoman coming out on top with ten percent of the vote for representing the party’s “core values”:
AOC 10% Kamala Harris 9% Bernie Sanders 8% Hakeem Jeffries 6% Barack Obama 4% Jasmine Crockett 4% Gavin Newsom 2% Nancy Pelosi 2% Elissa Slotkin 2% Chuck Schumer 2% Tim Walz 1% Andy Beshear 1% Cory Booker 1% Al Green 1% Chris Murphy 1% Pete Buttigieg 1% Gretchen Whitmer 1% Josh Shapiro 1% Elizabeth Warren 1% Ken Martin 1% Joe Biden 1% Adam Schiff 1% Amy Klobuchar 1% Jamie Raskin 1% Hillary Clinton 1% John Fetterman 0%

Why Tariffs or the threat of, work.
So far President Trump has paused Tariffs on the auto industry until April 2nd. He recently spoke with the big three. And it looks as if he’s getting results.
GM and Stellantis both have made commitments to spend more on US plants. GM said their investments can be as high as 60 billion. No word yet from Ford.
Honda who’s not part of the big three has stated that a new plant is going to be built here. All this because of a threat. Winning.

Do you believe a real live lawyer or someone who did a law students homework for ten years.
There’s websites and lawyer wanna be’s who give baseless opinions on what they think the law is. Here’s Andrew McCarthy’s legal opinion on the Muslim terrorist who the government wants to deport.
McCarthy served as an assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York. He led the terrorism prosecution against Sheikh Omar Abdel-Rahman and eleven others. The defendants were convicted of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing and planning a series of attacks against New York City landmarks. He also contributed to the prosecutions of terrorists who bombed United States embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
If a person is credibly accused of crimes like extortion, there is no legal prohibition against using speech as evidence of those crimes. And if a person is credibly accused of conspiracy, there is no legal bar against presenting the conspirators’ association with each other as evidence that they were joint participants in a criminal agreement.
Keep that in mind. We’re already hearing twaddle about the First Amendment from apologists for Khalil, the Syria-born former Columbia University student. He claims Palestinian heritage and the Trump administration is seeking to deport him over his role in campus uprisings driven by his support for Hamas – which has been formally designated a terrorist organization under U.S. law for nearly 30 years.
In a nutshell, the defense goes like this. Khalil is a lawful permanent resident alien (LPR), a green-card holder. As a matter of law, that makes him a U.S. person whose rights approximate those of an American citizen. Ergo, he cannot lawfully be expelled from the United States for constitutionally protected conduct – his association with other pro-Hamas student agitators and his speech on their behalf as a “mediator” in interactions with Columbia’s administration.
Now, there are a number of legal flaws in this defense (I’ve outlined them in this National Review essay). While the rights of LPRs are similar to those of American citizens, they are not identical. LPRs are still aliens. Federal immigration law has long provided that aliens can be deported over criminal conduct, terrorist support, and national security concerns – something that cannot be done to U.S. citizens.
But I want to take issue with the basic premise that Khalil’s conduct was nothing more than constitutionally protected speech and association for which no American would face legal consequences.
Khalil is not subject to deportation because he is a Muslim or because he is deeply opposed to Israel’s existence as a Jewish state. His political speech and association with like-minded students (whether Muslims or non-Muslims) are not the point – even if he and his supporters would have you believe they’re the only point.
When he “mediated” on behalf of campus agitators – who had set up an illegal encampment blocking other students from tending to their studies and normal campus life, and who had illegally occupied and vandalized university buildings – he wasn’t engaged in political speech. He was pressuring the university to make concessions to the agitators’ pro-Hamas demands, with the understanding that if the administration did not capitulate, more and worse damage would be done on campus.
That’s not political speech. It’s extortion. American citizens who engaged in such behavior would not have a First Amendment defense. They’d likely face prosecution – and, in fact, dozens of the agitators were arrested in connection with these activities, and may still face other legal consequences.
Khalil does not present a profound constitutional controversy. His case is about the authority of the government, which is responsible for the security of its citizens, to deport aliens – even LPRs – who endanger us. That authority is etched in the Constitution, as well as the immigration and criminal laws of the United States.
