Hegseth putting the kibosh on 8A (DEI) contracts in the military. (Waste, fraud and abuse)
Posted by AaronDeTiger on 1/16/26 at 10:13 pm
This is a little known program, and one of the longest running, that gave money to "disadvantaged" business owners. Thankfully, someone in our government is paying attention. This strikes close to home because members of our community were actively engaged in the fraud.
Exhibit A:
TD.com: who else is vibe coding?
Here we have tech bros talking about how they used AI to code a program to find these government contracts to exploit.
Thank you Pete Hegseth, for looking into it.

re: BREAKING: Trump hints US could 'pull out of NATO' over Greenland
Posted by AaronDeTiger on 1/16/26 at 4:13 pm to aTmTexas Dillo
quote:
Besides, only an act of Congress or a 2/3rds Senate vote can withdraw us from NATO. That isn’t happening and President Trump cannot do it on his own.
Until 2023, all it took was for the president to issue a notice and wait the 1 year cool off period. Congress slipped a provision into the NDAA that year to require the senate. Every other president before Trump had the unilateral power to leave NATO. I think this supreme court would strike it down. Trump needs to get moving.
Summary of the Steps
In practice, a withdrawal attempt today would likely look like this:
Presidential Action: The President expresses intent to withdraw.
Congressional Block: Congress would cite the NDAA 2024 to block the action and cut off funding for the transition.
Judicial Review: The Executive Branch might sue, arguing the NDAA restricts the President's Article II foreign policy powers.
Final Decision: If the Supreme Court upheld the President's power, the President would issue the Article 13 notice. If the Court upheld Congress's law, the withdrawal would fail without a supermajority vote.

The only reason we aren't fighting in it is Trump. Had Kamala won, we'd be a leading the "coalition of the willing" instead of laughing at them.

Then we should have bases in countries that aren't importing the 3rd world, fining our tech companies, chilling free speech, and pulling us into their proxy wars.

re: Rule of 55

Interesting tidbit from Gemini:
It also said Rule 55 is not required to be offered by employers and that 70% do not allow flexible withdrawals.
quote:
The "Gotcha" (What you are missing):
20% Mandatory Withholding: Because this is a 401(k) distribution, Empower is required by federal law to withhold 20% of the money for federal taxes immediately.
Example: If you ask for $10,000, they will send you $8,000 and send $2,000 to the IRS. You settle up the exact tax owed when you file your return, but you lose that cash flow up front.

The biggest driver of the market valuation is big tech and AI. Those companies are global companies. The Buffett Indicator is comparing their global value to domestic production.

Washington filed a bill yesterday I believe that had the cost of the stamp going up to $4,700
I hope they do that and then the legality of the entire NFA goes to the supreme court.

re: United States has officially withdrawn from the UN Register of Conventional Arms

This will be nice while we have a Republican president, but rejoining the UN UNROCA would be a simple procedural task for a future president, largely because UNROCA is a voluntary transparency mechanism rather than a binding treaty requiring Senate ratification.
Some of the other things like the climate crap we left would require the senate to ratify them again.

Again, I don't disagree with American hegemony. I've stood on it almost completely by myself on this board for years.
Your version of American hegemony is the GOPe, Neocon, Uniparty version. You were duped into supporting their forever war graft disguised as spreading democracy and "protecting our freedom."
This is America First foreign policy. Not USAID, five eyes, coalition of the willing BS.
