Hi friends,
We have been getting fantastic news and results every single day!
I don’t put a ton of faith in polls, but this is worth sharing.
Then I’ve also shared excerpts from two very encouraging articles. Enjoy!
President Trump's first month of his second term's approval rating is the HIGHEST he's ever had
This one-minute CNN video will blow you away. American’s confidence in Donald Trump is at an all-time high.
Spoiler alert: Don’t miss the other video I’ve included, The Golden Age of America..
Reuters/Ipsos poll finds:
While 56% of Americans backed freezing U.S.-funded foreign assistance programs, 40% opposed domestic cuts.
On reinstating military service members who were discharged for refusing to take the COVID-19 vaccine during the pandemic, 59% of respondents in the Reuters/Ipsos poll said they backed reinstating the soldiers, 37% opposed.
Mutiny of the Administrative State
According to a recent RMG Research survey commissioned by the Napolitan Institute, nearly half of federal bureaucrats in the Washington, D.C., area plan to oppose the new administration politically. Worse, 64% of D.C.-based bureaucrats who voted for Kamala Harris in the last election say they would refuse to follow a lawful Trump order if they consider it bad policy. This opposition from within the federal government represents a classic deep state threat.

Don’t Squander Your Power!
From: Free Thinking Through the Fourth Turning with Sasha Stone
My advice: give Trump the benefit of the doubt, don’t be influenced by mass hysteria, and don’t give up everything you’ve worked so hard for. Don’t squander that power now. You’ll never get it back!
~Sasha Stone
My thoughts: Stay calm - President Trump is a businessman who operates strategically, and not everything will make sense at first. His plan to shrink government and Make America Great Again is a process, not an overnight fix. Trust the long game, not just the headlines.
Keep Calm, Carry On ... And Wait
Excerpt:
In other words, if you calm down, support him on those issues where he is popular, and oppose him on those issues he isn’t, you might regain some traction by 2026.
Perfect is the Enemy of Good
Excerpt:
We continue to warn you that while these next years will be filled with great change, they are going to be very difficult and disconcerting. Change is always like that but in this case it will be even harder.
The more we read about the entrenched corruption in the world, the more we see the magnitude of Trump’s challenge.
We may not like everything. We may not see the results we want. We may not like some personalities. We may have to compromise.
But remember: Perfect is the enemy of good.
It does not all have to be perfect. We can achieve good results, keep good momentum and add more converts to the fold by consistently putting people before government.
It is by faith that we will turn the direction of humanity. We ask you to pray without ceasing for our leaders.
In the meltdown department:
House Dems launch united effort against election bill requiring voters prove citizenship
If you haven’t been seeing the hysterical Dem videos, you may want to.
Positive headline for today.
God bless you and God bless America!

Stand for America.
Being informed is just the first step. What happens next depends on us - everyday citizens who care about our country’s future. I encourage you to:
Take time to be informed, stay up to date. We’ve only accomplished Step 1.
Share information with friends and family. We need to bring back civil discourse.
Reach out to your representatives, local, state, and federal, to voice your support or concerns. If you haven’t heard, “All politics is local”, do realize that bad local politicians just move up the ladder. Don’t let them get a foot in the door.
The work of restoring our country and protecting our freedoms has only just begun. Let’s move forward together to continue the momentum to make America, health, and education great again.
If you have questions, let me know. I’m happy to help.
