In a video presentation, President-elect Donald J. Trump issued a 10-point plan promising to radically dismantle and de-weaponize the “Deep State,” and send much of what is left “of the sprawling federal bureaucracy to new locations outside the Washington Swamp” to “places filled with patriots who love America.”

Trump’s announcement sent shockwaves of fear and anxiety throughout the nation’s capital.

As part of Trump’s plan, he promises to “clean out all of the corrupt actors in our national security and intelligence apparatus. The departments and agencies that have been weaponized will be completely overhauled, so that faceless bureaucrats will never again be able to target and persecute conservatives, Christians, or the left’s political enemies.”

He also proposes to expose the “abuses of power that have been tearing our country apart”; to “establish a ‘Truth and Reconciliation Commission’ to declassify and publish all documents on Deep State spying, censorship, and corruption”; and to “monitor our intelligence agencies to ensure they are not spying on our citizens or running disinformation campaigns against the American people.”

Once his new administration begins, Trump said he would “push a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress.”

In President-elect Trump’s own words:

Here is my plan to dismantle the Deep State and reclaim our democracy from Washington corruption once and for all.

 First, I will immediately reissue my 2020 executive order restoring the President’s authority to remove rogue bureaucrats, and I will wield that power very aggressively.

 Second, we will clean out all of the corrupt actors in our national security and intelligence apparatus. The departments and agencies that have been weaponized will be completely overhauled, so that faceless bureaucrats will never again be able to target and persecute conservatives, Christians, or the left’s political enemies.

 Third, we will totally reform FISA courts which are so corrupt that the judges seemingly do not care when they’re lied to in warrant applications.”

 Fourth, to expose the hoaxes and abuses of power that have been tearing our country apart.  We will establish a ‘Truth and Reconciliation Commission’ to declassify and publish all documents on Deep State spying, censorship, and corruption.

 Fifth, we will launch a major crackdown on government leakers who collude with the fake news to deliberately weave false narratives and to subvert our government and our democracy.  When possible, we will press criminal charges.

Sixth: We will make every Inspector General’s office independent and physically separated from the departments they oversee so they do not become the protectors of the Deep State.”

 Seventh, I will ask Congress to establish an independent auditing system to continually monitor our intelligence agencies to ensure they are not spying on our citizens or running disinformation campaigns against the American people, or that they are not spying on someone’s campaign like they spied on my campaign.”

 Eighth, we will continue the effort launched by the Trump administration to move parts of the sprawling federal bureaucracy to new locations outside the Washington Swamp. Just as I moved the Bureau of Land Management to Colorado, as many as one hundred thousand government positions could be moved out — immediately — to places filled with patriots who love America.

 Ninth: I will work to ban federal bureaucrats from taking jobs at the companies they deal with and that they regulate.”

 Finally, I will push a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress.”

 This is how I will shatter the Deep State and restore government that is controlled by the people and for the people.

Big Pharma company Regeneron buys 23andMe, set to acquire genetic data of millions

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

Regeneron said it will act ethically when it acquires data on 15 million Americans from 23andMe.

A Big Pharma company will acquire genetic data on 15 million people after purchasing DNA testing company 23andMe in a bankruptcy auction.

“Drugmaker Regeneron Pharmaceuticals will buy genetic testing firm 23andMe for $256 million through a bankruptcy auction,” CNN reported.

“Regeneron said it will comply with 23andMe’s privacy policies and applicable laws with respect to the use of customer data and that it is ready to detail its intended use of the data to a court-appointed overseer,” the news outlet reported.

23andMe already suffered a privacy breach of its sensitive genetic information.

While Regeneron said it will protect data, many people may still have concerns.

Users wishing to delete their genetic data can do so, according to California Attorney General Rob Bonta, who issued a “consumer alert” when 23andMe first filed for bankruptcy in March. He explained how people can log into their account and delete their data.

Trump issues ultimatum to Apple: Build iPhones in U.S.

Published on

MXM logo MxM News

Quick Hit:

President Trump on Friday threatened Apple with a 25% tariff if iPhones sold in the U.S. are not manufactured domestically. In a post to Truth Social, Trump said Apple must stop producing iPhones in India or China and bring manufacturing back to the United States.

Key Details:

  • In a Truth Social post, Trump wrote: “I expect their iPhone’s that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else. If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S.”

  • Apple’s stock reportedly dropped around 3% in premarket trading following Trump’s announcement.

  • Trump’s demand follows a broader push to penalize companies that manufacture overseas. He also floated a 50% tariff on European Union imports.

Diving Deeper:

President Donald Trump on Friday issued a fresh warning to Apple, demanding the tech giant bring iPhone manufacturing back to the United States or face a stiff tariff. In a Truth Social post, Trump directly addressed Apple CEO Tim Cook, declaring that iPhones sold in the U.S. must no longer be produced in India or any other country abroad.

“I have long ago informed Tim Cook of Apple that I expect their iPhone’s that will be sold in the United States of America will be manufactured and built in the United States, not India, or anyplace else,” Trump wrote. “If that is not the case, a Tariff of at least 25% must be paid by Apple to the U.S.”

The statement rattled markets early Friday, with Apple shares falling about 3% in premarket trading.

While Apple has historically relied on China for the bulk of its iPhone production, it has recently begun shifting some operations to India—moves largely aimed at diversifying its supply chain amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and pandemic-era disruptions. Trump’s post signals that even this shift away from China may not be sufficient to satisfy his America-first trade vision.

According to a recent Politico report, Trump and Cook met Tuesday at the White House. Though Cook has made overtures toward Trump in the past—including attending his inauguration and pledging a $1 million donation—Apple has continued its offshore production strategy, frustrating Trump’s push for domestic job creation.

Despite this, Apple has committed to a $500 billion investment in the U.S., including development of AI server infrastructure in Houston, Texas. Whether that’s enough to blunt Trump’s tariff threat remains to be seen.

In a separate post Friday, Trump also advocated for a sweeping 50% tariff on goods imported from the European Union, signaling a renewed appetite for aggressive trade measures should he return to office.
