@DataRepublican ACVFA is older than USAID and NED.
It makes "recommendations" to USAID and the likes.
This was a fun rabbit hole to dive into.
If everyone was entertained by USAID and as they say, " the original movie was better", then ACVFA should prove just as or far more entertaining.

Too many bots on X
@elonmusk can we please get a clean-up on isle 3 over here?
We're swimming in these darned things.

@grok explain why Gays for Gaza is like chickens for KFC or Cows for Burger King.

Hey @grok, would all these guys be frisbees for Muslims?

Hakeem Thune as the next John Jeffries, or should they use their own names?
What's the difference?
Different party?
Really?
Same Washington playbook.
Same leadership class.
Same machinery.
Same donor networks.
Same career politicians protecting the system that keeps them in power.
The rhetoric changes.
The jerseys change.
The insiders keep their seats.
New Congress? (not really)
Same old establishment.
That's exactly what Washington is counting on.

The common thread is a media establishment that frames virtually every Trump-era decision—foreign, economic, technological, or national security—as failure, overreach, or chaos.
The headlines are predictable.
FAA statements, corporate filings, Nvidia board decisions, White House announcements, and actual outcomes should matter more than editorial spin from outlets invested in a particular narrative.
Disagreement isn't repudiation. Disruption isn't automatically failure. Challenging entrenched interests isn't the same as overreach.

Trump was elected to change the direction of government, not to preserve the comfort of the institutions that helped create the problems.

Judge the administration by documented decisions, measurable results, and consequences—not by how many times the legacy media can repackage disagreement as another crisis.
Scrutinize the policy.
Follow the evidence.
Ignore the theater.

What's going to happen next year?
Same as the last two years with an added plus, Trump vetos.

Same Divided Government;
Jeffries becomes Speaker, Thune stays minority leader.
Investigations and messaging on costs; Trump vetoes anything serious.
Same donors, same careerists, same gridlock.
Rhetoric changes and outcomes will mostly remain unchanged.

That's not necessarily a bad thing if you really think about the bigger picture.😉
