One hundred days of great federal reforms by President Trump. The great silent majority needs to speak up after four years of Biden failures.

The great effort under the 1798 law to deport the 20 million illegals in the U.S. promptly is what the U.S. needs now.

The building of a tight border wall is well-needed.

Sweeping away DEI in the U.S. is a great move. Merit not DEI!

Slash federal government spending by 2 trillion and balance the federal budget this year.

Slash waste and federal fraud to help save Social Security and Medicare, as President Trump stated. Reform SSI for only U.S. citizen adults.

Return education to the states, not a federal cabinet position.

Back Minnesotan Pete Hegseth’s defense reforms.

Have Congress work to slash excessive spending and regulations promptly.

Cut the bloated federal bureaucracy.

Congratulate the excellent DOGE efforts.

President Trump’s gold card is a great idea; Congress needs to support it.

Congress needs to pass an updated guest worker plan. Each guest worker would have a private sponsor. Sponsors will cover all costs. No government funds to non-citizens. A 5% fee on non-citizen earnings to cover administrative costs.

Minnesota needs to cut bloated spending and waste and fraud (remember Feeding Our Future). Minnesota needs a DOGE plan. We need to find why Iowa and South Dakota tax and spend less.
