NEW: In a close vote this morning, Robert F Kennedy Jr. has been confirmed as the new Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Sen McConnell (R, KY) was the lone Republican to vote No.

DOGE has existed twice before

Most recently was under President Clinton’s “National Partnership for Reinventing Government” and most famously in 1941 under Then-Senator Truman’s “Truman Committee”.

Interesting that historically BOTH previous efforts at DOGE were Democratic led.

Also important to know that with very little money, specifically less than $7M over 7 years, the Truman Committee saved the USA $10-15B. These are 1941 dollars. Adjusted for inflation, the Truman Committee saved USA almost $250B of today’s dollars.

“When it’s too dirty for the CIA, give it to USAID.”

President Donald Trump is fighting to bring down USAID, the rent-a-riot agency responsible for disruption, transgenderism, and censorship around the globe.

Tucker Carlson sat down with USAID-expert Mike Benz to find out exactly what USAID is, how it operates, and how to stop it.

France plans to transfer Mirage 2000-5 fighters to Ukraine by the end of the first quarter of this year.

The key advantages of the aircraft (in comparison, for example, with the already delivered F-16AM Block 20) can be considered the presence of higher-energy onboard RDY-2 radars based on waveguide-slot antenna arrays with a detection range of targets with a RCS of 5 - 7 sq. m (equivalent to the Su-30SM) at a distance of 150 km
- With a RCS of 3 sq. m at 130 km
- With a RCS of 1 sq. m at 105 km
- Small-sized ones with a RCS of 0.1 sq. m at 45 - 50 km
The modes of earth's surface mapping, SAR and terrain following flight are also implemented.

The vehicles will also be equipped with MICA-IR medium-range air-to-air missiles with IR homing heads and MICA-EM with active radar homing heads.
These missiles are capable of intercepting targets maneuvering with overloads of up to 30G. Dassault specialists can also adapt the combat control system of these vehicles to the use of MBDA Meteor air-to-air missiles with integral ramjet engines and an effective range of up to 160 km.

In long-range air combat, these aircraft can pose a significant threat to early versions of the Su-30SM with the Bars-R ("Барс-Р") radar, but will be several times inferior to the Su-30SM2 and Su-35S with the Irbis-E radar and the R-37M ultra-long-range air-to-air missiles.

The Mirage 2000-5F also carries the SCALP-EG missile and has the advanced ICMS Mk.2 airborne defence system.

It is worth noting that the MICA-EM/IR missile, despite the presence of a gas-jet thrust vector deflection system (providing available overloads of 50G) and modern AD4A radar seeker of the MICA-EM and bispectral (3-5 and 8-12 µm) IRGSN for the MICA-IR, have extremely limited energy capabilities and an effective range when launched from high altitudes (12+ km) of about 70 km and medium altitudes (3.5-5 km) of about 45 km.
Therefore, even the early Su-30SM and Su-27SM3 will have approximately a 35-45-kilometer head start on the use of R-77-1 air-to-air missiles from a distance of 110-100 km, not to mention the Su-35S, whose onboard N035 radars will be able to detect the Mirage-2000-5F at a distance of approximately 350 km against the background of airspace and 175-200 km against the background of the ground, with the ability to capture and use the R-37M missiles at a distance of 230-200 km.

"Much like the Federal Reserve chairmen bit, this is a fairly typical case of Europa having information that’s remarkable in showing the extent of Jewish influence, but adding an outright lie to make it seem even more remarkable, thus discrediting the whole thing."
