on the cartels because the cartels don't care if the alleged government gets pressure. They just care if they get pressure.

But speaking of that Pete Hegseth has announced that because the cartels are designated as terrorist organizations thanks to Trump that they can now, the Department of Defense can use special ops against the Mexican cartels. When asked about that Hegseth gave the correct answer which is all options are on the table. Meaning it doesn't mean that we mobilized yesterday but it might mean that. It might mean that we mobilized and the special forces are ready to go in or already have gone in and we haven't heard about it. So that is exactly what I want to see. I want to see the special forces take on the cartels and I want to see the tariffs get the governments of those countries on board. You put it all together and I don't think it's going to stop fentanyl. Hate to say but I don't think it'll be enough. But you have to do it. You can't just let people be dying like crazy without trying something. So if you can't stop it at the source, you can't stop people from trying to get it. I don't know. What do you do? I don't know. But I'm quite appreciative of this for reasons you know. I lost my stepson in 2018 to an overdose.

All right. FBI is experiencing massive firings. So CNN's reporting that and of course this is part of the cleaning house of the Trump administration. Dozens of FBI agents who worked on the January 6 cases have been let go and agents who worked to investigate Trump's handling of the classified documents. And those who investigated the 1,600 January 6 attendees seems like they'll be let go. And it's being reported that many of the agents initially had qualms about taking those assignments, the ones that are getting fired for those assignments. They had qualms about taking them because they believed that maybe it would come back and bite them in the ass. Yes, your instinct was right. If you take those illegitimate jobs and the other team gets in power you're in trouble.

Now I do have some sympathy here. If you're just trying to make your career work and your boss says you're going to work on this January 6 thing or you're going to work on the Mar-a-Lago thing, are you going to say you know honestly I have a philosophical problem with this? If you do I'm guessing that's the end of your career. So there must be a lot of people who didn't feel like they had a choice. So I'd feel bad for them.

But I'm going to give you an alternate point of view so that you don't see them as poor victims just doing their job and mean old Trump is coming in to get rid of them. I'd like to give you a reaction from Julie Kelly who you might know has been following the January 6 thing very closely. She's attended courtroom stuff and knows the most probably about the situation of anybody I know. And here's what she says. It appears that between 30 and 40 of the J6 line prosecutors were fired today. Now I think she's talking about the DOJ. I can only guess how much pleasure their victims take at this astounding news.

So there are two things happening. You know there's the purging of the FBI but separately the purging of the DOJ. And Julie Kelly says kudos to the acting Deputy AG. And she said here's the payoff. For three years I watched these prosecutors in disgust. When I left January 6 court proceedings I would pray that their comeuppance would come but had little hope it would. It is not so much how they abused the law and worked hand in glove with like-minded DC judges to violate the rights of J6 defendants. What sickened me was seeing how gratified they were in inflicting pain on people who had no recourse, no ability to fight the legal and judicial circle of hell created by the DOJ and federal courts in Washington. I often refer to them as sadists. There is something deeply wrong with them. Maybe being unemployed and under investigation will allow them time to conduct some much needed soul searching. But for now this is an historic day worthy of much celebration.

Okay, now that's what I call a victory lap. Julie Kelly, thank you for your service to the country. You deserve a victory lap. So I hope you're having a great day. So congratulations and thank you for all of your work on that.

So now do you feel sorry for the ones getting fired? Do you feel sorry for them now? I don't. All of my sort of instinct for empathy just went completely away. If you stand in the court and they seem to you like sadists and they seem to you like they're enjoying it, yeah, that's got to be, there's got to be a response to that and there was.

Meanwhile Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, he has made some changes to the news coverage for the Department of Defense and he evicted the following news entities from their, I guess they have a physical spot that they have control of so they can be closer to the Department of Defense. So he's evicting the New York Times, NPR and NBC and Politico from their Pentagon offices so they can make room for One America News Network, the New York Post, Breitbart, and HuffPost.

Now there's one name on that list that you say what now. I'm sure you understand why you'd want One America News Network, New York Post and Breitbart. Right, you understand those. But why the Huffington Post? Is he just trying to be both sides? You know just saying hey it's not about being right leaning it's more about being a non-traditional media. But here's the thing. BuzzFeed owns Huffington Post and Vivek Ramaswamy recently bought 8% of BuzzFeed. So maybe this is looking ahead a little bit in the sense that it could be that BuzzFeed is going to take on more of a Vivek Ramaswamy tone. He only has 8% of it so I don't know if that's enough to affect a change but we'll see. And maybe there's some thought that that would trickle down to the Huffington Post that's owned by BuzzFeed. So the only way it makes sense to me is if the Vivek level there is what mattered. So maybe it is.

Well on the All-In Podcast they were talking about DOGE's success. He says we're only nine or 10 days in and he said the fact that we're already at a billion dollars a day is really incredible. And there's been no discernable impact. I believe that's up to four billion dollars a day now. I think Elon said they're finding four billion dollars a day now that they can cut. So I'm not going to believe any of these specific numbers coming out of DOGE because DOGE is, and rightfully so, trying to make us understand that it's working so that we'll keep backing it. So if they make some claims early on they're maybe hyperbolic or a little exaggerated or they give us a number that's a multi-year number but it looked like it was just one year. I'm going to give them a lot of passes because one of the things I always say is that the first impressions become a weapon. So if they can cause a first impression that oh my goodness this DOGE stuff is working so well we want more of it, more, more, it's so good. And that's what they're doing. So there is a useful, practical and desirable level of PR for DOGE that I think they're doing a good job of, making it look like it's hitting the ground running and getting some stuff done. And the more that you think it's happening the more likely it will because it just sets the tone. If other government entities see that the other ones got gutted and there was no bad impact on the country it just makes all the rest of the work easier. So I'm in favor of call
