Americans responded positively to Trump's \"woke no longer\" phrase, and he revoked security clearances for those tied to the Russia Hoax. Federal employment dropped, Social Security is purging fraudulent claims, and a DOGE investigation uncovered a CIA black site in Virginia. Minnesota faces a $6B deficit, and two U.S. soldiers were arrested for spying for China.

Internationally, China fears losing the trade war, the U.S. charged 12 foreign hackers, and South Africa's ANC voted to seize white-owned land.
