Trump at TPUSA: Democrats are probing Jan. 6 to hurt my 2024 candidacy
[Washington Examiner] Former President Donald Trump vowed to never abandon his beliefs — including that the 2020 election was stolen — while delivering the keynote address at Turning Point USA's Student Action Summit Saturday evening.

The 45th president pulled no punches during his 90 minute speech, which began more than an hour late, bashing everything from Democrats' policy agenda and President Joe Biden's job performance to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's husband over his controversial stock purchases. Trump delivered the remarks at the conservative youth conference's annual gathering, which took place this year in Tampa, Fla.

"Everything this corrupt establishment is doing to me is all about preserving their power and control over the American people. They're sick. They want to damage me in any form so I can no longer represent you," Trump told the high school and college-aged crowd. "Obviously they want me not to be the candidate, because they never talk about anybody else. And you know, everything's disinformation."

Donald Trump on Schedule F Executive Order: ‘To Drain the Swamp We Need to Fire the Swamp'
Article published before he made the speech.
[Breitbart] Former President Donald Trump, at Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit, will speak about his schedule F executive order, which would allow him to “drain the swamp” by firing the swamp, according to Trump’s prepared remarks provided in advance of his speech to Breitbart News.

“To drain the swamp, we need to fire the swamp. With schedule F, I took executive action to make it possible to fire federal employees who are bypassing our democracy to advance wokeism and corruption,” Trump plans to say.

“We now need Congress to institute historic reforms to permanently empower the President to root out the Deep State, and ensure that any bureaucrat who is corrupt, incompetent, or unnecessary can be told, ‘You’re fired,’” the former President will assert.

Trump’s remarks will come one day after an Axios report claimed Trump is planning to use the executive order to fire close to 50,000 government bureaucrats if he gets reelected in 2024.

As Breitbart News detailed:

If reelected in 2024, Trump is planning to cut about 50,000 administrative state employees to rein in unelected technocrats in federal government agencies that have great influence over policies impacting American workers, according to the outlet.



The term administrative state specifically describes the phenomenon of unaccountable and unelected administrative agencies exercising power to create and enforce their own rules.

The administrative state uses its rule-making ability to essentially usurp the separation of powers between the three branches of government by creating a so-called fourth branch of government not created by the Constitution. Nearly 2 million federal government employees in federal agencies make up the administrative state. Trump has referred to the administrative state as the “swamp.”

Trump signed the schedule F executive order before leaving office in 2021, but President Joe Biden cancelled the executive order when he took office in January 2021.

Trump also plans to call out the “climate crisis hoax” at his Turning Point speech on Saturday evening:

First: we have to defeat the Climate Crisis Hoax once and for all. For decades, the left has made it a religious crusade to bully and scare young people into believing the world is ending because of climate change—or in the case of AOC, that the planet is doomed in just 12 years. This is a total lie.

The former President will single out Biden for his threats to declare a national emergency over the alleged climate crisis.

“This very week, the White House has even threatened to declare a NATIONAL EMERGENCY. But we don’t have a CLIMATE Emergency, we have an ENERGY emergency—caused by their climate fanaticism,” Trump will say.

“As we are now vividly seeing, the real threat to future generations is NOT Global Warming, it is the Green New Deal. Without abundant, reliable, and affordable energy, there is no civilization,” Trump will add.

#2 Trump told the high school and college-aged crowd.

Who cheered him on and hooraa-ed the more he seemed to like it. Then they drank the free Mountain Dew and went home.

#6 TPUSA is a grift, just like CPAC. I don't think Dron has a problem with young conservatives in the USA, he does rightly recognize that these bright shiny objects are just a distraction.

Not true, Xyz. I'm just for more Kylie Rittenhouses than 'Benji' Backers.

#8 A lot of past TPUSA are now concealed carriers and are very good at completely eliminating trash entitlement types who try to rob them I have noticed lately.
