Dear Patriot,
Whatever you may think about the Ukraine/Russian War, we can all agree that President Trump is giving the world live, up-front seats to the Oval Office.
Despite being able to see this happen live, the left media and the Dems are pouncing on the Trump Team and offering oxygen to Zelenski. There have been a lot of lies told, especially on social media and Fox News. (Looking at you Karl Rove).
Today, we are offering all of you information that may not have crossed your path. It is our duty as citizens to be as informed as possible. We are no longer left to be spoon-fed propaganda by the “free” press. We must seek the truth. This has become easier with the growth of independent news sources and notably, X/Twitter. But it is also up to us to call out lies and provide the truth to others.
Do we agree with everything presented here….maybe not.
Do we trust the motives and backgrounds of everyone presented here…maybe not.
But, it is all information that must go toward finding the nuggets of truth.
Today’s DTR Newsletter contains information that we believe is vital to counter the latest lies being spread by Democrats and their media partners. We are making this entire newsletter available to ALL readers.
We hope that you will consider becoming a subscriber for only $5 / mo … and enjoy full access to every newsletter.
Also today, we alert you to….
a battle about to begin on American campuses.
a new tool for parents in fighting DEI in school.
Trump and his most obviously needed Executive Order.
February is a wrap. President Trump secures the border.

Zelensky Temper Tantrum on Tape
QUOTE: Truly historic moment Friday when President Trump and Vice President Vance publicly confronted the petulant and bad-mannered tinpot tyrant Volodymyr Zelensky. Despite selective clips shared by the media and Endless War Neocons attempting to demonstrate that Trump and Vance “bullied” the ill-dressed Ukranian president during a press availability on Friday afternoon, the full video proves just the opposite.
Zelensky—a former dancer and entertainer—put on a performance for the national and international media but his victim act backfired in a big way. My guess is Vance, seated to the left of both presidents with a full view of Zelensky’s smirks and winces and eye rolls, had had enough of the disrespect, prompting him to level Zelensky toward the end of the event.
Rather than back off, Zelensky dug in his once dancing high heels in the Oval Office resulting in getting tossed out of the White House, lunch and rare minerals deal signing cancelled.
The full video provides a better understanding as to how the meeting went off the rails and who was responsible.
VIDEO:
I also found this timeline of Biden regime support for Ukraine dating back to Russia’s invasion three years ago. Just look at the payouts made to Zelensky—truly infuriating to watch him behave so badly Friday morning.

Disaster in the Oval Office: Dems lead Zelensky, Ukraine off a cliff with pressure to reject mineral deal
QUOTE: A common criticism of Volodymyr Zelensky’s disastrous Friday performance in the Oval Office is that he failed to read the room.
Actually, the Ukrainian president did read a room — but it was the wrong room.
Before meeting Trump, Zelensky met with anti-Trump Democrats who advised him to reject the terms of the mineral deal the president was offering, according to Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.).
“Just finished a meeting with President Zelensky here in Washington. He confirmed that the Ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where Putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements for Ukraine,” Murphy’s office posted on X at 11:15 a.m. Friday. He attached a picture of Zelensky at a conference table, with Murphy seated on the opposite side.
Forty minutes later, Zelensky arrived at the White House, where Trump met his car, smiled, shook his hand and walked him into the Oval Office. The meeting, as the world now knows, quickly went off the rails and ended with Trump angrily ejecting the arrogant ingrate from the White House.
The earlier meeting with Dems undercuts wild claims that Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance staged an ambush. In fact, it was Zelensky who came with an ulterior motive.
The purpose of the meeting was to sign the mineral agreement he and Trump representatives had negotiated. He had twice refused to sign it after promising to, and thanks to Murphy, we now know he had no intention of signing it Friday.
By listening to the nakedly partisan advice of Dems instead of dealing forthrightly with the current president, Zelensky betrayed his countrymen and, for now at least, leaves them without the military and diplomatic protection that only America can provide.
Good luck counting on Britain, France and the rest of Europe to save Ukraine. Maybe the Germans will send strudel.
As the president reminded him three times, “you don’t have the cards” to make the demands he was making, but Zelensky ignored the advice and the facts.
What a tragic mistake.
6- Even a leftist journalist had to point out the error of the left media jumping on a bandwagon of trashing Trump.

A Liberal Reporter Destroyed the Left's Narrative About Zelensky's Meeting with Trump
QUOTE: The left once again showed its true colors after President Trump's meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday. The pearl-clutching commentators, be they in Congress or the media, immediately ran with their favorite narrative: the explosive meeting was Trump’s fault, Trump embarrassed America, and he "ambushed" the poor Ukrainian leader in an orchestrated setup.
There's just one problem—it's complete nonsense.
But don't take my word for it. Even some voices on the left couldn't stomach the blatant mischaracterization of what actually happened. Independent journalist Michael Tracey, who's certainly no MAGA fan, called out the absurdity of the "ambush" narrative being pushed by the mainstream media.
"Anyone who rationally watches the full 50 minutes will see it was not an 'ambush,'" Tracey wrote in a post on X. "The first 40 minutes were normal and cordial. Then came the self-inflicted meltdown by Zelensky. If you can't rationally describe the meeting, perhaps your policy extrapolations are also irrational."
Tracey didn't stop there. He explained exactly how Zelenskyy torpedoed his own diplomatic mission.
The reality is that Zelenskyy had already secured what he came for—assurances that military support would continue under Trump's second term—and then proceeded to shoot himself in the foot.
The most revealing aspect of this entire episode is how quickly the media jumped to construct a fantasy version of events. Rather than reporting what actually happened—a cordial meeting that deteriorated after Zelenskyy's poor diplomatic choices—they spun tales of Trump setting "traps" and staging "humiliations" because they refused to acknowledge the fact that Zelenskyy was at fault.

DOJ Sends Antisemitism Task Force to 10 Universities
QUOTE: The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on Friday that it would be sending the Federal Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism, headed by civil rights lawyer Leo Terrell, to ten university campuses to conduct investigations.
The move is the latest step by the Trump administration to fight campus antisemitism, which exploded after the Hamas terror attack against Israel on October 7, 2023, despite a Biden administration “strategy” on antisemitism.
The DOJ said in a press release:
Leading Task Force member and Senior Counsel to the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Leo Terrell informed the 10 universities yesterday that the Task Force was aware of allegations that the schools may have failed to protect Jewish students and faculty members from unlawful discrimination, in potential violation of federal law. Mr. Terrell said he intends for the Task Force to meet with university leadership, impacted students and staff, local law enforcement, and community members as it gathers information about these incidents and considers whether remedial action is warranted.
The 10 universities identified by the Task Force are: Columbia University; George Washington University; Harvard University; Johns Hopkins University; New York University; Northwestern University; the University of California, Los Angeles; the University of California, Berkeley; the University of Minnesota; and the University of Southern California.

U.S. Department of Education Launches “End DEI” Portal
QUOTE: The U.S. Department of Education launched EndDEI.Ed.Gov, a public portal for parents, students, teachers, and the broader community to submit reports of discrimination based on race or sex in publicly-funded K-12 schools.
The secure portal allows parents to provide an email address, the name of the student’s school or school district, and details of the concerning practices. The Department of Education will use submissions as a guide to identify potential areas for investigation.
“For years, parents have been begging schools to focus on teaching their kids practical skills like reading, writing, and math, instead of pushing critical theory, rogue sex education and divisive ideologies—but their concerns have been brushed off, mocked, or shut down entirely,” said Tiffany Justice, Co-Founder of Moms for Liberty. “Parents, now is the time that you share the receipts of the betrayal that has happened in our public schools. This webpage demonstrates that President Trump’s Department of Education is putting power back in the hands of parents.”
9- Lost in all the hysteria over the Zelensky was this Executive Order. This is long overdue. It is vital to immigrant assimilation and national unity.

Trump to Sign Executive Order Declaring English The Official Language of United States
QUOTE: President Donald Trump will sign an executive order making English the official language of the United States.
Despite English being the predominant language, the U.S. has never had a national language at the federal level.
However, many states have declared English as their official language.
The executive order would rescind a federal mandate issued by President Bill Clinton that agencies and other recipients of federal funding are required to provide language assistance to non-English speakers, the officials said. Agencies will still be able to provide documents and services in languages other than English, according to a White House summary of the order viewed by The Wall Street Journal.
The summary of the order said the goal of making English the national language is to promote unity, establish efficiency in the government and provide a pathway to civic engagement.
Trump has long been critical of efforts to diversify the languages spoken across the U.S., insisting that English should be spoken by everyone for the benefit of social cohesion.
10- President Trump wraps up the month of February in terms of illegal alien invasion.
PRAY for divine intervention in all matters…as big as war and as small as our official language.
PRAY for divine protection of President Trump and Vice President Vance and their entire team of warriors, family and friends.
SEEK the truth.
SHARE the truth.
