NICOLE KIPRILOV: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly Of 2024

2024 was a year of contrasts, with progress in some areas and setbacks in others. This year has been full of change and surprises on every front, but we start 2025 with hope for new beginnings and ready to take on the challenges.

good points

The most important accomplishment of 2024 was that of President-elect Donald Trump. victory in november — perhaps the greatest political comeback of all time.

Trump’s campaign itself revolutionized our political culture. Trump has changed the game, reaching younger audiences through podcast appearances, building grassroots efforts in states like Pennsylvania, and accelerating the Republican Party’s progress with a digital strategy.

His coalition is made up of diverse and unconventional people, including: Tulsi Gabbarda Somoan-American woman and former Democrat. RFK Juniorenvironmental lawyer, Kennedy. Vivek Ramaswami, libertarian technology guru. Elon Musk is the richest businessman on the planet and a former Democrat. He regularly invited celebrities to events such as: hulk hogan and kid rock.

Another important event in 2024 is the collapse of the lying legacy media.

Let’s hope that in 2025 we see a return to more traditional fact-based journalism from traditional media.

Bad place

The biggest culprit was Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, which gave the Democratic Party a “mask-off moment” after years of deception.

Perhaps most notably, we experienced one of the worst cover-ups in American history: the Biden cover-up. Decline in cognitive function. Biden and Harris staff, Harris herself, strategists, media, campaign agents, and many others were all complicit in this operation. To hide Biden.Cognitive decline in Americans. This was unfathomable, but ultimately led to the exposure of traditional liberal media and the Democratic Party.

In addition to the cover-up, global conflicts have escalated, including the war between Israel and Hamas and the war in Ukraine. From the illegal immigration crisis caused by the Biden-Harris administration causing havoc by allowing millions of illegal immigrants to cross the border, to the various ways the Biden-Harris administration has injected DEI into the federal government. , Joe Biden commuted 1,500 sentences and pardoned 39 people, the largest single-day pardon ever, and ordered a disgusting number of additional commutations for most currently on federal death row. .

ugly (beautiful)

The reason Trump’s victory is called a “reversal” is precisely because he faced so many hardships. This is why the “ugly times” of 2024 became the path to victory for President Trump. It’s a journey defined by mugshots, assassination attemptlawsuits, and vicious media attacks.

But despite its ugliness, God intended it to happen this way. All heroes suffer. Every setback has raised President Trump’s credibility and connection with the American people to a new level. Every setback brought him closer to victory.

Without these setbacks, and without Trump’s willingness to sacrifice everything for our great country, the American people would never have known certain realities. The lawsuit against Trump was a necessary evil to expose the weaponization of the justice system by the left.

If Trump and the American people had not suffered so much, we would never have discovered our strength or felt the sheer sweetness of our incredible political comeback. In life, we have to feel the bad in order to feel the good. Trump’s path to victory was not easy, but ultimately beautiful.

It won’t be easy this year either. As we walk our journey in faith and humility, eliminating waste, fraud, and abuse, and vowing to never be satisfied, it becomes clear that America’s Golden Age is at hand.
