President-elect Donald Trump just won reelection on Tuesday and he won’t even be taking office until Jan. 20, 2025, But good things already seem to be happening, just with the knowledge he won.

The stock market immediately soared, with the Dow topping 44,000 for the first time and the S&P 500 closing at a record high. Jack Smith dropped charges against Trump. NYC Mayor Eric Adams announced he would be ending food vouchers for illegal aliens. That followed a phone call with Trump. Some illegal aliens are also reportedly turning back and abandoning a caravan, fearing that they wouldn’t get in or be kicked out in the wake of Trump’s win.

Department of Justice Taps the Brakes on the Trump Prosecution

That’s just the start. Now there’s big foreign policy news that Israel’s national public broadcaster Kan [cited as Kann News in the below X post] is reporting. According to them, Qatar informed Hamas’ leaders, who were in their territory, that they are “not welcome here.” 

That’s huge, given they’ve been able to have safe refuge there under Biden, and this puts the screws on them. The  White House hasn’t confirmed the report yet.

Republicans in the Senate including Senators Roger Wicker (R-MI) and Jim Risch (R-ID)—the ranking members on the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Affairs Committees—had been pressuring the Biden administration to be tougher on Qatar, to threaten consequences if they didn’t take action against Hamas assets, and turn over the leadership still harbored there: 

“The defeat of Hamas is within reach, and ending the safe haven that its leadership enjoys abroad is vital to defeating it,” Wicker, Risch, and 12 of their GOP colleagues wrote in a letter sent Monday to the State and Justice Departments and obtained by the Free Beacon.

“The administration has permitted Qatar to facilitate negotiations by hosting Hamas’ leadership,” the lawmakers wrote. “Hamas’ Doha-based leaders have exploited this arrangement, and used the relative freedom that Qatar has afforded them to oppose ceasefire negotiations in international media, host Iranian officials at Hamas’ Doha headquarters, and travel abroad.”

“It is long past time the administration ask Qatar to freeze Hamas leaders’ assets, shut their access to international media, end their ability to host foreign visitors, and prevent them from traveling abroad,” the senators wrote.

Now that Trump won and the GOP is going to take over the Senate, Qatar knows that things are going to change. They know Trump isn’t going to just be weak and lay off them as the Biden-Harris administration did. 

While the Democrats preached fear about Trump, the reality is that bad actors fear strength and take advantage of weakness. They’ve had weakness with Biden and Harris for four years. They know the strength is coming back, and they’re now backpedaling in the face of it. 

Some like Townhall’s Katie Pavlich are calling it the “Trump Effect.”

We’re likely to see a lot more of this as people realize sanity, and the real adults, are going to be back in charge in January.
