TOTH: Trump Finds His Perfect Wingman in Susie Wiles

By Michael Toth | Commentary, The Hill Like President Trump or not, his second term is going much better for him than his first was. This time eight years ago, his presidency was in disarray, reeling from the Russiagate probe and the Senate’s rejection of ObamaCare repeal. That’s night and day from the current administration’s early victories from the tax-and-spending megabill, immigration and universal injunctions. Even European leaders and Ivy League universities are now heeding Trump’s demands. The president’s approval ratings are 5 percentage points higher now than at the same time in his first term, according to the RealClearPolitics aggregate poll. Pundits have credited White House chief of staff Susie Wiles for the new administration’s winning streak. But less has been w...

Elite economist slips: Deportations under Trump raised wages

By Neil Munro | Breitbart President Donald Trump is pushing up wages for millions of Americans by ending the federal welcome for millions of illegal migrants, says a pro-migration economist at a Washington, DC, think-tank. “We’re going to see stronger wage growth in some occupations, stronger wage growth in the agricultural sector, stronger wage growth for home health workers,” said Wendy Edelberg, a “senior fellow” at the elite-funded Brookings Institution in Washington, DC. But the loss of deported migrants will have “pretty modest economic effects” on the overall size of the nation’s economy, she told Bloomberg on July 11. “I think those [economic effects] are dwarfed by just the visceral effect” as business reacts to the sudden cut-off of expected migrants, she said. “We ma...

America First: Trump shuts door on taxpayer-funded tuition for illegal immigrants

By Jayden Jelso | Daily Wire The move was part of the White House's broader effort to restrict taxpayer-funded services to citizens. The Department of Education is ending a Clinton-era rule allowing illegal aliens access to federally funded tuition programs. According to The Daily Caller, the Trump administration argues that the policy, which funds career, technical, and adult education programs, violates the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA). The Education Department notified postsecondary education programs that the rule would no longer apply and declared that providers have “obligations to verify the eligibility of participants.” This was one of several such moves the White House announced today. The Department of Health ...

Trump ‘Very Unhappy’ With Putin, Signals Ukraine Policy Pivot

By Nicholas Ballasy | Just the News Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Saturday described his most recent conversation with President Donald Trump as the "most productive" to date. "Regarding the conversation with the president of the United States, which took place a day earlier, it was probably the best conversation we have had during this whole time, the most productive," Zelenskiy said in a video address, according to Reuters. Trump said he was "very unhappy" after his recent conversation with Russian President Putin. Trump also said Putin does not want to work toward a ceasefire deal. He added that Ukraine is "being hit pretty hard" and will likely need Patriot missiles for defense. Russia shot down four Ukrainian drones on Saturday, according to the city's ma...

Joondeph: Is MAGA Still on Track After the Escalator Ride 10 Years Ago?

By Dr. Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, American Thinker Businessman and T.V. personality Donald Trump descended the golden escalator at Trump Tower in Midtown Manhattan on June 16, 2015 to announce his bid to become president of the United States.  Trump was seen as a novelty candidate, running mainly to boost his ego and promote The Apprentice or his next entertainment project. His polling before the ride was weak. Monmouth University showed Trump at 2%, tied with Carly Fiorina and Lindsey Graham, ahead of only Bobby Jindal and John Kasich. He trailed the rest of the field, including Chris Christie, Marco Rubio, Scott Walker, Jeb Bush, and Ben Carson.  But two months later, in August 2015, the same poll showed Trump with a 26% lead in the Rep...

Trump: ‘Major’ pharmaceutical tariffs coming soon

By  Ashleigh Fields | The Hill President Trump said Tuesday his administration soon would announce “major” tariffs on pharmaceuticals, adding to the tariffs he has already imposed on most goods entering the United States from abroad. “We’re going to be announcing very shortly a major tariff on pharmaceuticals,” Trump said during a speech at the National Republican Congressional Committee. “And when they hear that, they will leave China. They will leave other places because they have to sell — most of their product is sold here, and they’re going to be opening up their plants all over the place in our country,” he added.  READ THE FULL STORY AT THE HILL

White: Trump’s ‘Office Of Shipbuilding’ might be just what America needs to revive its power on high seas

By Wallace White | Daily Caller, Commentary While America’s maritime power has been left to languish and China’s influence on the high seas continues to grow, experts say President Donald Trump’s new “Office of Shipbuilding” is a crucial first step to the U.S. regaining its naval prowess. Trump announced in his joint address to Congress in March that he would create the office with the intent to revive both commercial and military shipbuilding in the United States. America finds itself in dire straits in maritime power as the manufacturing base continues to shrink while China continues to outpace the U.S., with experts telling the Daily Caller News Foundation that Beijing’s dominance poses serious national security risks.

Pentagon replies to DOGE ‘5 bullets’ request with details of ‘action-packed, America first week’

By Hannah Nightingale | The Post Millennial Pentagon Chief Spokesman Sean Parnell on Friday morning released the first weekly situation report, outlining key events that occurred during the week at the Department of Defense. The report was posted to X Friday morning, tagging Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency, and addressed to America’s “warfighters, and the American taxpayers," saying, "This is what we did this week," a callback to the email sent to federal employees by Musk over the weekend asking them to include five things they accomplished in the prior week. Parnell outlined the five things the Department of Defense accomplished over the past week, which was an "action-packed, America First week," the first being the nomination of Lieutenant General Dan "R...

Kirk: Elbridge Colby is the right man to carry out Trump’s America First mandate

By Charlie Kirk | The Federalist, Commentary President Trump was elected with a mandate — a mandate to rethink the core assumptions of Washington, D.C., that have led this country to disaster after disaster. A mandate to put America first instead of last. To fulfill his mandate, the president needs to be able to make the appointments of his choosing without being sabotaged by the members of his own party that he carried to victory in November. Yet right now, a fight has broken out over the nomination of Elbridge Colby to be undersecretary of defense for policy, the top strategy official at the Pentagon. Make no mistake: This is a make-or-break moment for whether Donald Trump’s America First foreign policy will succeed — or even happen. Colby is being attacked precisely because hi...
