The ‘Speed of Trump’ continues.
The following is an installment of Trump-Vance team accomplishments (each article is linked for further info):
1. Spring Cleaning Time—The Press Pool is an Illegitimate Media Cartel
Maintaining a hostile media cartel never made much sense, therefore, finally, the GOP has begun cutting ties with media organizations.
NOTE: The White House press corps has long been a small, heavily liberal, coordinated group speaking uniformly. Its legitimacy depended on at least “the pretense of fair play and openness,” but that all went by the wayside sometime back along with journalistic integrity.
The idea the media has any entitlement to decide who will be allowed to cover anything is nonsense. But there are arguments that allowing the White House to pick who will cover it is bad for a free press.
And that would be a good argument if we had one of those; it would be a good argument if anyone in that same press had bothered to report on Biden’s mental state or ask Obama challenging questions.
The White House Correspondents’ Association was a convenient arrangement, to say the least. And now, that arrangement has reached its bitter end.
2. Conflict of Interest: USAID and Compromised Moslem Judges
An Egyptian moslem judge is ordering President Trump to continue stealing money from American taxpayers and continue sending it to his ancestral Egypt.
Egypt is a country actively collaborating with Islamic terrorists in Gaza. And USAID has funneled $30 billion to Egypt since 1978.
Out of the three federal judges who staged a judicial coup and demanded the Trump administration do whatever they say, two, Judge Loren AliKhan, a Pakistani, and Judge Amir Hatem Mahdy Ali, an Egyptian, are moslems.
All three are highly unqualified and extremist Obiden nominees who do not belong on the U.S. bench.
Judge Amir Ali’s order that Trump must disburse foreign aid is particularly egregious since Ali’s ancestral Egypt remains a major beneficiary of that aid.
Judges do not run our beloved country. And certainly, foreign nationals like Ali—born to Egyptian immigrants in Canada—DO NOT.
3. The Insanity of the Left: They Hate That America Now Has Responsible Leadership
Craving empty words and bankrupt ideas—the Left is screaming that President Trump is on some kind of ideological crusade.
Recent headlines:
– Trump and Musk’s Purge Isn’t Cost Cutting — It’s a Coup;
– Doge is About Ideology and Mindless Budget Cutting;
– Elon Musk’s Indiscriminate Carnage;
– Dems Must Stand Up Against the Bully in the White House.
We the People can analogize this insanity to labeling a company CEO ideological because he is driven to keep his company profitable and competitive.
In other words, protecting taxpayers and running the country efficiently is anti-Leftist.
But forgiving $189 billion of student loan debt—done under [Obiden]—and dumping it all on taxpayers is not. Or government spending trillions and larding it all onto the federal debt rather than raising taxes is not.
The failure of socialism is politicians seizing more and more power and taking less and less responsibility.
When government expands at the expense of individual freedom, productivity and creativity suffer, and economic growth shrinks.
These are not words. They are quantitative results.
Ideology is about words—slogans with no reality check. Business is about numbers, measurement and performance.
The top 25% of countries in overall economic freedom scores have average per capita income of $52,777 which is 7.6 times higher than average per capita income of the lowest 25% of $6,968.
Our beloved country had been momentarily led astray.
Those on the left who are verbally assaulting the new Trump administration are the ideologues. They are in love with empty words and bankrupt ideas.
Fortunately, we now have tough and courageous leadership willing to do the very hard work of getting a great country that has been led astray back on track.
4. Opinion: Trading Soybeans for Computers—Why We Need Tariffs on China
America has a $295B trade deficit with Communist China—the majority of our exports to China are raw products like petroleum and soybeans—we send corn and sorghum to China, they ship back batteries and toys.
Advanced societies buy raw resources from backward societies and sell them back the manufactured goods. America’s leadership since the 1970s has sold our beloved country down the river.
China is not a consumer economy with exports, it is a parasitic export economy that suppresses domestic consumption with high consumer taxes.
During the pandemic, America focused on stimulating consumer spending while China ignored individual citizens to boost manufacturing.
In America, consumer spending drives growth whereas in China’s Communist system, consumer spending is an inconvenience that siphons off products meant for foreign exports.
The Trump administration is being accused of setting off a trade war with China, but China’s entire economy is one big trade war against America and the entire world.
Unlike Japan or South Korea, China is not trying to build up a middle class and views domestic consumption of its own products as a necessary evil at best and as capitalistic excess at worst.
This is not a trade war. It is a war carried on using trade as the ultimate weapon.
President Trump’s tariffs on China are being bitterly opposed by a range of special interest groups, but they harken back to Alexander Hamilton’s original proposal to use tariffs to restrict foreign products and boost domestic manufacturing. Trump is following in the footsteps of George Washington by refusing to let America’s economy remain subservient to China.
America was built on tariffs and trade wars. Without them, we would have been a third world country. With them, we can start rebuilding our economy and our nation.
5. House Passes Budget Resolution, Moving Trump ‘Blueprint’ to Senate
President Trump is one step closer to delivering his “big, beautiful bill” with $4.5 trillion in tax breaks and $2 trillion in spending cuts.
The vote was 217-215, with all communists/globalists opposed, and the outcome was in jeopardy until the gavel. Rep. Thomas Massie (?-KY) wound up the lone vote against the bill from those who were elected as Republicans.
After passage, Speaker Johnson and other House Republican leaders issued a joint statement:
Today, House Republicans moved Congress closer to delivering on President Trump’s full America First agenda—not just parts of it.
Among the provisions, the measure increases the debt ceiling, and extends Trump’s signature tax cuts, while also providing funds for border security and national defense initiatives of the current administration.
6. Surprise, Surprise, Surprise: Left-Wing Groups Funded Anti-DOGE Protests at Republican Town Halls
The so-called backlash to Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) project on display at recent Republican town halls was actually astroturfed by Left-wing organizations.
According to a report from the Washington Free Beacon, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and CBS News all reported the protests as if they were organic opposition to President Trump’s attempt to reduce wasteful government spending.
MoveOn said:
[I]ts ‘members and allies will show up at congressional-led town halls and congressional offices around the country, targeting House Republicans whose votes will be crucial in opposing Trump and Musk’s harmful policies.
Indivisible issued a ‘Musk or Us Recess Toolkit’ that showed members how to find their local town halls and urged them to ‘take the fight to Elon.’
Local organizers used the tools to launch protests pretending to be Republicans, gaining local and national media attention.
