During my First Term, few were more effective or tenacious than Peter in enforcing my two sacred rules, Buy American, Hire American. He helped me renegotiate unfair Trade Deals like NAFTA and

The Washington Post’s national security reporter is unimpressed with Pete Hegseth’s 20-plus awards and commendations during his two combat tours, emails obtained Wednesday by Breitbart News reveal.
The Post’s Alex Horton, a national security reporter, pushed back Tuesday on Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s characterization of Hegseth, Donald Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Defense, as “highly decorated” for his military service.“Can you help me understand what highly decorated means in this release?” Horton asked Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s staff in response to an op-ed Tuberville wrote praising Hegseth.

UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was accused of insider trading and fraud by the Department of Justice before he was assassinated on Wednesday in Manhattan.
Thompson, 50, was shot dead in what NYPD officials believe was a targeted attack as he exited the Hilton hotel before an investor conference. His killer remains on the loose.
Last year the DoJ launched a probe into whether the nation's biggest insurer, led by Thompson, was unfairly restricting competitors and running a monopoly. Then in October, the City of Hollywood Firefighters’ Pension Fund in May initiated a complaint against the company against Thompson and other executives, accusing the CEO of failing to tell investors

As the Biden regime prepares to exit, it has orchestrated a move as a cunning attempt to undermine the incoming Trump administration’s agenda to streamline government operations.
In a last-minute deal, the Biden regime has locked in telework protections for 42,000 Social Security Administration (SSA) employees until 2029.
The agreement, reached with the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), ensures remote work privileges for these federal workers for the next five years, despite the Trump administration’s explicit plans to slash such arrangements, according to Bloomberg.

At a noisy holiday party, a friend pulled me aside for a quiet conversation. He’s long been a major Democratic donor in New York and nationally but has grown increasingly disenchanted with the party’s far-left policies.
“You were right about Trump,” he whispered, before delivering the bombshell: “And I voted for him.”
We shook hands and laughed.
The election resulted in numerous Dems switching sides, but my friend’s conversion stands out because it shows Trump cut into the top ranks of the party hierarchy. And the conversation came even before President Biden’s pardon proved another shock to Dem officials and their propaganda outlets.

The California federal judge overseeing Hunter Biden’s tax charges issued a scathing five-page ruling in response to President Joe Biden’s pardon of his son, saying that the president justified his pardon with reasons that are false and offensive.
Judge Mark C. Scarsi wrote Tuesday that the reasons listed in “the President’s statement” for pardoning his son “stand in tension with the case record,” and while the president has the power to pardon, “nowhere does the Constitution give the President the authority to rewrite history.”
“The President asserts that Mr. Biden ‘was treated differently’

President Joe Biden, when he pardoned his son, conceded his own Department of Justice (DOJ) is politically motivated, attorneys for President-elect Donald Trump wrote in a Monday filing.
In their latest motion to dismiss Trump’s New York case, defense attorneys pointed to Biden’s claim that his son was “selectively, and unfairly, prosecuted” with political motives that lead to a “miscarriage of justice” as further justification for ending proceedings. “These comments amounted to an extraordinary condemnation of President Biden’s own DOJ,” Trump’s attorneys wrote. “This is the same DOJ that coordinated and oversaw the politically-motivated, election-interference witch hunts targeting President Trump by disgraced Special Counsel Jack Smith,
