Description

The Trump administration wins a major legal battle as a federal appeals court clears the way for National Guard troops to deploy to Portland to protect immigration operations. President Trump and the Australian Prime Minister sign a new framework deal to boost rare earth mineral production and reduce China’s control over the global supply chain. The Trump administration carries out another strike on a suspected drug-smuggling vessel from South America, as former DHS Secretary Chad Wolf defends the aggressive new strategy and dismisses talk of regime change in Venezuela. Former Biden Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre promotes her new book Independent, explaining why she’s leaving the Democratic Party while still defending President Biden in eyebrow-raising fashion.

KJP says Biden traveled regularly. She's obviously thinking of his numerous extended weekends at the beach.

I live in Portland and own a small business. Our Rainbow Governor and Mayor are clueless, we've lost 40% of our businesses because of a lack of leadership. Thankful for Trump, grateful for an adult in the room to guide the toddlers.
