Summary

Story 1: Democratic Judge and Gang Member

  • Trend: The Democratic Party is allegedly protecting radical gangs and terrorists.
  • Incident: A Democratic judge in New Mexico resigned after immigration agents arrested a gang member living in his home.
  • Details: The gang member, a Venezuelan national, was illegally in possession of firearms and had ties to a violent gang. He was released due to overcrowding and later moved to New Mexico.
  • Evidence: Social media posts showed the gang member with the judge, and graphic images of mutilated bodies were found on his phone.
  • Outcome: The judge resigned, but it's unclear if he or his wife will face charges.

Story 2: Trump and Retailers Discuss Tariffs

  • Event: President Donald Trump met with major US retailers to discuss tariffs.
  • Participants: Retailers included Walmart, Home Depot, Lowe's, and Target.
  • Discussion: Tariffs on imported goods, especially from China, and their impact on American consumers and workers.
  • Support: CEOs of major companies expressed support for Trump's economic policies, highlighting potential long-term benefits despite short-term challenges.
  • Objective: Shift towards American manufacturing and reduce reliance on cheap imported goods.

Story 3: Wasteful Spending in Education

  • Issue: Wasteful spending in teacher training programs focused on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) rather than traditional education.
  • Action: The Department of Education shut down these programs and redirected funds.
  • Critique: The Department of Education is accused of indoctrinating rather than educating students.
  • Solution: Return to basics like reading, writing, and arithmetic, and incorporate technology to better prepare students for the future.
