Energy Secretary Chris Wright outlines nine pillars for “American energy dominance” including nuclear expansion, grid strengthening, and critical minerals development. Amazingly, the team he needs to deliver it were told to take early retirement or they would be part of a reduction in force.

The premise of all the concern over pediatric transgender medicine is that it's being given too quickly to too many children, and I continue to find it odd that every scrap of evidence I can find suggests that this isn't happening and never was.

Every business owner should do this. Make Trump own it. He expects biz owners to weather the backlash on his behalf because he thinks Americans works for him and not the other way around.
White House says Amazon's decision to desplay tariff-based price increases on products is a "a hostile and political act by Amazon," who they accuse of working with "a Chinese propaganda arm."

Bessent is really awkward in press conferences and I think it’s because you can’t lie with this frequency and density on Wall Street and not risk fines, lawsuits, or prison.

For the Daily Beast, I wrote about the coward Jeff Bezos: "I know a line on a receipt is a small thing, but capitulation always starts small. With that small thing, Bezos has granted the President of the United States veto power over how he runs his business. "

Dem leaders and operatives saying “focus on pocketbook issues,” completely miss that due process *is* a pocketbook issue.
Tourists, students, investors, citizens all depend on rule of law.
Just because lawlessness is state-sponsored, doesn’t mean it ain’t crime, and crime is bad for the economy.

A DOGE MYSTERY!
I'm trying to find OPM request for proposal #47QFEA24K0008.
DOGE says they saved $318,310,328 by cancelling it. But OPM won't release this doc, and it's not listed in govt databases.
