Finally, a president who isn't afraid to exercise his constitutional authority. Draining the swamp isn't just a slogan—it's action!

Say what you will, but at least he's shaking things up. The elites hate him because he’s doing what they never dared to.

It's not news, it's a distraction.

Another round of executive actions benefiting the powerful. When will we see real policies for working families instead of favors for the elite?

Uncommitted Movement Pushes Harris Campaign for Gaza Ceasefire

Pro-Gaza organizers say they're looking to have language in the party's platform explicitly supporting a permanent cease-fire and an "immediate arms embargo on Israel's assault and occupation against Palestinians." They're also seeking to engage with Harris, her campaign, Mr. Biden and White House administrative staff working on Gaza-related policy. After meeting with Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last week, Harris said that "Israel has a right to defend itself," but "how it does so matters." She added that she pushed the prime minister to get a cease-fire deal done, that she will "not be silent" about the casualties in Gaza and that she supports a two-state solution. "To everyone who has been calling for a cease-fire and to everyone who yearns for peace, I see you and I hear you," she said. "Let's get the deal done so we can get a ceasefire to end the war. Let's bring the hostages home. And let's provide much-needed relief to the Palestinian people."Waleed Shahid, an advisor to the "uncommitted" movement, said while Harris' empathy towards Palestinians is a "step in the right direction, people just want a policy change to stop the supply of American bombs to Israel's war."In addition to advocating for a U.S. policy change of restricting weapons for Israel, the group's focus at the convention is getting a five-minute speaking slot for Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan, a pediatric intensive care physician who has worked on the ground in Gaza. They are also looking for a similar speaking slot for one of their delegates.

Donald Trump’s transition chief says appointees must prove ‘loyalty’

Donald Trump’s transition team co-chair has warned that people appointed to the former president’s next administration must prove their “loyalty” and slammed the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 as “radioactive”. Howard Lutnick, who is also the head of investment firm Cantor Fitzgerald, told the Financial Times that Trump would execute his agenda at a “speed no one’s ever done before” if he was elected again in November. But after the infighting and staff turnover that characterised the Republican nominee’s first term in office, Lutnick said appointees to a new Trump administration would need to show “fidelity” to the agenda and the president himself.“Those people were not pure to his vision,” Lutnick said, referring to senior advisers who quit Trump’s White House or became hostile to his presidency. “They’re all going to be on the same side, and they’re all going to understand the policies, and we’re going to give people the role based on their capacity — and their fidelity and loyalty to the policy, as well as to the man.” In an interview in New York, Lutnick also dismissed Project 2025, the controversial blueprint for the Trump administration created by conservative think-tank the Heritage Foundation.

California bans legacy admissions at private colleges

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill prohibiting private nonprofit colleges from granting admission advantages to students whose parents donated or attended the same school on Monday.The law impacts a few private universities that still consider family connections in admissions. USC, Stanford, Claremont McKenna and Harvey Mudd colleges were among those that still embraced the practice, according to the Los Angeles Times.“In California, everyone should be able to get ahead through merit, skill, and hard work. The California Dream shouldn’t be accessible to just a lucky few, which is why we’re opening the door to higher education wide enough for everyone, fairly,” Newsom said in a statement.California State universities and the University of California system don’t practice legacy admissions, the latter having done away with the practice in 1998.Though California has made legacy and donor admissions illegal, there is no specific punishment for universities violating it, according to the bill’s current text, aside from California’s Department of Justice posting “the names of the independent institutions of higher education that violate the prohibition on its internet website by the next fiscal year.”An earlier version of the bill would have forced colleges to pay money matching the amount they received in Cal Grant payments if the rules were violated.

Democrats Under Fire: Congressman Warns Party Is Losing the American Dream to the “Woke Left”

Democratic Congressman Tom Suozzi wrote today:"In this election, Americans have made their voice clear: Democrats need to focus more on issues Americans care about, like wages and benefits, and less on being politically correct. Moderate White, Black, Hispanic, Asian, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, union, non-union, and other voters fear that the world we live in and the values we live by are under threat, and Democrats have been too intimidated to speak up for the same values that many of us hold dear — the American Dream, public safety and a common sense of right and wrong among them. Many Americans are simply afraid of "the Left" more than they are afraid of what President Trump will do. While some Democrats effectively responded to Republican's claims of chaos at the Southern border, we still ceded too much ground to the Republicans on an issue we could have won. And we failed as a party to respond to the Republican weaponization of anarchy on college campuses, defund the police, biological boys playing in girls' sports, and a general attack on traditional values. Going forward, we need to make the case every day that we will fight to give everyone a fair shake and that America is for everybody. We cannot get wrapped around the axle by our base and resistance politics."
