Aug 12, 2026 ~ 'Jobless Claims Remain Below 200,000 For Third Straight Week—First Time in 57 Years'   "Jobless claims have been below 200,000 for three consecutive weeks, the first such streak in 57 years. The last time jobless claims remained this low for this long was in 1969, during the extraordinary stretch of low unemployment from 1967 through 1969. The current numbers are all the more extraordinary because the workforce is more than twice as large and the last period’s labor numbers benefited from a military draft to support the Vietnam War." [Economy, Trump Win]
Aug 12, 2026 ~ "Report: Democrats Spent $20M on Healthcare Program for Just 173 Migrants"   What the hell? The Federal Government is going broke fast with record national debt and everyday Americans are struggling to pay their own healthcare bills. So what do the Democrats do? Spend tens of millions of dollars that we don't really have on non-citizens. This would cost over $100 million in the end but Trump is putting a stop to it!

Aug 15, 2026 ~ 'How illegals plunder American billions, in broad daylight' "And how Democrats enabled every dollar plundered."   "Around 30 million illegals (plus natural-born citizen children) milk the entire American economy, and every handout agency in Washington, for hundreds of billions annually. Much of it is remitted to their home countries, from Mexico to China to Somalia."   "Thanks to St. Barack, we also got about 220,000 Somalis, who think plundering “rival clans” (such as America) is honorable. So we get $18 billion in Somali fraud, just in one state. Never mind the billions in welfare fraud, in California and every other blue state." [Debt, Deficit, Economy, Illegal Immigration, Politics]
Sep 4, 2026 ~ 'Breitbart Business Digest: The Trump Manufacturing Boom Gets Even Stronger'   "Orders are rising, factories are turning out more capital equipment, job openings are soaring, and purchasing managers say the expansion continued in August. Four reports released over the past few weeks approach the factory sector from different directions. All of them found accelerating strength in durable goods, the core of U.S. manufacturing." See the report for all the details. [Economy, Trump Win]
Sep 12, 2026 ~ "How to Waste $9 Trillion to NOT 'Save the Planet'"   So far the world has flushed $9 Trillion down the toilet. It has not even had a measurable effect. But fear not. "According to the UN, Climate Policy Initiative 'estimates that an average of USD 7.8 trillion a year will be needed through 2030 ... to stay on track.'" Almost $8 Trillion a year to also have no effect.   Imagine what we could have used $9 Trillion and the future trillions for! The world better wake up before we're all totally bankrupt.

Sep 19, 2026 ~ "Boomity - EPA Eliminates 'Greenhouse Gas' Rule"   Another vitally important accomplishment of the Trump Administration. "The Environmental Protection Agency said Monday it is repealing rules that limit planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions from power plants fueled by coal and natural gas and announced it is taking a separate but related step to prevent future administrations from regulating climate pollution from power plants."   Revoking the Biden-era power plant rule would save industry more than $300 billion in costs and help “unleash” American energy, the EPA said. The change will allow utilities to “make the best decision for the ratepayers based on cost and cost savings, instead of being required to shut down facilities,’' said EPA Assistant Administrator Aaron Szabo. In an era where Americans are struggling with affordability and energy prices, Trump just saved us $300 billion! That will be very helpful going forward. [Economy, Energy, Trump Win]
Sep 26, 2026 ~ 'Hamburger was more expensive under Obama. So was gasoline'   Trump and Republicans are getting hit in the polls due to the affordability issue even though most of the inflation happened under Biden. For perspective, "In real (inflation-adjusted) terms, hamburger was $8.83/pound in February 2015 during Obama’s reign; it was only $8.57 in August 2026." "In real terms, eggs are now $2.127/dozen. They were $4.14/dozen (adjusted for inflation) in August 2015. Where was the howling and hand-wringing then?" "But if gasoline prices are the sole metric for those capable only of one-stage thinking, how is it that the electorate is being conditioned with histrionics about $4.36/gallon gasoline when it was $5.90 under Obama in May 2011 (inflation-adjusted), $5.82 under Biden in June 2022 (inflation-adjusted), and $6.30 under George W. Bush. [Economy, Politics]
Sep 27, 2026 ~ 'Trump Terminates Biden's EV Mandate, Promises Cheaper Cars for American Families'   A huge victory for consumers and the economy! Trump announces: “BIG DAY FOR AMERICAN AUTO WORKERS AND CAR BUYERS! I have just approved new Fuel Economy Standards that TERMINATE Sleepy Joe Biden and Pete Boot-EDGE-EDGE's ridiculous EV Mandate. The Dumocrats cost our Great Auto Manufacturers $Billions, forced Americans into cars they never wanted, and wasted Billions on Chargers that were never built. These new Standards will take the waste out of ⁠building cars in America. That means LOWER PRICES, saving families thousands on a new, beautiful, and safe car. Far better than the Environmental Monsters that we were building heretofore. Every Manufacturer, from General Motors to Ford to Stellantis, has called me wanting to build here, and now they can!” [Climate Change, Economy, Regulations, Trump Win]
