Trump to NATO: President Trump heads to this week's NATO summit with a strengthened hand after securing allies' commitments to increase defense spending and helping broker a ceasefire that ended the Iran war. According to the Associated Press, Trump will press NATO members to follow through on their pledge to spend 5% of GDP on defense while also meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and other world leaders as the alliance confronts ongoing challenges from Russia and instability in the Middle East.
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool will need millions of dollars in repairs after vandals damaged the site during recent protests. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said crews found serious damage to the pool’s systems and stonework, and President Trump is now ordering repairs to one of the nation’s most recognizable landmarks.
Michigan's Democratic Senate primary has become a two-candidate showdown after state Sen. Mallory McMorrow unexpectedly suspended her campaign just weeks before the primary. Her exit leaves moderate Rep. Haley Stevens and progressive Abdul El-Sayed battling for the nomination in one of the nation's most important Senate races, with the winner set to face Republican Mike Rogers.
Thank you for reading.
This is the sickness. The radical left cannot simply oppose Trump politically. It must sabotage, smear, litigate, leak, protest, and even damage symbols of the country if those symbols become part of his America 250 revival. The Reflecting Pool sits between Lincoln and Washington. It is not a campaign prop. It is American memory in water and stone. Yet the same crowd that lectures about “democracy” treats national monuments like disposable theater sets. Patriots should see the pattern clearly: managed decline is not always incompetence. Sometimes it is vandalism with ideology behind it. Repair the pool. Prosecute the vandals. Honor the Republic.
Make the jackarse that cut the pool pay first the damages, why should We the People have to pay for his arrogance and hatred for America & President Trump!
