This achievement has had a profound effect on our economy, in the form of jobs and affordable energy,” Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette writes in the Midland Reporter-Telegram. How does America’s economy today compare to our country under President Obama? “The sluggish first five months of the Obama-Biden recovery led to the slowest recovery in U.S. history,” financial expert Douglas Carr writes. “The Trump administration’s first five months of recovery are the nation’s fastest ever.” Read more in National Review.

Sanctuary Cities Undermine the RULE OF Law

The White House – February 14, 2020

Sanctuary Cities Undermine the Law

“On Jan, 6, 2020, 92-year-old Maria Fuentes was raped and murdered by Reeaz Khan, a 21-year-old illegal immigrant in New York City. But this tragedy was entirely preventable,” Scott Brady, a U.S. Attorney in Pennsylvania, writes in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.   “In fact, Khan should have been in custody at the time because six weeks earlier Khan was jailed and arrested for domestic violence charges. Because he was in the country illegally, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) filed a detainer that requested that the jail give ICE prior notice and the opportunity to detain Khan before the jail released him. Rather than honoring this request, New York officials released Khan. Had they honored the detainer, Ms. Fuentes might still be alive today.”   Click here to read more. “Two senators — one Republican and one Democrat — are leading a legislative effort to have a global women’s initiative spearheaded by President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka written into law . . .

Yet amazingly, Politico did not touch the story of this near-fatal, politically motivated attack on Republicans until the state GOP promised to retaliate—at the polls,” Becket Adams writes in the Washington Examiner.
