HAPPY FRIDAY FELLOW PATRIOTS!

Clayton here. Before we dive into today's newsletter, I have some good news. Our Trump Tracker team is growing!

As the list keeps growing, so does our need for high-quality writers and news curators, so I would love to introduce you to a valued member of our team - Nick Weston!

Between myself, Nick, and Mike, we will be tag-teaming the 'Trump Tracker' newsletter and bringing you the news every week! I am going to be dedicating a tad more time to our YouTube channel (we're growing like a weed!)

So this team expansion is going to help us immensely.

To get further acquainted, here's Nick now to give a brief overview of just what happened with inflation….

👊 Nick Weston here from Washington, D.C.!

First off, I'm fired up to join Clayton and Mike on the Trump Tracker team to help keep you locked in as President Trump drives America into the GOLDEN AGE.

Now, straight in to today's headline:

Inflation just took a nosedive—and President Trump's America First agenda is leading the charge.

The new numbers are in: Inflation fell to 2.4% last month—smashing expectations and marking the first real drop in consumer prices in years.

Here are the big wins:

Prescription drug prices - slashed like never before.
Gas prices - tumbling coast to coast.
Airfare and car costs - dropping, giving working families a break.

This is what leadership looks like, and we're just getting warmed up.

Stay tuned—there's plenty more ahead!

Hey Team! 😎

Global elites thought they could bully America with trade threats and market scares.

Wrong call. China's retaliation just handed President Trump a chance to double down, isolating Beijing while the U.S. flexes its muscle.

This isn't a trade war - it's a masterclass in putting American workers first.

The fight's heating up, and the world is watching.

More on China's tariff tantrum below!

💰 FAMILY SAVINGS SURGE: President Trump's economic policies are projected to save a family of four nearly $11,000 over several years through tax relief and lower costs. White House officials highlight that reducing regulatory burdens has cut expenses on energy and goods, boosting household budgets. Critics argue the benefits skew toward wealthier Americans, citing narrower gains for lower earners. Supporters counter that job growth in manufacturing and small businesses will lift all incomes. The administration insists these savings mark a return to prosperity for the middle class.

📉 TAX CUT AT RISK: If Congress fails to extend Trump's tax cuts, set to expire soon, the average American could face a $2,600 annual tax hike, hitting families and small businesses hardest. Without action, rates would spike across income brackets, undoing years of relief for workers and entrepreneurs. Lawmakers are split, with Republicans pushing permanence and Democrats eyeing targeted tweaks for lower earners. Failing to act could stall economic momentum, especially for retailers banking on consumer spending. Trump's team warns that letting cuts lapse would betray the middle class.

🇺🇸 INFLATION TAMED: America's economic comeback is gaining steam, with growth surging while inflation stays below 2%, defying fears of runaway prices. Strong job numbers and rising wages signal resilience, even as global trade tensions loom. Economists credit Trump's deregulation and energy policies for keeping costs in check, unlike the Biden-era spikes. Some warn that tariff risks could heat things up, but for now, shoppers are seeing stable prices at stores. The administration calls this a win for everyday Americans rebuilding their savings.

🛡️ DEFENSE SALES REFORM: Trump's new reforms aim to streamline foreign defense sales, cutting red tape to speed up deliveries while tightening accountability. The goal is to boost U.S. arms exports, strengthening allies and creating jobs at home. Pentagon officials say delays once cost billions in deals, frustrating partners like Poland and Taiwan. Critics flag risks of lax oversight fueling conflicts, but the White House insists robust checks remain. Manufacturers, like Lockheed Martin, cheer the move as a lifeline for defense hubs.

💸 Trump's Tariff Play: Beating Beijing at Its Own Game 💸

President Trump's trade strategy just hit a new gear, with China raising tariffs on U.S. goods to 125% in retaliation for his 125% levy on their exports. Beijing's move, announced yesterday, targets American farmers and manufacturers, but Trump's 90-day tariff pause for other nations has isolated China while drawing allies closer.

Over 75 countries are now negotiating with the U.S., eager for deals after Trump slashed most tariffs to 10%. This isn't a stumble - it's a calculated play to reshape global trade.

Markets took a wild ride last week when Trump first unveiled his tariff plan, sparking fears of a global slump. China's escalation, with Foreign Ministry's Lin Jian declaring, "No one wins a trade war," aimed to hit U.S. exports like soybeans hard. But Trump doubled down, posting on Truth Social, "China will pay a big price for disrespecting our markets."

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, speaking to Fox Business, called it "a brilliant pivot," noting that China's allies, like Japan, are siding with U.S. terms. By contrast, Beijing's state media warned of "mutual destruction," while X users split - some hailed Trump's audacity, others fretted over grocery costs.

The fallout's already shifting. Japan and the EU, spared from Trump's tariff hammer, saw their markets climb 6-9%, while Canada's trade minister praised the "breathing room." China, meanwhile, faces pressure as its export-driven economy wobbles without reciprocal deals.

Trump, unfazed, told reporters at Mar-a-Lago, "I've got 'em right where I want 'em." His team - Bessent, Howard Lutnick, and Elon Musk - is crafting tailored trade pacts to lock in U.S. leverage. With DOGE slashing waste and deportations rolling, Trump's betting this trade gambit will juice American jobs and keep prices steady.

This is Trump at his boldest: shaking the board, then owning the game. Ninety days to rewrite trade rules? He's halfway there.
