| Check out all the latest developments and more below! | | | | | 🇺🇸 Trump Marks One Year and Claims Every Promise Kept One year after returning to the Oval Office, President Trump's team says he has delivered on every major campaign promise, from securing the border and ending Biden-era inflation to rolling back DEI and restoring U.S. strength abroad. Karoline Leavitt highlighted more than 225 executive orders in 12 months—more than the 220 he signed across his entire first term—targeting illegal immigration, urban crime, and energy deregulation to "unleash" U.S. production. Customs and Border Protection reported zero parole releases in December 2025, down from 7,041 a year earlier under Biden, and encounters at the start of the new fiscal year hit their lowest level on record, which DHS chief Kristi Noem calls proof of the "most secure" border in U.S. history. On the economy, Trump points to inflation dropping to 2.7%, mortgage rates easing off Biden-era highs, gas prices falling to about $2.67 a gallon, and new trade deals—including a July 2025 pact with South Korea that lowered tariffs and brought in hundreds of billions in investment and energy purchases—as evidence his "Golden Age" agenda is taking shape. He has also leaned on tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, pushed LNG exports by reversing Biden's pause, and used June strikes on Iran plus the January capture of Nicolás Maduro as examples of his "peace through strength" doctrine backed by real-world action. | 📊 GOP Bets on Trump as 'Secret Weapon' Republican National Committee Chair Joe Gruters is calling President Trump the GOP's "secret weapon" to defy midterm history, even as national polls show his approval in the low-40s and underwater with the broader public. Surveys from outlets like the Wall Street Journal, Reuters/Ipsos, and RealClearPolitics averages put Trump roughly 10–15 points below water overall, with Republican pollster Daron Shaw warning that erosion among independents could cost the party House and Senate seats. Democrats argue their 2025 off-year wins and special-election overperformances were powered by a relentless focus on affordability amid persistent inflation, and they say Trump is now vulnerable on the very economic issues that helped elect him in 2024. GOP leaders counter that Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" tax cuts and his messaging on inflation, jobs, and illegal immigration still give Republicans the edge, provided they can actually turn out MAGA voters who often stay home when his name is not on the ballot. Gruters says Trump is already barnstorming key battlegrounds, insisting "there's nobody that can energize our base more," while Shaw notes that, unlike the pre-Trump era, the turnout question in 2026 hangs more over Republicans than Democrats.
💬 Trump Says Media Obsessed with ICE Protests President Trump is hammering national media for what he calls an obsession with anti-ICE protests in Minnesota while major corruption allegations inside the state's programs go largely uncovered. He argues that cameras and headlines linger on church-based demonstrations and confrontations with federal agents but gloss over large-scale fraud schemes involving nonprofits and state-managed funds. Trump says this imbalance effectively shields Minnesota Democrats from scrutiny by turning the story into one about protest optics instead of taxpayer money being siphoned off through shell organizations. In his telling, the real scandal is not ICE enforcement but the years of oversight failures that allegedly allowed millions to be stolen or misused. He is using the Minnesota fight to press his broader case that immigration enforcement and anti-fraud crackdowns go hand in hand, and that hostile coverage of ICE conveniently distracts from those deeper problems.
✈️ Trump Invites Putin into Gaza Peace Mix President Trump has invited Russian President Vladimir Putin and Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko to join a proposed Gaza "board of peace," bringing two controversial players into a forum he envisions for cease-fire and reconstruction talks. The invitations come as Gaza negotiations stall and regional tensions remain high, with Trump pitching the board as a place where major power brokers can coordinate on stabilizing the enclave and enforcing any eventual deal. Russia and Belarus have acknowledged the outreach and signaled willingness to participate, seeing it as a way to assert their diplomatic roles alongside the United States. Trump's move folds his long-running outreach to Moscow and Minsk into the Gaza file, arguing that sidelining them has not stopped conflict or proxy involvement. The White House is framing the proposed board as a practical way to bring all the real decision-makers to the table, even if their inclusion is certain to spark criticism at home and among traditional U.S. allies. |

| | | | | | 🔔 Trump's Greenland Push Sparks International Panic🔔 | President Trump is set to arrive at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, this week, carrying tariff threats against NATO allies into the global summit. His push for U.S. acquisition of Greenland, a Danish territory, has sparked backlash after several NATO members sent troops there in response to his overtures. Trump announced Saturday that Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland will face 10% tariffs on all goods starting February 1, rising to 25% by June 1 unless a Greenland deal is reached. | He argues the island's strategic position is vital for U.S. national security, including missile defense, early-warning systems, and Arctic surveillance amid growing Russian and Chinese activity. Greenland holds vast natural resources like oil and natural gas, and its location along emerging shipping lanes makes it a potential foothold for adversaries if not under American control. | In late-night Truth Social posts, Trump doubled down, telling NATO that Denmark has failed for 20 years to counter the Russian threat near Greenland and that now is the time for action. He texted Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre that after Norway's Nobel Committee snubbed him for Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado, despite stopping eight wars, he no longer feels bound to think "purely of Peace." | | Trump wrote that Denmark lacks any real ownership claim beyond historical boat landings and demanded "complete and total control" of Greenland for U.S. interests, including a "Golden Dome" defense shield like Israel's. Støre confirmed the texts, reiterating Norway's support for Denmark's sovereignty over Greenland while backing NATO steps to bolster Arctic security. The eight nations issued a joint statement Sunday calling Trump's tariffs a risk to transatlantic ties and a potential "downward spiral." | EU diplomats in Brussels debated retaliation but prioritized de-escalation talks with Washington. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte confirmed a recent call with Trump and looks forward to meeting him in Davos. Trump has attended Davos twice before during his first term, using the platform to advance America First priorities. | White House officials emphasize Greenland's importance for protecting against modern Arctic threats from Russia and China, noting existing U.S. assets like Pituffik Space Base for missile warning. Greenlanders and Denmark have rejected U.S. control, with the territory pushing for independence from Copenhagen. Trump frames NATO's role as owing America after his contributions since its founding. The Davos trip comes as Trump marks one year back in office, blending trade leverage with security demands in a high-stakes Arctic showdown. | | |  | Trump looks on prior to a game between the Miami Hurricanes and the Indiana Hoosiers in the 2026 College Football Playoff National Championship at Hard Rock Stadium on January 19, 2026 in Miami Gardens, Florida |
| | 🍟 Quick Bite News 🍟 | 🇻🇪 After a meeting with President Trump, Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado said her country will "eventually" hold free and fair elections, crediting his pressure campaign and sanctions for weakening Nicolás Maduro's grip on power. She described Trump's support as crucial for isolating the regime diplomatically and choking off revenue streams that kept Maduro afloat. Machado framed the path ahead as long but argued that sustained U.S. backing under Trump gives the opposition its best chance in years to force a legitimate vote. | 💰 Elon Musk has poured a staggering $10 million into a Kentucky Senate race, backing a pro-Trump business outsider running against an entrenched political figure. The money, funneled through a Musk-aligned PAC, is funding a heavy media and ground game operation built around deregulation, tech-friendly growth, and alignment with Trump's America First economic agenda. Strategists say the race is becoming an early test of how much Trump-era populism plus billionaire backing can reshape Republican primaries in red states. | 💬 Trump's DOJ put former CNN anchor Don Lemon "on notice" after allegations that he joined anti-ICE protesters who stormed Cities Church in St. Paul during Sunday service, chanting "ICE out" and accusing the pastor of ICE ties. DOJ Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon warned that a house of worship is protected from such disruptions under federal laws and that the First Amendment does not shield Lemon's "pseudo journalism" of interrupting prayer, adding the FBI has been activated for potential FACE Act violations.
🏈 President Trump congratulated both Indiana and Miami ahead of their CFP national title matchup, saying each program earned its spot and wishing that "the best team win." He praised their coaching staffs, defenses, and high-powered offenses, tying their success to what he calls a strong American sports culture and booming college football environment. Trump has frequently used big sporting events to highlight his administration's support for college athletics, NIL reforms, and stadium investments in swing states. | ⚖️ Senator Elizabeth Warren has launched a probe into several major banks over their role in Trump-era Venezuela oil transactions, demanding records on deals she says may have skirted or exploited sanctions to facilitate crude sales. Her inquiry asks whether financial institutions profited from arrangements negotiated under Trump that moved Venezuelan oil into global markets while Maduro remained in power. Warren argues the public deserves to know if Wall Street treated the sanctions regime as a loophole-ridden business opportunity and promises hearings if the documents raise red flags. | God bless,
