    https://www.politico.com/news/2025/...cal-left-lunatics-after-kirk-killing-00559170

    excerpt:

    Trump, who also had some more measured comments about Kirk’s killing during the roughly 10-minute exchange with reporters, said: “We have to be brave in life, in all fairness, we have a life. I probably shouldn’t be out here talking to you in all fairness but we will be brave. And we have a great country. We have radical left lunatics out there and we just have to beat the hell out of them.”

    Lutnick says economy will improve next year after Trump's tariffs come to fruition.


    Trump Commerce Sec Swears Struggling Economy Will Improve … Eventually

    excerpt:

    Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is jazzing up his song and dance to further distract from the cooling economy.

    Speaking with CNBC Thursday, the trade official hypothesized that the real benefits of Donald Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs would be realized very soon—that is to say, next year.

    “So now, everybody knows their tariff, right? So now you’re going to see factories getting built in America at a scale that you’ve never seen before,” Lutnick said. “More than $10 trillion of factory build coming. Alright? And so theres huge amount of construction jobs.”

    Factories being built next year if Trump can convince workers he deported to come back and train American workers how to build and run factories.

    Lutnick says Trump will take money that was issued to Harvard by Congress and use it to build vocational schools.


    Lutnick: Trump Wants Harvard to Build Vocational School

    excerpt:

    While no deal with Harvard has materialized yet, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told CNBC on Thursday that if one does, the $500 million could go toward vocational education.

    “If Harvard settles with Donald Trump, you know what he’s going to do with the $500 million?” Lutnick said. “He’s going to have Harvard build vocational schools. The Harvard vocational school, because that’s what America needs.”

    Trump is hijacking the role of Congress and spending the Congressional money as he pleases.

    Trump could just as well set up a program that funds vocational schools without starting wars with universities around the country.

    Trump still thinks that community colleges are trade schools.

    CBS appeases Trump.


    https://www.npr.org/2025/09/12/nx-s1-5537152/cbs-news-ellison-steps-appease-trump

    excerpt:

    "All of these decisions have come from top officials at Paramount under the new ownership of Skydance Media. And they represent a grand accommodation to Trump by CBS, known for its rich legacy of journalistic touchstones spanning back to the dawn of television news, including Edward R. Murrow, Walter Cronkite and 60 Minutes."

    In addition to George Soros, during the past few weeks Trump administration has targeted Bolton (the FBI raided his house and office). Trump fired Lisa Cook of the Federal Reserve. The DOJ started a probe against Adam Schiff. Trump suggested an investigation of Chris Christie.

    The connection between Trump's National Guard being sent to Memphis and the Union Pacific Railroad.


    https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/12/trump-memphis-union-pacific-00560868

    excerpt:

    "The CEO of one of the nation’s most powerful freight railroads met with President Donald Trump this week to make the case for an $85 billion merger that has drawn opposition from labor unions and energy companies.

    One surprising result: Trump’s latest effort to wield his military power as commander in chief to root out local crime — this time, in Memphis, Tennessee.

    It’s the latest example of how executives with ties to Trump can spark big policy changes, even on unrelated topics, by bending Trump’s ear."

    What the Assassination of Charlie Kirk Reveals About America
    Kirk’s ideology was dangerous and rooted in racism. Violence is never the answer, but his assassination does not erase that truth.
