“The same issues that drove the Founders to declare independence from the Crown in 1776 drove 77 million Americans to the polls in 2024: heavy taxes, weak leadership, and an overreaching government numb to the needs of its citizens. President Trump won in a landslide victory by offering powerful solutions to each of these problems. He is the American people’s declaration of independence from business as usual in Washington. The president seeks to serve ‘the forgotten men and women of America.’ And the One Big, Beautiful Bill, which he signs into law today, is central to that mission.” [editor’s note: I know polishing turds is a big part of a cabinet secretary’s job, but you’d think Bessent, as a former Soros hedge fund manager, had enough money to retire rather than embarrass himself like this – TLK] (07/04/25)
