🇺🇸 Decisive Action and Threats

Good morning patriots, from bold moves on the world stage to a renewed focus on securing our nation and its values, this week's headlines reveal an administration in full command.

As President Trump's team makes historic progress—from advancing peace talks and modernizing our infrastructure to seizing record amounts of fentanyl—a growing number of threats are also being exposed, including a dangerous bill being pushed in California and a foreign government’s defiance on the border crisis.

Let’s lock in! 🔒👇

Starting off the weekend, Trump’s administration made significant strides across the board, from Vice President Vance’s push for peace in Ukraine and NASA's bold vision for space exploration to the FBI’s crackdown on violent criminals and foreign terrorists, demonstrating a wide-ranging commitment to national security and domestic progress.

JD VANCE: Vice President Vance and UK Foreign Secretary Lammy met with officials from Ukraine and other European nations to discuss a path to peace in the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.

Transportation Secretary Duffy: Announced that Duluth's air traffic control tower, which hasn't been upgraded since the 1950s, will receive new radars, telecom systems, satellite communications, and surface safety technology, thanks to a $12.5 billion down payment from President Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill."

NASA Acting Administrator Duffy: Announced the successful return of the Crew-10 mission from the International Space Station, highlighting that these crew missions are building blocks for a bold vision of human exploration that includes private space stations and eventual trips to the Moon and Mars.

Labor Secretary Chavez-DeRemer: Stated that the Department of Labor is committed to helping American manufacturers like Hexcel Corp, the country's only aerospace-grade carbon fiber company, thrive by building a skilled workforce to produce strategic materials for cars, airplanes, and military equipment.

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins: While at the Iowa State Fair, announced a $152 million investment from the U.S. Department of Agriculture for 19 rural development projects across Iowa.

Small Business Administrator Kelly Loeffler: Stated that the U.S. delegation was honored to attend President Nawrocki's inauguration in Warsaw, noting that Poland is a strong ally and partner with whom the United States shares values of democracy, sovereignty, and freedom.

Interior Secretary Doug Burgum: Stated that the future of state economies and the development of AI factories depend on low-cost, reliable energy, as artificial intelligence has become the largest capital investment for tech companies.

VA Secretary Doug Collins: During a speech at the DAV National Convention, he discussed the work his department is doing to improve services for veterans, acknowledging the progress made this year while noting that there is still much more to accomplish.

FBI Director Kash Patel: Highlighted the accomplishments of the Trump administration's first 200 days, which included the identification of 4,000 child victims, the arrests of 1,000 foreign terrorists and 1,600 violent criminals, and the seizure of 6,300 kilos of methamphetamine and a record 1,500 kilos of fentanyl.

DHS TRACKER: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) yesterday announced the arrest of several "criminal illegal aliens" for violent crimes, including a Guatemalan man suspected of a fatal hit-and-run in Pennsylvania and other individuals with convictions for attempted murder, manslaughter, and pedophilia.

For years, a war has been waged against America. Not by a foreign nation, but by narco-terrorist organizations just south of our border. During the Biden administration, the Mexican drug cartels flooded our communities with fentanyl, leaving a trail of death and destruction. It is a crisis that has escalated beyond law enforcement, demanding a real and decisive solution.

But what happens when the very government that should be our partner in this fight becomes an obstacle? Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is now lashing out at reports about how the Trump administration is finally willing to take direct military action against the cartels.

Her response was swift and defiant: "We cooperate," she says, "but there will be no invasion. That is off the table, absolutely off the table." She talks of "collaboration," but her actions reveal a pattern of obstruction. She previously filed a constitutional amendment designed specifically to block any foreign military action on her soil, insisting her government will "not negotiate sovereignty."

The message is clear: while Americans die from drugs flowing across her border, the Mexican government is more concerned with political posturing than eradicating the cancer within its own country.

But a solution is reportedly on the way. According to reports, President Trump has secretly signed a directive authorizing the Pentagon to use military force against the cartels, which his administration deems terrorist organizations. This is the most aggressive and necessary step taken yet, providing the official basis for direct military operations at sea and on foreign soil.

While the Mexican president promises to block any meaningful action, this plan signals a fundamental shift: a willingness to bypass the political roadblocks and finally take the fight directly to the source. It is a decisive move that treats this crisis for what it is—a direct threat to American lives that requires American strength to defeat.

In California, there's a new bill making its way through the legislature, and parent advocates are calling it a "child trafficker's and kidnapper's dream bill."

They're calling it Assembly Bill 495, which is laughably titled the "Family Preparedness Plan." These California Democrats claim it's a compassionate tool to help immigrant families facing deportation. That sounds helpful, right? But the truth is much darker.

According to the CaliforniaGlobe, this bill creates terrifying legal loopholes. It allows a parent to sign over guardianship of their child to a "nonrelative extended family member" — which could be anyone — with what critics warn is "no background check, no welfare check, no court oversight, and no verification." A stranger can walk away with your child, armed with a simple piece of paper...

And it gets worse. This isn't just about immigration. The bill's language applies to any child for any reason. This new "guardian" would have the same rights as a parent to authorize medical care. That means abortions, puberty blockers, and irreversible sex-change operations for your child, all without your knowledge or consent.

This is a direct assault on parental rights, disguised as compassion. The bill's critics say it's not about helping families; it's about replacing parents with the state and creating a legal pathway for predators to operate in plain sight, leaving children scarred and disfigured for life.

Here’s a quick overview of some important NEW Legislation tackling foreign propaganda, quantum computer risks, intellectual property theft, and the rise of payment scams.

H.R. 4923: Proposes to impose sanctions on individuals who knowingly provide content or media services to foreign propaganda outlets that are under sanctions.

H.R. 4942: Directs the Subcommittee on the Economic and Security Implications of Quantum Information Science to submit reports on mitigating the cybersecurity and national security risks of certain quantum computers.

H.R. 4930: Seeks to expand the sharing of information regarding suspected violations of intellectual property rights in trade.

H.R. 4936: A bill which seeks to establish a task force to recognize and avert payment scams.
