Here's my wish list for the incoming Trump administration to make America healthy and prosperous and great again in 2025. These are admittedly bold aspirations for an economic transformation toward freedom and free enterprise. But the one person who can get it done is Trump.

In the weeks before the 2016 Trump Electoral College victory, Donald Trump was polling between 35 and 40 percent. He would average only about 41% approval over his tumultuous four-year tenure. No one knows what lies ahead over the next four years. But for now, Trump already polls well over 50% approval. His inauguration in a few weeks will likely not resemble Trump's 2016 ceremony.

The media long ago crafted its narrative that the world would end if Congress ever allowed even a short "Government Shut-Down," or any type of reduction in Federal Spending. The media, the Left, and the D.C. Swamp may refer to it as a "government shutdown," but most Americans – as evidenced by the last election – want a smaller, more efficient and fiscally responsible Federal Government. Yet here we are, once again, with the United States Congress putting its inability to manage its pocketbook on display for the whole world to see.

One of the highest priorities for the incoming Trump Administration should be to end the Democrats' weaponization of powerful government agencies against taxpayers and businesses. Nowhere has this mission been more pernicious than funding the IRS with nearly $80 billion and hire tens of thousands of new tax snoops. The additional audits have so far raised less than $2 billion, far less than the additional expenditures. So how is this program "paying for itself"?

The establishment is up in arms because Donald Trump nominated Tulsi Gabbard to be Director of National Intelligence, and I must admit something – I probably don’t agree with some of the things Tulsi allegedly thinks. I’m generally more hawkish, and she’s generally more dovish. Now, we have to put things in perspective, because what regime media says about Tulsi Gabbard and her beliefs probably has nothing to do with Tulsi Gabbard or her beliefs.

Dear President Trump: Your efforts to fast track an "All of the Above" approach on energy is exactly what this country needs – not just for U.S. Energy Independence, but also for American Energy Dominance and U.S. Energy Security. You won, so obviously we can, should, and will begin drilling again, but the lingering Big Question remains: "Why is Big Oil urging you NOT to Gut Joe Biden’s Climate Laws?" The answer may have something to do with money – i.e. Joe Biden's liberal "Inflation Reduction Act" money. Its worth billions to them.

Serving as the representative of Texas' 142nd District has been the greatest honor of my career. Every day I work tirelessly to improve the lives of my constituents and neighbors – and my work often extends beyond the halls of the Texas Capitol. I support initiatives around the country that I know will uplift my constituents. That's why I'm excited about the potential game-changing impact of Capital One's $265 billion Community Benefits Plan for Black Texans who are often overlooked by financial institutions.

They’ve tried to steal the elections, bankrupt him in court, put him in jail, and there’s even been two attempts on his life. But nonetheless, Donald Trump is still standing, and if he can do this, he'll go down in history as the greatest modern U.S. President – the one who could stop Congress and "The Swamp" from eating America from within. And since it'd be literally impossible for him to run the country any worse than Joe Biden has, why not give him the benefit of the doubt and let him give it the ol' college try?  All we're asking is, give Trump a chance.

When Joe Biden pardoned his son, it came as a shock to almost no one. Almost. Judging from the public's response and polling, very few Americans believed what the president tried to put over on them when it came to his son and the Big Guy's "Family Business." If Democrats’ and the media's self-important idiocy were shattered by the Bidens' actions, some believe The Party itself is in need of a new identity — a darker one. The Hunter Biden pardon just revealed to Democrats what the rest of America could already see plainly.

Media reports say Joe Biden is about to issue a slew of blanket "Pre-Emptive Pardons" for people associated with his administration to thwart any "revenge" the Trump White House might take against them. But wait – at the end of the 1st Trump Administration, Democrats insisted Donald Trump was going to pardon himself, which of course he didn’t. Joe Biden is quickly becoming "The most tragic figure in American politics."

Remember the old saying that if it weren't for double standards, Democrats wouldn’t have any standards at all? While it's evolved, it's not accurate anymore – today's Democrats don't even have "double standards." They don't have ANY standards. And remember at the end of the the first Trump Administration how Democrats were speculating that Donald Trump might pardon himself? He didn’t, of course... But Joe Biden might. 

Deflated by the resounding November defeat, the left now believes it can magically rebound by destroying President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet nominees. Many of Trump's picks are well outside the usual Washington, D.C./New York political, media, and corporate nexus. But that is precisely the point -- to insert reformers into a bloated, incompetent, and weaponized government who are not part of it.

After their stunning loss in the election, all Democrats and the liberal media can talk about is "rebranding." I don’t think that will help. The reason people think Democrats are the party of Open Borders, Runaway Inflation, Transgenderism and Foreign Wars is because that’s what they gave us. Branding is all about drilling down to what a product or party stands for. Now that virtually every Democrat idea is seen as “insane,” nobody wants them anymore. Democrats – and any "leaders" they find – need to decide who they are and what they want to be.

“Trump’s DEA Pick Pulls Out in Latest Setback.” With all that’s happening in the World, this is their Number One story of the day. Besides, he didn’t pull out; I pulled him out because I did not like what he said to my pastors and other supporters. But, more importantly, what’s my “latest” setback??? I just won the Presidency of the United States!  They haven’t written a good story about me in YEARS…”

"Principles become much harder to defend when their most famous defenders have compromised them flagrantly," said one well-known liberal critic. And that was before Joe Biden's fellow Democrat Party members criticized his dramatic and unexpected Sunday Evening "full & unconditional pardon" by arguing it gave away "the moral high ground" they believe Biden and the anti-Trump Resistance had established. They were primed and ready to attack him, but how can they now that Joe Biden's just made it impossible.

It's hard to believe it was just four years ago that Joe Biden was elected to the Presidency on the promise of uniting the country. After the misery of COVID-19 deaths, and lockdowns and the riots in the streets of major cities, Americans WANTED to be united by a unifying national purpose. Alas, it never happened. Instead, Biden and his leftist allies were drunk with power and swerved the Democrat Party even further to the left. The country was only further torn asunder. Could Donald Trump learn from these blunders, and be the one who unifies the nation?

​​​​​​​It feels like a change is coming. It feels like we’re entering a New Era. Donald Trump's ready to make America America again, before "Making America Great Again." All the wokesters, communists, climate change hoaxers, creepy perverts, all those other freaks who have been troubling us for the last decade – they’re done. But it’s more than just Donald Trump putting out a refreshing and optimistic vibe. There’s a new culture – and you can feel it everywhere. You can feel it when you see the Trump Dance after a touchdown.  AND, it’s catching.

During the last four years, communities along the southern border have been ground zero for illegal immigration. Stretching over 800 miles of the Rio Grande, my congressional district includes places like Eagle Pass, Del Rio, and El Paso. These places have all been ravaged by the Biden administration's "America Last" agenda, which has led to the worst border crisis in our nation's history. It has also empowered transnational criminals like never before.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough & Mika Brzezinski went to Mar-a-Lago the other day to "Kiss the Ring" of Donald Trump, and spent a reported 90 minutes with the President-Elect. Question: What's it like spending 90 minutes with a "fascist," a "thug" and a man who is "utterly despicable"? Did they bring along a food taster? As for why they made the trek: "We realized it's time to do something different. That starts with not only talking about Donald Trump, but also talking with him," said Brzezinski. Well, lets Roll some tape.

Call them Manhattan's vanishing voters. Citywide, 573,618 fewer New York City voters cast their ballots for Kamala Harris than they did for Joe Biden in 2020. Donald Trump gained 94,611 voters, but most just sat out the election. This potential voting bloc of Democrats – fed up with left-wing extremism – could, in fact, help elect a law-and-order Manhattan District Attorney to replace the controversial Alvin Bragg, the soft-on crime lefty largely responsible for the mayhem on New York City's streets.
