TRUMP’S Bold Steel Move: 50% US Steel Tarif Shocks Global Rivals
— President Trump has announced he will double tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, raising them to 50%. He made this announcement while visiting U.S. Steel’s Irvin Works in Pennsylvania.
Trump says these higher tariffs will protect American jobs and help local factories compete with foreign companies. Supporters believe this is the right step to fight back against unfair trade from other countries.
Some critics claim the new tariffs could raise costs for U.S. manufacturers and spark payback from overseas. Still, many see Trump’s decision as a strong message that America will not be pushed around on trade.
This move comes at a key moment for American industry, as leaders look for ways to keep jobs at home and strengthen the nation’s economy.
TRUMP’S $500 BILLION AI Move: A Bold Step for America’s Future
— President Donald TRUMP has announced a massive $500 billion investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure. This joint venture involves OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank. The initiative aims to build data centers, marking a significant technological advancement.
The project began during the Biden administration but has gained momentum under Trump’s leadership. This investment underscores the importance of AI for future economic growth and national security.
Trump’s announcement highlights his commitment to keeping America ahead in technology. The collaboration between these major companies is expected to drive innovation and create jobs across the country.
TRUMP’S Bold Move: Withdrawing From WHO On Inauguration DAY
— The U.S. gives 16% of the World Health Organization’s budget, making it the top donor. Conservative voices have criticized this large financial commitment. Former President Trump has called the W.H.O. a tool of China’s global ambitions.
According to the Financial Times, Trump’s team plans to announce a withdrawal from the Geneva-based health body on January 20, inauguration day. This move would cut off the W.H.O.’s biggest source of funds in one decisive action.
Trump began a withdrawal process in 2020 during his presidency, accusing the agency of being under China’s control amid Covid-19’s spread. Joe Biden reversed this decision on his first day in office in 2021 by restarting relations with the organization.
Experts say Trump’s team aims to act quickly if he returns to office, emphasizing symbolism by reversing Biden’s actions immediately upon inauguration. Ashish Jha noted that many within Trump’s circle do not trust the W.H.O., seeking a symbolic departure as a clear statement of their stance on day one.

TRUMP’S Surge: Why Hispanic Voters Are Embracing Him
— CBS News Executive Director of Elections and Surveys, Anthony Salvanto, highlighted Donald Trump’s rising support among Hispanic neighborhoods in Philadelphia. Despite Trump’s past rhetoric, many Hispanics feel he isn’t targeting them negatively. This perception is shifting some Latino voters toward Trump.
A poll revealed that two-thirds of surveyed Latinos believe Trump wasn’t referring to them when discussing immigrants. Additionally, half of foreign-born Latinos shared this sentiment. These findings suggest a growing acceptance of Trump among Hispanic communities.
While Latinos predominantly lean Democrat, Trump’s messaging on the economy resonates with many in this demographic. His approach appears to offer a sense of belonging similar to that extended to white voters. This strategy could be pivotal for his future campaigns as he continues to engage with diverse voter groups.

HARRIS’S FUNDING Frenzy: Can Trump’s Campaign Catch UP?
— Vice President Kamala Harris has surged ahead of former President Donald Trump in campaign fundraising. On the day she announced her candidacy, Harris raised $25 million and reached $500 million within a month. This financial boost gives her a strong edge as the 2024 presidential race intensifies.
Trump’s campaign, however, had collected $309 million by the end of August. To close this gap, Republican super PACs are stepping up, spending over $80 million on TV ads nationwide in September alone. They’ve also set aside more than $100 million for advertising during the campaign’s final weeks.
Despite this fundraising difference, Republicans remain determined. They’re investing heavily in online, mail, and door-to-door campaigns to counter Harris’s financial lead. The race for the White House is becoming fiercely competitive as both sides strategically deploy their resources to win voters over.

TRUMP RALLY Draws Huge Crowd In Arizona: Supporters Ecstatic
— Videos and pictures on social media show the arena, which holds 18,000 people, nearly full ahead of former President Donald Trump’s speech at the Turning Point Action rally. Supporters lined up for miles hoping to gain entry.
The venue previously hosted an event by Harris earlier this month, drawing a crowd of 15,000. The Trump rally comes shortly after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the suspension of his presidential campaign and urged blue state residents to vote for him while supporting Trump in battleground states.
Trump hinted at a “special guest” for the rally on Truth Social, leading many to speculate that it could be Kennedy. “Heading to Arizona where I will soon be speaking at Turning Point — BIG CROWD, AND EVEN BIGGER SURPRISE!” he posted.
TRUMP’S EYE on Burgum: A Potential Power Player in Second Administration
— Doug Burgum, the Governor of North Dakota, has recently been spotlighted by former President Trump as a potential key player for his possible second term. This news emerged following Trump’s unprecedented victory in the Iowa Caucuses.
Responding to conjecture about a potential role in Trump’s administration, Burgum, who had previously endorsed Trump just before the Iowa Caucuses said, “Well, it’s very flattering... but you know, these are all hypotheticals.”
The Governor underscored his dedication to his current position and to backing Trump’s nomination and election endeavors. He further explained that his previous campaign was motivated by concerns about the economy, energy and national security issues that America is facing.
TRUMP’S Troubled Past: Biden’s Team Shifts Focus Ahead of 2024 Showdown
— President Joe Biden’s team is adjusting their strategy for the 2024 campaign. Instead of solely spotlighting the incumbent Democrat, they’re turning attention to former President Donald Trump’s contentious record. This move follows recent polls showing Trump leading Biden in seven swing states and gaining traction among younger voters.
Trump, despite grappling with multiple criminal and civil charges, continues to be a GOP favorite. The aim of Biden’s aides is to use his disputed record and legal allegations as a lens through which voters can view the potential consequences of another four-year term under Trump.
Currently, Trump faces four criminal indictments and is embroiled in a civil fraud lawsuit in New York. Regardless of these trials’ outcomes, he could still make a run for office even if convicted — unless legal contests or state ballot requirements prevent him from doing so. However, rather than dwelling on the outcome of Trump’s cases, Biden’s team plans to underscore what another term would mean for American citizens.
A senior campaign aide noted that while Trump may succeed in mobilizing his base with extreme rhetoric, their strategy will highlight how such extremism could negatively affect Americans. The focus will be on the potential adverse impact of another term under Trump rather than his personal legal battles.

Biden’s 2024 REELECTION Decision IGNITED by Trump’s Potential Return: A Shocking Revelation
— In an unexpected twist, President Joe Biden admitted that his decision to run for reelection in 2024 may be fueled by former President Donald Trump’s own campaign announcement. “If Trump wasn’t on the ballot, I might not be either, but we can’t afford to let him win,” Biden disclosed to supporters in Boston on Tuesday.
Later that evening, upon his return to Washington D.C., Biden reaffirmed his statement. He stated that the prospect of Trump reclaiming the White House has solidified his own reelection bid.
Even if Trump were compelled to withdraw from the race due to facing a staggering 91 felony indictments, Biden assured he would not terminate his campaign.
These comments emerge as Biden’s campaign kicks into high gear ahead of the fiscal year-end. The president spent Tuesday in Boston attending three fundraising events and a concert featuring musician James Taylor.
