FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN’T WANT YOU TO MISS
Trump Wants Federal Hiring to Focus on Skills Over Degrees -The Associated Press President Trump signed an executive order today that prioritizes skills over degrees for many federal jobs. “Aides say the change will create more opportunities for Americans to work for the federal government,” Darlene Superville reports in TheAssociated Press.
‘One Job at A Time’ Strategy Brings Ship Construction to Marinette –Wisconsin State Journal President Trump visited Wisconsin yesterday to celebrate a new $5.5 billion Navy shipbuilding contract. “Together, the Marinette shipyard’s contribution to America’s defenses and to job creation perfectly capture a key guiding principle of the Trump administration, namely, that ‘economic security is national security,’” White House Director of Trade & Manufacturing Policy Peter Navarro writes. 200 Judges: A Milestone for President Trump -USA Today “This week the Senate reached a milestone, confirming President Trump’s 200th judge,” Carrie Campbell Severino writes in USA Today. “The 200 confirmations occurred in the face of unprecedented obstacles. Democrats, intent for years on using the courts to impose their own policy agenda, abused one Senate process after another.” 」(以上)
WATCH LIVE at 5 p.m. ET: President Trump speaks from shipbuilding yard Today, President Trump becomes the first American president to visit the city of Marinette, Wisconsin. Marinette was recently awarded a $5 billion Navy shipbuilding contract, which will result in up to 1,000 new manufacturing jobs for the area. “We will see years of growth as a direct result,” Marinette Mayor Steve Genisot says. Under President Trump, America is rebuilding our military, reviving our manufacturing sector, and reshoring our critical supply chains. Small communities across the American Heartland have come roaring back to life as a result. This “Buy American, Hire American” philosophy is helping our economy recover quickly and strongly from the Coronavirus, too. Whereas the Great Recession and Obama nonrecovery hurt middle-class jobs and wages for years, the pro-growth Trump Economy is already shattering expectations once again. Last month, economists predicted that America would lose 2.5 million jobs. Instead, our country added 7.5 million of them—the largest single-month gain in U.S. history.

Vice President Pence: Protecting faith, school choice, and jobs Vice President Mike Pence has been on the move this week, meeting with citizens across the country to discuss important issues such as school choice, religious freedom, and America’s economic recovery from the Coronavirus. Today, he and Energy Secretary Dan Brouillette visited Lordstown Motors in Ohio for the unveiling of their new electric truck—yet another symbol of the manufacturing innovation that is pushing America’s automotive sector to new heights. “We put China on notice that the era of economic surrender is over,” Vice President Pence said. “We stood strong for American jobs and American workers against China.” On Tuesday, the Vice President visited Wisconsin, where he joined a roundtable discussion on school choice. The Trump Administration is working on a new program that will make more than $5 billion in Education Freedom Scholarships available to American families. This effort will empower more parents to choose the school that is right for their kids—whether that be public, private, charter, or religious school. School choice also came up in a discussion the Vice President held with African-American faith and community leaders at the Tulsa Dream Center in Oklahoma this past weekend. During the meeting, he also addressed President Trump’s recent actions to improve safe policing following the tragic, unjust death of George Floyd. “As Americans, we grieve together—and we heal together.” IN PHOTOS: Vice President Pence visits Tulsa Dream Center
“Fury exploded outside the Wisconsin State Capitol on Tuesday night as protesters smashed windows at the statehouse, attacked a state senator, and tore down two iconic statues—including one of an abolitionist who died trying to end slavery during the Civil War,” Molly Beck and Lawrence Andrea report for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
“The ignorance and nihilism of those who would tear the [Emancipation Memorial] statue down dishonor the freed slaves who created it and are remembered by it, the man who dedicated it, and the president who freed them. It deserves to stand forever, a silent monument whose history and character speak louder than anyone who would destroy it,” Jack Butler writes for National Review.」(以上)
President Trump holds joint presser with President Duda President Trump hosted President Andrzej Duda of Poland at the White House today, where the two leaders held a joint press conference in the Rose Garden. 🎬 WATCH: President Trump and President Duda hold joint press conference America and Poland share a long, storied partnership rooted in protecting freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. Three years ago in Warsaw, President Trump delivered one of the defining speeches of his presidency, calling for courage in the defense of Western civilization against all enemies who seek to destroy it. “Through four decades of communist rule, Poland and the other captive nations of Europe endured a brutal campaign to demolish freedom, your faith, your laws, your history, your identity—indeed, the very essence of your culture and your humanity,” he said. “Your oppressors tried to break you, but Poland could not be broken.” Today, the West faces new challenges, including the scourge of terrorism. Poland is a stalwart NATO ally in this fight, meeting President Trump’s call to contribute 2 percent of its GDP to defense spending. Poland also facilitates critical military training for the United States, showing incredible hospitality and support for the U.S. troops deployed there. “I don’t think we’ve ever been closer to Poland than we are right now,” President Trump said today. 🎬President Trump welcomes President Duda in the Oval Office MORE: President Trump is strengthening America’s partnership with Poland
See the historic child welfare order President Trump just signed
More than 400,000 young Americans are in foster care today, including 124,000 who are currently awaiting adoption or some form of permanency. About 20,000 of these young people age out of the system each year without a permanent family. These young people without “forever families” endure a range of heartbreaking outcomes. Forty percent experience homelessness. Half are unemployed by age 24. More than a quarter end up incarcerated, and 1 in 4 face post-traumatic stress disorder. America cannot rely on government alone to care for our nation’s children. Improving our foster care system will take partnerships with private, faith-based, and community organizations to achieve the best outcomes for vulnerable children and families. To achieve that, President Trump just signed a historic child welfare executive order that will strengthen our foster care system in three important ways:
Improve partnerships between state agencies and public, private, faith-based, and community groups, including by holding states accountable for recruiting an adequate number of homes for all children
Secure resources for vulnerable families and youth, such as by expanding state access to financial help for guardianships
Increase federal oversight of requirements that keep children safely out of foster care when possible and ensure a permanent resolution—reunification, adoption, or guardianship—whenever the system must become involved
President Trump values solutions that are pro-family, pro-child, and pro-permanency. By encouraging and helping states work with more community partners, those who step up to help America’s children will have a strong system of support.

6/25希望之声<《国家脉动》披露: 五名前CNN媒体人为中共官媒效力=「The National Pulse」は明らかに:中共公式メディアのために動いた5人の元CNNメディア人>6/23、米国のオンラインメディア「The National Pulse」は、中共公式メディアの「China Global Television Network」(CGTN)が、中共のプロパガンダの制作と美化のため、トランプ政権を貶めるために、現在、多くの元CNN上級メディア人を雇用していることを独占的に開示した。
「National Pulse」によると、「China Global Television Network」(CGTN)は「China International Television」とも呼ばれ、中共の「中央ラジオ・テレビ局」に所属している。中共が出資し、中国共産党の宣伝部が管理している。このメディアは中共の「強力な武器」とされており、「中共が指定した敵を攻撃する」ために存在し、専ら反米・反トランプの世論を作る宣伝をする。
President Trump is in Arizona today, where he just visited the border to celebrate more than 200 miles of new border wall completed. “We’re on pace to complete 450 miles by the end of the year, and 500 miles almost immediately thereafter,” the President said at a roundtable in Yuma. 🎬 President Trump: Our border has never been more secure! “Illegal immigration is down 84 percent from this time last year. Illegal crossings from Central America are down 97 percent,” he added. Nearly 450,000 pounds of drugs have been seized this year alone. As of today, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has built approximately 216 miles of new wall system. Six miles have gone up in just the past week. Construction is underway now for 339 additional miles in high-priority locations along the southern border. “My administration has done more than any administration in history to secure our southern border,” President Trump said today. Border security is national security, the President says. Criminal organizations, including drug traffickers and human smugglers, have long exploited America’s porous southern border to put the lives of both U.S. citizens and law-abiding immigrants at risk. Tragically, children are often the biggest victims. Vicious, transnational gangs such as MS-13 pray on minors and commit heinous attacks in communities across America. Under President Trump, the rule of law is being restored, legal immigration is being protected, and American neighborhoods are being kept safe from drugs and violence. 🎬 Stop crime at the border, not in our communities!
Press Secretary: Mayors need to protect their cities
The rampant violence across American cities this past weekend claimed the lives of children as young as 3. It ended the life of a young father. It left more than 100 people shot in Chicago alone. When local leaders excuse or ignore violence, the consequences are fatal. When corporate media downplays the carnage to fit its narrative, the victim count grows. 🎬Press Secretary: Violence on our streets is “absolutely inexcusable” “We expect mayors to step up and do their job and governors to step up and do their job—in the mold of President Trump, who secured D.C. after a night of lawlessness two weeks ago,” Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany said during a briefing this afternoon. President Trump took additional action last week to promote safe policing and safe communities. His executive order reserves certain grant money only for law enforcement agencies that meet the highest standards of conduct, including in the use of force. The President also supports Sen. Tim Scott’s (R-SC) legislation to increase police transparency, incentivize the use of body cameras, and withhold federal money from police departments that continue to permit the use of chokeholds by officers. Americans want sensible, bipartisan justice reform modeled after President Trump’s First Step Act, which fixed unjust sentencing rules that disproportionately hurt the African-American community. Americans do not want politicians who bow down to the far-left movement to defund the police and excuse the deadly violence on our streets.

President Trump extends visa suspensions to protect U.S. workers
President Trump is keeping his promise to put American workers first as our economy reopens following the global Coronavirus pandemic. With a new proclamation signed today, the Administration is extending and expanding the suspension of certain immigration visas through the end of this year, ensuring that unemployed Americans are the first in line for new jobs. Many U.S. workers have been hurt through no fault of their own as COVID-19 spread across the world. No American president should allow blue-collar or middle-class workers to remain on the sidelines and be replaced by new foreign labor. In addition to extending the pause on new immigrant visas through the end of 2020, today’s proclamation builds on that measure with an additional pause on several job-related nonimmigrant visas, including H-1Bs. An overwhelming majority of Americans support pausing immigration as we recover from the Coronavirus pandemic, recent polls show. With some exceptions, such as to shore up critical supply chains, we should not permit large numbers of foreign workers to enter the United States at a time when so many citizens are out of work. “We have a moral duty to create an immigration system that protects the lives and jobs of our citizens,” President Trump says. GET THE FACTS: Learn more about today’s immigration decision. 」(以上)

FIVE STORIES PRESIDENT TRUMP DOESN’T WANT YOU TO MISS
Assault on Open Speech is an Attack on America –Washington Examiner “There are two sides in the defining fight ripping America apart, and they aren’t Republicans and Democrats. The fight is between those who believe that open speech is essential to preserving the nation and those who believe in narrowing the debate and favor cultural erasure,” the Washington Examiner editorial board writes.
On Daca, Obama Can but Trump Can’t –The Wall Street Journal “The practical consequence of the [Supreme Court’s DACA] ruling is that a President can create an unlawful policy without legislation from Congress, but a future President cannot lawfully undo it without first jumping through regulatory hoops that can take years,” The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes.
Trump Signs Police Reform Executive Order in Rose Garden Ceremony -Fox News “The National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the largest law enforcement union in the U.S., praised Trump’s [executive order on policing],” Tyler Olsen reports. “‘It strikes a great balance between the vital need for public and officer safety, and the equally vital need for lasting, meaningful, and enforceable police reform,’ the organization said.” MORE:SAFE policing for SAFE communities!
Lockdowns Hit Minority Businesses –TheWall Street Journal Endless lockdowns hurt small businesses—and they may hit minority-owned businesses the hardest. “From February to April, the number of active black business owners fell 41%,” The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes. Local leaders “should bear in mind who’d be harmed most by the ensuing economic destruction” of more lockdowns. 」(以上)
Americans are ready to get back to work. Today, fewer than 6 percent of Americans tested each week are found to have the Coronavirus. Daily average case rates continue to fall, and all 50 states have begun reopening in a safe and responsible manner. Small businesses are leading this comeback. During the height of the pandemic, more than 80 percent of them were forced to close temporarily as Americans helped slow the spread of COVID-19. To help these companies recover and avoid bankruptcy, state leaders must continue to follow President Trump’s Guidelines for Opening Up America Again. Endless lockdowns are not an option. President Trump hosted a group of these small business leaders for a roundtable at the White House today. Joining him were Gov. Pete Ricketts of Nebraska and Gov. Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma. “America is better supplied and more prepared to reenter than, I would say, just about any other place,” the President said. 🎬 President Trump: We’ve saved 50 million American jobs The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), signed into law by President Trump in March and replenished in April, has sustained millions of small businesses and protected their employees during the pandemic. The President approved more than $670 billion for the PPP, along with $60 billion for the SBA’s Disaster Loan Program. Vice President Mike Pence, head of the White House’s Coronavirus Task Force, traveled to Iowa earlier this week and visited Michigan today, where he toured two manufacturing companies. In May, the American manufacturing sector created 225,000 new jobs—part of the record-breaking 2.5 million jobs added last month. “During one of the most challenging times in our Nation,” the Vice President tweeted, “it was the people who make things & the people who grow things who stepped up.” PHOTOS: VP Pence visits Winnebago Industries in Iowa As our economy comes back, it’s vital that we continue to work together, get people back to work, and protect our most vulnerable citizens. Regrettably, too many politicians and pundits care more about exploiting fear than about reopening our country. After weeks of condoning mass protests and turning a blind eye to violent rioters, many Democrats are once again calling for stricter lockdowns on law-abiding residents. Enough is enough. Working Americans stepped up when the Coronavirus struck, staying home and often losing their jobs to help slow the spread of disease. They aren’t asking for much now—only a chance to get back to work and provide for their families. President Trump hears them. It’s time to safely reopen America for business. 🎬 President Trump: The economic revival is beginning!
