AMERICA FIRST TRADE AGENDA – President Trump was in Western Pennsylvania today to outline his America First Trade Agenda.

Unlike Kamala Harris, President Trump actually has a plan to help America’s workers.

He also has the record to back his agenda up. As president, he forced concessions from the CCP for the first time in U.S. history and negotiated fair trade agreements that many said were impossible. He has the record, the agenda, and – as shown by the Teamsters poll – the support to deliver for the working men and women of this country!

KAMALA’S OPEN BORDER – One of Kamala Harris’ biggest lies of this campaign is that she has any intention of securing the border. She doesn’t. In fact, a newly surfaced video shows Kamala Harris chanting “down, down with deportation.” She’s lived up to that chant as border czar.

As border czar, Kamala Harris helped fuel the worst border crisis in U.S. history.

An average of 3,450 illegal immigrants are being released into the U.S. every day. In FY 2023 alone, more than 900,000 illegal immigrants were released into the interior of the U.S. and now await future immigration court dates. Experts say the likelihood U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers will remove them is “virtually nonexistent” and that they “are here indefinitely, if not forever.”

The Harris-Biden Department of Homeland Security itself admitted that more than 40 percent of catch and release migrants have totally disappeared, and the Harris-Biden administration has failed to remove 99.7 percent of the illegal immigrants released into the interior of the U.S.

This crisis was the intentional outcome of open-borders policies that Kamala Harris has supported for decades.

As a result of Kamala’s dangerous policies, criminal illegal aliens are finding “sanctuary” in our communities as Americans are murdered, raped, and violently assaulted. Hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens are being released unvetted as the terror threat against the U.S. homeland continues to rise. Vicious transnational gangs such as Tren de Aragua have built a “criminal empire” in the U.S. for the first time by “hiding in plain sight.”

Kamala Harris has no plans to secure the border. If she did, she would never have opened the border in the first place. The reality? She’s an open-border radical. For today’s full “Harris Dishonest Mondays,” click here.

BETTER OFF UNDER TRUMP – Americans were better off under President Trump. Team Trump has the proof.

• Gas prices – Under President Trump, gas prices averaged $2.48/gallon. Under Kamala, gas prices have averaged $3.49/gallon – more than a dollar higher.
• Household incomes – In President Trump's first three years, Americans saw a 10.5% boost ($7,690) in median household income – seven times larger than the 1.3% increase ($1,050) after the first three years of Kamala.
• Earnings – Under President Trump, real average weekly earnings increased 8.2%. Under Kamala, real average weekly earnings have declined 3.4%.
• Personal Savings – In President Trump's first three years, the personal savings rate rose from 5.3% in 2017 to 19.3% in 2021 – a 264% increase. In Kamala's first three years, the personal savings rate fell from 19.3% in 2021 to 2.9% in 2024 — an 85% decrease.
• Homeownership – Under President Trump, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate decreased by 32% between 2017 and 2021. Under Kamala, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate increased by 120% between 2021 and 2024.
• Credit Card Debt – Under President Trump, the credit card delinquency rate fell by 11% between 2016 and 2020. Under Kamala, credit card delinquency skyrocketed by 54% between 2020 and 2024.
• Poverty – In President Trump's first three years in office, more than 6.6 million Americans were lifted out of poverty. In Kamala's first three years, just 760,000 Americans were lifted out of poverty.

THE FACTS ON CRIME – Kamala Harris keeps lying about crime. Team Trump isn’t letting her get away with it. In case you missed this analysis from Team Trump, here’s what you need to know. (For the full analysis, click here.)

Data from the DOJ's National Crime Victimization Survey shows crime rates remain way up under Kamala:

• FACT: Violent crime is up 37% between 2020 and last year.
  • Rape is up 42%.
  • Robbery is up 63%.
  • Assault is up 34%.
  • Violent crime (excluding simple assault) is up 55%.
  • Domestic violence is up 32%.
  • Stranger violence is up 61%.
  • Violent crime (with an injury) is up 10%.
  • Violent crime (with a weapon) is up 56%.
  • Motor vehicle theft is up 42%.

There’s a reason President Trump has the support of the National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP), the nation’s largest police union with more than 377,000 members, the National Association of Police Organizations (NAPO), and International Union of Police Associations (IUPA), among dozens of other organizations – he will restore law and order, and Back the Blue!

“WE HAVE TO HAVE CONTROL OF OUR LAND” – President Trump spoke about his agenda to protect America’s farmland from the CCP.

From the report.

• “President Donald Trump, the GOP nominee for president in this year’s election, told Breitbart News exclusively that on Monday in Pennsylvania, he intends to light up Chinese Communist Party (CCP) efforts to buy American farmland out from underneath the United States.” 
• “‘We have to have control of our land,’ Trump said in a nearly hour-long phone interview with Breitbart News on Sunday afternoon. ‘We have to have control of our economy. We have to have control of our borders. We have to make sure we’re in charge of our own country. We’re losing that with these people, these unbelievable so-called leaders we have. They’re allowing our country to be sold out from under us. We have to be very careful and we have to be very prudent. We can’t let this happen. Do you think China would let us go in and buy their land and do what they do? I don’t think so, okay. It won’t happen. So we have to be very careful.’”
• “Trump told Breitbart News that if elected in November, his administration would put in place very strict guidelines blocking the Chinese from acquiring American farmland – and other key American industries like the telecommunications industry.

“HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT” – The bloodthirsty transnational gang, Tren de Aragua, is building a criminal “empire” in the U.S. because of Kamala’s border bloodbath.

From the New York Post report.

• “In little more than a year, a once-obscure South American street gang has taken hold in the Big Apple, exploiting the migrant crisis to build a violent criminal enterprise from within the walls of city shelters.”
• “Tren de Aragua, a Venezuela-bred crew of thugs, now terrorize Gotham with gun-toting, moped-riding hoods, sell illegal guns under the very noses of private shelter security guards, and run sleazy prostitution rings in neighborhoods suddenly besieged by the marauding migrants.” 
• “The gang, which also peddles a lethal fentanyl mix called Tussi or ‘pink cocaine,’ has grown so fast that it has so far overwhelmed both average New Yorkers and the city’s elite police force.”
• “In Jackson Heights, a stretch of Roosevelt Avenue dubbed the ‘Market of Sweethearts’ has become a testament to TDA’s muscle and influence, with vendors peddling stolen items and an open-air red light district that has migrant hookers walking the streets day and night.”
• “One current crime spree has seen nearly two dozen heists pulled off by migrants wielding guns or knives, with the crooks typically as young as 15 and no older than 19 years old, law enforcement sources said.”
• “In New York, TDA recruiters worked city shelters to enlist new members, many of them strong-armed into joining their ranks under the threat of having their families targeted by the gang.”
