America’s southern border has undergone a transformation that, according to the administration, is nothing short of historic. Border apprehensions have plummeted to record lows, with March 2025 seeing just over 7,000 illegal crossings—a staggering 95% decrease from the same month last year. The Border Patrol now reports daily apprehensions so low that the numbers for the entire month barely surpass what used to happen in just two days. This dramatic turnaround is being hailed as proof that tough enforcement and a zero-tolerance message work: cross illegally, and you will be deported. While critics scoff at the idea of a “practically perfect” border, the numbers speak for themselves, and the administration’s resolve to keep tightening the screws is clear.
On the economic front, the country’s newfound assertiveness is paying dividends. By playing hardball with trade partners and implementing robust tariffs, the U.S. Treasury is seeing billions in new revenue. Projections show that a 15% universal tariff could generate nearly $4 trillion over a decade, even after accounting for economic headwinds and foreign retaliation. For too long, America’s workers and manufacturers have been undercut by unfair global practices. Now, the tables have turned—other nations are finally being forced to play by our rules, and the American taxpayer is reaping the benefits. It’s a welcome change from the days when globalists sold out American interests and let our industries wither.
Domestically, the legislative agenda is equally ambitious. The House has advanced a budget resolution to usher in the “big beautiful bill”—the largest tax cut package in modern history. By making the Trump tax cuts permanent, the plan promises to fuel job creation, turbocharge small businesses, and put more money back in the hands of working families. If Congress fails to act, millions of jobs could be lost, and average families would face painful tax hikes. But with this bill, the country is poised for a new golden age of prosperity, proving once again that when government gets out of the way, Americans thrive.
Internationally, the administration is not shy about learning from allies who have taken bold action. El Salvador’s crackdown on crime, while controversial among the globalist left, has delivered undeniable results, transforming one of the world’s most dangerous countries into one of its safest. By prioritizing security and refusing to coddle criminal elements, El Salvador has provided a blueprint for restoring order and protecting citizens. The U.S. is right to look to such examples, focusing on results rather than empty virtue signaling.
Perhaps most innovative is the rollout of a self-deportation program, which offers undocumented immigrants a clear choice: leave voluntarily with financial support and a chance to return legally, or face steep fines and permanent bans. This humane yet firm approach balances compassion for those willing to follow the rules with zero tolerance for lawbreakers and criminals. With thousands already opting for self-deportation, it’s clear that when America stands firm, the world listens. The days of open borders and empty promises are over—security, prosperity, and the rule of law are back at the heart of American policy.
