🚨 April shocker: U.S. Treasury posts $258B surplus — 2nd largest ever.

• Tax receipts surged to $850B
• Customs duties (Trump tariffs) doubled to record $15.6B
• Borrowing needs down $53B this quarter

For a gov’t hooked on deficits, this is a rare fiscal win—driven by new trade policy.

Department of Justice Announces Settlement of Litigation Between the Federal Government and Rare Breed Triggers - https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/depa...ion-between-federal-government-and-rare-breed

Friday, May 16, 2025​

Today, in accordance with President Trump’s Executive Order Protecting Second Amendment Rights, as well as the Attorney General’s Second Amendment Enforcement Task Force, the Department of Justice announced the settlement of litigation between the federal government and Rare Breed Triggers.​

“This Department of Justice believes that the 2nd Amendment is not a second-class right,” said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “And we are glad to end a needless cycle of litigation with a settlement that will enhance public safety.”​

In June 2024, in Cargill v. Garland, the Supreme Court held that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) exceeded its statutory authority by issuing a rule classifying a bump stock as a “machinegun.” In July 2024, the Northern District of Texas applied Cargill v. Garland to a device called a “forced-reset trigger” (FRT) and concluded that FRTs also cannot be classified as a “machinegun.”​

The Department’s agreement with Rare Breed Triggers avoids the need for continued appeals in United States v. Rare Breed Triggers and continued litigation in other, related cases concerning the same issue. The settlement includes agreed-upon conditions that significantly advance public safety with respect to FRTs, including that Rare Breed will not develop or design FRTs for use in any pistol and will enforce its patents to prevent infringement that could threaten public safety. Rare Breed also agrees to promote the safe and responsible use of its products.​

The cases that will be resolved under the settlement agreement are:​

- NAGR v. Garland, 23-cv-830-O (N.D. Tex.), on appeal 24-10707 (5th Cir.).
- United States v. Rare Breed Triggers LLC, No. 23-cv-369 (E.D.N.Y), on appeal 23-7276 (2d Cir.).
- United States v. Miscellaneous Firearms and Related Parts and Equipment Listed in Exhibit A, 23-cv-17 (D. Utah).

Supreme Court approved largest immigration status revocation in decades - https://www.deseret.com/politics/2025/05/19/supreme-court-order-allows-dhs-ending-tps-program/

"The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday granted the Trump administration the right to remove temporary protected status to roughly 350,000 Venezuelans living in the United States.

The per curiam order is in response to the decision of a Northern California district court judge barring Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s February notice that would have terminated a Biden-era 18-month extension of the protected status for Venezuelan nationals in April ..."

Rep. Jim Jordan - https://x.com/Jim_Jordan/status/1926000664615793152

President Trump and House Republicans said we would pass tax cuts for families and secure the border.

And we did just that.

What about the price of eggs? =D

Eric Daugherty - https://x.com/EricLDaugh/status/1928782457047830643

🚨 UPDATE: Egg prices have now declined 62% since President Trump's inauguration day.

They were $6.55. They are now $2.52 per dozen.

MASSIVE WIN.

The media ignored this story once it got good for Trump.
