Donald Trump has called on Fed Chairman Jerome Powell to cut interest rates.

Trump said, “Energy prices are down, Interest Rates are down, Inflation is down, even Eggs are down 69%, and Jobs are UP, all within two months – A BIG WIN for America.”

Truth Social:

This would be a PERFECT time for Fed Chairman Jerome Powell to cut Interest Rates. He is always “late,” but he could now change his image, and quickly. Energy prices are down, Interest Rates are down, Inflation is down, even Eggs are down 69%, and Jobs are UP, all within two months – A BIG WIN for America. CUT INTEREST RATES, JEROME, AND STOP PLAYING POLITICS!

Jerome Powell said the Fed will wait for more clarity before making monetary changes on Friday.

He said, “We’re well positioned to wait for greater clarity before considering any adjustments to our policy stance. It is too soon to say what will be the appropriate path for monetary policy.”

Breitbart reported: 

He also said that the Fed would wait for clarity before changes to “monetary policy.”

“We’re well positioned to wait for greater clarity before considering any adjustments to our policy stance. It is too soon to say what will be the appropriate path for monetary policy,” he stated.

Donald Trump is fixing the American economy.

Chuck Schumer might be in trouble.

According to a new poll from Data for Progress, he is trailing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez by double digits in the 2028 Democrat Senate Primary.

The Daily Mail reported:

The poll found of the 770 likely Democratic voters that 55 percent of voters would support Ocasio-Cortez, 35, in a head-to-head match up in the 2028 New York primary.

Schumer, meanwhile, received a paltry 36 percent. Nine percent were undecided.

The young progressive also raked in a much higher favorability rating, according to the poll.

AOC received a net +59 favorability while Schumer registered a +26 favorability rating.

The poll shows Schumer losing support even among Democrats.

Politico reported: 

The poll is the latest sign that Schumer’s standing among the Democratic base has taken a hit since he voted to advance a GOP funding bill last month that avoided a government shutdown. The fact that Data for Progress conducted and released the poll also underscores that liberal organizations are continuing to look for ways to prod Schumer to take a tougher stance against President Donald Trump.

“This poll really does show that Democrats are united in just wanting to stand up, wanting to fight, wanting to see someone taking a stand for them,” said Danielle Deiseroth, executive director of Data for Progress.

Deiseroth added that her firm “has a long tradition of wanting to challenge the status quo of Democratic Party leadership” and released polling in 2021 showing then-Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema was vulnerable to a primary challenge. Sinema later registered as an independent and declined to run for reelection.

This is bad news for Chuck Schumer.

China announced more tariffs on American goods in response to Donald Trump’s tariffs.

This would impose another 34% on American goods.

Epoch Times reported:

China announced a raft of additional tariffs and restrictions against American goods on Friday, in retaliation of the sweeping tariffs imposed by the United States.

Beijing said that from April 10, it would impose additional tariffs of 34 percent on all American products.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) also unveiled controls on exports of medium and heavy rare-earths, including samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium, and yttrium to the United States, effective from Friday.

Trump sent a message to China after the retaliation.

Trump said that China “panicked” and that this was “the one thing they cannot afford to do!”

Truth Social:

CHINA PLAYED IT WRONG, THEY PANICKED – THE ONE THING THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO DO!

Trump is not backing down.

Donald Trump reacted to the latest jobs numbers.

GREAT JOB NUMBERS, FAR BETTER THAN EXPECTED. IT’S ALREADY WORKING. HANG TOUGH, WE CAN’T LOSE!!!

The US economy added 228,000 jobs, far higher than what was expected.

The US economy added a stronger-than-expected 228,000 jobs in March, a significant increase from February’s revised gains of 117,000, according to Bureau of Labor Statistics data released Friday.

The unemployment rate ticked higher to 4.2% from 4.1%.

Economists were expecting job growth to slow to 130,000 in March and for the unemployment rate to tick up to 4.2%, according to FactSet.

Trump’s economic policies are working!

Donald Trump is calling out political prosecution.

Trump publicly defended Marine Le Pen, saying, “Sounds like a “bookkeeping” error to me. It is all so bad for France, and the Great French People, no matter what side they are on. FREE MARINE LE PEN!”

Truth Social:

The Witch Hunt against Marine Le Pen is another example of European Leftists using Lawfare to silence Free Speech, and censor their Political Opponent, this time going so far as to put that Opponent in prison. It is the same “playbook” that was used against me by a group of Lunatics and Losers, like Norm Eisen, Andrew Weissmann, and Lisa Monaco. They spent the last nine years thinking of nothing else, and they FAILED, because the People of the United States realized that they were only Corrupt Lawyers and Politicians. I don’t know Marine Le Pen, but do appreciate how hard she worked for so many years. She suffered losses, but kept on going, and now, just before what would be a Big Victory, they get her on a minor charge that she probably knew nothing about – Sounds like a “bookkeeping” error to me. It is all so bad for France, and the Great French People, no matter what side they are on. FREE MARINE LE PEN!

Marine Le Pen was barred from running for political office for five years and given a four-year prison sentence.

CNN reported:

French far-right figurehead Marine Le Pen has been banned from running for political office for five years after being found guilty of embezzling European Union funds, in a politically explosive ruling that has shattered her hopes of winning the presidency in 2027.

A Paris court also handed Le Pen, who was the frontrunner for the next election, a four-year prison sentence with two years suspended, to be served under house arrest, and a €100,000 ($108,000) fine. Le Pen will file an appeal, her lawyer said.

Political prosecution! 

New York City Mayor Eric Adams will not be running as a Democrat in the New York City Mayoral race.

Adams announced he will be running as an independent.

Adams said, “I have always put New York’s people before politics and party — and I always will. I am running for mayor in the general election because our city needs independent leadership that understands working people.”

NBC News reported:

New York City Mayor Eric Adams will run for reelection as an independent, opting out of the Democratic primary just one day after a federal judge dismissed corruption charges against him.

“I have always put New York’s people before politics and party — and I always will. I am running for mayor in the general election because our city needs independent leadership that understands working people,” Adams said in a Thursday morning post on X.

…

In a Thursday interview with Politico, which first reported the news, Adams explained that he wants to “mount a real independent campaign” now that he is “uninhibited” by the federal bribery case that “handcuffed him.” The independent campaign, he explained, would rely on a “solid base of people” outside Manhattan.

A federal judge dismissed the charges against him on Wednesday.

AP News reported:

A federal judge dismissed New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ corruption case on Wednesday, agreeing it was the only practical outcome while blasting the Justice Department’s “troubling” rationale for wanting the charges thrown out — namely so the Democrat could help President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

The judge, though, denied prosecutors the option to refile the charges after the mayoral election. Judge Dale E. Ho’s order to dismiss the case “with prejudice” spares Adams from having to govern in a way that pleases Trump or potentially risk having the Republican’s Justice Department revive the charges.

The judge said he wasn’t opining on the merits of the case, but that courts can’t force prosecutors to move forward. Still, he expressed qualms about the government’s move, saying “there are many reasons to be troubled” by its reasoning.

Even elected officials are leaving the Democrat party.

Senate Republicans released a new budget blueprint.

NBC News wrote, “They hope to adopt the plan in the coming days to instruct committees to begin work a massive bill to pass Trump’s agenda on taxes, immigration funding and other priorities. ”

NBC News reported:

Senate Republicans released a new budget blueprint Wednesday that would pave the way for $1.5 trillion in new tax cuts in addition to making President Donald Trump’s 2017 tax cuts permanent.

They hope to adopt the plan in the coming days to instruct committees to begin work a massive bill to pass Trump’s agenda on taxes, immigration funding and other priorities. Senate Republicans are using the budget “reconciliation” process to evade the 60-vote hurdle in the chamber, where they hold a 53-47 majority, and cut Democrats out of the process.

Republicans are using a controversial new accounting method known as “current policy baseline” to score the cost of a Trump tax cut extension at $0. Democrats have slammed it as “magic math” that papers over the multitrillion-dollar cost of extending those tax cuts and are exploring their options to challenge the approach.

The Senate GOP budget resolution includes a $5 trillion debt limit increase.

Donald Trump endorsed the plan.

Trump said, “Every Republican, House and Senate, must UNIFY. We need to pass it IMMEDIATELY!”

Truth Social:

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune have been working tirelessly on taking the next step to pass the plan for our ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL, as it is known, as well as getting us closer to the Debt Extension necessary to continue our great work. The Senate Budget plan gives us the tools that we need to get our shared priorities done, including certain PERMANENT Tax Cuts, Spending Cuts, Energy, Historic Investments in Defense, Border, and much more. We are going to cut Spending, and right-size the Budget back to where it should be. The Senate Plan has my Complete and Total Support. Likewise, the House is working along the same lines. Every Republican, House and Senate, must UNIFY. We need to pass it IMMEDIATELY!

Republicans are starting to move on the MAGA agenda!

The game is rigged. No matter what combination of diet and exercise you try, losing weight is a losing battle.

Nearly 75% of Americans are overweight – and overcoming our chair-based lifestyles and hidden glycemic bombs in our food supply is nearly impossible.

Even exercise can be useless. A 45 minute jog burns about the same amount of calories as 2 slices of pizza.

That’s why people turn to Ozempic® and other weight loss injections out of desperation.

But there’s a dark side. Meet Coco:

“I was getting ready for a date with my husband and tried to put on my favorite dress.

I wasn’t even close to being able to zip it up, even with his help! I was so embarrassed.

I exercised for a month and thought I was eating better, but the weight on the scale barely changed.

I needed help losing weight. Semaglutide seemed like a way to go.

But then, my friend suffered scary side effects from the shots.

She had battled the unpleasant nausea and painful weekly injections to the stomach, but then she mis-dosed one of her injections and had to go to the hospital.

I need to be there for my kids and my job; I can’t risk my life for this. But I also needed to lose weight.

It felt like I was trapped.”

There is a solution: you can drop the pounds AND avoid needles, thanks to the team of medical experts at The Wellness Company.

“I add it to my water when I wake up and I have control of my appetite all day.

No more Frappucino cravings in the afternoon!

I lost 11 pounds in the first 3 weeks and felt great along the way.”

Losing Weight Has Never Been Easier:

Voter ID is now enshrined in the Wisconsin state constitution.

Voters approved the measure on Tuesday night.

When the vote was called, 60% were in favor.

TMJ4 reported:

Voters approved a proposed constitutional amendment to enshrine Wisconsin’s photo ID requirement in the state constitution.

At the time the vote was called 60 percent voted in favor of the statewide referendum, and 40 percent voted against.

Voters in Wisconsin are already required to present a photo ID at the polls. However, Republicans hailed the measure as a way to bolster election security and protect the law from being overturned in court, citing polls that show broad support for voter ID requirements in Wisconsin.

Here is the language of the question voters were asked.

WISN reported:

Photographic identification for voting. Shall section 1m of article III of the constitution be created to require that voters present valid photographic identification verifying their identity in order to vote in any election, subject to exceptions which may be established by law?

Huge win for election integrity.
