From Iran to the border, Trump takes on America’s toughest fights
Bold leadership that tackles what Washington refused to fix
COMMENTARY
By David N. Bossie - Thursday, July 3, 2025
OPINION:
As America celebrates its 249th birthday, it’s a fitting time to put President Trump’s massive undertaking to save our country in the proper context. For decades, many of the most daunting issues facing the United States have not been adequately addressed, much less fixed. Leaders from both sides of the aisle chose to manage our decay instead of doing the hard work of solving problems. Campaigns and elections came and went with the same tired debates being held on the same old issues. Promises were always made but seldom kept, with meaningful change always “a bridge too far.”
Since he took office nearly six months ago, it has been impossible to miss. Mr. Trump is on a rescue mission to solve as many big problems as he can, and he doesn’t mind juggling more than one at a time. Only a few presidents have shown such determination and fearlessness, and the world is quickly finding out that we’re all witnessing history. To put a fine point on that, here are five consequential matters Mr. Trump is taking on simultaneously, which Washington has collectively punted for way too long.
The Iran problem
For almost 50 years, our leaders have been dealing with the Islamic Republic of Iran and the dangers it poses to the world, not only owing to its status as the leading state sponsor of terrorism but also for its aggressive nuclear aspirations. Since 1979, when Iran took 52 Americans hostage for 444 days, the regime has been chanting “Death to America.” Politicians have talked nonstop about treating Iran like the mortal threat it is, but the mullahs always manage to stay in power to fund horrific acts of terrorism and threaten Israel and the United States, largely unscathed.
Mr. Trump has demonstrated that those days are over. The Iranians are not allowed to have nuclear weapons, terrorize Israel or get away with assassination plots against Mr. Trump without paying a heavy price. This president is a man of action, and he refuses to kick the can down the road on the Iranian nuclear threat any longer. Peace through strength works, and because of Mr. Trump’s bold leadership, the world is a safer place today.
The federal spending problem
America hasn’t had a balanced federal budget in nearly a quarter of a century. Since that time, when support for fiscal responsibility was strong, the script has flipped to a scenario of bipartisan support for unchecked, reckless spending. This warped mindset, which has been adopted by far too many in Congress, has caused our national debt to explode from $5 trillion in 2000 to an unthinkable $36 trillion today.
During election seasons, politicians of all stripes have become skilled at appeasing voters with calls to cut spending, but the promises always ring hollow. Mr. Trump has decided to confront our country’s addiction to budget deficits once and for all. His One Big Beautiful Bill Act contains a record cut in mandatory spending. The Department of Government Efficiency has identified $190 billion in savings, a $9.4 billion rescissions package is working its way through Congress, and appropriators on Capitol Hill are busy codifying DOGE’s fiscal recommendations as we speak.
