Never let it be said that President Trump doesn't know how to get the left spun up in a tizzy. Granted, yanking the left's chains is a good thing to do, every day and twice on Sunday for good measure. But President Trump has been giving us some master classes.

This new year that we are on the cusp of is presenting him with new opportunities, as we enter into the nation's 250th anniversary celebrations. The president intends to make it an event for the ages, including the construction of a
triumphal arch in the District of Columbia.

EDITORIALS_ Trump’s total control of the border is the success story of 2025 (WASHINGTON EXAMINER)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER




Trump’s total control of the border is the success story of 2025

By Washington Examiner
December 31, 2025 5:00 am


Two years ago this month, more than 300,000 illegal immigrants were stopped by Customs and Border Protection officers along the southwest border of the United States, and almost all of them were quickly released into the country.

At the time, we were told by even supposedly conservative media outlets that there was nothing the
Biden administration could do to stop the migrant flood and that only bipartisan legislation from Congress could solve the problem.

____________

For all his other faults, Trump has delivered on his immigration promises. The border has been secured, something we were told could not be done, and for the first time in decades, the illegal immigrant population is shrinking. In a year of otherwise mixed results, Trump’s total control of the border stands as the defining domestic policy success story of 2025.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!_ Poetry to Light up New Year’s Eve (Marlena Figge - THE EPOCH TIMES)

THE EPOCH TIMES

Poetry to Light up New Year’s Eve

Four eminent poets show how to enjoy and embrace the new year.

Every year, the first lines of the Scots poem “Auld Lang Syne” by Robert Burns prompt us to muse on the same question: Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? As we move into the new year, what do we do with our memory of the old year?

Burns isn’t alone in his reflections on this point. Other poets too have seized the occasion of the celebration of the new year to reflect on how we ought to treat memory.

Man can hold either too loosely or too tightly to the past. As Marcus Aurelius noted, “Every Man’s Life lies all within the Present; For the Past is spent, and done with, and the Future is uncertain.” There is danger in forgetting the past completely or refusing to learn from it.

Defiant joy as Sydney Harbour packed for New Year's Eve spectacular

By Adam Vidler, Emily Bennett|12:37am Jan 1, 2026

VIDEO

The east coast of Australia has welcomed in 2026 with a defiantly joyous celebration on Sydney Harbour just weeks after the nation's worst-ever terror attack.

Heavily armed police kept a close eye over about 1 million people who flocked to the waterfront for the midnight fireworks. The centrepiece of the world-famous spectacle was the Sydney Harbour Bridge, which earlier glowed blue in a powerful message for the world of peace and unity.

Images of a menorah and white doves were beamed onto the bridge's pylons in memory of the 15 people killed in the attack on a Hanukkah celebration at
Bondi Beach on December 14.

OPINION

Trump’s Christmas Present: 4 Percent Growth

EJ Antoni, Ph.D. | Dec 31, 2025

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

Christmas came two days early for America this year when we learned that the economy grew at a 4.3 percent annualized pace from July through September, blowing past even the rosiest expectations. The tariff-induced crash predicted by countless “experts” has been replaced by rock-solid expansion.

According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, consumers were the ones driving the acceleration in economic activity with private consumption growing at a 3.5 percent annualized rate. Not only is that faster than the previous three-month period, but it also exceeded growth in government purchases.

This is a marked change from the Biden era when a disproportionate amount of economic “growth” was coming from the public sector.As the government borrowed trillions of dollars to push spending into the stratosphere, it increased gross domestic product (GDP) without growing the real economy—the productive private sector.

This is now the first time in three years that consumer spending grew faster than government purchases for three consecutive quarters. And purchases by the federal government in particular shrank during the first nine months of 2025 at an annualized rate of 2.7 percent. It’s a complete reversal from the Biden administration when this category of government spending grew at 2.1 percent per annum.

And there’s more good news on the international trade front. The American economy is importing less and exporting more as domestic production increases. That’s a testament to the Trump administration’s fine-tuning of its tariff strategy, adapting to the economic realities facing the nation. Combine that with tax-and-regulatory reform along with record energy production and things are off to the races. 

Although the GDP report showed investment was off slightly last quarter, that was largely due to businesses drawing down overstocked inventories. With the business tax reforms in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act kicking in, investment is poised to surge next year.

China Flexes Military Muscle In Full Simulated Blockade Of Taiwan

China deployed warships, bombers and ground forces around Taiwan on Tuesday, the second day of a historic war game menacing the Beijing-claimed island.

The simulated war exercises — dubbed “Justice Mission 2025” by Chinese leaders—involved first-ever deployments of some military craft, and is seen by
some analysts as a response to a record $11.1 billion U.S.-Taiwan weapons package announced earlier in December, NBC News reported. The war games began Monday without the knowledge or consent of the United States, a key pledged ally of Taiwan.

President Donald Trump told reporters Monday that the exercises “did not worry him,” according to NBC News, adding that China has “been doing naval exercises for 20 years in that area.”

By turning its back on Western values, Europe is on a fast track to suicide, to extinction, to rejecting all the values that have evolved over thousands of years to create Western civilization.

The most fundamental right necessary for a free society is freedom of speech — the right to express thoughts, beliefs, and ideas without fear of reprisal.

The listener is then free to either agree or disagree and give his reasons.

But that doesn't apply to today’s European union. Earlier this month European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen likened free speech to a virus.

"Research has shown that pre-bunking is much more successful than debunking,"
she said.

"Perhaps if you think of information manipulation as a virus: instead of treating an infection once it has taken hold — that is debunking — it is much better to vaccinate so that the body is inoculated. Pre-bunking is the same approach," von der Leyen explained.

So the right to speak freely is a virus, and censorship is the vaccine to prevent free speech.

But all things considered, it would be far better for Europe to wake up and reconsider the path they’re taking, lest they self-destruct like the Democratic Party is doing here.

It would make for a safer, freer world.

Jan. 6 Pipe Bomb Suspect Confessed, Prosecutors Say, as Defense Scrutinizes Case

A new court filing says that Brian Cole Jr. admitted during a post-arrest interview to having built and planted the explosive devices.

Federal prosecutors say the Virginia man accused of planting pipe bombs outside the Democratic and Republican national committee headquarters on the eve of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol breach confessed to building and placing the devices.

Meanwhile, defense counsel has moved to obtain material that could test the government’s account.

In a court
filing submitted on Dec. 28, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro said that Brian Cole Jr., 30, admitted during a post-arrest interview that he built and planted the two improvised explosive devices, describing his actions as the result of mounting political anger after the 2020 election.

He told investigators that “something just snapped” in him after “watching everything, just everything getting worse,” the filing reads.

COLUMNISTS_ It's Morning Again in America (Jeff Crouere - TOWNHALL)

Townhall

OPINION

It's Morning Again in America

Jeff Crouere | Dec 29, 2025

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.


Doug Mills/The New York Times via AP, Pool


In his 1984 reelection campaign, President Ronald Reagan unveiled an unforgettable commercial titled “It’s Morning Again in America.” It summarized the economic success of the Reagan administration in lowering inflation and interest rates, creating new jobs, expanding home ownership, and creating a better future for young couples. The narrator concluded by noting America is “Prouder and stronger, and better,” and asking, “Why would we ever want to return to where we were?”

Reagan was initially elected in 1980 after the disastrous administration of President Jimmy Carter. In his first term, Reagan rebuilt the economy, restored our military greatness, and made Americans proud of their country again. For his many achievements, voters rewarded Reagan with a 49-state landslide victory.

After the four-year nightmare of Carter, America experienced “morning again” under Reagan. Similarly, Americans faced another four-year nightmare during President Joe Biden’s calamitous administration. He delivered to Americans an open border, a horrible economy, unworkable “climate change” policies, draconian COVID mandates, a weak foreign policy and a military unable to meet recruitment goals. 

When President Donald Trump was elected in November of 2024, he inherited a “mess.” Incredibly, in less than one year, it is “morning again” in America. The Trump administration has delivered amazing results, despite the challenges provided by the intractable Deep State, progressive judges and special interest groups, a left-wing media, and a razor-thin GOP congressional majority. 

For our national security, President Trump has announced plans for the rebuilding of our navy with the “Golden Fleet” of battleships and the creation of a first-class missile defense program labeled the “Golden Dome.”

In 2025, under Commander-in-Chief Trump, all branches of the United States military had achieved the highest level of recruitment in
15 years. As a reward for our brave troops, President Trump delivered “Warrior Dividends” of $1,776 during this Christmas season.

PALM BEACH, Florida — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Monday the U.S. has offered him a security commitment of 15 years as part of a proposed peace agreement to end his country’s conflict with Russia.

However, Mr. Zelenskyy said he would prefer America offer a security guarantee of up to 50 years to deter further attempts by Russia to seize Ukrainian land.

“Without security guarantees, realistically, this war will not end,” Mr. Zelenskyy told reporters in voice messages responding to questions sent via a WhatsApp chat, according to The Associated Press.

The AI backlash is getting real


The energy industry is expecting a large uptick in electricity consumption because of the growing use of power-hungry artificial intelligence systems, and lawmakers are looking for ways to prevent the cost burden from hitting ordinary consumers. AI concept file image … more

By Susan Ferrechio - The Washington Times - Monday, December 22, 2025


Merriam-Webster’s word of the year is “slop,” a term that has come to define a growing resistance to all things artificial intelligence, including massive, energy-hungry data centers, simulated actors and television commercials, and an endless stream of online fakery.

Days after taking office, President
Trump issued an executive order aimed at ensuring the United States, and not China, becomes “the global leader in AI.”

His initiative faces an increasing number of Americans who fear AI technology will destroy jobs and degrade society, not to mention drive up energy costs and drain water resources.

ECONOMY_ Beijing’s Falsified Economic Data Cripple Its Ability to Compete With US: Analysts (Jarvis Lim - THE EPOCH TIMES)

THE EPOCH TIMES

Beijing’s Falsified Economic Data Cripple Its Ability to Compete With US: Analysts

China’s real economic output in 2025 likely expanded by less than half of what the regime claimed, according to a new analysis by Rhodium Group.

Jarvis Lim
12/26/2025|Updated: 12/27/2025


A new analysis estimating China’s real expansion at merely half the claimed rate exposes a statistical void that has blinded the leadership to its fragility, accelerating global isolation and confirming the regime’s inability to rival Washington, experts say.

China’s real economic output in 2025 likely expanded by just 2.5 percent to 3.0 percent,
according to a Dec. 22 report by the global consultancy firm Rhodium Group.

The estimate is roughly half the 5.2 percent growth through the first three quarters
claimed by China’s State Council.

Rhodium linked the low growth estimate primarily to collapsing fixed asset investment (FAI), which declined 11 percent year-on-year between July and November.

One Year In, Trump’s Economy Defies the Experts and Outpaces G7

Commentary 

One year into Donald Trump’s new presidency, the verdict from the data is clear: the apocalyptic consensus forecasts have failed, and the United States stands as the only major developed economy combining strong growth, controlled inflation, and fiscal consolidation. 

The same analysts and institutions that applauded massive stimulus, monetary excess, and regulatory overreach under the previous administration now struggle to explain why the economy they expected to sink into stagflation is instead outperforming all its G7 peers. Furthermore, the U.S. peers that embraced net-zero goals, big government, and high tax policies are now experiencing secular stagnation.

US_ Watchdog Group Says Trump Is at Risk (Jim Mishler - NEWSMAX)

Watchdog Group Says Trump Is at Risk 

By Jim Mishler | Saturday, 27 December 2025 07:12 PM EST


"I'm really concerned about the president's safety," Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said, warning that recent Secret Service actions reflect serious security failures surrounding President Donald Trump. 

Fitton said the president "was almost killed twice, supposedly under the protection of the Secret Service, and then they walked him into a potentially dangerous ambush,"
talking with the New York Post about a September incident at a Washington restaurant where Trump was confronted by protesters. 

Judicial Watch is
demanding answers from the government after what it calls an "unbelievable security lapse" that allowed Code Pink activists to confront Trump during a dinner at Joe's Seafood, Prime Steak and Stone Crab. 

The watchdog group has filed a lawsuit seeking internal Secret Service communications to determine how protesters appeared to have advance notice of Trump's closely held movements.

Merry Christmas to All (and Thank God You’re Not a Democrat)

Well, it’s finally here – the day that seemed to take forever to arrive and was over in a blip when you were a kid: it is Christmas. First off, Merry Christmas. Hope it’s a good one. Second, as you slip into a food coma or spend all afternoon looking for missing pieces of some Lego set or trying to consolidate boxes, take a moment and reflect on the year that just was and thank God that you’re not a Democrat.

I get it, Christmas day might not be the time for such things, but I’ve moved beyond caring. These people have been so universally horrible in words and deeds that I can’t force myself to pretend to care anymore. Somewhere out there is a family being annoyed by some leftist pile of post-digested food who can’t stop talking about how Trump did something or other that is a “threat to democracy.” Since the odds of them choking on a turkey bone are slim, and you’d likely dislodge it and save their life if they did, you’re probably in the same “not giving a damn” boat I am.

I’m lucky in that there won’t be any liberals at my house; the family we’re having over are rational conservatives. Still, I will pour a little out for those unfortunate enough to have a sister who married a mutant or a brother whose girlfriend has multiple face piercings. My thoughts are with you on this day.

Europe’s Left Whines As Christians Defend Christmas

European right-wing leaders are facing accusations of exploiting Christmas for political purposes as they increasingly center the holiday in their campaigns, according to Politico.

From condemning the phrase “Holiday Season” to hosting Christmas-themed political events, leaders like Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni have made defending Christmas a core part of their political identity. Critics view this as virtue signaling designed to boost party support, the outlet reported.
(RELATED: What Christmas Looks Like In The World’s Most Dangerous Countries For Christians)

“How can my culture offend anyone?” Meloni said of public nativity scenes, arguing such displays teach children the real meaning of Christmas.

Meloni’s Brothers of Italy party held a Christmas-themed political festival called Atreju, complete with a Santa visit, ice-skating, and a Christmas tree lit in the colors of the Italian flag.

US_ America’s 250th Anniversary to Begin With Nationwide Events, Volunteer Push, and Times Square Celebrations

THE EPOCH TIMES

America’s 250th Anniversary to Begin With Nationwide Events, Volunteer Push, and Times Square Celebrations

‘It’s going to be one for the ages, the most inspirational celebration this country and maybe the world has ever seen,’ says the America250 chair.

Plans to mark the 250th anniversary of the United States are set to unfold over the next year in a broad mix of civic engagement, public celebrations, and historic observances designed to reach communities across the country.

At the center of the effort is America250, a bipartisan commission created by Congress in 2016 to coordinate the semiquincentennial of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The initiative includes national service programs, regional events, and high-profile ceremonies intended to build momentum toward July 4, 2026.

One of the first major initiatives to launch will be America Gives, a nationwide volunteer campaign aimed at making 2026 the largest year for aggregated service hours in U.S. history. Organizers say the program reflects a broader emphasis on community participation rather than a single centralized celebration.

Here's What Happened When 'Santa' Got Pulled Over by the Cops in Ohio

President Donald Trump had some fun talking with kids on the traditional, Christmas Eve NORAD Santa Claus hotline this week. While he joked that they were tracking Santa's movements, he assured the kids that Santa was good.

Trump cracked another joke about coal, and described Santa as being a bit "cherubic." It was important not to forget to leave the cookies out for him, or he might be disappointed. But Trump assured the kids that Santa would be bringing them some good presents.

But it turns out that 'Santa' did have a little bit of a run-in with the cops when he was going through Ohio with Mrs. Claus. Sgt. Mark Robinson with the Fulton County Sheriff's Office thought that Santa was going a bit too fast, so he pulled him over. However, when he realized it was Santa, he just couldn't help but find the humor in it, especially when the Jolly Old Elf let him know he had a concealed carry permit.

Merry Christmas. (Credit: Unsplash+/Curated Lifestyle)


It's official: This is going to be a different kind of Christmas for my family and me.

We called my sisters on Wednesday morning and informed them that the back injury Mom suffered on Sunday was still bothering her to the extent that we had made an appointment to see a specialist. Because of that and the fact that she didn't want to chance aggravating it anymore, we told them that it was probably best we postpone the family get-together that was scheduled for Christmas Day.

Before I go any further with this story, anyone who wants to catch up on what happened Sunday and the feelings of guilt and anxiety I've felt over it, along with an explainer on why it wouldn't work for us to have everyone come here for Christmas lunch rather than my sister's, please click below:

Now, *That* Is a Massive Drop in the Homicide Rate Under Trump

Law and order is back. Trump is back. And everyone is starting to behave again. It’s astounding what a new president can bring to the table, at home and abroad. To cut to the chase, during the Christmas season, we’re on pace for a record one-year drop in murders under Trump, which I’m sure the liberal media will argue is a bad thing (via The Hill):

OPINION_ The Good News of Economic Growth (Jeffrey A. Tucker - THE EPOCH TIMES)

OPINION

The Good News of Economic Growth

Jeffrey A. Tucker
12/25/2025|Updated: 12/25/2025

Commentary

The Trump administration received some very welcome news in the form of third-quarter economic growth. Even adjusted for inflation, it came in at a strong 4.3 percent. That bolsters confidence in the White House and probably helps shore up Trump’s popularity at a time when it seems to have stalled somewhat. It’s the kind of report that makes for a very good day.

When Trump began his protectionist/tariff crusade, there were widespread predictions of doom. The last time tariffs had been anywhere near this high was 1930 with the Smoot-Hawley Act that many economists blame for deepening the economic crisis. So powerful was this lesson that the whole of the tariff power was transferred to the executive branch after the war, for fear that Congress simply could not exercise the power with any real competence.

President Donald Trump used a Christmas message on Wednesday to tout recent economic data and broader policy outcomes, using the holiday to frame what he described as national strength and progress under his administration.

In a
post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, "Merry Christmas to all, including the Radical Left Scum that is doing everything possible to destroy our Country, but are failing badly."

He went on to list a series of economic and policy outcomes he said reflect success. 

"We no longer have Open Borders, Men in Women's Sports, Transgender for Everyone, or Weak Law Enforcement," he wrote.

Historic US Arms Deal to Revolutionize Taiwan’s Defense, Upset PLA Strategy: Analysts

This procurement allows the Taiwanese military to adopt a new mindset regarding operations and deployment,' one expert said.

A record U.S. arms sale to Taiwan is serving as a practical deterrent against Chinese aggression, constraining Beijing to performative posturing in the short term due to its severe economic slowdown, experts say.

The Taiwanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs
announced on Dec. 18 that it received official notification from the United States confirming an $11.1 billion arms package, marking the largest single weapons sale ever proposed for the island. 

The deal encompasses eight distinct systems, including M109A7 self-propelled howitzers, high mobility artillery rocket systems (HIMARS), antiarmor unmanned aerial vehicles, and additional Javelin and wire-guided missiles.

TIPSHEET

Sen. Kennedy Defends Trump on Venezuelan Oil Seizures: Sanctions Mean Nothing If You Don’t Enforce Them

Dmitri Bolt | December 23, 2025 5:00 PM


AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta


Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana defended the Trump administration's seizure of sanctioned Venezuelan oil tankers, as Democrats continue to fight for alleged due process for criminal gangs and dictatorial regimes. He told Fox News' Jason Chaffetz his Democratic colleagues are "skillet heads" and that "Sanctions are worthless unless you enforce the sanctions." President Trump, he argued, is enforcing those sanctions, and America is better off for it.

"Well, first, Jason, Merry Christmas," Sen. Kennedy began. "Congress went straight to hell after you left, and we miss you. In terms of Venezuela, peace is my soulmate. I feel great sympathy for the people of Venezuela. I feel no sympathy for the Venezuelan government, led by Nicolás Maduro."



And those who do have sympathy for MAduro, I suspect some of my colleagues do, they shouldn't be driving. They oughta ask for their money back on their GED. Karma is going to eat 'em some day. Look, Venezuelan government isn't a dictatorship; it's a criminal organization. Venezuela and Maduro, to be specific, he makes his money by selling poison to our kids, and to the rest of the world, and by selling illegal oil. And some of my colleagues say, 'Well he's not selling fentanyl, he's selling cocaine,' like that's okay. I mean, look, skillethead, what do you think they mix the fentanyl with? Street dealers don't walk around saying, 'Here's fentanyl, get your fentanyl right here, and it'll kill you.' They mix it with the cocaine to give it extra kick. If they put too much of the fentanyl in the cocaine, you die. You're dead as Jimmy Hoffa. And what the Trump administration has been doing is working. You'll notice we don't see any drug boats these days. There's a reason for that. The cartels and Maduro can't even find a single person to drive them. 

In terms of the tankers, this is illegal oil, being moved in illegal tankers. We have judicial warrants to seize those tankers. Its about time we did it. That oil goes to China, some goes to India, a lot of it goes to Cuba. Cuba gets 40 to 50 percent of its oil from Venezuela. Without that oil, the communist regime in Cuba will eventually fail. I think we ought to choke off Venezuela's money. We got 'em down. Let's choke them to death
.

US_ Trump Just Got Some Good News About His Approval Numbers (Michael Cantrell - PJ Media)

PJ Media

Trump Just Got Some Good News About His Approval Numbers

Michael Cantrell | 3:49 PM on December 22, 2025


AP Photo/Matt Rourke


President Donald Trump got some good news to kick off his week: his approval rating has now hit 50%, giving him a net approval of plus 9 points. Not too shabby. What makes this even more satisfying is that liberals all over the country are stomping around like preschoolers who were denied cookies for their morning snack.

The new numbers also shoot holes through the left's propaganda claiming Americans aren’t pleased with the work Trump has done during the first year of his term. Nothing could be further from the truth. Look at the crime rates in major cities in the U.S. They have taken a drastic plunge thanks to the administration’s efforts to boot all of the ilegal aliens with rap sheets out of the country. Like it or lump it, that right there proves the point.

InsiderAdvantage conducted a national poll of 800 likely voters over the weekend and found that half of them approve of President Trump’s performance in the Oval Office 11 months into his term. Another 41% disapprove, with only 9% undecided. Let’s face it. Liberal crybabies make up that 41%, and they have ingested so much anti-Trump propaganda it’s running out their ears. We’re talking about people who are delusional and in the throes of a full denial of reality, all because they’re slaves to their emotions. It’s sad and more than a little pathetic.

The polls reveal that most male voters have nothing but good things to say about Trump’s leadership, while, unsurprisingly, women disapprove of his performance, continuing a trend that started before the 2024 election. I’m not one to advocate for women not having the right to vote, but stuff like this certainly adds validity to the case built by those who do.
