STEVE MOORE: 9 top Trump economy wins after his first 100 days
Here is a handy list of highlights on President Donald Trump’s 100-day economy accomplishments
This week we mark 100 days since President Donald Trump took the oath of office. I readily admit that Trump’s tariff battles have caused market turmoil, business disruption and a temporary loss of consumer confidence in the economy. I am also nervous about the trade wars, but if Trump can get our major trading partners to lower their tariffs, we could end up with freer trade than when he entered office.

Hawley reignites 'PELOSI Act'
Push to ban lawmakers from trading stocks
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., is reintroducing legislation Monday that would ban members of Congress and their spouses from trading stocks while in office.
Hawley introduced the "PELOSI Act" in 2023, but failed to make progress under President Joe Biden's administration. The proposal has since gained popularity among lawmakers on both sides of the aisle, and President Donald Trump himself said last week that he would "absolutely" sign such a ban if it came to his desk.
"Members of Congress should be fighting for the people they were elected to serve—not day trading at the expense of their constituents," Hawley told Fox News Digital in a statement.

DOT Chief Duffy: US Truckers Must Speak English
Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Monday his department will rescind an Obama administration-era policy that dismissed English language proficiency requirements for commercial motor vehicle drivers.
Duffy said in a news release that he is following up on an executive order issued by President Donald Trump earlier in the day that prioritizes safety on the nation's roads. Duffy said the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, or FMCSA, will take immediate steps to execute the executive order and strengthen English language requirements.

Suicide Epidemic
Gee, Epstein hangs himself and now Virginia Giuffre’s a “suicide” by unknown means
A lawyer for Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre — who died by unknown means at her home in Australia — has cast doubt on her supposed suicide, insisting, “We’ve got big question marks over it.”
Karrie Louden claimed the 41-year-old mother had shown no sign she wanted to harm herself before she was found dead at her farm in Western Australia last Friday.
“When I got the phone call, I was like, ‘Are you joking?’ Because there was no sign that that was something she was considering,” the lawyer told the Sun.
