We begin with breaking news this morning—Attorney General Pam Bondi has officially ordered her staff to act on the criminal referral made by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. The referral targets the entire alleged conspiracy to link President Trump to Russian interference in the 2016 election.

It’s almost as if they’ve been tuning in to this show—because Bondi didn’t wait. She’s assigned an unnamed federal prosecutor to present evidence to a Grand Jury. That means indictments could be coming. This is the moment we’ve been building toward ever since DNI Gabbard began rolling out the damning documents—later bolstered by more disclosures from Senator Chuck Grassley.

This is a thunderclap of a development. And one huge takeaway? There will be no leisurely-paced Special Counsel digging through evidence we already have. That’s a blessing—because the American people deserve action, not another years-long fishing expedition.

Meanwhile, a quick detour—what’s really happening with the economy?

Is it thriving? Faltering? A ticking time bomb? Depends on which media flavor you prefer.

Turns out, the U.S. economy came roaring back in Q2 2025 with a 3% GDP jump, a strong rebound from the prior quarter’s 0.5% contraction. Momentum is back, led by consumer spending and a dip in imports, which helped juice domestic production.

Naturally, the White House took a victory lap. National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett didn’t hold back—take a listen:

And suddenly, the narrative shifts. The GDP report completely undercuts the left’s doom-and-gloom about Trump’s economic policies. CNN’s Scott Jennings even took a swing at the naysayers.

Why do liberal economists always seem allergic to good news under Republican leadership? Recession fears get top billing, but when the numbers turn around, it’s crickets. And speaking of the usual suspects, here’s Chuck Schumer throwing shade at the economic gains:

Even CNBC—yes, CNBC—rolled their eyes at Senator Elizabeth Warren’s economic commentary.

So yes, the GDP numbers are a solid “W” for Team Trump—and a blow to the left’s persistent narrative that his policies were dragging us off a cliff.

That said, not everything sparkled. July’s jobs report was less impressive. Only 73,000 jobs were added—well under the expected 100,000. Unemployment ticked up to 4.2%.

The real shocker? Revisions. May and June job numbers were slashed—hard. May’s initial figure of 144,000 dropped to 19,000. June was revised from 147,000 to a paltry 14,000. These weren’t typos—they were “mistakes” made under Commissioner Ericka McEntarfer, a Biden appointee who’s since been fired by Trump.

Of course, this isn’t her first “error.” Remember pre-election 2024, when she credited Joe Biden with adding 800,000 phantom jobs—only to walk it back after Trump won?

Still, even with those shaky numbers, it’s not time to hit the panic button. Yes, the labor market might be cooling, but the fundamentals remain intact. Wages are rising faster than inflation, and here’s the kicker: most job losses are among foreign-born and government workers. Meanwhile, native-born employment and real wage growth under Trump remain strong.

Trump’s America First economic playbook is still running—complete with record deportations and historic cuts to bloated government. So when Senator Chris Coons tries to depress the national mood—

Just remember, the GDP growth is minimized as a “math equation” while every slip in jobs is blamed squarely on Trump. That’s MSNBC logic.

Let’s be clear: MSNBC has long since forfeited the title of “news outlet.” They’re more like a DNC rehearsal stage, telling viewers that Biden’s economy was working, and blaming citizens for “spending too much” when they couldn’t afford groceries.

These are the same folks who championed the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act”—which did nothing to curb inflation and everything to exacerbate it. Biden imposed tariffs too—but that never made headlines like Trump’s did. And let’s be honest—Trump negotiated better deals and brought in more investment than Biden ever dreamed of.

But the left sticks to the script: orange man bad, no matter what.

Me? I’ll take a page from Senator John Kennedy.

He nailed it. Even with soft spots in the economy, I wouldn’t trade it for anyone else’s. And I definitely wouldn’t trade Trump’s leadership for a Democrat whispering sweet nothings about socialism.

More on that later this week.

For now, here’s the bottom line: despite what they’re yelling on cable news, growth is real. Momentum is real. The storm clouds are not as thick as they’d have you believe—and the only emergency is in the minds of those clinging to a collapsing narrative.
