Blue collar wages increase dramatically under Trump

 DC Daily Journal:

...

President Donald Trump kicked off Tuesday’s Cabinet meeting with a powerful focus on the economic wins fueling a historic surge for American workers. He announced that the average worker has seen a $500 wage increase in 2025, with blue-collar wages rising at their fastest pace in 60 years—a milestone that signals robust growth for the backbone of America’s economy.

“The wages for blue-collar workers are now rising at the fastest rate in 60 years, which is so important to all of us around this table. The average American worker has already seen a $500 wage increase this year,” Trump stated.

This wage growth isn’t just a number—it’s outpacing inflation, giving workers more bang for their buck as their incomes climb faster than the cost of everyday goods. Trump tied this economic stability to America’s booming energy sector, giving a nod to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum and Energy Secretary Chris Wright for their standout efforts.

“There’s no inflation because there’s been decreases, tremendous decreases, thanks to Doug and Chris, some of the people, the great job they’ve done with energy. Thank you very much,” Trump said, pointing to the sharp drop in energy costs.

“I see you’re down close to $60 a barrel, and you’ll be breaking that pretty soon, and that has a huge impact.”

The good news doesn’t stop there. Trump also highlighted falling grocery prices, including a significant dip in egg prices, and gave a shout-out to Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins for her stellar work.
...

The Trump economy has made a significant recovery from the Biden era, or should I say the Biden errors. You can see how much better it is when you take your vehicle in for a fill-up. Biden thought he needed to deal with the environmental aspects of fossil fuels, and he turned out to be wrong.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
