Trump Getting More Done with Smaller, Less Costly White House Staff
- Details
- By Mark Tapscott - The Washington Post
President Donald Trump’s White House staff is much smaller and is costing taxpayers 29% less in the first year of his second term than did Joe Biden’s administration in his last year in the Oval Office in 2024, according to data compiled by the non-profit government transparency watchdog Open the Books (OTB).
Trump “spent just $44.1 million paying 404 employees in 2025, making it the least costly payroll since at least 2009 when adjusting for inflation,” OTB said in a July 8 report. “The new dollar total is also a 29 percent reduction from the White House payroll in 2024, when Joe Biden spent $62.2 million.
New Film 'Pardon Me: The Bevelyn B. Williams Story' Spotlights the High Cost of Conviction in a Politically Divided America
- Details
- By Owlam Studios and Hardrich Inc.
MEDIA ADVISORY -- Pardon Me: The Bevelyn B. Williams Story is a bold and gripping new biographical drama that brings to light the harrowing true story of a fearless pro-life activist who paid the ultimate price for standing on her convictions. Based on real events, the film traces the rise of Bevelyn B. Williams—a passionate Christian woman whose peaceful protests and unapologetic stance for the unborn brought national attention… and federal charges.
Through powerful storytelling and raw emotion, Pardon Me chronicles Bevelyn’s courageous journey from outspoken activist to political target. Her unwavering commitment to faith and truth soon places her in the crosshairs of the Biden Administration’s Department of Justice, which prosecutes her under the controversial FACE Act. What begins as a movement of peaceful resistance spirals into a high-stakes legal battle—one that tests the limits of religious freedom, government authority, and the soul of a nation.

“Get out of here!” yelled about 40 conservative protesters in downtown Pickens on Wednesday as California Governor Gavin Newsome left the Southern Vault building, where he had just finished holding a meet and greet among potential supporters.
Newsome made several 'campaign' stops in the Palmetto State on Tuesday and Wqednesday, no doubt as a prelude to a potential presidential run in 2028. South Carolina, although a smaller state, has an oversized influence in presidential politics in that it is an early primary state.

The OBBB in Bullet Points
In an incredible conclusion to over a year of planning, pushing, and politicking, the One Big, Beautiful Bill “OBBB” (H.R. 1) was signed into law on Independence Day last week. Some are calling it the “biggest conservative victory in 30 years.” Eagle Forum praised its passage in a press release saying, “The One Big, Beautiful Bill reins in decades of reckless spending, secures our nation’s borders, protects the most vulnerable among us, and provides tax relief for all American families.” The OBBB went through several iterations during that time, losing and gaining policies in various committees and floor votes. Here is a breakdown of the key provisions of the law President Trump signed at the July 4th celebration at the White House.
ACT NOW: Senate Armed Services Committee May Consider Two Dangerous Provisions
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
The Senate Armed Services Committee is beginning to draft the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This week, they will be marking it up in committee, where they can present amendments to add or strike language. In recent years, dangerous language has been inserted with the help of a few Republicans. We ask you to urge them not to make the same mistakes!
Previous Senate iterations of the NDAA included a provision that would require women ages 18-25 to register for the Selective Service. Senators ignored the fact that women do not have the same muscular and bone structures as men, and therefore, fewer women would be capable of qualifying for military service. Reports and studies have shown that men outperform women in strength and endurance. Even when they “meet the minimum requirements” for military service, women are injured at twice the rate of men, just as female athletes in high school and college sports suffer much higher rates of injury. Anyone sending young women off to war would be using them as cannon fodder.

Individual Choice vs Government Tyranny: The Debate Goes ON
- Details
- By Tom DeWeese - American Policy Center
In the Fall of 2006, I received a most unexpected invitation to travel to Cambridge University in Great Britain and take part in a debate before a 200-year-old debating society called the Cambridge Union. The issue we were to debate – “This House believes that the United Nations is a dead loss!” There was an issue I could easily get behind.
My opponents in the debate included Simon Hughes, a member of Parliament and President of the Liberal Democrats; Lord David Hanney, Former UK Ambassador to the UN; and Salil Shetty, Director of the UN’s Millennium Campaign. The two other debaters who were supposed to be on my side were both pro-UN leftists. So, it was a typical five-to-one debate.
