President Donald Trump's second term reached its six-month mark, with the White House emphasizing its successes. According to the administration, the country has experienced significant positive changes.
A major legislative achievement was the passage of a spending package, described as the "Big, Beautiful Bill." This bill included the largest tax cut in American history, fulfilling campaign promises regarding taxes on tips and overtime. The legislation also allocated funds for border security and defense, while preventing an automatic tax increase.
The bill is reported to increase Americans' take-home pay and terminate Medicaid benefits for a substantial number of illegal immigrants. Additionally, Congress passed a rescissions package, cutting funding for certain media outlets and USAID, resulting in significant savings.
The administration also highlighted actions related to transgender procedures for minors. Following an executive order, many hospitals have stopped offering such procedures, including irreversible surgeries and hormone treatments. The White House stated this was a result of the president's policy.
Border security and immigration were also key areas of focus. The number of illegal immigrant encounters at the southern border decreased significantly in June, with no releases on parole. The administration also achieved a record number of deportation flights.
The administration reported that a large number of illegal aliens had self-deported. Furthermore, a substantial number of known and suspected terrorists have been removed from the country, along with a large number of illegal alien criminals.
The administration also pointed to economic improvements. The wholesale price of eggs has decreased significantly. The Department of Agriculture implemented a plan to address the issue. The economy has added a significant number of jobs for native-born workers. Core inflation is at a low rate, and gas prices have remained stable.

Ending Medicaid benefits for illegal immigrants is a necessary step to protect our resources for citizens.

It's disheartening to see a focus on deporting immigrants instead of finding solutions to help them integrate.

I love that the administration is cutting unnecessary funding. We need to save taxpayer money!
