F-35 Over Washington: President Trump’s Excellent Message to Friend and Foe


“President Trump was right on Wednesday to order an F-35B strike fighter overflight of Washington, D.C. The display was a gesture to visiting Polish President Andrzej Duda. Poland intends to buy a number of F-35s,” Tom Rogan writes in the Washington Examiner.

“But this flypast also sends a broader message to the world . . . It's better to be an American friend than an American enemy. Coupled to the better offer of U.S. economic and political friendship, Trump should keep up this very modern gunboat diplomacy.”

“President Donald Trump’s use of tariffs to pressure Mexico into taking responsibility for its role in the border crisis is a game-changer,” National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd writes in USA Today. “For many years, the Mexican government refused our requests to deter people from crossing the border illegally, and even actively encouraged the exodus of its most impoverished citizens . . . President Trump reversed decades of American passivity toward Mexico’s intransigence.”
“Executives of 60 foreign companies signed on June 12 the ‘Pledge to America’s Workers,’ committing to provide more than 930,000 training and apprenticeship opportunities in the United States,” Emel Akan reports in The Epoch Times. “There’s no better place to exist today and tomorrow than in the United States of America,” Ivanka Trump said at the SelectUSA Investment Summit in Washington yesterday.
“Under the leadership of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and House Democrats, the 116th Congress has refused to so much as entertain anything to address the border, including funding for the Unaccompanied Alien Child Program run by the Department of Health and Human Services, because my Democratic colleagues fear giving the president and the minority party a ‘win,’” Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) writes in Fox News. “The truth to anyone being honest with themselves is that there is a humanitarian problem. It is far past time this body addressed it.” (The New York Times agrees.)
