A poll by The New York Times and Siena College has revealed an increase in positive perceptions of Donald J. Trump’s presidency since his departure from the White House. The data reveals that just 25 percent think Joe Biden’s tenure has been “mostly good for America” while 42 percent feel the same about President Trump’s first term in office.
A stunning 46 percent say Biden has been “mostly bad for America,” with just 33 percent saying they feel that way about Trump.

The National Pulse’s Editor-in-Chief, Raheem Kassam, has detailed more of his findings – including that just 52 percent of Biden 2020voters are pleased with his performance – in the Editor’s Notes below this post.
The shift in views, with nearly half of respondents asserting that the country improved under his leadership, contrasts with sentiments ahead of the 2020 election. Then, only 39 percent of voters believed the nation was better off after his inauguration.
This change in perspective is seen not only among Mr. Trump’s core supporters, such as non-college degree white voters, but also across a wider segment of the electorate including Hispanic voters, those over 30, and the majority of lower to middle-income voters. All these demographic groups now view Mr. Trump’s presidency as more good than bad.

📍WHEN & WHERE: During a House Judiciary Committee markup session.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Stop just throwing a random dead person’s name on something for your own political expediency.” – Jasmine Crockett
🎯IMPACT: Crockett’s comments sparked backlash, with Congressman Fry calling them “disgusting rhetoric” and demanding an apology to Kayla Hamilton’s family.
IN FULL
During a House Judiciary Committee markup session, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) dismissed Kayla Hamilton, a young woman murdered by an MS-13illegal immigrant, as a “random dead person.” The comments came in response to a bill, the Kayla Hamilton Act, named in honor of the victim.
Kayla Hamilton, 20, was sexually assaulted and strangled to death by Walter Javier Martinez, a 17-year-old migrant who entered the U.S. under Unaccompanied Alien Child (UAC) status. Martinez was sentenced to 70 years in prison earlier this year.
Crockett criticized the naming of legislation after victims, complaining, “Stop just throwing a random dead person’s name on something for your own political expediency.” She further accused Republicans of exploiting killings by migrants for political purposes, claiming, “Y’all find one terrible situation that took place, and then you say that person’s name, and you wear it out, and you make it political.”
🚨 DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR: Rep. Jasmine Crockett just called Kayla Hamilton, a young girl murdered by an illegal alien, a “random dead person.” pic.twitter.com/pSqBF0RAc5
Congressman Russell Fry (R-SC), the sponsor of the Kayla Hamilton Act, condemned Crockett’s remarks, stating, “To dismiss her life so callously is not only disgusting rhetoric, it’s shameful behavior. Let me be clear: Kayla Hamilton was not just a random person. She was a young woman with a family and a future.” Fry called for a public apology from Crockett to Kayla’s family and other Americans affected by crimes committed by illegal immigrants.
The Kayla Hamilton Act would require the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to assess whether unaccompanied alien children pose a danger to themselves or their communities before being released. Kayla’s mother, Tammy Nobles, expressed support for the legislation, stating, “If that had happened in the case of Kayla’s murderer, authorities would have known he was an MS-13 gang member.”

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, George Soros, and Trump administration officials.
📍WHEN & WHERE: Trump’s remarks were made on Friday, September 12, 2025.
💬KEY QUOTE: “We’re going to look into Soros because I think it’s a RICO case against him and other people, because this is more than protests. This is real agitation; this is riots on the street—and we’re going to look into that.” — President Trump
🎯IMPACT: The President’s remarks signal a possible federal crackdown on far-left organizations like Antifa and their financial backers.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump signalled his administration may soon begin investigations into far-left organizations like Antifa and their financial backers, including infamous Hungarian billionaire George Soros and his son Alex. Speaking during a television interview on Friday, President Trump stated, “We’re going to look into Soros because I think it’s a RICO case against him and other people because this is more than protests. This is real agitation; this is riots on the street—and we’re going to look into that.”
Trump’s comments follow previous suggestions of charging the Soros family under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act, particularly for alleged involvement in funding violent opposition to federal immigration enforcement actions and National Guard deployments assisting in crime crackdowns.

Soros’s Open Society Foundation (OSF) responded by denying any support for violent protests, calling the prosecution threats “outrageous.” The foundation claims it has consistently maintained a stance against violence.
This is not the first time President Trump has singled out George and Alex Soros as possible subjects of a RICO investigation. In an August post on Truth Social, Trump wrote: “George Soros, and his Wonderful Radical Left son, should be charged with RICO because of their support of Violent Protests, and much more, all throughout the United States of America. We’re not going to allow these lunatics to rip apart America any more, never giving it so much as a chance to ‘BREATHE,’ and be FREE.”
According to the Department of Justice (DOJ), the federal RICO statute—established in 1970—aims to eliminate organized crime’s infiltration into legitimate organizations. It is broad enough to address illegal activities impacting interstate or foreign commerce. Notably, Soros’s Open Society Foundations have financially supported groups involved in contentious protests and rallies, including one advocating for an accused MS-13 gang member.
Soros’s network has provided millions in funding to organizations such as CASA and Human Rights First, which have been involved in pro-illegal immigrant advocacy and lawsuits against Trump administration policies. Open Society Foundations also allegedly funneled significant funds to groups linked to anti-Israel protests, including those justifying Hamas’s October 7, 2023, terror attacks on Israel.
Soros’s foundations have reportedly funneled over $15 million to groups behind anti-Israel protests since 2016, including $13.7 million through the Tides Center.
❓WHAT HAPPENED: An Iranian lawmaker urged Qatar to expel U.S. forces and allow Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) to deploy missiles on its territory, following an Israeli strike on the Qatari capital of Doha.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The statement was made on Thursday, following the Israeli strike in Doha earlier in the week.
💬KEY QUOTE: “I propose that the U.S. Army, accomplice of Israel, be expelled from Qatar, and that the Revolutionary Guard aerospace force deploy Fattah hypersonic missiles on your soil to defend your sovereignty,” Zarei stated.
🎯IMPACT: The proposal highlights growing tensions in the Gulf region amid expanding Israeli military operations, and Iran’s push to expand its military influence.
IN FULL
Iran is urging Qatar to expel American military forces from Al Udeid Air Base—a regional command hub for U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM)—and instead allow Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to deploy missiles in the country. The move, ostensibly in response to Israel’s recent strike on the Qatari capital of Doha targeting leaders of the Hamas terrorist group, is unlikely to receive much serious consideration from Qatar’s government.
The Israeli strike on Tuesday killed a Qatari security officer and several Hamas members. Iran has accused the U.S. of complicity in the attack, putting Qatar in a precarious position. However, Iran also attacked Qatar earlier this year with missiles, after the United States bombed and destroyed several Iranian nuclear program facilities. Notably, the Iranian missiles were easily intercepted by U.S. air defenses in Qatar.
Mojtaba Zarei, an Iranian lawmaker, addressed Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani in a statement on X (formerly Twitter). “I propose that the U.S. Army, accomplice of Israel, be expelled from Qatar, and that the Revolutionary Guard aerospace force deploy Fattah hypersonic missiles on your soil to defend your sovereignty,” he wrote in Farsi. Zarei also suggested that the emir should request support from the Revolutionary Guard in Qatar.
Iran’s armed forces have accused the U.S. of backing Israel’s actions, with Major General Abdolrahim Mousavi stating, “The Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran will never hesitate to support our Qatari brothers.” However, U.S. President Donald J. Trump has clarified, “This was a decision made by Prime Minister Netanyahu; it was not a decision made by me,” and come out strongly against the attack.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has confirmed Israel’s sole responsibility for the operation.
❓WHAT HAPPENED: The European Union (EU) pledged to purchase $750 billion of American oil, gas, and nuclear energy over the next three years as part of a trade deal with the United States.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The huge American abundant energy resources allow us to be a key energy supplier to our allies around the world that previously have been buying oil and gas and other technologies from adversaries.” – Chris Wright
🎯IMPACT: The deal aims to reduce EU dependency on Russian fossil fuels while strengthening U.S.-EU energy ties and addressing global energy security concerns.
IN FULL
The European Union (EU) has committed to purchasing $750 billion worth of American oil, gas, and nuclear energy over the next three years, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright revealed during his visit to Brussels, Belgium. This agreement is part of a broader reset in global energy relations.
“I think it’s a long-term change,” Wright stated, emphasizing the significant infrastructure investments required for energy trade, particularly liquefied natural gas (LNG). He added, “This isn’t going to be three and a half years, and it’ll all be over.”
While Wright portrayed the deal as a long-term partnership, the European Commission described it as a short-term measure to address immediate energy needs. Ursula von der Leyen, the EU Commission President, also called for the development of “clean homegrown energy” during a speech in Strasbourg, France.
Wright highlighted the mutual benefits of the deal, stating that it would help the EU phase out Russian fossil fuels. He noted that the US capacity to export LNG would double under the Trump administration. However, analysts have questioned the feasibility of the $750 billion target, though Wright argued it could be met by replacing Russian energy imports directly and indirectly.
Diplomatic sources suggest that President Donald J. Trump has pressed the EU to impose 100 percent tariffs on China and India, countries that continue to purchase Russian energy. Wright declined to comment on this but reiterated that the U.S. is positioning itself as a reliable energy supplier to allies worldwide. “The huge American abundant energy resources allow us to be a key energy supplier to our allies around the world that previously have been buying oil and gas and other technologies from adversaries,” he said.
❓WHAT HAPPENED: The Pentagon issued a firm warning against celebrating or mocking the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.

💬KEY QUOTE: “It is unacceptable for military personnel and Department of War civilians to celebrate or mock the assassination of a fellow American,” said Sean Parnell.
🎯IMPACT: Military leadership has committed to addressing inappropriate behavior swiftly and decisively.
IN FULL
The Pentagon has announced a “zero tolerance” policy toward any personnel who celebrate or mock the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Sean Parnell, the Assistant Secretary of War for Public Affairs, stated late Thursday: “It is unacceptable for military personnel and Department of War civilians to celebrate or mock the assassination of a fellow American. The Department of War has zero tolerance for it.”
War Department Secretary Pete Hegseth amplified Parnell’s message, writing in a post on X (formerly Twitter), “We are tracking all these very closely—and will address immediately. Completely unacceptable.”
Secretary of the Navy John Phelan also issued a warning, declaring, “I want to be very clear: any uniformed or civilian employee of the Department of the Navy who acts in a manner that brings discredit upon the Department, the [U.S. Navy] or the [U.S. Marine Corps] will be dealt with swiftly and decisively.”
Representative Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) responded directly to Phelan, stating, “I will be explicitly clear with you… if you do not take prompt, direct, and decisive action to clear the ranks of this shit from my Navy, I will do everything in my power to kick you to the curb. If your JAG’s have a problem with this, they can find a job somewhere else. Wearing a uniform is a privilege not a right. You will unfuck this promptly.”

Leaders from other branches of the military, including Air Force Secretary Troy Meink and Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, echoed similar sentiments. Secretary Driscoll stated, “Posts that celebrate or mock the assassination of a fellow American are inconsistent with Army values. Full stop.”
The National Pulse reported on Wednesday that MSNBC terminated senior political analyst Matthew Dowd just hours after he made remarks on the assassination of Kirk, suggesting he had drawn “hateful actions” on himself.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The deployment would not be limited to the National Guard, and could include the Army if needed.” – President Trump
🎯IMPACT: Part of a broader anti-crime initiative to address public safety concerns in Memphis.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump announced on Friday that he would be deploying the National Guard to Memphis, Tennessee, as part of his ongoing anti-crime initiative. The President emphasized that the deployment would not be limited to the National Guard and could extend to include the Army if necessary. This marks a significant step in addressing public safety concerns in the city.
“The deployment would not be limited to the National Guard, and could include the Army if needed,” Trump stated. This move is part of a broader initiative by the Trump administration to tackle crime in urban areas.
Already, the Trump White House has seen success with the deployment of National Guard troops in Washington, D.C. These units have been able to replace the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) in more public, high-traffic areas, allowing the MPD, assisted by federal law enforcement, to focus on more direct policing in high-crime neighborhoods. This has resulted in a significant reduction of crime in the capital, especially carjackings.

💬KEY QUOTE: “I think with a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody, in custody. Everyone did a great job. We worked with the local police, the governor.” – Donald Trump
🎯IMPACT: Authorities have reportedly recovered the suspected weapon and are continuing their investigation. Trump plans to posthumously award Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
IN FULL
President Donald J. Trump announced during a Fox & Friends appearance that a suspect is in custody in relation to the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. The suspect has now been named as Tyler Robinson, a 22-year-old from Washington County, Utah, reportedly turned in by his father.
Trump stated, “I think with a high degree of certainty, we have him in custody, in custody. Everyone did a great job. We worked with the local police, the governor.”
Video footage had been released showing the suspect dropping from a rooftop after the shooting. Authorities had asked for public assistance in identifying him, offering a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
Trump shared that the suspect’s father played a role in convincing him to surrender, saying, “The father convinced the son, ‘This is it.’ I am always subject to be corrected, but I’m just giving you based on what I am hearing.”
Initial reports from Utah Valley University suggested a suspect had been apprehended, but they turned out not to be the shooter. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel later indicated that a second “subject” had been caught, but they were also released.
Authorities have reportedly recovered what they believe is the weapon used in the attack, a high-powered bolt-action rifle, found in a nearby wooded area. Kirk had been addressing a crowd of college students when he was struck by a single shot to the neck. Trump has pledged to award him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Data collected since February 2021 at Jezero Crater on Mars, with possible signs of organic life discovered last year, and findings published recently in a peer-reviewed study.
💬KEY QUOTE: “Astrobiological claims, particularly those related to the potential discovery of past extraterrestrial life, require extraordinary evidence.” – Katie Stack Morgan
🎯IMPACT: The findings suggest Mars may have been habitable later in its history than previously thought, and older rocks might hold harder-to-detect signs of life.
IN FULL
The combination of minerals found in rocks on Mars could be a potential indicator of microbial life. These minerals appear to have formed through electron-transfer reactions between sediment and organic matter, a process that microbes could use to produce energy for growth. However, the minerals can also form through non-biological processes, such as high temperatures, acidic conditions, or organic compound binding.
The discovery is particularly notable because it involves some of the youngest sedimentary rocks studied during the mission. This challenges earlier assumptions that evidence of ancient life would only be found in older formations. It also suggests that Mars may have been habitable for a longer period or later in its history than previously believed.
“Astrobiological claims, particularly those related to the potential discovery of past extraterrestrial life, require extraordinary evidence,” said Katie Stack Morgan, Perseverance’s project scientist at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). She emphasized the importance of peer-reviewed publication to validate findings.
The scientific community utilizes tools like the CoLD scale and Standards of Evidence to evaluate potential signs of life. These frameworks help determine the level of confidence in data suggesting extraterrestrial life, improving the rigor of such claims.
Since landing at Jezero Crater in February 2021, the Perseverance rover has collected 27 rock cores. The rover is equipped with advanced instruments, including a weather station and swatches of spacesuit material for future human mission studies. NASA JPL, managed by Caltech, oversees the rover’s operations as part of NASA’s Mars Exploration Program.

🎯IMPACT: The recruitment push bolsters ICE’s manpower for mass deportations.
IN FULL
The Trump administration’s recruitment drive to bolster the number of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers is making significant headway, with 141,000 applications and 18,000 tentative job offers since the campaign began in late July. The Trump administration initiated the effort to expand ICE’s operational capacity, offering incentives such as $50,000 sign-on bonuses, student loan forgiveness, and enhanced retirement benefits.
“ICE has received more than 141,000 applications from patriotic Americans who want to defend the homeland by removing the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens from the U.S. We have already given more than 18,000 tentative job offers,” Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem stated, adding: “Americans are answering their country’s call to serve and help remove murderers, pedophiles, rapists, terrorists, and gang members from our country.”
ICE agents have undertaken a number of large-scale immigration enforcement actions in major cities like Los Angeles, California, Chicago, Illinois, and Washington, D.C., targeting foreigners in the country illegally who have criminal charges or convictions. New detention centers, such as “Alligator Alcatraz” in Florida, have been established to hold illegals before deportation.
Notably, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” signed by President Donald J. Trump in July, funds 10,000 new ICE positions and eliminates the age cap for applicants—aimed at encouraging retired law enforcement officers to consider joining the agency.
The National Pulse reported on Monday that ICE is launching a major immigration enforcement operation in Chicago—dubbed the ‘Midway Blitz’—which is utilizing a U.S. Navy facility on Lake Michigan just north of the Democrat-controlled city. “This ICE operation will target the criminal illegal aliens who flocked to Chicago and Illinois because they knew Governor Pritzker and his sanctuary policies would protect them and allow them to roam free on American streets,” DHS stated on X (formerly Twitter).
DHS has also encouraged self-deportation through the retooled CBP Home app.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The ruling was issued two weeks ago by the Southern District of New York, with a press conference held in New York City on Wednesday.
💬KEY QUOTE: “There were at least 13 Saudi government officials connected to the Ministry of Islamic Affairs… funneling support… to the hijackers’ handlers, right down to the hijackers themselves.” – Plaintiff Brett Eagleson
🎯IMPACT: The case is likely headed for trial, potentially exposing Saudi Arabia’s alleged role in the 9/11 attacks.
IN FULL
A group of family members of 9/11 victims is celebrating a federal court ruling that allows their lawsuit, aimed at holding Saudi Arabia accountable for its alleged role in the 2001 terrorist attacks, to proceed. Senior U.S. District Court Judge George Daniels found it is reasonable to infer, as claimed in the lawsuit, that two individuals named in the lawsuit were sent by elements of the Saudi government to the United States in an effort to provide support to the al-Qaeda terrorists plotting the attack.
“Some of the disputed facts cannot be resolved at this stage of the litigation, because weighing the evidence or assessing witnesses’ credibility will need to take place at trial,” Judge Daniels wrote in his 45-page ruling. The federal judge continued: “Nonetheless, the entire body of undisputed facts, and the Court’s preliminary assessment of certain disputed facts, are adequate for the Court to conclude that the exercise of subject matter jurisdiction is appropriate here.”
One of the lead plaintiffs, Brett Eagleson—the son of 9/11 victim Jon Eagleson—called the ruling a “historic, landmark decision” that is based on “indefensible evidence” that the Saudi government played a role in the attack.
“There were at least 13 Saudi government officials connected to the Ministry of Islamic Affairs. They were working and operating in and out of the Saudi consulates and the Saudi embassies,” Eagleson said, continuing: “They were funneling support from the Ministry of Islamic Affairs in Washington, D.C., to their embassies in San Diego, to the hijackers’ handlers, right down to the hijackers themselves.”
“It’s been 24 years of pain and anguish and fighting for our families. What happened to this community, what happened to America that day, was horrific. However, what’s happening currently and what’s been happening for the past 24 years has been an abomination,” he added.
The ruling likely clears the way for the lawsuit to proceed to trial. Saudi Arabia has persistently denied claims of its involvement in 9/11.
