U.S. ‘Adds’ 256,000 Jobs, But Are the Numbers Real, and Who’s Getting the Work?

In December, the U.S. labor market purportedly added 256,000 jobs, exceeding economists’ predictions. This performance appears to have surpassed the anticipated increase of just 153,000 jobs. Additionally, the unemployment rate dropped to 4.1 percent, defying expectations that it would hold at 4.2 percent.

However, as The National Pulse has previously reported, the Biden government has a track record of releasing fake employment numbers, only for them to be “revised down” in subsequent quarters.

Further analysis revealed most new jobs created under the Biden government are going to new migrants, rather than American workers.

Ger Doyle, U.S. country manager at ManpowerGroup, viewed the December jobs report positively, calling it a promising indicator. Nonetheless, Doyle cautioned that the labor market might face hurdles until inflation is more contained, potentially affecting hiring, layoffs, and job growth.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics highlighted that significant job gains occurred in the health care, government, and social assistance sectors. Retail companies also saw an increase in employment, following a decline in November.

U.S. and Israel Leave Gaza Ceasefire Talks, Blame Hamas.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: The United States and Israel withdrew their negotiators from Gaza ceasefire talks, blaming Hamas for the failure to reach an agreement.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Hamas representatives.

📍WHEN & WHERE: July 24, 2025, in Doha, Qatar.

💬KEY QUOTE: “If Hamas interprets our willingness to reach a deal as a weakness… it is gravely mistaken.” – Benjamin Netanyahu

🎯IMPACT: The breakdown of talks leaves no end in sight to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

IN FULL

The United States and Israel have withdrawn their negotiators from Gaza ceasefire talks, with U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff accusing Hamas of failing to act in good faith. The talks, held in Doha, Qatar, aimed at ending nearly two years of fighting, have not reached a breakthrough.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reaffirmed his government’s commitment to seeking a ceasefire but criticized Hamas for blocking efforts to end the conflict. He stated, “If Hamas interprets our willingness to reach a deal as a weakness… it is gravely mistaken.”

Mediators have been working for over two weeks to facilitate discussions between the Israeli and Hamas delegations, but the talks have not yielded results. The humanitarian situation in Gaza remains dire, with warnings of “mass starvation” spreading among the population.

Hamas’s response to the latest ceasefire proposal included amendments concerning aid entry, withdrawal maps, and guarantees for a permanent end to hostilities. Witkoff indicated that the U.S. would consider alternative options to stabilize the region and secure the release of hostages.

International attention is focused on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Israel maintains that it is not responsible for the crisis, attributing the situation to Hamas’s actions in attacking Israel on October 7, 2023.

Trump Blocks Feds from Using Woke AI.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order mandating that artificial intelligence (AI) models procured by the federal government prioritize truthfulness and ideological neutrality.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald J. Trump, federal agencies, and AI developers.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The Executive Order was signed Wednesday, July 23, 2025, in Washington, D.C.

💬KEY QUOTE: “We will terminate every diversity, equity, and inclusion program across the entire federal government.” – Donald J. Trump

🎯IMPACT: The Order should ensure AI models used by the federal government adhere to principles of truthfulness and neutrality, avoiding ideological bias.

IN FULL

President Donald J. Trump signed an Executive Order late Wednesday mandating that artificial intelligence (AI) models used by the federal government prioritize truthfulness and ideological neutrality. The Order outlines “Unbiased AI Principles,” which include truth-seeking and ideological neutrality as core tenets.

According to the presidential directive, truth-seeking AI models are required to prioritize historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity, acknowledging uncertainty when information is incomplete or contradictory. Ideological neutrality mandates that AI models remain nonpartisan, avoiding manipulation of responses to favor ideologies like diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

The Order directs federal agencies to procure only AI models compliant with these principles. It also requires contracts with AI vendors to include accountability measures, such as cost coverage if noncompliance leads to contract termination. The Director of the Office of Management and Budget will issue guidance to enforce these directives.

President Trump emphasized the importance of trustworthy AI, citing examples of biased outputs from existing models. These include AI systems altering historical representations for DEI purposes and prioritizing ideological compliance over factual accuracy. Such practices, the Trump White House argues, erode public trust in AI systems.

The Executive Order is part of a broader effort by President Trump to eliminate DEI-driven policies across the federal government. In recent months, he has signed multiple actions to dismantle DEI programs in federal agencies, defense, and education, ensuring that government initiatives prioritize fairness and merit. “We will terminate every diversity, equity, and inclusion program across the entire federal government,” President Trump pledged earlier this year.

After 20 Years, Australia Reverses American Beef Ban.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Australia announced the lifting of restrictions on U.S. beef imports after two decades.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins, and President Donald Trump.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Announcement made Thursday, July 24, 2025, in Australia; restrictions have been in place for 20 years.

💬KEY QUOTE: “American farmers and ranchers produce the safest, healthiest beef in the world. It’s absurd that non-scientific trade barriers prevented our beef from being sold to consumers in Australia for the last 20 years.” – U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins.

🎯IMPACT: U.S. beef producers gain greater access to the Australian market, marking a significant trade breakthrough.

IN FULL

In a major shift, Australia’s left-wing Labor government, led by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, has announced the lifting of restrictions on American beef imports. This decision follows two decades of trade barriers that kept American farmers out of the Australian market.

Julie Collins, Australia’s Agricultural Minister, stated that the restrictions were originally implemented to prevent the spread of mad cow disease and that lifting them would lead to a more open and competitive marketplace in Australia. “Australia stands for open and free trade—our cattle industry has significantly benefited from this,” Collins said in a statement.

Meanwhile, U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins praised the announcement as a “major trade breakthrough,” crediting President Donald J. Trump’s efforts to ensure fair and free trade with America’s trade partners. Rollins stated, “American farmers and ranchers produce the safest, healthiest beef in the world. It’s absurd that non-scientific trade barriers prevented our beef from being sold to consumers in Australia for the last 20 years.”

President Trump had previously criticized Australia’s restrictions, announcing tariffs on Australian imports earlier this year. He stated, “Australia bans—and they’re wonderful people, and wonderful everything—but they ban American beef. Yet we imported $3 billion of Australian beef from them just last year alone.”

Canberra has not yet set a date for the full lifting of restrictions.

Federal Court Strikes Down Trump Order Ending Birthright Citizenship.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has found President Donald J. Trump’s Executive Order ending birthright citizenship unconstitutional and issued a nationwide injunction blocking the measure.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Trump, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the Department of Justice (DOJ), the U.S. Supreme Court, and illegal immigrants and their children.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The decision was handed down late Wednesday, July 24, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: “The district court correctly concluded that the Executive Order’s proposed interpretation, denying citizenship to many persons born in the United States, is unconstitutional. We fully agree.” — 9th Circuit’s majority

🎯IMPACT: The ruling marks a significant legal setback for the Trump White House; however, it does clear the path for the administration to bring the matter before the U.S. Supreme Court.

IN FULL

Late Wednesday evening, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals handed down a ruling declaring President Donald J. Trump‘s Executive Order ending birthright citizenship unconstitutional. The ruling marks a significant legal setback for the Trump White House; however, it does clear the path for the administration to bring the matter before the U.S. Supreme Court.

“The district court correctly concluded that the Executive Order’s proposed interpretation, denying citizenship to many persons born in the United States, is unconstitutional. We fully agree,” the 9th Circuit’s majority wrote. In addition, the judges agreed with the plaintiffs, a coalition of Democrat governed states, that the matter fell under the exceptions laid out by the Supreme Court justices regarding their restrictions on nationwide injunctions: “We conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in issuing a universal injunction in order to give the States complete relief.”

“We should approach any request for universal relief with good faith skepticism, mindful that the invocation of ‘complete relief’ isn’t a backdoor to universal injunctions,” Judge Patrick Bumatay wrote in dissent. The judge argued that it is unlikely the states have the proper legal standing to sue, but did not directly address the constitutionality of President Trump’s Executive Order.

The Constitution’s 14th Amendment states, “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” However, the Department of Justice (DOJ) maintains that the clause in the amendment stating “subject to United States jurisdiction” means it does not necessarily grant citizenship to a child simply for being born in the United States.

The coalition of Democratic states points to the precedent established by the 1898 Supreme Court decision in United States v. Wong Kim Ark. In that decision, the high court held, “a child born in the United States, of parents of Chinese descent, who, at the time of his birth, are subjects of the Emperor of China, but have a permanent domicile and residence in the United States, and are there carrying on business, and are not employed in any diplomatic or official capacity under the Emperor of China,” was granted U.S. citizenship at birth.

However, the DOJ and critics of the United States’ birthright citizenship policies contend that the decision does not apply to the children of immigrants in the country illegally. The Supreme Court has not clarified whether this is the case.

House Panel Approves Subpoenas for Clintons Over Epstein Connections.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: A House Oversight panel subcommittee voted to authorize subpoenas for Bill and Hillary Clinton over their links to deceased pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted of trafficking minors for him.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Bill and Hillary Clinton, Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA).

📍WHEN & WHERE: The motion was issued during a Federal Law Enforcement Subcommittee hearing on Wednesday.

💬KEY QUOTE: “I wish I had never met him,” Clinton wrote, complaining it was “not worth the years of questioning afterward.”

🎯IMPACT: The subpoenas could compel the Clintons and others to provide testimony or documents regarding Epstein and Maxwell.

IN FULL

Former President Bill Clinton and his wife, Hillary Clinton, could be subpoenaed to testify on their alleged ties to convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, after a House Oversight subcommittee voted to compel their testimony. Congressman Scott Perry (R-PA) introduced the motion on Wednesday during a meeting of Oversight’s Federal Law Enforcement Subcommittee. The subpoena was approved by a Republican-led panel via voice vote, without a roll call.

The Clintons, along with several former top Justice Department (DOJ) officials—including ex-Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director James Comey, one-time special counsel Robert Mueller, and former attorneys general Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, Merrick Garland, Bill Barr, Jeff Sessions, and Alberto Gonzales—were included in the list of subpoenas sought by Perry to “expand the full committee’s investigation into Ms. Maxwell.”

House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) will ultimately decide whether to issue the subpoenas to compel the Clintons and others to provide testimony or documents to the panel. Former President Clinton acknowledged in his 2024 book, Citizen: My Life After the White House, that he flew aboard Epstein’s private plane, nicknamed the Lolita Express, as part of his work with the Clinton Global Initiative nonprofit. “I wish I had never met him,” Clinton wrote, adding it was “not worth the years of questioning afterward.”

Epstein also visited the White House at least 17 times shortly after Clinton was sworn into office in 1993.

In December 2021, a jury convicted Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors, transporting a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, and three counts of conspiracy. She was later sentenced to 20 years in prison.

The Department of Justice filed a motion on Wednesday to unseal grand jury testimonies related to Epstein. The motion, filed in the United States District Court’s Southern District of New York (SDNY), called for the release of grand jury transcripts associated with the Epstein indictment.

“At the direction of the Attorney General, the Department of Justice hereby moves the Court to release grand jury transcripts associated with the above-referenced indictment,” the court document stated.

However, Barack Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Robin Rosenberg denied the request.

Columbia University Agrees $220m Settlement With Trump.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Columbia University agreed to a $200 million settlement with the Trump administration and an additional $20 million payment to Jewish employees over claims of harassment and anti-Israel protests.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: President Donald J. Trump, Columbia University, Secretary Linda McMahon, and acting University President Claire Shipman.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The settlement was announced Wednesday night, involving Columbia University in New York City.

💬KEY QUOTE: “Columbia has agreed to pay a penalty of $200 Million Dollars to the United States Government for violating Federal Law, in addition to over $20 Million to their Jewish employees who were unlawfully targeted and harassed.” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: Columbia must review its Middle East-related programs, eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, and ensure merit-based admissions and hiring practices.

IN FULL

On Wednesday, President Donald J. Trump revealed that Columbia University will pay $200 million to resolve issues stemming from its management of anti-Israel protests and other issues, with $200 million going to the federal government and $20 million compensating Jewish employees “who were unlawfully targeted and harassed.”

As previously reported by The National Pulse, Columbia had been facing far harsher punishment, including the loss of $400 million in federal grants, its tax-exempt status, and potentially its accreditation, with controversial former Jeffrey Epstein lawyer Jay Lefkowitz said to have stepped in to negotiate a more favorable settlement.

“I am pleased to announce that the Trump Administration has reached a historic agreement with Columbia University. Columbia has agreed to pay a penalty of $200 Million Dollars to the United States Government for violating Federal Law, in addition to over $20 Million to their Jewish employees who were unlawfully targeted and harassed,” Trump said of the deal on Truth Social. He emphasized Columbia’s pledge to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, adopt merit-based admissions, and safeguard civil liberties.

The agreement mandates Columbia to reassess its Middle East-related programs, with the senior vice provost tasked with enhancing support for Jewish students. While denying liability, the university acknowledged that “Jewish students and faculty have experienced painful, unacceptable incidents.”

The settlement also bans DEI programs promoting race-based outcomes or quotas, enforces merit-based admissions without racial proxies, and requires detailed admissions data for compliance. Hiring must prioritize individual merit.

Interim President Claire Shipman called the settlement “an important step forward after a period of sustained federal scrutiny and institutional uncertainty,” noting it reinstates the university’s federal research partnership. This follows Columbia’s disciplinary actions against over 70 students involved in anti-Israel protests.

Bondi’s Deputy Is Meeting Epstein Accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell Today.

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche announced plans to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s former associate, in Florida, where she is serving her sentence for child sex trafficking.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Ghislaine Maxwell, and the Trump administration.

📍WHEN & WHERE: The meeting is expected to take place at the Federal Correctional Institution-Tallahassee on Thursday, July 24, 2025.

💬KEY QUOTE: The House Oversight Committee has approved a subpoena for Maxwell, with President Donald J. Trump stating the move “sounds appropriate.”

🎯IMPACT: The meeting and related developments in the Epstein case have reignited public calls for transparency regarding the deceased pedophile’s associates and files.

IN FULL

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has announced plans to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell on Thursday in Florida, where she is serving a 20-year sentence for her role in Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse of underage girls. The meeting comes amid ongoing scrutiny over the handling of Epstein-related files.

Maxwell’s attorneys have confirmed that she is “in discussions” with the government. The former associate of Epstein, now 63, was convicted in 2021 and is currently held at the Federal Correctional Institution-Tallahassee (FCI Tallahassee). Her legal team has appealed her conviction to the Supreme Court.

The House Oversight Committee has approved a subpoena for Maxwell, with Trump stating the move “sounds appropriate.” Meanwhile, Attorney General Pam Bondi has faced pressure to release further documents related to the case. Bondi revealed earlier this year that she had a “truckload” of Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) files and suggested Epstein’s client list was “on [her] desk.” However, she has released only a limited tranche of documents and questionable video footage since then, with the Department of Justice (DOJ) now claiming no “client list” exists.

Trump, who has called for the media and public to move on from the Epstein matter, previously criticized the continued focus on the case, saying, “Are people still talking about this guy, this creep? That is unbelievable.” On Truth Social, he dismissed the issue as “bulls**t” and accused critics of his stance of aiding Democrats.

Trump Admin Tagging 180,000 Illegals With Ankle Monitors: ‘If You Don’t Want to Wear One, Leave.’

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has been instructed to increase the use of GPS-enabled ankle monitors for immigrants in the Alternatives to Detention program.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: ICE personnel, immigrants enrolled in the Alternatives to Detention program, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin.

📍WHEN & WHERE: McLaughlin said that illegals who do not want to wear ankle monitors should leave the country on July 24.

💬KEY QUOTE: “If you are in America illegally, you may be ‘shackled’ with a GPS ankle monitor. If you don’t want to wear one, you should leave the country now.” — DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin 

🎯IMPACT: The policy could significantly expand surveillance and affect thousands of immigrants, with potential business impacts for private companies involved.

IN FULL

The Trump administration has increased the use of GPS-enabled ankle monitors for illegal immigrants, according to an internal ICE document. ICE has instructed personnel to apply these devices to all migrants in the Alternatives to Detention program—around 183,000 people, compared to only 24,000 who are tagged at present—wherever it is feasible. An exception is made for pregnant women, who will wear wrist-worn devices instead.

Critics of immigration controls in the Democratic Party, nonprofits, and corporate media argue the devices are stigmatizing, with The Washington Post suggesting illegals are being “shackled”—despite admitting they are only as heavy as a deck of cards.

The Trump administration is taking these criticisms in stride, with Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin responding on Thursday, “Yes. If you are in America illegally, you may be ‘shackled’ with a GPS ankle monitor. If you don’t want to wear one, you should leave the country now through the [CBP] Home app!”

ICE spokeswoman Emily Covington stated that ankle monitors are an “enforcement tool” to ensure compliance with immigration laws, adding that “more accountability shouldn’t come as a surprise.”

Trump Says Musk’s Firms Would Die Without Taxpayer Subsidy, But Says He’ll Keep Them…

PULSE POINTS

WHAT HAPPENED: Former President Trump addressed concerns about subsidies for Elon Musk’s companies.

👤WHO WAS INVOLVED: Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

📍WHEN & WHERE: Trump made the statement on Truth Social this morning.

💬KEY QUOTE: “I want Elon, and all businesses within our Country, to THRIVE, in fact, THRIVE like never before!” – Donald Trump

🎯IMPACT: Trump intends to maintain existing subsidies to support Elon Musk‘s profits, after a week of Musk attacking Trump over his reported Epstein links.

IN FULL

Donald Trump took to his Truth Social platform to clarify his stance on government subsidies for Elon Musk’s companies. Amidst speculation that he might cut these subsidies, Trump stated that he has no intention of doing so. The statement comes after Musk spent weeks trashing Trump over his purported links to Jeffrey Epstein.

“Everyone is stating that I will destroy Elon’s companies by taking away some, if not all, of the large scale subsidies he receives from the U.S. Government. This is not so!” Trump declared, emphasizing his new-found support for Musk’s ventures, and taxpayer subsidy in what appears to be an attempt to buy Musk’s silence.

Trump expressed his fresh desire for Musk’s companies to thrive off government welfare.

“The better they do, the better the USA does, and that’s good for all of us,” he claimed.

The president highlighted the record-setting business achievements of the nation and his wish to maintain this positive trajectory.
