As the midterm elections rapidly approach, the White House on Tuesday released a compendium of “Historic Results for the American People.” GOP candidates should campaign on this impressive (albeit non-exhaustive) list of public policy victories secured by President Donald Trump and his Republican allies.
When President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said it, he was lying like a bathmat. Today, it’s true: The border is closed.
“The Trump Administration … has not released a single illegal alien into the country for 15 straight months,” this communiqué crows. Thanks to deportation and self-deportation, “the illegal alien population is down by at least 2.3 million.”
Under Trump, “asylum is now granted in just 7% of cases—a historic low” vs. more than 50% under Biden’s “Everybody in!” policy.
“ICE has arrested more than 10,000 illegal alien gang members,” and Trump has designated the Tren de Aragua and MS-13 cartels as terrorist organizations—all the better to crush them.
Trump signed the Laken Riley Act to hammer violent illegal alien criminals. He also “launched a nationwide crackdown on illegal alien Commercial Driver License fraud.” This is already snatching the keys from unvetted illegals who command 18-wheel rigs, never mind that they cannot read such plain-English signs as “Road Closed” or “Do Not Enter—Wrong Way.” Illegal aliens should not even ride bicycles. They should be deported.

Crime news is excellent. Per the White House, “The U.S. murder rate fell to an historic low in 2025—the lowest level” since 1900. For 2026’s first half, violent crime slipped another 10%, versus 2025’s like period. Rapes are down 18.6%. Murders: 23% lower.
Among the FBI’s 10 most wanted fugitives, Team Trump has captured nine. This is more than double those that Biden’s “Social Justice Department” nabbed over four years. Under Trump and Republicans, the government beautifully performs its primary duty.
On the economy, the Republicans’ “One Big, Beautiful Tax Cut” established No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, and No Tax on certain Social Security benefits.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 also extended the personal and business tax-rate reductions first established via the Trump/GOP Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Never forget: Every congressional Democrat voted against both tax-cut bills.
Trump and the GOP launched Trump Accounts. Parents may open these tax-advantaged investment vehicles for children born in calendar years 2025 through 2028. Parents, employers, and any adult may deposit up to $5,000 per account. Charities may exceed that limit. Each account owner gains control at age 18.
Dell Technologies founder Michael Dell and his wife Susan donated $6.25 billion to endow each account with $250.
Uncle Sam will seed each account with $1,000. While this is “free stuff,” it could boost demand for a sorely needed Social Security private-account option.
Meanwhile, the White House states, “the manufacturing sector has expanded for eight straight months.” In 2026 alone, 58,000 factory jobs have emerged. Under Trump 47, some 100,000 factory-construction workers have been hired, and 1 million private-sector jobs have bloomed.
Simultaneously, Amazon announced $340 billion in domestic investment, amid Apple’s $600 billion and UAE’s $1.4 trillion. The White House cites $11 trillion in domestic and foreign investment in America, none from U.S. taxpayers, all with the smallest federal workforce since 1966.
“Since he first came down the escalator, President Trump has made the American Worker central to his political movement,” White House deputy press secretary Kush Desai told me. “By cutting taxes, securing investments, and unleashing the private sector, the Trump administration has consistently sought to raise wages and create opportunities for every American Worker. This priority will never change.”
Also, Critical Race Theory; Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; boys in girls sports, biological men in women’s locker rooms; child sex-mutilation surgery, and Planned Parenthood all have withered beneath the wrath of Trump and lost their federal subsidies.
Trump’s deregulation will save Americans $1.3 trillion this year. The Green New Steal is dead, and U.S. energy independence is alive and well. Last year, America became the first nation to achieve 100 million metric tons of annual liquefied natural gas exports.
The U.S. Armed Forces jointly met 103% of its recruitment goals. America’s intrepid GIs whisked Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro from his Caracas palace to a Manhattan prison.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead, and his son does not feel too well. Their atomic ambitions glow uselessly in the dark beneath tons of rubble.
Despite price concerns and Persian Gulf uncertainty, not bad at all.
Here is the GOP’s fall rallying cry: Vote Republican—promises made. Promises kept. The best is yet to come!
