    Full-Time Work, Real Pay Raises: How Trump Quietly Rebuilt the Job Market | E.J. Antoni, Ph.D.

    “America’s Job Market Has  Entered the Slow Lane”—that was a recent Wall Street Journal headline. Most of the mainstream media echoes this interpretation, but the reality is much better than the headlines suggest. In fact, it’s as if the reporters who wrote those headlines didn’t read beyond the headline of the jobs report. Here’s what the Dec. 2025 jobs report actually showed:  ✅People working multiple part-time jobs exchanged them for single full-time jobs in December.  ✅During nearly the entire final year of the Biden admin, annual native-born employment was in the red. In 2025, native-born employment beat foreign-born employment by over 1.6 million. ✅The federal workforce is the smallest it’s been since 2014. “So, despite all the naysayers, Trump’s first year back at the helm saw a labor market undergo badly needed structural changes that are making Americans better off… If we keep up with tax reform, regulatory reform, and energy reform, economic growth will turn into a rocket sled on rails.” For more videos like this, subscribe to The Daily Signal’s YouTube channel and enable notifications to be alerted the second a new video drops: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1 ⁠  Learn more about your ad choices.

    California’s SB-79 Is Quietly Redefining Neighborhoods Without Voter Consent |Elaine Culotti

    Local officials in California may be co-opting Wolfgang Puck’s and Frank Gehry’s forthcoming upscale retail center along the Pacific Palisades coastline to install unpopular, high-density housing in the coming future using a little-known, Gavin Newsom-backed bill: SB 79.   “About a year ago,” California passed its Senate Bill No. 79 under the premise of encouraging housing near existing transit hubs, which, in principle, sounded like a good idea with best of intentions.   SB-79 can’t be “implemented unless it's at a train station, bus station, [or] airport transit district,” so most people “didn’t say no to it” because transit districts should only have limited, localized impacts, California Correspondent Elaine Culotti explains.   “This happens in California a lot where things are kind of slipped under the radar because they feel like they're not going to affect you. Well, guess what? They figured out a way to put transit districts in areas that don't have transit districts, after the fact.” For more video commentaries like this one, subscribe to The Daily Signal’s YouTube channel 🎥 ⁠https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1 ⁠   Learn more about your ad choices.

    Trans Activists Are Know ‘They're 'on the Losing Side' of Women's Sports, Lawyer Says

    The pro-transgender lawyers arguing for men's ability to compete in women's sports have begun to realize they have a losing hand, and it's making them desperate, according to a lawyer on the other side of the issue. "I think the other side is starting to recognize they're on the losing side of this issue culturally, politically, in every way," Matt Sharp, senior counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, told The Daily Signal in an interview Tuesday.

    ‘Why Is It Taking So Long’? Senate Health Chair Urges Immediate FDA Action on Abortion Pill

    The Food and Drug Administration should “immediately” restore in-person dispensing requirements for the abortion pill, Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., told The Daily Signal. The senator cited safety concerns in pressing the administration to act. “You don’t have to have a review to know that if a woman has an ectopic pregnancy, she’s gonna have a problem,” Cassidy said. “You don’t have to have a review to know that there’s documented cases of people coerced into taking this.” Under President Joe Biden in April 2021, the administration stopped requiring that abortion drugs be dispensed to women in person. The Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, of which Cassidy is the chair, is holding a hearing Wednesday on protecting women from abortion drugs. Cassidy hopes the hearing will “rehumanize” the issue by demonstrating how the pill harms both women and unborn children. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Mike Huckabee Predicts a ‘Complete Realignment of the Middle East’ as Protests Gain Momentum in Iran

    Anti-regime protests have continued to gain momentum in the Middle East in recent days and U.S. ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee is predicting a “complete realignment of the Middle East.”   “The potential is here for something of Biblical proportion,” Huckabee told The Daily Signal, adding he has used the very same language when speaking with President Donald Trump.   If the Iranian people succeed in removing the regime from power, “that changes everything across the globe,” Huckabee said, adding it will lead to “one of the most unusual times in human history, because there will be a realignment.”  Learn more about your ad choices.

    California’s Billionaires Already Paid Their Fairshare | Elaine Culotti

    Coming off the heels of an already highly partisan, controversial ballot initiative season, Golden State voters are again being presented a choice that will have ramifications for generations to come: The Billionaire Tax Act. During the upcoming general election this fall, California voters will choose whether to impose a one-time 5% tax on residents with net worths over $1 billion, with the goal of raising over $100 billion.  California Representative Ro Khanna, a purported 2028 presidential hopeful whose district includes the corporate headquarters of Silicon Valley’s elites, like Apple and Intel, has already endorsed the wealth tax. Makes sense? No, not really. California’s roughly 200 billionaires,  “pay 47% of the taxes that go into the general fund.  And what we're doing here in California is we have decided that we need to make a hundred billion dollars, right? And the way to get to it is to create this tax on things that have not been sold yet. So the way to get to it is to do a one time 5% charge on the 200 earners in the state that pay the most in taxes already,” argues Daily Signal California Commentator Elaine Culotti.

    America First Hits Venezuela—And Canada Pays the Price | E.J. Antoni

    In war, dependable access to oil is as important as dependable access to kinetic arms. Access to ample reliable flows of oil represents a key strategic interest to the United States.  Western Canada sends over 4 million barrels a day of heavy crude to American refiners.  But now with access to the massive flows of Venezuelan crude following the Trump-led ousting of Nicolas Maduro last week, the U.S. may soon no longer need to rely on Canada for this vital strategic resource.  For months, Canada used its vast reserve of natural resources as leverage in its tariff negotiations with the U.S. Not anymore.  “If the Monroe Doctrine warned Europeans to stay out of the Western Hemisphere and the Roosevelt Corollary established American intervention therein, then the ‘Trump Corollary’ has put a finer, and more economic point on the matter that’s best summed up in two words: America first,” argues Chief Heritage Foundation Economist E.J. Antoni for The Daily Signal on this special video commentary.

    Victor Davis Hanson: Minnesota Somali Fraud, Illegal Trucking Scandals Share One Thing: DEI

    **This episode was recorded before Victor Davis Hanson's December 30 medical operation** Whether it’s some within the Minneapolis Somali community racking in millions of dollars from government grants for fraudulent businesses or severely unqualified illegal aliens obtaining commercial truck driving licenses, these groups were “categorized by officials as on the victimized, oppressed side of the lecture. And therefore, they were not completely audited. Because, if they had been audited, the cries of racism, nativism, etc., prejudice, bias would’ve been voiced. And people didn’t want to be exposed to that,” argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” These non-meritocratic DEI recipients are thrown into a self-perpetuating system that encourages them to continuously engage in illegal activity as they will never face consequences for their actions. When audits stop, deterrence dies—and corruption thrives.
