What We Are Reading

“Trump further reiterated his promises to stabilize the U.S. job market and end “the sellout of American workers.” “I want you to know that my administration is working every single day to create new opportunities and to reverse years of stagnant growth, falling wages, and disappearing jobs. We are ending the sellout of American workers,” the President said. “– The Hill

“What President Trump is seeking is to unite people of all faiths around a common vision of peace, progress and prosperity. He will bring a message of tolerance and of hope to billions, including to millions of Americans who profess these faiths,” Mr. McMaster said during a briefing at the White House.” – Washington Times
