In a recent political newsletter, various developments in the Trump administration and its impact on both domestic and international affairs are highlighted. Notably, President Trump announced the nomination of Mike Waltz as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations following his removal from the National Security Council role, with Marco Rubio temporarily stepping in as National Security Advisor. Meanwhile, controversy surrounds the Biden administration's green agenda, with GOP lawmakers criticizing the exclusion of its repeal in a Trump tax bill. Additionally, tension in the U.S.-China relations escalates as CIA videos aim to influence Chinese officials for intelligence purposes, and China's response includes blaming the U.S. for COVID-19 origins. Domestic issues also feature prominently, such as debates over education freedom and religious charter schools, as well as military reforms under the Trump administration aimed at enhancing readiness against global threats like China.
