Trump receives stark warning from analyst: 'You've lost the New York Post'

President Donald Trump received a stark warning from a political analyst Saturday morning. Commentator Molly Jong-Fast took to X on Independence Day to share a less-than flattering editorial on the Trump family from a publication that typically sings their praises. "When you've lost the New York Post," Jong-Fast tweeted. The editorial in question chastises the president, with the Post's characteristic tabloid style, over reports that Trump's son Don Jr. and Eric are involved in a billion-dollar mining deal in Kazakhstan financed by the U.S. government."Hunter Biden-style sleaze is just as slimy when the Trump boys do it," wrote the Post editorial board. "It was bad when the Bidens did it, and it’s just as bad when the Trumps do it."Jong-Fast also shared a response from the thriller writer Brad Thor, who found himself on Independence Day in agreement with the New York Post."This should not be a partisan issue," Thor wrote. "If Americans were right to be angry about Hunter Biden trading on his father’s name, then Americans should be just as concerned when the Trump family is tied to deals involving foreign governments, federal support, and political access. Public service should never become a family revenue stream. One standard."Thor wasn't alone. "Never thought I see them say this but I agree!" wrote X user Emre Yurrtas. "The fact there are separate standards for each party on everything should bother everyone!"Jong-Fast was not the only one to urge Trump to change his ways. The Post editorial also had words of warning for the president. "Democrats in Congress are pressing for an investigation into Trump sweetheart deals," the Post said. "If they take the House in the midterms, these hearings are surely coming."

America at 250: Stewards, not owners, of freedom

America at 250 is more than a birthday. It is a ledger; a chain of blood, sweat, faith, courage, and generations of Americans choosing the harder right over the easier wrong. Most experiments in self-government fail. They collapse under the weight of corruption, division, debt, invasion, or the rot of people forgetting what freedom requires. […]
