White House Details Speech Focus
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Trump will highlight accomplishments from his first 11 months in office. She told reporters, “It’s going to be a really good speech.”
Leavitt emphasized, “He’s going to talk a lot about the accomplishments over the past 11 months. All that he’s done to bring our country back to greatness.” The address also previews plans to continue delivering for Americans over the next three years, prioritizing family values and economic strength.
Leavitt’s remarks underscore Trump’s rapid progress in undoing overspending, illegal immigration leniency, and woke agendas that plagued the prior administration. Conservatives see this as validation of their long fight against fiscal irresponsibility and border chaos.
Key Economic Victories Restored Prosperity
The U.S. economy added a net of 671,000 jobs since January 2025, beating expectations four months straight. Middle-class family incomes rose nearly $6,000, dwarfing prior gains. Unemployment hit 3.5%, the lowest in 50 years. America gained 7 million jobs, exceeding projections threefold.
The Dow topped 30,000, with S&P 500 and NASDAQ at record highs. These metrics reflect Trump’s rejection of lockdown failures and globalist trade deals.
Rural America received over $1.3 billion for high-speed broadband via the ReConnect Program. Opportunity Zones attracted $75 billion, creating 500,000 jobs in distressed areas.
Deregulation slashed eight rules for every new one, saving households $3,100 yearly and businesses $50 billion in compliance costs. Manufacturing added 400,000 jobs pre-COVID, with 95% of manufacturers optimistic—the highest ever.
Border Security and America First Policies
Trump’s executive orders closed the border, ended catch-and-release, reinstated Remain in Mexico, and halted asylum for illegal crossers. Over $40 billion in benefits now protected from illegal aliens via February’s Executive Order.
Eight Latin American cartels, including MS-13 and Sinaloa, designated terrorists. Billions secured for southern border wall funding. These steps counter years of open-border policies fueling crime and draining resources from citizens.
Health, Defense, and Global Leadership Wins
The Make America Healthy Again initiative saw 35% of the food industry commit to eliminating artificial dyes, including Hershey and 90% of ice cream makers. Overhauled FDA policies addressed autism and food safety.
Military recruitment goals met early across all branches. NATO raised defense spending to 5% of GDP. Iran’s nuclear program obliterated; ceasefires secured in multiple hotspots. AI investments topped $1 trillion, cementing U.S. dominance.
These achievements affirm Trump’s promises to protect children from mutilation, ban men from women’s sports, end K-12 indoctrination, unleash energy, and eliminate wasteful DEI programs. Families frustrated by past government overreach now witness real change safeguarding conservative values.
