Jeremy Carl sat down for an interview, linked below, with Ross Douthat, where Carl outlined that White citizens are on pace to become "second-class citizens" in America, remarking that there is an epidemic of White hate, with Whites facing more discrimination than Blacks in America. Carl was nominated for Assistant. Secretary of State for International Organization Affairs by Trump, before his nomination was derailed due to discussions of race. Carl was adamant that civil rights law had disenfranchised Whites and that the last few decades had been used to apply the law in a one-sided manner. Carl was arguably the most pro-White advocate nominated by Trump, only to be stonewalled by the GOP establishment, much to the dismay of many MAGA supporters and disaffected Trump voters.

President Trump boosted an article by Gavin Wax on Truth Social. Last year, AF Post exposed text messages showing that Gavin Wax leaked his fellow Young Republicans’ Telegram group chat information to a left-wing Politico journalist. The story escalated into a national scandal, while the Young Republicans mentioned were doxxed and subjected to harassment. As the Chief of Staff to the Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, Wax faced no repercussions from the Trump administration for his actions. Follow: @AFpost

President Trump has ordered officials to focus on arresting “bad guys,” while reducing high-profile operations in major cities like Minnesota and Chicago. Consequently, daily arrests have fallen from 1,500 to 1,200. The change is being overseen by Tom Homan, who wants to pivot from blanket arrests to “bread-and-butter arrests” concerning “criminals.” Susie Wiles, who is concerned that “mass deportations” carries a negative connotation with midterm voters, advised the change of policy.

JD Vance, often described as a frontrunner for the 2028 Republican primary, is reportedly reconsidering a presidential run, citing family considerations ahead of the birth of his fourth child. However, some Republicans point to less personal factors, including uneven early polling and growing donor interest in alternatives such as Marco Rubio. Strategists warn that entering a competitive primary, especially if followed by a general election loss, could damage Vance’s standing within the party and weaken his claim to future leadership.
