On Friday’s Mark Levin Show, WJNO’s Brian Mudd fills in for Mark. This was a great week for President Donald Trump’s policy initiatives! He began the week with his first significant policy achievement – Panama reversed its deal with China. Trump’s second and third policy successes came from Canada and Mexico, both of which capitulated to his demands on border issues, recognizing their greater dependence on U.S. trade. Trump also signed executive orders to withdraw funding from three U.N. organizations and established a sovereign wealth fund, all accomplished by Monday. This administration’s pace is unprecedented. Also, an activist Federal judge blocked Trump’s attempt to fire USAID workers. If the President of the United States cannot manage his own staff, it indicates a significant issue. The entrenched bureaucracy seems determined to protect its interests. Later, Trump revoked Biden’s security clearance and access to daily intelligence briefings. Is Biden still receiving daily intelligence briefings? He might be sleeping through them. Finally, all roads lead back to education. Trump’s teasing about getting rid of the Department of Education is very stimulating.  We had a great education system, and we let it go to crap.
