John:
Hello from Capitol Hill.
While Congress has entered a slow two week recess for Easter, work continues at Capitol Hill and 1600 Pennsylvania to advance President Trump’s agenda. Last week, Congress managed to approve the framework for the legislative vehicle enacting Trump’s budget. The chambers began last week pretty far apart - about $1 trillion and (reportedly) scores of votes away from passage. By the end of the week, the Senate completed an overnight vote-a-rama and the House passed the resolution 218-216 - a dramatic turnaround from mid-week. Speaker Johnson’s ambitious schedule ended up panning out. With lawmakers back in-district, committees are in the midst of preparing to mark up the resolution at the end of April. This process will flesh out the actual policies of the budget (as opposed to the general numbers that were determined last week). Both Senate Majority Leader Thune and Speaker Johnson have agreed on Memorial Day as the completion date for the budget.
El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele visited the White House this week, coinciding with the mainstream media’s intense focus on El Salvadoran illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported to his home country as part of the administration’s larger immigration law enforcement efforts. Abrego Garcia’s wife immediately sued immigration authorities, claiming that he was illegally deported and imprisoned in El Salvador. However, the administration has consistently argued that Abrego Garcia’s alleged narcoterrorist affiliations justified the deportation. This developing case has become a focal point for the Trump administration’s immigration policies, with Senator Van Hollen trying to visit Abrego Garcia in prison in El Salvador. Conversely, consider the Vice President’s frank statement ([link removed]) : “they [those in opposition to the Trump administration’s actions] want to accomplish through fake legal process what they failed to accomplish
politically: the ratification of Biden's illegal migrant invasion.”
The Trump administration continues it’s efforts at combating antisemitism, DEI, and radical leftist bias in higher education, this week freezing over $2 billion in funding to Harvard University and threatening to revoke the university’s tax exempt status.Latest From Around the Conservative Movement Harvard is among the first of the several institutions that have come under fire from the Trump administration to resist. Columbia University, which just weeks ago capitulated to the administration’s demands, issued a statement of renewed defiance this week.
