First number: Zero.

That’s the number of illegal migrants released into the country in the past two months. And it’s not because Trump’s wall has been completed, but because the president, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and border czar Tom Homan put down the hammer in warning anyone thinking of entering the country not to do so or risk being arrested and deported.

Second number: 250,000

For context, that’s the number of migrants who crossed into the country under former President Joe Biden in December 2023. Overall, according to Customs and Border Protection, 10.8 million migrants were encountered entering the country illegally under the Biden-Harris administration, with millions more “gotaways” entering and not being encountered.

Third number: Zero

That’s the number of murders that occurred in the last 10 days in Washington, D.C., all thanks to Trump’s decision to employ National Guard troops in the district.

Democrats and many of their friends in the media, of course, reflexively opposed this decision. And once again, they’re on the wrong side of the issue.

Fourth number: 91%

That’s the number of D.C. residents who say crime is a serious problem, according to a recent Washington Post poll. Yet here’s what Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said about Trump’s order:

“I walk around all the time. I wake up early in the morning sometimes and take a nice walk as the sun is rising around some of the Capitol and the other monuments and things. And I feel perfectly safe,” claimed Schumer, all while failing to mention he has a security detail around him at all times for these early morning strolls.

On cue, the Washington Post attempted to push the narrative that everything is A-OK in D.C. when it comes to crime before stepping on a large rake.

“This is a safe city, but overhearing and witnessing gang threats and then watching the camera footage of the thuggery is disturbing,” said one resident quoted in a Washington Post story. But besides contradicting themselves in the same sentence, this same source hilariously would not provide their name out of concerns for their own safety.

Fifth and sixth numbers: 2.1 million and 2.4 million

The first number is the number of Democratic voters the party has lost from 2020 to 2024, according to voter registration numbers. As for 2.4 million, that’s the number of voters the Republican Party has gained in the same period.

And that raises the question: Why is this happening? As we learned during the 2024 election, Trump has been able to co-opt core Democratic voters in the form of the Teamsters, the largest union in the country with more than 1.3 million members, which refused to endorse former Vice President Kamala Harris after endorsing previous Democrats, including Biden, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and former President Barack Obama.

The decision came after the 122-year-old organization released internal polling showing rank-and-file members supporting Biden over Trump by 8 points days before his own party forced him to drop out of the race.

But when the matchup became Trump vs. Harris, the same internal polling showed a seismic shift, with Trump topping Kamala by a 27-point margin, 58% to 31%. If Trump were winning the Teamsters by that margin, it’s easy to deduce that the United Auto Workers also supported Trump over Harris due to her advocacy of electric vehicle mandates. It’s also easy to see restaurant workers’ unions going to Trump for first proposing no tax on tips before Harris lamely copied the idea.

Trump also captured the highest percentage of the black vote in more than 50 years — 20%, up from 8% in 2016 — and 47% of the Latino vote, a huge improvement over his 2016 performance of just 28%. If Democrats expect to win any national elections again, they cannot do so without dramatically improving their numbers among these key groups.

Seventh number: 19%

Democrats in Congress are currently polling at 19% approval, according to a recent survey by Quinnipiac.

One reason: They’re trying to out-Trump Trump on social media. Exhibit A is California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D).

“A MESSAGE TO TRUMP,” wrote his press office on X recently. “Stop peddling the same lies you used in Los Angeles to infect other cities and states with your authoritarian regime. Stop using our honored military as pawns in your twisted game. Stop the theatrics and the attacks on our citizens.”

In other words, Newsom is against additional resources being deployed in D.C. and would rather have America function more like California, which ranks in the top 10 of the “most dangerous states to live in” category, according to U.S. News & World Report.

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who has the maturity of a drunk sophomore on social media, disagrees.

“Gavin Newsom has achieved the impossible — he has united a very divided America. THEREFORE, when we return to Washington, D.C. in September I will be NOMINATING him for the NOBEL PEACE PRIZE,” the congressman wrote on Saturday.

We’re truly governed by children.

Eighth number: $515 million

That’s the amount of money Trump won’t have to pay the state of New York after a state appeals court ruled the fine violated the Constitution’s ban on excessive fines. This was a huge blow to New York Attorney General Letitia James, who literally ran for her position on taking down Trump without naming what crime she believed had been committed.

James herself is now under federal investigation for mortgage fraud after allegedly lying on loan applications to secure better loans, even going so far as to say she was married to her father and misrepresenting her residence.

Ninth number: 1.4 million

That’s the number of immigrants who have entered the country in the first six months of 2025, marking the lowest number in 55 years.

Tenth number: 45,631.74

That’s what the Dow Jones closed at on Friday after jumping more than 800 points following Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s seemingly signaling his willingness to (finally) lower interest rates in the near future. The S&P and Nasdaq also closed at record highs.

Trump has had an active eight months.

The border is secure.

Lawfare against him has miserably failed.

The economy and the markets are absolutely on fire.

Trump is winning the tariff war (Canada dropped retaliatory tariffs this week).

Washington, D.C., is far safer.

Trump has gotten Putin and Zelensky to agree to a trilateral meeting.

Democrats are polling at record lows, dropping into the teens.

Insider Advantage, the most accurate poll of the 2024 election, has Trump’s approval at 54%.

The blue team has no leader, unless Newsom’s snark tweets are your thing.

We may have just witnessed Trump’s best week yet.

And the crazy thing is, there’s still more than 73 weeks left in his second term.
