For months, the president has been trying to fill vacant jobs in his administration, only to watch Senate Democrats gleefully stonewall his nominees.

| As President Donald Trump seeks to bolster law enforcement in America's most crime-ridden cities, a shocking public transit murder caught on camera threatens to steer the conversation sideways. On August 22, a young Ukrainian refugee, Iryna Zarutska, was minding her own business on a Charlotte commuter train, when a hooded man, who happened to be black - a complete stranger with a history of mental illness and a long rap sheet - stole up behind her and stabbed her to death. The coldblooded killing kickstarted a conflagration of commentary about not only the solution to crime, but also its root causes. |
