President-elect Donald Trump has reportedly selected Howard Lutnick to lead the Department of Commerce in his new administration. If the Senate confirms Lutnick, he will manage an agency tasked with expanding U.S. economic growth and strengthening domestic industries. The Financial Times reported that figures on Wall Street wanted to thwart Lutnick’s appointment to Treasury Secretary because of his support for some of Trump’s policies, like tariffs. As the Secretary of Commerce, Lutnick would “play a central role in implementing the president-elect’s proposed tariffs on U.S. imports,” the WSJ notes. The 63-year-old billionaire is Chairman and CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, a leading financial firm where he has worked ever since he graduated college in the 1980s. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ He has donated millions to each of Trump’s three presidential campaigns and is currently the co-chair of his transition team. Lutnick became a prominent voice in the business world following the 9/11 attacks after the majority of the company’s employees, including his brother, were killed. Following the attack, Lutnick oversaw the hiring of thousands of employees as he rebuilt the company. He holds an annual 9/11 fundraiser that raises money for charities around the world. Trump is now faced with picking who he wants to lead the Treasury Department, which plays the most significant role in the U.S. economy. The leading candidates that Trump is considering are believed to be hedge fund manager Scott Bessent, former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh, and Apollo Global Management CEO Marc Rowan. “I think Trump has a problem in that he wants two different things,” said former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers, a Democrat. “He wants somebody who will be deeply loyal, and he wants someone who will be deeply reassuring to markets. Since markets are fearful of the tariff agenda, it’s hard to square both things.”

President-elect Donald Trump‘s border czar, Tom Homan, warned state and local officials against obstructing federal agents who are working to deport illegal immigrants out of the United States. During a Tuesday interview on Fox News, host Lawrence Jones asked Homan how he would deal with mayors or local police chiefs under Democrat leadership who refuse to help or even get in the way of federal deportation efforts. WOAH! Tom Homan warns mayors and governors: “Review Title 8 U.S.C. § 1324 – It’s a felony to harbor illegal aliens. Don’t cross that line.” pic.twitter.com/XRKlGCjVE3 — Breaking911 (@Breaking911) November 19, 2024 “Well first of all, if they don’t want to help us, get the hell out of the way, we’re going to do it,” Homan said. “If I got to send twice the amount of resources to that city, that’s what we are going to do. If they give us access to the jail, that’ll mean less agents in their community,” Homan said. “For them pushing back and not letting us in the jail, it just means more agents are going to be in the community, so they’re hurting themselves.” RELATED: Trump Confirms Plan To Use Military Assets For Mass Deportation Homan suggested that these officials should familiarize themselves with federal statutes governing immigration. “Finally I will say this: They need to educate themselves. They need to review this: Title 8, United States Code § 1324 (III), read about that, and don’t cross that line, because it is a felony to harbor and conceal illegal aliens from ICE. Read the statute. Don’t cross that line.” Homan, who previously served as acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), said he would be receptive to cooperating with law enforcement agencies that “want to help” with cracking down on the border crisis through Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. “Since I have been announced, Lawrence, I have gotten thousands of soldiers that just recently left the military, they want to join forces,” he added. “Police officers that retired want to join forces, retired Border Patrol agents, retired ICE agents that want to come back. Retirements from Border Patrol, that paperwork is pulled back. There’s a lot of excitement to do this job for the president of the United States.” MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ Homan also said there would be “three rails of business” when he takes over securing the nation’s borders in the second Trump administration. “First of all, we have to secure the border. We know how to do that, we’ve done it before,” Homan said. “Second of all, we need to run [Trump’s] deportation operations,” he continued. “The president has been clear, out of the gate we are going to focus on public safety threats and national security threats first, and fugitives, those who crossed the border illegally, had great due process at great taxpayer expense, were ordered removed by immigration judge and didn’t leave. They are also a priority.” Homan added: “And third rail, we have to find over 300,000 children that were released into this country to so-called sponsors that the government can’t find. We also have to find the children and try to save them.”

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia is one of the top offenders in the United States when it comes to irreversible sex change procedures for children, according to a digital campaign launching Tuesday. The hospital, known as “CHOP,” boasts that it is the first United States hospital devoted exclusively to the care of children. It has programs devoted to helping children explore and attempt to change their gender — and according to the advocacy group Do No Harm, the hospital is “leading the nation” in offering “life-altering sex related interventions for minors.” Do No Harm is targeting CHOP with a new digital campaign that will make Philadelphia parents aware of the hospital’s devotion to gender ideology. The campaign also includes a video that discusses how much money CHOP has made from child transgender interventions and urges the hospital itself to “stop the harm.” “Our campaign shines a light on CHOP and Admiral Levine’s collusion that helped shape Pennsylvania into one of the nation’s most prolific promoters of sex change treatments for children,” Dr. Stanley Goldfarb, the chairman of Do No Harm, told The Daily Wire. “By embracing experimental and irreversible sex changes for minors, CHOP has violated its primary duty to do no harm and to provide the highest medical care.” “We hope to provide patients and families with the resources they need to learn the truth about CHOP’s politicization of medicine enabled by powerful ideologues like Admiral Levine and former Governor Tom Wolf,” he added. The video notes that in 2008, CHOP started a progressive health policy think tank that ultimately became the CHOP Gender Clinic, and in 2015, former Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf appointed a man who identifies as a woman, now Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary Rachel Levine, as the general physician for Pennsylvania. “Together, Wolf and Levine engaged activists across the state, empowering CHOP to continue its self-proclaimed gender care for minors, even visiting schools for weekly referrals,” the video warns. “The reality? Children were prescribed puberty blockers and underwent sex change surgeries. CHOP’s actions have since altered hundreds of children’s and family lives forever.” It continues: “CHOP went so far as to train their staff to hide information about children’s perceived gender identity and coerce parents into supporting these irreversible sex changes while Levine was successful in securing millions in taxpayer dollars to cover the costs.” According to Do No Harm’s data, CHOP has written 768 prescriptions for children “undergoing sex-related interventions,” administered hormones and puberty blockers to 117 patients,  and performed sex-change surgeries on five minors, forever altering these children’s bodies and lives. The hospital has submitted $230,784 in total submitted charges. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ CHOP is not the only hospital in Pennsylvania that is focused on these types of interventions for children. Do No Harm’s database notes that Penn State Children’s Hospital has had 10 minor sex change surgery patients, and the UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh has had four. Throughout the state, many more patients are accessing so-called “gender-affirming care.” According to Do No Harm, the state has had 814 total sex change patients, and over $5 million in total submitted charges. CHOP did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
