“Caroline, you’re doing a great job… it’s dazzling to watch.” That’s high praise from Sean Hannity, and it sets the stage for a discussion about the Trump administration’s recent achievements. Karoline Leavitt, White House Press Secretary, recently appeared on “Hannity” to highlight what she sees as a series of wins for the administration. So, what exactly are these wins, and why is the White House so eager to share them? Let’s dive in.

The “Rockstar” Cabinet and Transparency
Leavitt emphasized the transparency and accessibility of President Trump, especially when compared to the previous administration. She proudly recalled a recent cabinet meeting where Trump invited the press and instructed each cabinet secretary to provide an honest update on their agency’s work. According to Leavitt, every cabinet secretary is a “rock star,” passionate about their issues, and delivering on Trump’s promises.
Leavitt believes that the media is struggling to keep up with the constant stream of good news coming from the administration. She suggested that the press is grasping at straws, making it easy to engage with them daily because President Trump is fulfilling his promises to the American people.
Economic Wins and Trade Deals
Leavitt pointed to several key economic indicators as evidence of the administration’s success.
- Inflation is dropping: Lower inflation means that the cost of goods and services is increasing at a slower rate, easing the burden on consumers.
- Jobs are up: A growing job market indicates a healthy economy and more opportunities for Americans.
- The border is the most secure it has ever been: Leavitt claims unprecedented low numbers of illegal crossings have secured the border. (It will be important to verify this statement with official government data on border security.)
She specifically mentioned the CPI report and a record jobs report that exceeded expectations. Plus, the federal deficit in March tumbled to a five-year low.
Another significant accomplishment, according to Leavitt, is the administration’s success in bringing Americans home from detention abroad. “Trump has freed more than half of Americans from around the world have brought more than half of the number that Joe Biden brought home in four years, Donald Trump has done it in 80 days.”
Trump’s approach to trade is also a key focus. Leavitt explained his strategy of using tariffs to encourage fair trade deals, noting that over 75 countries have reached out, and more than 15 offers are on the table. The president is supposedly using the full leverage of the United States – economically, militarily, and in terms of national security – to secure these deals.
“America First” and Reordering the Global System
A reporter from CNN asked Leavitt whether the “whole world is on notice” because of President Trump’s actions. Leavitt affirmed that this is precisely the point. The United States, she stated, will no longer be taken advantage of. The “America First” policy means prioritizing the country, its people, and its needs.
Hannity chimed in, stating that for 50 or 60 years, the American people have been “ripped off,” hurting domestic manufacturing. He contrasted Trump’s “out of the box” thinking with that of “institutionalists and establishment people.” Hannity described Trump as a “disruptor” and “iconoclast” who is resetting the global order, a change the world “better get used to fast.”
Leavitt argues this new economic agenda will benefit American workers, small business owners, and CEOs. She mentioned that tax cuts and deregulation are on the horizon, with the House already passing the framework for the budget reconciliation process.
In Conclusion
Karoline Leavitt’s appearance on “Hannity” painted a picture of an administration racking up wins across various fronts. From a transparent and effective cabinet to positive economic indicators and a bold new approach to trade, the message was clear: the Trump administration is delivering on its promises and putting America first.
