Lutnick sat for an interview at the Breitbart News policy event in Washington, DC, as the Labor Department revealed the U.S. economy added 130,000 jobs in January, more than twice as many as expected, with the unemployment rate falling to 4.3 percent. Breitbart News Economics Editor John Carney reported: The jobs growth came entirely from the private sector, which added 172,000 jobs. The federal government’s payrolls contracted by 34,000 while state and local government employment shrank by 8,000. Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow joked that Breitbart’s favorite part of the economic data is that federal payrolls have dropped drastically. Lutnick compared America’s rocketing economy to the dismal economic growth of the United Kingdom and the European Union, which both experienced less than one percent growth. He added that Japan’s economy is shrinking. Facing a massive budget deficit caused by their own reckless spending, California lawmakers are pushing a lunatic “wealth tax” that would confiscate 5% of the net worth of the state’s wealthiest residents. This isn’t a tax on income, it’s a tax on existence. It is pure socialism, and even the Silicon Valley elites who usually bankroll the Democrat party are waking up to the reality of the monster they helped create. Zuckerberg joins a massive caravan of wealth fleeing the sinking ship. Jeff Bezos already left. Elon Musk got out years ago. Now, with a potential $10 billion tax bill looming over his head if he stays in Palo Alto, Zuckerberg is taking his money to a state that actually respects property rights. Zuckerberg’s move comes on the heels of other notable, longtime California-based billionaires who have solidified residency in South Florida in response to a proposed California wealth tax. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/02/mark-zuckerberg-ditches-california-florida-as-lefts-tax/ Since 2004, the Social Security Administration has provided a simple process to help States with verifying voter applications. It’s called the HAVV System. States send in the name, DOB, and last four digits of the voter’s SSN. The SSA then notifies the State if that person is deceased, alive, matches SSA records, or No Match Found! A whopping 13% of all HAVV verifications processed in 2025 came back as NO MATCH. That’s 318,217 of the 2.37 million submitted. Since 2011, an astounding 28.8% of all HAVV submissions have come back as NO MATCH. For the past 15 years, the federal government (SSA) has been unable to match 28.1 million voter submissions from States, to the information in its comprehensive computer systems. The Feds have every right to know what garbage is being processed at the State level for our Federal elections. This amount of “Non Matches” is why passing the SAVE Act, which requires voter ID, is simply imperative. These alarming percentages most certainly are justification for the DOJ to have access to any State’s voter rolls, including the voter’s full SSN. Yet, activist Judges in MI, OR, and CA tossed out the DOJ cases for voter rolls. The HAVV program was created to process new voters who can’t provide a valid Driver’s License during registration. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/02/28-voter-verifications-have-no-match-social-security/ The “delusion” of globalism and the decision to allow mass migration into the West threaten the future of Europe and its peoples, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio told attendees at the Munich Security Conference in Germany on Saturday. Representing the Trump administration at the annual international meeting in the Hotel Bayerischer Hof in Munich, Secretary of State Rubio stressed that the United States and Europe must remain strong allies, but warned against the arrogant follies that emerged following the end of the Cold War, such as the devotion to free trade, green-inspired de-industrialisation, and the ethos of open borders. Rubio rejected the idea that mass migration is a “fringe concern of little consequence”; rather, he said that it represents a “crisis which is transforming and destabilising societies all across the West.” “We want Europe to be strong. We believe that Europe must survive. Because the two great wars of the last century serve for us as history’s constant reminder that ultimately our destiny is, and will always be, intertwined with yours. Because we know that the fate of Europe will never be irrelevant to our own.” “And this is why we do not want allies to rationalise the broken status quo, rather than reckon with what is necessary to fix it. For we in America have no interest in being polite and orderly caretakers of the West’s managed decline. We do not seek to separate, but to revitalise an old friendship and renew the greatest civilisation in human history.” Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana recently passed a bill that ends the practice of sending government payments to dead people. As he explained during an appearance on NewsNation, even though the payment recipients are dead, someone is cashing the checks, which means it’s fraud. He says that it took four years to pass the bill because he faced opposition from certain people and groups. He also says that the bill will save the country billions upon billions of dollars. Partial transcript via Overton News: “When you die Katie, not that you’re going to die anytime soon, but when you die, your name goes to the Social Security department, they have a list dead people.” “And but they wouldn’t share it with anybody else. They wouldn’t share it with the Department of Treasury for example.” “So I had to go pass a bill. Took four years to pass the bill, believe it or not I had opposition. But we finally got it passed and the president signed it yesterday.”
