The Issue: President Trump marking the first 100 days of his second term in office on April 30.
By withholding funding from collegiate indoctrination mills, dismantling diversity, equity and inclusion mandates, closing the border and codifying that there are only two sexes (among other accomplishments), the president has been firing on all cylinders during his first 100 days (“Tornadon,” April 30).
He’s keeping one of his main campaign pledges: to put a stake in the heart of woke.
With any luck, that stake will remain intact.

The Trump administration has just completed its first 100 days.
There have been needed accomplishments, but some decisions raise deep concerns.
Tariffs on most of our trading partners have disrupted the economy, which will have a severe impact on all of our spending and savings.
But on public safety, there is some good news, as we are currently deporting many violent criminal migrants.
There is much to accomplish in the next 100 days, and one thing I would suggest is to review the firings of dedicated federal employees.

All I can say is that I’m very happy with the first 100 days and look forward to the remaining days of Donald J. Trump’s presidency.
God bless our president, and God bless America.

I believe it’s time for Sen. Chuck Schumer to invest in a new pair of glasses after he said “it’s been 100 days of hell” under Trump.
This way he could actually see the full success of Trump’s first 100 days.
Such successes like closing the southern border, mass deportations of criminals, waste and fraud cut from the federal budgets and working to move manufacturing jobs back home where they belong.
This is not chaos, Chuck.
This is what success actually looks like.

Trump is on the path of Making America Great Again.
He has not stopped since the day he was inaugurated.
He’s moving fast and watching out for the American people, which he promised to do.
Though the tariffs made a big impact at first, they will work.
People must realize that things don’t happen overnight.
We must celebrate the many accomplishments that Trump has had during his first 100 days.
He’s doing an incredible job at the border after four years of disaster.

The Issue: Amazon dropping plans to display the cost of tariffs on its product listings.
It’s disappointing to see that Amazon considered taking a partisan approach to consumer disclosures when it comes to pricing impacts of tariffs and surcharges (“Amazon backs down from levy surcharge note,” April 30).
The e-commerce giant does not offer consumers transparency by providing filters for origin of products for consumers who chose to patronize American-made goods.
Apparently transparency only matters to Amazon when its bottom line is at risk.

President Trump pressured Amazon not to report the cost of tariffs on its products because it would reflect badly on his administration.
Why so few complaints from the media?
This is certainly news that Americans had a right to be aware of.
I recall that much was made of the Biden administration’s pressure on certain social media organizations during the COVID period to suppress news.
