The Trump Administration Is Cracking Down On Arizona

For the past few years, Arizona has been a decisive state on the political stage. Not just a major swing state in elections, many national policies start right here in the Grand Canyon State.

Arizona's been the focus of national attention for the past few months, so some of the White House's top officials stopped by to give their thoughts on the state's progress and future.

Making Arizona Healthy Again

The first to talk with the state of Arizona was Robert F. Kennedy, the Secretary of Health and Human Services. He's been pushing his "Make America Healthy Again"  plan, which aims to fix the glaring problems in the American food industry.

At his presser, Kennedy discussed a bill banning "ultraprocessed" foods in schools and a plan to cut back SNAP benefits. These both will be heading to Governor Hobbs' desk for final approval, but given the unanimous support of both parties, these seem to be a surefire shot.

Border Czar Returns

The other guest was Tom Homan, the Trump Administration's Border Czar. Homan came out swinging. He touted his 94% drop in illegal crossings, a massive jump from February 2024-25. He says he's not satisfied though, and wants to begin the largest deportation campaign in American history.

"If you're in the country illegally, you should be looking over your shoulder ... It's a crime". That's what Homan stated while discussing their plans to stop illegal migrations for good. He also announced the classification of drug cartels as terrorist organizations, planning to "wipe them off the face of the earth in the next couple years."
