-Reuters
“U.S. President Donald Trump welcomed Australia’s prime minister on Friday for only the second state visit of his administration, [signaling] the close bond between the two allies,” Alexandra Alper and Steve Holland report. “Days before the visit, a sign draped across the Australian Embassy in Washington proclaimed ‘100 years of mateship’ between the two countries. On Friday, Trump feted Morrison’s arrival at the White House’s South Lawn with a 19-gun salute and U.S. Marine Band performances of each nation’s national anthems.”

Trump Touts Newly Constructed Border Wall Sections
-Fox News
“In an exclusive interview on ‘Fox & Friends’ Thursday, President Trump told Fox News' Ed Henry that ‘brand-new’ wall sections have been built along the U.S.-Mexico border, contrary to claims by some Democrats,” Edmund DeMarche writes. “Trump said the new wall sections include 14 miles at the site in California, where the interview was held. ‘This was not here two weeks ago. This is all brand-new wall. ... We're building on many different sites all up and down along the border,’ he said, adding that the new 30-foot barrier was impenetrable even by ‘championship mountain climbers.’”
 
 Something to share: Great progress being made on the wall!
Melania Trump Participates in Reopening of Washington Monument
-CNN
“First lady Melania Trump, alongside a group of local fourth graders, helped cut the ribbon to re-open the Washington Monument, which had been under construction in the wake of a 2011 earthquake,” Kate Bennet reports. “When it first opened to the public in 1888, it used to take more than 10 minutes to reach the top of the 500-foot Washington Monument, by steam-propelled elevator. Today, it's automated, and the ride in a posh new lift with video screens is just 70 seconds. That's just one of the upgrades Trump helped celebrate Thursday morning as she served as special guest to officially reopen the iconic structure after more than two years of closure for much-needed renovations.”
 
 After three years of renovations, the Washington Monument is open!
California Can’t Go Its Own Way
-The Wall Street Journal
“If you haven’t heard, President Trump has declared war on California, the auto industry and the world’s climate. Or that’s what liberals are saying about his Administration’s plans to revoke California’s waiver that lets it set national fuel economy rules that raise costs for consumers across the country,” The Wall Street Journal editorial board writes. “The Trump Administration isn’t prohibiting [automakers] from manufacturing more fuel-efficient and electric cars. Liberals call the President a totalitarian, but he’s the one giving consumers and businesses a choice.”
The NYT Kavanaugh Smear Shows Why the Press is the Least-Trusted Institution in America
-The Washington Post
“A Columbia Journalism Review poll released this year found that half of all Americans have ‘hardly any confidence at all’ in the media, which beat out even Congress as the institution for which the public has the lowest confidence,” Marc Thiessen writes. “It’s not hard to see why.” Last weekend, The New York Times published a story claiming a “previously unreported” sexual assault allegation against Justice Brett Kavanaugh. “One small problem … the female student in question ‘refused to discuss the incident’ and that ‘several of her friends said she does not recall it.’” The Times conveniently left that part out of its initial story, later adding a “clarification.”
This Constitution Week, America Welcomes 34,000 New Legal Citizens
-Fox News
For Constitution Week, “we recognize the signing of the U.S. Constitution and reflect upon the meaning and importance of citizenship and what it means to be an American, whether native or foreign-born,” writes Ken Cuccinelli, Acting Director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Across the country this week, USCIS welcomed over 34,000 new citizens at more than 300 special naturalization ceremonies in celebration of Constitution Week. “We believe that U.S. citizenship is the greatest honor and privilege in the world,” he said.
