While the previous occupant of the Oval Office was notorious for his "lid" calls before lunchtime and weekend getaways to Delaware, President Donald Trump is proving once again why America elected a workhorse, not a show horse.
The President's schedule for Monday, January 12th, reveals a leader fully engaged in the business of Making America Great Again – with back-to-back meetings spanning foreign policy, faith, and honoring our nation's heroes.
Morning: Eyes on the World
President Trump kicks off his week with a 10:30 AM meeting with Secretary of State Marco Rubio in the Oval Office. With global hotspots demanding American leadership and the administration's "America First" foreign policy reshaping international relations, this meeting signals the President's hands-on approach to diplomacy – a stark contrast to the chaos and weakness that defined the Biden years.
Afternoon: Faith and Values
At 1:30 PM, President Trump welcomes Archbishop Paul Coakley to the Oval Office. Archbishop Coakley, who leads the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City and has served as chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, represents the faith community that helped deliver Trump's decisive 2024 victory. This meeting underscores the administration's commitment to religious liberty and traditional values – priorities that were under constant assault during the previous regime.
Honoring Heroes: Tunnel to Towers
The President caps his afternoon with a 4:00 PM meeting with the CEO of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, the incredible organization that provides mortgage-free homes to Gold Star families, fallen first responder families, and catastrophically injured veterans.
Founded in honor of FDNY firefighter Stephen Siller, who gave his life on September 11, 2001, Tunnel to Towers represents everything good about American generosity and patriotism. President Trump's decision to host this meeting in the Oval Office speaks volumes about his administration's priorities.
The schedule also includes a "Signing Time" session at 3:30 PM – likely executive actions continuing the President's aggressive agenda to undo the damage of the Biden administration and restore American prosperity.
Patriots, this is what real presidential leadership looks like. No "basement campaign" mentality here – just a President working tirelessly for the American people, meeting after meeting, day after day.
What a difference an election makes.
