“America Is Back!” President Trump’s Restoration of the American Dream Puts ALL Americans First

Press Release, Project 21

Washington, D.C. – As President Trump opened his 2025 Joint Address to Congress, he declared: “America is back!” Ambassadors with the Project 21 black leadership network agree, and note that the president is fulfilling long-held campaign promises that put ALL Americans first.

“President Trump boldly proclaimed that ‘America is back’ from the start of his speech and laid out a dynamic plan on how he plans to accomplish that,” said Project 21 Ambassador Kendall Qualls. “He gave examples of billions of dollars in corrupt and wasteful spending, and promised to protect women from male athletes. From the beginning of his speech, those on the political left behaved like juvenile disruptors – including Congressman Al Green, who was kicked out of session for his rude and disrespectful behavior. He and the rest of the Congressional Black Caucus are an embarrassment to this country, and to black Americans, due to both their behavior and how they have led their communities to the bottom rung of society.”

“Tomorrow marks only 45 days of Trump’s whirlwind presidency and already I’m in awe of the president and his unwavering resolve to keep his promises!” said Project 21 Ambassador Linda Lee Tarver, Ed.D., Th.D. “I was at a roundtable with President Trump in Detroit in 2024, where community members asked him about his vision for economic development, prison reform, social issues and more. President Trump returned to one talking point on which all of his other promises rely: the safety and security of the American people. He affirmed that there cannot be American prosperity without safety and security first. On day ONE, President Trump closed the borders, stopped the invasion and unleashed the power of the American government to fulfill its primary purpose: to protect our nation. #PromisesMadePromisesKept”

“America really could have used President Trump’s leadership during the last four years,” said Project 21 Chairman Horace Cooper. “There’s no comparing Donald Trump and Joe Biden. In a little more than a month President Trump has really turned our country around. He fights for America with innovative solutions, and tonight he once again showed that he will work tirelessly to make America a prosperous place, a place that makes the American Dream possible for all of its citizens.”

President Trump is on the path to restoring the American Dream for all Americans with his “Common Sense Revolution,” as he called it during his address. In just a month and a half, he has signed 81 executive orders, secured more than $2 trillion in new private sector investments, deported thousands of criminal illegal aliens and secured the American borders once again.

Noting this once-in-a-generation opportunity, Project 21 ambassadors recommend that President Trump consider the 56 concrete recommendations contained in Project 21’s Blueprint for a Better Deal for Black America, recommendations that were ignored by the Biden Administration yet hold the potential to ensure that the American Dream is attainable by all.

“I was very proud to hear President Trump acknowledge the enormous strain that illegal immigration has put upon American society, as noted in Project 21’s publication ‘What Immigration Policy Means for Black America,’” said Terris Todd, Project 21’s director of coalitions and outreach. “The ‘America First’ president made it perfectly clear that it’s time for our nation to rise to its rightful place in the world by restoring order and making America’s interests a priority again.”

“The pride, honesty, integrity and transparency that this country was built upon is being restored!” said Project 21 Ambassador Rev. David Lowery, Jr. “No more men in women’s sports and in girls’ locker rooms. Criminal illegal aliens are being removed, and wasteful DEI programs are being eradicated. More waste, fraud and abuse has been rooted out in President Trump’s first six weeks than we’ve seen in the modern era. America is being restored with a commonsense attitude and a mindset that will Make America Great Again!”

The Liberty Beacon Project is now expanding at a near exponential rate, and for this we are grateful and excited! But we must also be practical. For 7 years we have not asked for any donations, and have built this project with our own funds as we grew. We are now experiencing ever increasing growing pains due to the large number of websites and projects we represent. So we have just installed donation buttons on our websites and ask that you consider this when you visit them. Nothing is too small. We thank you for all your support and your considerations … (TLB)
