In contrast, Ashley Akers and Maria Cardona maintained that the DOJ must remain free from political influence, serving the American people rather than the president. This sparked a debate over the independence of the DOJ and the implications of presidential authority over investigations.

The Imaginative Conservative: The Forgotten American System
The "American System," championed by figures like Henry Clay and Abraham Lincoln, emphasizes protective tariffs, a national bank, and infrastructure improvements as keys to American industrial independence and prosperity. This policy contrasts with free trade, which is seen as detrimental to domestic manufacturing.
Historically, the American System contributed to significant economic growth during the Gilded Age, with rising wages and falling prices. Advocates argue that a return to these principles could restore traditional values and enhance prosperity in modern America.
Forbes: Here’s Why Egg Prices Are So High—And May Get Worse As Bird Flu Persists
Egg prices in the U.S. are projected to rise over 20% this year, driven by ongoing outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) that have led to significant poultry supply reductions. The average cost of a dozen Grade A large eggs has surged from $2.52 at the start of 2024 to $4.15 in December.
Retailers are responding to the rising demand and limited supply by imposing purchase limits on egg cartons. Despite the escalating prices of eggs, the cost of chicken remains relatively stable. The situation is compounded by political discussions surrounding inflation and food prices as the presidential election approaches.
