This was incredible!

In a moment that seemed to echo the national sentiment under President Donald Trump, the Kentucky Derby took on unexpected political weight Saturday—when a horse named Sovereignty surged past its top rival, Journalism, to win the race in dramatic fashion.

The underdog victory quickly went viral, triggering praise from top Trump officials who saw the result as a powerful metaphor for what’s happening across America in 2025.

A Stunning Upset—and a Symbolic One

Sovereignty lagged behind most of the race until it made a breathtaking move at the final turn, overtaking Journalism—the heavy favorite. On social media, the symbolism wasn’t lost on America First leaders.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a key figure in President Trump’s second-term cabinet, wrote:

“Sovereignty > Journalism. On the track. And in 2025 America.”

Stephen Miller, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, also weighed in:

“In the Trump Administration, sovereignty will ALWAYS win.”

Political commentator Logan Hall called it a “powerful omen” of the times. Many on the Right agreed, seeing it as a sign that Trump’s America First movement is back in full stride—leaving media narratives in the dust.


Mainstream Media Criticized Over Ignored Crimes, False Narratives

The Trump administration’s ongoing clashes with the media are nothing new—but they’ve intensified in recent months.

Pete Hegseth, who has played a central role in national defense and border operations, recently came under fire after a New York Times article accused him of sharing details of a March military strike against Iran-backed Houthis. The alleged leak happened in a secure chat with his family and legal advisor.

Hegseth fired back hard:

“This is another deep state attempt to sabotage the Trump agenda. Instead of focusing on fake controversies, the press should cover real victories—like how we’ve crushed the Houthis, stood up to Communist China, and built a new defense zone along our southern border.”


Stephen Miller Exposes Media Silence Over Brutal Migrant Crime

In a recent White House press briefing, Stephen Miller slammed mainstream outlets for refusing to report on escalating gang violence tied to open-border policies.

He condemned the press for burying the story of 12-year-old Jocelyn Nungaray, a young girl raped and murdered in Texas in 2024 by two illegal aliens linked to the Tren de Aragua cartel.

“Most of your outlets didn’t cover this horrific crime,” Miller said. “And when you did, it was only because President Trump forced you to acknowledge it. He had to shame you into doing your jobs.”

Miller also accused reporters of sympathizing with criminals, referencing their coverage of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an accused MS-13 member now deported by the Trump administration.


Why This Matters: Sovereignty Is Back in the Winner’s Circle

Whether on the racetrack or in real-life policy battles, one message came through loud and clear this weekend:
America is reclaiming its sovereignty. And under President Trump, that principle is no longer just a campaign slogan—it’s a reality.

As the media struggles to keep up with a shifting national mood, Americans are seeing firsthand what strong leadership, secure borders, and unapologetic patriotism look like. The symbolism of Sovereignty beating Journalism was no coincidence—it’s a reflection of the battle playing out across the country.
