  July 21, 2026 If you or someone in your family collects Old Age Security, the deposit landing later this month is larger than the last one. Here's exactly why, and what the new numbers look like. Old Age Security payments went up 1.2% for the July-to-September 2026 quarter — the largest of the four scheduled increases so far this year. Combined with earlier adjustments, that puts OAS 2.3% higher than it was in July 2025. OAS amounts are reviewed every January, April, July, and October to track the Consumer Price Index.

Trump Declares 'Golden Age' for America in Inaugural Address

 

In a historic return to the White House, President Donald Trump declared the beginning of a "Golden Age" for the United States during his inaugural address on January 20, 2025. Speaking from the Capitol Rotunda, Trump outlined an ambitious agenda aimed at reversing what he described as the "horrible betrayal" of the previous administration.

Trump's speech was marked by a series of bold promises, including a commitment to end inflation, restore law and order, and reclaim American dominance on the global stage. He also announced the dismissal of several senior officials appointed by his predecessor, Joe Biden, and hinted at further removals to come.

The president's address was a mix of optimism and critique, as he painted a picture of a nation in decline but poised for a resurgence under his leadership. "From this moment on, America’s decline is over," Trump declared, emphasizing his intent to put America first and restore the country's prosperity and respect worldwide.

Trump's return to the presidency has been met with both support and controversy, as he continues to polarize the political landscape. However, his supporters remain hopeful that his promises will lead to a new era of national success.
