Trump’s 2018 tariffs slapped a 25% tax on steel and 10% on aluminum. Economists found they raised prices, hurt U.S. manufacturers, and killed more jobs than they created. Consumers ended up footing the bill. Now he wants to raise them to 50%. Because if it failed at 25%, why not

Plantir, owned by Peter Thiel, is collecting sensitive personal and financial data on American citizens to create detailed profiles for the government. Thiel once wrote "freedom and democracy may not be compatible," and "capitalism and authoritarianism" are. Do you get it yet?

The most important rocket scientist in the Apollo program, the head of NASA's Launch Operations Center, and the guy who invented the moon rover were all immigrants.

HHS has acknowledged they messed up the citations with the MAHA Report, using studies that don't exist to support its conclusions. They've added new citations...that make more mistakes and don't support the report's conclusions. https://t.co/MLWmQFgrOt

This ketamine, ecstasy and mushroom-using government contractor, the richest person in the world, sacked thousands of excellent government workers, caused the deaths of thousands of poor children in foreign lands, stole Americans’ data and destroyed government services but he did

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. called the lack of healthy food options on Native reservations a “genocide.” Now the Trump administration has ended a program intended to fix the problem. https://t.co/VlZuAe3B03

i love everyone, but it appears that sometimes you have to explain things in child terms. j crew had to raise prices bc of tariffs (confirmed to me by j crew). the $79 price is a promo price; $118 is the retail price. if you want to compare sale prices, april is still lower

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Trump’s pardons of Republicans convicted of tax crimes seem in keeping with his favoring of the wealthy, Trump’s commutation of the sentence of a gang kingpin seems an odd counterpoint to his administration’s stance on undoc'd immigrants: @HC_Richardson

Economist @RobertReich: Americans making $17k- $51k will lose $700 a year; Americans w/incomes of less than $17k will lose more than $1k a year. But if you are among the top 0.1% of earners, you’re in luck: you’ll gain nearly $390k/yr says @HC_Richardson

BREAKING: Pearl Jam lead singer Eddie Vedder broke out an acoustic rendition of Bruce Springsteen's "My City of Ruins" at their show last night to support Springsteen in his fight against Donald Trump. This is awesome. America is waking up.

GOP insists spending is out of control but does not reflect reality: discretionary spending has fallen more than 40% in the past 50 years. What's driven rising deficits? Bush and Trump tax cuts added $8 trillion + $1.7 trillion to debt says @HC_Richardson

Instead of saving $, GOP Big Beautiful Bill blows the budget deficit wide open by extending 2017 tax cuts for the wealthy and corps. CBO thinks extensions wd cost $4.6 TRILLION over ten years. Cuts to Medicaid will hit in 2029, reports @HC_Richardson.
