“I think you’re starting to see more of that impact.”
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy told CNBC that President Donald Trump’s tariffs are starting to be reflected in the price of some items, as sellers weigh how to absorb the shock of the added costs.

Amazon CEO Jassy says Trump's tariffs have started to 'creep' into prices
Sellers tried to absorb the tariff shock by buying stock ahead of time, but much of that inventory has run out, forcing some businesses to raise prices.

I am not exaggerating when I say ICE functions as a terrorist organization in the Twin Cities. The goal seems to be to harass and frighten people (the ones who are lucky enough to not be abducted, at least) and it's deeply unsettling when you learn they're in your neighborhood.

🚨 Detained by ICE? You can film even if detained. 🎥
🛑 Ask: “Am I free to leave?” Stay calm. Don’t resist.
📱 They can’t legally grab/search your phone without a warrant. Say: “I do not consent.”
⚠️ If they take it anyway: Don’t resist. It’s illegal—but stay safe.

I keep seeing posts stating that ICE cannot enter your home or a private business without a judicial warrant. While that is legally correct, in reality ICE routinely violates the law by forcing their way in, often by smashing down doors, before violently assaulting people.

Trump is an idiot and a madman, we all knows that.
Yet somehow he got elected US President twice?
He will be gone soon enough, but the consequences will be with us for generations.
When he is gone though, remember the faces of those that enabled and did his dirty work.
They must be held accountable.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.
He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.
Notice the suppressors
