Friendly reminder to all media this week: The GOP controls both houses of Congress. They can keep the government open with their own votes.
It’s their own fecklessness and chaos that REQUIRES Dems to vote for this budget.

Trump is now threatening to fire the Fed Chair he appointed—because Powell won’t cut rates fast enough to cover for Trump’s economic damage.
He wrecked the economy with tariffs. Now he’s looking for a scapegoat.
This isn’t monetary policy. It’s sabotage.

While Trump and his aides will try to vilify China in this trade war, make no mistake, Trump is 100% the cause. Removing Trump and MAGA from power is the only effective solution.

Wear a hat. Wear a mask. Wear sunglasses. Bring a burner phone or at the least, leave yours at home.
