Trump's tariffs have cost the US nearly $30 trillion, this translates to an additional $300,000 per family of four.
That’s more damage than any economic policy pursued by any president in US history. He's bankrupting the country in real time.

Support this wholeheartedly. If no press shows up, Trump has no media coverage, his favorite lifeline.
Where is the solidarity with AP?
Journalists claim to defend the freedom of the press. Yet they’re piss poor at supporting their own.
This is a test case against authoritarianism.
Every member of the White House press corps should boycott WH events in support of AP.
Then watch Trump back down

I bet farmers are just LOVING their votes now.
US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more.
- US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID
- $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes.
- Food stranded in Houston
- Aid stopped in transit.
The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.
