Californians have paid more than $1,000 in Trump Taxes this year thanks to the President’s tariffs — making housing, groceries, and everyday goods more expensive.
And with inflation still driving up prices, the cost of living under Donald Trump could climb even higher in 2026.

To those thinking Russia is winning in Ukraine:
Imagine if when we invaded Iraq, we were almost four years into it, only occupied 20 percent, and lost a million men.
Not a soul would call that “winning.”

But as I told @elexmichaelson.bsky.social, Americans know what it's really about: regime change.
