Donald Trump says he wants interest rates to come down – but he is refusing to release the data the Fed needs to do that.
Seems like he wants to hide bad jobs data.
And working families will keep paying the price.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

A House panel is holding a hearing on a proposed ban on Congressional stock trading.
This ban is long overdue. Why should members of Congress be able to use privileged information to make money on the stock market, while they’re supposed to be working for you?

Last night’s lavish White House dinner showed us the global oligarchy coming together in plain sight.
By cozying up to MBS, Trump has signaled to the world that the United States is now on the side of authoritarianism, not democracy.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?
HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--
KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”
The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

Texas Banned Abortion. Then Sepsis Rates Soared.
ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Shapiro: I think another lesson from last night is that the American people have pretty good bullshit meters—and they know that Donald Trump’s bullshitting them. Look, I think you know two million Pennsylvanians don’t have access to SNAP right now, don’t have access to food right now.
