Under President Trump, electricity prices are surging — up 11%! — leaving millions behind on their utility bills, with past-due balances at an all-time high.

Trump, Musk, and the GOP killed hundreds of thousands of kids around the world.
That should be a major story and talking point.
They cut USAID to "save" from "waste," but gave 40 billion to Argentina and threw a Great Gatsby party and let Kash Patel burn our money for his honeypot GF.

Along with everything else, Trump admitting the shutdown led to a bloodbath for Republicans should at an absolute minimum lead Dem Senators to shelve their apparent plan to prematurely cave. He's admitting he and the GOP are in a weak position, Dems. Exploit that!
Trump to Republican senators: "I thought we'd have a discussion after the press leaves about what last night represented and what we should do about it and also about the shutdown and how that relates to last night. If you read the pollsters, the shutdown was a big factor, negative for Republicans."
