Buttigieg: Like I love A1 steak sauce, but A1 steak sauce is not one of the most important things confronting humanity right now. Artificial intelligence is. And somebody who doesn't understand that probably should not be leading an important federal agency.

TOMORROW: The Senate is expected to vote on a crypto bill that would enable Trump to keep accepting bribes from billionaires, corporations, and foreign governments. We can block S.394 if every Democrat votes no but that’s not a sure thing right now, so your senators need to hear from you. 👇

So if he doesn’t believe in democracy, why does he want to be in government? Oh yeah- it’s called domestic terrorism. Not violent, maybe, but still terrorism. And isn’t that a crime?

Sen. Tim Kaine is absolutely right—Trump’s trade war is a chaotic mess.
One day it’s tariffs, the next it’s a pause, then back to tariffs again.
This whiplash doesn’t help American businesses or families—it hurts them. It’s not strategy, it’s ego. And it’s devastating for people across America.

You can't talk about Trump's first 100 days without talking about his tariff policies, which have created an ideal environment for members of his inner circle to profit from insider information while costs rise for working families.
