Trump’s tariffs in two numbers:

$3800: How much more the average US family will spend this year because of tariffs.

They say it’s about protecting kids from “filth.”
But when I questioned the bill author, he admitted that it could ban classics like Romeo and Juliet, Catcher in the Rye, and Lonesome Dove.

Texas Republicans just passed a bill forcing every teacher to post the Ten Commandments in their classroom.
They passed it on the Sabbath… breaking the 4th Commandment.
Maybe they should try following the Ten Commandments before mandating them.

Reminder:
When companies pay less than a living wage and don’t offer healthcare, their workers are forced to rely on taxpayer-funded social safety nets like Medicaid and SNAP.
That’s not a handout to workers.
That’s a handout to the companies exploiting them.
