Sound on…
If your day has been hard, if you’re feeling anxious or angry or lost, allow yourself to pause for a moment and come back to your breathing. The present moment is all we truly have. When we become so tied up in our thoughts, we miss our appointment with life. Rest well, my friends. 😊

You know what's definitely not part of the American Dream? All of us paying higher taxes on food and other necessities so billionaires like Secretary Bessent can get a bigger tax handout.
Bessent defends Trump tariffs: ‘Access to cheap goods’ is not the ‘American Dream’
“International economic relations that do not work for the American people must be reexamined,” he said at the Economic Club of New York.

For all the TRUMP = STRONG propaganda this is *exactly* what his “leadership” was like in Covid. Constant zigging and zagging, self-contradictory, incapable of commitment, wanting to have it both ways. It was a disaster!
This is what weak, flailing leadership looks like. His inability to make meaningful change in areas like this explains the desperate, authoritarian bluster of his largely illegal Executive Orders. This is the sort of leader who opposing politicians should definitely NOT cater to.
"The decision is a significant reversal by Trump, who on Tuesday had announced the largest tariff increase in a century only to back down 48 hours later as stocks were hammered and Republicans expressed concern about the economic consequences." Story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
