Manufacturing iPhones in the U.S. could increase prices by 90%, raising the price of an iPhone 16 Pro from $1,199 to approximately $2,278.
Apple won’t pay the cost of Trump’s threatened tariffs — consumers will be forced to.
That’s how tariffs work, no matter what Trump says.

Who benefits from an economic crisis? Trump does. He declares an economic emergency—then manufactures one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers. No wonder he was just out golfing—crisis pays.

My youngest rescue pup turned 11 yesterday and this sweet woman at the dog store insisted he needed his name on his pup cake. She leaves this week to see her daughter whom she hadn’t seen in six years and all I keep doing is obsessing she won’t be allowed back in to our country. 🥺
