Someone benefited, again the middle class are the chumps. Can you figure out a way to show the consumer the actual price of the tariffs on our receipts so we know if the prices will actually go down when the 90 day tariff is over?
"Killing human beings is not a video game. It's not pixels on a screen. And whatever you think of the war... the way this is being described is almost barbaric," David Brooks says. "It should be unnerving to everybody to see this level of triviality." https://to.pbs.org/4dlsz7l
I wish he would run for President!
He really lowers the boom with those stinging one liners! So TRUE!
Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

I asked President Trump about the FBI reportedly seizing election records in Arizona. He said they must have done that because it was a “rigged” election. I pointed out to him that his own AG said there was not measurable voter fraud to overturn that election. Then he called me a rotten reporter.
I just asked President Trump about whether he is considering declaring a national emergency around the elections and the proposed executive order about this - he said no, he’s never heard about it.
He’s such a dick.
💯
Well I’m disappointed too, weak and slow, we need concise and super intelligent leadership.
Get ready for the retaliation! We will realize what his administration has done, we will be victimized, and he doesn’t care. Sloppy idiots!
Makes you want to move 🙁
