WELKER: If tariffs help consumers, why is the administration rolling them back?
BESSENT: You know how much you weigh. You get on the scale every morning. Inflation is a composite number and we look at everything. We try to push down the things we can control.

How about, until all of the American people get a pension, members of Congress don't? Maybe then we'd get something useful out of them

Really makes you wonder if Trump is indeed a Russian asset. Why else would the U.S. (Trump) throw Ukraine and our European allies under the bus??

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

People are pissed because NOBODY gets a pension anymore, and they're jealous.
Hot Take: Whatever benefits Congress is guaranteed should be guaranteed to ALL Americans. They don't want to legislate paid time off, maternity leave, or pensions for EVERYONE, they shouldn't get them.

That's where we are now, violence, death threats, corruption, citizens being taken off the streets and locked up in foreign prisons, blackmail, attacks on journalists, news outlets, threats against judges, inflation, bad economy, tariffs and much more.
Exactly what we all predicted and expected….

The alternative to the pension thing would be to leave a day before it kicks in and nothing? Of all the horrors that that MTG has brought down with her, let’s let that one go.

Insider trading is dirty business but the payments come from private entities & is private funding.
Her pension is taxpayer-paid & therefore publicly funded. I this is the crux of the anger at her waiting for her pension to vest.

This should not be over looked. Provoking and creating violence is disgustingly, all too real in the Trump administration
"It’s too easy to say, Nothing matters, LOL, Supreme Court. But it matters a lot to have a judge say that the DHS officers themselves incited violence. They created violence and then they answered it with their own violence. And I think that is the moral of the story." @dahlialithwick.bsky.social
Trump’s Border Chief Framed Protesters for Violence. Then the Bodycam Footage Came Out.
The Trump administration faced back-to-back rebukes in a pair of cases that challenged the president’s efforts to intimidate or terrorize deep-blue cities.
