OMG: The signage behind Trump at his so-called affordability event today reads "LOWER PRICES" and "BIGGER PAYCHECKS"
Trump's strategy to counter his disastrous handling of the affordability crisis is to just...lie about it.
This is a gift to Democrats.

When costs skyrocket on health care premiums next year, millions will lose insurance entirely.
That damage won’t be contained. No matter what insurance you have, we will all be stuck footing the bill with higher prices and worse care.

YIKES! Fox “News” host and Trump lackey Laura Ingraham just tried to tell a whopper of a lie to cover for Trump’s farmer bailout plan, pretending tariffs are paid by foreign countries. A community note fact check quickly corrected the record.

To improve the grid, Alberta could:
1️⃣Expand our intertie capacity to B.C. (and other neighbours like Saskatchewan)
2️⃣ Implement demand side resources!!
🌍🌏📅 These are steps that many other place have proven will work and improve the reliability and affordability of electricity year-round.

This is the most milquetoast, awkward, stilted comment on an issue that demands actual passion. The House Dems badly need a different front man.
Maybe not a different minority leader - maybe he's great at managing the caucus and doing the other political work. But as a speaker this is terrible

What’s happening at the Supreme Court this week is bigger than just one FTC commissioner. The majority seems ready to endorse the “unitary executive” theory, giving Trump the power to purge agency staffers and replace them with loyalists. It’s a frightening prospect we should be paying attention to.

So let’s say it as is - US media is now a source disinformation that’s far more effective than RU media since you cannot even compare the reach and respect the US outlets receive worldwide.
