Trump’s Affordability “Con Job” He pooh-poohs cost complaints as a “hoax.” Here’s what the numbers say.

Inflation is a measure of changes in prices, not levels of prices. So if the price of a basket of goods is not growing today but it grew a lot last year, inflation will look pretty low, even if the products in question still feel expensive or unaffordable.

WaPo is reporting that Bradley told lawmakers that Hegseth DID give a kill order.

Pollster: Trump losing young voters in some of the most stunning numbers that we have seen. Take a look at his net approval rating among those under 30. You go back to February, it was plus 10 points. Look at this drop. I'm laughing because it's down to -46 points. That is a drop of 56 points.
