Trump drops tariffs on beef, coffee and other foods as affordability concerns grow
Exemptions mark a sharp reversal for U.S. President, who has claimed his import duties do not fuel inflation
“The Trump Admin is finally admitting publicly what we’ve all known from the start: Trump’s Trade War is hiking costs on people,” (Dem) Neal. “Since implementing these tariffs, inflation has increased & manufacturing has contracted month after month.”

The fight against climate change appears to be officially dead
Rich countries are feeling less inclined to fight emissions in the years ahead, which will affect the world’s most disadvantaged
“The Bill Gates memo is right about 1 thing: People like him don’t have to worry about climate change. He has the money to find workarounds… It’s the poor and disadvantaged who will pay the biggest price for our inaction, including with their lives.”

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

Zohran wins!
As a Muslim immigrant, this moment hits deep. A proud day for New York & for everyone who believes in what America can be.

"Mamdani’s win represents a major triumph for progressives, empowering a new coalition of younger voters and immigrants... Some voters compared the feeling of voting for Mamdani to the hope they felt when Barack Obama ran for president in 2008."

“This is a guns-not-butter budget with massive new spending on border guards, police & the military, but austerity for programs that care for people and nature,” said Keith Stewart, at Greenpeace Canada 🇨🇦

Trump Is Very Confused About Nuclear Weapons
The president says he wants to resume nuclear testing but doesn’t seem to know why.
The president wants to resume nuclear testing. This is a really bad idea - and he can't even get his facts right about why he wants to do it:
