Under Trump, Inflation Is Costing Average US Family $700 More Per Month | Common Dreams "While President Trump claimed that he would bring down prices, the reality is that Americans have seen their costs soar even higher since he took office."

Trump has only made inflation worse even though it was the main issue he ran on and was elected to fix. What else should we have expected from a lousy businessman who bankrupted multiple businesses and even some casinos.

Trump cut US 'expansion by a third or more' in quagmire even the 'Supreme Court can’t undo' Financial writer and author Annie Lowrey tells the Atlantic that President Donald Trump’s love affair with tariffs have done damage to both to his economy and to him, and it was probably all for nothing.If the Supreme Court does the right thing and ends Trump’s tariff regime, a lot businesses and Am...

Trump is such an idiot that he needlessly wreaked havoc on our economy, companies and citizens via his obsession with tariffs. No one benefited and there was no way anyone would have.

As I've said before, we should prevent anyone who's got the dark triad or dark tetrad traits from holding public office or positions of power of any kind. We can screen them before they graduate elementary school and counsel them into being productive rather than destructive members of society!

Fantastic overview of socialism, how it was stigmatized and the often missed role of dark triad traits in those who cannibalize and parasitize our societies.

This law could force Fox News to flee the US In 2021, following MAGA’s J6 storming of the US Capitol, media columnist Margaret Sullivan observed that such orchestrated violence could not have happened without Fox News. She wrote, “The mob that stormed and desecrated the Capitol … could not have existed in a country that hadn’t been radicalized...

Trump didn't start this movement, he inherited and ran with it, arguably before the real instigators were ready to put their ongoing plot to destroy our democracy into action. www.rawstory.com/raw...

What the Economy Is Really For — And Why Tariffs Miss the Point The money to support well-paid American jobs exists—it’s just being hoarded at the top. Economist William Lazonick argues that this is not just unfair; it’s a failure of the whole economic system.

Top ICE Official Says Protesters Can Be Arrested for Simply Criticizing Mass Deportation Campaign: Court Filing | Common Dreams Court filing alleges US Border Patrol Commander-at-Large justifies arrests for "hyperbolic comments" at protests.

This appalling Trump coverup cannot last forever — and may end sooner than he thinks When Emmett Till’s mother lifted the veil from her son’s mutilated body in 1955, she forced America to face itself. She knew that if the nation could see what had been done to her child, it could no longer pretend innocence. That open casket was a moral explosion: it turned private grief into a publ...

Trump, his toadies, and enablers are doing everything they can to keep the truth about Epstein from coming out. Some are guilty of aiding Epstein's project, some because they hide the truth, and some were abusers themselves! The truth must come out!

How the Proud Boys invented antifa The far-right gang has been fully absorbed by Trump's White House
