At a Justice Department conference in February, then-acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove told the department's top drug prosecutors that the Trump administration wasn't interested in interdicting suspected drug vessels at sea anymore. Instead, he said, the U.S. should "just sink the boats," according to three people present for the speech.

Remember: The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

Of the last 5 Republicans to be House speaker, one was a child molester (Dennis Hastert) and one actively tried to cover up a child sex trafficking ring (Mike Johnson).

Opinion | Kids Need Stronger Soft Skills in the Age of AI Jennifer L. Steele writes that teachers still have tools to teach children soft skills even as artificial intelligence becomes more popular.

OPINION: "Perhaps the most important skill schools can teach children today is the self-awareness to prioritize learning over shortcuts, and to refrain from delegating work to machines until they know how to do it themselves," Jennifer L. Steele writes.

Beyer Statement On Trumpโ€™s Tariff Retreat
Administration Admits Tariffs And Trade War Chaos Are Driving Up Prices
Share on Facebook Share on X Print this Page Share by Email
Washington, November 14, 2025
Tags: Economy , Oversight
Congressman Don Beyer (D-VA), who serves on the House Ways and Means Subcommittee on Trade and recently joined Reps. Ro Khanna (D-A), Don Bacon (R-NE), and Maggie Goodlander (D-NH) in introducing the bipartisan No Coffee Tax Act to repeal President Trumpโ€™s coffee tariffs, issued the following statement on the Trump Administrationโ€™s repeal of its own tariffs on goods including coffee and other food items:

โ€œPresident Trump is finally admitting what we always knew: his tariffs are raising prices for the American people.

โ€œAfter getting drubbed in recent elections because of votersโ€™ fury that Trump has broken his promises to fix inflation, the White House is trying to cast this tariff retreat as a โ€˜pivot to affordability.โ€™ The simple truth is that Republicans want credit for something they think the Supreme Court will force them to do anyway, after oral arguments before the Court on Trumpโ€™s illegal abuses of trade authorities went badly for the Administration.  Trump is still keeping the vast majority of his tariffs in place, and his administration is also planning new tariffs in anticipation of a Supreme Court loss.

โ€œThe same logic โ€“ that Trumpโ€™s tariffs are driving up prices on coffee, fruit, and other comestibles โ€“ is equally true for the thousands of other goods on which his tariffs remain. While this move may alleviate some of the cost increases Trump caused, it will not stop the larger problems of rising inflation, business uncertainty, and economic damage done by Trumpโ€™s crazy tariff scheme. Only Congress can do that, by reclaiming its legal responsibility under the Constitution to regulate trade, and permanently ending Trumpโ€™s trade war chaos.

โ€œAll but a handful of Republicans in Congress are still refusing to stand up to Trump, stoโ€ฆ

Trump's retreat from tariffs on coffee, bananas, and other groceries is an admission that his trade wars are driving prices up for the American people.

That is still just as true for the thousands of other goods he's keeping tariffs on!

The brief mentions fentanyl multiple times as a justification for the strikes, even as the bulk of the drug entering the US is known to come over land from Mexico. There is no evidence that Venezuela, where one of the newly classified terrorist organizations is based, is making and moving fentanyl.
