Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class.

Four things can happen when a tariff hits:
1) Foreign firms cut prices
2) Retail margins get squeezed
3) Retailers pass it on to you
4) Some imports just stop
Latest data: #1 didn’t happen, #2 a lot at first, #3 a bit so far, and #4 in spots.
Bottom line: Americans (#2, #3) are paying the tariffs.

There’s no longer any pretense this has anything to do with crime (there are cities or parts of cities in SC and Ohio that have higher crime rates than DC — send the troops there!). This is about establishing a precedent for Trump seizing control of the nation’s capital when he wants to.
WASHINGTON (AP) — South Carolina, Ohio also sending National Guard troops to DC in further escalation of federal intervention in Dem city.
