Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me.

There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine.

The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

Chris Murphy: "It appears as if America is trying to align itself with dictators, that Donald Trump wants us to have our closest relationships with despots all around the world, because that makes it easier for him to transition American into a kleptocratic oligarchy."

Last night, Trump promised he wouldn't touch Medicaid.

This morning, Trump endorsed the House Republican plan to slash Medicaid.

It's smoke and mirrors: Trump and Republicans are plotting to take away health care from millions of people to pay for tax breaks for billionaires.
Trump said in an interview with Elon Musk that he wouldn't touch Medicaid. Hours later he endorsed a GOP plan that could slash the program.
Donald Trump said he would "love and cherish" Medicaid. He's endorsed a House GOP proposal that would likely gut the program.

The Trump administration has excoriated USAID programs as fraught with waste and abuse. But those who have worked with USAID programs say they've had a role in preventing some migration — and could help Trump accomplish his goals of slashing illegal entries into the U.S. and controlling the border.
Ending USAID programs could undercut Trump's goal of slashing migration to the U.S., groups say
In Colombia and Haiti, U.S. money has provided tools for farming and fishing and given incentives for people to stay in those countries instead of migrating to the U.S.

Many people are asking me if Elon Musk is stealing tax-payer money or using our private information to enrich himself?

I’m a Member of Congress on the committee for Government Oversight and I can’t tell you that he’s not. That’s a problem.

Treasury stays silent.

White House stays silent.

Why the secrecy? Time for an explanation and full transparency.
