Trump's tariffs are making home building materials like lumber, copper, aluminum, and steel more expensive — and could result in 450,000 fewer homes being built over the next five years.
Yet another way they're making your life worse.

BREAKING: Court rules the Trump-Vance admin cannot block Members of Congress from conducting oversight at federal immigration detention facilities.
This victory in our case comes at a critical moment where reports of people being detained, and the abuses they endure, are only growing.

Trump’s immigration agenda is rooted in racism. Ending Temporary Protected Status for predominantly Black and Brown nations tells you exactly who this administration is targeting. Racism is not immigration policy, and we deserve better.

NEW: When Missouri Republicans claimed their congressional gerrymander was already in effect, they dealt a major blow to voters wanting the final word in the state’s redistricting battle. But pro-voter organizers say there’s still a path forward.

Trump and Republicans in Congress seem to love socialism for the rich -- corporate welfare, subsidies, and tax breaks galore. Yet they demand harsh capitalism for the rest of America.

The cuts to Medicaid &
food assistance won't
apply to them?
But the rest of the states
get a kick in the teeth?
WTF?
Federal law should be

Wild how they say one of the horrible things about the Civil War was that it "broke up families" without any irony when for 400 years they broke up Black families as a matter of course.
The thing they've always hated as much as us is when you show them their own evil while looking just like them.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill is a deal with the devil.
It hikes up taxes on people making less than $50,000 while cutting Medicaid and SNAP benefits to give Elon Musk and greedy billionaires a huge tax break.
You do the math. Is that worth it to you?

Funny how Marco Rubio calls himself a devout Catholic while celebrating the death of USAID. Catholic doctrine demands a preferential option for the poor, not a crusade to starve them. Spare us the sanctimony. Your faith is just a prop when it’s convenient.
