Trump says children just need to live with fewer toys because of his tariffs: “Well, maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls.”

Tomi Lahren: "Trump has managed to isolate China from the rest of the world."

BTC: "There's reporting now that Japan & South Korea are negotiating trade deals with China... the EU is eliminating Chinese EV tariffs. I'm concerned you're not familiar with which country is being isolated."

WATCH: “Did you guys think twice about the whip pictures?”

We ask ‘Deputy Whips’ @aronmaberry & @leereevestn if they considered how their pics with Johnny Garrett holding actual whips would make Black reps feel.

This is a flat out lie and you should be embarrassed to have typed it and pressed send.

What a complete failure of leadership and humanity in general you are.
Some claim that requiring proof of citizenship is too onerous a burden, or that it will "disenfranchise" those whose names have changed for reasons like marriage (or divorce). The truth is the SAVE Act ensures name changes will not prevent anyone from registering to vote.

Wilmer Hale should tell Trump to go to hell. So should Jenner.

History will not be kind to the cowards at Paul Weiss nor any other firm that collaborates with Trump to destroy the rule of law.

Really feel like I’m losing my mind: government OBVIOUSLY cannot punish an individual law firm for hiring someone it disfavors! It’s ludicrously unconstitutional and I feel like without a day of law school I could argue the case. And yet the best paid lawyers in the country are folding?

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

It should be very clear to every Senate Democrat that any vote for Cloture will also be considered a vote for the bill.

People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games.

They know exactly what is going on.

Defend Medicaid.
Vote NO on Cloture.
NO on bill.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.

Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.

Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.

TODAY is the showdown.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff
