Anyone arguing that egg prices are up 20% is correct.

The important thing about Navarro is that he doesn't understand trade either!
ana swanson I asked him this question a couple of times — aren’t tariffs supposed to increase prices? Because that’s how tariffs work. They make the foreign goods more expensive, so people buy American goods, instead. But Navarro didn’t really give me a direct answer. peter navarro Here’s the thing. We are the biggest market in the world, which gives us buying power. So particularly export-dependent economies, the Chinas of this world, who heavily rely on Americans buying their products, if that becomes more difficult to do, what’s the first thing these countries are going to do in response to tariffs? What are they going to do? We slap a tariff on, what are the producers over there going to do? What are they going to do? Tell me. ana swanson What do — would they — peter navarro What’d they do? You’re a producer over there. And suddenly, tariffs are up and you’ve got to compete with an American producer. What are you going to do? ana swanson So your assumption is that they would lower their prices. peter navarro That’s exactly what they do. It’s not an assumption. That’s just a fact.

I love the choice NPR made here. Notice that the suspect is not named in the title, nor is there a picture. The focus is on the crime.

NPR headline "a suspect holding a handwritten manifesto..." with a photo of law enforcement and the governor of Pennsylvania.

I followed NRO on twitter and their stance is pretty consistent. "Trump may be bad but he absolutely should not be held accountable in any way".

Here is today's homepage for reference.
National Review Online homepage featuring an article "No, firing Jack smith would not be an obstruction of justice".
