Schumer: "One of the worst decisions Donald Trump has made and given his presidency that's saying a whole lot. Why are they imposing such tariffs on people? There's one reason. They want to use this money for tax breaks for billionaires and they're making the average American family pay $5k a year."

3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

Jan 6 must be fully & conclusively adjudicated in a court of law if this country is to ever move forward.

Dems should see the FOTUS IG memo as an opportunity.

If they can take a break from creating moments of comity they should be firing off letters to IGs saying they expect them to remain on the job & continue investigations, until FOTUS complies with the law.
