Billionaire Trump donor Elon Musk owns X.

Billionaire Trump ally Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post.

With this acquisition, both CNN and CBS News would be owned by billionaire Trump donor Larry Ellison.

Oligarchs’ monopoly over our media is spiraling out of control.

To make matters worse, importers are leaving inventory in China ports. Waiting for tariffs to be lowered. If they are lowered enough, there will be a crush to ship them here and transport them when they get here. That will drive transportation costs way up. = More inflation, post tariffs
That means empty shelves, an economic slowdown, and layoffs, actually.
