WASHINGTON (AP) - Retail sales fell sharply in May as consumers pulled back after a sharp increase in spending in March to get ahead of President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs on nearly all imports.

What the GOP has taught the world is that America CANNOT be trusted. Our word means NOTHING! TACO backed us out of deals that took decades of negotiations to achieve and were working. He betrayed people who helped us in every foreign war of recent times. He has spit in the eye of our

Canada is urging its citizens to leave Iran and go to Turkey or Armenia.

Marge calls Fox News “propaganda” that “brainwashes” people into supporting wars (Tucker said this yesterday also)

They are thieves.

The age-old idea that people get more conservative over time? Might want to rethink that.

John Fetterman, everybody

Stephen Miller is the one who really controls the Department of Homeland Security, according to former Trump administration Homeland Security staffer Miles Taylor. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has been demoted to nothing more than a mouthpiece for his agenda, he said.

In the spring of 2008, I feared America was on the verge of war with Iran — and, believing that it’s good style to get to know people before you bomb them, I made “Rick Steves’ Iran,” a one-hour special that could (and would) only debut on PBS. Sadly, this special has become pertinent again today.

Before Taco Bonespurs was to meet Claudia Shienbaum & Zelensky, he left the G7 summit. He is afraid of powerful women & brave people like Zelensky. He is a gutless, lying, small minded, revengeful little person. Get rid of the destructive malignant narcissist.

That’s exactly what this is about. Distraction. For all of this and that lame duck, low energy spectacle

There it is. "Going along with Israel's request that the US deliver powerful bunker-busting bombs to destroy Iran's nuclear facility at Fordo."

The White House called a lid, meaning that Trump isn’t expected to be seen or heard from for the rest of the evening. Cool, cool. Not like the American people need to hear from POTUS while we’re tweeting our way into a war, or anything.

Good morning, BlueSky!💙💙

We were all predicting Hoover II but it looks like we might get W Bush’s second term on steroids.

Unfortunately....NO LIES TOLD. .🤔

@jaketapper.bsky.social Aren't you the hack who said Trump ran a disciplined campaign after he talked fondly about a dead golfer's huge cock and then he sucked off a microphone? And then swayed to random songs for over 30 minutes? You're a joke.

@cnn.com This is why you’ve lost viewers. Trying to get the same audience as Fox is never going to work.

C-SPAN caller to Tapper: "When are you going to examine what's going on with Trump? ... this president has been pure chaos, which indicates to me that there is something wrong with him. We will never get a straight answer on his medical exam, and yet you have gone after Joe Biden with a vengeance."

CNN: "Breaking just moments ago. New data showing consumers cut back spending sharply last month ... this does appears to at least partially be driven by a hangover from tariffs."

"I'm happy to report I'm just fine. I lost a button. But I'm gonna sleep in my bed tonight, safe, with my family... At that elevator, I was separated from someone named Edgardo... Edgardo is in ICE detention and he's not going to sleep in his bed tonight."

Let me be clear: The President does not have the authority to attack Iran. Only the Congress has the constitutional power to declare war. President Trump must work to end this conflict — not drag us further into it.

Fox News host Will Cain: "The 'No Secret Police Act' would ban local, state, and federal law enforcement from covering their faces when interacting with the public. Officers would also have to wear identifying information on them, like name tags. Hard to believe this is real!"

“Where is it? Where is the warrant?” Watch NYC comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander detained at an immigration court⬇️

NY Governor Kathy Hochul inside 26 Federal Plaza now, seeking answers from DHS/ICE about the arrest of NYC Comptroller Brad Lander, who is still being detained. @thecity.nyc "How long is this going to take, I don't think he has a long rap sheet," Hochul says to agents.

Moulton: It turns out the U.S. Army is not great at doing Soviet-style or North Korean-style parades, because that’s not what people sign up to do… Imagine how much veteran housing you could build for $40 million. You could help a lot of vets with that kind of money. And this parade helped nobody.

I still can't get past the idea that people in America are now supposed to accept that this is a valid form of law enforcement and just assume it's fine when random dudes in groups with face-coverings, no ID, no warrant, & no uniform grab people off the street and force them into unmarked vehicles

I love it so much ❤️
