“Exclusively to X”?! That’s tantamount to being a step toward acknowledging X is a state media platform for the Trump administration. It also serves to try to pull many less-media- literate and vulnerable elders onto a platform full of propaganda, conspiracies, and grifters.

Do I change my name now? Or wait until the senate vote? What if the senate procrastinates until it’s too late for us to get passports or change names to match our birth certificate?

We spent almost $500 to get the 3 of us passports last month. I knew this was going to pass the house. This is absolutely a poll tax on women and unconstitutional. We are being made to pay to vote.

If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.

Trump never signed an executive order to roll back the tariffs and there's none in the register so we're flying blind here

why is every newspaper/programme running with the headline "tariffs are paused" when they haven't been. What's happened is that every country (except China) gets a flat rate of 10% for 90 days.

Economist Peter Schiff: “The crash that's now happening in the bond market has more dire implications than…the stock market. If these tariffs remain in place, the US could have a full-blown financial crisis by the fall that makes the 2008 Financial Crisis look like a Sunday school picnic.”

🚨 JFC, per pool: Trump complained that the U.S. doesn't produce its own pharmaceuticals any more and talked about disparities in global prices. “We’re going to be announcing very shortly a major tariff on pharmaceuticals.” He said that will bring pharmaceutical production back to the U.S.

tl;dr: It's not just about our trinkets. We may be about to face massive food insecurity because of that man in DC. Even if you have the money, the supply chain is how most food arrives on our plates. It's an entire (politically manufactured) problem.

You either won't be able to afford food or there will be no food to buy and either way they want us grateful for whatever scraps they decide to give us.

During COVID, we learned the hard way that nearly all our hospital PPE i.e. masks, gowns, gloves comes from China. A 104% tariff could send us straight back to pandemic-level shortages or drive healthcare costs even higher.🫠

COVID didn't "turn out fine." Over 1 million people died in just the US. People are still dying. 100s of thousands of people are still dealing with the effects of Long COVID. And the entire country lost its shit and is still unwell. Tariffs will not "turn out fine." Effects will be experienced.
