Virtually every number or statistic Trump throws out on any subject - polls, election results, casualty figures, immigration, taxes, spending, economic, gas or food prices, - 95% of the time he uses a number for anything it is patently false and wildly exaggerated in his favor.

Like the wall of insults against Canada, the Trump administration is building a wall of suspicion that may scare international students away from UW and other schools, writes columnist Danny Westneat.

On CNBC today, Elizabeth Warren had to explain to anchor Sara Eisen that Congress can in fact take away Trump's tariffs authority, and also that America is not ruled by a king who can make laws by decree.

Trump, who (falsely) claimed during his election campaign that Biden wasn't doing ENOUGH to assist with NC's hurricane recovery....wait for it....just revoked Biden's Dec 2024 hurricane clean-up reimbursement agreement. #ncpol ncnewsline.com/2025/04/12/f...

Biden: Why are these guys taking aim at social security now? They are following that old line from tech startups. The quote is move fast, break things. Well, they are certainly breaking things… They want to wreck it so they can rob it

Your Tax Day reminder that trickle-down economics is a cruel hoax designed to enrich the wealthy and corporations while draining money for the middle class and the poor. Don't let billionaires fool you into thinking we shouldn't tax the rich.

Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin space venture executed a smooth suborbital spaceflight for an all-female crew that included pop superstar Katy Perry, morning-TV host Gayle King — and Lauren Sanchez, Bezos' fiancée. The flight generated celebrity buzz, but criticism as well. www.geekwire.com/2025/blue-or...

Trump's approval numbers are bad and getting worse. He's underwater on most of the "Select pollsters" in the @nytimes.com roundup. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/polls/donald-trump-approval-rating-polls.html?unlocked_article_code=1.-U4.0xde.0dXWeN7mWbFR&smid=url-share

Tariffs on their own do not create more American jobs or lead to more US production. In fact, Trump's last trade war cost roughly 300,000 jobs. All these tariffs will do is give corporations cover to jack up prices and pad their profits at our expense.

"Trump was a great businessman" is a fiction created by the producer of "The Apprentice." Before the show, Donald bankrupted three business and was billions of dollars in debt. He was only able to sustain the illusion of success because Deutsche Bank gave him big loans & Daddy gave him big handouts.

Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials. Imagine if I had said to law firms that you will not be allowed into government buildings. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me

Imagine the fallout if Biden had intentionally tanked the markets like this—and Democrats had cheered him along like it was all just some necessary disruption.

Donald Trump’s massive new tariffs mean higher prices and more chaos at the expense of American families—just to help pay for tax handouts to billionaires and big corporations. Let me explain:

People old enough may remember Trump making noises about lowering grocery prices way back in 2024. Well, now we’re tracking how well that’s going — just in time for his tariffs to kick in. Gift link: wapo.st/3E052cZ
