Congressional Republicans want to raise taxes on the bottom half of Americans and they aren't even trying to hide it anymore. Whenever they say that they’re for low taxes, they mean for the rich, otherwise they want to raise your taxes.
Mike Lee@BasedMikeLee

@WallStreetMav @Afterseven Exempting vast swaths of the population from income tax is a risky endeavor It sends the false message that big government is free It’s not—even to those with little or no income tax liability

Inflation just shot up to the highest level in 3 years and Trump is posting stuff like this. They don't care that the people are suffering, Trump and his elitist friends are living the high life and that's all that matters.

Trump's reckless war is driving up prices across the country, but especially in the Midwest, with Michigan getting hit the third hardest of any other state after Indiana and Ohio. All three of those states voted for Trump—and he repaid them by draining their residents' wallets.
Patrick De Haan@GasBuddyGuy

Explosive gas price jumps in the last week- biggest jumps in average price: Indiana up $1.09/gal Ohio up 94c/gal Michigan up 88c/gal Illinois up 56c/gal Colorado up 47c/gal Kansas up 39c/gal Kentucky up 36c/gal Florida up 34c/gal Wyoming up 34c/gal Wisconsin up 33c/gal

When Democrats tried to take on price gouging, MAGA jumped to defend oil companies. Now that Trump started his Iran War, oil companies just suddenly randomly became more than 40+% more greedy. The lengths they go to deflect accountability from Trump and themselves is pathetic.
MeidasTouch@MeidasTouch

Rep. Burchett (R-TN) refuses to put any blame on Trump for high gas prices. Burchett: It has to do with the greed of the oil companies. We buy zero oil from Iran. 90% of their oil they sell to China. They're just gouging us. And I blame Congress.

Inflation is severely outpacing GDP growth, with the rate of inflation now more than 60% higher than the rate of GDP growth. These awful economic numbers are unsustainable, and American families are being absolutely devastated by of Trump's harmful policies.
Headquarters@HQNewsNow

The US GDP has slowed to only 2% in the first quarter of 2026. This comes as Trump's war in Iran has skyrocketed prices and spiked the inflation rate to 3.2%.

Gas prices are skyrocketing. Beef prices are up 20%. Americans can't afford their energy bills. Of course Trump's poll numbers on inflation are the worst of any president in history (net NEGATIVE 49 🤮).
(((Harry Enten)))@ForecasterEnten

Trump's numbers on inflation aren't just the worst for him ever. They're the worst I've seen for any president. They're worse than Biden's worst & worse than Carter's pre-1980 election. On the cost of living, just 9% of indies & 39% (!) of the GOP say we're on the right track.

Affordability isn’t a “hoax”, and it’s not just a slogan. Proud to join @USProgressives New Affordability Agenda, which will: ✔️Refund you when oil companies jack up prices ✔️Offer 20k in downpayment assistance ✔️Ensure $10/day childcare for most families
Congressman Greg Casar@RepCasar

Today we are announcing the Progressive Caucus’ New Affordability Agenda. Donald Trump lied about bringing down costs. We need an actual plan to make things cheaper by taking on corporations ripping people off. Under this plan, every American family saves money. Here's how -->

This means higher electricity bills, higher grocery costs, and higher gas prices. Thanks to Trump's reckless was war that he insisted ended over a month ago. No wonder the highest share of Americans in over 25 years are saying that their financial situation is getting worse.

The Kobeissi Letter@KobeissiLetter

BREAKING: Brent crude oil prices officially surge to their highest level of the Iran War, at $119.50/barrel. This puts Brent crude oil prices at their highest level since 2022. The IEA has called this the “biggest energy security threat in history.“

Today, SCOTUS slashed minority voting power by gutting the VRA. 

This will set off more gerrymandering across MAGA states nationwide, stopping minority communities from receiving true voting rights.

Congress must pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act now to fight back.
