NEW: Ever feel like everything takes longer, costs more, and leaves you more frustrated than it should? That’s not a coincidence. We call it the Annoyance Economy, and it costs American families $165 billion a year in wasted time and money. 👇 groundworkcollaborative.org/work/taking-on…

Trump's plan to protect Americans from soaring utility bills? Voluntary pledges from the same Big Tech companies driving up energy costs with their data centers. 🙃 Our polling with @DataforProgress shows 60% of voters want crackdowns on price gouging — not pinky promises from corporations.

.@FOXLA’s anchor had to pause as our @AlexSJacquez explained that gas prices will continue to soar until there are credible peace talks in Iran. “There’s really just no ceiling with the prices here until the conflict is resolved.”

On @MSNOWNews, @AlexSJacquez warns the oil price spike from Trump’s war with Iran will ripple through the economy — causing gas prices, airfare, and food costs to rise at a time when job losses and slowing growth are already raising recession fears.

Trump’s war in Iran = serious pain at the pump for American families. And this is just the beginning. Trump’s response to skyrocketing prices? “If they rise, they rise.”
Patrick De Haan@GasBuddyGuy

The national average price of gasoline stands at $3.93/gal, now up 99c/gal from a month ago, with diesel at $5.16/gal, up $1.47/gal from a month ago. Combining spending on gasoline and diesel, Americans are paying ~$575 million more every day compared to a month ago.

Walmart shoppers: some changes are coming to how Walmart sets their prices. And it's not great.

The Fed held rates steady – because it has no good options. 🥾92,000 jobs lost in February 📉 GDP revised down 50% 🚀 Inflation running above target And Trump's war in Iran hasn't even fully hit supply chains yet. @AlexSJacquez calls it what it is: economic mismanagement.

🚨 Total factor productivity grew just 0.8% in 2025, down from 1.5% in 2024. Notable tidbit: In 2024, the 1.6-percent growth in the contribution of intellectual property products accounted for more than half of the 2.7-percent capital input growth. Equipment’s contribution, however, has declined since 2019.
