Does Trump Know The Price Of Milk?
“From the day I take the oath of office, we’ll rapidly drive prices down & make America affordable again,” #Trump promised last summer as he ran for president. “Prices will come down. You just watch. They’ll come down fast.”
#Prices have not come down. 10 months after Trump took office, prices are still climbing. #Groceries are MORE expensive. #Electricity bills have spiked. It costs more to buy a new #car.
‘Things happen’
#WashingtonPost Editorial Board
Setting the record straight about our murdered colleague.
The #US govt often advances its interests by working with nasty people, & #SaudiArabia Crown Prince #MBS is one of the nastiest. It’s one thing…to reluctantly deal with him…[but] #Trump’s performance at the White House Tuesday was something else entirely: #weak, #crass & of no strategic benefit to US.
The Unraveling of the #DOJ

The President Who Cried Hoax
#Republicans went after #Epstein only when it was politically useful
By Adam Serwer
The #EpsteinFiles were the most important issue in the world, until they weren’t.
“Are you still talking about #JeffreyEpstein? This guy’s been talked about for years. Are people still talking about this guy? This creep? That is unbelievable,” #Trump scolded a reporter in July.

Wait, Are the #EpsteinFiles Real Now?
The White House’s responses get curiouser & curiouser
…the revelations are a bit too damning to be dismissed as a news-cycle gambit, so the WH took a different tack a few hours later. It released a statement noting that the unnamed victim in the #Epstein email who “spent hours” with #Trump at Epstein’s house was #VirginiaGiuffre, who “repeatedly said President Trump was not involved in any wrongdoing whatsoever.”
