Trump’s tariffs aren’t just creating chaos for businesses, workers, and families—it’s codifying corruption.
Trump scrapped years of trade agreements to strong-arm new ones where he comes out on top.
The result: he cashes in, while you pay the price.
Trump claims his economy is “booming,” but the majority of Americans disagree.
As is the case with all of Trump’s price hikes, this was entirely avoidable.
Missed Trump’s IRS CEO dodging questions in front of the Ways and Means Committee today?
We’ve got you covered. Catch up on the highlights here:
Republicans can only muster temporary when it comes to workers and families.
But billionaires? Permanent tax cuts.
More on how IRS CEO Frank Bisignano refused to answer questions for the American people:
Watch this moment unfold:
Democrats approve this message.
Tax season is underway across the country, and Trump’s cuts are making themselves known.
Today, Ways and Means Democrats are demanding answers for the millions trying to file their taxes.
The only administration where the law can be broken over 40,000 times and not one person is held accountable.
Trump's IRS CEO had no answers for @mikethompson.house.gov:
Would the 42,696th violation of the law finally raise an eyebrow from Republicans?
Ranking Member @neal.house.gov:
It’s been a turbulent tax season at the IRS.
And today, Democrats are demanding answers.
The Trump Administration’s idea of “cheaper health care”
Since Trump took office, the average American family has already paid more than $1,700 in tariff costs.
Saying it out loud doesn’t just make it happen, Mr. President.
In Thursday’s opinion, the judge used pointed language to describe the IRS’s verification standard. Under the government’s process, she wrote, ICE could have submitted a request with an address like “Don’t Care 12345” or simply “00000” and still received a taxpayer’s home address from the agency.
Illegal, careless, and dangerous.
It's beyond appalling.
Would the 42,696th violation make Republicans care?
For most people with ACA coverage, this deductible eats more than HALF of their income.
This is the wealthiest nation on Earth. Why are Republicans asking people to fork over more than half of their income for basic care?
This is classic Trump:
1. Break the law
2. Get caught
3. Try to change the law
The American people were illegally charged, and you should be made whole—not asked to forfeit some of your money to jump the line.
“The way the economy’s going, you can’t live off of one job, even two jobs sometimes.”
Right now, more people are being forced to work multiple jobs just to make ends meet.
Did you know that 15 of the 43 drugs on TrumpRx can be found cheaper elsewhere?
He won’t say that because saving you money doesn’t matter if his name isn’t on it. #SOTU

🔴 TRUMP: We will always protect Medicare.
🟢 REALITY: Reader, his tax cuts fast-tracked Medicare bankruptcy by 12 years. More below:
🔴 TRUMP: NO TAXES ON SOCIAL SECURITY
🟢 REALITY: The Administration is conflating “no tax on Social Security” with a temporary deduction of up to $6,000 for seniors, not limited to Social Security income.
(This is on top of their cuts to Medicaid and Medicare that have reduced access to health care)
🔴 TRUMP: NO TAXES ON OVERTIME
🟢 REALITY: Workers only get a temporary, partial deduction capped at $12,500 that expires in 2028. And they will still owe FICA and payroll taxes.
🔴 TRUMP: NO TAXES ON TIPS
🟢 REALITY: 8 million tipped employees will still pay $10 billion in FICA taxes in 2026.
