Flexport CEO: "Thousands, and then millions, of American small businesses, including many iconic brands, will go bankrupt this year if the tariff policies on China don’t change ... When the brands fail, they will be purchased out of bankruptcy by their Chinese factories"

The Trump administration’s policies are set to severely diminish the economy, not only for the next few months but for years. The administration’s trade war is undermining the global safe-haven status of the U.S., which has provided incalculable benefits, including our economy’s

Tariffs are crushing American small businesses. A few days ago, I spoke with the owner of a 75-year-old U.S. manufacturer. He told me: Tariffs hit harder than taxes — slamming cash flow immediately. This isn’t strategy. It’s insanity. It’s inflating prices, shrinking supply,

With the news that Trump formally accepted the Qatari jet: I took to the Senate floor to pass my bill to block DoD from spending a single penny on a foreign Air Force One It’s a bribe It’s a national security threat But Republicans stood with Trump and blocked my bill THAT’S

Almost everything we appreciate about modern civilization is downstream of rapid economic growth. The bar for taking actions likely to slow that growth ought to be extremely high.

Pretty much the worst thing to do is happening: instead of brain draining the world now the best startups will happen outside of the United States Colossal blunder at the dawn of the age of intelligence

Sixteen months ago, a new friend invited me to join a group of Jewish community members who gathered every Sunday morning in a local park to show solidarity with the hostages taken by Hamas. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but that Sunday, I showed up. What I found was both

81 years ago today, the world changed. As the Nazi war machine spread across Europe, the British empire & the armies of France were beaten back, and as Jews were being massacred, enslaved, and gassed, the tides of history turned. A soldier landed on the beaches of Normandy. 1🧵

AM YISRAEL CHAI Praying for the safety of my family and loved ones, for the campaign to be swift and successful, for the safe return of all our soldiers risking their lives for all of us, and for the Iranian people, who might now have a chance for real freedom.

The world can achieve peace in the Middle East, or it can accept a rogue nuclear weapons program—but it cannot have both. The decisive destruction of the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant prevents the dangerous spread of nuclear weapons in the world’s most combustible region. No one

I try not to be surprised by this guy, but this is different. The United Nations was created to maintain peace and prevent war. It should be the loudest voice against nuclear proliferation. Yet here we are. Iran getting a nuclear bomb would be catastrophic for the region and the

I grew up in the former Soviet Union with memories of government owned supermarkets looking like this. Now it’s 2025 and watching people eat up NYC’s probable new mayor talking about government owned supermarkets to reduce food costs. These supermarkets make 1.6% net margin.

Zohran's "government grocery store" idea is nuts. If it succeeded in underselling private stores (which it wouldn't), it would just put a bunch of independent minority-owned and immigrant-owned stores out of business. Insanity.

Socialism is like polio, it comes back when people forget about the horrible damage it did last time.

Happy July 4th! Happy 249th Birthday to America! 🇺🇸 My life has been a journey—from public housing in the Bronx to the House of Representatives in Washington, D.C. I am forever grateful for the opportunities that America has given me. Opportunity is not an aristocratic

Life in 1776: - heat is such a luxury that Thomas Jefferson can’t write in deep winter bc his ink freezes (one reason perhaps why Independence Day is in July) - nighttime darkness is such a burden that George Washington reportedly spent $15k in today’s dollars on candles every

Nobody talks about politics on this platform so I decided to be the first person to share my feelings

It's weird you were quiet when we all knew Biden could neither beat Trump nor serve another term. And it's weird you're now loud when a 33 year-old with no management or executive experience, who favors "seizing the means of production" and opening government grocery stores to

She nailed it. Can’t be said enough times.

People don't realize how horrible cancer is. It doesn't just kill people; it turns their life into a nightmare. mRNA could turn that nightmare into a routine, manageable disease. And yet Trump wants to kill mRNA because of some stupid online politics meme bullshit.
