Amazon: Tariffs are making things more expensive. White House: No they aren’t. Amazon: *shows prices with tariffs* White House: This is a hostile and political act!

Trump promised dinner with top holders of his crypto coin. Then the coin’s value increased 50%. This smells like ‘pay to play’ corruption. I’m calling for an investigation. cnbc.com/2025/04/25/tru

Amazon planned to display cost of Trump's tariffs. Trump complained — Amazon backtracked. This of course comes after Bezos donated to Trump's inauguration and Amazon bought a Melania documentary. And remember that Amazon is being sued by FTC for antitrust violations. Hello?

Hey MAGA, if tariffs were so great, shouldn't Trump be proud that Amazon and other companies would want to show you how much we are making from them? In fact, they should encourage companies to do it. Why do you think they want it hidden?

đŸ§” It’s the 100th day of Trump 2.0, so here are 100 times Trump and those close to him have attacked press freedom and transparency. That doesn’t mean they’re only averaging one per day – we had to make cuts. There will probably be more attacks while we’re posting this.

Yeah, nothing to see here, just a #criminal disrespecting the recently departed #pope and an entire #religion, and it being shared by the official #WhiteHouse account. WTF??? #Trump

National security is the boogeyman invoked by the Trump administration to do whatever it wants. Today, it’s putting a tariff on movies. Tomorrow, it could be throwing journalists or sources in jail for leaks. freedom.press/issues/lights-

It is tragic and highly embarrassing that someone so vile, petty, and bereft of decency is the president. I will never understand or have peace with it. He is the greatest collective error in our history.
