Julie Brinn Siegel on @dakotanewsnow.com: Trump’s DOGE cuts have left IRS staffing at a historic low. With a third of senior managers gone and the elimination of IRS-run filing tools, families are now facing longer wait times, higher costs, and increased scam risks.

@alexsjacquez.bsky.social: Trump’s tariffs and war with Iran are fueling higher prices across the economy. While the wealthiest Americans keep spending, working families are forced to cut back as gas, groceries, and housing get more expensive.

Con experiencia de primera mano en políticas, Alejandra Y. Castillo, ex subsecretaria de Comercio de Estados Unidos para el Desarrollo Económico, explica qué está en juego a medida que se intensifican las redadas migratorias.

Americans have paid $16B more at the pump since Trump’s war with Iran began. Kitty Richards joined ABC News Live to break down higher costs across the economy as consumer sentiment hits new lows. "Anything that requires fuel or transportation is gonna see a price increase."

Hay 5 millones de emprendedores latinos en los Estados Unidos, y el gobierno les está cerrando la puerta en las narices. La economista Lorelei Salas explica por qué los nuevos requisitos de la SBA están poniendo en riesgo a miles de negocios propiedad de latinos.

Trump’s war in Iran has made gas prices soar, so he’s trying to lower them with a gas tax holiday. But, as Rohit Chopra said, that won’t mean much: “Gas prices have shot up over $1.50, so that 18 cents is just a tiny fraction that is really chipping away at how much people are spending.”

Trump’s war with Iran is making life more unaffordable, driving up prices for oil and fertilizer at a time when Americans are already paying too much for health care, rent, and groceries. "It's not just the gas we put in our car. It's gonna show up on grocery shelves." — Liz Pancotti

Trump’s tariffs, war with Iran, and other policy choices continue to harm working Americans and drive up prices. As Aya Ibrahim said: “50-75% of the increase in inflation over the Federal Reserve’s target is a result of the tariffs.”

Working harder should not mean living worse. Lissette Engel analyzes growing job insecurity, the abuse of delivery app drivers, and the lack of protection for temporary workers.

President Trump’s tariffs have done nothing but hurt the job market and drive up prices for consumers and businesses. Rohit Chopra says any refunds going to corporations must be disclosed and passed along to the consumers who have paid thousands in extra fees for everyday goods.

There is a pattern here. When the question is simple but the answer is politically expensive, people suddenly need “more context.” I saw it in legislative meetings. Now I’m watching it play out nationally. The language is different. The strategy is the same. Delay. Deflect. Avoid the clean answer.

Я повен мрій про велелюдну згоду, Бо дням моїм не буде вороття, Бо хочу я, щоб на чолі народу Світився знак і від мого життя. Бо там, де я пройшов, удруге не пройду. В слідах моїх земля дуби підніме й трави, І виплеснуть вони знов силу молоду Під крила вечорів і під світань заграви.

Russie 🇷🇺 Comment les Russes recrutent des Africains ? Ils promettent des salaires exorbitants une fois arrivés à Moscou mais il faudra payer entre 2k et 3k dollars pour venir. Arrivée en Russie, la personne est envoyée de force au front. Un commerce de la mort rentable.
