As families across the country face high electricity costs, credit card debt, and rising prices for basic goods, the conflict in Iran continues to affect household budgets. Economics expert Alfredo Romero breaks it down.

"Right now, there are more children in shelters than there are seats in Yankee Stadium. This is not a program to cut back on." — Christine Quinn explains without CityFHEPS vouchers, more than half of families cycle back into NYC shelters, driving up costs and harming kids in the process.

The latest jobs report shows a stalling labor market. Wage growth is slowing at the same time that costs are rising. Liz Pancotti warns the conflict in Iran on top of Trump's tariffs — which have already cost families $1,700 — will keep pushing prices higher & squeeze family budgets.

The average Illinois household has paid nearly $2,600 more for goods since Trump took office, and costs continue to rise. @mnegron01.bsky.social joined @fox32chicago.bsky.social to explain how Trump’s tariffs and war are driving up costs across the economy and squeezing Americans’ wallets.

Kevin Warsh’s shift from hawkish inflation views to echoing Trump’s calls to lower rates is worrying for anyone concerned about rising prices. Liz Pancotti joined @macfarlanenews.bsky.social of @meidastouch.com to discuss what this nomination could mean for the economy, workers, & families' budgets.

Consumer sentiment just hit another record low as prices climb and paychecks fail to keep pace with inflation. But Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is telling Americans it’s a great time to take road trips, even as gas tops $4.50 a gallon and families feel the rising costs.

"The volatility is head-spinning." Americans want lower prices, but Trump’s policies are driving them higher at every turn. Gene Sperling explains how markets aren’t reflecting what families and small businesses are facing — slowing wage growth, mounting debt, and rising prices.

The Trump administration inherited a better-functioning IRS with better customer service and faster refunds. In one year, it has been dramatically hollowed out. @asteephen.bsky.social warns taxpayers may face longer delays and more mistakes that will cost working families the most.

Energy shocks don’t stop at the gas pump. @alexsjacquez.bsky.social explains how Trump’s war in Iran is driving oil, diesel, and jet fuel prices up — sending costs higher for shipping, food, and other essentials when families are already stretched thin.

Thursday night Jesse Watters thinks the meeting with JD Vance will go smoothly. The U.S. will just walk away. Friday morning Kuwait was hit by Iran. The government in Iran is still intact, the strait is not open, Iran might charge tolls to enter and exit the strait. 3/3

The Ebola outbreak in the DRC shows why President Trump’s withdrawal from the World Health Organization and humanitarian aid cuts are a big mistake. Infectious diseases don't know borders, and the Trump-Vance Admin’s chaotic and anti-science health policies make us all less safe.

The reviews are in and Americans are not happy with Trump’s first year. Costs are up and Trump’s only answer is to give tax cuts for the very wealthy paid for by cutting your healthcare. We need a president who actually fights for working Americans.
