Trump’s tariffs are driving up costs across the economy. Even Mother’s Day is getting more expensive this year, with flower prices up 16%. @groundwork.bsky.social's Liz Pancotti says wages aren’t keeping up with prices, adding pressure to already-strained household budgets.

High prices aren’t going away anytime soon thanks to President Trump’s unnecessary war. “This is going to bleed into the summer and fall,” hurting farmers and consumers, says Gbenga Ajilore on WHSV News.

Economist Alfredo Romero shares the latest information on the ruling that declared certain tariffs illegal and explains what might happen with the refund of those funds. He also analyzes how the new 15% tariff imposed by Donald Trump might play out and its impact on the economy.

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.”

The Trump administration has spent months spinning bad economic data as a “hoax.” Meanwhile, more and more Americans are struggling to keep up with skyrocketing utility bills, grocery prices, and health insurance premiums. @scrippsnews.bsky.social

Data centers aren’t massive job creators. So communities must negotiate real benefits. @katenrg.bsky.social says strong agreements can require companies to cover infrastructure costs, invest in resilience, and strengthen the local tax base so families see lasting gains, not just higher bills.

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.

"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.

Although some headlines suggest an increase in job numbers, businesses and consumers feel differently. Economist Alfredo Romero shows why the stats don’t always match the economic reality for working families and business owners.

The IRS is severely unprepared this filing season. With a 30% staff cut and 98% vacancy in processing units, the agency is failing the millions of Americans who depend on their refund and now face long delays. Listen to @asteephen.bsky.social on @civicmedia.us: civicmedia.us/shows/nite-l...

Farmers in tractors blocked roads, threw potatoes and eggs, and set off fireworks in Brussels on Wednesday outside a European Union leaders’ summit, as protesters rallied against a major free-trade deal with South American nations. After the protest, residents came to collect the potatoes for food.

Every single protester at Delaney has been completely surrounded and the press has been expelled from the crowd. This allows the state authorities to do WHATEVER THEY WANT WITHOUT ANYONE RECORDING/ WATCHING. Pray for the protesters and the victims on hunger strike...

Senate Republicans would rather fund ICE and CBP with no reforms than pass @kim.senate.gov's amendment that would audit conditions at Delaney Hall immigration detention center.
