Trump is threatening 25% tariffs on European autos, supposedly to protect national security. He has NO RIGHT to impose tariffs as that is up to Congress. This is a clear abuse of presidential power. It gets worse: the Republican administration won't release the report supposedly justifying its actions:
Of course Trump is targeting the disabled. How many other things are they doing behind our backs?
Some Americans could lose Social Security Disability Insurance benefits under a recent Trump administration proposal ― a change that could affect thousands of people but that has received little attention since it was first floated in November.
More than 8 million Americans receive disability benefits based on past employment and a loss of wage income due to the onset of a severe disability.
Park rangers belong in our parks, serving visitors and protecting the public lands that belong to us all, not at the border.
The Trump administration is sending a new “surge” of rangers from US national parks such as Zion, Yosemite and the National Mall to patrol the southern border for crossings by illegal immigrants.
Happy Holidays everyone.... Republican style:
Trump failed to repeal the Affordable Care Act, but he's been abusing his power to sabotage the law, and today there are 400,000 more uninsured children.
The number of uninsured children ballooned by more than 400,000 between 2016 and 2018, an unprecedented decline in health coverage for the youngest Americans, a new study has found.
Republicans are liars and unfortunately they're good at it. That and millions of people are stupid enough to buy their BS.
Despite his false claims otherwise, the cost of Trump's trade-war-by-tweet will land "entirely" on American families. Imagine that.
Americans are paying more because of Trump's Tariffs against Chinese goods. The Trump admin's erratic trade policy means that there remains the risk of further escalation and a further burden on the American people.
Not too many policy moves less popular than this one!
Treasury Department officials are considering rolling back a tax rule aimed at preventing American companies from moving money offshore to avoid U.S. taxes.
The Treasury is looking at regulations intended to prevent American firms from lowering their U.S. tax bills by shifting income to their offshore branches.... The department is also contemplating repealing them entirely to replace them with something more business-friendly.
Trump and Republicans have taken their hate for a government-run single-payer health care system official, signing an executive order decrying Medicare-for-all and promoting private insurance’s role in Medicare.
Meanwhile as Trump fills the news with none stop corruption and hate, Republican policies are leading to the shuttering of rural hospitals across the United States. And if the Republican lawsuit to kill the ACA succeeds, the wave will become a deadly tsunami.
More than half of all rural hospitals in Mississippi, South Carolina, Georgia and Oklahoma lost money from 2011 through 2017.
