A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief.
The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."
The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.

Post from Truth Social reading: Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell - JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah, President DONALD J. TRUMP
This is also likely stock market manipulation. He lets the markets surge one way based on this post, then will tip off his rich friends before another post that sends it surging the other direction. Such easy money, he can't resist. But appallingly evil.

The problem with consolidation is that companies can make money elsewhere and still afford to flood society with right wing news. Fox Corp is a good example: Fox Sports is way more profitable and growing than Fox News.

Still figuring out what’s next. But I will say:
To any candidate who wants help setting up a new style of campaign, who needs advice on integrating mutual aid in their operations, who has questions about any weird, fun, unconventional part of our race,
I would love to talk. Let me know.

‘Americans at heart’: ICE detains DACA recipient on way to visit premature baby in NICU
Juan Chavez Velasco’s case reflects a growing pattern: The Trump administration is targeting Dreamers who once believed DACA shielded them — and letting their renewals expire unanswered.
NEW: ICE detained DACA recipient Juan Chavez Velasco 12 days after his youngest child was born prematurely. The father of 3 U.S. citizen kids was driving to deliver milk to her in NICU
"I never got to hold her" Juan told me, sharing his story for first time w/ @ms.now

Trump Abandons Iran Nuclear Deal He Long Scorned
President Trump declared on Tuesday that he was withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal, unraveling the signature foreign policy achievement of his predecessor Barack Obama, isolating the United States from its Western allies and sowing uncertainty before a risky nuclear negotiation with North Korea.
Not seeing much coverage of how Trump cancelled diplomatic deals with both Cuba and Iran in 2017 and 2018 having no replacement. This should be in the news every day. Now years later he may just get back near the starting line for both, but through death and suffering of their people. It's tragic.

NATO
Article 1
The Parties undertake, as set forth in the Charter of the United Nations, to settle any international dispute in which they may be involved by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security and justice are not endangered, and to refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force in any manner inconsistent with the purposes of the United Nations.
Per article 1, NATO is supposed to pursue peaceful resolution above all else. Yet the Trump administration started a war on false pretenses and is talking daily about bombing "just for fun", giving prisoners "no quarter", and "obliterating" etc. As it is, other NATO countries have to stay out of it.

Analysis: The U.S. is running out of ways to get oil prices down. It is up to the military.

Key Points
The Trump administration’s efforts to get oil prices down amid the war in Iran aren’t having much effect.
Americans are paying 23% more at the pump for a gallon of gas despite a plan to release 400 million barrels of oil from global strategic petroleum reserves.
A military breakthrough will likely be required to lower oil prices, and it isn’t clear when that could happen.
Blatantly pro-war opinion from CNBC masquerading as "analysis". Doesn't even mention diplomacy or other gulf states and ends with a Trumpian choice of "Iran caves or the U.S. military prevails". Lots of folks trust CNBC because they are NOT biased like Fox. But maybe not for long.

CNN Is Lying to Undermine Operation Epic Fury’s Crushing Success
Fake News CNN is at it again. While U.S. forces deliver crushing blows to obliterate Iran’s terrorist regime, CNN’s hack “journalists” are peddling Democrat-sourced fiction to undermine our decisive victories in Operation Epic Fury.
CNN alleged the Pentagon and the National Security Council “did not plan” for Iran’s willingness to close the Strait of Hormuz.
Wrong. As Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has made crystal clear, the military has planned for this exact contingency for decades. Operation Epic Fury is deliberately designed to annihilate Iran’s navy, missiles, drones, and launch capabilities precisely to eliminate any meaningful threat to global shipping lanes like the Strait of Hormuz — and thanks to President Trump’s commitment to energy dominance, America is fully prepared to crush short-term disruption and emerge stronger than ever.
Maggot Hagerman, just another SLEAZEBAG writer for The Failing New York Times, insists on writing false stories about me, even though she fully knows and understands that the exact opposite of anything she says is usually the truth. In any event, I’m thinking of adding Maggot, and some of her “associates,” into my Florida based Lawsuit against The Times which, very happily, seems to be proceeding nicely. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DJT
This is what the White House and our commander-in-chief are concentrating their time on today -- attacking and threatening non-MAGA media for the way it is covering Trump's illegal war of choice against Iran.

Donald Trump wore an oversize white and gold baseball cap at a recent dignified transfer of fallen soldiers. Fox News covered that up with old footage, sponsored today by Chase Bank and Jones Road Beauty. Don't support brands like these that fund misleading right wing media.

This isn't even a bait-and-switch situation where they air old footage but still caption it correctly.
Fox & Friends outright labels 3-month-old footage as occurring yesterday -- and the assumption has to be it was due to Trump wearing a golf hat during the dignified transfer.
