I guess the plan is to just tell people like @Orlando Buffalo Hillary did it. Old Orlando is probably nodding knowingly think he figured that was the case Quote (CNN) – The Centers For Disease Control and Prevention published its weekly research report Thursday, the first time since President Donald Trump took office. However, three studies about H5N1 bird flu were missing from the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. That’s according to a person familiar with the situation who spoke to CNN on condition of anonymity. Those missing studies come as bird flu continues to spread in dairy cattle, poultry and other animals across the U.S. 2 1

Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted February 10 Author Posted February 10 House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) on the House floor accused Republicans of using “bait-and-switch” tactics on the American people, saying the GOP is doing “nothing to drive down the high cost of living” for the working class. “Everything is about massive tax cuts for billionaires and wealthy corporations, who in many cases aren’t even asking for it, and they certainly don’t need the relief that everyday Americans need,” Jeffries said. “People who spent all last year lecturing the country about how they were going to do something to drive down the high cost of living do nothing about it.”

They’re for them (Musk, Bezos, Cook, etc.), not for you (working class Americans). Which is totally true. None of the nonsense that’s gone on since Inauguration Day has helped working folks. And there’s no plan to help them either. Just distractions like MAGA-ZA, wasting time pretending to be an NFL owner at the Super Bowl, getting rolled by Canada and Mexico, not stopping the war in Ukraine, what apparently is this Mars thing, and the immigration bait and switch in which he’s either invented a problem that didn’t exist or failed to do something about it. But nothing on prices or inflation or comprehensive working class tax cuts. Not a thing. 1

Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 Feb 11 (Reuters) - Gold prices hit a record high on Tuesday, spurred by safe-haven demand as U.S. President Donald Trump's new tariffs on steel and aluminium imports heightened concerns about a possible global trade war. Spot gold hit a peak of $2,942.70 per ounce in Asian trading hours before easing to stand 0.1% lower at $2,904.59 as of 1118 GMT. Bullion's eighth record high of 2025 has brought the glittering $3,000 milestone into view as investors navigate growing uncertainties over the repercussions of U.S. trade policies. 1
Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 Just stupid https://archive.is/tEMBM#selection-2459.0-2459.175 Traders in the US are paying much higher prices for copper, aluminium and steel than their European counterparts as they rush to buy the metals ahead of President Donald Trump’s tariffs. The high US premiums reflect a “distorted” market, said Tom Price, an analyst at Panmure Liberum, reflecting fears about a “starvation of supply” rather than the more usual reason of increased demand. Higher US premiums are a reflection of “the expectation that prices will be higher in future as a result of tariffs”, said Daria Efanova, head of research at Sucden Financial. “Markets are pricing that before it actually hits.” “The uncertainty creates a skittishness,” said Al Munro, an analyst at Marex. “It creates a lack of investment. You just sit there and you don’t do anything.” The potential tariffs on steel and aluminium are likely to have a particularly big impact on Canadian aluminium smelters, which supply about 44 per cent of US aluminium needs.

Inflation perked up more than anticipated in January, providing further incentive for the Federal Reserve to hold the line on interest rates. The consumer price index, a broad measure of costs in goods and services across the U.S. economy, accelerated a seasonally adjusted 0.5% for the month, putting the annual inflation rate at 3%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Wednesday. They were higher than the respective Dow Jones estimates for 0.3% and 2.9%. The annual rate was 0.1 percentage point higher than December. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, CPI rose 0.4% on the month, putting the 12-month inflation rate at 3.3%. That compared to respective estimates for 0.3% and 3.1%. The annual core rate also was up 0.1 percentage point from December.

Trump administration is going to give you the real numbers on everything now. When inflation is actually under control by January 2026 thanks to finally addressing the debt and trade deficits, I cannot wait to see the commie responses. 1
Trump_is_Mentally_fit Posted February 12 Author Posted February 12 https://www.newsweek.com/gas-prices-soaring-trump-2029770 Gas prices are once again inching up across the country, delivering a fresh blow to American drivers already shouldering higher price tags for new and used cars, rising maintenance and repair costs, and skyrocketing insurance premiums. Climbing oil prices are partially driving this increase, as recent sanctions imposed by President Donald Trump raised concerns over Russian and Iranian supplies and uncertainty continues in the Middle East as the fragile Israel-Hamas ceasefire starts showing signs of collapsing. The unexpected boost in inflation could dampen some of the business enthusiasm that arose after Trump’s election on promises to reduce regulation and cut taxes. Dow futures tumbled 400 points and all major markets are likely to sell off at the opening bell. Bond yields rose, a sign traders expect inflation and interest rates to remain high. 1
