“During your first week of office you have instead focused on mass deportations and pardoning January 6 attackers,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren and 19 other lawmakers told the president in a letter.

Summary

Democratic lawmakers, led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, criticized Trump for failing to address rising food costs despite campaign promises to lower prices “immediately.”

In a letter, they accused Trump of focusing on mass deportations and January 6 pardons instead of tackling grocery inflation, which rose 1.8% in 2024, with egg prices up 36.8%.

Trump’s administration defended its actions, citing efforts to reduce inflation by cutting energy costs.

    I think he’s such a narcissist that he doesn’t know. Or convinces himself this is righteous attention. We need to take a play out of their playbook and not care. Keep repeating. Make it ruthless.

      What? Saying mean things about Trump to his face is not even close to how ruthless we ought to be. Its not even on the same planet. I promise you, he’s had people call him out to his face for the past 10 years. That wont help.
