Fact Check-True:

Shapiro: He rose to some prominence by writing a book about growing up in Appalachia, where there are a whole lot of people who get SNAP. He made millions of dollars off telling their stories, and then he turned his damn back on those very people he likes to write about and claim as his own.

Trump Finally Meets A Problem His Lies Cannot Overcome: Rising Grocery Prices

“Grocery prices are way down,” the president has been saying, time after time after time after time, for months, including twice on Thursday and once again on Friday.

Statistics from the government he runs, however, belie that claim. Inflation for food items has been 3.1% since Trump declared his trade war against the rest of the world in early April, compared to 1.8% in Biden’s final year, according to a HuffPost analysis of Bureau of Labor Statistics data.

Trump’s tariffs — which are paid by American importers at ports of entry — have hit products from virtually every country, including those with which the United States has free trade agreements. Items like coffee, bananas, sugar and seafood have seen the most dramatic price increases thanks to tariffs.

WOLFERS: “.. I can’t tell you why the president lies, but I can tell you that everything he has said about prices being lower is a lie. .. I’m starting to think that he doesn’t actually care about the cost of living.”@justinwolfers.bsky.social @svdate.bsky.social www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-…

When even the New York Post is calling him out:

What’s the item?

Furniture

How has the price changed since before the pandemic?

The price of bedroom furniture rose 11% since February 2020, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The price of living room, kitchen and dining room furniture rose 25%.

Fox goes with real-world math over WH gaslight.

Note to The Gestapo:

Mamdani: "My message to ICE Agents… is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate the law, you must be held accountable." We need to see this same energy from Mayors and Governors across the country.

Not ‘My Kevin’ a Different Kevin May be Out of a Job in 2027:

FOX: So you would ask Speaker Johnson to recall the House? GOP REP. KEVIN KILEY: Not only would I, I've asked him to do it repeatedly. There's no justification. And honestly, it's Republican voters who should be most upset about this when they delivered a GOP majority and now that's being wasted
