Senate Banking just launched the Trumpflation Tracker. The affordability crisis is not a “hoax” like Donald Trump says. See for yourself how much more you’re paying because of Trump’s failed economic agenda
Trumpflation Tracker. Cumulative inflation since Dec. 2024: 5.2%, approximately $3,388 more for the average household. Real wage growth since start of Iran War: -0.7%. Wages aren’t keeping up with Trump’s inflation. 30-year mortgage rate up from 5.99% before the war to 7.6%, or $4,330 more per year for a typical household. Household debt, Q1 ’25 to Q2 ’26: +$56B. Families going into more debt just to get by. Total cost to American borrowers of Trump’s broken promise to cap credit card interest rates: $94.9B. Share of each extra dollar of income going to household debt: 52¢. Take-home income up $109/month since 2022; debt payments up $57. Cost of Living Basket Since Dec. 2024: Electricity +12.7%, approximately $222 more for the average household. Rent +5.1%, approximately $256 more. Gasoline +43.7%, approximately $758 more. Groceries +3.7%, approximately $211 more. Child Care +7.6%, approximately $852 more. Health Care +14.6%, approximately $929 more for average family coverage.

Trump's lapdog Bill Pulte is so worried about being held accountable for his sham accusations of mortgage fraud that he's firing the actual law enforcement personnel who investigate mortgage fraud. Like @cortezmasto.senate.gov said, he must answer for his abuses of power.

Do you know why I think every prisoner should get to vote in prison? Not only are prisoners counted in the census and are most affected by policies (check out prison gerrymandering), but also if you don't, regimes could simply round up 1,000s of dissidents and minorities to reshape the electorate
