Last night Trump promised a $5000 check if they win. File that with: Your $2000 tariff rebate. Your $5000 Doge rebate. Savings from gas dropping below $2. Savings from energy bills cut in half. Savings from lower food prices. Ending the Ukraine war before he was inaugurated. So many promises... 🤪

Trump reveals his budget priorities: “Military protection” is primary – “Medicare, Medicaid, Day care?” – maybe the states can do those. Federal gov can’t. Thanks to MediasTouch for this video.
