The White House won’t even try to explain Trump’s fictional inflation numbers | CNN Politics
The actual inflation numbers aren’t good for President Donald Trump and his party. So Trump has come up with something of a solution: just use fake inflation numbers.

The math isn't mathing.  The world spends more than three times as much on fossil fuel subsidies as it would cost to transition to clean economies for a safe climate and air.  The solutions are ready and the money is there. What’s needed now is action at scale: bit.ly/3UFnsYq #CleanAirDay

Interesting coincidence:
Based on reports tracking fossil fuel advertising, The New York Times has received the greatest amount of revenue from fossil fuel advertisers among major publications, totaling over $20 million between October 2020 and October 2023.This revenue is roughly twice what any other major news outlet earned from the industry during that period.Key Findings on Fossil Fuel AdvertisingTop Recipient: The New York Times' high revenue was largely driven by a partnership with Saudi Aramco, which spent $13 million on ads, alongside campaigns for ExxonMobil, according to reports from Drilled and DeSmog.Native Advertising (Advertorials): A significant portion of these advertisements are created by the newspapers' own marketing studios (e.g., T Brand Studio at The New York Times) and are designed to look like news articles.

The US Constitution gives Congress the power to “lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises” (Article I, Section 8), and requires that revenue-raising bills originate in the House of Representatives (Article I, Section 7). Tariffs are a form of duty, often experienced like a tax on imports.

The Abundance movement often points to environmental groups as the obstacles to building. But who actually files the lawsuits blocking projects? It’s not environmental groups. It’s been lawyered-up HOAs protecting property values all along. Regulation by litigation is the problem.
Bar chart titled “Who’s Really Blocking California Development?” showing the share of CEQA lawsuits by plaintiff type. HOAs and NIMBY groups account for the majority at 54%. Business and commercial plaintiffs file 20% of cases, government entities 13%, environmental groups 8%, tribal or cultural groups 4%, and labor unions 2%. The chart notes the analysis is based on 1,234 CEQA court opinions from 1973–2025 using CourtListener data, with HOAs/NIMBYs defined as homeowner associations, neighborhood groups, and ad hoc project-opposition groups.
