Wiley Nickel @wileynickel.com · 29/09/2026The midterms are a referendum on Trump. Higher prices, chaos every day, and a White House that only looks out for itself. If you've had enough, the ballot box is where you say it. What decides this is whether they actually show up and vote. Election Day is Tuesday, November 3rd. 0205

Wiley Nickel @wileynickel.com · 20/09/2026Trump's tariffs and his war against Iran have jacked up the price of just about everything.
