Democrats got the memo: Talk about affordability. But when it comes to housing, voters may not buy their solutions, writes @Erika_D_Smith (via @opinion) https://t.co/bSkXF6fjEq ...

We are now 348 days away from the midterms and President Trump has officially signed the bill to release the Epstein files. Trump announced the news on Truth Social just a few hours ago with a bill now signed into law. The Epstein issue has been kicked into the hands of the Justice Department. The law gives the DOJ 30 days to release the files. During a press conference today, Attorney General Pam Bondi said only that the DOJ will quote follow the law. She also appeared to tease quote new and additional inf ...

Gavin Newsom is jumping on the affordability bandwagon, writes @Erika_D_Smith. Only one problem: He hasn’t made it any cheaper to live in California (via @opinion) https://t.co/47AHMQKJj6 ...

So, while Epstein has haunted Trump all week, we are still just 10 days out from an election where voters, including some former Trump voters, went Democratic over prices in the economy. Today, Trump is actually responding with action, which is pretty interesting given how much rhetoric goes on in this administration. But he is tweaking tariffs on coffee, tea, oranges, these kind of everyday items, trying to at least bring food prices down, which is something people of course notice every week.The Times rep ...

Speaking of the economy, Vice President JD Vance sat down for an interview with Fox News that aired last night. And in it, he addressed two big issues for Americans, affordability and housing. >> I know that there are a lot of people out there, Sean, who are saying things are expensive.And we have to remember they're expensive because we inherited this terrible inflation crisis from the Biden administration. But you've already seen signs that things are getting better. The price of eggs has gone way down. T ...

[Music] Y Missy Ebewal and Susan Del Persio are both back with me. So Yissi um M Donnie, he was not exactly embraced at first by the political establishment. That's kind of an understatement actually, but now he appears to be the man of the hour, right.And he was treated as such uh at this retreat. He said in remarks at a party thrown by Governor Hokll um together in this room, I feel something that is all too rare in our politics, a united front. How does he harness that to get things done in his upcoming ...

But we begin this hour with a split screen. On one side, President Trump's version of reality and on the other, the American people's. This week, Trump tried to downplay voters concerns about affordability, a top issue that helped propel Democrats to big election wins on Tuesday.Instead, he's been focused on creating a new gilded age by handing out tax breaks to the ultra wealthy and turning the White House into his own personal palace. And according to the Daily Beast, f Friday night, he threw another extr ...

So right now, let's bring in Democratic Representative from California, Eric Swallwell. Congressman, good to see you, especially on a Saturday here. So, thanks.>> Senate Democrats unveiled their compromised deal to end this shutdown, ending the rather extending the ACA subsidies just for one year and saying they will vote on a clean CR. You heard me talking to Kevin and you know, the Republicans very quickly shot that down, repeating Obamacare tax credits are a non-starter. But with the Senate in session ri ...

With President Trump getting his wish to prolong the pain and uncertainty of the government shutdown for millions of desperate Americans last night, the United States Supreme Court temporarily granted the Trump administration's request to withhold SNAP food aid, pausing a federal judge's previous ruling ordering the administration to fund the aid immediately. Justice Kataji Brown Jackson, the emergency justice on duty, granted the pause to give an appeals court more time to rule on the case, which Justice J ...

So, uh, I don't want to hear about the affordability because right now we're much less. >> Okay. So, like I'm for real here, Steve, and I know we touched on it before.I don't want to hear about affordability. That's the whole ball game. Like the truth is whether you're the most economically vulnerable person in America or honestly the richest person in America, what do they vote on.What do we all vote on. Our pocketbook. And if it was economic despair that really helped Trump, what is your take on the curre ...
