The lies are coming faster and more desperately these days. Keep pressing, friends.

@georgetakei Does he not think people might notice that this is a lie the next time they go to a gas station or grocery store?! It's easy to lie about stuff the broad MAGA populace doesn't understand (like tariffs, immigrant labor, human rights), but such obvious things as gas and food prices?!

@georgetakei He just gave the global economy to China and China alone. No matter how this ends, China won, they are better off than they were yesterday with more trade alliances. Too bad the US is so racists against Chinese. What else can you call it? We should have stayed engaged and the US could have deemed critical companies and products that should be made in the US and just forced those business to keep it local. Talk about using a sledge hammer and irrational emotions.

@georgetakei But the problem is that most of the people who support Trump actually believe him.

@georgetakei He continues to speak as if he thinks that tariffs are paid by the exporting country. They aren't making us richer.

@georgetakei well, it comes from a president who just recently learned a new word: groceries.
So I think his confusion is expected?

It's true about gas prices. I used to only get $30 of gas in my tank but now I can get $50. 🤔

Note the lie, but fact-checking somebody who has no respect for the truth is a waste of time. Keep publicizing and fighting back against tarrifs, concentration camps, and dismantling of effective government programs.

Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, I'm gonna lie till the day I die
Can't help lovin' the man that I am...🙄

@georgetakei Never thought I'd see a Republican President cheering about how much tax he's collecting from Americans.

@georgetakei
He's probably about to send out an email to his supporters, to ask for more money.

@georgetakei A blatant lie. I have been shopping for a new refrigerator the last few days. According to my research, appliance prices have gone UP in the last month, even before tariffs kick in. More price hikes are expected (announced by mfrs) in May and July, and perhaps again in Q3 as new stock with tariffs attached is in stores.

@georgetakei comically obvious lies aside, "prices are down and also inflation is down" demonstrates (as if it were needed) how profoundly economically illiterate he is.
(It's a pleonasm, not a logical contradiction, nerds, that's the point I'm making)
A 𑐴𑐶𑐟𑐶 (hiti) is an ancient Newah urban water feature: a stepped, sunken courtyard with waterspouts and a central pool. These are fed through a remarkable network of pipes, reservoirs, and irrigation systems drawing water from mountain springs dozens of kilometres away. Every day, hundreds of people from the neighbourhood come to draw water, bathe, and exchange news. They are a unique and precious feature of Newa urban architecture through which neighbourhoods are created.
