Trump claims US trade deficit decreased by 78 percent due to tariffs​

According to independent analysis from FactCheck.org:

  • Through Trump’s first 10 months back in office, the cumulative U.S. trade deficit had fallen by only 3.9%, not 78%.

  • Trump’s “78% reduction” claim was based on comparing one unusually high monthly deficit to a later lower monthly deficit — a method economists say is misleading because monthly trade data is highly volatile.

Republicans issue warning over ballooning US debt​

Republicans in Congress are sounding the alarm over the country’s rapidly increasing national debt.

On Wednesday, the U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee (JEC) released a statement calling to attention the “unsustainable” and “immoral” levels piling up under successive governments, and said this was “threatening the economic future of our children and grandchildren.”

“We continue to hit new record highs for our national debt, exacerbating an already economic threat our nation faces,” said Arizona Representative and JEC Chairman David Schweikert. “In this fiscal year alone, we have added more than $1 trillion, bringing the total to $38.647 trillion.”
 

US trade deficit widens sharply in December; goods trade gap highest on record in 2025​

WASHINGTON, Feb 19 (Reuters) - The U.S. trade deficit widened sharply in December amid a surge in imports, and the goods shortfall in 2025 was the highest on record despite President Donald Trump's tariffs on foreign manufactured merchandise.

The trade gap ballooned 32.6% to $70.3 billion, the Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis and Census Bureau said on Thursday. Economists polled by Reuters forecast the trade deficit would contract to $55.5 billion. The trade deficit narrowed 0.2% to $901.5 billion in 2025. The goods trade gap widened 2.1% to an all-time high of $1.24 trillion.

Marjorie Taylor Greene launches ruthless attack on Trump ahead of his Georgia trip​

“If you had put America FIRST from the start, instead of your rich donor class and foreign policy, you wouldn’t have to strategize on how to gaslight Americans,”

On Epstein
“If you had not called the Epstein files a hoax and treated the Epstein survivors (rape and trafficking victims) like they didn’t exist and if you would release all the files and put your rich powerful friends in prison then Americans might actually listen to your ‘messaging,'”

“stop the bullying, harassment, and name calling.”
“It’s immature, childish, and turning so many people away. Real leaders don’t act this way and it’s a horrible example set on the world’s stage. This isn’t the behavior we want to teach our children.”

“Deliver real results for the regular American people because respect is earned not given,”

On Healthcare

“Approximately 75,000 households in my former district had their health insurance double or more on January 1st of this year because the ACA tax credits expired and Republicans have absolutely failed to fix our health insurance system that was destroyed by Obamacare,”

“Many dropped their policies and no longer have health insurance,” . “And that’s on top of EVERYONE ELSE who complains DAILY about the absurdly high cost of health insurance!!!”

billionaires running the White House, the Trump administration, and Congress aren’t affected by the high health insurance premiums, noting that all of them have “very nice affordable government health insurance plans.”

“Trump RX doesn’t fix this so that’s not your messaging answer,” . “A Truth Social Post or Trump video isn’t fixing this either.”
“Messaging won’t fix this,”

She then tore into Mike Johnson

Mike Johnson “claimed he had the Republican plan during the 8 week shutdown in the fall, then carried on and has done nothing proving he lied once again.”

Trump admits he hoped to get paid for 'Board of Peace'. Claims Marco Rubio named the building The Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace after him in secret surprise​


President Donald Trump opened his first Board of Peace meeting by admitting he expected to be personally paid.

Speaking on Thursday from the recently-named Donald J. Trump U.S. Institute of Peace, the president insisted that world leaders, such as Pope Leo XIII, would eventually accept his invitation to join the group.

"I believe it's the most consequential board, certainly in terms of power, and in terms of prestige, there's never been anything close," Trump said. "Almost everybody's accepted, and the ones that haven't will be. Some are playing a little cute. It doesn't work. You can't play cute with me. They're playing a little bit, but they're all joining."

"A few that we really don't want because they're trouble, take care of them," he continued.

Trump went on to claim that Secretary of State Marco Rubio had secretly named the building after him.

"This building was built for peace, and nobody knew what to name it," he recalled. "And then Marco named it after me. I had nothing to do with it. I swear I didn't. I swear, I had no idea."


"They said, there's a surprise coming. I didn't know that surprise," he added. "I thought they were going to give me a lot of money or something, maybe cash. You could always use some extra cash."

"That was Marco and JD and a group got together, and they did that, and I just thought it was very nice."
