Трамп повторяет ложь о социальном обеспечении, чтобы уничтожить программу
Дональд Трамп теперь открыто повторяет ту же ложь Илона Маска и пресс-секретаря Кэролайн Ливитт о «массовых» масштабах мошенничества в системе социального обеспечения, хотя их собственный администратор программы заявил, что все это неправда. Причина, по которой Трамп присоединился к программе, заключается в том, что он пытается помочь республиканцам полностью уничтожить программу, которая отправит десятки миллионов людей в финансовую смертельную спираль, из которой они никогда не смогут выбраться.

цифры от Маска были совсем о другом. Информационным агентам Бакхеда надо не MSNBC цитировать, а читать в оригинале что написал Маск, и о чём.

Where are grocery prices hurting most? States with highest (and lowest) costs
Grocery prices were on the rise well before the national egg shortage. In the last five years, grocery prices have increased nearly 25%, according to the USDA.
But where in the country are consumers feeling the pinch the worst?
Personal finance website WalletHub analyzed the prices of 26 common grocery items in 50 states, then added the costs and compared them to the median household income to determine where people are spending the greatest percentage of their income on groceries:
Not everyone feels the impact of rising food prices equally, said David Ortega, a food economist and professor at Michigan State University.
"It is low-income households who are hit the hardest, as they spend a larger share of their disposable income on food," Ortega, who is not affiliated with the WalletHub survey, told USA TODAY. "These are the individuals who are having to make real adjustments in order to be able to put food on the table. Similarly, in states where median incomes are lower, grocery costs take up a greater portion of household budgets, making price increases more financially straining."
Although grocery inflation or the rate of price increases has moderated, prices remain high, Ortega said, and inflationary pressures persist due to factors like the ongoing impacts of bird flu on egg and poultry prices, extreme weather events affecting food production, and rising labor costs. There is also a great deal of uncertainty surrounding key policies of the Trump administration—such as tariffs and mass deportations—which could further drive-up food prices.

Investors are increasingly concerned about the U.S. economy, as statistics show continuing high inflation and a slowing economy, reported CNBC. Stocks hit new lows Friday as the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped over 700 points, the S&P 500 plunged by 1.7 percent, and the Nasdaq Composite fell 2 percent. Walmart shares also dropped 2.5 percent. CNBC reported that it was the worst day for the U.S. economy since President Donald Trump took office in January, with stockholders growing wary of rising tariffs and seemingly arbitrary policy changes. The economic data has pushed some investors into buying bonds, making yields fall. According to a consumer survey conducted by the University of Michigan, people are also worried about inflation. The survey found consumer sentiment fell 10 percent, with buyers showing concern as home sales fell by more than expected in January. A five-year inflation forecast also put inflation percentages at 3.5 percent, the highest since 1995. Investors are reportedly choosing “safer” options for their money, such as consumer staples, health care, and utilities, as the economy slows.
US natural gas prices surge as La Niña replaces El Niño
US natural gas prices have been on a tear recently, after collapsing to record lows in 2023. They have surged to $4.25/MMBtu in recent weeks, as the chart shows. As analyst John Kemp reports:
“U.S. gas futures prices have doubled in real terms over the last 11 months as surplus inventories have been eliminated by record gas consumption by generators, a colder winter, faster LNG exports and a downturn in production...”
