Aged like milk in the sun.
No one other than (fairly stupid) partisans on the left thinks Trump is truly going to implement 20% tariffs on everything across the board.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
On March 4th, 2025, the Trump Administration enacted 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico for all products except for energy products like oil and electricity, which are tariffed at 10%.

This requirement forces districts to keep less than recommended reserves on hand, become ineligible for a AAA bond rating, and pay more in borrowing costs. That’s not property tax relief.
Property tax relief update:
The Hosue version of the budget provided “direct and much needed relief,” chair @BrianStewartOH said.
The budget requires that if a school district carries over more than 25% of their operating budget, that property tax refunds be issued.

Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

Which is a better investment, the education and future of Ohio’s children or subsidizing billionaires to build a sports stadium? I know my answer. #publiceducation
DEVELOPING: The Ohio House GOP has announced their version of state budget, dramatically slashing school spending from the expected funding formula.
It should've provided $666-800M for public schools. Repubs are giving $226M.

Whether you punch a clock or swipe a badge, work for tips or a salary, care for a child or for an aging parent, your work has dignity.
Today I’m launching the Dignity of Work Institute to create an economy where Americans’ work is valued, where they benefit from the wealth they create, and where everyone can afford a decent living.
Let’s make workers the winners in our economy. Follow @DOWInstitute

The US added only 151,000 jobs in February, lower than the forecast 170,000 jobs, while the unemployment rate rose to 4.1%.
Yet again, a Republican president is blowing the strong economy he inherited from a Democrat.

lol ok @PressSec
In one month under President Trump, the American economy is soaring back to greatness after the economic calamity left by Joe Biden. The manufacturing industry is already rebounding as there were 9,000 new auto jobs created — the most auto jobs added in 15 months! Under President Trump, the private sector is leading the way — 93% of the job gains in February were in the private sector. This is great news for American workers and families. The Trump Administration will continue to work hard to implement pro-growth policies and push Congress to enact the Trump Economic Agenda.

This is how dictators destroy free nations. They threaten those who speak against them with death. We cannot entrust our country and our freedom to a petty, vindictive, cruel, unstable man who wants to be a tyrant. #Womenwillnotbesilenced #VoteKamala

Mike Pence: “The American people deserve to know that President Trump and his advisers didn't just ask me to pause, they asked me to reject votes, to return votes, essentially to overturn the election.”
