“During your first week of office you have instead focused on mass deportations and pardoning January 6 attackers,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren and 19 other lawmakers told the president in a letter.

Summary

Democratic lawmakers, led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, criticized Trump for failing to address rising food costs despite campaign promises to lower prices “immediately.”

In a letter, they accused Trump of focusing on mass deportations and January 6 pardons instead of tackling grocery inflation, which rose 1.8% in 2024, with egg prices up 36.8%.

Trump’s administration defended its actions, citing efforts to reduce inflation by cutting energy costs.

    Hey man, keep screeching about how emotionally buthurt you are and keep calling people liars. In the meantime, the rest of us are going to roll up our sleeves and get to work building. The boomer dems aren’t going to be around forever and we gotta move forward. This whole brooding in bitterness and defeatism is bullcrap.

      I’ve seen what you build. There’s a reason you have to oversell it as being second only to the New Deal.
