1/ Fed Chair Jay Powell refuses to cut interest rates—even with ample evidence supporting a cut.

That stubbornness is costing the U.S. economy BILLIONS. Even a mere 0.50% overshoot has major consequences.

Let’s BREAK IT DOWN 🧵

2/ Keeping the Fed Funds rate half a percentage point too high can cut GDP growth by 0.25–0.5% annually.

In a $28-trillion economy, that’s $70–140 billion in lost output EVERY YEAR.

Growth and wealth—GONE because of Powell’s overly tight policy.

3/ How about the debt?

Slower GDP means lower tax revenues.

A $70–140 billion GDP hit = $15–30 billion in lost tax receipts annually.

Over a decade: $150–300 billion more debt, thanks to higher deficits and interest.

1/ Before the word “tariff” became synonymous with President Trump, generations of American statesmen laid the foundation for the America First agenda of today.

Their ideas—rooted in sovereignty, security, and protection of American workers—embody the ongoing fight for American prosperity.

A THREAD 🧵

2/ Alexander Hamilton was the original architect of American economic nationalism.

In his "Report on Manufactures", he argued that tariffs were essential to defend U.S. industry and secure independence from Britain.

3/ Hamilton understood that political independence wasn’t enough.

The young American republic needed economic protection and system of fair trade to grow and survive.

🚨THREAD: @realDonaldTrump raised steel tariffs from 25% to 50% — a decisive move to protect American steel and our national security.

🧵Here’s why this action is ESSENTIAL.

2/ 🚨America’s steel industry is under siege.

The original 25% tariffs from 2018 helped, but Joe Biden turned them into Swiss cheese. 🧀

Now, global overcapacity is growing, dumped imports are flooding our market, and foreign producers are gaming the system.

3/ In 2018, when President Trump first imposed Section 232 tariffs, it sparked a STEEL REVIVAL.

It added over $20 billion in domestic investment, which included new capacity across rebar, wire rod, hot-rolled sheet, and more.

1/ 🚨The bond market and pundits are MISSING the mark on President Trump's One, Big, Beautiful Bill.

President Trump is changing the source of federal revenue altogether, taxing Americans LESS and foreign countries MORE. It's a win-win.

Let’s break it down. 🧵

2/ The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) claims President Trump’s bill will add $3.8 trillion to the national debt over a decade.

‼️But they’re wrong and here’s why…

3/ CBO fails to recognize how tax cuts, deregulation, and smart trade policy GROW the economy.

Just like in 2017, they’re not going deep enough.

1/ The One, Big, Beautiful Bill. 📜

It brings back the Trump tax policies that made America GROW — and locks them in for good.

Let’s break down how this bill delivers for American manufacturers 🧵

2/ Build in America? Get Rewarded. 🇺🇸

New factories built in the USA get enhanced expensing and tax relief.
Projected result:

300,000 new jobs

Wage BOOST

More Made in America across the board.

3/ 100% Expensing Returns 💯

Manufacturers that buy a machine write it off immediately.

Result? More factory investment. More jobs. Higher wages.

Rebuilding the industrial base — brick by brick.

Ever wonder why you don't see Ford Mustangs, Jeep Wranglers, or Chevy Silverados cruising through Paris, Rome, or Berlin?

It's not because Europeans don't love American cars.

It's because the European Union RIGGED the game🧵
