>> The White House is taking aim at Amazon, calling the e-commerce giant's reported plans to soon display how much tariffs are increasing prices next to products a "hostile and political" move. Amazon has since told multiple outlets, including POLITICO, that the change won't happen.

"I just got off the phone with the president about this, about Amazon's announcement. This is a hostile and political act by Amazon," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said during a briefing Tuesday. Punchbowl News reported Tuesday that Amazon was planning to soon display how much President Donald Trump's tariffs are adding to each of its products' prices.<<

It makes their gaslighting more difficult.

I was right.

Where are our resident freedom caucus folks on this violation of the 1st amendment? Bezos kissed the ring on Inauguration Day. Hope he decides that he doesn't like the mob telling him to be quiet.

Looks like MAGA got trolled on that one and swallowed another hoax.

But this admin clearly wants to deceive the American People.



I've been doing inventory of all the imported (china, etc) stuff I may need for the next year or so and buying/stocking up now if its something I will not want to go without.

Bezos folds again. Trump has castrated him in his quest to be a trillionaire. What a pussy.
