The #TrumpAdmin claims much more #oil flows through the #StraitOfHormuz than commercial trackers verify.
US Energy Secretary Wright says an average 8 to 9 million barrels of crude moves through per day with #US help (one day, 15 went through!). However, commercial ship trackers' estimates range from ~2 to 6 million barrels a day.
Though some ships move through covertly, a large, persistent gap remains between #trump admin and commercial estimates.

More about the Trump Data Purge –
The #TrumpAdmin "has deleted or altered nearly 400 federal #datasets since taking office... according to a tracker updated Aug. 17 by dataindex.us, a group of #data policy experts, researchers & developers."
#Health datasets "account for about 40% of all changes," incl. "several #CDC surveys," that "dropped questions on gender identity following an executive order on gender ideology."

So I learned that the #TrumpAdmin made Washington DC streets into a Grand Prix-style racetrack earlier today and had Indy racecars zoom around 147 times (of course 47 because of #trump).
They made sure military planes and a bomber flew overhead (of course) and trump also flew over in his new plane (must be the one from Qatar).
All of this was supposedly to celebrate the nation's 250th anniversary.

Trump 2.0 has deleted or altered nearly 400 US datasets, endangering public health, education and more ~
Health data appears to be most affected by administration’s attempt to wipe findings that don’t align with its priorities, tracker shows

"The wife of a USS Lincoln sailor who jumped overboard says her husband told leadership he was struggling but it was brushed off. This comes amid reports of disturbing conditions on the aircraft vessel.
A Navy spokesperson told MS NOW they have not observed an increase in suicidal ideations on the ship."

"Karoline Leavitt thought she’d be the indispensable MAGA Blonde whom Trump would keep and protect. She promoted his lies, attacked his enemies, and even disfigured her face to his liking. But, in the end, no amount of sycophancy and loyalty is enough for a selfish, depraved vulgarian."

Ah ha —
I believe I have found the motive for the #trump admin's ending of Medicare Part D subsidies early:
A nudge towards privatization.
The admin favors privately-operated Medicare Advantage, and higher Medicare Part D premiums will likely push people towards Medicare Advantage.

@shansterable It is also interesting to note that higher Medicare Part D premiums will likely push people towards privately-operated Medicare Advantage, which the admin favors.

Note: Oz commented something to the effect of 'the premium increases won't be that bad'...
Well, they also aren't necessary. The admin doesn't *have* to end the subsidies early. It simply wants to.

The #TrumpAdmin's move to end Medicare Part D subsidies seems political* 🙄 & premiums will likely increase.
The subsidies were put into place by the bipartisan, Biden-era Inflation Reduction Act. CMS Director Oz called them a "bailout", saying they weren't needed since the admin is "stabilizing the market," lowering drug prices for #Medicare recipients w/ efforts like MFN (rel. to international trade) & getting recipients access to GLP-1s for $50/month.

The #TrumpAdmin is ending a subsidy that helps lower the cost of #Medicare prescription drug plans. It will now end at the end of 2026, a year earlier than originally planned.
The move is expected to raise monthly premiums for millions of Medicare Part D beneficiaries in 2027, though how much is yet to be seen. #MedicareD is not ending and broader Medicare prescription drug reforms like annual out-of-pocket caps and lower insulin costs will remain.

Trump is paying companies to stop their wind power projects.

The map contained an #AI watermark indicating it was made with OpenAI tools. 👀
It had:
• Nigeria (where #US currently has several hundred troops deployed) as landlocked in the Sahara Desert
• Mozambique, which is in southeastern Africa, relocated to the Horn of Africa
• Ivory Coast in West Africa placed on the other side of the continentThe State Dept blamed a staffer.

"I think this will help a lot with elections" —
#TrumpAdmin asks Supreme Court to allow new limits on mail ballots:
As ~"part of a high-stakes push by... #Trump & his allies to put fresh limits on voting ahead of pivotal #elections where control of the House and the Senate is at stake" ~
~"A divided (appeals court) panel... upheld a federal judge's block on the order, finding that it would 'sow confusion' and 'threaten disenfranchisement of many eligible #voters.'"

The reason behind Trump's current blanket #tariffs (supposed concern about forced labor) is completely 110% bogus and here's proof.
From the horse's mouth (as reported by CRS) back in February of this year:
"If the Supreme Court rules that other tariffs imposed by the second #Trump Administration are illegal, the Administration may increase its use of Section 301..."
(The #TrumpAdmin imposed current blanket #tariffs under Section 301)

Trump imposes forced labor duties (#tariffs) on 60 trading partners* ~
U.S. #Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said:
"Today's action will begin to correct what is both a human rights abuse and distortive trade practice to improve the welfare of workers everywhere."Wow what gall
#MyThoughts* There is a link to the notice from the Federal Register in this article. The #TrumpAdmin claims to have made 60 investigations.

Update:
NYT is saying that #trump is imposing blanket #tariffs on "over 80 countries," not 60 like Bloomberg had previously reported.

#MyThoughts –
The reasoning seems like an excuse to re-impose blanket tariffs because:1) It's unrealistic that the #TrumpAdmin investigated 60 countries' supply chains in depth in such a short amount of time, nevermind found forced labor in all of them.
2) When his blanket #tariffs were struck down by SCOTUS, #trump commented that his admin would figure another way to impose blanket tariffs.

Sure there can be fraud in all of these things, absolutely. But the #TrumpAdmin is casting an awfully wide net on very specific states (which happen to be blue) without presenting evidence of widespread fraud.

State & local health depts face critical staffing shortages from layoffs & hiring freezes, while #CDC "suffered a 'brain drain' of...expertise (from) #TrumpAdmin's efforts to take an axe to federal spending," losing ~1/4 of employees in 2025.

The #TrumpAdmin argued there is no #ConflictOfInterest since trump's investment accounts "are handled by third-party financial institutions."
#MyThoughts –
Nonsense. #Trump will still be earning revenue from his posts as he directly influences #trading #markets. He is also not divested from those investment accounts, even if they are handled by financial professionals. He knows what companies he invests in & could drive up those stocks accordingly with his posts.
