Our bread distributions stopped both in the North and the South. This video is one of our last bread distributions but now we can no longer find high quality flour in the markets. Donate here: We also do rice distributions but prices for that rose today by an additional 12.5% as the traders are only accepting cash. This means the plate of rice that was $10.4 for 22.5% commission is now $11.35 for 35%. Price increases won’t stop us and we’ll continue to negotiate and find the best prices in the market. Doctors, nurses, civil servants, teachers are all fainting and getting dizzy due to malnutrition. Borders NEED to open as people are dieing from malnutrition everyday. Donate to the Eid campaign which is zakat eligible so that we can increase our food distributions: Other ways to donate include: (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "food") (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "food")

Testimony directly from the ordinary farmer. A Nigerian who says it as it is. From Singer Market. Another major food market. Prices are coming down as farmers return to farms due to improved security. Please hear it from MALLAM Adamu. President Tinubu is playing his part. "My name is Alhaji Adamu Abdullahi Albasu, the Kwankwasiyya PRO of Singa Market. I am here to inform the people of Kano and the entire nation about the current state of business. Alhamdulillah, despite the approaching Ramadan, the prices of essential goods—such as sugar, spaghetti, rice, flour, and others—are decreasing in the entire market. It is important to clarify that traders in Singa Market do not sell in small quantities; rather, it is the small retailers, bread industry owners, and corner shop owners who do. Unfortunately, many of these shop owners have refused to inform their customers about the price reductions. Instead, they maintain high prices and shift the blame to Singa Market traders. We want the public to know that, *wallahi*, prices are genuinely dropping. However, the bread industry continues to maintain its previous high prices despite the decrease in the cost of ingredients like flour.

Just as I promised, Oil Prices are plummeting FAST, and Gas Prices at the pump are dropping too, but not as fast as they should be. As we approach America’s 250th Birthday, I am pleased to announce that a VERY smart Retailer, located throughout the Northeast, is stepping up, and wishing the People of Philadelphia a “Happy Birthday!” On July 3rd, the Freedom Fuel Network will be lowering gas prices at 25 “FREEDOM FUEL” Stations across the Greater Philadelphia Area. This Retailer is taking the lead, and others should follow. They are doing this because they love the U.S.A. We are proud to celebrate America’s 250th Birthday in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Birthplace of our very special, one-of-a-kind Declaration of Independence, and where I won BIG in the Presidential Election! America has never been stronger than it is now, and Gas Prices will soon be back to the Record Low Prices Americans enjoyed at the pump before our very successful “excursion” in Iran.

🚨 REPORTER: What's your message to young voters who voted Trump for no new wars and lower gas prices, but don't feel he's governing as expected? KAROLINE LEAVITT: "President Trump is doing this for you." "He's doing this for young people so that we are no longer threatened by a rogue terrorist regime in the Middle East that seeks to kill the brave men and women who serve in our country in the Middle East." "As for the temporary short-term fluctuation in gas prices, the President has said once these combat operations are over, this administration is going to continue to unleash American energy dominance." "We're continuing to do that every day, and we're going to see prices at the pump go back down just as we have over the past year because of this President." "And don't think for one second if that the Democrats had their way, gas prices would be as they were under the previous administration, the Biden administration, record highs." "This President is keeping them as low as he can during this short-term combat operation, and they're going to go right back down when this is over."

Trump’s approval rating is 34%. Let that number sink in. Lower than Jimmy Carter at his lowest point. As low as Herbert Hoover in the middle of the Great Depression before he got ousted. He campaigned on ending wars in the Middle East. We have a new war in the Middle East. He campaigned on lowering prices. Prices are up across the board: energy, tariffs, everything. And the same people who were with him when he said he wouldn’t do it are still with him now that he’s doing it. Here’s the real question: Does he care about any of this? I would submit to everybody — he does not. He’s entered the nihilistic stage of his political career. The polls don’t matter. The people don’t matter. The consequences don’t matter. That is the most dangerous version of this man. And that’s exactly where we are.

🚨 FAST FOOD BROKE AMERICA - AND THEY’D RATHER LET THEIR STORES DIE THAN LOWER PRICES A guy breaks down exactly why so many fast food chains are collapsing - and it’s not the economy. It’s because they jacked prices sky-high… and refused to bring them back down. He says: • “Me and my son went to Chipotle - $52.64 for TWO bowls and TWO drinks.” • “Denny’s was over $60 for breakfast. At DENNY’S.” • “Fast food is more expensive than sit-down restaurants now.” • “Chili’s gives you a full lunch for $9.99. Fast food can’t do that?” • “These places squeezed customers dry… and now they’re shocked people stopped going.” He claims stores would literally go out of business before admitting they overpriced everything and that’s exactly what’s happening: closures, layoffs, bankruptcies, empty dining rooms. Meanwhile the places that lowered prices (Chili’s, BJ’s, Red Lobster happy hour) are PACKED. The wild part? He’s not wrong. People are avoiding fast food altogether - not because they want to… but because it’s cheaper to go anywhere else. Be honest - what was the ONE fast food bill that finally made you say “yeah I’m done”?

TRUMP: "44% down, milk. 44% down." ROLLINS: "Eggs are way down, milk is way down. This is just since we took office. Fresh whole chicken is down 2 percent, cheeses down, tomatoes are down, butter is down and eggs of course our way down and potatoes are down almost 3 percent, fresh fruit down almost 3% this is just the beginning and as we continue to bring the cost of farming down and the cost down and open up the market and support our farmers we will see even more affordability moving forward."

BUA Chairman, Abdul Samad Rabiu, yesterday, visited the State House where he commended President Bola Tinubu’s bold reforms for laying the foundation of a stronger economy and better future for Nigerians. He noted that BUA has played its part in helping reduce food prices with Rice prices down from ₦100,000 to ₦50,000 per bag while flour, pasta, semolina & other staples have followed the same positive trend. On the economy, Rabiu stated that the naira is trading below ₦1,500/$ and expected to strengthen further, businesses no longer rely on CBN for FX and companies can now source foreign exchange independently. “These are all positives,” Rabiu said. “The bold reforms and decisive policies of President Tinubu are creating stability, easing business operations, and bringing real relief to Nigerians.” .Bola Ahmed Tinubu

From 2021–2024, inflation under Biden peaked at 8% in June 2022 and stayed above 5% for two straight years. By the end of his term, overall prices were about 17% higher than in 2020. Mortgage rates rose from around 3% in 2020 to more than 7% in 2023, which nearly doubled the average monthly payment on a new home. Groceries increased by 20–25%, gas prices topped $5 per gallon in many places, and household savings dropped from $2.3 trillion in 2021 to under $400 billion by 2024. During this time, wages grew about 4% a year, but because prices rose faster, real earnings fell for more than two years. In 2025, inflation has slowed to 2.9%, close to the Federal Reserve’s target. Wages are rising 3.5–4%, now ahead of inflation. The unemployment rate is 4.3%, which remains low by historical standards, and GDP is projected to grow about 1.9% this year. The S&P 500 is up about 15% year-to-date, consumer confidence has improved from 2022 lows, and energy prices are below their 2022 peak. Prices for food, housing, and fuel are still higher than before 2020, but the pace of increases has stabilized. So yeah, I’d say the economy’s on the right track under President Trump.

Prior to WWII, the USA produced more lamb in our country than we could consume - we were an exporter of lamb. Today, we import over 80% of the lamb consumed. Beef imports grew 24% in 2024 as compared to 2023. Beef prices remain at record highs, while the cattle population remains at record lows. The United States of America is now importing more beef than we are exporting. We fear the same that is currently true for lamb imports/exports will soon be the reality for beef. Food Security should have the support and attention from both sides of the isle. If we cannot feed our people, what else can we do?

Disappointments surround us from all sides. We feel broken.. But we will definitely come back from under the rubble.. We in the north Gaza cling to the land like the roots of trees clinging to the soil. There is no wind that can uproot people who want to remain in their place. We are not just numbers.... We have a case. But there is no justice in this world.. My friends and loved ones.. Based on your advice, I decided to buy cat food and not wait. But I decided not to buy for a very long time for fear of wasting money. I also want to buy now so that I do not feel regret if a ceasefire occurs. Everyone knows that we have to buy from the black market, and unfortunately the prices are very ridiculous. So I will buy enough to last 3 months.. I will try to do my best to find food for cats, but if I cannot, the alternative option will be to use canned human food... I already have enough cat food to last until the end of December. But I want to buy it now because canned meat is available now.. I also mix bread with cat food to make it last longer...as shown in the video below I had a beautiful shelter before the war.. it was completely destroyed.. It had more than 60 cats. There are now about 25 cats left, and there are some cats nearby who find love and food, so they come to eat with the cats in the shelter. I would be very grateful for your support at the following link You can donate via PayPal There are days left until the end of 2024. It has been a year full of pain, patience, pain, fear, hunger, humiliation, oppression and suffering. I don't want this year to end with cats suffering as we do. Your support will help save cats from starvation I am very grateful to everyone who supports me morally and financially, and to everyone who retweets. Thank you all, friends

Moses Kuria: Let us ask ourselves one question: Why is Mt Kenya underperforming on this voter registration? Because they have no horse in the race. In Kibaki and Uhuru, we had a driver. In Riggy G in 2022, we had a feeling of a co-owner/conductor. There are some people in Mt Kenya, they are not owners and conductors; their work is to bring people to the matatus, in Kikuyu they are called ‘kamagiras’. There is a whole big perception in the Mt Kenya region that we are ‘kamagiras’, we are not going to be drivers or conductors. As of now, the perception is that Riggy G is a ‘kamagira’ that he is going to jaza the vehicle for the Kalonzos of this world and Matiang’i. The people of Mt Kenya know very well that Rigathi will not be on the ballot #JKLive

Tinubu & Atiku Pressured Me to Leave Peter Obi But I Refused – Isa El-Buba This video was in 2023 before the election and when I watched this video again, two things came to my mind. 1. The hypocrisy on the side of Atiku and Tinubu's camp. Remember how they were dismissing us back then that we don't have structure and that we were just on social media but after saying all of that they would secretly be going after Obi's supporters. So they actually knew that Obi was going to win the election. 2. Secondly, I also realised that they are doing the same thing now. They are bringing up false narratives like the situation is no longer the same. Obi's support base was just the church. They are still dismissing Obi's chances as they did in 2023 which tells me that Obi will still win as he did in 2023. The lesson here for us Obidients is to ignore their narratives and focus on our work of promoting Peter Obi.

Van Hollen: Now, we know the state of our Union. We know it is under attack from a lawless president who is shredding our Constitution and attacking our democracy. A president whose private ICE army kills Americans and then calls the victims “domestic terrorists.” That is what Donald Trump and his administration said. We are here because we know our country is being robbed by the most corrupt president in American history — one who is exploiting the Oval Office to enrich himself, his family, and his billionaire buddies. A president who continues to hide portions of the Epstein files from both survivors and the American people. When are they going to release the files? A president who wants to erase our history. Are we going to let him erase America’s history? A president who promised that on day one he would bring down costs — but ever since he was sworn in, prices have gone up on the American people, even as he refuses to extend tax cuts and tax credits that help families afford their health care. We have a president who seeks not to build a more perfect union, but to tear it down. A president who said he would stop wars — but instead is responsible for war crimes and, as we speak, is threatening more wars. We are gathered here because we know we cannot pretend that any of this is normal. We will not — and must not — pretend this is business as usual. We must get in the way of Donald Trump’s march toward fascism. We cannot let our country go down that road. What Donald Trump wants to do is what all bullies do — what all dictators do. He wants to intimidate us. He wants us to sit obediently and quietly while he lies and lies and lies to the American people.

We have a president who seeks not to build a more perfect union, but to tear it down. A president who said he would stop wars — but instead is responsible for war crimes and, as we speak, is threatening more wars. We are gathered here because we know we cannot pretend that any of this is normal. We will not — and must not — pretend this is business as usual. We must get in the way of Donald Trump’s march toward fascism. We cannot let our country go down that road. What Donald Trump wants to do is what all bullies do — what all dictators do. He wants to intimidate us. He wants us to sit obediently and quietly while he lies and lies and lies to the American people.

Buttigieg: Usually you're trying to fight those kinds of price effects that consumers are facing, not doing what the Trump administration is doing, which is actively causing them. Vladimir Putin launched a war. The result was that there were supply shocks and oil went up, and then we all did everything that we could in the administration, and all of us as Americans, did what we could to deal with that. Here you have a very different situation. The president launched a war of choice, and now we're all dealing with the consequences and the people who are paying the heaviest price, of course, are the service members, many of whom have given their lives, over 200 have reportedly been injured. But also every American is paying the price. Mortgage rates are going up because of this war. Grocery prices are going to go up because of this war. And of course, the price of gas is already way up because of Donald Trump's war.

Cook: Based on the available data for September, it is estimated that the PCE price index rose 2.8% in the 12 months ending in September—significantly above the 2% target. Core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy categories, was also estimated at 2.8%. Both of these readings are as high or higher than those from a year earlier, propped up by an increase in tariff-affected goods prices. My outreach to business leaders suggests that the pass-through of tariffs to consumer prices is not yet complete. Many firms have adopted a strategy of running down inventories purchased at lower price levels before raising prices. Others have reported waiting until tariff uncertainty is resolved before passing increases on to consumers. As new car models, clothing lines, and other products enter the market, that process will continue to provide firms with opportunities to reset prices. As such, I expect inflation to remain elevated over the next year.

Mikie Sherrill on Lara Trump’s claim that prices are coming down: I think in New Jersey we’d call that a barrage of shit. But I’ll tell you what’s going on here with tariffs. Chuck, a coffee shop owner, was telling me that a big burlap sack of beans that used to cost $2.50 now costs $7 — and as he put it, that’s because Trump got into some fight with the Brazilian president. So now he’s going to have to raise prices on everyone. Prices are not going down. In fact, we’re seeing them go up everywhere, and I think that trend is only going to continue. The jobs numbers have been bad. We lost about 10,000 jobs in New Jersey. And we’re a really resilient economy — so if that’s happening here, I can only imagine what it looks like in the rest of the country.

Vice President JD Vance on Chuck Schumer’s comments in Punchbowl saying “every day” the shutdown “gets better for” Democrats: “Chuck Schumer said this has been very good for us this morning about the shutdown. One of the things that we talked about before all the media came in and that all of us are going to work on for the rest of the day we've been working on for days, is how to make the shutdown as painless as possible on the American people. So, while Chuck Schumer brags about this being good, I think the President is right. It's not good for him politically as much as he might think that it is. It's causing real consequences for the American people.” “There's a low income food program — the WIC program — that my mom actually used when I was a baby, that program is about to be underfunded, and it's about to get cut off because Chuck Schumer won't open the government. We have troops — the Secretary of War mentioned how well we're doing on recruitment. We're trying to figure out how to pay our troops, because Chuck Schumer is shutting down the U.S. government. There are veterans benefits that are going to suffer.” “There are Americans that are going to suffer because Chuck Schumer refuses to — to do his job. So, while we're all celebrating this incredible success that we've had on the world stage, the — the country could be doing so much better if Chuck Schumer did his job and opened the government. Every single Republican except for Rand Paul has voted to open the government. A few moderate Democrats, to their credit, have voted with us to open the government. We just need five more Democrats to come to their senses and let the people's government serve the American people. I hope that they'll do that.”
