Early Thursday morning, April 17, President Donald Trump angrily railed against U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell on his Truth Social platform. Trump posted, "The ECB is expected to cut interest rates for the 7th time, and yet, 'Too Late' Jerome Powell of the Fed, who is always TOO LATE AND WRONG, yesterday issued a report which was another, and typical, complete 'mess!' Oil prices are down, groceries (even eggs!) are down, and the USA is getting RICH ON TARIFFS.

Trump described Jan. 6, 2021 as "a day of love." Well, if one's idea of "ahimsa" is Pinochet, Stroessner, Trujillo, or the Hitler generals Trump idolizes, it was a MAGA lovefest. On Nov. 5, vote as if your life depends on it. Because it does. https://t.co/kNkjYvoI3Q
Philly has lost one of its major soul icons: Maze leader Frankie Beverly, who I once had the pleasure of interviewing. RIP. I'll definitely be blasting "Joy and Pain" and "Happy Feelings" tonight, along with "Golden Time of Day" and "Before I Let Go." https://t.co/fXgtMLCstZ
