Congratulations Mr. Lutnick 🙌🥳🥳
Mr. Lutnick, pls add VAT and excise tax to the reprocitical tarifs. They charge us those taxes on the border, not on each transaction as they claim.

You know were always hearing about the fraud and the corruption done by liberal Democrats its one thing to find it out but when is something gonna be done about it because unless something is done about it what's the reason to even expose it and I'm not seeing much of anything being done about anything beside sure the border is being fixed and what happened to all these raids being done by Tom Homan and ice supposedly removing all illegals from our country but hmm even that's slowed down
Lutnick is amazing
Consumer sovereignty is key to America's great economic revival, and President Trump knows that.
MAGA
Go Trump !🎉
Howard is one cool cat
THANK YOU HOWARD!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The “greatest” country on earth ? That’s correct if he means for billionairs !
I love Jesse the way he motivates the person he is speaking to…keep going Jessie
The U.S. was like a Mardi Gras float rolling down Canal Street throwing out dollar bills under President Josef Robinette Biden. Trump said "Nah bree, lets save that money and put some new rims and some hips and a grill on this p.o.s.". Everybody please GTF out of the way and let him put some new gear on the float, Mardis Gras is almost here.
I can't wait, i just want to go buy things, lol.
Elon claims they've discovered trillions of fraud/waste (according to Elon) So where's the money?? Did they give it to OMB for verification? Has OMB notified Congress and allocated the funds back into the Treasury?? We're just supposed to believe the richest man in the world, and don't dare ask any questions. They know if you start asking questions, his (Trump) supporters will gang up on you with this us versus them thing. This is exactly what they want, and we give it to them.
It's only one way for them to accurately find "waste," "fraud," or "questionable payments." It's called an audit. Audits take months, not days!! Even if he did a "computer forensic audit" it would've taken a minimum of 3 weeks. It only took Elon a few days. He didn't audit anything.
He found accounts "he" thought were questionable and froze them. That simple. So, what's really going on?
According to Henrietta Treyz, Director of Economic Policy Research at Veda Partners, who's been investigating this matter, since Trumps 1st massive tax cut in 2017, is reporting that the Republican House & Senate are writing the budget.
Within this budget is a proposed tax cut of $4.5 trillion dollars for the wealthiest earners in America, and will succeed Trumps 2017 tax cut that expires in December of 2025.
None of the tax breaks Trump promised such as no-taxes on tips, or Social Security to people making under $300,000 dollars a year are in the budget. What they are doing, is laying of hundreds of thousands of federal workers, and shutting down social services programs to pay for it. The monies they're using to fund this massive Bill will come from tariffs, Doge, and Medicaid cuts.
These people are crooks and lie to us everyday on TV with a straight face.
Politics is so juicy since January 20, I'm loving it!🇺🇸💪🏼
It's so wonderful to see people who have a heart for one another. So sick of all people being portrayed as lovers of themselves. Grateful for President Trump and his awesome, on fire choices!!
The only "i have made enough money" politician💪💪🇺🇲🇺🇲
To break it down to those who are not getting it, Trump is planning to terminate income tax.
This guy has to be a great motivational speaker.
Lies …. they just firing good people
MOTIVATIONAL this morning 😁🙌🙏
Good luck Howard Lutnick!
So happy for the American people! Congratulations Howard Lutnick.
NO DEFICIT AND NO TAXES THANKS BE TO GOD FOR TRUMP AND ALL HIS ADMINISTRATION. Go Howard Lutnick, we support you sir!
They are on kickback plsnet
I notice you guys amplify a lot of wars, just like the democrats. If we can sanction fake news studios, that would generate a lot of world peace.
These are the people America needed! People better keep on voting for America First personnel for all of these growth & wealth to sustain beyond the futures!
Praise God! After enduring numerous challenges, I'm now a proud homeowner, blessed with an incredible $155,000 monthly income. God's faithfulness has restored my family's happiness and prosperity, fulfilling His promises.
Everything is falling into place, and I'm grateful for His unwavering love and provision. God bless America!
Great Secretarys and Cabinet. Thank You for Your Public Service to Our Country.
KEEP THE MONEY AND PAY DOWN THE DEBT.
my MIchigan congress members Peters, Slotkin and Scholten, all are democrats and none are supportive of the fraud being exposed against the American taxpayer, they are only wailing about those doing the exposing. American voters, who are the best, will vote 'em out of office.
I was forced to pay in to SS and Medicare. They are not entitlements. Get RID of the income tax.
The Trump Republicans are going to be in power for a long, long time. Long live DJT!
Congress makes appropriation decisions. Not Elon Musk. This is America and we are supposed to follow our Constitution. Tariffs are collected by US Customs and Border Patrol which is a part of the Deportment of Homeland Security. You can’t invent something that already exists. You can rename it though- but please just be honest.
Lutnick ❤
Get rid of IRS? Is that what he said?
I love love Elon too. Love Howard enthusiasm too because that’s I’m every single day. Doing the happy dance
What does he mean by ”You know social security is wrong, you know medicare and medicaid are wrong"??
It's been bad new every day forever, and suddenly it's great news every day! God Bless America!
As of the fourth quarter of 2024, the total credit card debt in the US reached a record-breaking $1.211 trillion, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The stark contrast between the Federal Reserve's 4% lending rate to banks and the 29% interest rates banks charge consumers raises serious questions about fairness in the financial system. This disparity hampers consumers' ability to purchase goods, which directly impacts the real economy by reducing demand for products and services that create jobs. If this consumption cycle breaks down due to excessive interest rates, both the real economy and eventually the banking sector itself could face significant challenges, potentially leading to collapse of an unsustainable system driven by short-term profit seeking. Next time ask THEM this question. I'm addressing journalists. Stop asking childish questions.
The pipeline initiative undeniably has merit. However, we should delve deeper to understand its fundamental implications and underlying issues rather than just accepting its surface-level benefits.👇
