"Thanks to today's digital economy, small business owners can reach customers worldwide with a click. E-commerce sales are expected to top $6.42 trillion this year, yet future growth depends on stable, pro-growth trade policies. Tariffs can help when targeted, but the broad, unpredictable tariffs of this year have hurt small businesses like mine forcing delays, unstable supply chains and price increases for loyal customers."
"Donald Trump just fired all six members of the Commission of Fine Arts, the agency responsible for reviewing Trump's D.C. projects. Trump demolished the East Wing before receiving the necessary approvals for his ballroom. He is not a king. It has been said that the White House is the people's house and presidents are merely temporary residents. Trump doesn't get it."

Separately, the dismissal of the Commission of Fine Arts and demolition of the East Wing without approvals exemplify concerns about unchecked executive actions and weakened institutional checks.
