Instead of celebrating her products making their way into in Target and Walmart, Beth Benike is worried about keeping her business afloat. These tariffs are not just a number. They’re putting countless Minnesotan’s livelihoods at risk—but Trump will continue doing it to appease his rich friends.

"I'm paralyzed. I can't even make a decision right now.

CEO and founder of @BusyBabyMat, Beth Benike, tells @KateBolduan how her small business is struggling with the uncertainty of President Trump's global tariffs."

The U.S. economy shrank by 0.3% in first quarter of 2025, the first drop in three years as Trump's trade wars disrupt businesses.

U.S. economy shrinks 0.3% in first quarter as Trump trade wars disrupt business

The U.S. economy shrank 0.3% from January through March, first drop in three years. It was slowed by a surge in imports as companies in the United States tried to bring in foreign goods before President Donald Trump imposed massive tariffs.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s going to claim victory and his army of supporters will say “Art of the Deal” – but I call bullshit.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 30(source)

My take on what’s REALLY happening on these tariffs: He’s totally folding. He lost all his leverage. Americans are furious about the economy and blame his tariffs. He’s capitulating on China, he threw our allies under the bus… he knows he and his party are solely to blame.

Only took 100 days…

@metzgov Bryan Metzger: WH pooler notes that today is Trump's first domestic trip that does not involve a visit to one of his golf resorts since he took office in January.

She can’t walk in and give his interest groups a million dollars, so her business gets screwed because he doesn’t personally benefit from protecting her business.

Tina Smith@smith.senate.govApr 29(source)

I just talked to a Minnesotan whose business is in the toilet because of these tariffs, but unlike the tech bros and the big corporations, she doesn’t have a powerful lobbyist to get an exemption from Trump. She wasn’t one of the rich men sitting behind him at his inauguration.

WSJ: The S&P 500 just ended the day with its biggest loss in the first 100 days of a new presidential term since Nixon's in 1973.

1. Corporate America donates to Trump’s inauguration 2. Trump announces tariffs 3. Trump exempts the corporations that donated to his inaugural Corruption in plain sight.

In 100 days Donald Trump has FAILED and BETRAYED our country. He’s tearing up our Constitution, tearing down our economy and tearing apart our government — all to rig everything to serve the interests of his billionaire pals. We WILL NOT STOP FIGHTING for one second.

The Women, Peace and Security Act was signed into law by President Trump in 2017.

Trump literally gave Bezos a front row seat to his inauguration… Bezos had a better seat than members of the Cabinet.

Donald Trump is inaugurated, standing before billionaires Mark Zuckerberg (curly hair), Jeff Bezos (bald), and Elon Musk (thumbs up), at the U.S. Capitol Rotunda on January 20, 2025 in Washington, D.C.

REPORTER: Amazon will soon display a number next to the price of each product that shows how much the Trump tariffs are adding. Isn't that a perfect demonstration that it's the American consumer who is paying for these policies? LEAVITT: This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.

In DC but keeping an eye on the potential severe weather back home in Minnesota. Stay safe and make a plan in case a storm forms!

Understand what this is: If Kash Patel and Donald Trump don’t like a judge, they think they can arrest them. This is stunning — we must stand up to this blatant power grab. Republicans: How is this not a red line for you?

Hypocrisy at its worst.

In the hierarchy of terrible ideas, this one is pretty high up there. Whenever I’m traveling the state, whether it be the Northland, Greater Minnesota or the Metro, nowhere do I hear that we have too much funding for early childhood education. www.axios.com/2025/04/17/t...

White House plan would eliminate Head Start, make sweeping health cuts

A leaked plan shows programs like Head Start, some mental health funding and efforts to prevent teen pregnancy could soon end.

Minnesota: Your protests are making headlines! This was on Rachel Maddow last night. Keep it up — I’m with you all the way 💪👏

Out of their Social Security. Out of Medicare and Medicaid. Out of the Treasury. Out of the NIH. Out of the Postal Service. Out of it all. He’s already done so much harm to people, he needs to go.

Hundreds of thousands of letters and calls from Minnesotans into my office overwhelmingly show that people want Musk gone.
