How Republicans tricked Jasmine Crockett into running; US/EU Tech Fight; Trump in PA

Donald Trump takes his affordability message to Pennsylvania, Jasmine Crockett gets “astro-turfed” into a Senate race, the EU escalates its tech war on the United States — and now South America is copying Brussels’ anti-American regulatory playbook. Plus: major movement on health care in Congress and a loaded Woke Lightning Round featuring Randi Weingarten, Justice Jackson, the Chamber of Commerce, and Kamala Harris’s new Capitol bust.

🇺🇸 Trump in Pennsylvania: The Affordability Pitch
Trump doubles down on the message that resonates: Americans are hurting, the economy is not “awesome,” and the administration is pushing new ways to lower costs. Clips highlight the contrast between “we inherited a mess” and “we’re finding creative solutions.”

🧩 Jasmine Crockett Gets… Tricked?
A wild NOTUS report reveals Republicans allegedly helped manufacture Crockett’s polling surge — including:
• NRSC polling strategies
• Robocalls connecting high-propensity Democrats to Crockett’s office
• GOP-amplified surveys showing she could win
Crockett believed the hype — and launched a Senate run. Ryan Grim confirms key details.

🏥 Health Care: Urgency in Congress
Both chambers race to pass something:
• Subsidy expiration creating pressure
• Conservatives like Jim Jordan open to extensions with reform
• Senate Democrats demand a clean extension
• New push for health care price transparency, including a grassroots letter urging President Trump to act
• “Show Us Your Prices” campaign launches nationwide

🇪🇺 EU’s Anti-US Tech Crackdown — Now Spreading to South America
The EU fines X/Twitter €120 million for DSA violations — while simultaneously deepening ties with China.
Key points:
• EU now makes more from fining U.S. tech firms than European firms pay in taxes
• Brussels targets U.S. innovation while welcoming Chinese companies
• Latin America is now copying the EU model: digital service taxes, AI regulations, antitrust attacks on US firms
• China rushes in — Huawei now powers up to 70% of Latin America’s 4G networks
• Analysts warn of an “EU-style regulatory nightmare” aimed squarely at the United States
