Congratulations, America! You just lived through the biggest tax hike since Reagan wore bronzer unironically. Trump’s 2025 tariffs are projected to increase federal revenue by 0.95% of GDP, enough to land them in the hall of fame next to wartime tax hikes—except this war is on your wallet.

In this episode, Max drops F-bombs and Lisa drops facts. We break down how tariffs masquerading as “patriotic policy” will actually cost the average U.S. household $2,100 in 2025, with after-tax income taking a sexy little -2.1% dip.

Spoiler alert: That’s not how you MAGA, folks.
