Kamala Was RIGHT on Trump’s BAD ECONOMY | Congress NEEDS Age Limits | Eric Adams to SAUDI ARABIA?
🎙 Welcome back to The Josh Lafazan Show! I’m your host, Josh Lafazan. Every night, we break down the stories shaping our democracy, our economy, and our future. Tonight’s episode is PACKED — with five major stories exposing corruption, power games, and policies that keep putting elites ahead of working Americans.
1⃣ Kamala Was RIGHT About Trump’s Economic Plan
Vice President Kamala Harris warned us: Trump’s economic agenda would fuel inflation and risk a recession. Sixteen Nobel Prize–winning economists said the same. And now the evidence is here. Since Trump declared his so-called “Liberation Day,” America has lost 42,000 manufacturing jobs. Families are paying more for food, rent, and health care. Meanwhile, billionaires rake in tax breaks and corporations pocket profits from Trump’s tariffs — while the middle class gets crushed. Kamala saw this coming. And now we’re living it.
2⃣ America’s Age Problem in Politics
The oldest member of Congress — 88 years old — just announced they’re running for reelection. This sparks a real debate: should there be age limits in politics? The average American is 38, yet our leaders are often in their 70s and 80s. Airline pilots face mandatory retirement. Judges do too. Why not Congress? This isn’t about disrespecting elders. It’s about making sure new generations — with fresh ideas and lived experience — get real seats at the table.
3⃣ Trump’s Backroom Deal With Eric Adams & Andrew Cuomo?
Reports suggest Trump may appoint NYC Mayor Eric Adams as ambassador to Saudi Arabia. Why? To clear the field for disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo to make a comeback. That’s not diplomacy. That’s dealmaking — shuffling leaders like chess pieces to serve Trump’s interests. Adams gets shipped overseas, Cuomo resurfaces, and voters are left out of the equation. This is why Americans hate politics: power games in smoke-filled rooms instead of real service to the people.
4⃣ Trump Cancels Airline Passenger Protections
Remember the Biden-era rule requiring airlines to compensate travelers for delays and cancellations caused by the airlines themselves? Trump just killed it. Now, if your flight gets canceled, you’re stranded — no meal vouchers, no hotels, no reimbursement. This is a gift to airlines that already took billions in bailouts while leaving families stuck in airports. Trump’s message is clear: corporations win, passengers lose.
5⃣ Senator Caught Trading Stocks on the Senate Floor
In North Carolina, Republican State Senator Warren Daniel was literally caught trading stocks during a Senate session. Not after, not in between — during official business. This is corruption in plain sight. Lawmakers hold inside information and write laws that move markets. That’s why we need a total ban on stock trading for all elected officials. Serving the public should mean putting constituents first — not your portfolio.
✅ The Bottom Line
Tonight’s stories all connect:
Trump’s economy is hurting working families while helping the rich.
Congress is too old and too insulated from the lives of everyday Americans.
Trump plays shady power games with Cuomo and Adams.
Travelers lose protections as Trump sides with big corporations.
And senators enrich themselves while ignoring the people they serve.
It’s corruption, cronyism, and self-interest — and it’s exactly why we need accountability and reform.
