This kind of juvenile, erratic, mean-spirited behavior by President Trump is unproductive.\n\n\u201cThis isn\u2019t going to lower costs, it is going to waste tax dollars. President Trump\u2019s tariff tax regime is doing real economic damage to American families and businesses and forcing them to pay higher prices.\n\n\u201cInstead of renaming bodies of water, President Trump needs to start focusing on lowering costs, strengthening the economy, expanding opportunity, and ending his war of choice with Iran.\n\n\u201cPresident Trump is alienating key allies and stoking animosity. He is needlessly raising prices and imposing avoidable economic hardship on Americans because he can\u2019t focus on anything other than himself.\u201d", 1, "2026-08-28T17:11:49Z", "2026-08-28T17:13:14Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.reed.senate.gov/news/releases/reed-statement-on-trumps-childish-order-to-rename-lake-ontario"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5714119654148817, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
