“The U.S.A. that many will celebrate over the next couple of national holidays hardly exists anymore. That won’t stop the firecrackers and flags unfurling. The plastic patriotism that dumbs down future generations and purveys a cartoonish landscape of predators and ghouls posing as the good guys.”

Because of Trump's dismantling of USAID, 60,000 metric tons of food that were bound to serve the poorest kids on earth are now on the brink of rotting in America. Our anti-hunger groups are ready to spring into action. What say you, Mr. President?

Kind of thought refusing to release innocent people while simultaneously continuing to pardon guilty people might cause a bigger stir in the press.

The market is up today as Trump walks back his tariff threats against the EU. More market manipulation from Trump the transactionally transient.

America First = America Alone Unprecedented: the U.S. is the only country out of 184 to see a drop in international tourism this year. Everyone else is rebounding. We’re projected to lose $12.5 billion in spending—jobs, small businesses, entire communities will feel this.
