When fascism comes to America it will present as a megachurch audience of prosperous people in formalwear cheering a white woman in a black gown as she uses Jackson Pollack's painting method to create a Hobby Lobby portrait of their beloved, sex pest billionaire president who's never read the Bible.

Makes me so sad. At least as American Millennial, there was a joke rivalry, but Canada were supposed to be our literal closest bro's in the world? The nicest people you could possibly meet. Like literally comically loving of Americans, you would NEVER do ANYTHING to hurt them. What have we done...

Anyone remember that cartoon they were filming (yes filming) at the beginning of Roger Rabbit?

Stocks are soaring because it's always great when someone just stops hitting you with a hammer. But when they stop, the next step is to take the hammer out of their hands. Congress needs to take back its tariff authority. And we need to keep saying it until it happens, in this Congress or the next.

As a 20 year communications professional I’d like to offer Democrats my most sophisticated advice: While Trump is punching himself in the nuts, you could choose to 1. Also punch him in the nuts; or 2. Punch yourself in the nuts. I strongly advise number 1.

A lot of very frustrating American political behavior is explained by reasoning something like this: A pathologically mentally unbalanced moron surely could not receive a major party presidential nomination, let alone win, twice. Therefore if he seems like one, it must all be a clever act.

Ok what’s going on here? Yields are going up which means bond prices are going down. Fewer buyers of the world’s safest asset. Normally when the economy slows, there’s a flight to safety, not away from it. Means the world may be abandoning America. We are flirting with a true crisis.

something I haven't seen yet: isn't a massive increase in the range of goods worth smuggling going to be a big boost to exactly the kind of cross-border organized crime the WH claims it wants to stop?

The discourse around tariffs has been “things will get more expensive” but I am here to tell you that I am knee deep in reporting on this subject and I strongly suspect that if super high tariffs endure, it will shift to *certain items cease to be available at any price*

For no reason, I am thinking of my grandmother's dad, who died during a shift at the factory 100 years ago. He was emaciated and so sick he couldn't speak, but he still had to go to work. They found him in the bathroom, "lying in an immense pool of blood which was welling from his mouth and nose."

„No reason to escalate while the damage grows organically.“ Interesting summary by Jakob Hanke Vela on the mood in Brussels regarding the Trump tariffs.

“A trillion comments have been wasted accusing the wrong people of Trump derangement syndrome. The real TDS afflicts those who keep seeing a rational actor, or an economic chess game, where none exists.” Me on Trump’s wrecking ball. www.ft.com/content/9f51...

"This isn’t just bad journalism. It’s a deliberate editorial choice that speaks volumes about how establishment media downplays collective action challenging power."

WHERE ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO FILE A HABEAS PETITION WHEN YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN RENDITIONED OUT OF THE COUNTRY?

submitted 56 days ago • 32 comments

In fact, it is offensively ridiculous to think that any but a handful of people disappeared by ICE will be able to file habeas corpus, because it relies on them having informed families with connections to available knowledgeable lawyers with time and resources to act instantly.
