The Great American Tariff Scam: What Trump is doing with his tariffs is enriching steel barons, asset strippers, and vulture investors — not giving a damn what actually happens on the shop floor. What he’s doing is an American tragedy, and it’s a con job. youtu.be/SEsDG-LOeRE

JOIN ME » THOM HARTMANN PROGRAM » THURS, JUNE 4 at 9 AM PST The Great American Tariff Scam: Starring Donald Trump as the Savior Who Sells You Out INFO: substack.com/home/post/p-...

It’s not just bad economics. It’s a calculated con that’s costing us jobs, factories, and our future… hartmannreport.com/p/the-great-...

As always clear and concise from Greg.

Steel employment is diving, not despite tariffs, but BECAUSE of Trump's tariffs. Let me explain some weird, weird facts: www.gregpalast.com/trump-is-tur...

Great explanation, thank you

Whoa! Neat counter intuitive twist. Tariffs allow domestic producers to jack prices up. Demand falls, production falls, employment falls but profits are great because owners avoid pesky things like wages.

This should be shared!

He did it again. Today, Trump doubled the tariff on steel and aluminum from 25% to 50%. And it’s the steelworkers who will pay with their jobs. Stay with me, and I’ll explain these weird, weird facts… www.gregpalast.com/trump-is-tur...

BREAKING: Jake Tapper once tried journalism. It didn’t go well. 🤣

@gregpalast.bsky.social is now offering this movie for free on YouTube! His films are always educational and disturbingly funny. If you liked "Vigilantes Inc., America's New Vote Suppression Hitmen", you'll like this one, too... youtu.be/0s2x5vPx7i4?...

Jake Tapper is a gossipmonger and a putz, not a journalist.

After fast-tracking white Afrikaners for entry into the US to protect them from a genocide that never happened, Trump has, at the same time, cut off Afghans who put their lives on the line to translate for our troops—in the middle of battles—and have been waiting FOR YEARS in camps for US entry.

I'm sure Hamas is celebrating now that its sponsor, the kingdom of Qatar, is giving Trump the Trojan Air Force One. Now Putin will have TWO buttons on his desk: NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION and AIR FORCE ONE-DELETE. 🤠 www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Hungry for The Hunger Games? The Department of Homeland Security is considering the creation of a television show in which migrants would compete for fast-tracked U.S. citizenship. By next year we will have a Trump-sponsored contest to see who gets a vaccine.  www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

This is why he “won”. 🌬️so sick of hearing how the democratic party failed. It didnt🌬️

Watch this on a big screen:

JIM CROW 2.0 Wow friends. I knew it was bad but I didn’t *really* know. (Don’t recommend watching it before bed though. Take regular breaks if you have high blood pressure, friends.) Republican Voter Fraud Won the 2024 Election. And PROJECTION. (The “he who smelt it, dealt it” Principle)

🚨🚨🚨🚨👇🏼👇🏼 WE MUST UNIFY AND MOVE FORWARD‼️

WE MUST UNIFY AND WALK THE BRIDGE TOGETHER ‼️🇺🇸

March, protest and vote as our votes are being removed. Donate if you can to fight this.

We cannot take progress for granted. 60 years after Bloody Sunday, I feel like we're marching backwards. With new laws allowing the return of Klan voter challenges, how do we defeat the forces that would watch democracy bleed to death and applaud? www.gregpalast.com/marching-bac...

@gregpalast.bsky.social is on the @karenhunter.bsky.social show. youtu.be/LixywcbYNhk?...

what @gregpalast.bsky.social's fab article suggests to me is that lifelong thieves Cleon and Donny used 2024 as a #DryRun and—if not stopped—will continue "perfecting the steal" for future elections bc there's ALWAYS a dry run. www.gregpalast.com/trump-execut...

Canada's PM Mark Carney should tell Trump that he demands America become Canada's 11th province. It would be a terrific deal: we get national health insurance and a head of state who isn't addicted to Adderall.
