If your blood pressure meds are made in China (most are, along with a lot of other critical/essential pharmaceuticals) then there’s a 145% tariff about to be reduced 20% off the inflated price. So if pre-tariff price was $100, you’ll pay $196 instead of $245.

The fact that this line tracks party control of the White House so closely is an excellent argument for an Article I independent immigration court system.

A huge portion of this, from on the ground reports, is judges “pretermitting” asylum applications — denying them without allowing them the hearing they are entitled by law. The Trump admin told judges they could do this and they’re off to the races. I’ve heard infuriating stories of it so far.

It will be fascinating to watch everyone who acted like Biden was a socialist for lowering drug costs and stood by and watched as Republicans opposed him suddenly pretend this is a new idea from Trump.

If Joe Biden was taking intelligence briefings once every 10 days and routinely admitting he had no idea what was happening on major policy issues, there would not be enough room on the opinion pages of America's newspapers demanding he resign but Trump isn't held to that standard 🙃

In 1978, Congress gave federal workers the right to organize and bargain collectively, finding it in the public interest. Now Trump wants to end those labor rights for most of the federal workforce.

I wrote the definitive book on “continuity of government” and let me tell you: The idea of the US commander-in-chief flying on a plane from a foreign govt is a literal security nightmare. There’s a reason the US is the only country in the world that provides its leader his own helicopters overseas.

So many videos are circulating of ICE agents acting with cruelty and aggression. Behavior that eerily mirrors the “domestic terrorism” they claim to oppose. No one is forcing them to act this way; it’s a choice.

A quick history lesson for Gen Z and Gen Alpha. ICE is not an American institution. It was created in 2003 by the 1st GW Bush Administration (who was only there because SCOTUS stole the 2000 election). ICE was an overreaction to 9/11. And now it's trying to finish the job.
