The real human tragedy here is that thousands of White Americans (nearly all of them professing to be followers of Jesus) saw in Shiloh Hendrix someone who spoke for them, who embodied the hatred they harbor in their hearts. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/shiloh-hen...

Carney should just read this back, ask if he thinks it's helpful to negotiations, then walk out. Since trump thinks the US doesn't need Canada, why should Carney stay?

Capex intentions are at recessionary levels. So much for companies rushing to set up shop in America thanks to tariffs. Instead, it looks like companies are sitting on their hands, trying to figure out tariff impacts before they invest. #EconSky

I really wish reporters would stop saying that there is an effort by the Trump administration to combat antisemitism. It is quite the opposite. There is an effort to foment antisemitism. forward.com/fast-forward...

100 billionaire families spent $2.6 billion in the 2024 election. 70% of these donations went to Republicans. Now, Republicans in Congress are gearing up to slash essential programs to pay for another round of tax cuts for the rich. This is what oligarchy looks like.

It’s incredible that now the best case scenario is basically Trump engaging in a humiliating climb-down, but having already inflicted permanent damage and uncertainty that never be undone.

Yeah, I think there’s essentially no going back from the damage Trump has done. Even if he were removed tomorrow, America has proven it can be duped into electing a dangerously unstable person, and you can’t really make long term plans centered on an “ally” like that.

“By letting my wife and brother and lawyer and a dozen randos — plus every foreign power who’s hacked my phone — know exactly where, when and how our warfighters would be attacking, I was simply trying to make sure those warfighters were in the spotlight, which is what you want in a covert mission.”

I don't think people realize how big a deal Trump nuking the USA tourism industry is for budgets. So many cities rely on hotel taxes, port fees etc. Domestic tourism cannot make up the difference-- www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who is glad to see, in a Congress full of Republicans cowering in fear at the idea of trump's retaliation, Senators like Chris Van Hollen can still say FUCK YOU and stand up for the rule of law and due process. Well done, Senator.👏
