If I were the PM of Canada or Mexico, I would impose export duties on anything that Trump exempts from his tariffs. Those exemptions are your guide to "what will cause Trump political pain."

I guess this Ethics Committee report on Matt Gaetz puts in context why he was the only vote against the 2017 Human Trafficking Bill... Because he was enjoying the ugly fruits of human trafficking with underage prostitutes. www.politifact.com/factchecks/2...

Happy to explain to why Trump wants Greenland. Greenland is huge and mostly ice. Trump is aware that climate change is real and believes Greenland will shortly become like Iceland (which, ironically, is mostly green space). Stealing Greenland would leave a Louisiana Purchase-style land-grab legacy.

Keeping the space station manned is not worth selling our security out to Elon musk. Cutoff space X from federal contracts unless they can Musk. This is a clear and present danger

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism. We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

It is imperative that DOJ dismiss all of its pending voting rights cases and withdraw from those in which it has intervened. The Biden administration should not hand over cases in which Dhillon can have DOJ switch sides and undermine voting rights. We are on our own from here.

Discussing blanket pardons draws us off of the real issue, the concern that Trump will pervert the criminal justice system & use DOJ as a political tool, which is forcing the Biden administration into these considerations. Don't forget why we're here.

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

The GOP is not a political party. It’s an organized crime syndicate. It’s a frat party. It’s a Klan rally. It’s the modern-day Spanish inquisition. But it’s no longer a legitimate political party.

UBI saves a ton of public money, but its lack of cruelty sends certain people into a rage, so it’s hard to put into practice.
