Russian lawmakers will soon consider a bill that would let the government seize property from citizens living abroad who are convicted of misdemeanors such as spreading "disinformation" about the Russian army, State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin said. meduza.io/en/news/2025...

Casar: "I've knocked on 1000s of doors and not a single time has someone said, 'Thank God you're here. I want to ask about trans people fencing'..what the hell are we doing? We are here bc MTG thinks if she picks on trans folks, she can avoid having a discussion about allegations of insider trading"

Through all his troubles, neither the DOJ/FBI nor any state authorities ever subjected Donald Trump to arrest, preferring in every case to proceed by indictment and voluntary surrender. It’s notable that a sitting judge and pillar of the Milwaukee community was not extended the same courtesy.

Trump and his oligarch enablers provoked me to investigate what US big tech I could swap out of my life. Can highly recommend translation app DeepL and the charmingly named map app HereWeGo.

This is Day 82 of Trump's presidency and I now appreciate why many companies give new employees a 90 day probationary period. If an employee really sucks at his job in the first 90 days, the company can easily get rid of him.

Much of media is reporting that Trump has paused tariff increases on every country - except China. But Trump increased tariffs on every country - by 10% - and on China by > 100%. (Though Canada/Mexico hikes came earlier). The real exception is Russia: No tariff rise (Belarus, Cuba, North Korea)

Rand Paul: "The whole [tariffs] debate is so fundamentally backwards & upside down. It's based on a fallacy & the fallacy is this: that somehow in a trade, someone must lose. That somehow when you trade with someone, someone is taking advantage of you... I have a trade deficit with my grocery store"

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

it’s weird that we’re staring down the second unprecedented economic catastrophe in five years and instead of a novel coronavirus that will go on to kill millions of people this one is just “no one was willing to tell him no”

Absolutely remarkable. A full-blown conspiracy theorist - 9/11 as inside job - in charge. “President Trump fired six National Security Council officials after an extraordinary meeting in the Oval Office with the far-right activist Laura Loomer.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/u...

This is really something. Tariffs, being easy to enforce, probably have a much greater impact than sanctions.

Could I please ask the press to stop reporting Trump’s rather arbitrary numbers of the tariffs other countries impose as though this were real? The WTO has a tariff database. You can look up the real numbers there.
