One of the things I learned writing a book about global trade is that thing you got delivered next day started its journey months ago in China or SE Asia. A few months from now you will see an explosion of stories about empty shelves. It’s going to blow people’s minds.

All seven managers at DOJ’s voting rights section removed. All cases dropped. No explanations. No meetings. No pretense. This isn’t governance. It’s strategic dismantling.

I see the already historically unpopular president is exploring how to get the military invovled in “assisting” local law enforcement just a few weeks before the real shortages caused by his inept economic policy start hitting. Probably nothing to worry about.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation "It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

I've encountered a few people arguing that tariffs are good, actually, because they will force us to consume less and while I think our consumer culture is problematic in many ways, I don't think things such as 'food' and 'medical supplies' fall under the category of unnecessary purchases.

People are NOT understanding what empty cargo ships from China means. It means no work for dock workers. No work for truck drivers, no work for retailers, fewer dollars circulating. The cascade effect is just mind boggling.

University leaders need to understand: they are holding INCREDIBLY good cards. It is so rare in today's polarized era to have the support of 70+ percent of the public against the Trump admiministration on anything. Universities have that—AND winning legal arguments.

I'm an amateur shipping nerd working at a trade publication but there are definitely going to be shortages based on significantly lower sea freight volumes and fewer orders for imported items from China to the US for both back-to-school and the holiday season

6 weeks ago today, planes flew a few hundred people to El Salvador, where they’re being held at CECOT — a place from which Salvadoran officials brag no one is ever released — at US expense. Their continued detention there is our continued shame.

Youth turnout in 2024 was only down 3% from 2020. What killed us is that young voters shifted right by double digits, caused by far-right youth groups outspending us nearly 10:1. If we want to avoid that in 2026, left-leaning youth organizations need to be better funded.

Multiple street trees were hacked down in #DTLA over the weekend. Someone out there knows who did it too. CALL your city COUNCILMEMBER and @mayorofla and make sure there is a full investigation so we can catch this a$$hole and prosecute them to the full extent of the law. #losangeles #ecocide #lorax

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

Wouldn't it be nice if every news outlet that covered the Bukele Oval Office meeting noted: District court wrote: Abrego Garcia "has never been charged with or convicted of any crime."⤵️ Fourth Circuit: The government presented "NO EVIDENCE" of MS-13 affiliation. Abandoned argument before court. ⤵️
