"So it's not that they won't be subject to tariffs geared at reshoring, they'll just be under a different regime. It's shifting from one bucket of tariffs to a different bucket of potential tariffs." -U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer on the electronics tariffs

This is disgusting. Someone set fire to Shapiro’s home while he and his family were sleeping. I hope this person is caught quickly and held accountable to the fullest extent of the law.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

AOC: Donald Trump is a criminal—convicted on 34 felony counts of fraud. He is lying, and he is manipulating the stock market too. At his best, he enriches himself, the billionaires who back him, and the members of Congress who trade with him. Not you. Not me. Not the people.

RFK Jr's always going on about "healthy" and what he means is a mixture of nihilism and eugenics, that public health and medicine are pointless because "unhealthy" people are going to (and deserve to) die anyway. Never mind the kid's death was easily preventable. Call them "unhealthy" and move on.

DOGE is failing on its own terms, which were already misleading. The numbers they toss out don't account for the effects of the cuts. The deep cuts to the IRS alone cost $1.6T over 10 years via reduced revenue. Cuts to research like NSF and NOAA will cost even more. www.cbpp.org/blog/on-tax-....

Trump has been trying to bully Maine Governor Janet Mills. A fight he is not winning. Her unwillingness to back down, similar to Boston Mayor @wutrain.bsky.social, is a lesson that could be well learned by some universities and law firms in our midst. 1/ www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/12/s...
