This is Sweeper. His human couldn't be with him on his 10th adoptaversary. They planned ahead and got their friends to take him out to lunch, who were more than happy to make sure Sweeper still felt celebrated. 14/10 #SeniorPupSaturday

My quote of the day Defend an institution. Follow the courts or the media, or a court or a newspaper. Do not speak of 'our institutions' unless you are making them yours by acting on their behalf. Institutions don't protect themselves. Timothy Snyder

Senator Van Hollen cannot be any more clear as to what this is all about. It’s about the rule of law. Period. Not the whims of an authoritarian or our feelings toward any individual. If you allow it to be dismissed for even one person. Any person. You risk suffering the same fate.

Last night at the Governor’s Residence, we experienced an attack not just on our family, but on the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This kind of violence has become far too common in our society, and it has to stop.

The chickens haven't really come home to roost yet (everything is about to double in price, tourists will no longer come to the U.S., much worse unintended consequences we don't have the imagination to conceive of) and people fucking hate this shit, generally loathe what's going on. Go on offense.

Reddit is flooded with small businesses owners getting crushed by tariffs — devastated by the thought of raising prices, firing workers, or closing up shop entirely.

Trump’s view on trade deficits is like getting mad at Target because you spend money there but they never buy anything from you. It’s just complete brain dead nonsense.

My husband and I run a game store and after all the tariff announcements, he decided to write out kind of a "behind the scenes" of how we spend and spill it out for people who don't understand. He's had so many reactions and shares I wanted to bring it here, too.

“When McKinley, most famously, put tariffs on in 1890, they lost 50% of their seats in the next election,” Rand Paul said. “When Smoot and Hawley put on their tariff in the early 1930s, we lost the House and the Senate for 60 years. So they’re not only bad economically, they’re bad politically.”
