Nearly half of all cars sold in the U.S. are assembled abroad — and most have foreign components. Here are the makes and models that would be most affected by President Trump's auto tariffs.

The Tax Foundation estimates that the f*ckwit felon's tariffs could knock the US GDP by roughly 0.7% & cost about 500k US jobs. The stable genius will obliterate our economy that under Biden was called the envy of the world. It'll be yet another Trumptastrophe. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Nothing says "unleashing American energy" like trying to ban American clean energy. Trump is hellbent on taking us backward and forcing us to use dirty, dangerous fossil fuels even if it hurts the economy and destroys the planet.

So, Trump wants to impose 25% tariffs on all imported cars. So what does that mean? Cars made by manufacturers headquartered in the U.S. (even if they are largely manufactured out of the country)? Cars made of parts primarily manufactured in the US (even if they have a foreign brand name)?

In some respects, the fact that the Trump admin is focusing so much on the legal community is a sign of weakness. Rather than cowering, the legal community should recognize the admin’s weaknesses & fight back—forcefully & collectively. Our piece explains how: www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/lawyers-ne...

Why have Musk-backed PACs spent $10M on the Wisconsin Supreme Court race? It's not just to uphold WI's abortion ban and gerrymandered maps. Tesla is suing WI over a state law that hurts its bottom line — a case that could be decided by its Supreme Court. Follow the money.

A federal court’s jurisdiction does not stop at the water’s edge. The question is whether the defendants are subject to the court order, not where the conduct being challenged takes place. Were it otherwise, the government could act lawlessly overseas and courts would be powerless to stop it.
