From Abby’s Bakery in Los Fresnos to the Australian MMA coach to the El Salvador gulag, we see the cruelty, stupidity & lawlessness of Trump’s war on immigrants. The immigration issue can’t be ducked. It’s the beating heart of Trumpism. Confronting Trumpism means defending immigrants & immigration.

In this Ohio diner, recession still means the thing that happens to your gums after years of Snus and Mountain Dew. But they do know this: Any economic hardship is worth it as long as whatever happens to Blacks and Hispanics is even worse.

I pitched my NYT editor that folks really need to understand that the deadweight loss of tariffs rises in the square of the tariff rate. Despite the wonkiness of it all, they said yes--as long as you can explain that intuitively. Lemme know how I did:

Keep a receipt of all the law firms, corporations, wealthy celebs and pundits who bent the knee to Trump in the past 2 months thinking his reign would be absolute and for many years. Those who chose cowardice and threw us all under the bus for profit and self preservation.

In the month+ since Jeff Bezos announced the WaPo editorial page would be advocating for “personal liberties and free markets,” there have been troubling resignations, at least one (Ann Telnaes) b/c of being silenced. But as of today, no real signs of substantive change.

I don't need or want people to suffer to feel great again because I'm not a sociopath. I want people to succeed and have financial stability and happiness for their families. But... Finding it hard to feel bad for all the wealthy folks who told me, "Eh, Trump won't be that bad. It won't hurt me."
