Tough language from JPMorgan tonight: “.. we view the full implementation of these policies as a substantial macro economic shock not currently incorporated in our forecasts. .. these policies, if sustained, would likely push the US and global economy into recession this year.”

I remain completely flabbergasted that the basic legality of this move is not foregrounded in the debate.

Trump has just launched the economic equivalent of the Iraq War. fallows.substack.com/p/launching-... By me.

It's getting a lot of attn today. But even before today most of the country had very little idea of what has happened at NIH or through it the entire ecosystem of biomedical research in the US. Simply put, Musk, Kennedy & Trump exploded a bomb right in the middle of cancer cure research in the US.

The Trump administration called it an “administrative error.” But that error led to a nightmare for Maryland Resident Abrego Garcia.

Musk has been given more power over the federal government than any other private individual since the founding. This is the world that the Supreme Court’s campaign-finance deregulation efforts have created.

President Trump has named former GOP Rep. Anthony D’Esposito as the Labor Department’s inspector general. This is him 👇 A Congressman Had an Affair. Then He Put His Lover on the Payroll.

In one low-income Phoenix ZIP code, ProPublica estimates that only one voucher was used per 100 kids. That’s compared to a wealthy ZIP code where an estimated 28 vouchers were used per 100 kids. (Published Oct. 2024)

In all of the big news today, don't overlook today's PA voting rights victory. This would have resulted in 10,000 more votes being counted in 2022 and 5,000 in 2024. Republicans have fought us at every turn to throw out these votes. But today we won for our clients--DSCC and DCCC--and PA voters.

This is exactly what his campaign tariff policy promised. He was promising to destroy the market & the economy. But most campaign reporters didn’t comprehend that.

Omair Sharif of Inflation Insights, on Trump’s auto tariffs:

GOP Rep. Bacon: "We made a mistake. We passed legislation that gave the president some temporary tariff authorities. I think we should look back and maybe restore the power back from Congress and take away the authorizations."

Still in awe over this comment: Steve Witkoff to Tucker Carlson, related to Witkoff's meeting with Putin, as Witkoff and Putin talked re war in Ukraine. No Hollywood director would propose such a scene. As Putin tries to soften US posture by offering Trump a "beautiful portrait" & supposed prayers
