Folks, please understand: if there was a single forecast that showed higher gdp because of the tariffs, I’d put it out. But there isn’t one. Not even from the White House.

Yes, it is a cult -- an apocalyptic, End Times cult. If Trump told them to line up and drink poison, they would do it live on Fox. And they would be smiling. Watch my talk with @wajali.bsky.social:

Just checked in on Fox News. A shrimper in South Carolina saying he will endure the short term “pain” so his industry came make a comeback. OK, I’m down for SC shrimp vs imported from China, but you know you can just levy tariffs on the product. JFC people.

Harris Faulkner's Fox News show has been on for 20 minutes now. She has not mentioned tariffs or stocks once and a stock ticker isn't being displayed. Strong state media vibes.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

The thing about watching a JD Vance speech is that everyone knows he’s a little pig man. Everyone knows he exists to squeal for Trump‘s amusement. No one respects him and he clearly doesn’t respect himself.

I repeat. If you’re a police officer in America and you think you need to wear a mask to do your job, you shouldn’t be a police officer in America. This is happening. This is insane. This is wrong.

Saying a judge granting a TRO on your obviously unconstitutional attack on a law firm is "treason" is seriously fucked up. In any other time, with any other President, this would be blasted all over the headlines and people would be asking about impeachment/25th Amendment. But... here? Now? Nothing

One day he’s telling us that tariffs are amazing because they will bring lots of new jobs to the US and raise so much money we won’t have to pay income tax, then the next day he’s telling us we aren’t doing them because people were nice to him on the phone.
