As someone in the AEC industry, I'd add that ppl often think "seek out evidence" means "follow the $ w/out understanding the $." Seen (just saw 1) viral reels & even articles outraged over others' standard projects, falsely crying fraud/corruption... sim to DOGE. Seek understanding 1st, too.

Trade deficit. I have bought food from say, Chilis. They have never bought food from me. There is a trade deficit with Chilis. I’m still doing fine. The trade deficit argument SOUNDS compelling, but it’s a straw man with no relevancy

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.

This is a corporate attempt to put an end to climate protest and particularly to Indigenous led climate protest. Massive 1A assault. Pretty shocking that our little outlet was one of maybe 3 or 4 that had a reporter there every day of the trial (one of the others was a fake newspaper 🙃)
