Can we dispense with the fiction that Trump is earnestly trying to bring back American manufacturing now? He's just a pudding brain who is doing this for narcissistic and corruption-based reasons. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/the-trump-...

I'm not ever sure which side we are on in this war.

L - The official photo from the Kremlin of US Special Envoy @SteveWitkoff putting his hand over his heart as he greets his friend Vladimir Putin again this week. R - Putin’s latest missile attack killing at least 21 people, including 7 children, on Palm Sunday. Putin’s stooge.

He can kill USAID, he can kill NATO, he can get the Tates out of Romanian custody, but he can't get an innocent prisoner out of El Salvador.

Maher's cordial interview is as dangerous as Walsh says. Trump has done a long list of things that are irredeemably wrong and evil. No pleasant conversation can change that. When will everyone see this?

this is quite the photo and caption www.nytimes.com/2025/04/12/u...

Trump updating his tariff plans.

Imagine picking THIS case to declare the President to be the King. The case where you admitted you were wrong, yet you insist on extending your cruelty.

100% chance that a bunch of 2nd tier global law firms are seriously considering doing a deal with the Trump Administration just for the prestige of it. Just to have their name mentioned in the same EEOC announcements as the top tier firms.

It's mind-boggling that Trumpism, which has abandoned many Republican principles, has won over 75 million voters, AND every single piece of Republican infrastructure including pillars of conservatism like the Heritage Foundation, Federalist Society and US Chamber. No resistance whatsoever.>

It's hard to believe this is happening. There's no reason why he limits this to law firms that bothered him. He can just do it to anyone at any time.

I absolutely want Abrego Garcia to be brought home. But if there has to be a defining moment when the Trump Administration declared itself unencumbered by the rulings of the Supreme Court, "The Abrego Garcia Incident" would be a worthy moniker for the historic turn of events.
