Sometimes you throw out the filter. And it’s still so beautiful. And she’s honestly my favorite Roman portrait (📸 by me at the Saint Louis Art Museum).

Guess where they got their weird trade deficit math from?

Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.

Can’t get over how great this is. People who say they don’t understand what we want Dems to do: do this. Make them sound as dumb as they are, attack, don’t use caveats or hedge, stand up for the people you say you protect, act fucking mad.
