Trump & Bros invest millions on the dip. Trump pauses tariffs for 90 days. Stocks surge. Now we get the tariff play.

Moskowitz: He tariffed the penguins. He tariffed Vietnam. Madagascar. I don’t know what the plan is. Is the plan to get people who live in Vietnam to move to Greenland to make the shirts there? Nobody really knows.

Trump’s Tariffs would be held illegal if the Constitution’s separation of powers were taken seriously. Hell, they’d be struck down by Trump’s Supreme Court if its Major Questions Doctrine and its commitments to original meaning and textualism were consistently applied to Article I and IEEPA. 🔥

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

We will not survive unless people stop lying about the severity of the threat and about the rot of our institutions. As I wrote in HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT, "You feel haunted by the alternative America that could have existed had people told the truth."

Trump’s first 100 days are going to go down in history as the most disastrous of any presidency anywhere at any time. And yet, the dumbasses raised on Fox News, Rush Limbaugh and Joe Rogan won’t even know how bad things are because they don’t read, watch or listen to reality, ever.

THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A “TRADE DEFICIT”—IT’S JUST CALLED “BUYING THINGS.” YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

Actually, no “strong-arming,” was required at all, was it?. You didn’t wait for an executive order. You didn’t join with your fellow lawyers in fighting back. You didn’t stand on any principle. You embraced your ignominy. You pathetic Vichy flunkies. charliesykes.substack.com/p/the-quisli...

This is the most openly corrupt act by a sitting President in the history of America. It is now 4.40 PM - and Politico, WaPo and NYT are simply refusing to cover it. NYT wrote 35 articles speculating on the POSSIBLE corruption of Clinton Foundation. Which was never found.
