Trump’s people are going to say families will be better off with a 20% tariff because they’ll get tax cuts too.
But it’ll raise about as much revenue as extending the Trump tax cuts cost. And the net effect is everyone is worse off except the top 1%.

THIS is why due process matters. Because when ICE has to actually prove to an independent adjudicator whether someone is actually a member of a gang or not, they often fall flat on their face and judges are SHOCKED at how ramshackle and shoddy ICE's work on this stuff is.
They get it wrong a LOT!

Overdraft fees are extortion and usury.
They are a sign of the times.
Shame on you for voting in favor of this, and against your own constituents.
