The message of Trump tariffs to Britain: no matter how good a friend you imagine yourself to be to the United States - your only security against the malignity of Trump is to belong to a big trading bloc that can impose painful retaliation against Trump's trade aggressions.

I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period. I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt. But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

"What’s more disturbing still is that Gabbard believes the intelligence community she’s been selected to lead has been working behind the scenes to destroy American democracy." Kind of like Robert Kennedy Jr. and HHS, Kash Patel and the FBI...

Were he alive, Albert Speer would be able to explain to you exactly what’s happening here better than anyone else.

Kash Patel has suggested that the FBI "planned" January 6, has portrayed violent rioters as victims of the justice system, and has openly questioned whether the pipe bomb outside the DNC was a "government ruse." One word for it all: disqualifying.

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

It's a good thing that the first you've likely heard of the Anglican Catholic Church is that it won't allow one of its priests to make serious-not-serious Nazi salutes.

You know, all the people who soiled their reputations working for Trump‘s first administration but aren’t working in his second have to be thinking right now, “Man, this buffoon is making us look really good by doing all the crazy shit we kept him from doing last time!”

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I'm strongly supporting Rep. Gerry Connolly's Saving the Civil Service Act to protect the people against Trump's hostile takeover of our civil service. Democracy can’t work without a civil service which operates on the basis of merit, not partisan control for private plunder.
