Good morning. It's now 12:01 AM. The largest US tariff hike in a century has officially gone into effect—25% on Mexican imports, 25% on Canadian imports (except energy at 10%), & now 20% on Chinese imports. Canadian retaliation on $21B in US exports has also just gone into effect

A tariff is a TAX. The company pays it — then passes along the cost as a price increase to YOU. So Donald Trump is raising YOUR taxes 25%.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

After Biden was elected, Stephen Miller started the America First Legal Foundation. The foundation’s sole purpose was to file litigation against the Biden administration claiming executive overreach. They filed their cases in district courts. Because that’s how the court system works

Ralph Norman of SC and Keith Self of TX bent the knee and switched their votes to Mike Johnson on the second vote. I’ve been saying this for so long…there aren’t any republicans with a backbone. President Elon Musk and VP Trump will get every bill they want passed. They have full control.

Let's voice a huge shout-out of gratitude to America's allies for the patience and wisdom shown in the midst of uncertainty, abuse, and chaos. Canada, Mexico, the entirety of Europe, Ukraine, and so many more, display patience like saints. Their example can help steer us through the storm.

I talk about Pete Buttigieg a lot because he gives me hope in situations that don’t generally afford us such luxuries. Similarly, though, I’m a huge fan of Texas’ James Talarico, particularly on issues of faith and government. Here, though, he explains the scam of school vouchers. One to watch.
