Even if SCOTUS limited the IEEPA, Trump would surely find another legal way to impose taxes without asking Congress. Backup plans are slow, painful, and frustrating, but Trump’s ego thrives on chaos. Still, the Court might finally put a pebble in his shoe… for a while.

Hey everyone,
I see a LOT of people so furious at Dems they're registering as Independents.
I get it. I really do.
Just be aware that most states have closed primaries so you won't be able to vote in those. And as you smart folks know, primaries are critical to weed out wackos and bad bills.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.
