I wish we lived in a land where if journalists heard the president call one of their colleges "piggy" or suggest another of their colleagues, who was butchered for what he wrote, in some way had it coming, they would close their laptops, leave as soon as possible, and ask to be reassigned.

A reminder: Tariffs are a regressive tax. The anti-Robin Hood.
Trump's current tariff settings effectively impose a tax rate on low-income households that's roughly TRIPLE that on high-income folks. That's not the way taxes are supposed to work.

I just keep wondering, are there any honest politicians in the country anymore.
Remember that time (last Friday) Gov Hochul approved 2 fracked gas projects—a cryptomine at Seneca Lake and an underwater pipeline by Staten Island—that had been denied permits?
Turns out…

Companies should be required to explain why they can’t pay living wages, and why taxpayers need to subsidize their profits when they force their employees to rely on SNAP.

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

Time to get back to what really matters:
Wow! We might finally have a government resembling democracy again here in Utah. Still no separation of church and state though.
Here is the breakdown on the new Utah maps:
District 1: D +10
District 2: R =12
District 3: R + 19
District 4: R + 14
Currently, there are 6 Democrats that have filed to run across all 4 districts, but most will be switching districts in the next day or two.
More expected to announce this week.

The newly approved map gives Democrats a much stronger chance to flip a seat in a state that has not had a Democrat in Congress since early 2021.
