In the fight to save democracy, T-Mobile has chosen the wrong side: It’s hosting Trump Mobile on its network, is partnering with Elon Musk’s Starlink, and it lobbied in favor of Trump’s deadly budget bill. T-Mobile has also engaged in years of union busting.

They don't even pretend to try anymore. Reality is in their rearview mirror and fading rapidly into the distance. $8 trillion from tariffs? In, what, a month? Total U.S. imports for all of last year were only $3.3 trillion (source: Paul Krugman). The Ministry of Truth would do a spit-take.
