the basic problem facing american democracy is that one party has decided it wants a king and will hand over as much authority as is necessary to make that happen
All but three House Republicans just voted for Trump's tariffs. The procedural measure, which preemptively surrenders congressional power to stop Trump's tariffs, passed with all Democrats voting no. This was the vote count:

So far looks like Columbia humiliated itself for nothing.
Exclusive: Weeks after President Donald Trump’s administration ordered NIH to pull $250 million in biomedical research grants to Columbia University, the agency is freezing all remaining grant money owed to the university until further notice. scim.ag/4if5Rg1
NIH freezes all research grants to Columbia University
Amid negotiations with Trump, the university could risk losing nearly $700 million

Isn’t Kristi Noem’s job a desk job.
The guy on her left has tattoos does this mean he’s going to El Salvador for a hair cut?
I know she’s responsible for homeland security, but does that mean she has to travel around locked & loaded?

All I keep thinking about is that if/when Dems regain power, every action to restore normality or basic functioning of governmental institutions will be covered by the national press like it’s a controversial, partisan power play on par with a coup.

A big reason why we’re here is Trump has long spoken like he honestly believes trade deficits are some sort of fee America pays and should retaliate against and most people in the media were like “he can’t actually mean that, that’s way too stupid” so they covered him like he meant something else.
I tried to simplify it to my kid like this: you buy something at the store for $50. Then Trump says that store stole $50 from you so he's going to tax the store $25. Store now charges $75.

To be clear, the destruction of the U.S. is the result of putting a deranged convicted felon who would fail a security clearance back in office instead of in jail and then allowing him to appoint a cabinet of unqualified criminal goons who would also fail a security clearance.
