This is open white-supremacist fear-mongering, just a reminder to boycott anything tied to Elon Musk.
This is unchecked white fear, amplified by an influencer.
Some of us who look white have done harder work: facing our history honestly.
I can hope my sons won’t bear the weight of centuries — that others will resist what my ancestors, & others’, did not.
But I do not expect that hope to be owed.

Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactions… and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What they’re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJ’s redactions—not the original FBI redactions. They’re in blatant violation of the law.

Trump claimed the power to unleash a tariff war by declaring a “national emergency.” This is clearly a false predicate.
The tariff power lies with Congress per the Constitution. Trump’s invocation of an “emergency” in order to punish countries whose leaders don’t grovel is utterly ridiculous.

Trump: "So I put on a 30% tariff, which is very low. I got an emergency call from I believe the prime minister of Switzerland. She was very aggressive ... I didn't really like the way she talked to us, so instead of giving her a reduction, I raised it to 39%."

Everyone knows China’s #1 foreign policy objective is eliminating Canadian hockey
Trump, in the middle of his latest unhinged Truth Social screed, claims that if Canada makes a trade deal with China, "the first thing China will do is terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup."
