Freeland: Anyone who needs to fill their car up with gas is going to be hit. You are going to be putting tariffs, a tax on the oil and gas and electricity that we sell you. Totally absurd.

Why did the U.S. vote with Russia and against our allies?

A some point you do have to start to wonder, “what’s in it for Trump?” Trump seems totally fine with Russia winning and the U.S. losing. Why is he so hard up to serve Putin?

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

President Trump said “he who saves his country does not violate any law.“ He echoes Napoleon, who became a dictator through an internal coup in 1799 that overturned the French democracy.

Still wild to me that so many "savvy" folks on left and right have bought into the idea that online misinformation is overblown and doesn't really matter. From lies about migrants to transgender people to crime to election denial to climate denial, it's literally driving our country's politics.
