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%."

But see, you could be happy because you have those hobbies, passions, and relationships to find happiness in, and money just makes that easier.
Wealth just makes you more of who you are. Elon Musk is, at heart, a miserable person

If a university student group had celebrated Charlie Kirk being killed, complete with a graphic made from an actual picture of the killing, the whole lot of them would have been expelled before the ink on the digital story was dry.
University of Illinois college republicans advocate for executing protesters as “traitors” with art that takes a disturbing killing and makes it even more extreme.

In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law.

Here’s some things that can be done by a party out of power
- file impeachment articles every day in the House
- withhold unanimous consent in the senate and filibuster every nominee
- be everywhere with comms saying this is lawless and impeachable

The Government is The Mob Now, part who even remembers anymore
How long until Maduro is pardoned in exchange for American companies' access to Venezuelan oil fields?
A reminder: just weeks ago, Trump pardoned a former Honduran president who was convicted in the U.S. of drug trafficking and sentenced to 45 years in prison.

What the fuck. Trump is claiming the U.S. military captured a sitting head of state in his own country, with no extradition process & no legal authority.
No matter what you think of Maduro, that’s absolutely insane behavior—and a precedent that should alarm anyone who cares about international law.

Doesn't really matter if Maduro was behind half the shit Miller & Co believe he did/does. This is illegal and all Western governments should call it into question. This Admin's guiding national strategy document marked European democracies as their enemies for not confirming to their policies.

Whatever happens now, we absolutely cannot allow Trump's refusal to seek Congressional authorization for what appears to be a large scale military attack on another country vanish from the media discussion, which already appears to be happening.

I think one of the things that people are going to have to get comfortable with is, while Bush, Reagan, etc. had polices & stances you likely VERY much disagreed with. I certainly do!
But the country is best served when there are two well-functioning parties that disagree but can co-exist.

When you're told behind closed doors "We're keeping the government closed to protect Trump", this isn't what they meant
Tom Emmer: "Most of these senators are scared to death that if they vote to reopen the govt, the insane, I would argue, the people that frankly fantasize about the assassination of our great president, that they will turn on them. They're doing this for the smallest group of ppl, the most violent"

Trump's move "is a pure attack on Congress & consequently, on the rule of law. It reduces Congress to a single, negative power: the right to not appropriate any money. Anything they do grant the executive might end up being spent on anything. Welcome to England, circa 1615." *Way* beyond impoundment

Look as someone who grew up adjacent to the substance abuse space in roughly the same geographic area and time period as JD Vance I'm telling ya right now there weren't no Mexicans involved
JD VANCE: "My mother got the drugs that almost killed her from Mexicans."
REALITY: JD's mother got the drugs that almost killed her from her hospital patients, whom she stole from.
