So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

Imagine the hubris that goes into saying that you are going to reset global trade and just pull the plug on the entire economy. These fools are making shit up and have no idea what they are doing or even why. But don't worry. They went long ages ago.
Trump’s cabinet can’t get their tariff story straight—They don’t agree with each other on what Trump’s plan is, but somehow we’re all stuck with the fallout.
It’s clear they didn’t see this coming.

Who will they cut? The number federal employees has not changed since 1950’s (according to BLS data). Most people working in the “Government” are private contractors who cost more than federal employees with overhead etc. But congressional republicans always preferred private over government.

Steve Davis, Elon Musk’s trusted ally, is now leading cost-cutting efforts at DOGE, a Trump initiative to reduce $2T in federal spending. Known for helping Musk slash Twitter’s workforce by 90% and finding $3,900 fixes for $120K parts, critics worry DOGE’s methods could harm vital public programs.

"He needs a clip for the internet."
It's obvious to the journalists at CNN that Scott Jennings does not engage in a lot of discussion in good faith.
So why has leadership made him a core part of the network's programming?

This is a highly questionable omission by @nytimes.com.
This article tells readers that exit polls show 40% favor mass deportations.
It doesn't include the fact that the same exit polls find 56% favor path to legalization.
