I’m going to put my rich guy hat on and say I hope that Mexico and Canada issue equal, retaliatory tariffs and stick to them for an extended period.

I apologize to all the people it will cost money and the businesses it will hurt.

But it’s the only way for tariffs to be seen for what they are

And the student loans companies. They are just giving money to everyone. Wipe those debts and teach them a lesson.

Trump last July: These guys are the radical Right - Project 2025 - I don’t know what the hell it is. They read some of the things in that and it’s some pretty extreme stuff. But I don’t know anything about it.

I live in New York City in the year 2025.

The president is a convicted felon.
The mayor of NYC is an indicted felon.
The secretary of defense is a Fox News host.
The secretary of transportation is a Fox News host.

The very worst people in America are in charge of America.

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

I generally agree with this, but I would just say that you need to swing at a few more pitches than you have been and you need to swing sooner. Taking pitches until the count is 0-2, and then swinging late at a slider in the dirt isn’t going to get it done.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

This is advice every dem politician should take to heart.

Don’t sell against the competition.

Sell what you are doing to reduce people’s stress and make their life better

It’s not about what’s wrong with the competition. It’s about what is right with you
I found that the best way to build a business is to build a relationship with your customers ask how they are doing, how are the kids , how did their dad’s surgery go, show interest in them and mean it because they know what they want

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

I think it already is.

But seriously. Don’t call them names. We want the door open for them when they realize the mistake they made.

Wenn ein Kanzlerkandidat so viel Hybris hat, dass er seine eigene Agenda so unbedingt durchsetzen möchte, dass er dafür auch rechtsextreme Hilfe annehmen würde, dann ist
1. seine Idee nicht demokratisch mehrheitsfähig und
2. der Vorschlag rechtsextrem.

What I’m curious about re the whole Colombia thing is simple.

1. Were the deportees in shackles when sent on the first flights to Colombia

2. Will they be in shackles for future flights

It appears everything else is exactly the same.

Anyone know ?

If leading Dems support her and Reps don't, that's viral and plays everywhere. Her voters see who is standing up for them. And it's not Reps.

Go there and talk to her constituents. Listen to them. Offer to help. Make them feel heard and appreciated

That's how you change hearts and minds
Why? She’s still Red no matter who supports her. She’s a Trumper so let them do their dirty deeds. This is what she stands for and this is what she knew he would do and I’m going to bet she doesn’t vote against any of the evil things he plans to do.
