It’s time for Congress to reign in the Mad King. These tariffs haven’t even hit for real and the world is off the rails.

Donald Trump just illegally fired two independent commissioners at the FTC who fight big corporations that abuse consumers and workers.
Why? Trump's billionaire donors expect a return on their investment. He works for them, not you.
The courts must reinstate the commissioners.

Agree.
Obama and Biden may think they are honoring the office of the presidency by keeping quiet at a moment like this — if so that’s just preening vanity — they owe it to the office and to the Republic that until last month it served to speak up loudly and clearly and without relent.

The CDC was instrumental in eradicating smallpox, identifying the causes of HIV and encouraging Americans to get the COVID-19 shot.
