Exactly. Everything Trump does is nonsensical BS.
Here's my forecast of where the Trump tariff war will end up: He'll negotiate outcomes that are basically identical to the very low (and often zero) tariffs we already have. And declare that he's managed to negotiate low tariffs. Perhaps a political win, but definitely no economic gain.

We all know what’s going on here at this point. The President is not going to stop until he is stopped once and for all by the federal courts.

In defense of Ukraine, please support the wonderful folks at Saint Javelin. Quality products made in Ukraine that are creative, cool and support the most worthy cause out there. ❤️🇺🇦🌻
3 years ago, when I started @saintjavelin, I had zero experience in clothing design, manufacturing, logistics.

Today, we launched the "DEFENDER" collection that is 100% made in Ukraine, and competes with outdoor clothing brands like Patagoina, Fjallraven, Arc'teryx.

Here's how we did it...

I am so heartened to attend my local Town Hall tonight hosted by Congressional Representative @repsuhas.bsky.social. He is truly a breath of fresh air, conducting a very respectful, civil and bipartisan discussion. It gave me hope that we can come together for a healthy successful American future! 🙏

America First—a complete lie. Silencing Voice of America is yet another way the Trump regime diminishes America and strengthens his authoritarian buddies.

BREAKING: Trump and Republicans say they’ll focus their efforts on defeating Native American candidate Deb Haaland, who is running for governor of New Mexico.

She has protected sacred lands and stood up to bullies. It’s obvious why they want her to lose.

Thanks to felon Trump’s all out assault on democracy, we are now on a civil rights loss warning list with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Italy, Pakistan & Serbia.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent.

“It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

“A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.”

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Not for nothing, but announcing that the US is taking over Gaza the same week you’re neutering the FBI’s entire counterterrorism program isn’t that smart from a security perspective.

Trump got Mexico to send the same 10,000 troops to the border that Biden already got them to commit.

Trump got Canada to agree to the same measures to fight fentanyl that Biden already got them to agree to six weeks ago.

Wow. What a dealmaker!

🔥 We need a Dem press conference at least twice a week, maybe more. And it needs to be held by the fighters in the party, like AOC, Jamie Raskin and Jasmine Crockett, just to name a few great examples.

Dems need to be continually reminded that you are fighting for us or we won’t win in 2026!
Today would be great day for our elected Dems to get off their asses and get loud. Your entire party is clamoring for you to stand the fuck up, gather the elected Dems and give the fiery pushback on this fucking incoming nazi administration. But you cant man up. You want bipartisanship. Fuck that.

Heads up! This Friday at 10:30 AM (ET) the House is voting on HR 21 ( Reproductive Health Care Surveillance Act)

Republicans are instead trying to insert themselves into family medical decisions and enforcing government monitoring of women’s pregnancies.

And—in particular—don’t be silent for the sake of being polite. We’re not taking about politics in the ordinary sense anymore. This is about decency and morality and whether or not this country chooses to become a thoroughly criminalized state instead of an imperfect representative democracy.
You can't shame MAGA. It's impossible to shame shameless people. I go on and debate them, trust me. They will make excuses for and glorify Musk's Nazi salute and Trump pardoning violent insurrectionists. But remember there's a world out there - and the majority opposes it. Be loud. Don't be silent.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
