The only relevant political point is that Republican members of Congress are all supporting these tariffs 100%. They could stop them at any moment. Each day is on them. Everyone with a messaging bullhorn needs to make that clear. They can pull the plug now or pay the price at the polls next year.

If Stephen is tired of immigrants telling him he looks like a penis, it’s because native born citizens don’t say it enough.
As a native born American citizen, I can confirm that he not only looks like but is, in fact, a dick with ears.

This fencing event was the cherry blossom open that takes place every year in Maryland. It’s an OPEN, meaning folks fence off against everyone of all ages and it’s not divided by gender. My brother made a grown woman cry at this event one year when he fenced her.

@schumer.senate.gov We need @corybooker.com to be senate leader. Chuck is too old and too scared to do anything.
Let’s hope what we’re thanking @CoryBooker for is a total reset of the Democratic Party.
We must not continue to do business as usual & hope the Republicans snap out of it to become a center right party focused on forging consensus & moments of comity.
ITS BEEN 15 F’n YEARS!
