On-again-off-again tariffs are a nightmare for Republicans' massive tax give-away to the wealthy. Republicans are counting on huge tariff revenues to offset the deficit increase. But the way tariff "policy" is going, the CBO is unlikely to agree with a major increase in tariff revenue.

Are there 7 or more Republican members of the House who have secure seats and would be centrists on policy except for the fear of being primaried? Democratic National Committee could help them ward off a primary challenge if they support a centrist Speaker and a commitment to work across the aisle.

What do you want to call what Trump is doing to law firms? Extortion? A shakedown? Protection money? Whatever you call it, it's a crime. How does SCOTUS feel about their disastrous decision now?

Trump thinks our trade deficit enriches other countries. Forcing our scientists from NIH and universities to find work abroad will enrich those countries a thousand times more.

We need to ask why Trump is acting as an agent for Putin. Can it simply be grovelling for permission to build a hotel in Moscow?

Musk said a USAID employee earned a couple $100,000 and had $10 million in assets, asserting that was evidence of fraud. Did no reporter think to ask how Musk would know an employee's wealth?

I don't see why Trump agreed to change the venue for his inauguration. All he had to do is take a Sharpie and draw warm isotherms over the D.C. area.

Australia just barred everyone under age 16 from accessing social media. Maybe we should bar all registered voters instead?

Presumably people who voted for Trump either favor or are indifferent to: the conquest of Ukraine by Russia, 45 million people losing healthcare benefits, a million U.S. residents being deported, 20% price increases for many products, shredding the social safety net. What does that say about us?
