So the US just hijacked an oil tanker and the president casually says “I guess we keep the oil”

Is this not just theft

You're in a car accident. So you call all the ERs from the ambulance and see who's offering a special. Hell, maybe you can ask hospital B to beat hospital A's price. It'll be like car dealerships. "How much can you spend a month, Randi?" "What will it take to get you into this ER today?"
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

The Trump administration plans to require all foreign tourists to provide their social media histories from the last five years to enter the country.

Yes, I said TOURISTS — not immigrants. This is insane. It will DECIMATE the U.S. tourism industry.
Foreign tourists could be required to disclose 5 years of social media histories under Trump administration plan
The Customs and Border Protection proposal would apply even to countries that don't require visas to enter.

Folks look at you like you're crazy when you say we're in the midst of the worst, most unprecedented Article I constitutional crisis in American history, & then it's a day, & the president is illegally monetizing the office & stealing the power of the purse. Again.

Calling the press “fake news” is harmful. Calling them “seditious, perhaps even treasonous” for publishing reporting is something else entirely. Treason is a capital crime. Suggesting journalists should face it for exercising their First Amendment rights and doing their jobs is dangerous.

Yes Americans famously love austerity, especially when it’s pitched to them by a guy who was currently building a gold leafed ball room
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

It is absolutely wild that the guy who won’t stop yelling about law and order is now personally stepping in to keep January 6 documents hidden from the police officers who were attacked that day. He knows exactly what’s in those files and he is terrified the country will see it.

Trump bankrupted the farmers through his idiotic tariffs and now he’s going to give them your tax money to make up for his abject stupidity.

Every real economist in America warned at the time he was imposing tariffs that it would affect each of these things, and deportations have affected the ability of farmers to access labor. This is all happening because of one man.

Donald Trump isn't interested in wielding his antitrust authority to protect the American people and preserve competition in our economy — he's using it to reward his allies.

It's all out on the open.
This is just how we do mergers now.

Can't remember if it was this bad before COVID but I'm seeing an alarming spreading of what I'll call Airport Behavior to other public places. Obliviousness to other people's existence, ineptitude at navigating the environment. "Is this your first time at the grocery store" type stuff

Perhaps what we need is a Constitutional Oversight Committee of Constitutional experts who stop all the abuses of power immediately.

No judges, Congress, or President gets to piss on the Constitution anymore. Regular people with deep knowledge of it monitor and track every unlawful action taken.

The salient part of Trump's latest dementia-driven tantrum is that he has, for at least the dozenth time, announced that gas has "just" hit $1.99/gallon

Since it's not true, he certainly could use a different lie. That he keeps repeating something old as breaking news - not good
