Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The decades-long outsourcing of domestic manufacturing to China was not an insidious Chinese conspiracy for dominance but the greedy strategy of the American ruling class to explode its profit margins by exploiting global inequality.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

A grand total of none. If there were, King Braggart would have already declared it a national holiday in his honor.

Republicans in Congress can repeal every tariff tomorrow and take Trump’s tariff authority away from him. But they choose not to. So every Republican in Congress owns EVERY SINGLE BIT of this. You can’t hide from the voters forever.

“Is he just dumb or is he owned by someone who wants to destroy America?” is a less-than-ideal binary question to have to ask of the person leading your country.

Hey, at least the guy who singlehandedly cut your 401K in half overnight isn’t spending the weekend enriching himself and the funders of 9/11 at a golf tournament…
Oh wait.

ALA is deeply concerned by reports that IMLS is sending notices to libraries claiming to cancel grants that are required by law. This harmful action will disrupt libraries' ability to serve their communities.

Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency has repeatedly posted error-filled data, inflating its success. But after news reports called out those mistakes, the group obscured some details. Here are some errors the The New York Times was still able to detect. nyti.ms/3RbGujW

Let’s get something clear. The GOP has the power to keep the government from shutting down in March. They control both chambers of Congress and the White House. If they can’t reach a budget deal within their own ranks, that completely on them.
Dems: Don’t lift a finger to help them. Not one.

So, trump is jacking up the prices on Americans with his idiotic 25% tariffs that CONSUMERS pay, but hey, at least you got to openly show your hate of immigrants and got Black History Month, Women's Month, and Pride Month events canceled, so there's that.
Hateful jackasses.

Scoop: As Fox News has blasted D.E.I. on air, in job listings it professed to be "deeply committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion." When I asked Fox about its on-air rhetoric being at odds with its stated goals, the network scrubbed the D.E.I. language from its site. link.status.news/42zAKHI

Get ready. Trump is going to fire most of the VA workforce, 70% of which are Veterans, then to "fix" the problems he created, he's going to privatize the VA and send our veterans to expensive, shitty corporate health mills after he slashes health benefits so he and his buddies can get richer.
