As much as I dislike the Republican Party, we don’t have to stoop to their level of violence. Disappointing it’s getting to this level. We can do better and we can be better than this.

Breaking News: Donald Trump just ordered a 90-day pause on new tariffs—except for China, where he’s jacking up tariffs on their goods to 125% after Beijing hiked its own tariffs. Don’t be fooled, folks—this isn’t some genius plan.

I don't think it's being talked about enough that Trump is basing his tariff assaults on Peter Navarro, and Navaro's theories rest on the "research" of "Ron Varo" which is an economist he made up and cited for decades: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oP-e...

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.
It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.
