Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.
No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

This is terrifying
WTF America? Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.
They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

To the person who honked at me because I was driving the speed limit and then signaled and slowed down to turn, I hope you feel better. I also hope your heart attack is excruciatingly painful.

Donald Trump has disgraced the United States of America in countless ways since he first entered political life ten years ago.
But he had never disgraced the nation as badly as he did today.
He has brought shame on this country to an extent I had never thought possible. And he has only just begun.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

The combination Cincinnati didn’t think we needed (or wanted) is here, and it’s pretty good! Vanilla base with cinnamon, a hint of (I think) allspice, maybe a teeny bit of cumin and/or chili powder, and oyster crackers!

Apparently, since my grandfather was born in Europe, that provides me with some of the qualifications to move to Europe, but I need to speak the language. Anybody know if #duolingo teaches Hungarian?

And—in particular—don’t be silent for the sake of being polite. We’re not taking about politics in the ordinary sense anymore. This is about decency and morality and whether or not this country chooses to become a thoroughly criminalized state instead of an imperfect representative democracy.
You can't shame MAGA. It's impossible to shame shameless people. I go on and debate them, trust me. They will make excuses for and glorify Musk's Nazi salute and Trump pardoning violent insurrectionists. But remember there's a world out there - and the majority opposes it. Be loud. Don't be silent.

We must heed his warning.
We have to stand up and fight.

I’m on a new medication that is proving to help me immensely. My doctor told me insurance will deny coverage and he’ll have to fight it - because he’s been through this before with this med. Why is #healthinsurance this way? We deserve better.
