I cannot believe there are still people in my mentions arguing that boycotting an election because the candidates aren’t addressing your issue is a way to get them to pay attention.

The Senate has voted to end the national emergency that President Trump declared to impose tariffs on imports from Canada.
Senate votes to block tariffs on Canada
While symbolic, it is the Senate’s second rebuke of Trump’s trade policies in as many days.

In WP Kinsella’s “The Iowa Baseball Confederacy” two perfectly-matched teams play a single game for 40 days and nights, more than 2,000 innings, even as biblical rain squalls threaten to flood their town. Reminded of this book for some reason tonight #BlueJays en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Iow...

Trump rewarded Changpeng Zhao, a business partner who boosted his crypto venture, with a pardon for crimes that Zhao pleaded guilty to.

Q: On the pardon of Changpeng Zhao, Binance has significant business interests with World Liberty Financial, the president family's crypto company. How do you respond to criticisms that this is a corrupt act?
LEAVITT: I would respond and say the president is exercising his constitutional authority

Do we really have such abysmal collective memory that we need to be *told* that the right has a history of censoring free speech? Have we really swallowed so much reactionary-centrist bullshit about "cancel culture" that we've forgotten that primal political truth?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Not one member of the crack presidential press corps pauses to ask why Trump was employing an underage girl at his spa.
Trump: People were taken out of the spa, hired by Epstein… I told him we don’t want you taking our people, whether it’s spa or not spa. He did it again, I said out of here.
Reporter: Was one of the stolen people Virginia Giuffre?
Trump: I think so. He stole her.
