Incredible. The Trump administration calculated "tariff rates" by taking the US trade deficit with the respective country and dividing it by the country's exports to the US. And then the tariff rate of the US is often just set by cutting that made-up "tariff rate" in half.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity.

Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

Let me start by saying I don’t condone violence or what happened, but for the MAGA out there saying how disgusting it is that people are making Luigi some hero, I have three words for you…Kyle Fucking Rittenhouse. So sit this one out.

so the assassin turned out to be [rolls dice] a 26-year-old right-wing tech bro from [throws dart] an ultra-rich family in Maryland who hated [picks card] Jordan Peterson and loved to read [spins wheel] The Lorax, the autobiography of Steve-O and the Unabomber manifesto

Pete Hegseth now claims he didn't say the thing he said on camera a month ago

The incoming Trump administration is not sending their best. They’re sending people with big problems, and they’re bringing those problems to us. They’re rapists. They’re alcoholics. They’re criminals. And some, I assume, are good people 🤷🏽‍♀️

Good advice to everyone on BlueSky

So a reminder:

It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom.

It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president.

It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child.

For the record.
