Host: Nike is saying they're going to take a hit of about $1 billion because of the tariffs that they're going to need to offset with higher prices. Adidas, a $230 million hit, will have to raise prices. Walmart has warned of looming price increases. Ford is going to take at least a $3 billion hit

A fun reminder that a loss of 60,000 jobs in and around academia is ~50% more than all coal mining jobs in the entire country.

Abject cruelty! Afghans who fled here, many with our help, after our withdrawal in 2021, are being deported back by Trump to face Taliban rule. This is just disgusting! Shame on people supporting his man!

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

A tremendous crowd in New York City for the March against Trump, musk, and MAGA. So many people, the demonstrators can barely move.
