Question: If foreign countries are paying the tariffs, why is Costco joining dozens of other companies demanding millions of dollars in refunds over Trump’s tariffs?

All strikes have been murder. ICE detention of people who died, murder. US aid money taken from DOGE, murder. CDC vaccine changes, murder. Cut SNAP food could be too. Cutting ACA will kill. J6! Trump is a gangster murdering President sanctioned by Justice John Roberts+5neocons.
Better angels?🤞🏽🇺🇸

It has been since January.
This story sums up Trump: No need for evidence. No need for laws or treaties. No need for discussions. If Trump decides (based upon whatever random information or maybe just heartburn) that someone is in the wrong, he believes he has the right to kill them.

The US is now a rogue nation.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Donald Trump posted like 500 times to Truth Social over the past 12 hours… he could be doing literally anything else for this country, instead he is posting an unhinged rant on a far-right social media platform most Americans have never heard of

This man is unwell.

"the issue isn’t that we need more 'boy-friendly' reforms. It’s that boys are socialized to compete only with boys and to read girls’ success as illegitimate or emasculating. The result is dissonance, resentment, and disengagement for boys—and hostile climates for girls."

On this day in 1955 Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat. For 381 days people boycotted the buses. They walked, carpooled and organized every single day until segregation cracked. Nothing will change today without that same resolve. Freedom isn’t granted, it's taken one step at a time. #Resist
