Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

If you aren’t yet clear on the motive behind the tariffs & purposely tanking the economy, read this 🧵
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.
1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

“And if the courts surrender now, the people will lose their last line of defense against an administration that wields Article II like a cheat code to subvert democracy.” @dahlialithwick.bsky.social and @mjsdc.bsky.social at Slate
We’ve Officially Entered the Next Phase of Trump’s Dictatorship Era
Taken together, these actions and declarations amount to a significant escalation in Trump’s transformation of his own presidency into an autocracy.

Extraordinary scenes in Serbia’s capital Belgrade right now.
Around 500,000 people are on the streets in what may be the biggest protest in Serbian history. All demanding the resignation of President Vučić & his government.
What began as a student protest is now a full democratic uprising.

Vote No on Cloture &GOP Spending Bill. GOP stuck language in bill that gives Trump permission to continue taking away money already approved for Fed Agencies. The bill gives power of appropriations to potus. This will make half the court cases, many we are winning against this administration, moot.

Read this🧵, he sums up exactly what we are dealing with in this new, once-called Dept of Justice that should be renamed. I’ll leave it to the Pope Hat @kenwhite.bsky.social to come up with the appropriate name, and I’m certain it will not include the word “justice”
Sometimes a group of lawyers can come to be regarded almost universally as crooks. Anyone remember Prenda Law, the group of porn-uploading copyright trolls who ran an extortionate scam? Rather quickly they were regarded across the national legal community as crooks and widely distrusted.

Judge Alsup just now, on Ezell's evasion: "The government has tried to frustrate the judge’s ability to get at the truth of what happened here. It set forth a sham declaration, then withdrew it, then substituted another. That’s not the way it works in the U.S. District Court."

@mollymckew.bsky.social describes this moment in a terrifyingly real way. Must read, if for nothing else to feel validated and not insane. It really IS happening to US. If we don’t start screaming out loud together, we’re done. Just like the pickled egg, barfed into the trash.
