Mockler: Maybe the most humiliating thing I've ever seen for the United States. Donald Trump is returning our country to a pre constitutional order where you can give gifts and receive gifts from other countries/companies, and he gives them things in return.

I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

The mistake that this President keeps making is failing to understand that cooperation with the rest of the world is a key ingredient in the international competitiveness of American manufacturing. Destroy that cooperation and you destroy American competitiveness and jobs.

Step 1. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country
Step 2. When markets crash, pause those tariffs and say they're just leverage for deals
Step 3. Promise deals
Step 4. Fail to make deals
Step 5. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country
...and yes, I find it hard to keep my cool, sometimes.

The GOP "Big Beautiful" budget achieved its goal: tax breaks for billionaires like Elon Musk. How did they afford it? By slashing benefits, gutting social programs, and raising taxes on the working class. Call (202) 224-3121 to tell your Rep this bill is bullshit.

If Trump is serious about tariffs on movies, it's a very dangerous escalation. Tariffs have not traditionally been applied to services, and the United States is a massive net exporter of services. We would be extremely vulnerable to any service-based retaliation.
Trump says movies produced outside the U.S. are a national security threat. So he’s imposing a 100% tariff on all movies that are “produced in foreign lands.”

So… this was supposed to be about Paul Revere’s ride, but the Senator just unloaded about the Trump administration and its Republican enablers. Far more newsworthy than I expected. (You can probably see me shifting to “crap, this was not the interview I prepped!” but the result was memorable.)

I started weaving on rigid heddles 2 yrs ago and recently bought this floor loom. I've been rather intimidated by it, but this is my fourth project on it and I'm feeling a little more comfortable. :) i love weaving on it but the warping is rather a pain.
