Well, it's Tuesday, and Trump has plunged the entire continent into a senseless trade war between close allies for no coherent reason.
Make no mistake: these tariffs are a Trump Tax on everything YOU purchase.
A true economic disaster—and it's genuinely all Trump's fault.

They showed no grace; no magnanimity of spirit; no diplomatic acumen. They were small bullies with big titles and they disrespected the history and legacy of the nation they lead.
Today, Donald Trump acted more like Russia's Putin than America's President.

Gaza, trans athletes, budget fights…none of that matters if Musk & his cronies have full access to the Treasury & data. Unilaterally culling a federally funded agency (USAID) w 💰 appropriated by Congress proves they’re operating outside the law. Pair that with the data they now control—that’s it.

A federal judge has just ordered Musk to get out of Treasury’s computers. We are fortunate there are good lawyers representing democracy. Normally that would end the matter, but in this era there are legit questions about compliance & enforcement. We live on the edge of a constitutional crisis.
