ICYMI — “I identified myself as a U.S. citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. ICE Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas and pepper spray into my car, dragged me out… this experience violated the very principles I fought to defend.”

Higher education is a full-dollar export.
Weird for a president consumed by the trade gap to go after it, hmmmm?

A hugely important point is that international students pay full tuition, so they actually make it CHEAPER for US students to attend college, by allowing for more money for scholarships. Across the board, the reality is we need MORE international students.
In which the New York Times repeats the claim -- without any pushback! —that international students are taking seats away from domestic students

I live in the real world.
Unlike mainstream media, I will not take a pathological liar at his word.
Or trust a career criminal to uphold our laws.
Or expect a notorious conman to do right by the people.
Or delude myself into thinking he’ll ever be anything but what he is.

This is amazing. A road map for democrats. And yes, this is about reforming the Dem party, not abandoning it. “We wanted to rebuild a coalition that had frayed over years of disappointment and neglect. To win people back to a Democratic Party that puts working people first.” Here’s how:
This @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social video is absolutely INCREDIBLE. The numbers he cites, the strategy and results they produced — it’s the future. When have you heard *any* campaign talk about this, ever? (Video split in 2 to fit in Bluesky’s limits)

Hundreds of dangerous felons who brutally beat police officers with impunity were then pardoned by the President on his first day in office.

So he raised the tariffs, paused that raise, paused that pause, then paused that pause of the pause. And no-one knows if it'll be paused again (and if such a pause will be unpaused) or what happens when (or if) the pause whose pause was paused concludes.
A brief history of US tariffs on the EU...
Recent decades: Mostly low and stable
April 2: 20%
April 9: 10% during a 90 day pause
May 23 (day 44 of the pause): 50% from June 1
May 25: Back to 10%, reinstating the original pause
July 9 (end of 90 day pause): ???
Inauguration Day, 2029: ???
