Trump’s tariffs haven’t even collected enough money to pay for the kind of payout the president promised.

Media has become an endless river of oligarchic monopoly money. trib.al/8hb71XG
Public constraint has largely evaporated, and that doesn’t mean the system has been handed over to “the market.” Today, 40% of all local TV news stations are under the control of the 3 largest broadcast conglomerates.

Cheney expressed no regrets about the Iraq War, even after it plunged the U.S. into debt, killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, and destabilized Iraq so much that ISIS was able to gain a foothold
