Time to head to Costco for some coffee beans.
It's good that there's a 25% tarriff on imported coffee now. This will incentivize people to purchase American coffee, grown in the New Jersey coffee forests

I’ve been wondering this as well. 🤔
Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

Does everyone do this? To find my favorite accounts from other platforms, I look up an account I respect— like @politicsgirl.bsky.social or @rbreich.bsky.social , etc.— and click on their “following”. Everyone’s there! Way better than lists—vetted and so easy.

Since Congress and the Supreme Court wants to ban TikTok because it's owned by a Chinese-company, then they should also ban Twitter for being owned by an apartheid loving South African.

I will never understand how my fellow Americans decided they wanted this again. 💔
