Not only is “Princess Awesome” an awesome case name for a lawsuit, but another named plaintiff is the company that publishes the superb board game Wingspan.
And hurrah for the cause itself, challenging Trump’s bogus claim of authority under IEEPA, a law that makes no mention of tariffs at all.

I love paying TurboTax a few hundred bucks every year to figure out how much money I owe the government, which the government already knows, but won't tell me because TurboTax pays legislators to keep the government from telling me. 😻

he wants to abolish the income tax and fund the government almost entirely through tariffs, thereby delivering the most regressive bonanza to the rich in the history of American taxation. He has said this many many times. He said it *at the announcement* and yet pieces like this just ignore it.

Senator Jim Banks (R) isn’t sorry he told a fired federal worker “he probably deserved it”.
He went on to say the worker was “complaining about losing a left-wing woke job in the federal government that should have never been a job to begin with”.
The job was helping people with disabilities.

Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."

Sorry Sen Hawley but you’ve been lied to. There’s no way to cut $880B from Medicaid without massive benefit cuts for millions of low-income Americans.
After a direct conversation with President Trump about Medicaid, Sen. Hawley voted to advance the Senate budget resolution. Trump told Hawley he will not sign a bill that cuts Medicaid benefits and that the bills will not cut Medicaid benefits

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.
