In a free society, no one should be subjected to legal repercussions for simply disagreeing with people in power. The ability to disagree with the policies of our government is so critical that it is the cornerstone of the First Amendment and the very existence of liberal democracy.

Trump's shameful behavior towards President Zelensky and his surrender to Putin makes Neville Chamberlain look like a strong leader.
I am ashamed to have such a stupid, doddering fool and coward as my President.

Be careful of any "leftist" who spends their time criticizing liberals and not conservatives. They are likely authoritarians and are not actually interested in positive change.
They want power and are happy to carry water for the fascists to get it.
Remember, Stalin was Hitler's ally. 1/

Blaming Democrats for being constrained by reality is like attacking a fireman because you burned your own house down and they weren't able to stop it

Imagine being such a clueless idiot that you'd vote for someone promising massive cuts to government and then be surprised when your government employee husband gets canned

Placing tariffs on the things American companies need to get in order to manufacture goods is one of the most idiotic ways to destroy a strong economy

Some perspective from a mail carrier. Yes, that's my day job.
There's been a thing called a de minimis exemption for customs duties. Any shipment worth less than $800 qualifies. The latest round of tariffs from the Mango Mussolini killed that exemption.
That's almost certainly the cause.
