Just so I am keeping everything straight…the government can’t tell you to wear a mask because FREEDOM!!!!, but it can decide you are a “terrorist” and send you to a foreign gulag without due process and throw away the key.
That right?
That right?

The idea that tariffs will bring manufacturing jobs back:
Building a factory takes long term planning & 3-5yrs to complete.
By then we will have a new President with their own agenda or Trump may back off of these sooner.
Why would a CEO make a massive investment like that w/so many unknowns?

Okay Bluesky...here we come!

When your MAGA uncle wonders why Trump is threatening tariffs and raising the prices of everything, after he repeatedly promised to do the opposite, look him straight in the eye and gently whisper:
"It was never about you...and now he doesn't need you anymore"

The problem with pieces like this, which are countless, is the prevailing media assumption that left-of-center Americans need constant corrective instruction about how to be in and engage with the world, whereas right-of-center Americans are simply to be observed in awe, like rainbows or mountains.
Opinion - The problem with Bluesky: It won’t broaden our horizons: In the wake of Donald Trump’s election win, the social-media platform has enjoyed a surge of new users looking for an alternative to Elon Musk’s X. But will it be useful, if it just creates an echo chamber for the left?

I personally believe everyone who isn't following @hunterw.bsky.social is doing themselves a disservice.
Not only is he an incredible reporter, but he was also here making Bluesky cool before any of us showed up.
Definitely give him a follow!
