If your Democratic congressperson sounds anywhere near this disconnected from reality, PRIMARY THEM.
As a party, we are prisoners being held hostage by people who simply refuse to accept that their time has passed and won’t accept that others more capable right now. Stay in the Senate, but step down from leadership. It’s time for a new approach, a new face, & a new voice.

The message being sent here is clear: "The federal government will protect the elite at all costs." While we do not agree with Mangione's actions, make no mistake that if the victim had been a divisional sales manager at UHC, and that was the only difference, federal prosecutors would not intervene.

Here is a great read on the pros and cons of tariffs.
While the UWP is now and always on the side of the US worker and growing jobs domestically, we should also use prudent, validated economic strategies when it comes to foreign trade.
While the UWP is now and always on the side of the US worker and growing jobs domestically, we should also use prudent, validated economic strategies when it comes to foreign trade.
Can tariffs be a good thing?
In a day-after-the-election briefing to a group of business executives on what the trade policy of a second Trump presidency might look like, the question was asked, “What would an example of a good tariff be?” The answer is the same one that the 16th century Swiss physician and alchemist Paracelsus gave about dosages of medicine—given in moderation and for the right purpose, they can help heal. Given in excess, they become a poison.

Wouldn't it be "more efficient" to not be a garbage person to save money on security?
