Trump says his 25 percent tariffs on all Canadian and Mexican goods will begin next week.
Reminder: tariffs aren't paid by other countries.

This is an INCREDIBLY serious story for Washington, DC.

Congress, do your fucking job.
Trump is not the head of a Unitary Executive. He is the head of one of 3 coequal branches. If you don't exercise your constitutional obligation to hold him in check, then what the hell are you there for?

While everyone is focused on what DOGE is doing, Elon Musk is quietly spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on an April Wisconsin Supreme Court race.
This race could have electoral consequences in future elections, like 2028 in a crucial swing state.
