Thank you for consistently grounding these debates in facts. The gap between rhetoric and reality on tariffs is staggering. The Trump regime have become a global emergency. People like you @maddow.bsky.social inspire us to make noise. We cannot remain silent. This is my very first post and substack:

Brilliantly said. This my 2 cents, in my very first Bluesky post and my first Substack. We cannot remain silent. This is no longer a US problem, this is a global problem.

History has a precedent for leaders who retreat underground while reality collapses above them. First there’s Bovino cosplaying as an SS commander, and now the Trumpenführer dreaming of his own Führerbunker. Predictable, textbook dictator crap.
