The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board tears apart Trump’s tariffs in a blistering editorial:
“The President is right that his tariffs are at work—in destroying U.S. jobs and raising prices. The U.S. has lost some 75,000 manufacturing jobs since January 2025, including 25,900 in motor vehicle and parts production...
there’s no question his tariffs are raising costs for U.S. manufacturers.…Mr. Trump and his advisers claim that foreigners pay his border taxes, but the evidence shows that U.S. companies, workers and consumers are picking up most of the tab.
The Anderson Economic Group estimates that auto tariffs on Canada and Mexico alone added about $1,600 to the cost of each car made in the U.S. last year. While auto makers absorbed some of the Trump tariff costs, they also passed on a large share to customers…Call it the Trump tax.”
The Sioux are what early French fur traders called the Lakota.
So, what this orange turd is basically saying is that we Lakota stole the land from ourselves.
Tucker Carlson goes nuclear on Trump: "It's such a betrayal. How could you betray us? It's the betrayal that make it so bitter for people like me. In the end it's all about crypto scams and wars for Israel. Hiding the Epstein stuff, yelling at anyone who asks questions about Butler. I'm outraged that someone I supported would betray the country and his own voters. You are disloyal. You sold out the country."
Trump just dropped the charges against another crypto scammer behind a $722 MILLION Ponzi scheme.
This guy was guilty as fuck, and the case was about to go to trial. But I guess he put enough money in Trump’s pocket to stay out of jail.
Not surprising. Still infuriating.
After demanding that the hosts be fired, the Trump administration is now threatening to take away ABC broadcast licenses because Trump doesn’t like its talk show, The View.
Mr. President: this is not a dictatorship. In a democracy, you cannot shut down media outlets just because they are critical of you.
@SteveLovesAmmo Just sayin: Germany has a capitalist economy based largely on private ownership, private enterprise, and markets. However, it also has a strong welfare state and regulations designed to promote social protection and economic stability. Kinda what the Democrats want!
Don’t hire a weekend news co-anchor to run the military. Don’t hire two dumb podcasters to run the FBI. Don’t hire a tough-guy cosplaying plumber to run DHS. Don’t hire a decaying felon pedophile to run the country.
It’s not hard to see how far we’ve fallen so fast.
An outrageous attack on press freedom.
The Trump administration subpoenaed several New York Times reporters Friday after the paper reported on security concerns surrounding Trump’s new Qatari-donated Air Force One.
Federal agents showed up at the reporters’ homes to serve the subpoenas.
What has America become?
It must be a different Bible in Texas. Gov. Abbot makes it compulsory for children to learn the teachings of Jesus, and then vetoes a bill to feed the poor.🤦♂️🤷
The Republican Party has a pedophile problem.
Yes, some Democrats are pedophiles, too, but the GOP makes up the overwhelming majority. And it's not even close.
We exist in a society where the same people who believe a man built a boat big enough for two of every animal in the world don't believe in climate science because it’s “unproven.”
If it turns out Mitch McConnell is dead and the GOP are involved in a coverup to prevent a special election that is mandated by Kentucky law, people need to go to prison.
Full stop.
The Housing Bill is now law today despite no signature from Trump. I don’t think he realized we don’t need his signature after 10 days. Now he can never take credit for actions to lower costs. Let’s make sure all Americans know he opposed actions to lower housing costs.
