Not surprisingly, most of the U.S. tariffs are being paid by American companies and consumers — NOT by foreign exporters.

Republicans are going to be pissed when they discover that a Democratic president will be able to tear it down without consulting congress or the Parks service or anyone else.

If I were the rest of the world, I’d do my best to ignore the United States for the next 3 plus yrs. With this madman in the White House, the rest of the world can’t trust the United States. As long as this madman is in the White House, the United States is not a force for good.

Blaha rejects that logic entirely. He said Democrats who take such advice “aren’t bad people, but they’re getting bad guidance from consultants who say, ‘Don’t talk about trans rights; it’s not a winning issue.’ That’s disgusting to me. You don’t win by abandoning your values.”

Christopher Wiggins @cwnewser.bsky.social · 1d

“The trans woman sleeping in her car because she got fired deserves housing just as much as the single mom who can’t afford rent. These fights are part of the same struggle,” Dylan Blaha @dylanthomasblaha.bsky.social told me.

Pritzker on Fox: "He's challenging the integrity of the next election by sending troops into our cities. It isn't about fighting crime. He said he's going after the worst of the worst. That's not what they're doing. They are literally after black and brown people because of the color of their skin."

We need immigrants. It’s not that complicated. But the Democratic leadership doesn’t get it.

Radical idea: The next Dem nominee should run on making bribery actually illegal. In every way.

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.

New York has her back.

Grateful to Governor Hochul for bringing us together tonight.

FYI :“Destruction of federal property is a federal crime. 18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines the crime as willfully injuring or committing any depredation against U.S. government property. If the damage exceeds $1k it is a felony with a fine, up to ten years in prison or both.”

Awaiting law enforcement.

Generally speaking, it is not a good sign when reporters need to spend this much space explaining all the previous bad things you just did in order to contextualize the new, also-bad thing you did.

A progressive U.S. Senate candidate in Maine, who has already apologized for earlier misogynistic and racially insensitive remarks and said he did not realize that a tattoo on his chest resembled a Nazi SS emblem, is again under scrutiny, this time for anti-LGBTQ+ comments.
