I can't believe that it came down to a judge telling Trump he couldn't starve 40 million Americans.

I don't know why. This entire year has been one long march to the bottom and beyond.

It wasn't fake. It was edited. But Reagan really did spend a five-minute speech – an April 25, 1987, national radio address that the Reagan Library has published on YouTube – to rail against tariffs. It was a full-throated expression of support for free and fair trade.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

Apparently there is a review process for historical buildings like this, but it isn't mandatory. Past presidents respected it, but this one respects nothing. Now that we've had a criminal president, all of these loopholes need to be closed.
