Trump's hissy fit about Canada is going to cause MORE American businesses to lose markets-just like soybean farmers and cattle ranchers-and therefore costs will rise AGAIN
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

The crowd of protesters is standing peacefully, chanting "neo nazis" as ICE marches by

When the agents stop and attack a blind man with a cane

Thus proving the demonstrators point
Watch this.

Open your eyes to this brutality.

ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.

Now share this.

Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.

You have power.

Even sharing this video exerts that power.

Spotify is playing recruitment ads for ICE. I love the app and listen for many hours every month. But I canceled it and told them why. When my subscription is up I'll be deleting the app.

YouTube is doing the same. Additionally it's showing ads by Kristi Noem threatening Immigrants. They're next.

You don’t even know what to say about ICE anymore, because no words seem to accurately describe the depths of their depravity

If Republicans in Congress are too terrified to let Jack Smith testify, then Gavin Newsom should get the California legislature to do it

He’s already made public statements and issued a public report, so it shouldn’t be a problem

You can just imagine Trump’s social media explosion if this happens
🇺🇸 I don't want to overstate this, but any testimony from Jack Smith into Trump's attack on America would be a bombshell that would rock this country.
It is vital we know what led to Jan. 6, and Trump's part in it.
One way or the other, this MUST come out, and I salute Smith for coming forward.

WE MUST step up our game. I said this before the #PedoInChief sat his fat orange ass behind the Resolute Desk. Democrats need to do the following. I’m going to give you the “cliff notes” version of this article here.

Some Democrats have shown real heroism. But as a party they are disunited, ineffective, seemingly afraid of their shadows.

What would an opposition party strategy look like if the Democrats were bold and united? Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/if-democrats-got-off-their-asses
