That would be a moment in history MAGA tries to deny ever happened, in which six million died. The only people who don't think that's deplorable are the deniers.

May karma find them.

Trump claims nations pay tariffs--he's dead wrong. U.S. businesses pay the tariffs when goods arrive, NOT foreign governments.

AMERICAN COMPANIES & CONSUMERS PAY, not China or anyone else.

It’s a self-inflicted tax, & only a dumb fuck would brag it’s a win.

So how exactly do you pay a tariff? Here's a step-by-step breakdown
Businesses must decipher thousands of tariff codes and post $50,000 bonds.

Former Barack Obama aides Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor know exactly how to block Donald Trump from somehow getting a third term in office.

“Obama should run,” Vietor suggested on Tuesday. “We should mop the floor with this piece of shit. Run it back, sir.”

It’s a problem for the Pentagon chief that there’s evidence of his incompetence, abuses and failures, but it’s just as notable a problem that there are DOD insiders who are apparently willing to talk to reporters about his incompetence, abuses and failures. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Here's an intriguing fine detail: @premthakker.bsky.social reports that university officials have discovered that the Trump administration has been revoking not only visas but also the student "status" (based on, e.g., maintaining required course load) that universities usually control
SCOOP: The Trump admin appears to be going into a visa database to quietly change students' immigration status. It's coming entirely by surprise — setting students up to be detained without warning.

It's Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk — on a wider scale.

The president is asserting an unreviewable power to seize any person off the street and ship him to a dungeon abroad. Nobody can say this is an overreaction or alarmism or "TDS" when this is literally what the administration is doing right now.

By shipping men to a Salvadoran prison without due process, the Trump administration has begun defying court orders in earnest.

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.
