UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Yeah. The administration’s position here, in almost so many words, is that the First Amendment doesn’t apply to noncitizens. (Which it absolutely does, to be clear.)

Precisely this. Congress could, if enough members chose, stop this madness right now with veto-proof majorities in both chambers, by retracting all delegation of tariff-imposing authority and restoring tariffs to what they were on January 19. All it would take is initiative and spine.
Good day to remember that a US President has no inherent power over tariffs whatsoever. It’s not like war powers or pardons. It’s entirely delegated by Congress to deal with emergencies. GOP Congress cld modify that law tonight and bring this to a screeching halt.
