When I saw what Amazon was doing to my favorite bookstore. I stopped buying from them. Over 20+ years now. Shop independent and shop local.

If we are taking in “trillion” of dollars in tariffs:

1. Why haven’t we paid down a cent of the debt?

2. Why can’t we afford to not fuck millions of people over with expiring insurance subsidies?

3. Why is none of it being used to help the abysmal job market?

I was wrong, @rickperlstein.bsky.social. I didn't believe Trump could be that out of it. But here we are.

WSJ: President Trump believed his Truth Social post demanding prosecutions of James Comey and other political foes was a private message to his attorney general, and "and was surprised to learn it was public."

SCOTUS Created The Trump Dictatorship, Period

"As a political science scholar who studies presidential power, I believe Trump’s recent actions mark the culmination of the unitary executive theory, perhaps the most contentious and consequential constitutional theory of the past several decades."

Yup. Not one reporter challenges him or shows him video of Portland. They just broadcast his lies.

Which are then packaged and run relentlessly on outlets like FOX, where viewers believe all of this because they don't even bother to check.

A $10 million Medicaid settlement was quietly sent to the Hope Florida Foundation — a charity led by Casey DeSantis meant to help Floridians. But instead it was funneled into the coffers of a political com. to fight last year’s marijuana legalization effort.
