The conversation about how many pardons he's made and whether or not they are warranted obscures the fact that the pardon power is being used corruptly. Meanwhile, he is detaining many thousands of innocent people. Its about having absolute power, not about the fairness of incarceration.

Tariffs were always about him trying to be in control. He has no clue what any of this means or what the impacts of these decisions are. Nor does he care because he's never had to deal with economic reality in his life. The mythology of Trump's economic prowess is the biggest fraud of all time.

Illuminating perspective on the culture of racialized othering of people—the connection to the fall of Constantinople and the flimsiness of race science, the white man as protagonist.

watch RFK hustle out of there. Doesn't want to be seen in the same frame.

They will also need to rely on low propensity trump voters to meet those numbers, without Trump on the ballot.
