Nebraska is going to get crushed between Tariffs and Medicaid cuts. They have to balance their state budget and it looks like at least a 200m shortfall this year. BEFORE tariff impacts.

Listen to how Trump describes Putin, who launched the bloodiest war in Europe since WW2:

“I've always had a good relationship with Putin. And you know, he wants to end the war…And I think he's going to be more generous than he has to be and that's pretty good. That means a lot of good things.”

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

"The core argument emerging in their legal filings and executive orders — one without support anywhere in the Constitution or the law — is that simply by being elected, Trump has the power to do whatever he wants."
Trump and his lawyers embrace the logic of dictatorship
And they're not even trying to hide it at this point.

A foreign-born private citizen with unfathomable wealth & deep financial ties to our nation’s adversaries has seized control of our government and is currently canceling congressionally apportioned spending without a shred of authority.

As a Canadian, 2 things are very clear today.

1. I’m VERY glad Canada & the United States are not the same country, and are in fact VERY different.

2. I will support the Political Party and potential Prime Minister in this year’s Canadian Federal Election that will best protect Canada from Trump.

If you haven’t watched this yet, please watch it. If you haven’t shared it yet, please share it.

Especially if you’re in the United States or Canada.

It’s REALLY important for AT LEAST two countries who are supposed to be allies. #Canada #USA #Tariffs
IMPORTANT: If you live in the United States or Canada, you’ve probably heard Trump‘s constant claim that the United States is “subsidizing” Canada. It’s wrong of course, but here’s the best explanation I’ve seen about how & why it’s wrong. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE IT A LOT. Kudos to Andrew Chang & CBC.
