Jessica: Before this deal, we essentially were paying 1% on imports with the EU. 15% is more than 1%. I wish Gasparino was sitting here to explain to Jesse how tariffs work because it is a tax on the consumer.

Fox News’ depiction of the LA protests is a grim fantasy — one that encourages Trump to realize his vision of U.S. troops crushing left-wing dissent.

A reminder that you could levy a 50% tax on the 50 wealthiest people in the world, redistribute the resulting revenue to functionally eliminate global poverty, and most of those 50 people would *still* be the wealthiest in the world.

Poverty and externalised costs are a policy choice.

First, they came for Oscar—just a grouch, no one cried.
Then Cookie Monster—too messy, too much.
One by one, they vanished.

Worst two-day stock market crashes in the U.S. by percentage loss:

1. 1929 (the Great Depression)

2. 1987 (Black Monday)

3. 2008 (the Great Recession)

4. YESTERDAY AND TODAY

And while this happened, the man responsible for it was golfing and dining with enemies of America.

The bloodbaths at IMLS (Institute of Museum and Library Services) and NEH (National Endowment for the Humanities) show that Musk's DOGE has NOTHING TO DO WITH SAVING $.

IMLS budget: $295M

NEH budget: $211M

These are tiny drops in the federal spending bucket.

This is about ideological control.
Graph showing the FY24 federal budget:

Dept of Defence: $841B
NIH: $47B
NSF: $9B
IMLS: $0.3B
NEH: $0.2B
