Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do.
As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

August 11, 2017 - white nationalists march the lawn with tiki torches, no police intervention May 4, 2024 - students protest israel's ongoing genocide of palestine, riot police beat and arrest protesters it's not about the protesting, it's what we're protesting
Hundreds of self-proclaimed white nationalists holding lit tiki torches gather around the statue of Thomas Jefferson in front of the Rotunda at the University of Virginia. August 11, 2017.Police in riot gear hold riot shields in formation between the Rotunda and Chapel at the University of Virginia as they prepare to push anti-genocide protesters into the street after University President Jim Ryan authorized the Virginia State Police to beat and arrest UVa students, faculty, and staff who were protesting Israel's ongoing genocide of Palestine in an encampment on the Grounds of the University of Virginia.

Anyway, Klein and Stewart's portrayal of BEAD as a COMPLETELY worthless boondoggle was quickly picked up by right wing media, which has been trying to make this same case for years in part because they want to redirect the money to elon musk. So nice job there, I guess.
