Trump says tariffs will pay for the $5,000 checks. But tariffs have brought in about $140 billion extra so far, against a $1.2 trillion promise. That covers roughly eleven cents per dollar. The rest just gets borrowed. newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/i-promise-...

I Promise I'm Good for It
So does the president. His check is $5,000, mine is $5,000, and so far the two of us have funded the exact same number of them.

Crazy idea: Spend money on supplies for our well-trained and modestly paid sailors, not on electric shock gloves for poorly trained and overpaid ICE agents.

Guess who the conservatives are now?
Sarah Longwell: Things conservatives told me when I was in my 20’s: 

*Character counts
*Crony capitalism is bad
*Russia is our enemy
*Tariffs are taxes
*The Constitution is sacrosanct
*Government power should be limited, restrained, and checked by congress. 

Guess they were just joking.

A good example of why we need answers about strategy: We're destroying refineries and oil production. If the goal is to immiserate the Iranians and cut off their income, fine. (Not great thinking, but understandable.) But if it's regime change...uh, they're gonna need that rebuilt. So why do that?

Donald Trump increases the defense budget last year from $874 billion to $1 trillion. He says he wants $1.5 trillion this year. Now he wants $50 billion more for his Iran War. Every Democrat should be screaming about the military budget, not cutting deals to keep raising it.
