Remarkable: Fox News hosts are openly savaging Trump's tariffs. On the pod, @mattgertz.bsky.social is great on the deeper sources of Fox discontent. The plutocrats shouldn't have "preferred an insurrectionist to someone who might raise their taxes." Oops. Listen: newrepublic.com/article/1928...

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
