New tariff just dropped. Americans set to pay an additional 10% tax on all goods from Germany, the UK, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Finland. It starts in two weeks, rising to 25% by June. (Aside: A trade war with one EU country is a trade war with the entire EU).

Where were our Democratic leaders Saturday?! I heard Bernie and Pritsker. Where was everyone else? Am I uninformed or am I right to feel incredibly unsupported?

I will not be watching The Next Level again. On last night’s podcast they sneeringly made their feelings known about the retired women and men who loyally attend the rallies. They are quite smugly AGEIST! Racism, sexism and gay bashing are a no no but it’s fine to make fun of old people evidently.

D.C.’s violent crime is at a 30-year low. The population is diverse: 45% Black, 40% white, 11% Hispanic. Trump’s response? Send troops and spread lies to distract from Epstein’s mess. Classic authoritarian gaslighting. #Epstein #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Saw a post that a woman received a letter from her mother’s nursing home that she would have to be out by August since she is totally paid through Medicaid. I thought it was illegal to evict nursing home patients. Was that another hidden surprise in Rump’s bill?

The contrast and absurdity is so brazen. They're literally raiding Home Depots to find whatever guys are there to get work as day laborers. People eager for work. And the ICE agents has zero idea who they are or any criminal background.

Trump is so enamored with dictators and ignorant about history that he actually thinks Germans were upset at the beginning of the end of the Nazi Party. To Trump, Hitler and Nazi’s are to be admired. And he aspires to be an American Hitler. Trump’s comment was both ignorant and insulting #ProudBlue
