I am all in on saving 500% or 1,500% on things. Also making drugs cheaper by making cars more expensive is brilliant.

By now, we've all seen the video of Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) being forcibly removed and handcuffed for asking a question during Kristi Noem's press conference. But what Noem said just moments before the video was taken is "classic authoritarian red-baiting," points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

In an extraordinary on-air rebuke, one of the top journalists at “60 Minutes” directly criticized the program’s parent company, Paramount, in the final moments of its Sunday night CBS telecast, its first episode since the program’s executive producer, Bill Owens, announced his intention to resign.

I fully understand the Trump logic for tariffs on trade with an island with no human population. The penguins are well dressed and likely will not retaliate with trade sanctions of their own. Downside however is that Trump will not see a $ in tax revenue from these birds.

11/ The tariffs aren’t economic policy. They are political weapons. But as long as we see this clearly, we can stop him. Public mobilization is working. Today, a few Republicans joined Democrats to vote against one set of tariffs. The people still have the power.
