Any student of history will tell you this is an extremely dangerous moment. People like Trump who make wild threats to do insane homicidal things again and again are full of shit—until they aren’t. All the safeguards are gone and we really are on the razor’s edge here of total historic disaster.

As someone who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it), let me tell you something: The lies Trump, Vance and Miller say are not meant to be believed by their followers. They are meant to be REPEATED. The repetition of the lie is the test of loyalty to the cult.

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power. The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

A little like when Trump wanted to just stop testing for Covid because there was too much Covid and so he wanted to just suppress the numbers.

In Bell, CA an entire community stood up against ICE, including the local police and the fire dept. The fire truck appears to not allow ICE vehicles to move forward nor remain and pushes forward to escort them out. A police car also helped with escorting. /

A two-panel meme using a cartoon flower character. In the top panel, the flower is angrily yelling, with the caption: "WHEN A BAKER IS ASKED TO MAKE A CAKE FOR A GAY COUPLE." In the bottom panel, the same flower is smiling calmly, with the caption: "WHEN PEOPLE ARE BLACK BAGGED AND SENT TO A CONCENTRATION CAMP IN EL SALVADOR." The meme contrasts public outrage over LGBTQ+ rights with apathy toward human rights abuses.

The US Constitution gives Congress the sole power to impose tariffs. Trump is using the National Emergencies Act (and the IEEPA) to bypass Congress to levy tariffs. All Congress has to do is pass a bill denying this explicit emergency power to levy tariffs to Trump and all of this goes away.

Trump says he'll offset the tariff price increases by lowering taxes. But we all know he'll lower taxes more for the rich. The thing is, tariffs are essentially a consumption tax and are paid by WORKING PEOPLE buying goods. So…when the dust settles on all this, guess who will suffer most?

Trump is privately warning CEOs of automakers not to hike prices when his tariffs hit. This blows up Trump's lies about the tariffs, because it shows he knows they'll push up costs in the US, and knows "other countries" don't pay them! New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1933...

Trump Accidentally Wrecks His Own Tariff Spin in Leaked Call Stunner

In a call with auto CEOs, the president warned them against raising prices. Isn’t that an admission that his argument for tariffs is bogus?
