So now Kevin Hassett will go on TV again and smile while telling us how the terrible inflation numbers are actually great news for everyone and how we are really winning even though we keep having to pay more for everything because of stupid tariffs and an even dumber war.

Excellent piece by @jamellebouie.net
Rank-and-file Democrats — and, I’d wager, a substantial portion of the voting public — do not want compromise and cooperation. They want accountability. And if we hope to confine Trumpism to the ash-heap of history, then accountability is the only choice there is to make.

depending on the future trajectory of debt spending, “debt would grow to between 124% of GDP and 133% of GDP” ..as high at 8.8% of GDP (!!!)...Trump may want to direct his wrath at the Fed when it comes to interest rates, but he should try looking in the mirror.

The question is what we are going to do about it. Will we try to hide and hope it doesn’t affect us? Or will we stand tall, and act? It starts with fighting in court and speaking out. Also with voting this November.

And this is why the founders erected a wall between church and state: Because they were traditional conservatives (aka classical liberals) and they didn't want churches to become the state. Thank you for reaffirming my point, even if you didn't understand it
